National Geographic cover "Moon Conspiracy"

National Geographic cover "Moon Conspiracy" and pretty much shot the whole conspiracy theory to hell. They did a very thorough investigation unlike the conspiracy crowd there is one piece of evidence that none of the conspiracy theorist will confront is a laser reflector that was placed on the moon that is still on use today for measuring the earths movement in the solar system.

http://www.nationalgeographic.com/channel/ngcthisweek.html

I doubt that anti moon landing crowd will watch it but it does provide some good info about the Apollo program that is not normally included in other programs or books.

What about space aliens leaving the "laser" reflector behind as a beacon, huh? Didn't think of that did'ya wise guy? It's all a cover-up crafted in a Washington thinktank and produced in Hollywood with CIA dollars--come on, everyone knows that.

These guys are well paid to write convincing articles. I would have to personally walk on the moon and see this "laser" before I would buy into a crazy story like that.

I've always been on the fence about the whole moon landing. For many years I thought it was real, then I *did* think it was a fake. Propaganda to one-up the Soviets.

The one nagging thing in the back my mind is, if we were there... why the HECK have we yet to go back!!? The technology we have now for research, etc. is a great deal better... yet we keep going back to the space station...

*That* is the one thing I can't get a clear answer to.

Well we did go back and kept going back until there was no more scientific value. The Russians could hear all communication and had knew exactly what we were doing up there how come the Russians never disputed the moon landing.

Again the documentory covers every base that needs to be covered and they gave the nut jobs equal time to present their case as well.

There is a laboratory in AZ and you can see it through a real fancy telescope.

Or you could take a big risk and ask Mr Google all by your lonesome.

They probably also believe the National Enquirer.
