In 1969, man set foot on the moon for the first time. Neil Armstrong got this unique honour and Edwin (Buzz) Aldrin did it next. Neil Armstrong's famous words - A small step for me, a giant leap for mankind - became one of the most quoted line.

However, recent claims/rumours/debates state that the lunar landings never happened. The reason stated are:

NASA did not have the technology to do it
NASA could not have ensured the safety of astronauts to protect them from the radiation poisoning of the Van Allen belt
The shdows of photographs are not paralle
No blast craters visible under the lunar landing capsule
US Flag shows some flutter - not possible in the atmosphere-less/windless lunar surface
And since the Apollo 13 incidece, no attempt has ever been made to go back to the moon. Why not? Isn't there a smallest curiosity to go to the moon again?

Your thoughts please.

Too many questions un-answered. I also don't understand why the Soviets never tried to go there.

I had seen a documentary video questioning the lunar landing by Americans.
I wish I could share that video.

It said that the whole film(Armstrong walking on the moon surface) was shot in Area 74.
The video also questioned why the film was shot in black and white despite of the fact that color films had been invented by then.

They even highlighted the shadow of the ship which was due to light source other than sun.

Why Mr. Armstrong was never allowed to be interviewed??

There was much more in the documentary video which would definitely make you believe that there was surely something fishy...

My bad.

My greatest wondering has always been, "why no more attempts?".

JFK (the US president, not me, sorry

) wanted a man on the moon somehow before the turn of the decade. History was made (announced?) on July 20, 1969.

Was it real or most convenient, that is the question.

Are yaar kyon dho rahe ho States ki.
Its the biggest contribution for America.
NASA gives the following flaws for the disrupted black and white video.
1. There were no direct transmission machine with NaSA. So they took the video of the monitor which was showing their movements and that was shown to millions in States.
2. The camera with the lunar mission were black and white. Just like any satellite camera of those times would be.
3. The flag flutters were caused by Neils forceful handling. Because it wasnt a cotton or silken one.rather was a plastic flag.
4. Shadows showing such flaws was caused by the bipolarisation of the non advanced camera lenses of those times.
5. You got all your answers now keep quite. Or we will Ban you in the wto.(thats not written in their official menuscript how so.)

.......contribution of America to the World........
Well guys just after the Russians made the tours of Dogs and Gagarin in space. It was a do or die for the American guys to hold the prestigious post of "WHO IS THE BIGGEST SPACE EXPLORER". Jfk(not our j4k :tt2

billed the most pricey order of those times. And it was making the story of the most expensive travel tour of those times. He told engiees to work like dogs for hours and hours. After 6 months of terrible efforts they were able to create prototype of something which can vessle the human guys into space.than years later the Apolo was created. So these three guys were selected for the great travel to luna contest. That was keeping Americas name on stake. After Jfk's death The lunar mission was the life to States. The engiees dedicated their job to their lovely Prez who helped them see the dream and fulfill it. They created history. They did everything that was impossible. They did it. America was new emperor of Space. And the soviets can never do it. So it was a win win.

I think we did land on the moon. this is human species' greatest
achievement till now.

it hasn't been done since because of many reasons, the cost,
the cold war is over so US has nothing to prove to the Russians,
the rest of the countries don't have the technology etc.

All the complaints about the photo of the lunar landing have been
convincingly explained.

I am a skeptic but I think the Lunar landing was not a hoax.
