I say again, anyone who looks at that and simply tries to claim it is faked is delusional. When you watch this on a large screen, such as a smart TV, you can see Schmitt throwing his hammer and it glints in the sky a short while after. So yes. I am saying that in 1972 nobody could manufacture an absolutely identical set with humans on that then, in continuous footage magically became the "lunar launch set".
You are free to make this claim.
And you are free to run away from it with hand waving and unscientific bollocks. To claim that those two scenes are different and that one has had astronauts added is just stupid beyond words. It's exactly what HBs do, they cry fake at things that are just obviously not fake.
Yes, I'm free to make my fully substantiated claim, it renders this whole thread moot!
Now suppose you explain with more than what you have thus far supplied (sweet FA) how on Earth they do those scenes and logically why the hell even bother doing it.
It is perfection. Schmitt chucks a hammer and we see it glinting in the air. He's next to the same LM that shortly after launches off of the lunar surface.
Likewise, I'm saying that:
Instead of posturing like the character Golum in LOTR, just before he falls into the lava, why don't you drop your attitude and learn from an expert. Your whole claim of some sort of equilibrium in this series of debates is horrifically misguided. You are finding these piddly little things "wrong" with what you see and think they outweigh the vast body of evidence across every aspect of every mission.
To paraphrase Dara Ó Briain - some eejit who pulls his tooth out with a piece of string tied to a door, doesn't get to argue with a professor of dentistry!
