Game Over for NASA Moon-Landing Hoax

Now you're just making stuff up. Other than providing a prototype lunar module (and how NASA was convinced to do that much I don't know), they had nothing to do with the movie.

lol, so you don't know why they were involved with the movie, yet you're sure they had nothing to do with it?

that is gold.

Well, according to this writeup, one of the producers had an "in" with NASA after working with them on Futureworld, and he was able to use it:

There's no mention of any financial cooperation, and I defy you to find any.

This thread has more views than most of the pinned ones now.

Since the beginning of time, it has always been a burning subject.

rocket fuel joke, priceless.

I am usually here all night, please try the buffet.

Capricorn One is a 1977 science fiction thriller movie about a Mars landing hoax. It was written and directed by Peter Hyams and produced by Lew Grade's ITC Entertainment. It stars James Brolin, Sam Waterston and O. J. Simpson as astronauts.

Peter Hyams began thinking about a film of a space hoax while working on broadcasts of the Apollo missions for CBS. Hyams became a successful television writer and director and began writing the script for Capricorn One in the mid-1970s, but Peeper's failure jeopardized his career. Hyams and his friend, producer Paul Lazarus, were able to obtain the support of Lew Grade, head of production company ITC Entertainment, who agreed to a $4.8 million budget.[3]

To stay within the budget, NASA's cooperation was needed. Lazarus had a good relationship with the space agency from Futureworld. The filmmakers were thus able to obtain government equipment as props despite the negative portrayal of the space agency, including a prototype lunar module. The film was originally scheduled to debut in February 1978, but good preview screenings and delays in Superman caused it to move to June. Capricorn One became the year's most-successful independent film.[3]

LAZERS!!!!!!



LAZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is interesting and you make a good point about reflections off the lunar surface. It's a bit odd to see such strident hostility to your post.

OTOH, it would be a big conspiracy involving hundreds of people and thus unlikely.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.

How is a conspiracy of silence by military/government employees unlikely ?

Is a "book deal" that shills are always ranting about worth prison time for violating a national security / non-disclosure agreement? (not to mention a whole host of other possible hostilities)

I don't understand how this myth about "someone would have talked if it was a conspiracy" got started. There is no supporting evidence for such a theory.

Compartmentalization is a pretty effective process as well. There are many people directly involved that don't have to know anything more than their one little duty.

LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZEEEEEEEE​EEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!

Sorry....but this stuff is beyond stupid.
Most intelligent people have seen enough of the moon photos and the leftovers still on it from the Apollo missions to understand reality.
WE WERE THERE MULTIPLE TIMES.


You moontards are an whole new species of stupid.

always the retarded patriot, eh Derp Gummer.

The smarties dun' tell me it's real! herp derp!




Gold, Burt. Give us another gem.

It was all filmed at Area 51, that's where everything is/was stored.

Plain and simple , we did not have the technology back then to get there, ffs.

It was all a dog-n-pony show, that's it.

Like what? To say something like that, you must think you've got a real "smoking gun." So let's have it.

Aussie sheep (and sheep humpers) like you on GLP will believe anything fed to them.
You are dime a dozen.
