Now please - think about the Apollo mission and how the Americans got
ripped off...
TH
TH, please tell us all just how the Apollo {Manned}
Mission to the Moon and Back was a 'rip-off' . . .

one does wonder . . . ~ RHF
Usually I don't maintain threads about guns. I have more interest in the
Apollo program and did my personal kind of 'research' on that subject.
(Mainly reading articles, following links on the internet, watching
films on YouTube and so forth).
Than I discuss my findings in forums like this one.
About the moon landing I have found a lot of inconsistencies within the
pictures taken.
My conclusion is, that these pictures were faked - not even particularly
sophisticated.
Since You most certainly don't trust me, I give you an example. (Only
one)
Look at this picture
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ap...unar_orbit.jpg
It shows the lunar orbiter and the moon.
Since there is no other choice, the photo was obviously taken from the
landing module 'Eagle'.
But the term 'orbiter' refers to the orbit, this vehicle keeps, while
the lander lands.
Landing zone is usually below the orbit, hence the lander cannot take
photos from the orbiter with the moon in the back.
There are - of course - more anomalies within this single photo.
to name a few:
If the orbiter was such an elaborated piece of engineering and certainly
very expensive. Why does it look like a tin can,
Because it basically was a tin can. Weight is everything in space flight
(particularly back then) and so you kept everything at the minimum possible
weight. Thus the "tin can" appearance.
with something glued upon ? E.g. the lettering 'United States' misses half
of the 'A'.
Because it probably was. If you notice there are a row of little dimples or
bumps down the length of the module, and the decal is located over this row
of dimples/bumps.
If you look at the high res scan of it you can see this most clearly.

Now, on launch the craft is subjected to rather significant air flow and
turbulence. It seems quite probable that when the air pressure during launch
pressed against the decal it stretched it into those dimples/bumps and the
lettering (which was probably printed on) either flaked off, stretched out
of shape or otherwise became lost/distorted.
There are crosses, that should be all of the same size, but are not.
They aren't the same size. The center and I believe the outer corners were
oversized. The high res and uncropped photo link above.
The conic tip would reflect only the surface and possibly the lander.
Yep, so?
But we see something different, because there seem to be something
reflected, where darkness should be.
You did note that the module is in a NOSE DOWN attitude?
That's going to impact what is being reflected.
The contrast of the orbiter seems much higher than on the surface, but the
difference in luminosity should be greater on the surface (the surface
should have higher contrast).
That would depend on a number of items. Film, shutter speed, aperture, focal
length, Heck it might even, gasp, be a different camera. I mean you are
aware that they used a different camera on the surface than they did for the
one they used for the in orbit shots?
Indeed, consider for a second your own thoughts. Now would you get greater
contrast with a moderately lit object against a brightly lit background. Or
in an environment in which everything is subject to high illumination?
Keeping in mind you're going to have to change shutter speed and/or aperture
in order to keep from over exposing the film.
Some of the rivets look like painted. Anyhow, 'rivets' wouldn't be the
most durable joint.
Actually a riveted joint is quite durable. Look at all the bridges a 100+
years old that were riveted.
Further a rivet doesn't have the stress risers you find on a screw, and it
has a larger effective cross sectional area. That means more strength in a
lighter weight fastener. Remembering that every ounce matters.
This metal piece near the conic tip looks rusty (?).
If you mean the piece directly above the attitude jet. Yes, it does seem
discolored. Bet you would be discolored too if subjected to the high
temperature bursts of some rather nasty chemicals used in those thrusters.
I will simply note you apparently haven't even bothered to do an in-depth
analysis of something you claim was faked. As such your conclusions seem
based on ignorance more than because anything is wrong with the photos.
