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.
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
"It could have been an AI" The AI/Computer at that time: 1+1=3 💀 Seriously how can someone think that way... my last hope in humanity has been destroyed with that sentence
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.
Imagine saying to the WWII veterans: "Your years-long training was all a fake, and the War never happened. Those dead friends of yours? Probably pro actors paid off by secret goverments." 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😂
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?
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.

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.
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.

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?
"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.
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.
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
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.
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.

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.
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.

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)
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.
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.
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’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…
man, it must be so cool to have been an Apollo astronaut.... I cant imagine sitting on my porch and daydreaming about things Ive done and Imagining the time I WALKED ON THE FRIKKEN MOON and looked up and saw the whole Earth floating in the sky like the Moon only every person, all the history, and every living thing is all there too for you to see.... amazing.
Makes me so mad when people refuse to acknowledge the greatest accomplishment in human history. And the sacrifices made by all those great people that made it happen.
@@urduib and the bravery of leaving the entire planet a couple of hundred thousand miles away rely on nothing but the equipment you have with you to keep you away from absolute certain horrible death and to never be recovered in all likelyhood
Satellites orbiting the moon have taken pictures of each of the 6 landings. You can see the equipment left behind, the American flag, the footsteps and the tire tracks from the lunar rovers.
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. Autocorrect certainly doesn’t. (It means someone who can operate a business machine just over a metre square by about half a metre high. & noisy!)
One of my coworkers got married & the groomsmen collected the punched-out circles from the computer tape to use as confetti. They were about a millimetre in diameter & got EVERYWHERE!! The groom was still digging them out of his Ugg boots (his luggage had been sabotaged) months later.
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"

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.
I feel like for science class, children should have mandatory sessions in Kerbal Space Program, just to understand how space flight works. For instance, the fuel thing, it perfectly shows you why you spend 70% of your fuel just getting out of Earth's atmosphere and getting into orbit.
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
I applaud not only all astronauts, but the engineers, technicians, as well as all the black women who did the calculations, and the women that wound the rope “read only memory”, and the women from playtex who sewed by hand the space suits, and even the janitors who cleaned up after everyone.

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.
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 the let it go when they got it fast enough.
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.
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."

But guess what, we did it and it was real.
There’s something to that. Similar to the belief aliens had to have built the pyramids because people were so backwards back then, they couldn’t have done it.

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...
@@LillyMarz777 and yet all the evidence says otherwise. Surely you have evidence to support you though right? It couldn't possibly be the same debunked claims that moon deniers say all the time right?
Do I want an interview with the guys and gals heading to the moon? YES! Also thanks to Duke for being part of this. Each one of those mad wonderful people have my undying respect.
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
It's a fine line between ignorance and high praise. Landing man on the moon is such a lofty and technically challenging achievement that even today people still cannot believe that we were able to accomplish it.
I was alive,and a young kid at the time.i have seen a saturn 5 in person,i have also seen the command module,and l.e.m.in person.i can promise you young people they were real,and watching one liftoff was an awesome experience that shook the very atmosphere,and nervous systems of anyone in the vicinity of a firing saturn 5 first stage,and apollo spacecraft lifting off the launch pad.

The Kardashians don't believe we landed on the Moon? "It used to be that we'd be able to say, _'Hey, could you move your giant ass? I'm trying to watch the Moon Landing.' "_ -Norm Macdonald
No denier has never witnessed a real Apollo rocket launch! I am old enough to have been able to actually be standing on a Florida beach just a few miles from Cape Canaveral. Not only could you hear the intensly loud roar of the engines but you could feel the heat. It was very real.
Nobody doubts the rocket launch situation it was verner von brown who cappo off nasa rockets he was a rocket engineer who killed 10,000s my fellow country peoples with his V1 and V2 rockets but he was the epitome off the bad guy n America treated him n his creed like hero's celebrities...but nobody mentions the fact the rockets arch like a rainbow n come back down...off course you feel the heat if close fire is fire its hot nobody doubting that part
@@CargoTrial There is no doubt about the VARB and men having gone through them. All confirmed by multiple sources that followed from launch to return. Even satellites and rovers including from other countries that have confirmed the landing areas with everything they left behind.

The denier wasn't punched because he confronted Aldrin; the denier was following him around, getting into his face, attempting to block his path, etc..
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 was a super duper stupid aa Brit.
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.

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.

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?

@@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.

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?

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...

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 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.
What was the name of it?
We had one of those when I worked at a hospital office in 1972.
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. Autocorrect certainly doesn’t.
(It means someone who can operate a business machine just over a metre square by about half a metre high. & noisy!)
One of my coworkers got married & the groomsmen collected the punched-out circles from the computer tape to use as confetti. They were about a millimetre in diameter & got EVERYWHERE!! The groom was still digging them out of his Ugg boots (his luggage had been sabotaged) months later.
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"

My great grandfather worked on the Apollo 11 mission as a designer and scientist behind it.

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.

But guess what, we did it and it was real.
There’s something to that. Similar to the belief aliens had to have built the pyramids because people were so backwards back then, they couldn’t have done it.

love this, watched the moon landings with my brother as a child here in the UK with awe & so proud that we as a species were able to accomplish this feat & all that we have accomplished since well done & thank you to all that have made & continue to make this happen, don't stop & don't let the naysayers get you down, deepest respect to all those that risked their life & saddened for those that lost their life in the pursuit of scientific knowledge, hero's all.
“It could’ve been AI”
Man she wasn’t even kidding 😂
There's no Natural Intelligence there.
That's like saying it could've been a holodeck program
"How to you know we went to the moon"
"Been there...."
Correct! Just believe the stories of the guys who were there!
The deniers seem to be a bunch of illiterate idiots who never passed a maths or engineering examination in their lives.
"How was it like then?"
"It was underwhelming"
I love it when a denier fronts Buzz Aldrin, face to face, Buzz just decks them...
Yeah, Aldrin was quite the hot-head. Makes you wonder just why he was offended enough to assault someone over an accusation?
@@PNW_Sportbike_Life : I guess when someone accuses you of lying most of your adult life, you would probably deck them too….
@@PNW_Sportbike_Life When someone comes right into your face harrassing you with enormous amounts of venom accusing you of lying amongst other things, it is not surprising the moron got a punch to the jaw. Same way that I could up to you and accuse you of being a grifter your whole life and have achieved nothing and everything you say you did was a lie you would be somewhat unhappy.
The denier wasn't punched because he confronted Aldrin; the denier was following him around, getting into his face, attempting to block his path, etc..
@@PNW_Sportbike_Life The man was clearly packing a bible. Maybe Buzz viewed it as self defense.
"It's AI"
Goddamn, I am left speechless by this statement. AI DIDN'T EVEN EXIST AT THAT TIME BRO
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 ….
People are so stupid; this is why education in America is screwed. We are the dumbest country ever. Thank you for making this. Wild that in the future education will be funneled through a website. Thank goodness for you.
And we landed on the moon first and also split the atom first. We're also the smartest country.

Charlie Duke is one of my favorite astronauts, his enthusiasm was FANTASTIC, he was chosen to be the CAPCOM for Apollo 11 due to his expertise with the LEM,and he's an Air Force Guy, AIM HIGH :)
"Roger, Tranquillity. We copy you on the ground. You’ve got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We’re breathing again. Thanks a lot."
CHARLEY DUKE HAS THE MEASELS!
From tiny Lancaster South Carolina proving that almost anything is possible.
