Why the crap are conspiracy theories getting so popular all of a sudden? 9/11 conspiracy videos are all over youtube these days, and now the JFK assassination and moon landing ones are coming back...
Anyway when I look at that flag it looks like it was folded up, and it's still all bent up from where it was folded. If there was wind, it would be shaped according to the force of the wind, not the weak little folds. And yeah, there's a stick holding the flag straight at the top. I didn't read that explanation anywhere, that one came straight from common sense after looking at that picture for like 5 seconds.
Look at it this way... people believe this stuff based on "errors" in the supposed coverup. The bigger the "error", the better proof of "fakery". Okay, now, think about it. If it WAS planned, do you really think they would FORGET to add STARS in their pictures?? People EXPECT to see stars, so if they wanted to FOOL people, WHY AREN'T THERE ANY STARS?! The fact that there are no stars is evidence that it's NOT fake.
In all conspiracy theories I notice they often use quotes taken out of context to "prove" that the people saying them are describing the conspiracy. They do that with the moon landing conspiracy too. THINK ABOUT IT. If it's a big planned deed, why the crap would all those people be BLURTING IT OUT? Accidentally? YEAH RIGHT. And wh--Oh crap, I'm ranting. I'll stop now.
Just look at this, K?
This is perhaps the favorite argument of the TMLWF crowd. "There are no stars to be seen in any of the NASA Moon photographs." It is also one of the most easily countered arguments. The lunar photographs show no stars in them because they were exposed for the daylight lit lunar scenes! This badly underexposes any stars in the sky. Try setting up a manual camera (the autoexposure cameras won't easily allow you to do this) for a typical daylight exposure - use the "sunny 16" rule where you set the f-stop of your camera to f/16 and then set the exposure length to the recipricol of the ASA film speed - if you use ASA 100 film, use 1/100 of a second (or 1/125 which is more typically available). Then take a picture of the sky at night. To be sure you're simulating the lunar situation, be sure to light up a foreground object with full daytime lighting so that the printing process will be sure to expose that part of the image properly and not super stretch the dark sky. You won't find a star image there either.
Similarly, the astronauts eyes are adapted to the daylight scenes around them so they didn't see stars in the sky either. As an experiment to verify this affect, go from a brightly lit room to a dark location just outside and see if you see any stars when you first look up at the sky. Stars were seen, however, when the conditions were right and the crew was dark adapted.
Do you want more?
