NASA could have been caught out "faking" the lunar landings amid claims a "stage hand" can be seen photographed in the reflection of an astronaut's visor who was supposedly on the moon.

A conspiracy theory video uploaded to YouTube suggests a human figure not wearing a space suit has been captured on camera during the 1972 Apollo 17 landing.

Thousands of people have viewed the video uploaded by channel Streetcap1, which is entitled "Does Astronaut's visor reflection show a stagehand on the Apollo fake Moon set?"

The 48th anniversary of Neil Armstrong's first steps on the lunar surface took place in July, but many conspiracy theorists across the globe remain convinced it was the biggest cover up of all time.

Moon hoax conspiracy theorists say a desperate President John F Kennedy, who wanted to beat the Russians in the space race to the moon, ordered the production of a series of films in top-secret studios to make it look like NASA astronauts made it to the lunar surface.

At the heart of the theory are claims that the radioactive Van Allen belt around Earth would have been lethal to fly through.

The video narrator said: "I came across this. I have no idea if it's been discovered before or uploaded before.

"It is from a Moon photograph. It is a reflection from one of the astronaut's face visor, so I thought it looked a bit strange.

"I took a picture of it using my software. What we appear to have here is a figure of a human not wearing a space suit, circa early 70s, it is an Apollo 17 photograph."

He said he had learned there had been some dispute about the authenticity of the pictures in 2009, but that he had not found the particular picture discussed before or through Google.

He added: "You can see some sort of… it looks like a man back in the early 1970s, long hair, you know.

"He is wearing some sort of, I don't know, waistcoat type thing… one leg there, with one shoe, another leg and a shadow of that figure presumably.

"I am going to keep looking through the photographs to see if I can find any other examples.

"There has ben a lot of debate about whether these photos were faked."

He said that until seeing the picture he had believed that NASA did make it to the Moon.

He added: "I sort of think we did make it to the Moon, but this is starting to make me think if we did because where is this guy's space suit?"

CLOSE-UP: Many people have said that it just looks like a reflected astronaut.

Nasa does not comment on specific moon hoax claims, but has previously vehemently denied any of the Apollo missions were faked, and insists it has made it to the moon.

Several conspiracy theory sceptics have debunked previous pictures put forward as proof the lunar landings were faked.

Some people who viewed the video were convinced it was proof of a lunar hoax.

Kati O'Brien posted on YouTube: "Pretty earth-shaking for a believer in the landing."

However, many people del the figure in the reflection looked like it was wearing a space suit, and was, therefore, just another astronaut.

Clint Steel posted on YouTube: "Looks like another astronaut."

Lee D said: "reflection looks to be astronaut."

Express.co.uk sent the image to debunker Scot Brando, who runs website ufoofinterest.org.

He also believed it was someone in a spacesuit.

He said: "Why not another astronaut?"

Okay, riddle me this. The conspiracy folks claim that Kennedy made his declaration and they faked the moon landings because he wanted to "beat the Russians" in the space race. The Russians had already achieved a number of firsts including satellites and men in orbit.

So what would be the fallout if America DIDN'T put a man on the moon first? Kennedy was part of the entity that funded space development. It wasn't dependent on world opinion ffs :lol:

There's such a huge chunk of missing logic in the discussion that can be reduced to why? As in, why fake a mission? What was or would be the fallout either way if the objective wasn't accomplished?

And those conspiracy guys need to go back to their grade 10 science class when they talk about radiation from the Van Allen belt. It's not like the astronauts were outside the craft wearing speedos :lol:

I wonder what the real astronauts who went to the moon think about these conspiracy people?

Someone like Buzz Aldrin who actually stepped on it..

I went to a Q & A in 2010 where Gene Cernan - the last man to walk on the moon - was and he was asked that very question.

I don't remember the exact wording of course, but the promoters of the event were saying "lets not insult him, keep the questions serious" and he stopped the guy and said he really wanted to answer the question. He essentially said that it'd be easy to just give a flippant answer and say "they're idiots", and that's exactly what they are" ..and the crowd laughs..

He continued..., cleared his throat and got serious and said (I'm paraphrasing...) What they don't know is that when they spout their theories, they deeply insult every one of us because Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee died while they were testing the Apollo-Saturn command module. Not to mention the years we neglected our families and gave our everything to this mission.
