I believe the greatest debunking of the conspiracy theories came from this guy:
If you don't take the time to watch it the basic premise is that the video technology required to fake the moon landing simply didn't exist. To argue the moon landing was faked you would necessarily have to argue it was done with some unknown technology. Specifically they did not have anywhere near the capability to store that amount of live continuous footage and they would had to fake that footage for hours upon hours without making a mistake.
Mythbusters also did a pretty good show busting up the most common theories in detail destroying them one after another.

First off, the LEM is built very substantially, even though it was not subjected to stesses of air drag, and only had to land in 1/6 gravity of the moon. I know because I've been in and around one of the 12 LEMS that Grumman built - the one that is now in the Nassau County Cradle Of Aviation Museum. The gold foil heat shielding just hides and protects equipment under it from exteam solar radiation because of lack of atmosphere on the moon.
Second, is the flag "flying in the breeze" excuse. You an clearly see in pictures that there is a rod in the top of the flag holding it out for photo shoots because there is no wind on the moon.
And last, anyone with a good telescope can see the LEM lower stages that were left behind.
She should stick to smoking whatever is in that pipe and not try to talk about things she knows nothing about.

That was one of the segments on Mythbusters, they replicated it in a vacuum. In fact with no atmosphere it can move more freely, moreso on the moon with the low gravity.
Next!

Grumpy, the first video I posted covers this in detail and why they couldn't do that. They were only able to record a few seconds of video at the time and if they did it with film the reel would have been impossibly large and it would also be impossible not to make a mistake.

Possibly true. Our perception of space and time may be an illusion created by something we don't understand. In quantum physics entangled particles at a distance can share information instantly breaking the fundamental law that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. This brings into question what space and time is.
Applied in the real world it will be the next generation of computing. Bring on the Terminators.

I have to believe we landed on the moon cuz if i dont I wont be able to believe anything that happened in my childhood. It was an exciting time as a child after all the bad crap that was going on. But yes, the world is flat
