redbaron7 writes "The BBC is reporting that NASA has cancelled plans for a book to challenge the Moon Hoax Conspiracy Theory, due to criticism. No doubt the cancellation of this book will be listed as further "evidence" that the landings were fake."

    Isn't this the silliest thing that they've ever thought about. Why would NASA feel the need to invest millions to rebuke the silly claims made by a few irresponsible socialist trolls?

    Lets face it, free speech is supposed to be one of the cornerstones for Democracy and America but I have to wonder how much damage it really causes when I read stories like this. Perhaps the movement by Bush and Ashcroft to limit these rights will be a good thing long term and help to control some of the damage done by these nefarious post modern trolls.

    Warmest regards,

    Because that would be a waste of Hubble time. You can see the landing sites from the earth with a good telescope. if the moon is in the right position, anyway.

    If people *want* to believe something, nothing they say or do can prove otherwise.

    Of course, take all that stuff about a guy named Jesus and certain alcoholic beverages.
