    Not really worried about the moon, would sure like to test that World Trade Center steel that they shipped over to China so quickly.

    No, that was what made me think. How many passes at 100m will you have to do to see all of Asia? And then, the earth curves less than the moon, so the area you see from 100m is much bigger on earth. If they intend to find out, I guess they plan to go close enough. But, that they should, on random, happen to fly over the Apollo site is very unlikely. And, if they don't cover 100% of the surface, they can't prove the non existence of the site.

    I would have imagined that the Apollo landing site location is well know, now, I also think that with evermore news about the NSA, the Europeans and others would like to know also if it was a fake, they sure don't consider the US as friendly anymore...

    The way the American Culture is being used to propagate their sphere of influence, both politically and commercially, would get sever damage by a discovery of this magnitude, the whole culture would be looked at as fake and people would turn away from the US...

    If they can plot a course to the moon I'm sure they can hover within 10 meters of the landing site. If they want to see it they will.

    The "Snowden" documents are now more than 1 (one) year old, in the world of electronics that means at least 100% more capability and the softwares are also all the time refined...
    Sometimes I imagine that they are actually looking where "Jesus" may reappear, so that they can kill him right away without to many people knowing, (I hope they will fail)...

    So now America is the Anti-Christ. Well I have to say it would be for a good cause. Last I heard, shortly after Jesus comes back crap starts to hit the fan real fast. If the NSA can prevent it from happening then I'm all for them reading everyones electronic communications. News Headline: "NSA Stops God's Epic Egotistical Hissy Fit - Saves Human Race"

    "With the US now spending twice as much on its intelligence apparatus as it did in 2001—we now know, thanks to the revelations of former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden, that the “black budget” for these agencies topped $56 billion for 2013—such an assessment raises obvious questions."
