Beautiful. Thank you.

Hey, while they are there with a HD camera, do you think they might do a quick pass over "Tranquility Base" and get a few photos of the lander, just to set the record straight?

just goto a well funded planetarium observatory and have them look up on the moon with their high power telescope for you.

That would work for me, but I don't need it. What I want is a bunch of photos I can send to those "moon landing hoax" sites with "Suck It Bitches" as the file name.

the camera can only resolve 10 meters per one pixel. it isn't powerful enough to see the lander.

even the hubble doesn't have a good enough camera to see something that small on the surface.

not needed, really. all you need to do is spend 5 mins on those "moon landing hoax" sites, and with a little knowledge in physics and photography, you will know that all of the points they put up in favor of a hoax are complete bullshit.

Seriously? Jesus when will they finally send a decent camera to do this sort of thing - Hell google earth has that kind of resolution.

You miss the point - arguing science with those guys doesn't work - I want something that is like a huge slap in the face as opposed to a reasoned argument.

Although I doubt they'd believe the pictures anyway.

Besides, even if the camera could see the apollo sites, the hoax believers would just claim that secret rocket launches put fake landers and equipment up there robotically, to make it look like america went to the moon after the fact.

Moon hoax believers are not in touch with reality.

Doesn't matter, even if they do take a clear picture with the orbiter, those conspiracy nuts would just simply dismiss it as japs working together with amerikkka in covering up the truth.

The satellites that take pictures of the earth are only ~300km from the earth.

The moon is 384400km away. NASA is focused more on mars than the moon ATM. With the moon, they have already been there, done that. No need to prove it to anyone. They are only going back there as a stepping stone for mars (and possible helium-3 mining).
