Apollo Mission: Real or Fake ?

On the death of Neil Armstrong the Apollo Mission is being discussed every where and it is known by everyone that he is the first person to ever walk one the face of the moon but - is he actually the first person or the whole mission is just a fake ?

There has been many conspiracies attached with the Apollo mission of it being a fake and just a hoax. The main discovered about faking the whole Apollo program is to win the Space Race. Conspiracists have managed to sustain public interest in their theories for more than 40 years despite there being much third-party evidence for Apollo Moon landings and detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims. Polls taken in various locations have shown that between 6% and 20% of Americans surveyed believe that the manned landings were faked, rising to 28% in Russia. Even as late as 2001, FOX TV broadcast a documentary entitled Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon? claiming NASA faked the first landing in 1969 in order to win the Space Race and costing of the entire Apollo program was $25.4 billion in 1969

Several significant motives have been brought up, which may have caused U.S.A to fake the whole Apollo Program.

Distraction - The U.S. government benefited from a popular distraction to take attention away from the Vietnam war. Lunar activities did abruptly stop, with planned missions cancelled, around the same time that the US ceased its involvement in the Vietnam War.
Cold War Prestige - The U.S. government considered it vital that the U.S. win the space race with the USSR. Going to the Moon, if it was possible, would have been risky and expensive. It would have been much easier to fake the landing, thereby ensuring success.
Money - NASA raised approximately 30 billion dollars pretending to go to the moon. This could have been used to pay off a large number of people, providing significant motivation for complicity. In variations of this theory, the space industry is characterized as a political economy, much like the military industrial complex, creating fertile ground for its own survival.
Risk - The available technology at the time was such that there was a good chance that the landing might fail if genuinely attempted.

Many important document were also missing in Apollo program. Blueprints and design and development drawings of the machines involved are missing. Apollo 11 data tapes containing telemetry and the high quality video (before scan conversion) of the first Moonwalk are also missing. See the documentary film Did We Go?

American flag appears to be flapping as if "in a breeze" in videos and photographs supposedly taken from the airless lunar surface.

Fox Entertainment Group also listed the deaths of ten astronauts and of two civilians related to the manned spaceflight program as having possibly been killed as part of a cover-up.

Theodore Freeman (killed ejecting from T-38 which had suffered a bird strike, October 1964)
Elliot See and Charlie Bassett (T-38 crash in bad weather, February 1966)
Virgil Ivan "Gus" Grissom, Edward Higgins "Ed" White, and Roger B. Chaffee (Apollo 1 fire, January 1967)
Edward "Ed" Givens (car accident, June 1967)
Clifton "C. C." Williams (killed ejecting from T-38, October 1967)
Michael J. "Mike" Adams (X-15 crash, November 1967. The only pilot killed during the X-15 flight test program. He was a test-pilot, not a NASA astronaut, but had flown the X-15 above 50 miles)
Robert Henry Lawrence, Jr. (F-104 crash, December 1967, shortly after being selected as a pilot with the Air Force's (later canceled) Manned Orbiting Laboratory program.
NASA worker Thomas Ronald Baron (automobile collision with train, April 1967, shortly after making accusations before Congress about the cause of the Apollo 1 fire, after which he was fired). Baron was a quality control inspector who wrote a report critical of the Apollo program and was an outspoken critic after the Apollo 1 fire. Baron and his family were killed as their car was struck by a train at a train crossing. Ruled as an accident.
Brian D. Welch,a leading official in NASA's Public Affairs Office and Director of Media Services, died a few months after appearing in the media to debunk the Fox pro-Moon hoax television show cited above.

There are further many facts involved with Photographs and Films issued by NASA, Environment that astronaut have without the available technology that time , mechanical issues and some odd outcomes of the transmission between the Ground Station and the Space site which have caused these conspiracies to take birth still these conspiracies have taken the interest of the public since 1969.
