Persuasive Speech On The Moon Landing

On July 20th, 1969, the Apollo 11 with astronaut Neil Armstrong and his crew, guided by thousands of NASA technicians, supposedly landed on the surface of the moon. It was certainly one of the most extraordinary events accomplished by mankind up to that date. Neil Armstrong’s first words upon stepping on the moon surface will always be remembered “ A small step for mankind, a giant leap for humanity”.

Ever since then, this achievement has been a matter of discussion by several groups that either believed or disbelieved this. There are people who believe that the entire moon landing was “ The greatest government conspiracy of all time”. But the question is; why would they do that? What would be the reason for a government, who wants their country to trust them, to fake such an incredible event?

After World War II drew to a close in the mid-20th century, both the US and

This is evidence that the moon landings were faked because only two astronauts walked on the moon at a time, yet in photographs such as this one where both are visible, there is no sign of a camera. Who could have taken the picture?

He wasn 't holding it up to his visor." This evidence isn’t too reliable as it has a clear explanation as to where the camera was.

The final source of evidence is an image of Buzz Aldrin’s footprint for the studying of the moon properties. The astronauts ' prints are a bit too clear and could’ve only been made in wet sand.

‘That 's nonsense’, said Bad Astronomy’s Plait. Moondust, or regolith, is "like a finely ground powder. When you look at it under a microscope, it almost looks like volcanic ash. So when you step on it, it can compress very easily into the shape of a
