400,000 People Would Have To Keep Quiet In Order To Fake A Moon Landing

Did they or didn't they? A physicist has devised a formula that puts math to work in testing the validity of a conspiracy theory.

Every shadowy conspiracy needs one key thing to work - secrecy. And most popular conspiracy theories, including rumors of a massive NASA cover-up of a faked moon landing, would involve far too many people to stay secret for long. Based on data from several real-world conspiracies, including the National Security Agency program uncovered by whistleblower Edward Snowden, one physicist created a model to determine how long a conspiracy is likely to last before its cover is blown, either by a whistleblower or an unintentional leak.

In 1969 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men to walk on the moon, or did they?
Did it even happen? Conspiracy theories abound but a physicist has just debunked them all. Dr. David Robert Grimes is a physicist, cancer biologist and journalist.

Grimes recently devised an equation that tests the validity of a conspiracy theory. His formula considers the number of potential cospirations in relation of the passage time and the chances of a leak. In one study, Grimes focused on the moon landing conspiracy theory. He found that 411,000 people would have had to keep quiet.

In other words, all of NASA’s employees in 1965 and even then the secret would be out within 3.68 years. Grimes had similar results when he tested a climate change conspiracy. Ths studies show that there are fewer conspirators behind long-lasting conspiracies. Based on his data, for a hoax to last 5 years, only 2,521 people can know about it. However, one question remains…who is Dr David Robert Grimes working for?

Sorry conspiracy theorists, but numbers don’t lie! Share this unless you have a hidden agenda!
