One Small Step? : The Great Moon Hoax and the Race to Dominate Earth from Space

by Gerhard Wisnewski

Is it possible that the famous American moon landings were nothing but an illusion―all a fabrication? Could NASA have fooled the world by broadcasting simulations that had been filmed for training purposes?

From the very first manned flight into orbit right up to the present day, there have been serious anomalies in the official narrative of the conquest of space. Bestselling author Gerhard Wisnewski dissects the history in minute detail―from the first Russian missions to the final American moon project of Apollo 17―looking at films, photos, radio communications, personal statements, and other available material. Using forensic methods of investigation, he pieces together a complex jigsaw depicting a disturbing picture of falsifications, lies, and fakery in the Cold War struggle for supremacy between the Soviet Union and the United States. The evidence he presents casts serious doubt on the possibility of humans ever having walked on the moon.

Wisnewski’s research calls for a reassessment of the received wisdom that has become a part of our cultural fabric. He insists that the true story of space exploration has a more sinister undertone. Beneath the guise of civilian space travel, the US military has been developing fearsome new equipment and weapons to be secretly stationed in space, whose purpose is to militarize the sphere surrounding the Earth, and whose potential targets are every human being on the planet.

Profusely illustrated with more than 200 photos and diagrams.

Reviews

[Forked Radish]

NASA recently "lost" the original Apollo 11 moon landing videos. Is any more proof needed that NASA's moon landing footage was a fraud? The only piece of exculpatory evidence mysteriously goes missing? Just how foolishly credulous are the American people?

The case is made for why and how the Apollo missions were used to fake a moon landing. You may not agree with the conclusions but this book lays out the arguments in great detail. Very provocative.

Misleading

[Scott Andrews · Rating 5 out of 5]

Good read on the Moon Hoax.

The first section reads like a first rate thriller.

Nice context on the USSR efforts before the U.S.

Not every aspect of the hoax was covered and the last section on space domination/world domination seems dated. Nothing new, there.

Easy way to finish this argument once and for all? Send a human being through the Van Allen radiation belt, have the journey tracked and reported by every satellite in the heavens, and verified by every country in the world, and, then, have that astronaut return intact and alive. Follow that astronaut for 4-5 years after the journey to make certain there were no adverse effects from the journey and then I will believe the tin-foil BS about the Moon landing.

Otherwise, shut up. It was a Big Lie. The U.S. can't even send a Roomba up to the Moon.

And, the millions spent on creating 20+ versions of simulated Moon dust?

Boondoggle? Moondoggle.

A very detailed look at the Apollo missions and what you may or may not know about some things that were a little absurd.

Interesting and un put down, a historical and political incredible story, like a time machine to the tip of the Cold War
