This one never fails to amuse me. I don't care what measurements of replicas were made after the event, because the EVA TV footage and photographic record is replete with images of the astronauts going in and out of the LM! If I see lots of TV of someone moving in and out of a hatch, I reasonably conclude it is big enough for them to get through. |
I know I'm wasting my time applying common sense to this nonsense, but here's something I just thought of. So we have this vast conspiracy to fake the lunar landings. And they're prepared to keep it secret for ever, even if it means killing many people off. Meanwhile, a museum run by the conspirators displays a copy of the landing craft, demonstrating conclusively that it's impossible to get in and out of said craft. And it remains on display for years and years.
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
