I gather he was being a smart arse and infering something about you "living with" a boxer and being "taught a lesson"...

Oh, silly me, that'll explain all that leather and rubber stuff.

Without subscribing to any conspiracy theories, those spacewalk pictures always look like Star Wars-type models.
I guess that it might be because of the lack of air allowing an extraordinary clarity.

And some of the world's finest photographic equipment perhaps?

Oh alright then...because of the lack of air allowing an extraordinary clarity and some of the world's finest photographic equipment...

Not that most modern digital photographic lab's equipment is exactly archaic though...

Are you suggesting that these might be fake?

You are absolutely right.

Some of the CT guys problems with photos taken on the moon come from the lack of a drop-off in clarity for far away objects. That is, the mountains far in the background stay clear; it can make them seem closer than they are - which leads to people thinking there should be more parallax than is seen.

P.S. No stars in the background of any of those shots - just as would be expected with cameras set for proper exposure of sunlit objects. (Another CT claim is the "no stars" bollox.)

Oh no, you would have noticed that, I would have said "These photos might be fake" or similar.

The number of possible fuckups inherent in staging either the moon landings or the shuttle activities is huge. It's simply not believable that they were staged simply because the vast bulk of evidence supports the claim that these events actually happened.

Love the second pic - the one showing the top of the South Island and the bottom of the North.

The lack of atmospheric interference does make for nice sharp images - that and a decent depth of field.
