Footprints? Answer - Particles of moon dust have a different size and shape from sand and don't need moisture to hold a compressed shape. Many powders on Earth can behave in the same way. Try walking in spilt talcum powder

No Blast Crater? Answer - At first glance, conspiracy theorists have a point here. There should be a blast crater beneath the landing module - that is, if it were making its landing on Earth instead of a lower gravity environment. Landing on the Moon requires far less thrust than is necessary on Earth since there is far less gravitational pull.

Additionally, the landing module set down on solid rock and left no more of a crater than a 747 jet would on the runway at an airport. The lack of a crater actually supports the authenticity of the Moon landing, because if they were perpetuating a hoax, it stands to reason NASA would have also thought of a blast crater and made sure there was one in place to satisfy the critics. The fact of the matter is there was no crater created by the actual landing, and they did not feel compelled to dig one so that their landing would appear more authentic.

From your starting point every possible explanation is dismissed with - corruption. It is the same with virtually all conspiracy theories.
Trust me I have said many times that I was brain washed and believed what they told me to be true.

The point I was making about the footprints is that the actornauts are heavy enough to leave footprints, but the module isn't? You can clearly see the pads resting on dirt/ sand/ dust whatever, with no dust settling on them after landing. Try jumping in talcum powder and not getting any dust on you.

The module being hoisted up.

Suspicious objects in visor reflections.

Watching the film in 2x speed just looks they are walking on earth.

Like I said, I could go on and on, and you could post the cover stories. But ask yourself, why would I want to deceive you? Have I ever been dishonest or have you caught me in a lie, the whole time I have been on this forum? I think I'm a pretty straight up guy. All I'm asking is that you think for yourself and then decide based on the actual evidence. But I guarantee that the government has lied and deceived you.

30 billion dollars and they lost all the data and audio tapes and destroyed the technology? Come on. And no one cares?

You can repeat everything they say and believe it, but like I said before if you look at the things that you might have some experience with, because neither of us will ever go to space, take the race example I used. You should have experience around something similar. So I win the race to the shop and you just quit?

Or you went somewhere for the first time in 1969 but are unable to go back there today.

Simple questions.
