I'm starting to believe it was all a hoax.

[Daniel_Plainview]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Carlhole', ' ')I mean, the rock in question is the kind of thing that a practiced minerologist would glance at and say, "Oh, that's peterified wood".

The piece that Aldrin gave the museum may not have been so obvious as this picture, but still... the rock would have been easily identifiable by anyone with any experience.

No practiced rock hounds at the museum ever peered closely at Aldrin's gift for 40 years?

He's fessed up: Conspiracy Theorist Convinces Neil Armstrong Moon Landing Was Faked

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A')lthough Armstrong said he "could have sworn" he felt the effects of zero gravity while soaring out of the Earth's atmosphere and through space, he now believed his memory must be flawed. He also admitted feeling "ashamed" that he had failed to notice the rippling of the American flag he and Buzz Aldrin planted on the surface, blaming his lack of awareness on the bulkiness of the spacesuit and his excitement about traveling to the "moon."

"That rippling is not possible in the vacuum of space," Armstrong said. "It must have been the wind from an air-conditioning duct that I didn't recognize because you can't hear a damn thing inside those helmets."

"This is all just common sense, people," he added. "It's the moon. You can't land on the moon."

In a symbolic display of his newfound skepticism, Armstrong then grabbed a collection of moon rocks he had kept as souvenirs and dramatically dumped them into a trash can.

[SFDukie]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BigTex', 'I')'m surprised so many are frustrated that this topic has been raised. If it's false, then what harm will discussing it cause?
How are crazy ideas supposed to get sorted out except by talking through the different points of view? If you can't discuss it in the PO.com Open Forum where can you discuss it?

I wish that there were some photos of the Moon's surface from the earth or satellite telescopes that showed the landing spots and the gear they left behind. As I understand it, the Hubble telescope does not provide enough resolution to provide these kinds of images. But to be clear, I believe that the Moon landings occurred.

[smallpoxgirl]

You guys are missing the obvious explanation. Maybe there's petrified wood on the moon.

[eastbay]

I have come to the sad conclusion that the moon does not even exist.

[BigTex]

Ah, I'm glad we got that loop closed.

[Caffeine]

Heh.

Seriously, some major media outlet should go and have a couple other moon rocks in museums analyzed. Not only would it provide further support for the "Yes, Virginia, we really DID go to the moon" idea, I think you could easily get enough viewers to tune in and learn what moon rock is actually made of. It'd be an educational thing. Especially if you did it on Discovery Channel or one of the similar channels. I don't watch much TV, but I'd probably watch the show.

Somehow, though, I don't think any major news outlet would do that.
