Considering that its much easier to land something on the moon than it is to land it on the earth (since Earth has more gravity + atmosphere which = trouble landing and taking off) Im pretty much of the idea that if they can make it to outer space landing on the moon really would be a simple task. So I pretty much think its crazy to say it was staged if you believe that modern man can actually travel into space.
Plus there are several countries working to put a person on the moon and Im pretty sure the US is actually looking at heading back there in the next 15 or so years.

Why was the flag moving on the wind when there's no wind on the moon?
Staged. But that was brilliant...in a way...
( you want the other thread reported because sth went wrong with the last poll choice? )
I'll post twice too then
no there were stints that held the flag straight out, it wasnt moving
i see no stints in this pic
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Buzz_salutes_the_U.S._Flag.jpg Well I went to the discussion page for that picture, and it was mentioned that the flag was made of nylon and with wires along the back to hold it still, it was also rolled up, so typically when you roll something like a wire, its very difficult to get it to go back to a perfectly straight position, so it really does explain the appearance of it seeming to have been blowing in the wind even though there is no wind on the moon.
