Presumably by people on this board.NASA doesn't pay me enough for that. Not at $2 a post. In any case, I'm quite happy shilling with the odd post here and there. The money buys the drinks at Christmas. I don't think I'd go as far a murder.

Yea, pretty much fiction.It wasn't a rock, was not given to Holland and was not given by the Apollo 11 crew.
As I work in the TV industry it means if I spilled the beans about really happened with wires and sfx, I'd have to arrange for my own killing.
If you're good enough with SFX you only have to make people believe you're dead.
Apollo cameras, hey? Don't those things capture light through the eyepeice and beam that on the wall through the lens?
Such a shame what happened to that guy . . . .
It is sad, but he's the one who signed the NASA shill contract. He knew the risks...
He really will be a loss to Apollo shills. He was the main film propagandist and created a wonderful cover story that was technically faultless, covering many aspects of the alledged landings and their documentation. I hope the new Dwight can fill the gap.
Much better battery life, apparently, and improved reception from NASA HQ even when indoors....

I'm currently using Mark 2, but found I almost blurted out the 'twoof' when near my microwave oven. It was a close run thing.
Its OK Luke, you can make one of these and wear it when you are warming up that pizza slice.....
