Is the Moon Hoax About to Get Bigger?


Taking on the Moon Hoax
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (pictured above) is set to launch at the end of October 2008. Orbiting at only 50 km and with a camera with 0.5 m/pixel resolution, it will be able to see not only the left over Apollo hardware but other robotic mission and Russian mission remains as well. That would be a good start.
So, somebody tell me. What is NASA doing that Pixar can't do better? I can hear the Flight Director polling the stations now...
