| Aug 10, 2023 at 18:30 | comment | added | Shadur-don't-feed-the-AI | @ATL_DEV The Manhattan Project leaked like a sieve -- for one, a particular science magazine figured out something was going on in the desert because every single physicist in the country had changed their subscription address to the same location. It's just that it was wartime and people had a sense of responsibility about it. | |
| Mar 15, 2023 at 16:17 | comment | added | ATL_DEV | @MattZabojnik Doesn't make a difference. The Manhattan project kept information regarding the a-bomb from leaking. Likewise, the Apollo Program, according to the hoaxers, kept the hoax from leaking. Just because something is seen on TV by millions of people, doesn't make it anymore true than seeing Martians on TV. | |
| Feb 13, 2023 at 19:13 | comment | added | Matt Zabojnik | Poor comparison. The Manhattan Project was not televised to the whole world, live, for ten years like the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo Projects. Doing something in secret when the goal is to keep it a secret, is very different than doing something on the world stage, while trying to fool everyone on the planet into believing your hoax. | |
| Feb 9, 2023 at 3:54 | comment | added | ATL_DEV | Not a very good argument. The manhattan project involved thousands of workers all over the country, yet it was kept secret from the public. Thousands of soldiers witnessed the Atomic tests at close ranges and suffered physically and psychologically, yet their stories were only made public decades afterwards. | |

Added information from commentators.

| Jan 21, 2019 at 0:01 | comment | added | Anthony X | @MattZabojnik Your wording suggests that the NASA mission controllers are the targets of the deception, where the true targets of the deception would have to be anyone and everyone in the world capable of eavesdropping on would be a real mission e.g. the Soviets. | |
| Jan 20, 2019 at 23:01 | comment | added | Matt Zabojnik | @Anthony X, I directly mentioned fake telemetry and bogus data for TLI, LOI, TEI, and more. The probe info is good, but I don't know what you're trying to say with the telemetry and TLI comment... | |
| Jan 20, 2019 at 22:25 | comment | added | Uwe | But faking would not end after the Apollo mission. Faking the presence of the lunar retroreflectors during all the years up to now would be extreamly difficult. Not only for a single national telescope but for all international old and new telescopes doing lunar laser range measurements. | |
| Jan 20, 2019 at 19:44 | comment | added | Anthony X | You've neglected to consider the logistics of faking the mission before an international audience of space experts, especially in what was then the USSR, who had already flown multiple space missions and had launched a lunar probe at about the same time as Apollo 11 (both were enroute to the Moon at about the same time). Spacecraft radar returns and telemetry would have to be faked, a vehicle launched to Earth orbit but never executing TLI would have to be masked upon the bogus TLI event, and it goes on... | |
