Conspiracy Theorist/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

* Why do many (but to be fair not all) of the people who insist the Moon Landings were faked also believe that the government of the time had secret high technology (from aliens or secret science programs or whatever) stashed away somewhere like Area 51? The two theories <ref> except for the wackiest of the wacky who think that the reason the moon landings were faked was to cover up that there was actually aliens or something else on the Moon.</ref> are completely incompatible. There are ''so'' many people that can vouch to the validity of the moon landings, and since it happened during the Cold War and a lot of the reasoning behind the space program was to show off to the USSR anyway, the USA had every motivation to use high tech if they had it.

** Agreed. I think it's telling that ''nobody'' from NASA has come out and said "Yes, I participated in a cover-up." It would be VERY difficult to maintain a cover-up involving that many people.
