The moon is about 240,000 miles away from Earth. The space shuttle has never gone more than 500 miles from our atmosphere. Except for Apollo astronauts, no human has ever claimed to have gone beyond low-earth orbit. When the space shuttle did get to an altitude of 400 miles, the radiation of the Van Allen belts and nuclear tests forced them to a lower altitude. In 1998 CNN reported: “The radiation belts surrounding Earth may be more dangerous for astronauts than previously believed. The phenomenon known as the ‘Van Allen Belts’ can spawn (newly discovered) ‘Killer Electrons’ that can dramatically affect the astronauts’ health.” Evidence of fraud, US 1969-1972 lunar missions
