You say, "Many photos taken of the moon have been obviously doctored." You got any proof of that? No? Then SHUT UP. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THIS! YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND TO THINK THE GOVERNMENT, ESPECIALLY UNDER A DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION, COULD EVER ENGAGE IN SUCH SHENANIGANS! YOU ARE RIDICULOUS! YOU LIVE IN A FANTASY WORLD! OR YOU ARE PARODYING ME!

Relax, pal, I'm only trying to head the usual suspects off at the pass.

So, the moon photos. I happen to have some expertise in this field. Not only do they look doctored, they look absolutely faked. Many of 'em anyway. It's one of those things where if you have them on the table you can explain it to others, but lacking the evidence they'll hoot and holler that you must be nuts.

Great education system we have huh?

Their profoundest worry I think is, that if the photos are fake then MAYBE WE DIDN'T GO TO THE MOON AFTER ALL AND WE'VE BEEN LIED TO ALL THESE YEARS BY A GOVERNMENT WE'VE (BOO HOO) TRUSTED, AT LEAST WHEN IT WASN'T RUN BY EVIL REPUBLICANS.

(Sorry, there I go again...)

I've been on record for years on these fora with my doubts about the photography, and from time to time certain vile inmates have accused me of saying we didn't go to the moon -- which I very carefully refrained from saying.

So: I am not speaking of the rediculous "the moon landing was actually in a studio theory" which is obviously wrong. Beg to differ. (You are I assume talking about the videos.) It could all very well have been staged on a, ah, sound stage. In fact, it probably was! Did you know that NASA claims to have *lost* the original higher-rez tapes? So all we have is the blurry stuff? Betcha they were scared of renegade image analysts queering their game.

Still, withall, that does not mean we (and I use the term "we" loosely) did not get there, sooner or later. Did you know there are questions whether film can pass unprotected through the radiation belts and remain unfogged? So NASA had this need to show some results to the public, and what could be easier than slipping in a few shots made locally?

There are many reasons imaginable for faking them, but the one that disturbs the naysayers most hugely, is that NASA/DOD could be hiding what's actually up there. All they have to do is read some of the Hoagland material (the book to read, Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA) and they'll have a pretty good grasp of the enormity of the problem. Your proffered site is a good start, but I object to its inclusion under the rubric "paranormal". Extraterrestial archeology is perfectly normal!

The book to read on the photography is here:

http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Moon-Whistle-Blowers-Mary-Bennett/dp/0932813909/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1210711234&sr=1-1

The pointer below is to Dark Mission, and I quote the first part of a review:

Dark Mission by Richard C. Hoagland
Book Review by Dr. Ali Fant, WB5WAF, 12DE2007

This review is from the perspective of a former NASA Manned Spaceflight Controller, so it is more technical than expository. I first encountered Hoagland's claims through the NASA Technical Alert Briefing viewed by many controllers at the Johnson Space Center in 1989-90, found his claims creditable, and then discovered the briefing tape "disappeared" from the closed JSC Technical Library - from both the open card catalog and the closed shelf listing catalog. As a former university library page, I was shocked to find all references to the briefing tape we controllers viewed were gone two years later. When I began investigating the matter, I was told in no uncertain terms to cease any search for the missing library records.

Key Findings from Dark Mission:

1. NASA is a defense agency of the US Government per the original agency charter.

2. NASA withholds data of non-human intelligence for the good of human society per "Brookings."

3. Brookings Institution advised US in 1959 report "Proposed Studies on the Implications of Peaceful Space Activities for Human Affairs" to beware social-economic chaos resulting from alien artifacts found on the Moon or Mars as the 1938 "War of the Worlds" radio broadcast traumatized America.

4. Arthur C. Clarke based the 1968 novel/film "2001: A Space Odyssey" on the Brookings Report.
