One descrepancy does not make a conspiracy, it only makes you dig for more information. An issue so fundemental as this would not be easily hidden based upon data from other sources. Gravity can be mathematically derived from physical observations. Case in point: Monday night on PBS, there was a special on Space Exploration which showed an interesting experiment. One of the astronauts dropped a hammer and feather at the same time to show that Galieo was right. I propose that somebody does some quick calculations based on the time it takes for these objects to drop a certain distance and use the following basic physics 101 equations: where d = Distance object travels a = acceleration due to gravity t = time it takes to drop. d = 1/2at**2 or a = 2d/t**2 Bottom line: based upon historical video footage, we can estimate the force of lunar gravity. This estimate will validate or question your claim. Of course, you could also time some of the explorer's hops to see if they are consistent with the outcome of this equation.
