Germans to Prove Apollo Moon Landing

A German Lunar X-Prize team is going to land rovers on the moon and find the Apollo 17 lunar rover, thus proving that the Apollo landing actually occurred. Maybe they will also be able to find a way to prove that the earth is round and that the earth revolves around the sun. Even if they find the lunar lander and send back pictures, the nut case deniers still won't believe it. Studies have shown that presenting skeptics with factual information merely makes them dig in harder. Ignore them!

Who cares? I'm still waiting to shake hands with an alien and go camping with a Sasquatch.

Like I always say...if Stanley Kubrick faked the moon landings, then Irwin Allen faked Apollo 13!

Jerry, your last sentence is soooo true. I've learned the hard way and now don't even try.

Your assuming that the moon is NOT made out of cheese.

Well, maybe yes, maybe no. I do know for certain that before any men or equipment landed on the moon, they made certain that there were no mice or rats on board.

Sasquatch now has an agent, so that camping trip will be very expensive with a lot of fine print in the contract. Yeti and Bigfoot are still independent, so you should try them first.

Why Germany, oh yes NASA has lost the original landing video. My My. According to NASA we can not repeat what we did in the sixties. That is confusing ?

I once read that 74% of American's believe the moon landing was faked. I also read that 74% of American's believe that WWF Wrestling is real....

We really need Germans to "prove" we landed on the moon?
Ok I suppose this is just photoshopped

Well, it doesn't take a scientist to figure out that the Earth is round. Please don't believe that all science always gets it right or that their motives are always pure. Ever hear of the "Piltdown Man?" It turned out to be a hoax. Ever hear that story of that guy who supposedly discovered or figured out Cold Fusion? Falsified his information. Do you know what the "Streetlight Effect" is?

And I bet there's some overlap there.

Actually, WWF had to change it's name, and it had to decide if it was sport or entertainment. Then went with entertainment - WWE.

Science doesn't always get it right the first time, but real scientists accept facts and change their beliefs as new facts come to light. I know "beliefs" isn't the right word, but you get the idea. "Publish or perish" also causes erroneous results to be published and lapped up by the public and the news media.
