This is the third in a series of videos explaining the basic evidence that proves we landed on the moon in 1969 and thereafter. Movie #3 deals with our space race competitors, the Russians, the only other country even close to a moonlanding, and how they admit to every aspect of our men on the moon. They are the ones to know.
As a Science Teacher at heart, I was personally disgusted at the ridiculous preponderance of "APOLLO WAS A HOAX" websites proported by those who are the most ill-informed and conspiracy minded of our society. Certain science teachers have complained to NASA that this hysteria has gone on long enough, and I happen to agree. This is my response.
Here are the positive and proactive pieces of evidence that the hoax believers always try to avoid like the plague. These are definitive areas of examination that are tangible, touchable, and open for scientific debate. The hoax believers might be really proud of their lost shadows, wrong reflections, and scrubbed sand; but now, here is the evidence that is up to them to DISPROVE, the evidence they coincidentally forget to mention on nearly every webpage or TV special I have come across, and we have to wonder why.
I originally aimed these movies at a high school audience, students untainted by the paranoid minutia of the hoax believers, students who are simply looking to find the truth for themselves in a sea of misinformation. As such I do not address every nickel and dime screwball argument, as they are exactly that: screwball arguments enacted only by the dimwitted who have only the most superficial science background whose main arguing tactic is merely to read someone else's webpage and parrot it verbatim. Hearing a big word on TV and then repeating it in an effort to sound smart is not debating, its begging for attention.
These videos on the other hand, deal in facts only.
I originally made these 4 years ago as a project for my Educational Technology graduate course. As such they are a little rougher around the edges than my more recent productions, which is why I posted them under this name rather than my real name SpreadingTheMuse. Look under that name to find my current productions such as The Physics of Starship Battles and Mathematics videos. If the demand is good enough, I can produce more videos debunking virtually any topic that can be brought up.
Conspiracy lunatics, you arent really welcome here, and I will delete any post where it is obvious that you are just repeating big words you read somewhere else attempting to sound smarter than you actually are.
