woah...how fake does that look!

With these pics, I'm questioning if man ever landed on the moon, although I've always been doubtful

We never landed on the moon. Ye only have to watch the banned video that was made by Fox called "Did We Land On The Moon" to be re-assured that we didnt do it.

I used to had it on Divx about 2 or 3 years ago but can't seem to find it now.

I found the documentary on YouTube so ive started a new thread here to keep this thread on topic.

The Rosette Nebula - A huge cloud of glowing gas heated by stars created only a few million years ago when a giant molecular cloud collapsed.

The Spirit rover instructed to closely inspect some interesting rocks near the summit of Husband Hill, September 2005.

The Panoramic Camera captured the rover's Instrument Deployment Device above as it moved to get a closer look at an outcrop of rocks named Hillary.

Spirit, and its twin rover Opportunity, have been exploring Mars for more than three years.

International Space Station

The eighth planet from the Sun, Neptune was the first planet located through mathematical predictions rather than through regular observations of the sky.

Neptune was discovered in 1846. Seventeen days later, its largest moon, Triton, was also discovered.

Nearly 4.5 billion kilometers from the Sun, Neptune orbits the Sun once every 165 years, and therefore it has not quite made a full circle around the Sun since it was discovered. It is invisible to the naked eye because of its extreme distance from Earth.

Interestingly, due to Pluto's unusual elliptical orbit, Neptune is actually the farthest planet from the Sun for a 20-year period out of every 248 Earth years.

The Great Dark Spot is believed to be a storm similar to, but only half the size of, Jupiter's Great Red Spot. While Jupiter's Great Red Spot has been raging for at least 400 years, subsequent observations of Neptune's Great Dark Spot in 1994 by the Hubble Space Telescope revealed that this storm has since disappeared.

Neptune's clouds are driven by winds of 1,200 mph, the fastest winds of any planet in the Solar System.

Curvature of the Earth from space

Ye want to know what time and space looks like:

The messy looking object stuck to the space shuttle is the Mir Space Station. Now back to earth, albeit somewhere in the south pacific. Long live the USSR!
