A 1969 photo showing Armstrong, or anyone, really, standing on the surface of the "moon."
LEBANON, OHIO—Apollo 11 mission commander and famed astronaut Neil Armstrong shocked reporters at a press conference Monday, announcing he had been convinced that his historic first step on the moon was part of an elaborate hoax orchestrated by the United States government.
According to Armstrong, he was forced to reconsider every single detail of the monumental journey after watching a few persuasive YouTube videos, and reading several blog posts on conspiracy theorist Ralph Coleman's website, OmissionControl.org.

1. People consider "The Onion" a credible source. Apperently a Bangladeshi newspaper, the Daily Manab Zamin, actually ran this story as true not realizing the nature of "The onion' To their credit,t hey have since retracted their story and apologized.
2. People actually believe Armstrong said anything remotely like what he is "quoted" as saying.
BTW, the flag didn't "ripple", it had been packed tightly and was creased. Watch the films, Moonies, it doesn't move.
