Been doing a lot of reading about the USA's Mercury, Gemini and (especially the) Apollo programs, including Craig Nelson's quite fascinating book below. Seems to me the persistent conspiracy theory of a faked moon-landing is rather far-fetched; couldn't multiple, independent Earth-bound observers track the spacecraft on its way to Luna, using radar? Haven't subsequent unmanned probes taken high-resolution photographs of the Apollo 11 landing site, with physical evidence of that mission in sight? Opinions? I'm no scientist or astronaut, and have never left Earth. So I continue to be captivated by this perplexing debate.
