Tether Incident

If NASA faked the moon landings, does the agency have any credibility at all? Was the Space Shuttle program also a hoax? Is the International Space Station another one? Do not dismiss these hypotheses offhand. Check out our wider NASA research and make up your own mind about it all.

Nasa & other very clever folk say the 'anomalies' are caused by out of focus dust or debris (which seems right)...

Conspiracy theorists point out that the 'anomalies' cannot possibly be dust in the vacuum of zero-G outer space because of the 'impossible' 'maneuvering' (which is right)...

The two sides have been 'debating' about this video for decades with seemingly no-one pointing out that it is painfully & obviously an underwater forgery... the most scientifically plausible explanation of the 'anomalies' is that NASA fakes its footage.
