Neil Armstrong
Neil Armstrong (August 5, 1930 – August 25, 2012) was an American astronaut and the first person to walk on the Moon. He was mission commander of the Apollo 11 moon landing in July 1969.
Witness, again, this dramatically strange clip from the first press conference held after Apollo 11′s return from mankind’s historic first visit to the moon.
They’ve just returned, triumphant, from a successful landing on the moon. You’d think they’d be jubilant.
So, why are they so nervous?
Neil Armstrong , clearly nervous . . . about what?
Apollo 11 crew members (L-R) Edwin Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins during the first press conference after their historic first lunar landing mission. Apollo 11 returned to Earth on July 24, 1969; this post-flight press conference was held on August 12, 1969 in Houston, Texas.

Here they are the night before the Apollo 11 launch. All three astronauts seem relaxed and happy. Compare this to the photo of the astronauts after their return. See the difference? One might think, if they were going to be nervous that they’d be nervous before the launch–not after their return. Strange, no?

Are you inferring they are nervous because it was all fake?
idk. What do you think?
The question of their nervousness is valid even if we don’t know the reason “why”.
I think there is a lot of compelling evidence that it is a hoax. Their actions from these videos absolutely looks like he is nervous and lying… very inconsistent with how i would imagine he should be. His body language and speech sounds so uncomfortable. Enron and the Manhattan Project prove the ability to keep huge secrets within a major operation through need to know pyramid hierarchy. The light source discrepensies. Nasa apparently losing the original space walk videos. Not returning back to the moon. The arguement that living things cant get out of the radiation belt. Its not like anyone has much to gain by spending all their time proving we didnt go their. Sure it might sell some books, but i doubt authors covering the subject are intentionally spreading lies. I read somewhere that we were congradulated by the Russians. So i can only think of 3 posibilites. We fooled the Russians. They were in on the hoax. Or we really went there.
By the way I’m a former student and i love the blog topics. Have you seen the clip of the Aurora Police Chief pleasing the FBI agent standing behind him during a press conference? When reporters repeatedly ask if there were cameras around the theater, the police chief ignores the question several times, and the FBI agent clearly smiles and nods to himself.
Adam, Enron and the Manhattan Project, Really? It’s been 40 years since we landed on the moon and nothing but the same ridiculous evidence of a hoax is presented how many years until we knew about your examples?
I would agree that to someone who isn’t a physicist or expert in certain fields some of the “evidence” might seem strange but with a little research any intelligent person can see why things are the way they are. (Or they can just watch the Myth Busters!)
But yes this is truly compelling evidence that the moon landing was a hoax. Three career military guys suddenly become the most famous people in the world and they seem a little nervous on camera! Wow, now I am convinced.
Our man in history no doubt.
