it seems therer are enough conspiracy theories out there that mythbusters are going to test some of them tonight on discovery.
should be interesting... i still dont know why we cant see the landing gear we left up there in telescopes...
Hubble should be able to see it.

OK, here's the official answer. The question is "Why can't the Hubble take a picture of the lander?"
"Any mirror has a smallest angular size that it can resolve. For the Hubble scope, that resolution is about .014 arc seconds in the ultra-violet (larger in the visible range). This, by the way, is a theoretical limit. The distance to the moon is about 240,000 miles. At this distance, the smallest thing that the Hubble could see would be about 86 feet across."

Noooo, no no no, I didn't come up with the answer, I just asked the question. The answer is the official NASA answer, those are the people with real brains.

mythbusters are using 2008 technology to try to bust this.

Busted that it was a conspiracy. The flag waved in the vaccum, the footprints were left in the vaccum, and the way they moved on film was the way Adam moved around in the 0g plane.

the ONLY thing that helped settle this in my mind is the laser bouncing off the mirrors they put up there. if that is true that we did put them up there back then, ok conspiracy busted. some of the special effects they used to "bust" the other conspiracies could go both ways. although, the flag makes a lot more sense now.
