How Stanley Kubrick Faked the Apollo Moon Landings. “There are great ideas, undiscovered breakthroughs available, to those who can remove one of truth’s protective layers.” –Neil Armstrong, “First Man on the Moon” July 20th, 1994 It has now been forty years since the fabled moon landings by NASA and the Apollo gang. When it comes to the subject of the moon landings, people tend to fall into two belief groups. The first group, by far the bigger of the two groups, accepts the fact that NASA successfully landed on the moon six times and that 12 human beings have actually walked on the surface of the moon.

The second group, though far smaller, is more vocal about their beliefs. This group says that we never went to the moon and that the entire thing was faked. This essay presents a third position on this issue. Furthermore, this third position reveals that the great filmmaker Stanley Kubrick is the genius who directed the hoaxed landings. 1. But why fake the moon landings at all? 2. 3. Once he negotiated the deal, Stanley, got to work. 4. 5. 6. Moon.

Apollo 11 Moon Landing Site Seen in Unprecedented Detail | Moon Photos. The clearest view yet of the famous Apollo 11 landing site on the moon was captured by a NASA spacecraft in orbit around our planet's natural satellite. The agency's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) zeroed in on Mare Tranquillitatis, or the Sea of Tranquility — the place where humans first touched down on the lunar surface on July 20, 1969.

The new image from LRO captures amazing details of the historic site, even revealing the remnants of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's first steps on the moon. In the image, the astronauts' tracks are the dark regions around the Lunar Module that lead to and from various scientific experiments that were set up on the surface of the moon. LRO's camera snapped the picture as the probe flew only 15 miles (24 kilometers) above the moon's surface. The discarded cover of the Laser Ranging RetroReflector is also highlighted in the image. The new image also clearly shows how restricted Armstrong and Aldrin were in their exploration of the area. Amazon Founder Finds Apollo 11 Moon Rocket Engines On Ocean Floor | Saturn V Rocket.

When NASA's mighty Saturn V rocket launched the historic Apollo 11 mission to land the first men on the moon in 1969, the five powerful engines that powered the booster's first stage dropped into the Atlantic Ocean and were lost forever. Lost, that is, until now. A private expedition financed by Amazon.com founder and billionaire Jeff Bezos has discovered the five F-1 rocket engines used to launch Apollo 11 into space on July 16, 1969 and is drawing up plans to retrieve one or more so they can be publicly displayed.

"I'm excited to report that, using state-of-the-art deep sea sonar, the team has found the Apollo 11 engines lying 14,000 feet below the surface, and we're making plans to attempt to raise one or more of them from the ocean floor," Bezos wrote in a statement posted to the Bezos Expeditions website. "We don't know yet what condition these engines might be in - they hit the ocean at high velocity and have been in salt water for more than 40 years. Legacy of Apollo. Apollo 18 PL FULL HD.
