If you believed they put a man on the moon, a man on the moon...

Yup, 19 Muslim terrorists did 9/11, knowing perfectly well the chaos Bush would bring to the Muslim world. And of course it is just a coincidence that the chief of the ISI (the Pakistani intelligence service) was meeting with the heads of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees in Washington, D.C on September 11, just months after he wired $100,000 to Mohammed Atta. And it's also just a coincidence that the 9/11 Comission report never followed this very promising lead, and actually declared that it is of little consequence (!!!) where the money to fund the attacks came from.

Oh Lucy! You Gotta Lotta 'Splainin To Do!

The lack of stars is actually quite easy to explain.

The stars are there! They're just too faint to be seen.

This is usually the first thing HBs talk about when discussing the Hoax. That amazes me, as it's the silliest assertion they make. However, it appeals to our common sense: when the sky is black here on Earth, we see stars. Therefore we should see them from the Moon as well.

I'll say this here now, and return to it many times: the Moon is not the Earth. Conditions there are weird, and our common sense is likely to fail us.

The Moon's surface is airless. On Earth, our thick atmosphere scatters sunlight, spreading it out over the whole sky. That's why the sky is bright during the day. Without sunlight, the air is dark at night, allowing us to see stars.

On the Moon, the lack of air means that the sky is dark. Even when the Sun is high off the horizon during full day, the sky near it will be black. If you were standing on the Moon, you would indeed see stars, even during the day.

So why aren't they in the Apollo pictures? Pretend for a moment you are an astronaut on the surface of the Moon. You want to take a picture of your fellow space traveler. The Sun is low off the horizon, since all the lunar landings were done at local morning. How do you set your camera? The lunar landscape is brightly lit by the Sun, of course, and your friend is wearing a white spacesuit also brilliantly lit by the Sun. To take a picture of a bright object with a bright background, you need to set the exposure time to be fast, and close down the aperture setting too; that's like the pupil in your eye constricting to let less light in when you walk outside on a sunny day.

So the picture you take is set for bright objects. Stars are faint objects! In the fast exposure, they simply do not have time to register on the film. It has nothing to do with the sky being black or the lack of air, it's just a matter of exposure time. If you were to go outside here on Earth on the darkest night imaginable and take a picture with the exact same camera settings the astronauts used, you won't see any stars!

It's that simple. Remember, this the usually the first and strongest argument the HBs use, and it was that easy to show wrong. Their arguments get worse from here.

Hehe, yea, I always get involved in them for a bit when i'm bored, throw a few punches, take a few, then go watch TV for a bit.... lol

i found them,there are acctualy little pin-point stars in the pictures,hard to see,and impossable to see with and resolution a computer screen can provide,the picture with the camera man in armstrongs visor is easily explained by the angle,the sun is to his side(you can see this from the glare in the corner of his visor) that is why his side is lit up and why his shadow is angled,i'm not looking at the picture(ghost's) so i can't debunk all the things brouhgt up but i'll get to it after i load it
