In faking the Moon missions, NASA need only show the astronauts entering into the Command
Module atop the Saturn V. Due to design changes mandated by the Apollo 1 disaster, the astronauts
could open the hatch on the Command Module from the inside and exit freely. I find it quite
plausible to believe this is what actually occurred. All of the Apollo Mission sequences would
already have been filmed so they could be broadcast to the world as if they were a live mission. The
Saturn V rocket’s ascent was never straight up. It always went into a low earth orbit before heading
to the Moon. This is why viewers always observe the rocket arcing out over the ocean. NASA could
have sent the rocket out of sight to some remote area of the South Atlantic and ditched it into the
ocean. All they would need to do afterwards, is roll their pre-recorded film as if it was a live mission,
and at the time for the mission’s end, they could drop an Apollo Command Module from a high
flying cargo plane in the vicinity of the splash down area, and no one would be the wiser. Any
terrestrial observers would see the Command Module floating serenely to the Earth as it was slowed
by three immense parachutes.

If such a scenario sounds far-fetched, consider that NASA tested all of the Command Modules by
dropping them out of the backs of airplanes. There is video available of them doing this with the
Mercuy, Gemini, Apollo, and now the new Orion capsules.

None of the Apollo Mission capsules upon their return from the Moon, were observed hurtling
through sky prior to the moment their parachutes deployed, which was typically at an altitude of
more than 20,000 feet for the drogue chutes, and 10,000 feet for their main chutes. Although the U.S.
government had Navy vessels waiting to recover the Command Modules and astronauts, the
splashdown into the ocean invariably occurred either at night, during cloudy weather, or miles away
from the location of the rescue vessels. As if they were playing it safe, all three of the Apollo
Missions which generated the greatest interest by the public, and received the maximum amount of
television coverage, experienced reentry at night. Apollo 8, which was the first Mission to leave
lower earth orbit and circle the Moon, Apollo 11 which was the first landing on the Moon, and
Apollo 13, whose drama captivated the world, all experienced splashdown in the dark of night when
it would have been impossible to observe the capsules being dropped out of the back of a high flying
cargo airplane.

The world knows Wernher Von Braun as a rocket scientist. It is not as well known that he knew a
