Well ? There seems to be some evidence to suggest that NASA faked it?

take for example the actual man on the moon wearing a space suit of equal weight to him should have been able to jump six feet off the ground. However footage studied showed they never moved more than about 18".

How were they able to develop film that should of, by rights, been rendered usless by the the extreme radiation.The astronauts took thousands of pictures, each one perfectly exposed and sharply focused. Not one was badly composed or even blurred.The pictures are so perfect each one would have taken a slick advertising agency hours to put them together. But the astronauts managed it repeatedly.

The US government needed a postitve distraction from the Vietnam war.

A bit of film that shows the american flag fluttering must be false as there is no atmosphere or wind on the moon.


Outer space is awash with deadly radiation that emanates from solar flares firing out from the sun. Standard astronauts orbiting earth in near space, like those who recently fixed the Hubble telescope, are protected by the earth's Van Allen belt. But the Moon is to 240,000 miles distant, way outside this safe band. And, during the Apollo flights, astronomical data shows there were no less than 1,485 such flares. a physicist who works for NASA, once said shielding at least two meters thick would be needed. Yet the walls of the Lunar Landers which took astronauts from the spaceship to the moons surface were, said NASA, about the thickness of heavy duty aluminum foil.

How could that stop this deadly radiation? And if the astronauts were protected by their space suits, why didn't rescue workers use such protective gear at the Chernobyl meltdown, which released only a fraction of the dose astronauts would encounter? Not one Apollo astronaut ever contracted cancer.

The US goverment raised 30 billion to fund the mmon landings.

We havent been back there in 36 yrs. Why?
 
There must have been hundreds of thousands of people involved in some way or another in the moon landings, I don't think there's any chance at all that they'd have all stayed quiet, not in the USA - there'd be people involved in faking the moon landings on Oprah and Jerry Springer so often that everybody would be sick to death of hearing about it.

I'm sure that the US government would definitely have faked them if they thought they could have gotten away with it though.
 
FFS! :mad:

You don't need 2 meters of shielding!

All you need is this hat i made you from tinfoil:

No strategic or economic need, at present.

Strategic - Soviet Union is dead, and Russia is hardly a real threat to the US, China is becoming a strategic threat, hence recent talk about establishing a base there, ostensibly for Mars missions, but also to stake territory for the US

Economic - very high cost of going, mining, and returning ore/goods from the moon to earth
 
fucking expesnive and fuck all there. We have probes that do that sort of thing. Its made of cheese. :confused:

bastard yoss i was looking for that!

I've never been last in. My turn! :mad:

This reminds me of one of Windsors posts from a couple of years back. Whatever happened to her? Those were quality conspiracy theories :D
 
I've heard this theory before - but to frighten the Russians, rather than a distraction from The Vietnam War - was a good programme about this on bbc4 a while back

not my estimations mate. They are those of scientists.

How do you know anyway. are you qualified?
An object satellite shielded by 3 mm of aluminum will receive about 2500 rem (3) (25 Sv) per year.

So assuming they were covered by 3mm of Aluminium and spent less than a day inside the belts in total they got a dose of around 7 REM:

0.05–0.2 Sv (5–20 REM)

No symptoms. Potential for cancer and mutation of genetic material, according to the LNT model. This is disputed. (Note: see hormesis). A few researchers even contend that low dose radiation may be beneficial.

The radiation seems to be predominantly not gamma based, which is the only type that needs that sort of mass shielding, alpha radiation is blocked by 20cm of air, beta by thin aluminium sheeting... :rolleyes:
 
i first read about it around the mid 90's in one of the popular magazines of the time. the evidence that was presented seemed valid to me, bearing in mind i only have a cse in physics :D

all the supposed discrepencies were explained away by scientists. but i missed that. i would imagine that their case was believable to the likes of me as i only have a cse in physics :D
 
Some bits still don't make sence but that might not mean we didn't go to the moon.

The space suit pressure is still an issue for me.

The biggest issue I have is that if you are doing something as important as going to the moon and filming it why would you not record the footage beemed back from a dirtect feed? all the cameras recorded the beamed back footage off crap nasa monitors. The footage should have been much much better for the time.

Why not talk to buzz aldrin about your supicisons you drug addled loon :)


Well apparantly people have:

Several years after NASA claimed its first Moon landing, Buzz Aldrin "the second man on the Moon" was asked at a banquet what it felt like to step on to the lunar surface. Aldrin staggered to his feet and left the room crying uncontrollably. It would not be the last time he did this.

What problem is that? We make diving equipment that can survive hundreds of atmospheres of pressure crushing it, why not one atmospheric pressure pushing out?

to me that suggest that he is still overwhelmed with being one of the very few people that have been on the moon's surface rather than suggesting that it's all a hoax....

On that basis, I suppose all the space walks that Russians and Americans did before and after the Apollo missions were faked too?

...and this is what he did when someone who believed the moon landings were faked called him 'a coward and a liar." :D

You haven't bothered to do the slightest bit of research first, have you?

I cant be fucked spending ages using the shite search facility to dig up some threads that are years old. What are saying here. That one a topic has been discussed once that its not open for discussion?

I have reserached the topic of discussion in some depth.


(my pcs not working on the armstong link) What am i meant to see ?
