Are the Challenger crew members still alive? I mentioned this conspiracy theory yesterday in a comment on Understanding Why People Believe in Flat Earth. I’ve been wanting to do a post about this topic for some time and decided today is the day. The theory is that at least six of the seven Challenger crew members are alive and well, living regular lives in America.
In the interest of time, I will simply refer you to a few websites and videos that break it down rather than writing my own in-depth post. You can look at as many as you wish. Each one takes a bit of a different angle so it’s worth it to at least skim them if you want a good overview of it.
As with Big Mike, I can’t know for sure if this is true or not. I’m open to being persuaded that it’s all a tremendous coincidence. I mean, it’s pretty common for space shuttles to explode and then have six of the seven dead people have doppelgangers of the exact right age. (Two of them even have identical twins that apparently no one knew about.) It happens all the time, right? I mean, loosen that tinfoil hat, people. Totally normal.
So if it is true, why would they do something like this? There are a few different reasons that range from highly probable to really conspiratorial.
The highly conspiratorial view is that no one is “going to space.” That’s an entirely different post, but there’s loads of content out there about that if it interests you. (If you want to get super conspiratorial, they aren’t going to space because they can’t get beyond the firmament.)
Have you ever watched the press conference of the Apollo 11 astronauts after they went to the moon (embedded below)? Do they look like they just participated in one of the greatest feats of mankind? Ever seen the movie Capricorn One?
Here are a few comments under this video on YouTube.
@mikesmusicdenThese are either three guys who have not really been to the moon, or three guys who have been to the moon but saw things that shocked them to the core. Either way, they give the impression of people who were told to tow the official line or bad things might happen to their families. The body language is palpable and contrasts greatly with their achievement.

I gotta tell you… This is where my suspicion began… Their behavior is just so bizarre given the magnitude of what they had supposedly achieved. Neil could barely talk… Buzz looks like his mind is still in space… Collins says he doesn’t remember seeing any stars and supposedly he wasn’t even on the surface of the moon… It’s just “Wrong”

I would say they’re not the same people. There are too many facial differences. Plastic surgery could account for some of that, but if the budget/commitment was there for surgery, why not change the names as well?
I think there were multiple people aboard the Challenger to fly it, because as far as I know, NASA has never been very good at automation, and the military not much better.
I do wonder whether it was an accident or an “accident”.
On the other hand, my child tells me that Dr. Richard Feynman, who was part of the investigating committee afterward, said in Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman that the Challenger’s take-off was so automated that the astronauts had nothing to do but change the cassette tapes.
How many people does it take to pull off a hoax?
Not very many.
You could have many people working in their silo, doing exactly what they have been hired and trained to do. They can believe that they are absolutely fulfilling their part of the mission and have no idea what is actually going on.
Just ask all the county clerks who worked in the 2020 election. They will swear they did everything by the book AND THEY DID. All of the theft magic operated completely outside of their realm.
This tweet popped up in my Telegram feed. I reshared it and made the comment below.
How about just sending people back to the moon first so everyone can see it for themselves? It’s mind-boggling how many people question this one thing. Whoever is running the “we didn’t go to the moon” psyop has done a bang-up job.
Just looked at the comments on the Apollo press conference when I saw these. Here’s a few screenshots.
People will need proof. There are simply too many doubters.
