Apollo 14 astronaut claims aliens and UFOs are real.

[E30Kaiser]

I dunno about some of these claims of alien contact - at times those recounts can seem a bit far fetched, yet there are some which seem plausible. However, the universe as we know it is quite vast and I don't believe we are the only ones in existance.

Then of course thers's the government cover-up conspiracy crowd.....that's a whole new can of worms.

The question isn't do they exist, it is do they come here? And if so why do they put things up our butt? If this guy is right and they have made contact I am very happy as it means that we don't have to worry about alien invasions hopefully. I am steal hoarding weapons though so I can yell "wolverines!" when the first laser is fired.

Are you serious with this, or are you just joshing?

Sort of. I'm one of those psychos that isn't totally convinced the first moon landing was real. I'm not saying it didn't happen, and I'm sure there's no way to prove it, but I'm just not convinced. I never have been. During that time in our country's history, we would have done ANYTHING to beat the Russians to the moon. Including staging and lying about it. Is it really that far fetched?

Red Dawn = Ruskies.
Alien Contact = Mars Attacks!

You should bulk up on your Duck Hunt, not load up on "manmade weapons"

The lazer sender mirrors are fake too?

The what?

[Farbin Kaiber]

They placed retroreflectors to measure the distance between earth and the moon with lasers. There are retroreflectors on the moon.

They probably receive some butt secks internet feeds from here and figured that was the best way.

Sounds awesome. Again, I didn't say it never happened. It probably did. But there's a lot of unanswered questions about the landing and the activities that took place during their walks, such as problems with the photographs, temperature differences, etc. I'm just a skeptic, that's all. It's my nature.

They will give you the exact location of the mirrors to bounce your own laser off it. They measure the distance every day at the McDonald observatory here in Texas. I still don't know if the FIRST time we went was real. But we have been there.

Its easily proven by pointing Hubble to the moon. About impossible from earth though, as its too far away and the distortions from the atmosphere would blur anything that small.

Most of the problems with the photographs were easily debunked by referring to the originals. The problem is that most skeptics are using copies of copies of copies that have degraded over time.

And what activities specifically are you concerned with? As for the temps have you seen the 100lb suit with the built in climate control system? (even then they wouldnt dare go out in the dark).

I fully believe we went to the moon and everything but I have always wondered how the camera work at the beginning of this famous footage was done. http://youtube.com/watch?v=-FmdZH2CUXg Its really the only thing that would ever make me think there was a camera man lol.

I want to say auto focusing/auto tracking camera, But I want to believe they left someone there!

That actually has an interesting story behind it. See it takes about 1.5 seconds for a radio signal from earth to reach the moon. That camera was remote controlled from the earth, and the "camera man" sitting at a console, had to time the shot 1.5 seconds in advance - it was one of the last missions, and it involved a bit of luck to get that shot - all the ones before it were a locked down shot iirc.
