Answer 3

Yes, I can see how it looks like a little frogman or mutant ninja turtle strolling along.  

However, in reality it's probably something as simple as interstellar gasses and dust.

much like the constellation of stars known as the 'Big Dipper' is not a giant soup ladle.

please tell me this was asked as a joke......

Answer 6

No just bird droppings on the lens.

Answer 7

The power of reading...

"Now known popularly as Hanny's Voorwerp, subsequent observations have shown that the mysterious green blob has the same distance as neighboring galaxy IC 2497. Research is ongoing, but one leading hypothesis holds that Hanny's Voorwerp is a small galaxy that acts like a large reflection nebula, showing the reflected light of a bright quasar event that was visible in the center of IC 2497 about 100,000 years ago."

Answer 8

NASA didn't take this picture.

Read the caption: "Pictured above, Hanny's Voorwerp was imaged recently by the 4.2-meter William Herschel Telescope in the Canary Islands by Matt Jarvis, Kevin Schawinski, and William Keel." This telescope is part of the Isaac Newton Group of Telescopes, an international consortium of the Science and Technology Facilities Council of the United Kingdom, the Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek of the Netherlands, and the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in Spain.

Many of the APOD pictures are from sources other than NASA, including pictures take by hundreds of amateur astronomers. Although the APOD is hosted on NASA's web site, it is compiled from pictures taken by amateur and professional astronomers from all around the world.

Answer 9

the crew of Apollo 11 and subsequent astronauts had faked their orbit around the Moon and their walk on its surface by trick photography, and they never got more than halfway to the Moon. the radiation belts prevented humans from reaching the moon.

Lack of stars in the pictures and collins saying he didnt remember seeing any stars is quite telling.

The quality of the photographs is implausibly high.

The color and angle of shadows and light are inconsistent. often showing a second or third light source was used.

Identical backgrounds in photos are listed as taken miles apart.

Cold-War prestige

Money — NASA raised approximately $30 billion to go to the Moon. in the 60's that a lot of tax payer money.

Problems early in the space program were insurmountable

To fulfill President Kennedy's 1961 promise "to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth."

still some think it was real and maybe the video and photography was faked to show the world.

only Nasa and the astronauts know the truth.

maybe china will find out for us soon. if they don't see anything on our landing sights ,nasa will be exposed.

Answer 10

"It sure looks like a green space alien strolling across the sky."

No it doesn't.  It looks like a formation in space that either emits, or reflects, the color green.
