I wouldn't call the footage of the moon landing high tech. Lost in Space had better graphics than that footage.

What so STOOPID about the lymie w*ker(guy with the white hair/beard) who claims that the astronauts were suspended by guy wires is that IF that were true, then due to the fact that their backpacks weighed less then they did then the backpacks would be lifted up off the ground before the actual astronauts because greater mass ->greater inertia! The *glint* is easily explainable by the reflection of sunlight off the astronauts helmet and the relatively low resolution of the camera. This is perfectly explainable by optics and is an optical ILLUSION.

I find it hard to believe that they were able to make a successful journey to the moon back in the early 60's. I think that the US was desperate to beat the USSR back then and wanted to boost patriotic pride.
Um, it was 1969 that the first manned lunar landing took place and 1968 that the first manned lunar orbit occured. We are taking about the
Late 60s, thank you.And there is
No possible way for anyone at NASA to have known what the lunar surface actually without actual photographs FROM the surface of the Moon!
