Moon Landing Deniers Given Proof Through Photographs From Five Different Countries

Although there is solid evidence that we landed on the Moon, there are still some conspiracy theorists who refuse to believe it ever took place.

However, with photos coming from five different countries, this might be enough to change the minds of even the most steadfast moon landing deniers.

It has been more than 50 years since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history by being the first people to step onto the lunar surface.

Armstrong famously said, “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” as he became the first to set foot on the Moon.

Soon after, Aldrin joined him, while their lesser-known crewmate, Michael Collins, remained in orbit around the Moon, piloting the command module as his colleagues planted the American flag below.

This event is undeniably one of the most significant moments in modern history.

Yet, there are still those who find it hard to believe that this monumental achievement actually happened.

The persistence of these conspiracy theories has been a source of frustration for NASA, which has spent decades presenting evidence to show that the moon landing did indeed take place.

During a lecture given in Greenwich in 2019, Professor Anu Ojha, the Discovery Director at the National Space Centre, shared his thoughts on the matter: “We find ourselves awash in an ocean of information online.”

“There has been more data produced in the last two years than in the whole of human history. This information ocean is getting more turbulent every single day.”

“The only tools we have to navigate through this maelstrom are the critical thinking skills that we are trying to develop in people as scientists.”

To add to the list of evidence, images of the Apollo 11 lander’s remains have been taken by five different countries, effectively challenging those who still deny the moon landing.

The United States, India, Japan, China, and South Korea have all captured their own photos of the Apollo 11 site, and some of these images have recently been shared on Reddit.

“The remains of Apollo 11 lander photographed by 5 different countries, disproving moon landing deniers,” wrote the Redditor who posted the images.

One image showing the shadows of Armstrong and Aldrin has been circulating on NASA’s website and is often pointed to by moon landing skeptics as evidence against the landing’s authenticity.

Conspiracy theorists argue that if the sun was the only source of light, then the shadows should be parallel. In the photo, they are not, which fuels their claims.

However, an expert has stepped in to clarify why this isn’t actually the case.

Professor Ojha explained: “This is on the surface of the Moon, but we can reproduce this effect any time we want to on Earth.”

“You have all seen this phenomenon yourself, where, because of perspective, parallel lines appear to be non-parallel.”

“If you are trying to reduce on to a two-dimensional plane a three-dimensional situation, you can make lines do all sorts of weird things. Artists have been using this for centuries.”
