It's perhaps the most significant moment in human achievement, yet a lot of poo-pooers and conspiracy theorists reckon they were faked!
I was talking to one such fella the other day. He reckons they were staged in secret at an airbase out in Nevada, with cardboard sets, tons of sand, and a spaceship made out of corrugated cardboard, old shower rails and a whole mess of gold tinfoil.
I asked him where his evidence was. He said he knew a guy who once worked for Domino's who told him that the British fellas who put the whole thing together for the American government were paid off with pizza, and quietly whisked out of the country.
So, no actual evidence at all! Talk about gullible!
I guess some people will believe anything.Indigo

Ha! Was it you Indigo? Did you put it together?
ReplyDeleteNo No. Don't be silly. They did it with Legos and airbrushed individual frames of the film to make it look more realistic. Why would a Lego need pizza? ...The things some people say.
ReplyDeletehmmm... does that pizza box say "Indigo Size"??
ReplyDelete*gets magnifying glass* no wonder the flag tipped over.
Hey Kato! Some deranged folk were muttering about time machines and evidence in the photo, but I couldn't possibly comment.
ReplyDeleteHey 'beck! Exactly! They airbrushed the homing signal to make a photo-realistic bleeper!
Hey Eolist! And I never got a slice! Astronauts can be pretty stroppy after three days of space rations.
Thanks one and all! Indigo
Looks like a scale, clay model to me.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you left your space suit at home. (Awfully hard to enjoy pizza through that face mask.)
ReplyDeleteHey Joshua! I wonder if they got Gerry Anderson to help? It would have been so much quicker with Thunderbird 3!
ReplyDeleteHey Boom Boom! I have no idea what you mean. And I wasn't anywhere near the cardboard scenery or the spare grey sand!
Thanks to you both! Indigo
Will the conspiracies never end?!
ReplyDeleteNo. They will not.

Although I did notice in the original footage Sasquatch lurking over in the far left corner, and if you looked carefully, you could see the zipper. So.
ReplyDeleteThe landings were real, but they discovered that the moon was faked. That's the real conspiracy.
ReplyDeleteHey Pearl! Reality is too dull. Good grief, if it was exciting, who'd read this nonsense? You are wise beyond your years, ma'am.
ReplyDeleteHey Murr! I noticed sasquatch also, but you could see his zipper?! Man, I hope he was fastened properly.
Hey matey! Yeah, but if I told them how we faked that instead, they'd never believe it.
Thanks one and all! Indigo
