Wire: Possible antennae.

NASA's space suits didn't have antennas.

Excuse me? I think you must be thinking of current suits... back then they indeed had an aluminium shaft, omnidirectional antenna with a high gain core.  Radio technology was not the same then as it is now and to conserve energy in the suit, the antenna was useful in allowing very low wattage transmissions by providing several dB of gain.



 

Actually, they were flat with one side black and one white.

Sorry... by saying "shaft" I guess it would be easy to assume I meant a round - post-type looking antenna.

Dyslexics are teople poo!

Argument 9: Coke Bottle

The "coke bottle" is actually a reflection from Aldrin's visor onto the camera lens, as can be seen here:




Argument 10: Manipulating and Aiming the Hasselblad Camera/Space Suits

Many photos taken by Apollo were accidental shots caused by the astronauts accidentally pressing the shutter release button.  NASA only released the good photographs.

Also, the camera was made to be operational with gloves.  The changing of the film was a simple matter of popping one out and the other in.  This was designed.

As for why the gloves look unpressurized, the pressurized part is inside, covered by an outside layer.  Here is a picture of the suit without the outside:




Argument 11: More Shadows

In the Photograph of Aldrin and Armstrong, you can tell that the terrain is uneven because the ground is not evenly lit.  Also, if it were flat and unevenly lit, that would mean two studio lights, which would mean each astronaut would cast two shadows.

The Shadow of the flag proves the terrain is not flat:




Argument 12: The Flag

The Flag is being viewed at an angle, which causes it to seem like it is held at different angles because of perspective.  This was one of the weaker arguments in the documentary.

As for why the astronaut was able to plant the flag so quickly, they could have tested the ground beforehand to find the correct location for the flag.  And 69 seconds is not that short.

As for the billowing positive/negative, you can see that that is not the exact edge, the edge is behind the first photo's positive.

nice work.  most of this has been debunked before (haven't heard the coke bottle one), but it is great to see new, independent analyses.  if all anyone did was refer to already done work, the body of evidence would not become very rich.  you really need to be in a career of...well, debunking things with diagrams or something.  (or are you already?)

btw, i wasn't aware of a coke bottle artifact or problem.  you might include a link or photo to the alleged hoax proof as well, without the superimposed visual aids?

Well, I am sort of researching each problem, not analyzing it.
