conspiracy?

i'm of the opinion that the 1969 moon landing by the americans was all fabrication. there's no way with the technology available in the 60's that they were able to do it, safely, without a hitch... since then they've had numerous problems simply just launching a spacecraft never mind launching, navigating, landing, taking off again, re-entering the earth's atmosphere etc. all without any major problems...

i saw 'footage' of this supposed moon landing the other day on the discovery channel. the funniest thing was that when they left the surface of the moon, they seemed to have left some-one behind to film it!

so when i read this story today, i think that they'll never find this footage. i'm also wondering why they don't seem to be bothered by not having found it for a year already? is it because it never existed? plus, if they did find the footage, it'll probably not work because it has degraded over the years. how convenient.

"Because Nasa's equipment was not compatible with TV technology of the day, the original transmissions had to be displayed on a monitor and re-shot by a TV camera for broadcast."
