And I said quite specifically in an earlier post, but perhaps I didn't emphasise it enough, that the mistake HBers have made is assuming two source of light.

I believe there was only one because, if you were going to fake it, you would want to try to simulate the sun. As an aside though, wouldn't the Earth be a second source of light - or is it not strong enough? I honestly don't know, this is a legitimate question.

In fact, I think the problem with many HBs (including myself) is that we have been misinformed by these HB "leaders", as it were, who have stated faulty arguments which have rightly been shot down as being flawed. In fact, I wonder that they aren't disinformation agents being used, either knowingly or unknowingly, to make it look as if the idea of the moon landings being a hoax, is in itself a hoax.

The problem with HBers is not so much a belief in a hoax, but why they belive it. They believe it for the wrong reasons (faulty arguments). The right questions haven't been asked and the wrong evidence has been presented.

I believe there is something very suspect about the Apollo missions, but to be honest, it is perhaps beyond my knowledge to present feasable arguments that would stand up to the high standards and scrutiny of this board. So I think I should just leave this for now. However, I put it to you that only one source of light was needed to fake the landings.

What I DO believe, is that this pro vs anti Apollo war is deliberately perpetuated or encouraged by NASA to smokescreen something else. While they pro and anti factions are fighting, they are diverted from something else has been secretly going on concerning NASA and the moon and mars... :-?

I would like to thank Jay in particular and others for having the patience to answer my questions conherently. I know I tend to be a bit gungho sometimes when it comes to some of the things I say; perhaps I'm a bit of a red rag to some of you. I'm someone who follows my heart and will tend to say whatever comes to mind (as some of you will have definitely noticed on the other forum) so there we go. 8)
