(HOAX) Chinese Lunar Rover Finds No Evidence Of American Moon Landings

Well, well, well... how long before they admit the truth on this one. I mean if they fooled the USSR into thinking they were way ahead technologically and helped avoid any military confrontation(eg nuclear) then great! Give them all a medal. But the Cold War is over, so they can admit it now and get on with proper research not based on some false technological paradigm....

China's second lunar probe, Chang'e 2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_evidence_for_Apollo_Moon_landings#Chang.27e_2), which was launched in 2010 is capable of capturing lunar surface images with a resolution of up to 1.3 metres. It claims to have spotted traces of the Apollo landings, though the relevant imagery has not been publicly identified.

While the claims of the poster in the provided link may be true, it doesn't provide detailed references which I would expect. Like a link to the Beijing Daily Express reports.
When and where did the Chinese moon rover go?
Where is a copy of the signed petition?
:suspicious:
There has been countless contradictory "proofs" about the moon landing around that it is really difficult what and whom to believe.
So - some proper references are wanted.

This has to be nonsense. Read:


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yutu_(rover)#Landing_site

This was nowhere near any of the Apollo sites. And the rover (called 'Yutu') was unable to move after the end of the second lunar night, though it continued to transmit useful data.

Even if it could move, and was near any US landing site (which would be quite something, as a feat of accuracy), its radius of travel would be so limited, compared to the area of the moon's surface, that not seeing a few remains would be meaningless.

Demoted to the HOAX section.

Did no one else notice the other obvious hoax stories on the www.antinews.in site? The entire Indiana police force quitting for example? :facepalm:

If you'd read that story you'd see it referred to a police force in a small town in Indiana with a staff of 5.
