On earth, we wear rubberized boots or galoshes over our shoes. We wear rubberized boots or galoshes over our shoes (thus the term “overshoe”) to protect us and our good shoes from high water and muddy conditions. The idea for wearing lunar overshoes is similar to wearing galoshes here on Earth. These moon boot lunar overshoes were worn over top of the regular boots worn by the Apollo astronauts. This conspiracy can be laid to rest with four words: “moon boot lunar overshoes.” Moon boot lunar overshoes Questioning the moon landings is a favorite pastime for conspiracy theorists and has been asked since July 20 th, 1969, when the first images of lunar footprints looked larger and left differing imprints in the lunar dust than the shoes or boots that were a part of the moon-walkers spacesuits.

A great question needs to be answered with patience and clarity. We can sum up and simplify this fundamental question as “why can’t we see the footprints on the moon?” This is a great question. So, the reasons for our being unable to see the Apollo artifacts on the moon should be nullified? Thus, we should be able to see the footprints on the moon, and yet we do not.” Apollo 11 footprint Many people attending StarWatches often say something like the following, “OK, I get it, the moon is big and far away, but we are looking at it through a telescope!
