No doubt you've all heard the theory that no one has ever walked on the moon, it was all a hoax, the supposed lunar landing shots were staged at Area 51, which is why anyone attempting to venture there is summarily shot. Well, on September 10, Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon, was giving a speech or something (he's among the most highly-paid speakers worldwide) and after some guy repeatedly requested he swear on a Bible that he really had been to the moon, Aldrin punched the guy! Anyone with a link to a news story on this, please post it.

This is Not about Buzz Aldrin...
but here is something that shows you the government does keep some info from people.

Of course a "fiction landing" on the moon, is absurd. But when Jim Irwin landed on the moon (he is the one that drove the Rover Moon Buggy ..."on the Moon"...) he had a heart attack.... tho mild enough to get back off the moon. Potassium levels fell dramatically. And the Government never spoke about it ...until years later.

In his book, The Moon is Not Enough, he talks about it. So there!

Hey, where is the "Flat Earth Society" in all this? Can't you see the moon is flat, too. Like a pancake on its side.

Time to bump all the anniversary threads!

(Not an anniversary thread, but bumping anyway. One guy kept a video log of various astronauts physically assaulting him. The reason given by Aldrin was his wife and stepdaughter were there, Aldrin felt threatened and protective of the women, and that was why he punched the guy. Don't think he has punched anyone else.)
