The Moon Hoax

Today in class, we're going to watch Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon? If you miss this, you can watch it on YouTube on your own. (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5)

Phil Plait started writing about all the inaccuracies in this on his Bad Astronomy blog years ago. Several groups have posted video responses included National Geographic, Penn and Teller, and Mythbusters. Here are some clips from that episode of Mythbusters.
