Apollo 11 Moon Landing: Scientific Questions About NASA’s Official Evidence

Since NASA announced in 1969 the success of the Apollo 11 mission, the landing of humans on the Moon has become one of the most celebrated scientific events in history. However, rather than closing the debate, this event opened the door to widespread questions and skepticism—especially with the advancement of scientific analysis tools and digital imaging technologies.
This article does not claim definitive falsification. Instead, it aims to analyze NASA’s official evidence and transform it into legitimate scientific questions.
First: The Issue of Visual Evidence
NASA relies primarily on photographs and video recordings as proof of the Moon landing. However:
The images underwent digital processing, as NASA itself has acknowledged.
There are no publicly available raw, unedited footage versions.
The original magnetic tapes were reportedly lost, according to an official NASA statement in 2006.
A legitimate scientific question:
How can an event described as “the greatest achievement in human history” lose its original recordings?
Second: Lighting and Shadow Inconsistencies
Given that the Moon:
Has no atmosphere
Has a single light source (the Sun)
One would expect:
Parallel shadows
Extremely sharp lighting contrasts
Yet in Apollo photographs, we observe:
Shadows cast at different angles
Objects illuminated despite being located in shadowed areas
Is terrain variation a sufficient explanation?
Scientifically, some cases can indeed be explained by surface irregularities—but not all with the same level of clarity.
Third: The Radiation Question
The Van Allen radiation belts were known prior to 1969. Despite this:
No precise radiation measurements from the Apollo missions were published at the time
Most available data was released many years later
A logical question:
Why were radiation data not published immediately if the exposure posed no serious danger?
Conclusion
Claiming that all these points are merely “misunderstandings” requires stronger evidence in itself.
The absence of complete transparency naturally opens the door to scientific doubt—a doubt that is legitimate in any scientific investigation
