Perhaps you speak of science FAQ's. But I came across an interesting
hole in the FAQ of a cut-rate ISP. Do you provide space on a web
server as a service? One can only answer this, in the negative, by an
exhaustive search on their pages which fails to turn up any info. I
guess theirs was a "FAQWAWL" (frequently asked questions whose answers
we like). Questions whose answers we don't like aren't "questions".

THE APOLLO HOAX FAQ version 4.1 - November 2003
Written by Nathan Jones

The gadgetry we left up there, the Moon rocks here, and all the
recorded mission telemetry and communication does, however, make it
extremely unlikely that the Apollo Moon missions were faked. It
would've cost way more and would've been much more difficult to fake
everything than it did and was to just plain send some guys up there.


I have always wondered that, If this were true, in this day and age of Media
hype and flash in the pan stories, how did they get 100,000 or so people to
Shut the Hell up about it for the past 30 years....

I didn't notice a sudden spike in the mortality rate of the tech sector.....

Do they have giraffes available for rent? Do they give a new

clean pair of sox I can wear tomorrow?

THE APOLLO HOAX FAQ version 4.1 - November 2003
Written by Nathan Jones

[rest snipped]

Beyond the fact we dragged back 382 kg of moon rock,
snip [etc.], there's no proof that we went to the moon.

Unfortunately, conspiracy theorists' minds are hermetically sealed.

And they've lost the key.


The gadgetry we left up there doesn't prove anything. Everything that
was left behind - from corner cubes, to LM descent stages, to EVA
suits, to bags of frozen urine

They bagged it? My brain hurts...though I suppose that's
a little easier to design than ejecting it out of a heated
orifice on the side of the LEM.

(Of course nowadays we'd be expected to bring it *back*;
the EPA gets more stringent every year...)

- *could* have been placed there by
robotic missions. Could've even had EVA suit boots on a rover that
bounced aroud to make the footprints.

Yeah, I've always wanted to bag some urine and send it to the Moon.
For, erm, scientific purposes. Yeah, that's it.

Not to mention a robotic rover which would probably
look like something Acme Whizzbang Gadgets (dedicated to
instantly sending things to coyotes way out in the middle
of nowhere via helicopter or postal truck) would dream
up -- and work about as well; wheels just make much more
sense on a relatively flat surface.

And if they're going to go to all that trouble, why go all the
way to the Moon? They could just as easily go to Sound Stage
3 on a movie lot somewhere, throw around some gray dust,
paint a matte or two, and implant a boot in cement. Voila.

(Of course they'd then have to burn the place down or
something to destroy the evidence afterwards. After all,
what good would a conspiracy theory be with actual evidence
to back it up?)


The gadgetry we left up there, the Moon rocks here, and all the
recorded mission telemetry and communication does, however, make it
extremely unlikely that the Apollo Moon missions were faked. It
would've cost way more and would've been much more difficult to fake
everything than it did and was to just plain send some guys up there.

Not sure about it costing more but it certainly would be way more
pointless. :-)
