And what do you think?They dont look like what he said. I dont see the massive mountains and there is not a big enough vacuum chamber to simulate the space conditions. Also, he did not send me the source so It can be anything.
The second one looks like the bombing target shown on this pageThe second one is definetly a bombing target, just look how there are circles and a crux.

for Cuddeback Dry Lake Drop Zone (towards the bottom of the page).
Otherwise no matter how inventive I am with search terms I'm not finding anything.
Expect no source to be forthcoming, or a perfectly simple explanation for the one that does.
The thing is, why even bother?Yes, I mean, If you actually were to film on earth, you will need to simulate the gravity of the moon in vacuum and I dont know of any vacuum chamber in existence that is as big as a stadium.
The technical challenges to filming on Earth are insurmountable in practical terms, IMO, and more expensive and risky than actually going to the Moon.
Have you tried the bottom image as a negative?I did, it didn't help. The second one certainly looks like some of the air-ground targets I've seen in photos and films over the years. And there's the little problem that neither of these photos remotely resemble any of the Apollo landing sites. The hoax hoaxers really need to try harder.
Picture 2 could be an electron microscope shot of a sperm fertilising an ovum for all the detail it shows!Yep, it could be any durn thing, really. It does bear a structural similarity to smartcooky's image though.
I asked him for a link to the source and Im still waiting for it.[/center]
It reminds me that my prostate needs checking out.

That was the title of his second autobiography I think (Bring on the empty horses).Ooh, yes! I picked up the latter at a thrift store, and it was quite an entertaining read. ;D
The first (The Moon's a Balloon) is equally brilliant.
Gazpar, I'm intrigued... Can you please tel us the full story of how you met, and how you are now engaging with this HB - you said he sent you these images, so this is a conversation by email? How did that arise? And what was his reason for not sourcing the images - is he no longer speaking to you?It was on facebook. I saw a image of the lunar rover of apollo 17 in some page and I saw him on the comment section saying that all was filmed on earth and blah blah blah. I confronted him and throwed those images, I asked for source and he gave me a link to a youtube video. I asked him again for the source of the photos and he did not respond.

Yes, youre right. HB's are coming with more farfetched stuff. I tells a lot about their reasoning.I asked him again for the source of the photos and he did not respond.
I daresay you have your answer, then. The verifiable provenance of the photos is the only thing that would connect them to Apollo and thereby require some kind of explanation. If he can't prove they came from NASA and were represented by NASA as aerial photos of the Apollo landing site, then all he has is two photos and a story.
I think he's doing the same as the fraudsters in the video - hoping you will just take it at face value and not ask difficult questions.
Right on point sirI think he's doing the same as the fraudsters in the video - hoping you will just take it at face value and not ask difficult questions.
Right there is one bankable difference between Apollo Believers and Hoax Believers
Apollo Believers love difficult questions because they can either answer them straight off, or are prepared to do the research to find the answers, and in do doing, take the opportunity to learn something them selves
Hoax Believers hate difficult questions because they can't answer them straight off, are not prepared to do the research to find the answers, aren't interested in learning anything, are afraid that any answer will disturb their flawed and fragile worldview.
