Wich was the greatest feat: First man in space or first man on the moon?

Heck..we left the bottom parts of the landers for each moon landing. You'd think someone would take a high powered telescope and just focus in on those areas. The fact that Russia didnt do this during the middle of the Cold War is proof enough to me that it wasnt a hoax. Imagine the coup they could have scored with that?

Unless, of course, as has been suggested by some conspirator theorists, some of the Russian missions were faked. For instance, the space walk might've been done in a water tank. So if Russia had exposed America, then America would've exposed Russia.

It will be interesting to see just how successful the Chinese space program will go.

And isn't Japan suppose to be sending a satellite to the moon soon, or have they already? I think it was supposed to be in 2001.
 
How come in all the pictures of Earth from the moon there are no stars? The moon has no atmosphere -- we should be able to see a kazillion stars.

:mad:

Stop quoting the damn conspiracy theories. There are sites and books dedicated to giving counters to them. Go read a few of them first and then make up your mind.

In this particular case...
