I was reading about this great upcoming auction of moon rocks. Which reminded me that I subscribe to the theory that has been nominated as the No.7 greatest conspiracy of mankind.
Man didn't land on the Moon. In my mind, it was a couple of cameras, and couple of brilliant geniuses. And that's all that took to cater to the mass hysteria.
Think about it, dicey technology, boxy shuttles that look like props out of an Ed Wood movie. And big mac nation obsessed about humanizing and dehumanizing celebrities.
I say they made it all up. In each theory you need three things: opportunity, motive and means.
1. Opportunity: Plenty. The highest budget, the most gullible audience, the most uninquiring media
2. Motive: To sell newspapers, magazines and tee-shirts. And provide heroes out of common man, which sells even more newspapers. It's all capitalism, baby!
3. Means: They have film technology, and enough science fiction footage to create a set which corresponds with national imagination.
And think about it, at any point, did you see neil armstrong and buzz aldrin unzipping and relieving themselves? It's freezing cold, and one-sixth gravity (or so they say), wouldn't your bladder explode in situations like this?
Let's stop this nonsense, and start revising our history books. Wouldn't our young minds be better off learning about marilyn monroe's stats anyway?
