Quote:
There was Kyrie Irving's flat-earth theory (though he later retracted it), and now Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry has said he doesn't believe that humans ever landed on the moon.


How long before he retracts--or "clarifies"?

I did not listen to the podcast but apparently there was laughter happening when he said this and he left it open as to whether or not he was serious. So needless to say I am hoping he was not.

This theory is more plausible than the Earth being flat, I'll give him that.

Yeah, but how do you really know? Leo sank with the Titanic, the First Man just went to the motion pictures in 2018. Tom Hanks was on Apollo 13. Unless, you're a first person participant, how do you know what you're presented with are productions vs real, whatever real is.

I can show my children Apollo 13 and tell them it's the real footage, and they'll believe it because they don't know any better. Do we really know any better when Nasa shows us "proof?"

If you can get access to the proper laser you can actually bounce a laser off the mirrors left on the moon. These types of mirrors are not naturally occurring. To say Apollo 11 was not a real landing is at least somewhat supportable for entertainment value, but to say no apollo mission landed on the moon is 100% proven false because of the scientific equipment left behind.

1. It is weird that young mega millionaires still seek so much additional attention.

2. Why does the media even give coverage to these ignorant statements.

1. Cause they'll get that extra attention

2. Cause we will read and give them that extra attention... We'll even discuss it in forums

Steph Curry says he was joking about not believing in the moon landing and everything is fine

It looks like it took a day to clarify

The Apollo 11 video footage of them on the moon always made me skeptical. But just specifically that footage.
Of course we landed on the moon. Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17.
Tom Hanks screwed up 13.

Again, unless you were there, how do you really know? What if Buzz is part JFK's "Make America Great Again" conspiracy? You know the one that says we need to get to the moon before Russia, and by the end of the decade. Lo and behold they did it! Now, he has to carry on his whole life retelling the movie they shot as if it's real. And if you told me you where there, how do I know you're telling the truth unless I was there with you? The only thing you can prove real are your own experiences.

I'm playing devil's advocate, but I do think it's a bit strange with all the advancements we haven't gone back there. No plans to build stations, jails, etc. LOL! I would love to send all criminals to the moon.

^Even if man went back to the moon who's to say conspiracy theorist would believe that trip happened?

Just think what will happen when enough dust covers the lunar reflectors to where they no longer work. Only four of the Apollo astronauts who went to the moon are still alive.

Simply put, it costs a lot of money to travel to the moon....I believe the NASA budget at the time was 3% of the total US budget....it has never been close to that ever again. It would probably only make financial sense to have a station on another planetary body if there was resources that are worth mining that it more than offsets the costs to build a spacecraft to travel there.
