You mean the conspiracy theory? It was always busted. Every single argument that the conspiracy theorist put forth was easily destroyed.
But reason is not something that these people care about. It never was. I am sure that they will claim that these pictures dont count, since NASA could have faked them too.
These sorts of conspiracy theories are good business too. They sell lots of books and videos and even TV- shows on FOX.

This reminded me of the whole "face on mars" debate that lasted quite a few years.
It is always funny to see how quickly these conspiracy believers switch to another subject once their theory has been disproved.

Yep. They will soon pretend that a new secret moon program to land fake Apollo hardware, etc, was carried out in the interim, to cover up the fake moon landings of the 40 years ago.

Why would they need to claim that? I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but certainly it would be a lot easier to fake pics from an orbiting probe that the video on the surface...

Duh, the pics are by NASA, of course they photoshopped them to have the landers in them. Cant you see how the shadow of that one lander is not completely parallel by 0.0001 degree? If it was on the moon the shadows would have to be completely parallel, everyone knows that!
I am sure we will hear something like that. Nutbags like Bart Sibrel wont shut up until Buzz punches them in the nose

Could watch that over and over again and then some more

I know these conspiracy theory scumbags, and they wont change their idiotic opinions even if you take them to the moon and rub their faces against lunar regolith and leave them to die in the hard vacuum (remember, you just rubbed their faces against the ground, so they have no masks).
when the previous, lower resolution photos were shown, they didnt believe it either.

The point is that's those kooks think.

Buzz Aldrin Reveals Existence of Monolith on Mars Moon
Phobos monolith
To me it looks like that golfball Alan Shepard put into an earth-moon system escape trajectory during Apollo 14. No impact ejecta though...odd.
There's more intrigue on Mars proper:

Oh dear! There we go again!
Like the Mars Face it is just an example of pareidolia but I am sure that someone will make a conspiracy of some sorts of it.

I'll start one.

I watched and felt a saturn 5 rocket lift off. The sound itself made my pant legs flap. Utterly awe inspiring. Imagine riding that machine into orbit, then proceeding to the moon for a landing.

I checked that while I was in HK/Shenzhen, is not Polywell related.
I think you need another source to start your conspiracy group

And imagine how different the world would be if everyone had that experience.

I envy you, it must have been the show of a lifetime.
You can fell the power of that beast from the videos, but feeling it from a real experience...... I really can't imagine it.
