    no silly,
    the moon was towed here by a giant spaceship, duh!
    (or is the moon itself a giant spaceship and it was 'driven' here?)
    or maybe it was towed half way and flew the rest of the way on it's own. lol

    Rasa1111 -
    You are not supposed to know what's really 'out there'.. and "they" prefer it if everyone were to keep believing the moon was grey. Though it is not. Here are the true colors of the moon. Yes, it is true color, none added.


    But if this is true, then all the NASA pictures of gray only Moon are fake. Mainly and mostly the wast numbers of Apollo pictures are fake, witch means the Apollo itself if a fake...

    Now I did not like where this is going, because that means you can fool almost whole world into believing that we CAN make it to the Moon, while we CAN'T.


    ...

    And that suxx.

    Where is the source for your image? So we can check and verify the colors?

    Yeah, the wast numbers of photos you can take of the Moon through backyard telescopes are fake too, right?

    Can anyone enlighten me on this topic?
    Simple, it has better clarity. I know that sounds strange looking at NASA's fuzzy half - blurred - feed form the space station and all. But you can get better contrast with BW images.

    This thread is drifting off topic, aside from the fact that it's almost 3 years old. Thread closed.
