Do you believe..

I've never had a time delay while talking to people in other countries, and that includes talking 10-12000 miles via satellite.

At 300,000 Km/ sec (the speed of light, which is the speed radio communications travel in a vaccum) the time lag between earth and the moon at the average orbital distance would be 1.3 seconds. that's not much of a lag at all.

The camera, being designed for the environment is was being used in would not fry or freeze, nor would the film. They were using Hasselblad cameras, which were top of the line equipment. The Video footage that was sent back was Very grainy.

Here's a site that debunks the photo anomalies:

Beliefs (intangibles) which cannot be backed up by concrete evidence are just that, beliefs.

There is far too much concrete evidence that the moon landings happened, to include the astronauts that went on the missions, the material brought back, the thousands of personnel involved in the project, the spacecraft themselves, etc.

Correct, which could all be fake. As in, they are all in on the fake story.

I've talked to people via Sattelite phone in Christmas Island and there was a time delay.
Geesh, there's even a time delay on news casts.

The time delay on news casts is put in by the networks to avoid any oopsies.

One other thing I forgot........there were 20,000 + sailors involved in recovering the apollo craft. If there was a secret to be kept, trust me, it would have been out by now.

That's an opinion.

What do you mean "oopsies" The time delay is very remote just a few seconds. Doesn't sound like my of a precaution to me.

In newscasts and most "live broadcasts, there's usually a 7-second delay, so they can delete profanity, or bleep it out anyway.

LOL! I can't believe anyone is seriously having this conversation! Thanks for the laugh, anyway. (I mean this in good humor, nobody get offended, ok?)

The time delay put in by the networks is 3-5 seconds, which is plenty of time to catch any misspoken words or anything that the mike picks up from someone other than the reporter.

The maximum time delay possible with terrestrial communications would be you calling someone standing next to you with a phone cable stretched around the globe (40076 KM), which would give you a .13 sec lag. With a satellite phone, again assuming maximum distance(ground to geosynch orbit to ground, with 20000 km on ground in between), would be .3 sec. Almost noticeable, but by experience your brain tends to amplify the lag because you aren't used to hearing it.
