If you could pull in the Hubble image close enough to resolve the moon
landing sites, you'd be in so close you couldn't see anything around
them but grey. At which point the conspiracists (sp?) would simply
scream that the photos had been faked! The only way to convince them
would be to take them to the Moon and dump them outside the landing
sites so they could see for themselves. Oh, let's not forget to drop
them off WITHOUT helmets since everybody knows you could project moon
images onto the helmets as a trick.
