The Man on the Moon?

In July 1969, people around the world witnessed America’s greatest achievement: NASA succeeded in landing a man on the moon, and in the effort, won its space race against the USSR. Millions of people were breathlessly watching black-and-white images of Neil Armstrong bounding across a rocky landscape. But did these millions actually witness a man on the moon?

Many people believe in a lunar conspiracy: that the U.S. government filmed the Apollo missions in a movie studio. Conspiracy theorists doubt that NASA had technology advanced enough to send a rocket to the moon, considering that, in those days, simple calculating computers were as big as houses and were very slow. Even today, rocket scientists are unable to fire a rocket and have it land upright. Conspiracy theorists are curious: How can NASA claim to have done just that in the 1960s?

Seeing is believing, but it is the pictures NASA used as proof of the lunar landing that have raised questions. NASA took the now-famous pictures of Neil Armstrong planting a waving American flag on the moon. But considering that the moon has no atmosphere, and thus no wind, how can the flag be waving? 

More doubt about the truth of the lunar landing comes from NASA’s claim that it used regular slide film to take pictures on the moon. Conspiracy theorists point out two problems with this claim: Normal film will freeze and shatter if it gets colder than minus 20 degrees Celsius; it gets much colder than that on the moon. Secondly, there are high levels of radiation in space. Since film is sensitive to radiation (film is not even supposed to be put through the X-ray machines at an airport) how did NASA end up with pictures unaffected by it? Conspiracy theorists would like to know. ... 

带我去月球？

1969年7月，全世界的人目睹了美国历史上最伟大的成就：“美国国家航空航天局”（NASA）成功地实现了人类登月，这项壮举使美国在太空竞赛中领先于苏联。数百万观众屏息拭目观看尼尔·阿姆斯特朗跃过岩丘景观的黑白画面。但是这数百万观众真的目睹了在月球上的人吗？

许多人相信有一个“月亮阴谋”：美国政府在一座电影摄影棚里拍摄了阿波罗登月的任务。考虑到那时光简单运算用的电脑大如房屋而且速度很慢，阴谋论者怀疑NASA当时是否已掌握足够先进的科技将火箭发射至月球。甚至在今天，火箭科学家仍无法发射火箭让它笔直地登陆月球。阴谋论者好奇的是：NASA怎么能在60年代就声称他们已成功做到了呢？

眼见为实，但正是NASA用作证据的登月照片引起了质疑。NASA拍摄了尼尔·阿姆斯特朗在月球插上飘扬的美国国旗这张如今举世闻名的照片。但是想想月球上没有大气，因此也没有风，国旗又如何能飘扬起来呢？

更多关于登陆月球真相的疑惑来自NASA声称他们是用普通幻灯片在月球上拍摄的。阴谋论者对此提出两点疑问：一般的底片若置于摄氏零下20度会冻结而破裂；月球上的温度更低。第二，太空中有强烈的辐射。既然底片对辐射非常敏感（底片甚至不应该被机场的X光机检验），NASA又如何能拍出这些不受辐射影响的照片？这是阴谋论者想知道的…
