Did the US land on the moon?

[Chaerophon]

In particular, I'm wondering how much of this evidence can be refuted and on what grounds.

Apparently you didn't read my comments very well. I was very hesitant to buy this stuff, but possess insufficient knowledge to refute it. What I wanted was "the other side", which wasn't portrayed in this presentation. Without it, yes, the information is persuasive. I merely felt that there were, no doubt, many people on the Lounge who had encountered these arguments before and could refute them. But thanks for the lecture.

Even if only a few of these objections cause doubt in your mind due to your own lack of knowledge

As I said, this was exactly the point of the post, to expand my knowledge and possibly raise some issues of debate. Nothing more.

Why the raised hackles?

The link provided later in the post was very useful as I arm myself to face the naysayers!

P.S. I don't think that the fact that I am unfamiliar with these arguments makes me

[as] gullible [as] a teenage girl.

If that was the case, I would have posted that these facts of the mission were "ironclad proof". I did not. I merely asked for some insight as to why these points, which are, at first and without specialized knowledge, quite persuasive, were perhaps not as valid as they initially appear. Nothing more, nothing less.
