Amnon, 

Bennet and Percy's book Dark Moon describes the Apollo 13 "mission" as a 
preplanned event to garner support for the waning interest in Apollo at that 
point, which had successfully landed on the moon and was going through 
anti-climactic woes.  They described the landing site, "Frau" something or 
other (I forget the exact name) as being named after a person who spread an 
enormous map drawing hoax in the 15th or 16th century (again, I forget 
exactly), and who gained quite a bit of fame for that.  That person is the name 
of the supposed landing site the Apollo 13 crew was to have landed upon, a 
person who was a proven hoaxster.  

Further, they state that this landing site for Apollo 13 was on the dark side 
of the moon when the craft was circling the moon.  Therefore, the actors who 
"saw" this site in the Apollo 13 movie could never have actually seen it.

Of course, Percy and Bennet get great heat on the BA, but what do you expect?  
Although on some things they are probably just plain screwball, theirs is a 550 
page book. In a treatise such as that there are bound to be some errors and 
wrong paths taken.  It by no means ruins the whole foundation of the book.  

One of my favorite things I learned from their book is the picture of blue sky 
out the Apollo 11 window in supposedly deep (black) space, at a distance (so 
the astronauts claimed in the film) of 100,000 miles from the earth.   Also at 
this same time was the noted "hand in deep space" incident.  I also have the 
video to go with the book and I don't see how these things can be reconciled to 
the NASA story.  

Yeah, Apollo was real.  Wanna buy some swamp land in Florida?

How is Apollo 13 explained according to moon-hoax theory? Was the 
explosion deliberate or accidental? Is it your opinion that the command 
and/or lunar excursion modules on Apollos 8-17 were empty shells, or 
fully assembled and functioning units and that none of them ever left 
low-earth orbit? Do you believe the Soviets were in on any hoax?
