'Pluto Truthers' Are Pretty Sure That the NASA New Horizons Mission Was Faked

Posted by samzenpus on from the never-happened dept.

MarkWhittington writes: Forget about Apollo moon landing hoax theories. That is so 20th Century. Gizmodo reported that the "Pluto Truthers" have followed the astonishing images being sent back by NASA's New Horizons probe and have come to the conclusion that they are faked. After all, if the space agency could fake the entire moon landing, it would be child's play to fake a robotic probe to the edge of the Solar System.

    At what point did Americans substitute the word "truther" for "crackpot"?

    On that note I am done reading this discussion, a few comments in. I advise the same to everybody else.

    Clearly you are a shill, hired by NASA, as part of the conspiracy to silence those of us not afraid to speak the truth. Pluto IS a **PLANET**, and this probe didn't go there. Look how bright the images are. There is no way a **PLANET** 7.5B km from the sun could be so bright. And the shadows are all wrong.
