Moon Hoaxes Debunked

"There's a persistent myth, still going around the internet, that we did not really go to the moon and that the Apollo moon landing was actually staged on a movie set. When a heckler taunted late astronaut Edgar Mitchell about this, he punched him in the nose, since Mitchell actually flew on one of these missions. Now the European Space Agency has launched a spacecraft that is photographing the old Apollo landing sites, that will finally put an end to this conspiracy theory."

Put an end to a conspiracy theory? Ha!

Hey Mac:
Conspiracy theories will always be with us. But the action of "punching the offender in the nose was" Buzz Aldrin, not Edgar Mitchell.

Not only was it Aldrin, not Mitchell, but Mitchell is far from "late"!
