1.
the American flag appears to be flapping as if "in a breeze" in videos and photographs supposedly taken from the airless lunar surface. -
2.
only two astronauts walked on the moon at a time, yet in photographs such as this one where both are visible, there is no sign of a camera. So who took the picture? -
3.
the astronauts made no such exclamation while on the moon, and the black backgrounds of their photographs are curiously devoid of stars -
4.
the module is shown sitting on relatively flat, undisturbed soil. According to skeptics, the lander's descent should have been accompanied by a large dust cloud and would have formed a noticeable crater -
5.
Aldrin is seen in the shadow of the lander, yet he is clearly visible. Hoax subscribers say that many shadows look strange in Apollo pictures. Some shadows don't appear to be parallel with each other, and some objects in shadow appear well lit, hinting that light was coming from multiple sources—suspiciously like studio cameras. -
6.
the astronauts' prints are a bit too clear for being made on a bone-dry world. Prints that well defined could only have been made in wet sand. -
7.

8.
