There’s a peer-reviewed article that contains many of these claims, but they also provide the origins and history on how people were even able to land on the moon. This article is called ‘’Apollo Moon Landing hoax accusations’’. What made people to make quick assumptions like that? Several medias reinforced the idea that we never actually landed on the moon. For example, the first book which was on this subject was made by Bill Kaysing who he himself published was called ‘’We never went to the Moon: America’s Thirty Billion Dollar Swindle’’.
never landed on the moon. It has been 44 years since man took his first steps on the moon. The majority of the American public accepts the moon landings as truth, but there are a very vocal select few who refuse to accept what the government has depicted. Conspiracy theorists explain that at the time the U.S. government was desperate to beat the Russians in the space race, therefore they faked the lunar landings with the astronauts acting out their mission on a secret Hollywood set, or somewhere within Area 51. They claim since that the photos and videos of the Apollo voyage are only available through NASA, there is no other independent verification, thus the moon landings were a hoax.
“The Moon We Left Behind” Title: I think this title could possibly mean that we left something special about the moon behind. Author: Charles Krauthammer is an editor to the time magazine, Krauthammer writes weekly columns for time magazine. Krauthammer is also a psychiatrist, journalist, political scientist, speech writer and has also been awarded for what he does. Purpose: I think the purpose of this piece is expressive writing because he talks about his expressions. The author does not believe what was promised and also about how we should look at the moon.
September 4, 2013 A Loss of Interest Charles Krauthammer expresses his disappointment for American’s loos of interest in moon exploration in his Washington Post article, “The Moon We Left Behind”. This essay is very informative, and fairly persuasive; Krauthammer keeps it entertaining by adding his own opinions and insights. Krauthammer’s main idea is how America has essentially abandoned the Earth’s largest satellite since our original obsession with it, brought on by President Kennedy. If we ever hope to discover any new information about the moon, or our solar system, we will have to send someone into space once again. Krauthammer sets an informative and persuasive tone by his use of numbers and dates.
The shedding of foam “normalized of deviance” violates human spaceflight safely. None the less, past space shuttles lunched have been successful with foam shedding.

But when they came to one that was about half the size of Pluto that’s when they began to question their though of Pluto being a planet. They named the large Kuiper Belt object (KBO) Quaoar after the god who created the Native American Tongva tribe. Quaoar actually had a more planet like orbit then Pluto does. Which also gives astronomers a reason to question if Pluto really is a planet. People 1st started to actually look into the idea of Pluto not being a planet in 1998 by the International Astronomical Union also known as the IAU.
In the late 1960’s the English reader saw America’s Launch as a threat to their hierarchy; so, the writer write his piece in a repetitive manner to imply to the viewer that the Launch was also dull, boring, and not a momentous accomplishment. The audience of the 21st century not only in England but the world assessment of Armstrong’s moon landing as an achievement for mankind. Not only does the Launch benefit America but all nations with an interest to organize a similar expedition or even if they do not have the resource America did to have the Launch they can use America’s as there source. One opinion universally shared in both generations is Neil Armstrong is a moon landing “god”, in the second article the reader can deduct from the reading the author was fairly fond of Mr. Armstrong. A person just newly aware of the Apollo 11 Launch, if informed with an unbiased view would also agree or share the same perspective as the original author that Armstrong is a man to looked upon as a national hero.
In 1965, he said of his more radical past: "I was a zombie then. The sickness and madness of those days -- I'm glad to be free of them." The contradictory figure, who both shrugged off the Kennedy assassination and eventually disavowed all racism, would never get the chance to expound on those changing sensibilities; he was assassinated at the age of 39. * Neil Armstrong - When Kennedy made that declaration, he also acknowledged its challenges, calling the space program "the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked." Armstrong was accustomed to danger -- he'd flown in Korea, and as an experimental test pilot -- but the 1969 moon landing was a new kind of milestone, a defining event for humanity, and the significance of its imagery is inexpressible.
Christian Flores WRC 1013-08 Ms Hudson October 16, 2012 Apollo 11 The myth busters are a group of scientist and special effects professionals that work together to solve their viewers questions about modern myths that deal with special effects for example, Apollo 11. They are made up of 5 people Adam Savage, Jaime Hyneman, Grant Imahara, Kary Byron, and Tory Belleci. Apollo 11 had and still has several conspiracy theories. One of the most common theories is that Apollo 11 was staged in a studio instead of being actual footage of man’s first steps on the moon. Since this is such an important part of history the myth busters wanted to prove that the Apollo 11 mission was in fact true.
Future space efforts may be handicapped by this still-widespread view, typified by the recent statement of French space minister Claude Allegre, criticizing the International Space Station, that he was unaware of any important scientific discovery made by an astronaut (Space News, 22-28 June 1998). The case for Apollo as a key element in Landsat begins with the statement by the late W. T. Pecora (1969), that Landsat's precursor concept, the Earth Resources Observation Satellite (EROS) program of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), was "conceived in 1966 largely as a direct result of the demonstrated utility of Mercury and Gemini orbital photography to Earth resource studies." A contemporary review of satellite imagery in this journal (Merifield et al., 1969) devoted its first six pages to the "superb" Gemini and Apollo 70-mm geologist (Fary, photographs. A similar paper, by a U ~ G S 1967) argued for EROS, illustrating its value with several ''magnificent" Gemini photographs. However, the link between EROS and Apollo is a complex one, needing further discussion.
