A funny thing happened on the way to the moon
Bart Sibrel
Was there a moon landing hoax conspiracy? What was NASA hiding? We believe, among many evil things to hide here on planet Earth such as the importation of addictive drugs into the U.S by the CIA, the full impact of the Vietnam War and covert operations in Laos - they were also hiding the REAL space program:
MOONMOVIE.COM has subjected the six manned moon landings of NASA's Apollo program to critical analysis, challenging the claim that under the Nixon Administration the U.S. government landed 12 men on the moon between 1969 and 1972. Not only do our DVDs prove the manned moon landings were faked, but we now offer two more great contributions to AMHIR (Apollo Moon Hoax Investigative Research) - What Happened on the Moon? and Was it Only a Paper Moon?
After more than three years of solid research and confirmation from others who've looked at the Apollo moon landings, and having examined the evidence firsthand - I have absolutely no doubt that Apollo could not and did not take men to the moon and back.
Looking past all the mistakes of researchers, including a few by yours truly, one can easily see that the moon landings were a diversion for the destruction of a free United States and ulitmately the enslavement of the entire globe, by design.
Apollo and to some degree, the faked Mars missions, provided cover for the real space program. The space weapons are in place (see video below) , built by MIT in cooperation with the NSA and CIA. We are now all just biding our time, before all freedoms are totally removed, and a new order of the world begins.
We invite you to take a look at the evidence yourself and see that while the Apollo Program accomplished many things, it did not place twelve men on the lunar surface. Our films challenge the citizens of the United States to hold their government accountable - to the people which it is obligated by our founding documents to serve and not to abuse. The manned moon landing hoax serves as a reminder to all of us that our founders were correct in their assessment of human government. It can never be fully trusted.
How could such a secret be kept from the world...?
A: This is the same logical question I asked myself, when I was challenged a few years ago to examine the evidence in Bart Sibrel's films. In fact, for most of us who research the moon landing hoax (MLH) it's a logical starting point. And from a distance, this argument appears to be an excellent refutation of the conspiracy. But let's take a closer look at what this assumption really implies.
We have been told that estimates of over 150,000 people were directly involved in the production of the first nuclear bombs, and untold numbers were indirectly involved. Almost all of them had no idea what the end result of their work was to be - they simply worked on the production of "it", whatever it was to become. So conservatively, well over 200,000 workers were involved in the Manhattan Project. And all but a handful were not allowed to know that they were creating a massive weapon of destruction. The secrecy was kept despite this large number of people. So over 20 years later, did the US government lose the ability to insure the covert operations of the military? We have no reason to deny the distinct possibility that those who worked on the Apollo Project would not be allowed to know that they were working on a massive 'weapon' of propaganda - in this case, a form of mass mind control.
- What about all of those NASA engineers and administrators stationed at the computer consoles?
Could it be that they were receiving various bits of preprogrammed or live, simulated data from a script, which was fed to all of them by a computer simulation program originating from a central location? If you look at the footage ten seconds prior to launch, they are all kicked back as if "watching television", just like the rest of us. But what exactly were they watching on their consoles? As you will see in the video below, Mission Control technicians were operating during training completely at the mercy of the simulation. And during these mission simulations, the crew which was supposed to send men to the moon and back - had failed countless times.
And since they continually failed in the simulation, it becomes even more evident that they would also be at the mercy of those who could manipulate the mission programming during the "real" event.
Keep in mind that the technicians at Mission Control in Houston, Texas may not have been part of the conspiracy at all. These individuals were to simply read the information on their monitors and make decisions based on the computer's output data. They did not need to know or care where the data came from.
And where did they get this data from? They did not get it from the general public, they got it from the NASA owned tracking stations, and quite possibly filtered through NASA HQ in Washington, D.C. Everything the Deep Space Network “received” from the moon was relayed over telephone lines to the people at Houston. So all NASA would need do is pass simulated data from pre-arranged tapes over to Houston, and the technicians would automatically assume it was the real deal.
In the documentary Failure Is Not An Option , Apollo Flight Director Gene Kranz was quoted as saying: “The simulations were so real that no controller could discern the difference between the training and the real mission.” That's quite a bold and revealing statement coming from the man in charge of Mission Control.
- What about tracking the Apollo spacecraft?
No individual or group, other than the U.S. Government, can attest to having tracked the Apollo spacecrafts all the way to the moon and back. Apollo claims to have communicated on radio frequencies not allocated to radio hams. Was this done simply for national security, or to totally minimize any independent verification by a curious public? At best, the few radio hams who claim to have picked up Apollo transmissions can only attest to having picked up signals whilst the craft was on or near the moon, and if they were lucky a handful of signals on the return trip home - but nothing that can't be pulled off with an unmanned craft and in some cases "moon relay (bounce)".
One such Ham operator, Paul Wilson, was quoted to saying: “The moon is always in view of ...NASA's primary tracking stations... , but not so for the amateur. Some of the most exciting events and transmissions from the Apollo mission always seem to occur when the moon is below the horizon for the continental United States astronomer!” If that weren't enough, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) effectively policed what these individuals could and could not reveal to the public. “Important! FCC regulations prohibit disclosure of the content of communications not intended for the public. Thus, it is illegal to inform the press or any other third party of the content of any information directly received from the Apollo communications link.” How can radio hams be regarded as independent verification when the FFC restricts what little of their data they can release to the public?
- Summary
Really it wouldn't have mattered if there were ten people involved in the hoax or tens of thousands of people involved in the hoax. Secrets of such magnitude have historically been covered up for so long. On the Russian side, the USSR had constructed two top secret moon programs to try and win the moon race. The L1 project would send a two-man Zond capsule (basically a Soyuz, but without the orbital module) around the moon. The L3 project used a Saturn-sized rocket known as the N-1 to launch a Russian lunar lander. The Zond was launched but never crewed and the N-1 failed miserably four times, although their LK lunar module was smuggled into earth orbit thrice.
These programs involved tens of thousands of scientists, engineers and physicists. And yet the entire Soviet Moon Program was effectively covered up and denied until the fall of the Soviet Union. No one outside a tiny Soviet Elite ever knew of the N-1 launches. They Soviets officially denied that they were even trying to get to the moon, this cover-up subsequently became known as The Real Moon Landing Hoax. [1] The Russians involved thousands of people and had no problem covering this up. Are we to believe the Americans could not do likewise with their equivalent program?
With Cold War Propaganda tensions running high, those who knew the truth went along with the deception to fool both the Soviets and the American citizens that we had technological superiority - and to keep the contrived 'arms race' going.
In 1957 Time Magazine had on its cover "The Smartest Man in America" (the latest winner of the most popular TV trivia game show at that time.) It was later uncovered that the contestant received the answers in advance from the show's producers because he was widely loved by the viewers. In fact, one hundred twenty contestants and staff initially swore on the Bible during a grand jury investigation that the television show was not rigged. Most later recanted, and it is now known they all lied. If all these people were willing to lie for a little money, how much more for alleged national security and a career's worth of money? The fact is, Time Magazine was wrong. The best way to fool the world was to fool the media. NASA did this in large part by keeping the media ignorant of the facts altogether, as James Webb had during the Apollo 1 fire investigation, beginning with the failure to report the deaths to the press for two full hours. It was after the tragedy that New YorK Times would nickname the space giant: "Never A Straight Answer", and the trend has continued up to this very day.
The press would be controlled, completely. The entire civilized world, including the 400,000 workers who built Apollo essentially saw the exact same thing as you and I saw on television. The astronauts went up the launch pad elevators in front of witnesses, and they emerged from floating capsules in front of witnesses, an the public press was only granted access to these two single events in each and every Apollo moon mission. The government maintained complete control over the video, audio and data, and to this day, much of the documentation of the Apollo missions remains classified.
The raw film evidence (as seen in the AFTH, LLC films), sent to Bart Sibrel from NASA's Johnson Space Center (first brought to the public's attention in 2000) proves that Apollo never took men to the moon.
What about all of the people who seem to be refuting the Moon Landing Hoax, point-by-point?
What about the moon rocks?
Wouldn't the Russians find out and then tell the world?
Why hasn't someone come forward?
What about laser reflectors on the moon (allegedly left by Apollo) that scientists bounce light beams off of?
How could the scientists of the world be fooled?
If the evidence you have is so compelling, what hasn't CNN picked it up?
What about Apollo 13?
If A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon is such Earth-shattering evidence, why are you selling it instead of offering it for free?
Can't you see the artifacts left from the alleged moon missions through a powerful telescope?
Unmanned probes such as Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and SELENE photographed lunar terrain that looks identical or at least close enough to that photographed on the Apollo missions. If Apollo was faked, how did NASA know what the landscape looked like before these Post-Apollo missions?
You claim that the radiation in space would have killed the Apollo astronauts. Well what about the Zond 5? That Soviet space flight carried turtles around the moon and those turtles survived.
Are there other overlooked anomalies, not associated with the filming or photography of the missions?
