While monitoring Cracked.com (a frequent antagonist for conspiracy theorists), he was surfing through one of its photoplasty articles, the link is posted below. The piece pretty much puts together numerous examples of how Hollywood gets science completely wrong. Most of the images are fairly innocuous, but #9 tells a different story.

What the reader sees is a scene from "The Empire Strikes Back" of Luke, Leia, and the droids standing before a giant window watching the Millennium Falcon fly away. In the image's text, a passage about how windows in space could not be possible due to the lethal doses of radiation that would enter the spacecraft.

Of course, the comments section was lit up with people saying that the image was junk and should never had been there, and they all said the same thing, that the Apollo command/service modules all had windows and no ill effects happened to their crews. Now, that's where the Illuminati's mistake is. The fact checkers at Cracked were right about the radiation and the windows. The levels would have become lethal and fast. However, the people commenting actually believe that the Apollo missions left low-Earth orbit.

What we have is a nice little Illuminati mistake. According to "moon landing conspiracy" debunkers, the radiation from outer space had no effect on the Apollo CSMs because of the aluminum fuselages and low exposure. Recent science says otherwise. Probes and shuttle crews have reported extremely dangerous levels lurking just beyond low orbit. The Cracked.com piece is totally right, radiation in outer space is way too dangerous to have windows. It's the brainwashed commenters who have their facts wrong, but they're too far gone to ever realize that they've been duped.
