#2Finally! Conclusive proof that the moon landings were faked! It can be done on a computer!
edit: clearly sarcasm. I wonder, they've gone all the way till the Eagle has landed, why not go further and include Neil Armstrong's small step for man recording?

You'd have to wait 5 hours for that. He didn't just open the hatch and took a stroll :).

If it is fake we should be able to know it right ? i mean the team did leave some stuff on the moon , so why cant people just watch the moon with powerfull big telescope and look for clues ? if there are some gear on the moon then the landing was genuine.

#5That was truly brilliantly presented. It's things like this that the Internet were invented for.

#6You can read and listen along manually to every lunar surface operation at http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/frame.html. This is dozens of hours of audio (unfortunately in 12ish-minute segments). The transcript is annotated with helpful things, too - interviews with the astronauts in question to gain more understanding of what was happening, technical explanations and photos to explain what a particular device is, etc. There are a scattered few video clips as well for the most visually interesting moments.
The companion Apollo Flight Journal covers the rest of the missions - but doesn't contain audio, and is missing 13, 14, and 17 (but has 7-10, which of course aren't in the surface journal). It's still full of interesting annotations though.

tiny tiny tiny leftovers + distortion from atmosphere.
best bet is to fire a giant laser at the moon and hope you get a disproportionate number of photons back from the retro reflectors. That doesn't convince many of knuckledraggers though.

The 'Lunar Surface Journal' I link to earlier has audio starting at 102:15:02 for Apollo 11, (in fact, has the descent audio for several if not all of the missions). It continues through the EVA prep and the first excursion, etc.
You can't quite experience it in real time, as the occasional long comm break (10 minutes to several hours) are often not included in the mp3s. But you can get pretty durn close.
As mertd notes, though, it's several hours between touchdown and EVA.
The relevant pages would be 'The First Lunar Landing', 'Post-landing Activities', 'EVA Preparations' and of course 'One Small Step' from the bottom of http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a11/a11j.html. It can be difficult to navigate because of the sheer amount of extra pages that they have.

Buzz Aldrin will punch you in the face!
