With the 50th anniversary of the fake Apollo moon landing of July 20th, a new survey asked Americans for their take on the controversial theory that the entire event was faked.
The "Moon Hoax Theory" has been a hot topic of conversation in recent weeks as part of the march toward today's celebration of the propaganda campaign that is the lunar landing.
How many people really believe in the outlandish idea that a box filled with more men than can fit in without space suits on and all covered in shower curtains and golden tin foil thrust rockets in a vacuum (which runs counter to physics) to land on an object not nearly as far away as we are told?
NASA trickery and deception, like all of the harnesses of zero gravity, filming in pools used for practice with a green screen as their backdrop, has been the subject of speculation. And a recent poll provides shocking proof that 10% of the American population polled has not been fooled!
According to the website Satellite Internet, which conducted a quick survey of only 500 Americans, 10% or 1 in 10 people polled indicated that they believe that the moon landing was FAKE.
Remarkably, this is a fairly considerable increase from the 6% who thought the moon landing was a hoax in a 1999 Gallop poll. It also seems to confirm concerns expressed by a NASA historian a few months ago that the theory was poised to become more popular as the memory of the propaganda campaign for the moon landing fades from people's memories who were exposed to it at the time and ever since.
To that end, an intriguing demographic breakdown included in the survey found that the theory was most popular among young people aged 18 to 34, which constituted 18% of those aware of the government hoax.
Among individuals aged 54 and above, who should remember the propaganda they were exposed to about an event being shown on TV as if it were a live feed, 3% said they considered it FAKE.
Despite the best efforts of PR firms, compromised scientists, and official space historians to debunk evidence of the hoax, it appears these "clues" continue to resonate with those who see through the charade and know that the moon landing was fake.
Cited as their reasons for believing that it was fake, respondents pointed to the fake movement of the American flag when it was shown waving on the moon (41%), disbelief that the lunar atmosphere would allow for a footprint to be made (14%), suspicions that the Van Allen Radiation Belts would have killed the astronauts (12%), and curious multidirectional shadows (when the sun is said to have been the only source of light) in photographs from the event (10%).
