let's be fair, we all said stupid things when we were younger. As a teen I was a moon landing denier. Then I read up a ton on the subject and realised my arguments were stupid and easily refuted. The evidence in favour is actually really good and comes from multiple sources in different countries. One of my big issues as a teen was how USA went from so far behind USSR to winning the race to the moon, but when you actually read up on the history of the period you realise two things: 1) USSR wasn't really pursuing a moon landing; and 2) the US threw a ton of money at the problem, and accepted huge risk to the astronauts to make this happen. Why haven't humans been back for 50 years? Because we don't accept close to the level of risk in space flight today as was accepted on the Apollo program, Nasa receives substantially less funding today than they did back then, also that they focused everything on the moon then, but aren't focusing nearly as much on the moon today.
and my response to this is Obviously at the tops of all these governments there is cooperation. the wars ans all are a charade, and the public on both sides are being duped and sacrificed indiscriminately. its always been this way. Russian and American astronauts share in the charade of the International space station to this day. Nasa = Disney. Literally and completely.
Wrong questions! My questions are: 1. Who filmed humans's first step on moon? That camerman was outside the capsule. 2. Who filmed when capsule leaving the moon, following capsule's moving and zooming? 3. Why (but please give me a serious answear) all equipment after this mission was destroyed? 4. Why there is only one (!) photo of planet Earth, which is prooved to be fake (by experts of fotoshop) This is just the first set of questions, when you answear those, I will ask more questions.
@@velikibrat4085 1. There was a camera already setup on one of the lunar lander legs to film them coming down the ladder. 2. The astronauts setup a camera on the Moon surface before they left so that mission control could operate the camera as they took off. 3. The equipment wasn't destroyed. 4. There is more than one picture of Earth from the Moon, but if you believe that one is fake, you'll think the rest are fake too. These questions are so juvenile, I hope you are because that would make sense.
Saw Charlie Duke give a talk about 20 years ago. One of his lines was, ‘If you want a $16 million dune buggy, i know where you can get one. I left one on the moon.’
It's crazy how many people died this time tryn to go to the moon, and when they successfully landed y'all say it's fake, ask those who lost their relatives @decal24
@Maplefoxx-vl2ew but people saw the rocket launch right, and you saw the capsule coming down right, nowadays you see a live stream of SpaceX laughing rockest, and you see em landing so what's realy the proof that it was fake, every theory y'all come up with it has reasonable answers
yeah keeping a secret like that as well would be nearly impossible. at the end of the day everyone who works at NASA is a normal person, if we never went, you would definitely hear about it more than just conspiracys.
@@meatstick8607 not to mention the fact that most of Apollo was built by private contractors whose employees didn't even work for NASA. There are scads of much more compelling things that prove Apollo was real, but the idea that half a million people kept a secret for 55 years is if nothing else, a fun one.
Yes definitely, I've always maintained the same position even with my kids who I can tell have been adversely affected by the internet and AI etc. But you know how it is eh if you try using common sense or critical thinking or reality on tech weaned knumb skulls you'd be further ahead trying to explain E=MC squared to a cow 🐄 hahaha! ...heaven help us.
In the 1980's A&W introduced a 1/3 pound burger at Lower cost to compete with McDonalds 1/4 Pounder . The product failed because , according to market research , the average consumer believed the 1/4 pounder was BIGGER. This is why I never challenge these people to a debate

Hats off to Charlie for not getting angry and still answering and givin benefit of the doubt to people who barely deserve it. I myself would've been a lot less patient. Yet again, that's probably why I'm not an astronaut😂
You're right to trust your guts, because human stupidity goes beyond the limits of infinity. Albeit, a bit too far beyond infinity. We had examples of that in history.

Space is not what we were taught the earth is flat and their is a firmament above us making it impossible to ever reach the moon even if we got up to the moon we can't land on it. It's a ball you fall right off. Gravity is made up were not spinning on ball 100000 miles per hour. Just go back and look at ancient texts you will see how we been brainwashed to believe the stuff we do. All the footage that is made of humans up in space is fake they use green screen to project their surroundings in Hebrew the word nasa means to deceive. The logo depicts a snake. Theirs even people who came out and admitted they faked it. The sun is not 40 million miles away. The sun and moon are the same size that orbit around the earth.
Thank you for this video. I took an astronomy class last semester and there was only one guy who questioned everything until he learned the science behind it. These kinds of explanation videos are key to teaching people things that are truly mind boggling
"It could have been AI. Nobody knows." That right there tells you the real problem. Lack of education means everybody is going to have serious problems. Make sure you vote for somebody that knows how to construct a society. Not deconstruct it.
The cost annually to educate a post secondary student in the USA is over $36,000 which second only to Luxembourg. The US spends more than a few pennies on education. The issue isn’t money, in fact it’s a big part of the problem as well as what is being taught. I’ve a friend that’s a college professor who shared with me that the teacher to administrator ratio is 6 to 1. But that’s not 6 teachers for every one administrator that’s 6 administrators for every one teacher! The educational system in America is broken!!!
@@archibaldevans2251, similar to the health system. The US is by far the top spender per capita, but is way down on the list when it comes to what you get. Extremely inefficient, and turned into a device to make the rich richer.
The CGI back then was just as good as corner pinning a text and that took 20 days to render. And I know that because my dad had one of the old machines, which still is about 10 years later.
I was 13 years old, living in South Africa, and we listened to the Apollo 11 moon landing on the radio as the country did not have tv yet, eventually we were able to go watch it in the movie theatre. Those men who crewed the Apollo landings were so brave. Mr. Duke is a lovely man, explaining everything so clearly and with patience and good humor.
Biggest lie in United States history. Don't believe me? Go watch Candace Owen's recent video about how the moon landing was faked. I could not believe it.
The whole "no stars in the background" argument also doesn't work to prove the deniers right because if it was fake and on a set, they would have made the sky full of stars.
The irony about hoaxfan "Where are the stars?" complaints is that people who actually know something about the field would've definitely cried "Fake" if stars were in those photos.
@@MikeBernard73 The fact deniers are so dumb that they don’t even understand how a traditional camera’s F stop works in areas of high light, shows you are dealing with supreme technical ignorance. What’s sad is some of today’s college students are included in that group. Usually liberal arts types. It’s funny watching their faces when you can easily debunk EVERY single BS line they come up with. And what’s worse is those dumb non STEM students are tomorrows teachers and bureaucrats…
Perhaps if you are you are young and only taken photos with a smart phone, or have never used a SLR camera you may not familiar with “F stop” settings. All traditional cameras used this. In areas of high light (bright sunlight etc) you have to reduce the size of the hole that allows the image through to the film. Otherwise you get an overexposed image. The size of this little adjustable hole is called "F stop". The side effect of using a small F stop this that tiny spots of weaker light won’t appear on the exposed image. All manned moon landings were on the sunny side of the moon. For obvious reasons… Hence any photo that included the brightly illuminated surface of the moon automatically eliminated tiny spots of light in the background. AKA stars. Understand now?
I’m a downright average person, and I cannot believe how dumb people have become. Kids being stupid is fine but there are literally adults who think there were ai video generators in 1969💀
There’s actually very legitimate reasons for suspecting that the moon landing was fake. But if you don’t look further and find out that there’s even more evidence that it’s real you wouldn’t know that so you can’t blame people for being misguided or asking questions. Government lies a lot.
@@lcfflc3887 I’ve been around for far longer than AI images and videos has been around and the fact that you believe those footages are AI generated is so astonishing that I can’t believe you wear a tin foil 😂🤣 Yeah the government are jackals but that’s just a sorry take on down playing people’s achievements because of your own personal dissatisfaction.
yeah it's because the government had secret complex technologies that they took from aliens and stored in area 51, never telling the public :o (also, all the astronauts are robots designed to survive on the moon. technology also stolen from aliens and stored in area 51)
I met Charlie ten years ago when he went to eat at my grandmother's restaurant here in Italy, he signed me and my brother a postcard screwing up our names like five times and then he ate and drank for like 200€. One of the best guys I ever met
You forget to mention that we went to the moon 7 times, every 6 months like we were going to a picnic. Now we lost the technology and can't get passed the Van Allen radiation belts. Also, I've heard sounds from moon videos on the moon in a vacuum. Saw fallen astronauts get help lifted up by a wire. Saw shadows perpendicular to each other. Saw Apollo 11 news conference where the 3 looked like they went to a funeral - scared to talk like afraid to say something wrong. Neil said he couldn't see stars through the view finder "that he could RECALL". What? Can't recall? Or only 3 pics of Neil on the moon. Or them faking a window shot with an earth transparency in the window - actual footage. Why fake it?
They didn't. It's your gut feelings and lack of knowledge that makes you feel this way. Space travel is science. And science means proven facts. It involves obtaining empirical data, which means that it is based on direct, observable facts and experiences. There is no scientific evidence that the 6 moon landings did not happen.
They never went. . Its our government at its best. . Everything is done on a stage. . Look at kumalla. . It was all done on a stage. The zebra don't change its stripes.
the vocabulary the use so low and stupid talking about golf, Playing golf and driving the Rover with both of them in the rover while the camera flow them around, It worst now that time has move a lot faster
Totally agree. There was TV transmissions in east block countries about American moon landing. If it's fake why the enemies would spread this information within their own media? They would rather expose western capitalists' failure. If this is not decent proof (for people who struggle to understand physics), I don't know what is.
@@rokko_fable This was not a point in history where the SU was trying to end the cold war, especially not by going to the lengths of helping the US in their apparent fake moon mission.
@@rokko_fable The Cold War ended 27 years after the first moon landings?? I really doubt they cared that much about ending the cold war without absolute soviet dominance..
Thank you for making this video, my grandmother passed away awhile ago however she was one of the few women who worked in aerospace technology, she was a supervisor in the missile department and although she signed a do not disclose she would get really upset when people would say we never went to the moon and taught me about the things discussed here. I really believe people aren't educated properly about what it takes to get to the moon. I look forward to NASA Artemis program to finally prove that we did go and the un named heroes that helped to make it happen.
As if the Soviets, with whom we were in a race to command the high ground, wouldn't have immediately called bullshit if it any portion of it was fake. They had all their eyes, radio comms, and radar on us the whole time.
Yes, one of the best arguments (because it does not include any scientific stuff that people may not understand). It is very likely there were spies even at NASA (and in the russian space agency as well, of course).
Wrong, the CIA new the US had to fake it first before they do, the soviets were going to do the same, it's just easier, I'll tell you what i believe they were actually trying to go there to the moon for real but they kept having too many delays.
Charles Duke is a friggin STUD!!! I met him 40 yrs ago and he did a talk about the Apollo 16 mission and he brought film and photos - and his stories were 10000% convincing. His enthusiasm and studliness and his description of his faith ✝️ - there’s just no way it’s fake.
I have heard many people say the exact same thing about God, they are MORE than 10,000% sure he is real.....Gimme a break, I think it is total BS, I can't prove to them that God is BS and they can't prove to me that God is real, either, we all believe what we want to believe, obviously you want to believe....and you mentioned "Faith" Nuff said! Personally I don't care whether we went to the moon or not, either we did or didn't, What I believe has no relevance, why does anyone care?
Fear should protect us from saying stupid things like "All six moon landings were faked." But some people are just not wired right and make fools of themselves anyway.
@@OutlawTV89 The only ones around here that are "LIARS" are the Moon Hoax Lunatics calling astronauts who walked on the Moon and tens of thousands of other people better than they are liars. Moon Hoax Lunatics are simple, ineffective, poorly skilled, liars who insult some of the greatest heroes of all mankind. There is a lower form of life than a Moon Hoax Lunatic but I can't come up with it right now.
@@OutlawTV89 Does that mean we cannot ever trust you? If you don't believe the moon landing it is clear that you are not smart in the sciences because you were doing everything but paying attention in science and physics class,, if you even made it that far, and I'm sure you never made it to caculus. Next time you want to call someone a liar just look inn a mirror. It has been proved that we were on the moon so get over your stupidity.
This was great! What a privilege to get to meet Mr Duke! I was 12 when the men walked on the moon and I still remember watching it with my parents. I sat on the floor in front of the TV, absolutely riveted to what was happening. These morons that deny this could not be more ignorant. I don’t know what is going on in our school system now that is turning out so many stupid people. It’s scary.
We boomers who grew up with it had excellent reporters like Jules Bergman explain it to us step by step. Up until Gemini, we could watch the launches at school. Everyone was excited about every step of the project.
"It could've of been AI, nobody knows" 🤣🤣🤣 I keep getting comments about it but I was quoting someone in the video and disagree with the statement I have more than a year in education which would instantly make this statement impossible to believe.
there's no reasoning with these people, most of their argument boiled downs to i dont believe coz i dont want to beleive no matter what evidence you show.
I am not aware of anyone old enough to remember the Moon program and who watched the landings who have doubted their reality. The deniers are all people who did not experience that world. It was a very different world than today, no cgi, no hand calculators but with slide rules and crude main frame computers, with crude video tech by today's standards, a country with a united focus that was willing to focus 4% of the entire national budget on one grand adventure, a country wealthier than today's in many ways, with very little national debt, and a great many world class scientists and engineers. It was also a country willing to take a great risk to succeed, and it did. It was a country confident in itself. It is sad that its focus was lost so badly afterwards.
_"I am not aware of anyone old enough to remember the Moon program and who watched the landings who have doubted their reality"_ Very incorrect. Most conspi theorists are boomers, and if you need a few names, Bill Kaysing and Bart Sibrel would come first.
have you seen it? how do you know they were on the moon? nobody knows... it was during cold war... which was basically a race to the moon and if you can fake it good... you basically won the race right?
@@Underp4ntz_Gaming_Channelridiculous argument! Apollo deniers are those who never understood Science, Math or much of anything else? There is not a single claim by deniers that can be easily shown the be total BS.
I’m dead, in the same year where cell phones were bigger than literal bricks and had huge antennas, NASA had AI technology to fake the moon landings. How do people come up with this stuff…
NASA sent up a rocket as part of the Artimus mission that contained human tissue and other things like electronics to test what the effects of the Van Allen belts on human tissue and organs. The Van Allen belts are very radioactive. So question one is if the Apollo missions flew astronauts thru the Van Allen belts several times why don't they have the results of radiation on human tissue and electronics and how the heck did the Apollo astronauts survive the trip in a capsule made of 1/8" thick aluminum?
The fuel thing, I told somebody that doesn’t believe something about it. I asked them if they ever went bowling. When they said “yes”, I asked if they pushed their bowling ball all the way down the alley to the pins, or did they let it go when they got it fast enough.
That's a perfect analogy. I'm kind of embarrassed that people like these deniers exist. It's almost a mental illness. The same with flat earthers, who I think are substantially worse.
@@Luna-wg6ic "We're only a fungus growing on a rock" Yes, says the person posting their comment using a computer with billions of transistors etched into a silicon substrate. If the human race is that bad, why hang around? No one's forcing you to stay?
That guy who says he's an astronaut, in the video just now, I heard him say that there was one side of the moon where the sun never went down and then there was the dark side of the moon. What's he talking about? We always see only one side of the moon at all times from earth. Clearly you can see shadow come across that face and this happens every 28 days. So that the place where they supposedly landed, would also go dark every 14 days. It's the cycle of the moon. It's why women have menstrual cycles. It's why the tide goes in and out four times a day. And the face of the moon that we see gets dark and it gets bright, that's why we have a full moon for one day of the month or 28 days, and then we have different phases. But truly, the moon has no van Allen belt, so it has no way to protect itself from radiation directly from the sun like the Earth does. And NASA has been quoted lately as seen that the reason we have not been back to the moon is because they can't figure out a way to get a man through the van Allen belt. Yet and 1969 through 1972 they were able to do it. I don't think that the astronauts ever left low earth orbit. They may have sent some junk to the moon, but I don't think man has ever left low earth orbit. Why do you think that is taking them so long to go back? We were supposed to go back two years ago! What's up with that? Can anyone answer that question?
I don't think they explain the star thing very well. If I'm understanding this correctly the issue is really a technological issue. It has to do with the dynamic range of the cameras they're using. I believe with no atmosphere if the sun is up then the surface of the Moon would be extremely bright. Them being on the surface would mean that they would be pretty bright as well as a light reflects on to them. If you're looking at a shot that's properly exposed to show these very bright astronauts then you're not going to also be able to see the stars which would be significantly dimmer in comparison. Either you expose for the stars which means that the Sun and the astronauts would be completely white or you exposed for the astronauts and the surface which means you lose the stars. I've been doing videography since maybe 1997. That's my assessment
and you are completely right. to see stars, whether with or without equipment, you have to eliminate ALL other sources of light. it's relatively easy to do, but isn't trivial
@@thedebatemechannel4746 Most basic test: take and hand-held camera without stabilisation, set it at 1/250 f/5.6 (or f/11 the two most used settings) 80 ISO, and try to shoot stars.
My great grandfather worked on the Apollo 11 mission as a designer and scientist behind it. He was there when Neil first walked on the moon and everytime when someone would ask him if this was faked, instead of getting mad, he’d get upset knowing that people really believed that all the hard work he had put in just for us to walk on the moon was for nothing. He passed in 2021 so unfortunately I cannot ask more questions about this like I should have
Charlie Duke was also the CAPCOM on Apollo 11! He was the one you can hear saying "We're breathing again, thanks a lot" when Neil reported that the Eagle had landed.
Wow! What a legend! I'd like to shake his hand! What an insult to these guys the modern-day moon landing denying morons are. I mean, as Charlie Duke says, we can see the lunar rover. In fact, when we go back, we'll be able to see their footprints as well -- even the spot where he fell over on his back -- provided it was far enough away from the rocket blast of the Ascent Stage.
It is fascinating how CAPCOM is always another astronaut, rather than an engineer. The reason is obvious, as an astronaut would be the best person to relay information an astronaut needs, in the best way an astronaut can understand. In my mind though, I'd imagine the ideal person for CAPCOM would be one of that mission's backups, since they were already trained on all the procedures of that particular mission. But then,... I guess it kinda makes sense. Duke was Haise's backup on Apollo 13 (previously 14), and Haise was Aldrin's backup on 11, so there may still have been some training overlap. I don't recall Apollo missions having a second backup though.
It's so crazy how the least educated people aren't "buying it" and it's only because they're not smart enough to understand it! That's nuts! They won't even try to.
Your last sentence is the strangest part. I don't know how many times I've tried to direct people to info that would answer their questions, and they outright refuse to even look. They claim to know better; the Dunning-Kruger effect. But, I think the real reason is that they are just afraid to be proven wrong. They can't handle that, so they keep their heads firmly in the sand.
So spectacular yet not been repeated for 50 years! When man conquered Everest, every other country did and thousands of others have done so since. Russia were ahead of us in the space race, yet just stopped and despite the country's wealth they've never tried to put a man there! There's trillions of $ worth of Helium 3 and minerals on the moon, so it doesn't matter what it costs, the first to mine that will quintuple their costs...
@@ankyspon1701 russia had a lot of problems with their rocket and lander. Once they were beaten and america returned to the moon for 5 more successful landings they threw in the towel because it was too expensive to keep the program going while they were losing face. Back then it wasn't worth it to them to continue the program. Today we have a lot of private companies involved who have made more efficient and reusable rockets to save a lot of money. Now it is worth it and that is why we have artemis program.
The only downside is, occasionally one has to take it to a watchmaker to be cleaned and oiled. Upside being, reliable as hell. I love a good mechanical watch. Unfortunately, my good ones got stolen in a recent move.
Charlie was CAPCOM for Mission Control on Apollo 11 and after the landing said the famous words: "Roger, Tranquility. We copy you on the ground. You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We’re breathing again. Thanks a lot." I've seen the video so many times I'd recognize his voice anywhere.
Actually he said "Roger, Twanquility Base" and then corrected himself. One of the human things that made Apollo so special. Another example was Neil Armstrong saying "That was one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" when all historians think he meant to say the more logical "That was one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind"

it is hard for a rational person to understand the criminal mindset. make no mistake, the reason people deny the moon landings is one of a) hatred of the usa, and its accomplishments 2) hatred of civilization in general, and its accomplishments and then there are the crooks, who profit off the first two categories by selling them lies.
I mean, lets be honest here. Each astronaut and engineer involved in mercury, gemini, and apollo, had more intelligence in their little fingers than all the deniers have combined. of course they believe it's fake lol
What the hell is wrong with me While skimming the text of this comment, my brain blended together "honest", "astronaut", and "gemini", and I somehow ended up reading that as "hentai"
I think a lot of the moon landing deniers just don't understand the level of technology then compared to today. They haven't really looked at their history and somehow think things have been pretty much like they are now all along.
I started work in banking in 1972. Our branch was talking about getting computers. Those were the days when there would “always be work for a comptometrist”. Now nobody even knows what that is.

The US and the then Soviet Union were at the height of the Cold War. The Soviets had the technology to prove that the US astronauts did not land on the moon if in fact NASA and the US were pulling a fast one. The Soviets tracked the astronauts to and from the moon. It's an acknowledged fact that the Soviet Union was the first to put a man into space. It's an acknowledged fact that the US put men on the moon.
The world is a stage, Sputnik was faked to get the space race going, The U.S. faked the moon landings… All of space with no exceptions is fake… Antarctic Treaty was put in place to prevent independent exploration that would prove Antarctica is not a continent but is the perimeter of our known oceans and continents… the globe is a prison for your mind…peace

Everyone’s talking about how there wasn’t AI in the 60s and 70s, but imagine if you walked on the moon. it would be a huge moment in your life, but a bunch of people denied that you were there
Its not really that sad because for every person denying it there's a 1000 more congratulating the men and the people who worked on the mission to get it done. There will always be people who deny anything but our human minds tend to highlight them
I think younger people have no connection to the past. That is a big part of the problem. You take away modern phone tech ect and live like the 1960's and they would be lost. People seem to have forgotten that NASA back then was cutting edge. They were pushing future technology and had the best of the best working for them. That is how they did it. NASA broke ground on computer miniaturization ect and even though those guidance computers seem primitive today, it was a huge leap forward back then.
In fact every class in every subject should describe the history of the development of concepts, not present them as falling from the sky fully formed and static.

@@shortkari In brief : Radiation -> aluminum body of the spacecraft had enough competence for radiation protection, and since astronauts stayed in Van Allen Belt for not that long time, radiation absorbed in their bodies was very small. 0.8 rem in average, less than the amount of atomic-related workers permited to get annually.(Which is 5 rem in maximum) Film in vacuum -> ...I can't even comprehend what you are asking for bruh You really think this is impossible? Are you even ignoring all those satellites with cameras that the Soviet Union and the US sent all along before Apollo missions? Apollo 13's low temp. -> average temperature of space is -270°C/ -455°F, ...I mean, it's cold, obviously.. Was that enough answer?

@@rayjack400 The ones that are ridiculous are the idiot Moon Landing Denialists who argue for AI in 1969. They're supposed to defend something they call the truth with truths. Instead they make up lies and PRETEND to support the ridiculous lie that the 6 Moon landings between 1969 and 1972 might have a fart's chance in a hurricane of being faked. Fail.
Of course, if the Soviets did say the moon landing was bogus it isn't like our media would tell us. We were completely unaware of Soviet news. Also, it might not be worth starting a nuclear war over. Personally I HOPE we went to the moon but considering our entire monetary system is a fraud I'm not so sure the older I get.
Russia, China, India, Japan, nobody challenged NASA in the moon landings. Yes, it was real, but generations that don't have enough accomplishments to separate themselves from previous generations.Will simply deny
The Russians had very much of their own interest NOT to deny or question the moon landing. They faked many things and either lied or didn’t disclose officially their own failures both in space and on earth. As Bismarck said: “Never trust Russians. They don’t even trust themselves”

That'll give specs and capabilities, not to mention how to use them under normal and unusual conditions. As I recall, the first film camera was brought by the Apollo crew more as an afterthought. Later missions sent some nice German model cameras. If memory serves, one accidentally left on the moon. So, there's a collectable camera up there, climb on up and grab it! ;)

My biggest piece of evidence of the earth not being flat is that if it was, some billionaire would've already tried to turn the edge into a tourist attraction
Germany here, I asked a friend via phone who visited south-africa about "his moon". His moon was "upside down" compared to "my moon". My german moon: bright side on the left and dark side on the right. His south-african moon at the same time was bright right and dark on the left. So much for flat earth, the moon from flat earth shouldn't flip from different observation points on earth! This observation is relatively easy to reproduce, you just need someone you trust on the other hemisphere. I once used this observation against a flat earther, his reaction was just "hmm interesting".

Well done. I was a kid in the sixties and remember clearing watching Neil and Buzz walk on the moon. Later in life I worked at the Kennedy Space Center on the Space Shuttle. I was always fascinated by the moon landings. I was lucky enough to meet eight of the twelve that walked on the moon back in 1989.

So I agree with most of the comments here but if I had access to an astranaut, me thinks I would have came up with a better choice of people and questions for him. You really couldnt come up with better people asking better questions? i.e. How did you get through the Van Allen belt? Why is there massive amounts of shadows pointing the wrong direction? Why is there never a pit under the landing craft after using a thruster to land? etc............geez
As Dr Van Allen himself said, we would need to remain inside the region of the belts with the HIGHEST radiation for ONE WEEK for it to be fatal, and so passing through the weaker areas of the belts in just 2 hours wasn't a problem. Take a few moments to find photographs using the following keywords; *Beach Shadows* Notice all the non-parallel shadows that Apollo deniers claim we shouldn't see in Apollo photos :-) Helicopters landing on sandy beaches and deserts create huge dust clouds as they lift the top surface dust and sand into the air, and yet there are no craters seen under the helicopters.
There is literally no way to convince moon landing deniers & flat earthers….just ask them what it would take to convince them. The honest ones almost have a stroke trying to process the fact that there is no way to prove to them they are wrong but also realize that is crazy.

Real time signal; triangulation from around the world verified signal location as Tranquillity Base on the Moon and time lag proved distance travelled so it could NOT have been faked!
There was a time when I started wondering if the moon landing was indeed fake. But I watched another video of Charlie being interviewed, and he answered a lot more questions and went very much in depth, satisfied all my questions 💯. And he is a very committed Christian man today, not the type of person who would carry a lie for thus many years. What a burden that would be. Also, if it were fake, after more than 50 years after the fact, whistle blowers would be coming out of the woodwork.
I love Charlie Duke. He actually commented on the Homemade Documentaries Apollo 16 TH-cam video saying this, "This documentary was outstanding. As the lunar module pilot who flew on this mission, it brought back so many fantastic memories. After almost 50 years since we were on the moon, this documentary took me there again."
Hmmm The Van Allen Belt, the film in the camera on the moon, the murders (I mean, mysterious, accidental deaths) of many involved, Buzz Aldren saying, "We didn't go there," and then quickly rephrasing...and much more... From a scientific perspective, many questions have yet to be answered about a manned mission to a celestial body beyond the Van Allen Belt... This seems like a nice man, though :) He may have ridden a ride like the convincing, enchanting attractions hosted by Disney World since 1961... The "moon rocks" were also found to be petrified wood...
Hmmmm All refuted, or easily explained away Now explain away how thousands of people are sitting on a massive conspiracy for 60 years Explain how over 15,000 photos including film were all faked Explain why 7 more missions happened after Apollo 11 when there would have been no reason to do so Oh wait, you can't.

let's be fair, we all said stupid things when we were younger. As a teen I was a moon landing denier. Then I read up a ton on the subject and realised my arguments were stupid and easily refuted. The evidence in favour is actually really good and comes from multiple sources in different countries. One of my big issues as a teen was how USA went from so far behind USSR to winning the race to the moon, but when you actually read up on the history of the period you realise two things: 1) USSR wasn't really pursuing a moon landing; and 2) the US threw a ton of money at the problem, and accepted huge risk to the astronauts to make this happen. Why haven't humans been back for 50 years? Because we don't accept close to the level of risk in space flight today as was accepted on the Apollo program, Nasa receives substantially less funding today than they did back then, also that they focused everything on the moon then, but aren't focusing nearly as much on the moon today.

2. Who filmed when capsule leaving the moon, following capsule's moving and zooming?
3. Why (but please give me a serious answear) all equipment after this mission was destroyed?
4. Why there is only one (!) photo of planet Earth, which is prooved to be fake (by experts of fotoshop)

@@velikibrat4085
1. There was a camera already setup on one of the lunar lander legs to film them coming down the ladder.
2. The astronauts setup a camera on the Moon surface before they left so that mission control could operate the camera as they took off.
3. The equipment wasn't destroyed.
4. There is more than one picture of Earth from the Moon, but if you believe that one is fake, you'll think the rest are fake too.

It’s funny watching their faces when you can easily debunk EVERY single BS line they come up with. And what’s worse is those dumb non STEM students are tomorrows teachers and bureaucrats…
Can you tell everyone why their weren't any stars in the back ground 🤔
Perhaps if you are you are young and only taken photos with a smart phone, or have never used a SLR camera you may not familiar with “F stop” settings. All traditional cameras used this. In areas of high light (bright sunlight etc) you have to reduce the size of the hole that allows the image through to the film. Otherwise you get an overexposed image. The size of this little adjustable hole is called "F stop". The side effect of using a small F stop this that tiny spots of weaker light won’t appear on the exposed image. All manned moon landings were on the sunny side of the moon. For obvious reasons… Hence any photo that included the brightly illuminated surface of the moon automatically eliminated tiny spots of light in the background. AKA stars. Understand now?
I’m a downright average person, and I cannot believe how dumb people have become. Kids being stupid is fine but there are literally adults who think there were ai video generators in 1969💀

Totally agree. There was TV transmissions in east block countries about American moon landing. If it's fake why the enemies would spread this information within their own media? They would rather expose western capitalists' failure. If this is not decent proof (for people who struggle to understand physics), I don't know what is.

Thank you for making this video, my grandmother passed away awhile ago however she was one of the few women who worked in aerospace technology, she was a supervisor in the missile department and although she signed a do not disclose she would get really upset when people would say we never went to the moon and taught me about the things discussed here. I really believe people aren't educated properly about what it takes to get to the moon. I look forward to NASA Artemis program to finally prove that we did go and the un named heroes that helped to make it happen.

The "*missile dept," ay... Is that what she called it? Did she also spell it that way too?
@MissyP702 No, only I'm capable of a stupid mistake, I hope that gives you clarification.
As if the Soviets, with whom we were in a race to command the high ground, wouldn't have immediately called bullshit if it any portion of it was fake. They had all their eyes, radio comms, and radar on us the whole time.
They would not have been able to detect of a craft landed on an object over 200,000 miles away, how dumb are you lmao
Yes, one of the best arguments (because it does not include any scientific stuff that people may not understand). It is very likely there were spies even at NASA (and in the russian space agency as well, of course).
This. Soviets absolutely would have called it fake if there was the smallest doubt about it actually happening.
Not necessarily...

I am not aware of anyone old enough to remember the Moon program and who watched the landings who have doubted their reality. The deniers are all people who did not experience that world. It was a very different world than today, no cgi, no hand calculators but with slide rules and crude main frame computers, with crude video tech by today's standards, a country with a united focus that was willing to focus 4% of the entire national budget on one grand adventure, a country wealthier than today's in many ways, with very little national debt, and a great many world class scientists and engineers. It was also a country willing to take a great risk to succeed, and it did. It was a country confident in itself. It is sad that its focus was lost so badly afterwards.

NASA sent up a rocket as part of the Artimus mission that contained human tissue and other things like electronics to test what the effects of the Van Allen belts on human tissue and organs. The Van Allen belts are very radioactive. So question one is if the Apollo missions flew astronauts thru the Van Allen belts several times why don't they have the results of radiation on human tissue and electronics and how the heck did the Apollo astronauts survive the trip in a capsule made of 1/8" thick aluminum?
What type of radiations do you think there are in the Van Allen belts? Gama? 😂
The fuel thing, I told somebody that doesn’t believe something about it. I asked them if they ever went bowling. When they said “yes”, I asked if they pushed their bowling ball all the way down the alley to the pins, or did they let it go when they got it fast enough.

That guy who says he's an astronaut, in the video just now, I heard him say that there was one side of the moon where the sun never went down and then there was the dark side of the moon. What's he talking about? We always see only one side of the moon at all times from earth. Clearly you can see shadow come across that face and this happens every 28 days. So that the place where they supposedly landed, would also go dark every 14 days. It's the cycle of the moon. It's why women have menstrual cycles. It's why the tide goes in and out four times a day. And the face of the moon that we see gets dark and it gets bright, that's why we have a full moon for one day of the month or 28 days, and then we have different phases. But truly, the moon has no van Allen belt, so it has no way to protect itself from radiation directly from the sun like the Earth does. And NASA has been quoted lately as seen that the reason we have not been back to the moon is because they can't figure out a way to get a man through the van Allen belt. Yet and 1969 through 1972 they were able to do it. I don't think that the astronauts ever left low earth orbit. They may have sent some junk to the moon, but I don't think man has ever left low earth orbit. Why do you think that is taking them so long to go back? We were supposed to go back two years ago! What's up with that? Can anyone answer that question?
@@Nightraven6077 There are those who live in Plato's cave their entire lives

I don't think they explain the star thing very well. If I'm understanding this correctly the issue is really a technological issue. It has to do with the dynamic range of the cameras they're using. I believe with no atmosphere if the sun is up then the surface of the Moon would be extremely bright. Them being on the surface would mean that they would be pretty bright as well as a light reflects on to them. If you're looking at a shot that's properly exposed to show these very bright astronauts then you're not going to also be able to see the stars which would be significantly dimmer in comparison. Either you expose for the stars which means that the Sun and the astronauts would be completely white or you exposed for the astronauts and the surface which means you lose the stars.
I've been doing videography since maybe 1997. That's my assessment
and you are completely right.
to see stars, whether with or without equipment, you have to eliminate ALL other sources of light.
it's relatively easy to do, but isn't trivial

Was he the one holding the camera when the lunar module landed
No one can live in a vacuum of Tor 11. The spacesuit would never had worked with zippers and 1 million needle HOLES.
Charlie Duke was also the CAPCOM on Apollo 11! He was the one you can hear saying "We're breathing again, thanks a lot" when Neil reported that the Eagle had landed.
Wow! What a legend! I'd like to shake his hand!
What an insult to these guys the modern-day moon landing denying morons are. I mean, as Charlie Duke says, we can see the lunar rover. In fact, when we go back, we'll be able to see their footprints as well -- even the spot where he fell over on his back -- provided it was far enough away from the rocket blast of the Ascent Stage.
It is fascinating how CAPCOM is always another astronaut, rather than an engineer. The reason is obvious, as an astronaut would be the best person to relay information an astronaut needs, in the best way an astronaut can understand. In my mind though, I'd imagine the ideal person for CAPCOM would be one of that mission's backups, since they were already trained on all the procedures of that particular mission.
But then,... I guess it kinda makes sense. Duke was Haise's backup on Apollo 13 (previously 14), and Haise was Aldrin's backup on 11, so there may still have been some training overlap. I don't recall Apollo missions having a second backup though.

Born in 1990 here... At an age where computers were not really developed, and only rich kids had computers around 1998 (I live in Hungary). So most of my childhood was with no computers. Till like 2005. Back in the day, we could only see the pictures in books, and it looked amazing. I was basically proud to be a human.
Now , it is 2024, and I see 14 year old kids saying it was done by AI, just makes me wonder whether we will even make it as a species. In only 2 generations, what will happen here?... I mean seriously guys.
Watch Idiocracy. We’re screwed

Do you think only Americans are moon landing deniers?
One thing ,go watch there interview when they came bck ,to me that says it all .
Education is a system of imposed ignorance….
Imagine thinking that it's more likely that there was AI in the 60s than that men landed on the moon
They really are that deluded. But they're good for a laugh.
Is this a parody? Either way it's hillarious
@@rayjack400 The ones that are ridiculous are the idiot Moon Landing Denialists who argue for AI in 1969. They're supposed to defend something they call the truth with truths. Instead they make up lies and PRETEND to support the ridiculous lie that the 6 Moon landings between 1969 and 1972 might have a fart's chance in a hurricane of being faked. Fail.
Either one is a huge advancement in science, especially in the 60s.
Soviet union never questioned the moon landings. They knew the americans did it for real. Listening to Charlie is a real privilege!
Exactly right. I lived through that era and it was dog eat dog and I guarantee if it was faked Russia would have broadcasted it
Of course, if the Soviets did say the moon landing was bogus it isn't like our media would tell us. We were completely unaware of Soviet news. Also, it might not be worth starting a nuclear war over. Personally I HOPE we went to the moon but considering our entire monetary system is a fraud I'm not so sure the older I get.
Russia, China, India, Japan, nobody challenged NASA in the moon landings. Yes, it was real, but generations that don't have enough accomplishments to separate themselves from previous generations.Will simply deny
The Russians had very much of their own interest NOT to deny or question the moon landing. They faked many things and either lied or didn’t disclose officially their own failures both in space and on earth.
As Bismarck said: “Never trust Russians. They don’t even trust themselves”
😂😂😂😂 yeah right ….
Q1) Should have way more fuel than what?
When you’re denying a moon landing an aerospace science without knowing the most basic thing about space and vacuum then what are you doing?

OK, I could likely work them, worked dozens of different types, but I really would love the instruction manuals. That'll give specs and capabilities, not to mention how to use them under normal and unusual conditions.
As I recall, the first film camera was brought by the Apollo crew more as an afterthought. Later missions sent some nice German model cameras. If memory serves, one accidentally left on the moon. So, there's a collectable camera up there, climb on up and grab it! ;)

To debate moone deniers is like debating flerfers (flat earthers) . they are all unedcuated mostly religous clowns. Waste of time
If the earth was flat, cats would have knocked everything off by now
My biggest piece of evidence of the earth not being flat is that if it was, some billionaire would've already tried to turn the edge into a tourist attraction
The people interviewed looked anything but religious. But yes, many flerfs and MLD’s are religious.
Germany here, I asked a friend via phone who visited south-africa about "his moon". His moon was "upside down" compared to "my moon". My german moon: bright side on the left and dark side on the right. His south-african moon at the same time was bright right and dark on the left. So much for flat earth, the moon from flat earth shouldn't flip from different observation points on earth! This observation is relatively easy to reproduce, you just need someone you trust on the other hemisphere. I once used this observation against a flat earther, his reaction was just "hmm interesting".
I do not deny but Vr was being developed back then and Ai was in their hands for at minimum 20+ years than we the public. 🤐

Thanks so much to Charlie for debunking people's erroneous beliefs about the moon landings. I was only 9 years old when Armstrong landed on the moon, a remarkable achievement, but Charlie is living proof that there were other great astronauts that set foot there. Thanks again Charlie.
Is that a 'proof' if just an old man say it is true?! If it was a hoax, all the astronauts have been 'handled' by the government to say it was true all their lives...

Well done. I was a kid in the sixties and remember clearing watching Neil and Buzz walk on the moon. Later in life I worked at the Kennedy Space Center on the Space Shuttle. I was always fascinated by the moon landings. I was lucky enough to meet eight of the twelve that walked on the moon back in 1989.
Well, we actually have video evidence on TH-cam of college students who cannot correctly answer the question…
“In what year was the war of 1812?”
In Americas current state absolutely nothing that comes out of the mouth of the general public should come as a shock to anyone. Stupidity runs thick in 2024. Sad…😢
Especially since the war of 1812 was actually 1812-1815. Why it's called that I'll never know. It wasn't in just one year.

Not a chance. Land a satellite first, take a rock sample, then make it home with the sample intact. Then and only then will you be prepared. And with today's tech it shouldn't be that hard.

So I agree with most of the comments here but if I had access to an astranaut, me thinks I would have came up with a better choice of people and questions for him. You really couldnt come up with better people asking better questions? i.e. How did you get through the Van Allen belt? Why is there massive amounts of shadows pointing the wrong direction? Why is there never a pit under the landing craft after using a thruster to land? etc............geez
As Dr Van Allen himself said, we would need to remain inside the region of the belts with the HIGHEST radiation for ONE WEEK for it to be fatal, and so passing through the weaker areas of the belts in just 2 hours wasn't a problem.
Take a few moments to find photographs using the following keywords; *Beach Shadows*
Notice all the non-parallel shadows that Apollo deniers claim we shouldn't see in Apollo photos :-)
Helicopters landing on sandy beaches and deserts create huge dust clouds as they lift the top surface dust and sand into the air, and yet there are no craters seen under the helicopters.
I hope that helps :-)
"Because I don't understand this complicated thing means it can't be true."

There is literally no way to convince moon landing deniers & flat earthers….just ask them what it would take to convince them. The honest ones almost have a stroke trying to process the fact that there is no way to prove to them they are wrong but also realize that is crazy.

Real time signal; triangulation from around the world verified signal location as Tranquillity Base on the Moon and time lag proved distance travelled so it could NOT have been faked!
There was a time when I started wondering if the moon landing was indeed fake. But I watched another video of Charlie being interviewed, and he answered a lot more questions and went very much in depth, satisfied all my questions 💯. And he is a very committed Christian man today, not the type of person who would carry a lie for thus many years. What a burden that would be. Also, if it were fake, after more than 50 years after the fact, whistle blowers would be coming out of the woodwork.
