Now, this forum is famous for being able to pick a side of an argument and stay with it no matter what. 

But what have you changed your position on. For me, it was fox hunting, I was very pro fox hunting for a variety of reasons but have changed my stance because well, it's barbaric and some traditions should probably be best put to bed.

Spider famously altered his thoughts on Brexit.... anyone else not sticking to position for the sake of it?

Are we questioning all moon landings or the first one?

A bit like God. The Loch Ness Monster. Alien spacecraft and a Nandos of Middlebrook. unless I see absolute compelling evidence they exist then I will not commit to believing a tale.

IMicky D - is that rusk from your house or Google images? Used to love a rusk as a kid. Are they still as tasty?

Sorry, Google is your friend.

FFS, the Flat Earth Society could probably recruit a few from off here.

Do these same doubters also debunk the Mars rover or Galileo? Give over FFS.

Like @Underpants, I firmly believed for a long time. My dad got me and my brother up to watch it on telly so it must’ve happened.

The longer we go on, however, the greater the technological advances in just about everything. It is reckoned my phone has more computing power than the rockets sent to the moon yet we’re no longer going there with better tech. Mars and other planets look like big stars in the sky so anything happening on them wouldn’t be seen from earth by most folk with a telescope. The moon, though, you can make out craters and stuff with the naked eye so with a decent telescope ought to be able to see much more detail. Is it not strange, given any light from the moon is merely a reflection of the light from the sun, that occasionally things left up there would catch a bit of sun at the right angle and appear as a brighter point of light than the surrounding area? 

As I said, I firmly believed it happened but I’m wavering.

For a long time there was no reason to go back other than vanity 

There's now talk of getting things moving again as we are now in a position to start planning on ways of getting folk mars and beyond

Plus commercial trips 

Till now it was all about the ISS

 

The reason we never went back to the moon is because America sold it to the Rothschilds for future development.

That time is approaching.

Theyd have gone back if there was any profit to be made, but there isn’t. It’s a fucking rock in the sky.

In 66 years we've gone from not being able to fly to the Wright Brothers,Tiger Moths, Spitfires, supersonic flight and (if you believe it) on to the moon. In the 52 years after the "1st moon landing" we have not sent a man 1 inch further. That impressive upwards curve of advancement has come to a grinding stop.  Getting an elaborate remote control toy on Mars isn't in the same league as getting a man on another planet.

it's because the planets haven't suddenly got closer in that time

it takes 7 months to get to mars as things stand, the "spaceships" we use aren't like the ones in star trek or the martian, they're a bit cramped, and there's nothing to do on mars once you get there

venus is nearer but it's a bit too hot to go the other way

ISS houses 7 people at a time, does that not count in terms of advancement?

Studies suggest that due to bone and muscle wastage and the subsequent risk of fractures etc that the people best suited to the longer return trip to Mars would be non-Hispanic black males aged between 30 and 39. Bought this to mind:

 

I went down a Conspiracy theory rabbit hole once upon a time too - mainly 9/11 and still not fully decided on that.

One point that always keeps me in check about the moon landings being real though is that Russia has never challenged its validity.

Things I've changed my mind on - probably mindfulness and crypto. Probably among other things that I can't remember

Anyone ever shagged on the Ol’ ISS?

I'm no expert, but I think gravity is required if it is one's intention to try and relocate your partner's pelvis into the next postcode?

Sounds a bit of a faff in the weightlessness of space.

...Ever heard of The Great USSR Crop Failure and Famine of 1968-70?

No..?

Because the USA bailed them out of the shit, four hundred billion tonnes of food relief, in exchange for their silence over the Apollo sham.

If collectivism hadn't failed no-one would've claimed to have walked on the moon, and lived.

Mutually assured grassing - the famine put paid to that.

The moon is 1000x as radioactive as the meltdown Reaktor II at Chernobyl.

Perhaps they should have "relief" slots in the inner skin made from skin like silicone.

It sounded so mental I just thought it was one of your random surreal posts. 

Is it a genuine thing then? 

I thought I'd not followed through earlier today. I've now changed my mind 🙄
