I’m guessing the Command Module pilot would rather stick around in lunar orbit until his air ran out than leave the others on the surface.

How true Wayne. People are denying the holocaust, Jesus Christ and the Moon Missions. Somethingâ€™s are true if you believe them or not. There is no arguing with an idiot. Hats off to all the courageous men and women of the NASA.

Don’t worry Graham, conspiracy nuts are just that–nuts.

The only way to keep a secret among three people is if two of them are dead; and anything that comes along to prove what the conspiracy theory is against only becomes part of the conspiracy itself.

This just means if “we go to the moon again”, and those astronauts find what was left behind, it will simply mean the “new astronauts” are also faking it.

One thing to also consider if the Armstrong and Aldrin had been marooned then Michael Collins would have to make that long journey back home alone. I wrote a post for the 40th anniversary on this subject. http://www.blakehelms.net/2009/07/michael-collins-the-forgotten-member-of-apollo-11/

If I were up there, knowing my fate, I wouldn’t starve…I’d just go for a long walk into space…

What’s not clear here? Oh, sorry, nothing is. The fact is that until man goes [back] to the moon, we will never know if this was a hoax or not. My money is on the Chinese getting there first/next.

This is testimony to the bravery of the Astronauts.

They knew that this scenario was entirely possible before they volunteered.

Reading that article gave me cold chills. “Mission Control would have to ”close down communications” and, as the world agonized, let the doomed astronauts starve to death or commit suicide.” They’d have to cut off the communications, I suppose, so that the public wouldn’t be freaked out by the astronaut’s panicked pleas for help that couldn’t be given to them, or the sounds of their suffering. Gadzooks, what a ghastly fate!

This reminds me of Operation Dirty Trick, which you can look up on wickipedia. It has to do with blaming a possible failure of the 1962 Mercury mission and the subsequent death of John Glenn on Cuba to insight a war.
