- No stars. Some conspiracy theorists reference the lack of stars in the pictures taken by the Apollo astronauts from the surface of the Moon. Media caption,
- The flapping flag. Another claim is that the famous US flag, which appears in photos of the moment, appears to be flapping in the wind. Doubters say there wouldn't be wind on the Moon as there is no air.
- It wasn't impossible. Some people don't believe in the space shuttle and the missions to the Moon because they think the journey itself was impossible because of something called the Van Allen belts.
- Moon rocks. Another piece of evidence for the landing is the fact that the astronauts came back with rocks from its surface. They returned with more than 842 pounds (382kg) of Moon rocks, which have been shared and studied by scientists in many countries for decades.

One of the most popular conspiracy arguments is that there are never any stars in Apollo photos. Free from Earth’s light pollution and hazy atmosphere, you would expect to see thousands of stars in all the astronauts’ images. Unfortunately, this argument rests on the photos being snapped during the lunar night. All manned missions to the Moon took ...
Perhaps the most convincing argument that the landings were faked has to do with something called the Van Allen belts. These are two giant doughnut-shaped belts surrounding the Earth. They are made of highly energetic charged particles from the solar wind. Some people believe humans couldn’t have passed through these belts without being exposed to ...
Of course, until we return to the Moon there will always be anomalies and oddities in the records that can spark new claims that the Moon landings were faked. But it is the sheer size and variety of this record that proves every one of these claims to be false. From the Apollo Moon missions, there are 8,400 publicly available photos, thousands of h...
A vast weight of evidence supports the fact that humans really did land on the Moon multiple times between 1969 and 1972. But it is important to question and think critically about events of this scale – and sometimes researching and puzzling out the answers can be half the fun!
Aug 23, 2018 · On July 20, 1969, two American astronauts landed on the moon and became the first humans to walk on the lunar surface. The event marked the culmination of a nearly decade‑long intense push...

- shadows in the Moon landing photos prove the images were faked. Take a look at the image below, and at the full panorama on the NASA website.
- Apollo astronauts could not have survived Earth's radiation field. Earth is surrounded by a zone of charged particles known as the 'Van Allen' radiation belt.
- why are there no stars in pictures of the NASA Moon landings? Here is another Moon landing photograph which has caught conspiracy theorists' eye.
- the Apollo 11 US flag is waving in the wind... but there's no wind on the Moon. "One of the crowning moments in terms of US national pride was seeing the Stars and Stripes on the surface of the Moon," Prof Ojha says.
A Moon landing or lunar landing is the arrival of a spacecraft on the surface of the Moon, including both crewed and robotic missions. The first human-made object to touch the Moon was Luna 2 in 1959.
Jul 20, 2019 · It is only seven months since NASA’s made a bold decision to send Apollo 8 all the way to the moon on the first manned flight of the massive Saturn V rocket. Now, on the morning of July 16, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong , Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins sit atop another Saturn V at Launch Complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center.
