A friend of mine posted a photo elsewhere of Neil Armstrong supposedly having briefly de-helmeted while standing on the Moon, to see what effect this would have.
I think my friend must be joking. I have NEVER heard of this prior, nor seen the photo. Google yields no results. I was a little kid during Apollo, know quite a few things about the program though not exhaustively. But I do question this. ? Can anyone advise? Thanks. |

It's a fake - the story is fictional, the image is a photoshop job. There's no debate to be had. You could always get the complete Apollo 11 downlink DVD set and sit him infront of it for the full EVA duration to see that it didn't happen.
