They had on there two of the conspiracy theorists. First, this one:
Bill Kaysing: Bill Kaysing
I would like to point out that in the show, this old guy lives in a trailer with about 30 cats. Every one of his theories was debunked by the real experts in the show.
Next, Ralph Rene:
Another guy who wants to sell you something, except Ralph has a book he'd like you to purchase. Content wise you won't find anything original, and plenty of poor science. Mr Rene's qualifications amount to being a "self taught engineer". I can only guess that by this he'd like you to think he's something like Issac Newton or something. Unfortunately all his daft theories and bizarre conclusions only show just how valuable a good education is. And research, it's valuable too, but it's a concept that Rene seems unfamiliar with. He'd rather guess and make things up.
You'll not be surprised to hear that Ralph's book is self published. But that hasn't stopped it becoming something of a bible for crank sites across the web.
The interesting thing about these two men is they make all these claims, yet have absolutely no proof at all. Bill Kaysing even talks about how the moon rocks were faked by some as yet unidentified ceramics lab that Nasa has.
Also, one of the experiments that Apollo 11 set up was a set of mirrors that a laser could be bounced off of from earth. FYI, this laser bouce has been happening roughly 240 times a year, every year since 1969. The man who runs the project kind of laughed and said "I don't know why these conspiracy people just don't ask me." SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Science -- Shooting the moon
