Buzz Aldrin, the second
Astro-not to walk on the Moon, punched a man in the face after he
had confronted the former astronaut at a Beverly Hills hotel.
Bart Sibrel - who has made
a film questioning the Apollo Moon missions - had demanded that Mr
Aldrin, 72, swear on the Bible that he had in fact walked on the
Moon.
Prosecutors declined to
file assault charges against Mr Aldrin.
Picture Proof?
Co-conspirator one:
A private company,
Transorbital, says they will place a private high-resolution
satellite into orbit around the Moon. It should have the power to
see the Apollo hardware left on the surface. (Can't meet launch
schedule, will get back to us)
Co-conspirator two:
Astronomers hope to kill off the conspiracy theory once and for all
by using the Very Large Telescope (VLT) - by far the most powerful
telescope in the world - to spot the Apollo lunar landers. Operated
by European astronomers in the Chilean Andes, the VLT consists of
four mirrors 27ft across linked by optical fibres. It can see a
single human hair at a distance of 10 miles. (That was 11/2002,
where are the pictures?)
