Surely everyone has heard about a certain "Conspiracy Theories". He notes that the mission of Apollo 11 was wrong and the pictures that were taken on the moon really were made on Earth. But in the program "Myth Busters, " the presenters stated that these pictures will surely be made on the moon. People said yes because the images presented the American flag nodding and because there is a vacuum in space, witch would not allow it. In addition, there were people casting shadows that were not consistent with the angle of incidence of sunlight. It was also mentioned that while an astronaut was going out of the spacecraft it was lit, but actually the light was covered already mentioned spacecraft so it was impossible to be seen. At present we know that the mission of Apollo 11 was authentic.
