That guy is clearly fake! Look greenscreen everywhere!!  ;)

This is an excellent video and sums up what I have been trying to get through to the conspiracists on here. It would have been EASIER to go to the moon than fake it and everything else required to convince the watching world, and other nations.

His last 2 minute summary perfectly describes the idiocy and ignorance of many FE'ers.

Thanks for posting this.

The main argument seems to be centered around the idea that in 1969 it was not possible to slow video down to half speed. I don't find this argument particularly compelling.

Yeah, he just ignored the possibility of conventionally slowing video down and focused entirely on how overcranking wouldn't be feasible.

No, he's saying that in 1969 it wasn't possible to shoot enough film or video at one time to show 143 continuous minutes of slow motion.  Please pay attention, will you Tom?

This is textbook Strawman argument. The author said the exact opposite of what Tom Bishop is saying: in 1969 it was possible to slow video down to half speed according to the author What the author is saying is that the technology was not there to make a continuous slow motion video of several minutes. Any attempt at a slow motion video of such a length would be full of telltale splices, or would have at least a few scratches or particles of dust that would show that the slow motion was done with 35 mm film and then passed to video.

Creating a slow motion video was possible. Doing it so well that we cannot see the defects, even now that we have all the digital equipment that was thought impossible back then, is pretty close to impossible.

Where is the 143 minute continuous footage of slow motion on the moon?
Exactly. The people like me who were alive at that time remember the continuous showing of long, unedited video. As far as I know, most of it was not preserved for posterity because it was just too difficult. The same goes for most local programming of that time's national television in my country and probably all others.

I can assure you, the quality of video from that time was really poor compared to today's video. The perfect cuts and scene changes we know just weren't possible. And the typical airing of weeks or months of programs without a single glitch, which is now the norm, was totally unheard of in those times. Video was full of problems. Films were frequently scratched, had visible marks, had visual signs for the operator to change reels, had white balance problems when changing scenes, and so much more. In fact, it was not uncommon to have long waits while the operator at your local cinema repaired the film after it had broken or got burned.

So, if you think they used 1969's technology for the videos, look for 1969's technologies' failures.

Why not? At the beginning of the video the narrator says that NASA had their equipment specially built for the government from Westinghouse.

But rather than slowing the video is it more likely that they simply used wire supports, as described in the video sceptimatic posted.

Indeed an intriguing topic, though admittedly a little outside of my specialty  :D

As a renown Canadian physicist, I can offer my research and extensive connections to NASA officials to clarify a couple of points regarding the moon landing.  Primarily, space travel in 1969 was, in fact, quite feasible, thanks largely to Dr. Spurtan Appratox's Phyllonium III engine (that which Apollo 11 used). 

Secondly, the moon landing did not actually take place; it is actually a hoax.  As their spacecraft was approaching the moon's surface, the astronauts were forced to jettison their FOURTH team-member, Fred Gurgleon, due to the excessive weight of their landing craft.  This is all contained in classified documents now maintained in NASA's archives and accessible only to the upper-most tier of leadership.  Rather than continuing the mission, the team decided to abandon the landing and head back to Earth.  The 'landing' was filmed in Casa Dunca, Mexico. 

Physicists at NASA completely underestimated the weight of the lunar vehicle due to their inability to grasp the concept of the Pintamoranian gas belts that surround the moon, creating vast areas of immense gravitational pull.

And that my friends, as they say, is history.  :-\

What do you think N.A.S.A is?
We have established it's not a real space agency, so what could it be?

Here's a clue.
People supposedly ignore the real problems of our government. But do we?
That is the real question.

You've "established" nothing until one of you Flat Earthers gets a job at NASA and reports your findings.

They have proved absolutely nothing except that they are paid to manipulate tests. Simple as that.
I'm shocked that you expect people to just accept this.

Post by: Pythagoras on January 26, 2013, 08:13:27 AM
The conspiracy says that the shadows are not all pointing in the same direction and this can only be the case if thier was multiple light sources. This video have proven the terain also causes shadows to point at different angles. It also nicely shows why stars can't be seen. Are you watching a different video or something? Their for these cannot be used as arguments for us not having been to the moon.

In these back packs, the Astro liars supposedly had air to breathe, a heat exchanger and some kind of radio communication
I will be generous and say that the back packs hold 4 hours each of air/oxygen.

do you actualy know how many hours worth of air in the suits? you cant just be generous and guess. you need to know.
how big were apollos tanks? what psi where they at on take off? what recycaling equiptment did they have on board? what si the consumption rate of 2 humans for 3 days? do you know any of these? becuse you need to know all of them to be able to say they did not have enough oxygen on board.

It doesn't debunk anything. It attempts to.

Just by the speed that the mythbusters actually do all the tests and confirm as busted tells me all I need to know about the show.

The speed in which they achieve their results on the show is a direct result of editing out what is unnecessary. A 4 minute section of the show doesn't necessarily equal 4 minutes in real time. If there was no editing, we'd be watching them set up and prepare everything for hours.

All the evidence?
Such as calculating the time and position of a spacecraft from the Earthrise photo?
And independent tracking of the Apollo communications from various non-NASA agencies around the world?
And the existence of moon rocks brought back which correspond to no known minerals found on earth, independently verified by non-NASA geologists?
And the retroreflector placed there by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, which can be used by anyone on earth with the right equipment to bounce a laser back off the surface?
And all the eye witnesses who watched the Saturn V rockets take off and go up into the sky?

If I said that you are sat in a space ship typing to me, I would expect to be called a nut job.

Questioning stuff that is clearly hoaxed does not make a person unstable or nuts. It means that the world as  a whole is not totally full of brainwashed people.

You have absolutely no evidence that this stuff is hoaxed. And just because you believe certain things that most others don't, doesn't mean everybody is "brainwashed." Questioning things is very good, but considering the whole world a lie because you simply don't understand it is a different story. You're jumping to conclusions and making assumptions left and right. Just because I believe in a round Earth doesn't mean I'm just blindly going by what I'm told. It doesn't mean I'm not looking at all of your evidence and giving it a shot.

What about the petrified wood posing as moon rock.

How can non N.A.S.A geologists verify moon rocks. What makes them experts?
The retro reflector is used as some kind of proof. We are simply told there is one and also that a laser is fired at it.

1. All those people standing around in Florida looking up at the sky, at Cape Canaveral (or Kennedy as it was then) and on Cocoa Beach. Thousands saw it.

We are "ALL" brainwashed in some way or another. Every day in our lives involves some kind of brainwashing. It's just figuring out what is what.

When stuff is so blatantly fake, you have to question it, like the moon landings.
Anyone that says there is no reason to suspect the moon landings are fake, in spite of all the anomalies and crap craft used, are simply brainwashed or are seasoned debunkers that will attempt to debunk anything said against what's officially told.

No, you're not "questioning" it. You're calling it "blatantly fake" without evidence or even demonstrating why it could be fake. You've not posted one "anomaly" or any proof of the craft being "crap." I look at this stuff just as you do, I'm not just going by what's being told. I'm not trying to be rude so I apologize if it sounds that way, but I'm tired of the generalizations about everyone who doesn't believe what you believe.

I've seen plenty of footage of many launches, from Saturn to the shuttles. All faked, in terms of what they are actually supposed to be  launching.

Nope. Show us that they're faked.

What I can show you is most likely what you have seen many times, as you clearly show an interest in debunking, so I assume there will be other sites you have asked for evidence and set about debunking it.

The fact you question nothing at all about the moon landings tells me that you are either thoroughly brainwashed or your game is debunking anything contrary to the official stories.

Another assumption that I don't question anything. I question a lot of things. I have looked at everything you have shown with an open mind. My goal is not to "debunk" but to find the truth. My investigation of these things has only confirmed my beliefs in regards to space travel. It has nothing to do with the "official stories." You simply haven't provided any evidence for me that shows me something else is going on. I would be happy to admit that something is fishy if I were presented something that showed me this. So, instead of trying to continually insult me about my differing beliefs and stick some labels on me, please show me I'm wrong in my beliefs. You can believe whatever you want about me, but don't tell me what "my game is" or how I'm some brainwashed fool. You don't know me.

Why rely on me to give you evidence. Go and look it all up and sift through it.

If you don't believe there is anything wrong with the moon landing footage or even the blatant lying Astronauts, then you aren't interested in questioning it or looking at anomalies. You are simply here to debunk it all in whatever way you can.

No I'm not. I'm here to see why you believe these things. Again, just because I believe otherwise doesn't mean I'm "trying to debunk" you. You have presented what you believe to be anomalies, and I have looked at them. I do not see them as anomalies. Then since I don't agree you just continue to call me "brainwashed" and such. I could say all the same crap about you, but I don't. I'm not interested in telling you anything about you that I believe. I'm interested in seeing what makes you believe the moon landing is a hoax and looking at it. My conclusions in regards to it have nothing to do with why I am actually here.

The one I can think of right now was the photo with the shadows from the rocks. The first one that Mythbusters did. Even as a photographer I found myself thinking about it for a few minutes. I did end up playing around with shadows from different objects with one light source from a lamp to be certain and saw the same results as the Mythbusters. It makes perfect sense, but I didn't come up with the answer immediately despite the fact that I play with this kind of stuff every day. There are likely others, however I can't think of them at this time.

As a renown Canadian physicist...


My skepticism of your authenticity was extremely great upon seeing your post.  A 'renown', as you put it, professor of stellar physics believes we haven't went to the moon/that the earth is flat (going by posts in other threads)?.  So 'renown' are you, that I cannot even find you on the entirity of the internet with the exception of this domain. 

Sorry, but who are you? 

What is your purpose on this forum?  You just seem like a grade 'A' troll to me and I'm sure even the FE proponents do not want a hoaxer backing them up.

Sorry - I know that's off topic, but it's certainly worth questioning someone who effectively claims to be so reputable, especially when they make such extraordinary claims.

Forgive me if I am mistaken, simply direct me to the page where I can see your staff profile etc.  Shouldn't be so difficult for such a 'renown' physicist as yourself.

I have a real problem here about this moon carry on and my problem is, I can't get my head around why in the hell those Astro liars walked on the so called moon in slow motion.

They didn't move in slow motion.  They were wearing very bulky and stiff space suits in a reduced gravity environment so of course the motions are going to look a bit odd.  Sometimes they moved slowly and deliberately, but I never got the impression that it was slow motion.

Why slow motion?
I know what you will all be thinking...' it's slow motion because there is no atmosphere.'

I think that should actually work the opposite way and make them faster not slower.
Think about this for a minute:
The Astro liars "train" in water...yes , I said water, because apparently it's the closest thing they can use for space.

Well let's look at this then.
Go to the swimming baths and go into the deep end and swim under water...What happens?
Obviously you swim in a sort of slow motion because the density of the water is creating a big resistance against your body right?

On the moon, as we are told, there is "no atmosphere"... so that means there is " no resistance" at all on those Astronauts...None whatsoever, which means in theory they should be able to move as fast, if not a little bit faster than on Earth.

What's the reason for the slow motion then?

Though you may be able to convince yourself that the astronauts move in 'slow motion' if you look you will find that the dust they kick up is moving at something more like actual speed (taking into account reduced gravity). If you find the silly youtube videos that have speeded up the astronauts to a speed that the creator thinks looks like realtime you will notice that the dust now looks rather speedy.

The reason they appear to be moving in slow motion is because the rate of acceleration due to gravity is much slower. When an astronaut on the moon jumps up in the air it takes longer for him to come back down to the surface because he is only accelerating at 1/6th of what he would be doing on earth.

This video is interesting in a few ways.

First of all, at the 1 minute mark onwards, take a look at the flag. You will notice that it doesn't have it's support arm to keep the flag up.

But that's not really that important.
What is important is at the 1 minute 57 mark , onwards.
Take a look at this piece of crap supposed surveyor craft that apparently landed on the moon all by itself.
Take a look at this piece of rigged up crap and tell me honestly if this thing could land on the moon, given what we are told about how the Apollo craft supposedly did.

It's not just the fact that it obviously landed perfectly, it's about what the hell fuelled it do get there in the first place.

You need to watch them and scrutinise them to see how fake it all is.
Just simply looking over it with a mind of already believing the moon landings to be legit is putting immediate bias in your way, so naturally you won't accept what you see.

If you're a debunker of all of this, then it won't matter to you anyway.
The mere fact that you're dismissing it all as fast as you are, tells me you are not even interested in whether it's a fake.

Any person wanting to find out if it was, would at least look at the evidence and think, "hmmm this does look fishy."

It's irrelevant, as that is not what I'm implying at all.

For clarity, let us assume that all N.A.S.A's videos are legit, ok?

Ok, now going by that, I know want to know why N.A.S.A depict the Astronauts as moving in slow motion. Why should this happen?

well when refering to free falling objects and things like the pendulum. id imagen its because gravity is weeker meaning the object has less potential energy their for will not achive the same velocity as on earth.

because they are wearing suits that way 185 pounds. now yes yes they dnt way that much on the moon but the mass is still the same. you try moving around with that on your back. it requers a lot of energy.

So they can jump up with this mass yet jogging along becomes really hard and that's why they go in slow motion?

Extra mass takes more force to move the same amount of distance. The suit is extra mass to their bodies, yet they do not exhibit extra force when jumping on the moon. However, there is less gravity. Therefore it makes sense that they do not jump higher nor less on the moon, although I don't think it's the 'exact' same.

They look slo-mo because there is longer time between when they take steps. Since there is less gravity, it takes longer for them to be pulled to the ground. Therefore they can't push off the ground as often and can't move as fast.

Going by the bullshit about Earth's gravity being 6 times as heavy as the moons, plus the moon having no atmosphere, the Astro liars should be shifting about quicker than on Earth, not slower.

Uhh, well the atmosphere part is *somewhat* not wrong.
Except the gravity part is. Earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s and the moon's is 1.6 m/s. That means that things will accelerate towards earth much faster.

Ok I'll put it in a nutshell and let's just concentrate on this bit here.

You explain to me, why they train Astronauts in water pools?
Title: Re: Moon Hoax, Not
Post by: SuperHater7810 on January 31, 2013, 05:40:29 PM
They use the pools to practice mock repairs and procedures on satalights before they do it for real in space.
THe best way i can explain it is this. Imagine THe ISS floating in space and an astronaut moving around the outside of it. There is no up or down (remember zero gravity) so he is able to move freely around the outside of the craft. And positon himself anywhere with ease.
The water somewhat replicates this freedom of movement .

Imagine if they practiced climbing around the outside of the mock space craft on dry land. (THeyre not training to be monkeys or acrobats.) They would fall off and break a leg.

Of course water is not the best representation of zero gravity. But its the best that can be done in earths gravity.

The vacuum doesn't matter. The giant ball we know as earth with gravity at 9.8 (m/s)^2 pulling on baumgartner and that moon thing with a gravity of ~1.6 (m/s)^2 that the astronauts are walking on are what matter.

Why slow motion?
I know what you will all be thinking...' it's slow motion because there is no atmosphere.'
What? No. No that's not what we're thinking. We actually have education past middle school(most of us).

What's spectacular about this, is, he miraculously can launch himself back up...
Yes, this is known as low-gravity to anyone who can comprehend the most basic force in the universe.

Take a look at this piece of crap supposed surveyor craft that apparently landed on the moon all by itself.
Take a look at this piece of rigged up crap and tell me honestly if this thing could land on the moon, given what we are told about how the Apollo craft supposedly did.

It's not just the fact that it obviously landed perfectly, it's about what the hell fuelled it do get there in the first place.

Given the fact that space is 0g, and the moon has a very weak gravitational force, and the mission was coordinated by aerospace engineers after years of calculations and planning, it's REALLY not that hard to believe.

And.... a rocket? Seriously what the hell kind of education do you have?

Yes, zero gravity and a supposed vacuum. It's amazing how they float in space isn't it. But , I know, it's the speed of orbit around the Earth as they say.

I mean, the Earth wants to pull them down and yet something wants to pull them up, as speed in a vacuum would, in theory have no effect.

Weird I know.
Anyway: They train them in dense water to work in no atmosphere in supposed floaty space. Makes sense.
It's like me wanting to do a 100 metre sprint in a big vacuum filled gym with no gravity and training for it by running 100 metres under water.  ::)

OMG sceptimatic you seem to be learning something. See what happens when you use common sense.

YOu are exactly right. Everything orbiting the earth is actualy in a sort of free fall. Crazy isnt it. THe hardest part of putting something like the iss into orbit is getting it up to the correct speed it needs in order to cheat gravity. I would have to write two pages on here in order to explain it any good. But you could say they need to be moving faster than they are falling. (I know right) NOw once you are at the correct speed its quite easy to stay there. seeing as you have no atmosphere to give any resistance. Althow you do have some drag caused by gravity. thats why they have to fire up the thrusters every once and a while to give them selves a little boost.

There's still some friction, you say and that's why they have to fire their thrusters  ::)

Try to understand it with a round earth. Many FEers agree orbits are possible in a RE.
I'm not bothered who believes it's possible. I'm  saying it's not possible at all.

Just give me a quick calculation as to how they come to 17,000 mph as a perfect speed to orbit.

The velocity that the ISS travels is determined by a couple physical variables.   In the simplified case of a perfectly circular orbit the velocity can be derived by knowing:

1. The mass of the planet.
2. The distance between the orbiting object to the center of the planet.

V=Sqrt((G*M)/r)

So as you can see there is only one variable that we have control of..  Altitude.
Since the ISS flies at ~180 miles above the Earth the resulting velocity is ~17,500mph.

A.K.A the faster you go the higher you go the larger your orbital radious

nothing is pulling them up. they are constantly falling. you realy dnt understand do you.
Yes I understand but it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. None whatsoever to believe that something can frigging fall around a sphere and yet not crash into it.
It's fantasy.
Not fantasy, just simple physics that can be demonstrated with a ridiculously high mountain and a super powerful cannon.

So the 17,000 mph ISS is technically inside the atmosphere encountering resistance and yet orbits and sustains no damage whatsoever due to friction, however small.

Compare the size of the earth and the iss. Obviously there will be far less objects that would hit the iss.
This is how they avoid it:

Although, this doesn't mean such an impact is impossible. However, it is just sooo much less likely considering the large distances of space. If you think about it, everything has to add up just right, or the object could miss by literally inches.
You are talking about hundreds and hundreds of supposed satellites, plus a supposed space station that are supposedly orbiting Earth every second of the year...year after year and they somehow don't get hit.

It's a big fluffy orbiting fairy tale.

The ISS and other satellites do get hit though... and they do cause damage.
Does the space station get punctured?

I can't tell you yes or no as I'm not sure, but I do know it is protected by thick metals and stuff so that it doesn't happen. Other satellites have been though.

not much. its one of the biggest threats to the station. it can move out of the way of man made objects if given enough warning but om sure micro meteorites would be detected so they could destroy the station. the station can withstand certain sizes but im not sure what kind of size we are talking about.
If they say micrometeorites whizz by at thousands upon thousands of miles per hour, even one the size of a grain of rice is going to cause a shit load of problems isn't it.
Yet I'm sure they will have a system that detects incoming grains from all over that body swerves the ISS out of the way, whilst still maintaining orbit.

Come on man.  ::)

Have you seen the supposed solar panels on the supposed space station?
They're tin foil effigies.
Tiny friction can't affect this tin foil, even at 17,000 mph.

Start by comparing the orbit of the ISS to a jumbo and structure.

Imagine we have a large object that has a mass of around 20'000kg. And we need to design some sort of crane that can lift it. We know there is some sort of force that is constantly acting downwards on the object.(This is what we call gravity) In order to lift it we need to work out how big a force we need to over come the one that is holding the object to the ground. THis is where a good understanding of gravity is needed. This is a very simplafied version of a common problem that faces the people that design buildings, planes and even international space stations.

If we didnt understand gravity as you say we wouldnt be able to over come this seemingly simple problem. And we wouldnt be able to do any thing quite as amazing as what we have in the world

Insulation must keep the internal temperature relatively stable in fluctuating conditions and also shield the cabin from radiation and microwaves. Currently, space craft is insulated with MLI or multilayer insulation. This insulation has multiple layers that serve to insulate and shield spacecraft and satellites from extreme temperatures and radiation. The insulation is composed of Mylar and Dacron. Mylar or Melinex is used for electrical insulation and performance boat sails. It is extremely tough material and has a high tensile strength. Dacron is a thermoplastic polymer used to insulate materials. It has many industrial insulation uses. Mylar and Dacron are layered to create a strong supple insulating fabric. The Mylar also prevents electrical conduction and radiation penetration. The Mylar and Dacron are covered with Kapton – the silver copper colored paper remembered from the first lunar lander. Kapton also composes the outer layer of space suits. Water is then pumped inside the craft via a duct-way of heat exchanges and cold plates to regulate the internal and external temperatures of the craft. Convection heating and cooling is used internally for the air temperature and conduction is used for mechanical parts, engines, and external temperature regulation. Spacecraft have always been well insulated – so much that radiators are required to expel excess heat out into space.

Let's have a think about the moon landings from the start to finish.

Apollo 11, the first landing:
It starts off with a supposedly huge Saturn V rocket that blasts off , gets into space and jettisons most of it's size.
We are left with a command module housing a Lunar lander that flies into moon orbit. How they managed to calculate what the hell moons orbit would be is anyone's guess but they will have silly figures for that.

Once near the moon, the Astronauts get into the LEM and it detaches from the command module. Once it does this, it flies on towards the moon and when it's close enough, it about turns so it's rocket nozzle faces the moon.

It then descends to the moons surface using little retro rocket boosters to keep it's balance, all done by a computer supposedly designed to steady it.
These same retro boosters made the supposed training Earth LEM prototype crash because it couldn't keep it balanced, yet in "no supposed atmosphere" some computer managed to keep balancing this LEM all the way to the surface.

While this is happening, the command module is somehow whizzing around the moon constantly.
So up to now, we have 5 engines taking the Saturn V into space, then the command module separates which also has an engine, then goes to the moon, where the LEM separates, which as an engine and lands on the moon.
Once they finish on the moon, they ascend by separating from the LEM legs and engine and using yet another engine, they ascend from the moon and somehow manage to re dock with the command module, which has never ever been attempted before but goes without a hitch.

Once connected, the LEM ,( let's call it a lime top because that's exactly what it is and a reason why they call it a LEM), then gets jettisoned once the Astronauts get into the command module, through the only place possible, which is where the "parachutes" are stored.

The command module then fires up and sends then on towards the Earth, where the cone jettisons the remaining part of the command module away and free falls to Earth, encountering supposed thousands of degree friction heat to it's underside, yet it didn't have any special supposed shuttle type heat tiles on it, it was simply a special hammerite heat resistant paint or something.

Once they hit the friction, I assume they then go into the Felix Baumgartner vacuum free fall where there is no air to keep them steady and they can go into a death spin, flip, at unbelievable speeds until they hit atmospheric friction again, which slows them down to a supposed speed where they can deploy their parachutes...obviously deployed automatically using another computer that tells the capsule when to deploy.

They then land in the sea, where a helicopter is strategically on hand to pick them up as it's all calculated somehow.

If people want to believe in all this shite then go right ahead but don;t be telling me that I'm some kind of uneducated nut job for choosing to see it for what it is and was.

Once they hit the friction, I assume they then go into the Felix Baumgartner vacuum free fall where there is no air to keep them steady and they can go into a death spin, flip, at unbelievable speeds until they hit atmospheric friction again, which slows them down to a supposed speed where they can deploy their parachutes...obviously deployed automatically using another computer that tells the capsule when to deploy.

They then land in the sea, where a helicopter is strategically on hand to pick them up as it's all calculated somehow.

If people want to believe in all this shite then go right ahead but don;t be telling me that I'm some kind of uneducated nut job for choosing to see it for what it is and was.

Would you like me to show you the math on how they calculated rendezvous with the moon and the other ship? I only ask because it will take a long time to find the figures and you will probably call it bs anyway.

their is absolutly nothing that says non of that is possible. calling it all fantisy dosent make it so it just means you dont understand it. thats not the worlds fault. its your bug to bear not ours. but what this vedio is getting at is all this is perfectly physicly and technoligicly possible for the time, but what isnt is filming it. filming the hoax is imposible using the technoligy of the day. i worked as a projectionist for just over a year so i know a bit of what im talking about hear. ANY and ALL films using celluloid film have the follwing.
emulsion scratch
base scratches
dust contamination
splice marks
even today when you got to the cinema and watch a celluloid film you see all these things if you look closly. so where are they on the moon mitons fotage. they have to be on it if it was recoreded on earth. becuse they would have to have used celluloid film to do it. watch any historical footage recorded on earth and you will see what i mean.

i belive the origional fottage of apollo 11 was destoyed by accident. but dsnt take away from what was said in the origional op. billions of prople watched the origional fottage. and no one saw the problems he brought up that would have occured if it was a pre recording. which they didnt have the tech to do any way even if they wanted to.
This is true that they "lost" the original footage. How in the world do you lose the footage of the biggest achievement of mankind. They are smart enough to make the accomplishment, and spend all that money. But not smart enough to keep the tapes, or find them in the years since they were "lost". Yeah, I believe that.

Alright well I did the math anyway. I didn't do the calculations for the ship rendezvous as I haven't found out enough info for it yet.

So, this is how they found the angle to get to the moon:
pi*(sqrt(6,525+385,000)^3)/(8*398,600.442)=430,997.9839                        (Time)
sqrt(398,600.442/385,000)*430,997.9839/385,000*180/pi=65.26                (Angular Velocity)
180-sqrt(398,600.442/385,000)*430,997.9839/385,000*180/pi=114.74       (Phase Angle)

a tragic loss. but only a mistake. but not evidence of a cover up. its only apollo 11 fotage that was lost. the rest is all still in existance as far as i am aware. so why didnt they lose all the rest if they were trying to hide anything.

You would have been much more credible if you had posted a big dogs turd with candles in it saying happy birthday poochy poo.

I can't believe you said you would do the calculations, then come back with that crap.

If you want to do some calculations, try this.

Tell me why a craft orbits the Earth at 17,000 mph low Earth orbit.
Tell me why a craft orbits the Earth, middle Earth orbit and what speed.
Tell me why a craft orbits the Earth at high Earth orbit and at what speed.

Then tell me why and how a craft orbits a supposed moon with no atmosphere and is supposedly rotating at 10mph yet the craft supposedly orbits it at great speed.

The shit they come out with is not only embarrassing, it's verging on the insanely ridiculous.

Yes, I'm sure you would put your winning lottery ticket in front of a whirling fan on top of a sky scraper wouldn't you because in effect this is tantamount to what N.A.S.A may as well have done.
Lost the footage, my arse.

They appear to have lost the footage to a lot of Apollo stuff it seems.

1969 to 1972, six missions landed on the moon and 40 years later nobody has been to the moon. Not one person.

what other apollo fottage has been lost?
and i went to disney once and it cost a stupid amount of money so i didnt go again. it was fun at the time and got to brag about it to my mates but wont go again unless it gets cheeper. same thing realy. they spend 100 billion dolars in todays money to go to the moon. do they seem to have that kind of money laying around today? or the political will or public suport?

You are missing the whole point.

You can fill out as many equations as you want and math, yet it's all based on a starting point of bullshit where one piece of bullshit starts off at a number and the rest follow it to cater for more bullshit.

My reasonings are simple basic logic, not equations designed to explain bull.

Well all 3 include "why a craft orbits earth" and it's simple; they are falling but miss earth.
To calculate the speed of a craft in circular orbit you may use this nifty equation: sqrt(μ/r) where μ is gravitational parameter and r is radius of the orbit (that is including the radius of the body it is orbiting).

LEO (160km-2,000km): sqrt(398,600.4418/6,525)=7.8159km/s= 17,483mph

MEO (2,000km-35,000km): sqrt(398,600.4418/8,365)=6.903km/s= 15,441mph

HEI (35,000km and up): sqrt(398,600.4418/41,365)=3.1042km/s= 6,943mph

Oh, and atmosphere and the rotation of the planet have literally NOTHING to do with orbits!!!!! Nothing! (besides the name of the orbit but w/e)

Edit: Well by atmosphere having nothing to do I mean atmospheres do not help crafts stay in orbit.

i belive they used solar eclipses.  but im not going to bother with the math as we are quite aware that you dnt understand math one small bit.

and yes to your moon question they used their engins to leave the earths orbit.
I once saw a magician at a circus doing a magic trick when I was a kid and it looked amazing. I found out later how he done that trick and guess what?

I didn't use any calculations to figure it out.

There's a few ways to figure out bull shit.
1. you can smell it.

2. You can deduce it's bull shit by using a lie detector.

3. You can observe facial mannerisms and body movement.

4. You can use simple logic and a hunch.

5. You can find discrepancies among figures.

Seeing as this is about moon landings, we can discount number one on the basis that there's no smell. We also cannot use a lie detector because it would not be allowed.
We can observe facial mannerisms to give is a clue to a liar and number 4 can be used in conjunction with number 3.
Number 5 can be done, yet it can be manipulated by the liars.

Facial mannerisms , I'm sure many people can spot a liar but how about spotting 3.

I'd like everyone to join in here if you will.
Call this a poll over the video I'm going to show you, which is the post Apollo 11 press conference.

I'll give you 4 scenarios and all you have to do is pick one or two answers and explain why you chose it/them.

1.  These Astronauts appear to be suffering from the stress of being on the moon and being quarantined?

2. Do these Astronauts appear nervous and unable to communicate properly because they are not used to the media?

3. Do these people feel ashamed that they have to spend their time lying their arses off about an event which never happened.

4. Do these Astronauts look like they are under orders to say what they are being told to say and are scared  and ashamed at the same time.

mir had a lot of impact damage by the end of its life. lots of pitting and cracks especialy on the solar panles. no breach of the living quarters though.
pitting and cracking eh?

Have you seen the supposed solar panels on the supposed space station?
They're tin foil effigies.
Tiny friction can't affect this tin foil, even at 17,000 mph.

Was it the shoehorned math that made you accept all this crap or was it just simple faith in what you were told?

Sceptimatic, since you don't believe the ISS exists, what is it you think we're looking at when we see it go overhead?

Earlier he said it must be a 'blimp' or some sort of aircraft.

I expect he will explain how a blimp can move at those speeds and that height, then.

My mistake, he's ignoring the issue.

And how in the hell do you know that?
This is the problem with you people. You profess to know that there are satellites in space because you are so conditioned to believing what supposed top scientists teach you that you lose all sight of logical thought to even question it.
When you look up and see flashes of light skimming the sky, it's a satellite and other things are meteorites when it suits.
There's nothing wrong with having faith in science and there's nothing wrong with sticking rigidly to what you believe humans are capable of, even in space if you have no inclination to think or believe anything otherwise.

You accept satellites because you maybe use a sat nav, sky TV and many other varieties of things that supposedly use satellites to make your life easier and for some reason you know they are in space because you think it's impossible for it to be Earth based, yet it's blatantly clear that all of what is supposed to be in space transmitting, is easily produced on Earth, so why the need for communication satellites?

To think that many people have spent years of their lives studying something they know nothing about and yet are marked on what they absorbed whilst being schooled, only to gain a degree in something that is based on nothing more than fantasy and bull shit. That's the sad part and it's called astro physics.

You are of the belief that a shooting star as people call them, have to whizz by at faster than your supposed satellite, yet you honestly have no clue.

I get called arrogant for dismissing things but it's no more arrogant than you people pretending you know what stuff in space is and does because you have been to university or studied some space garbage.

The truth is, the most you can do as far as space goes, is map directions of stars and visual planets etc, stuff like that.
As for most other stuff, you are simply going on rigged up theories and hypothesis and a lot of absolute crap as far as space is concerned, yet are too arrogant to even dare to admit that there's a possibility you may have been duped with certain stuff as it weakens your stance and beliefs.

What dnt you understand about their speeds? Also a shotgun star only lasts a few seconds on average. Starting of realy faint then over the space of a few seconds getting much much brighter then suddenly vanishing once they have burnt up. Very easily distinguishable from sats.

Title: Re: Moon Hoax, Not
Post by: Pythagoras on February 04, 2013, 02:46:55 AM
Using the difference in the length of the shadows, we can calculate the difference in the angle at which the sunlight hit the northern most post, and the sunlight that hit the southernmost post. That angle this gives us is a small bit of 360 degrees. The distance between the two of the postsis a small bit of the earth's surface.

Those little slices are proportionate to the whole, so by figuring out what percentage of 360 degrees that small angle is, it's possible to calculate what percentage of the earth's circumference the distance between the northernmost and southernmost point is.

You do know that a meteor entering earths atmosphere at an angle at high speed that burns up in a few seconds that can even appear orange if it's big enough and a satellite in orbit that goes from horizon to horizon at a slow but steady speed and doesn't disintegrate look different right? Of course not. That would be logical.

Poe's law applies to this thread so very much, it's actually kind of scary.

OT: Sceptimatic, assuming you're not a troll, I'm going to try my very best to explain to you the basic workings of a satellite. First, I'm going to start off by stating that satellites aren't solely human creations; we derived the idea from those already surrounding our very existence. The Earth, the moon, the asteroid belt, and millions of other solar bodies are satellites to other solar bodies, one example being the Sun. Yes, we are in fact a satellite around our own Sun. How is this possible, you ask? By counteracting the force that gravity exerts on us with a velocity perpendicular to the direction with which gravity is exerting on us. I will NOT be explaining WHY an object exerts gravity, as I do not know why it exists, I merely know that repeated studies of gravity show it to be a force consistent enough that we can draw many scientifically-backed assumptions from it.

We'll take a look first at the idea of a cannon, as it was earlier mention in this thread. A cannon will shoot a ball forward, and since we have gravity and so much air resistance the ball will eventually slow down and return to Earth. Gravity accounts for the balls return to Earth. The atmosphere around us accounts for the balls deceleration due to friction and air pressure built up in front of it. If we increase the speed with which the ball is launched, the distance it travels also increases. If this is were drawn out, the ball would show an arc as it returns back to Earth, rather than showing a continuous straight line followed by a sudden drop in height.

Now consider this same cannon but instead of a level surface, imagine it's on the top of a large hill. The cannon will fire many balls with a different acceleration to plot the landing points. As it fires faster and faster, the balls move farther and farther down this hill. Because the hill is at a decline, the ball has to fall farther before it reaches the ground, but Earth's gravity is still pulling on it no matter how fast it travels.

If you imagine this getting larger and larger, and on a round planet, that ball is either going to return to Earth, or it's going to launch out of the atmosphere, beyond Earth's event horizon (because gravity is relative to the size of the object, and all objects exert a gravitational force) and into space.

But what if an object could move fast enough that even though it is being pulled back to Earth, it never hits? It may sound like crazy talk, but that's exactly what satellites do. They are being pulled back to Earth by its gravity, but due to their velocity the objects will move around the Earth rather than slamming into it. If the object were to lose speed over time and it wasn't compensated for it would eventually fall to the surface. If its trajectory were to be modified enough while holding an appropriate speed, the object would escape us and go off into space. I'm not saying this is an over-night endeavor to accomplish the creation of a satellite that will orbit Earth, but it's not something we haven't accomplished at all.

This explanation here is exactly how the Earth maintains its orbit around the Sun. We are moving fast enough perpendicular to the gravity that the Sun exerts on our planet that we don't crash into it, but slow enough that we don't "float" away into space. This is also how the moon stays within our orbit.

The math determined to find out how fast one needs to travel to not come crashing down has been done for me by a previous poster. Many of the numbers put into those equations are pulled from other real world situations. Gravity on Earth can be determined by dropping an object in a vacuum and timing how long it takes such an object to hit the ground. We then simplify it to its acceleration (9.8m/s^2).

You then asked how we determined the gravity of the moon. That can be determined by F = (G * m1 * m2)/r^2. G is a constant, m1 would be the mass of the moon, and m2 would be the mass of another object, and r is the distance between the two objects. In this case, m2 could be the mass of a person on the planet, and r is the distance from the center of the moon to the person on the surface. This will provide the gravity that the moon has.

Next you'll ask how we determined the mass of the moon, as well as the diameter. This here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler's_laws_of_planetary_motion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler's_laws_of_planetary_motion)) will provide you with the Laws (equations) that were determined FOUR HUNDRED years ago, and to this day have been tested and retested innumerable times and still hold up. This isn't due to brainwashing, as something would have surfaced over these 400 years to deem the laws as invalid. If someone else wants to get into details, that would be great. Reading into some detail will unveil many of the mysteries of how we have accomplished such feats in our life, such as helping determine the age of the universe, and giving us an idea of what else is out there beyond our small world.

You also mentioned that being underwater doesn't make a lick of sense for outer space training. Being underwater simulates the distortion of not knowing which way is up or down, and would also have a similar feel to a zero g environment. This, obviously, isn't eliminating the issue of an atmosphere around you, but that's not what they had problems with while in space, so it was less of an issue. An alternative to underwater training would be riding on a specially designed airplane that reaches significant altitudes and then for 30 seconds to a minute takes an almost nosedive which puts you into free fall, and is a very effective simulation to zero g.

It may be tough to grasp these concepts, especially if you don't have a whole lot of math history, but let me ask you a couple questions that anyone with such a viewpoint as yours should at least take into consideration:

1. If we had faked the moon landing, wouldn't the Soviets - who were competing tooth and nail against us - have called us out on it? What would they gain from keeping quiet about the whole ordeal? Wouldn't it have been heavily in their interest to call out our "bullshit"?

2. If satellites don't exist in orbit around our Earth, why is it that all satellite dishes in any given region all point in the exact same direction at an angle inconsistent with any sort of land-based mechanism? Wouldn't more people be stepping forward to call shenanigans on costly satellite dishes that are entirely unnecessary?

3. Why believe the Earth is flat? I know they're your beliefs to believe in, but what evidence is there to support the Earth being flat? There is overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

I'm a very open-minded person with the mindset of live and let live; everyone should be entitled to their own opinions and ideas about life even if I don't agree with it, but I cannot for the life of me understand why you chose to believe the subject matter of the three questions I just asked. The problem with the evidence you brought forth is that none of them actually contain any objective evidence supporting any of these claims. Yeah, maybe they way some of the footage looks is a little wonky, but when you watch a video over and over again and you're absolutely determined that an event didn't happen, you're going to start finding "things". Many of these phenomena can be explained using some simple math/science/logic or researching the subject. It's perfectly all right to question what society presents us - it's an important part of critical thinking - but that doesn't mean that everything presented to us is a lie. Not comprehending all that goes on in this world and casting it aside as a brainwashing lie doesn't help progress society as a whole. So many sites on the internet offer wonderful insight into how these and many other functions work, and if you take the time to ask questions there are so many people willing to help you better understand a concept. Take advantage of these tools and be thankful that you don't live in a country like North Korea, where even having a thought of your own is enough to get you killed, if not worse.

I do think they actually believe that the earth is flat. And I can agree with you on the idea that they're definitely asking some interesting questions about perception. I'm more apt to say that we should be questioning the actions of other groups, rather than singling out science and calling it a giant conspiracy.

I have never mistaken a shooting star for a satellite.
Of course you haven't.
The reason you haven't, is because you have no clue what they are so how are you going to distinguish?

What? Even if satellites are fake, there's still a clear difference between whatever they really are, and shooting stars. They don't behave the same.
I'm simply giving a take from the average Joe's perspective. Anything that moves extremely fast in the sky are immediately pointed to with a " oh look. a shooting star."
It doesn't mean it's a star, it just means it's a fast object of whatever sorts.

Repeated studies of gravity have come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful explanations, all of which prove nothing, except that somehow it keeps out feet on the deck, allows apples and stuff to fall and somehow allows stronger planets to pull weaker one's towards them, yet still allowing the weaker planets to resist being sucked in. In all honesty, I don't believe gravity exists at all.

Quote
You mean, like how so called satellites can orbit this Earth from 23,000 miles out and orbit it, so precisely to keep in perfect geo stationary orbit, that the Earth must have been measured to the nearest few inches. Not only that. It's how these 23,000 mile out satellites actually orbit the Earth and what speed these satellites would need to be going to keep following a 1000 mph rotating Earth.

This explanation here is exactly how the Earth maintains its orbit around the Sun. We are moving fast enough perpendicular to the gravity that the Sun exerts on our planet that we don't crash into it, but slow enough that we don't "float" away into space.

I think it's just the mass, plus weight of the object dropped in itself and has nothing to do with what's perceived as gravity. This may sound ignorant but is it any more ignorant than for us to profess we actually really know what gravity is.

You then asked how we determined the gravity of the moon. That can be determined by F = (G * m1 * m2)/r^2. G is a constant, m1 would be the mass of the moon, and m2 would be the mass of another object, and r is the distance between the two objects.

Well, I don't accept any of that. Not to be ignorant on purpose or anything. It's just that, I do not go with the moons distance or size, the same as I don't go with the Suns.

To me, water is a million miles away from any zero G as we are told zero g isand it doesn't simulate anything that resembles movement in ythat environment, in fact I'd say the total opposite as you're buoyant and under dense conditions in water

If they were a genuine enemy and weren't faking their own space missions, then maybe, yes.

Wouldn't more people be stepping forward to call shenanigans on costly satellite dishes that are entirely unnecessary?
Quote
Transmitters are huge and the signals are simply scrambled with sky dishes.The reason why they use dishes is to receive a direct signal from wherever the transmitter is,Nobody will call it out because nobody can prove it's not from satellites.

3. Why believe the Earth is flat? I know they're your beliefs to believe in, but what evidence is there to support the Earth being flat? There is overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
Quote
In my mind, there's overwhelming evidence of shoe horned theories running all the way through a round rotating Earth. There is with a flat Earth and many problems need to be ironed out, yet I'd rather focus on a flat Earth than focus on a magical round one.

I'm a very open-minded person with the mindset of live and let live; everyone should be entitled to their own opinions and ideas about life even if I don't agree with it, but I cannot for the life of me understand why you chose to believe the subject matter of the three questions I just asked.

I think the major problem that many have when refusing to look at evidence of fakery with supposed scientific  feats like the moon landings, is getting too focused on using mathematics to discount something that should be really plain to see, as in fakery.

Of course we need math with virtually everyday things in life from the simple to the complicated, yet sometimes, casting a critical eye first before numbers even come into it, should give a better unbiased insight into whether something appears real or looks so fake that numbers are not needed to calculate the feasibility of something like that.

We see the calculations given out for the Saturn V for instance and you will get people that say, " yes, yes, it happened because the figures add up and the Saturn V weighed x amount of kilo and the engines gave out the thrust of x amount of pounds, so it works, yet never thinking to question if such a rocket is possible in the actual size, weight and output it gives...it's just accepted as true.

People use 1969 as a time where it was hard for them to fake things, due to the limited technology, yet the film,Capricorn one was made in 1977, which is only 8 years after the supposed moon landing, so we can pretty much be certain that there was enough technology in place to pull something like this off, especially with the crap television footage they put out of the actual supposed landing.

It takes an unbiased in depth critical analysis of all footage and pictures, plus the stories from the own mouths of Astro liars involved to make up a bigger picture that at least will confirm to yourself that all is not right.

A conspiracy theory is simply that when you have no evidence to go on and even when you do find evidence of some anomaly, you have to rule out coincidence and freak happenings in video or pictures that make things appear, not what they really are.
The more anomalies you find, the more you dig.
Once you dig further and start bringing up even more anomalies, that conspiracy becomes a possibility of it being a fact, yet it's still merely a conspiracy nonetheless.

The thing about focusing and digging into stuff like this, is, you tend to be sharper and sharper each time you pull up some new footage and find you are now scrutinising the smallest details...details that most people would never dream of looking at, as in, for instance, light sources on the moon as we are led to believe they are on the moon.

So what we have to sift through, are snippets of evidence, all of which will be debunked by whatever means necessary, as it's only natural they cannot say, "oh ok it's a fair cop, you found us out" can they?

When you are focused on the digging, you come up with even more evidence, some that is more concrete than the last and then the conspiracy becomes a probability, yet the more and more you pick from what you scrutinise, it then becomes so obvious of a fake that it becomes a conspiracy "fact."

It's nailed on that any discrepancy people find about something, billed as official and the truth, will be immediately debunked no matter how absurd the debunking is.

You can make anyone believe anything, no matter how ridiculous it appears to be, as has been proved time and time and time again throughout history as long as it's remotely feasible and not 100% blatant that even a sheep can see through it.

Why would anyone question the moon landings if indeed they were mans finest moment, I mean, it would have been an exciting time for people to think that we can land on other planets or at least the moon as a starter and yet leave people to dream of what we could do in the year 2000.

Well we have seen what we can do , in the year 2000 and right up till now... we can supposedly send a rover to Mars and take live video and stuff and yet, we cannot land a man on the moon. How weird is that.
We cannot land a man on the moon because somehow  we don't have the right equipment and rockets to do that, yet there is the Saturn V blue prints, which I'm sure could be tweaked to even better things, if 1969 is anything to go by. But no... we seem to be fighting against a few minor hiccups, like the radiation belts being more dangerous than first thought....hmmm. it didn't bother all the other astronauts on the 6 missions to the moon did it?

Now , it's more dangerous.
The other reasons we haven't been back is......wait for it..................... "what's the point"...yep, what's the point? we have already been there 6 times already and it's basically a cement like grey looking cratered, rocky lump of nothingness, yet we supposedly keep bouncing lasers off a few reflectors continuously, supposedly anyway.

So the moon is a waste of time, yet we can send Astro liar after Astro liar to the international space station, time and time and time again, to do stupid experiment for us all to see, like, floating about...doing somersaults, lifting weights, eating food, pissing about with globules of water and blowing on it...brushing teeth, showing us how to use a piss sucking, arse grabbing suction system, etc, etc, etc.

Are they bored of this?

Noooooooo, they are not, in-fact, they keep sending little capsules up to bolt onto it, with a few more reflectors and the latest is going to be an inflatable capsule, so by about 2025, viewing the ISS by eye will be simple for all of us, because we will notice a big numb inflatable Michelen man about 2 miles wide or something. lol

Moon landing anomalies are many and some footage is so silly , it should even need to leave any rational person in any doubt that it was faked, even though the professional debunkers use any means necessary, no matter what.

Just a few anomalies and the ones which are supposedly easily debunked and usually even get cast aside by those that believe it's a hoax are...
The flag waving on the moon:
The explanation for this is plausible on face value, which is, "oh, the Astro liar was twisting the pole into the ground and that's why the flag waves like it does, Yet it would be more understandable if they were planting the flag directly into he ground and twisting it in, like we would putting one into the ground in our gardens...we would twist it in.
The problem is, they already had a pole in the ground to simple push the top part of the flat pole into. But anyway...the other reason why the twisting effect wouldn't have caused the flag to wave like it did, was because of their gloves, which were bulky and also pressurised to 5 psi as we were told.

It would be impossible to even get a grip on a small flag pole with gloves like that on, never mind twist it, unless their gloves weren't pressurised, which means they weren't on the moon and were in a studio or the desert.
Judging by the stillness of the flags in some clips many clips, I'd say a studio, yet even a studio creates air movement, whether it's by the people on set, or the movement of the Astro liars themselves, which you can clearly see in this clip.

Watch it all because this also brings into question, the sunlight bathed flag against a dark ground, when in fact the ground should be lit up, if the flag is lit like that, unless a spotlight was focused just on the upper part of the flag and area.

Anyway, look at it all and pay attention to the flag when the Astro liar runs past the camera at about the 2.30 onwards mark.

Apollo 15 flag waving (http://#)

Remember, in the early 60's when Kennedy said they would land a man on the moon, it really was pre-historic technology and also by not knowing what the moon is made of and it's terrain etc, they had to make the moon footage as real as "they" believed the moon would be like and to do that would take a lot of thought and getting things right, which they probably believed they did get right, or right enough to fool the public as it would have only been seen once or twice in TV re-runs of that time and not something that the ordinary Joe public could rewind to watch again and again,so in that effect, they pulled it off.

Today, people have the opportunity to scrutinise it and see it for what it was, yet others will hang  onto it being real because they grew up with it and accept it unconditionally as a feat of engineering and physics and human bravery and endeavour.

You have a choice to take part if you want to, just the same as everyone else. We are all stubborn in our stance, whether someone thinks they know better or not.
I'm 100% certain it was faked, so why in the hell am I going to back track when someone like you comes along and tells me that it's all been debunked when "none" of it has been debunked. It's simply been denied with a lame excuse.

If you are honest with yourself, you are just looking for faults and don't want to accept that humanity can work together to achieve something as great as landing on the moon.
The mere fact that you don't question one thing, tells me that you are not even looking at it critically, you are just in denial of any fakery that's all.
I do not believe, any rational person can look at it all and decide there is nothing amiss, when it's as plain as day.

Waving flag, in numerous videos.
Rockets that in reality would not leave the earth.
Astronaut suits that at best, would do you for a cold and windy winters day/night but would do nothing for you in a vacuum.
Shadows intersecting and also Astro liars lit up like beacons as are the flags and markings of the flag on loony landers.
The amount of photos taken on missions would have been impossible for the time they were on the supposed moon, when you take into account all the stuff they had to supposedly do.
Supposedly remote control operation of a camera on the moons surface by someone on earth that managed to expertly get  panned video footage off the piece of crap kettle taking off from the moon.

Packing a so called lunar rover into the side of the lunar lander as if it would be balanced. lol
Unpacking the lunar rover like a fold up meccano buggy, that clicks together like a kids bike.

The lunar rover supposedly on the moons surface and yet, no tyre tracks near it as if it was lowered into position or magically hovered there.

The sun looking like a spotlight in the background,
Not a star to be seen.

Minus 250 at night and plus 250 during the day, should have flash frozen or baked the Astro liars to death as well as rendering the fuel, batteries and equipment used as no more good.

A lunar lander with a door that opens inwards, which would not allow 2 suited men inside it to actually open it to get out.

No disturbed ground under the lander, despite the rocket nozzle being about 2 feet from the deck.
The supposed top thrusters of the lunar lander that supposedly steered it horizontally would have tipped it over.

The moon supposedly rotates at 10 mph, so the lander should have at least skidded it's footpads along the surface on landing, even if it was just a few feet.
Not a speck of dust on the lander foot pads.

Astro liars jumping about and falling over whilst supposedly doing experiments, seeming oblivious to the dangers of a ripped space suit accident.

Taking off from the moon in spite of the rocket engine sitting on top of the landing engine and nozzle and yet the ascending module has no nozzle at all.

Wires can clearly be see n in some footage and also Astro liars can clearly be seen to be aided by getting pulled up by wires.

The earth looking like the size of the moon, supposedly from the moon, despite it supposedly being 4 times as big.

Interviewed Astro liars , sweating and stammering and looking guilty as sin when trying to explain their answers to questions asked of them.

In consistencies with Astro liars stories of the supposed missions.
The supposed Van Allen radiation belts caused no problems to the Astro liars, through the thin aluminium craft, yet years later after the missions, N.A.S.A decides the belts could be more dangerous than first thought.  ::)

Automatically programming the lunar lander to land on the moon, regardless of the fact it had never been done before and yet  32k of memory supposedly achieved this, until Armstrong allegedly , manually steered it to the floor.

I could go on and on but this is the shit we are fed and people buy into it because excuses get made as to why this and that happened, yet there is far, far too much of it that screams fake.

Many people have actually woke up to it being faked, anyway.
I mean, they even lost a lot of data and diagrams of the supposed craft that took them to the moon. Imagine that.
The biggest achievement of mankind and they somehow lose much of the data for it all. I wonder why.  ::)

Moon rover with no rover tracks? Even if it was recorded on earth it would have been pushed into position? The pictures you show are such low contrast you can make out any fine detail on the surface. Or they are surrounded in foot prints

A door opening inwards would not let them out? Have you studied the schematics and internal volume measurements to come to you conclusion or just guessed?


10 mph moon and skidding? Realy? Your lack of knowledge of basic physics is just outstanding it makes me cry with laughter.

Ascending module has no engine? Really? Did you studied the schematics or once again is this a guess?

No one has ever said passing through the can Allan belt is dangerous. I believe you pass through it in less than an hour. Only prolonged exposer is dangerous.

Why do you think big computers are needed to land the lander. All it is is basic maths. All pre calculated.

Once again an awful lot of why you can't get it is because you just don't understand basic concepts. To the point you accuse anyone who does know as being a blind sheep that is brainwashed. No they aren't brainwashed they are educated.

why cant you understand how they landed on the moon. what has 10 mph got to do with anything. yes the moon rotates at 10 mph at the equator remember not where they landed.. the earth rotates at just over 1000mph and a helicopter manages to land. same thing.

in reguards to the engins you have shown us no diagrams showing what your greviance is with the layout. and wiers used. no engineers that have studied the designs in detail have ever found any reason why it wouldnt work. are you an engineer?
luckely for you i have the anserws for you.
The Moon landers used Aerozine 50 (fuel) and dinitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer) propellants, chosen for simplicity and reliability; they ignite hypergolically –upon contact– without the need for a spark. These propellants produce a nearly transparent exhaust.[98] The same fuel was used by the core of the American Titan rocket. The transparency of their plumes is apparent in many launch photos. The plumes of rocket engines fired in a vacuum spread out very quickly as they leave the engine nozzle ,further lessening their visibility. Finally, rocket engines often run "rich" to slow internal corrosion. On Earth, the excess fuel burns in contact with atmospheric oxygen. This cannot happen in a vacuum

remember your claim that the back packs could not work in a vacume because of the extreme temps?
well read this

The cooling units could only work in a vacuum. Water from a tank in the backpack flowed out through tiny pores in a metal sublimator plate where it quickly vaporized into space. The loss of the heat of vaporization froze the remaining water, forming a layer of ice on the outside of the plate that also sublimated into space (turning from a solid directly into a gas). A separate water loop flowed through the LCG (Liquid Cooling Garment) worn by the astronaut, carrying his metabolic waste heat through the sublimator plate where it was cooled and returned to the LCG. Twelve pounds [5.4 kg] of feedwater gave about eight hours of cooling; because of its bulk, it was often the limiting consumable on the length of an EVA. Because this system could not work in an atmosphere, the astronauts needed large external chillers to keep them comfortable during Earth training

3. Form a completer logical sentence for your lander argument. I can't for the life of me understand what you're talking about.
Quote
Take a look at this piece of crap. The ascent engine is sat on the lander engine, it should have been catastrophic the minute they ignited that, if it was real of course. (http://)

4. Do you REALLY think they would record this in a studio(impossible at the time), have the flag waving like crazy when they're putting it down due to a breeze, and then AIR THE FOOTAGE ANYWAYS? Like seriously. Momentum is your answer, and this is why they aired it. They didn't give shit.
Quote
I dion;t mention momentum, Thaggy did. I said it was simply air flow, as in some dick head opened a door or the Astro liar caused the air flow as he ran past it.

And fun fact: They only needed about 6500 lines of code to maneuver the lunar and command module.
Yea and about 6500 lines of coke to even dare land  on the moon with that cardboard kids project piece of crap lander.  ;D

It takes an unbiased in depth critical analysis of all footage and pictures,

You and others go into detail ,as many like you do..about focus, perspective, angles, shadows and such to explain something that should not even need to be explained ..and simply just accepted as fake.

So which is it? 

Unbiased analysis, or biased automatic acceptance.
Unbiased analysis. I used to be silly once and believed the landings happened. I've been a penned in sheep for a long time too but when you see the stuff they used, which I had never seen until about 10 years ago, then you start to question it, unbiased and open minded, which I did.
My findings are , it's 100% fake.

Explain a few things about this video...
How can a jalopy/ tin can/ rocket or whatever that is, just pop off the lander legs and shoot up like that, without any disturbance to the legs.
If these things can work in a vacuum (chuckles) them why didn't it blow the lander legs over or at least disturb them?

Also, why it ascends, where is the rocket nozzle and why does the camera capture it up to a certain height , then it illuminates like a beacon and starts to come back down to the moon.
I'm sure there will be some good answers to these.

Here's a little project for those who are not sure if the landings happened or not.
See how many anomalies and errors you can pick up out of this full video.
Put down the times of each one.
I'll wait a day before I pick out the silliness of it.
If you can't pick out any problems, then I don't want you to tell me...I'd prefer it if you said nothing. This is basically aimed at those that will clearly state it's all legit and how it should be. You know who you are.  ;D

The answer is simple: 0:01, 0:02, 0:03 and so on until 29:08. If you want to say "Ugh, that stinks" without a single good reason, everything is an anomaly.

If you want to do the actual work, then choose any one thing and demonstrate its falseness with an experiment.

skeptic in the video of the lander taking off what are you talking about? not disturbing the legs? can you not see all the shiny foil like material flaping all over the place and all the dust blown of the surface? the legs are a solid structure just like your tabe.why would they fall all over the place?

"iluminates like a beacon then and starts to come back down"
what are you on about. its iluminated because its refelecting the sun. and faling back down? at no point does the lander come back down.

and you cant see the ascent engin? why would you? its not bilowing fire. this isnt hollywood remember its real life. and look at the quality. its hardly super hd that you can zoomk in on and enhance. the engin nozzel is embeded in the botom ot the ascent stage. picture below.

If these things can work in a vacuum (chuckles)

(chuckles) because you still don't accept how a rocket works.

Pythagoras pretty much explained the rest.  Without the rest of the moon in the picture, auto exposure will make the only object visible look much brighter.  Looks like the camera loses focus too.  Try actually experimenting with an auto focus/exposure video camera some evening on distant bright objects.

It isn't a matter of the module coming back down, it's a matter of the camera not tracking it very well.  You really couldn't figure that out?  You really think it was descending, and then started going up and down, up and down?

See how many anomalies and errors you can pick up out of this full video.

We eagerly await the results of an in-depth review by someone who appears to have a lack of knowledge *of how shadow and lighting, camera exposure, and momentum works, and a biased and baseless opinion of how rockets work.

I see a lot of blowing as it lifts off, and those fireworks are exploding bolts.  Look it up.

The camera pans down back to the surface.  Wow.  They stopped tracking a small blurry bright module and panned back to the surface.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrotechnic_fastener (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrotechnic_fastener)
Quote
A pyrotechnic fastener (also called an explosive bolt, or pyro, within context) is a fastener (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fastener), usually a nut or bolt, that incorporates a pyrotechnic charge (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosive_material) that can be initiated remotely. One or more explosive charges embedded within the bolt are typically activated by an electric (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity) current, and the charge breaks the bolt into two or more pieces. The bolt is typically scored around its circumference (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumference) at the point(s) where the severance should occur.[1] Such bolts are often used in space applications to ensure separation between rocket stages, because they are lighter and much more reliable than mechanical latches (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latch_%28hardware%29).

Ok so here goes.

If the Earth is rotating at 1040 mph at the equator and is also orbiting the Sun at 67,000 mph, then once this piece of shit Apollo craft leaves earth on a trajectory to the moon, how in the hell does it get back to earth when the earth has pissed off at 67,000 miles per hour, leaving the craft on it's way to the moon and also the moon is whizzing around the Earth at a few thousand mile per hour.

Small shielding at each bolt to direct debris or blast outward.  Not hard to to come up with.  What did they actually use for this potential problem?  I don't know.  I'd have to look at the blueprints.

Once that rocket leaves earth, it goes into space,a s we are told.
Once in space, the earth and the moon, go whizzing off at 67,000 mph around the sun, leaving the rocket crying, wondering where it's mammy has gone and yet hasn't the power to catch up, because rockets cannot do 67,000 mph.

Just wait, he'll tell you that we're not moving at 67,000 mph because we should be able to feel it. Then he'll say that once we leave the Earth's atmosphere we shouldn't be travelling at the same speed, or that we'd crash land into the moon or something. So if you want to start on that rebuttal now, I'd take the opportunity.

because the apollo craft and any space craft is 1st and for most travaling at 67,000 mph with the earth and the moon. just like you me and the orange on my table. thats what relative speed means. now on top of this the iss travles at 17,000 mph to orbit the earth and the apollo craft travled at a further 24,791 mph to reach the moon. and no the apolo craft didnt go on a straight course to the moon it went more like this (http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2347/apollo13nominalmissionp.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/819/apollo13nominalmissionp.jpg/)

Uploaded with ImageShack.us (http://imageshack.us)

Just wait, he'll tell you that we're not moving at 67,000 mph because we should be able to feel it. Then he'll say that once we leave the Earth's atmosphere we shouldn't be travelling at the same speed, or that we'd crash land into the moon or something. So if you want to start on that rebuttal now, I'd take the opportunity.
Nice side step.

I don't think so.
Once that rocket leaves earth, it goes into space,a s we are told.
Once in space, the earth and the moon, go whizzing off at 67,000 mph around the sun, leaving the rocket crying, wondering where it's mammy has gone and yet hasn't the power to catch up, because rockets cannot do 67,000 mph.

Have a good old think about it.

Actually, it's even more complicated than that because the Apollo craft isn't traveling at a constant velocity.  The earth's gravitational field is tugging at the spacecraft, slowing it somewhat until it can reach a point where the moon's gravitational field becomes strong enough to start accelerating the craft towards the moon.

So when an object that is traveling the same speed as another object leaves it, it just automatically slams to a dead stop by some unseen force.  Is this what you're saying?

Since you're unable to even fathom something landing on a surface moving 10mph by matching that speed, I'm not surprised.

No but seriously we don't feel like going into heavy mathematics and physics/trajectories because it's a waste of our time when it's 'bullshit' by your standards.

*simple physics concept on earth*
Scepi: Oh yes this makes sense I can understand blah blah
*same exact concept in a vacuum(space)*
Scepi: Oh bullshit magic no work haha you guys fail shills bullshit magic!!

Scepi, it's totally fine to have a first impression of something from a logical standpoint, it's our nature.(Hmmmm the earth SEEMS flat... or ... hmmm that's really fast so I don't think that would work), but it's just that, a first impression or hypothesis.

This is where science comes in. Things are tested and tested and tested and tested until they're disproven. But until that happens they are taken as common knowledge. For example the flat earth model was beginning to be questioned around 2000 years ago, so many tests were conducted and guess what, they found a sphere model works much more logically. We're talking about some of the greatest minds in history who devoted their lives to science and astronomy, as opposed to some random guy on the internet with an obvious lack of knowledge in the basics...

By the time we reached outer space(which would be pretty sad if we couldn't do it since we're a pretty damn advanced species), there was no doubt because, well, right in their face was a giant sphere earth haha.

If none of us actually tested things using concrete evidence(math(doesn't change) and physics(almost never changes)), and went off of instinct like you do, we'd all probably still believe in a flat earth and be in the dark ages...

What are you talking about? a dead stop?,when did I mention that?

Once in space, the earth and the moon, go whizzing off at 67,000 mph around the sun, leaving the rocket crying, wondering where it's mammy has gone and yet hasn't the power to catch up, because rockets cannot do 67,000 mph
So if it doesn't come to a stop only to be left behind, it either has to slow way down, or veer off in a different direction.  If none of those, then I guess it will continue along at the same speed as the Earth/moon system.

Forget the 10 mph, I'm on about the 67,000 mph.
I'm bringing up your comments about the module tipping over landing on a surface traveling 10mph, because if you can't understand how that works, you're probably not going to understand the trajectories and velocities required to get to the moon either.

How in the hell can it still be travelling along with the earth, when it's left earth and left "ORBIT"
Again, does it come to a stop, slow way down, or change direction?  Otherwise it continues along with the Earth and moon, moving away from the earth, and closer to the moon, after which it leaves the moon (also traveling 67k mph, and returns to Earth.  Traveling with the Earth/moon system the whole time.

The moon is in orbit around Earth, so what is it between the two that would physically cause the lunar module to be 'left behind'?

so go to plan B which is attempted ridicule.
Actually I needn't bother.

Unfortunately for you, I don't bow down that easy, as you know.
Indeed, just like when you put up that long epic argument about getting heavier when climbing stairs due to some unknown force in the air.  Quite the fight that one was.

I'm just saying that there is more to calculating a proper trajectory from the earth to the moon than you think.  When you're trying to hit a moving target that's  a quarter of a million miles away, even small changes in velocity can be significant.

Calculating is fine but we don't have 67,000 mph craft, so it doesn't matter which way anything is calculated.
Once the rocket leaves earth, the earth, plus the moon are racing away from it at 67,000 mph, so even if the rocket was calculated to chase the moon, it's like the fat kid (rocket) in a race against the athletes (earth and moon)..he's simply not going to catch them.

It's like jumping out of a car that's going twice or three times faster than you can run. Once you jump out...that car keeps on going, leaving you behind, yet you can try and run after it but the car will be moving away, further and further, as your speed cannot match it's speed.

Yes it does. the moon is even farther away from the earth than the rocket and it doesn't get left behind. Why? Inertia. The entire area enclosed by the moon orbit is like one big system. It all kinda stays together and everything in it is going 67000 mph. Even rockets trying to reach the moon.

Yes it does. the moon is even farther away from the earth than the rocket and it doesn't get left behind. Why? Inertia. The entire area enclosed by the moon orbit is like one big system. It all kinda stays together and everything in it is going 67000 mph. Even rockets trying to reach the moon.

The rocket is on the earth and traveling at 63,000 mph. When it lifts off it is still going at 63,000 mph plus what ever speed it has reached due to take off. How is that hard to understand. Where in the journey from earth to space does it lose the origional 63,000 mph it origionaly had while on earth?

Post by: sceptimatic on February 13, 2013, 03:34:41 AM
So there we have it folks. The moon landings never happened and no man has ever been in space or outside of Earths' atmosphere.
This is the magic that scientists have us believe.

Let's look at all the things they tell us that go against logic, yet anyone disputing it, are ridiculed.
We are to believe that we are spinning on a 1000 mph earth, even though we all know that we would be catapulted off of it, so they counteract that argument with "oh , it's gravity, plus the atmosphere keeping you on the deck and give out ridiculous calculations for it, regardless of not knowing what the hell gravity is and how the atmosphere supposedly grips a solid earth to rotate exactly with it.
Everything that we know about earth was supposedly calculated hundreds and hundreds of years ago and are accepted in the main as being correct, regardless of them simply being hypothesis.

Foucaults' pendulum is supposed to be the one early proof of a rotating earth, where a long plumb bob type line was hung from a church ceiling and put into a swinging motion where it slowly moved in a spiral sort of way, yet Aireys' experiment to prove Earth is stationary and it's the stars and Sun that's moving was rejected. What gives one person precedence over the other in that day?

In the 1960's, we had the Saturn V, which was so successful that it was capable of taking massive payloads, not just into space...this could also achieve a moon landing with the inner equipment it was carrying, such as a command module.
The number of separations needed by exploding bolts after bolts from segments was a feat in itself. Magical you could call it.
Apart from the Saturn V itself separating into a few parts just to get into space, the top then separated, then the command module would go towards the moon, then un-dock a lunar lander, which would go head first towards the moon.
Once near the moon, it would then do a 180 degree turn with it's legs facing the moon and fire it's main engine, then it saunters down to the moon, effortless, although some will argue that Neil Armstrong manually steered it down when he saw they were going to land in a crater.lol

Once on the moon and doing the flag planting and what not, they depart with the top of the lander exploding some bolts to escape the bottom part of the lander.

Once away from the moon, they find the command module and effortlessly dock with it, then climb into it and discard the top part of the lander.

Now it's time to head back to earth, where the command module takes them close to earth, then the back part separates, leaving just a little cone, which then hits the atmosphere of the earth and somehow steers itself down, despite it being just a silly cone, which should have violently flung those cramped Astro liars all over the place.
Once the cone reaches a certain height, regardless of the speed they would be coming in at...parachutes then release and slowly guide them into the sea, where a waiting helicopter and divers are at the ready to winch them up and on board a waiting ship, where they are immediately put into quarantine, whilst the craft they landed in, is left to float all of the little space viruses along the ocean.lol

Anyway, a nice big sturdy big payload carrying monster is replaced by a shuttle that can withstand the vigours the friction of getting out of our atmosphere and back into it, time and time and time again, with the odd tile change and a few burn marks wiped off.
This amazing craft can be bolted onto a large central tank, which is then bolted to 2 large outer solid fuel rocket boosters, which can be re-used.

One thing the space shuttle can't do, is land on the moon, due to weight and fuel I would imagine.
Anyway, this amazing shuttle take about the same time to get to the space station as it does for the Apollo Astro liars to get to the moon. Hmm.  ::)

Anyway, the shuttle is deemed so efficient, it's used for 30 odd years and never ever needed any change to it, to match time ticking away.
A bit like one of us hanging onto our old style ford cortina and refusing to go with the times.

You would think we would have housing estates on the moon by now wouldn't you, with many people owning allotments and what not but yet, all we have to show for it, is a few scattered chunks of scrap laid about that no telescope on earth or space can actually pick up, except as some kind of dot that says that is a lunar lander set of legs.

So there you have it. The 1960's may have looked backward in the technological stakes but as we can see, it pisses all over todays' where conquering space is concerned.  ::)

Yes, it's all magical isn't it. I knew the answer was this, just as it is on earth with everyone going around it all attached to an invisible atmosphere.

This is how Voyager works as well isn't it.
It leaves earth at 67,000 mph , plus the speed it was launched at and then flies through space at 67,000 mph in one direction and 20 odd thousand miles an hour in another direction, all relative to earth of course, regardless of it supposedly being millions of miles into space.

If the Earth is rotating at 1040 mph at the equator and is also orbiting the Sun at 67,000 mph, then once this piece of shit Apollo craft leaves earth on a trajectory to the moon, how in the hell does it get back to earth when the earth has pissed off at 67,000 miles per hour, leaving the craft on it's way to the moon and also the moon is whizzing around the Earth at a few thousand mile per hour.

Actually, it's even more complicated than that because the Apollo craft isn't traveling at a constant velocity.  The earth's gravitational field is tugging at the spacecraft, slowing it somewhat until it can reach a point where the moon's gravitational field becomes strong enough to start accelerating the craft towards the moon.
Sod the gravitational field, this has nothing to do with what I'm talking about and you know it.
I'm just saying that there is more to calculating a proper trajectory from the earth to the moon than you think.  When you're trying to hit a moving target that's  a quarter of a million miles away, even small changes in velocity can be significant.
Calculating is fine but we don't have 67,000 mph craft, so it doesn't matter which way anything is calculated.
Once the rocket leaves earth, the earth, plus the moon are racing away from it at 67,000 mph, so even if the rocket was calculated to chase the moon, it's like the fat kid (rocket) in a race against the athletes (earth and moon)..he's simply not going to catch them.

Speed is relative.  In order to escape the earth's gravitational field, the Apollo craft must reach a speed of around 25,000 mph relative to the earth.  The craft's speed relative to the sun doesn't matter because it isn't trying to escape the sun's gravitational field.

Quote
It's like jumping out of a car that's going twice or three times faster than you can run. Once you jump out...that car keeps on going, leaving you behind, yet you can try and run after it but the car will be moving away, further and further, as your speed cannot match it's speed.

No, that's not it at all.  It's like one airplane using missiles or guns to shoot down another airplane.  The speed of the bullet or missile is added to the speed of the airplane.

Didn't get a answer yet, so again I'll ask because I'm curious; what is it between the Earth and the moon that would physically slow down that rocket?

Jumping out of a car?  The road is the resistance that slows the runner (the air too to a lesser extent).  There's no road in orbit between the Earth and the moon.  What is it that would slow it down?  How far out is your orbit 'limit' anyway?  The moon is in orbit too.

If you want to use cars, here's a better car/road analogy to use.

On a three lane freeway, a car traveling with other cars in the right lane at 70mph.  The driver wants to travel behind a car in the left lane also doing 70mph.  The car alters it's course away from the right lane, crosses the middle lane, and enters the left lane, all the while doing 70mph.

Magic?

I guess it depends how you want to interpret the picture:

unbiased in depth critical analysis
Or
  simply just accepted as fake.
Have you read about the materials used, their purpose, whether those crumpled panels are actually light pliable covers over inner compartments, whether that's 'scotch tape' or some type of industrial extreme temperature range tape, whether it's tin foil or reflective coated plastic, or if the actual crew compartment is underneath all that light-weight sun-blocking material, etc, etc?

5:05 Ceiling beams?  Yes they are.  That's one of the photos of their mockup on Earth for practicing.  The original photos show a lot of the ceiling.  They weren't trying to hide much with those pictures. 

5:30- Nice high quality pictures provided there [sarcasm] and and a quick reference about shadows looking like they're going different directions when viewed from different angles on uneven ground.  What about it?  That's how they should appear.  From above they'll be parallel, but at ground level at an angle, they won't, especially on uneven terrain. 

29:00- Rooster tails from the rover don't act like he thinks they should, and the waves of dust are from air resistance.  The waves are from not having a constant or steady grip on the surface.  The surface is uneven, so the tires are bouncing.  Everytime one digs in, it throws up a rooster tail, hence the 'waves'.  60 feet?  These are small electric motors driving relatively smooth (mild chevrons for traction) tires, not a high-powered gas engine driving paddle tires.  Some of the dust travels in a small arc, some is shot up more vertically instead.  The rover is also in motion, which will reduce the size of the roostertails.  The only real clear roost is the last one, and it looks like a nice clean arc to me.

50:13 Says there's no clouds of dust from the rocket on touchdown.  How does one expect billowing clouds of dust when there's no air?  The dust can be seen spraying straight out though.

46:58- He asks how the footprint could be possible in the soil without moisture.  It's not soil.  Soil is organic.  It's regolith, and it made up of jagid particles from millions of years of meteorite impacts.  The particles aren't rounded smooth.

50:18- Says the shadow changes and that couldn't have happened in seconds like it does.  Yes, it can.  The camera operator increased the exposure setting.  Everything got brighter.  Mystery solved.

6:12 and 56:54-  Armstrong/Aldrin photo (again, a low quality shot of the heavily altered version is used), something about looking down at the faceplate and having to be 8 feet tall.  Look at the original photo and try saying the same thing.  Also says that no camera is visible in the hands of the photographer in the faceplate reflection... yeah, like it's going to be.  The faceplate acts as a wide-angle lense for the reflection, which will make Armstrong(reflected photographer) appear tiny.

57:56- the crater looks to be getting further away and the angle is changing, I don't know why he says it isn't.  He also says they're taking off horizontally.  Does the film actually start from the moment they take off?  Does it occure to him they already did the verticle takeoff, and the footage starts after they began their horizontal direction for orbit.

I might watch the whole thing eventually, but for the little bit I saw, I'm not really impressed.

Explain, with a diagram, why the earth and moon won;t piss off once a rocket leaves earths' atmosphere into space.
Because (as explained already) it's still traveling along with the system.
(http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/50/67k.gif)
Yes, it's magic.
So it's going 67,000 mph and yet moving forward about 5000 mph toward to the moon and yet keep the same orbit as Earth. Yep, in fantasy world it's feasible.
Yep, in the real world it's feasible.  You're unable (or refuse) to grasp it, therefore to you it's magic.

Anyone wanting to find out if the moon landings were real or not, watch this all the way through and make up your mind from it.

Just type this into your search engine and watch the full lot with an open mind.

The reason you're not impressed is because the ones who always bring up these claims in videos on the internet and the like are never educated on the topics they're trying to argue against. Some may believe these people, but there's so much evidence and "common sense" (not a fan of that word combo) available to the general public that this shouldn't be a thing, that people should be able to educate themselves and understand how and why the landings happened. It's a real shame when education fails so many people, in or out of the US.

The education system in the western world is based on teacher tutoring pupils from day blot and those teachers were, "themselves" indoctrinated into it all and so on and so on.
You can only absorb what you are programmed to absord and your life is marked on how you remember what you have absorbed, as in, exam papers.

If your exam paper is solely about moon landings, then you either go with what you are told happened and do your exam on that basis, or you look at evidence of it not happening and go against it.

Exam sheet.

1.Who was the first man to step foot on the moon?
Answer from brainwashed: Neil Armstrong. ( tick)

Answer from sceptic. Nobody landed on the moon. ( cross)

The brainwashed person will naturally go on to university taking science courses, whilst the sceptic learns a trade or ends up in a factory.

The point I'm getting at , is, everyone wants to learn, even those that don't take interest in certain, more complicated subjects that are simply so challenging that the mathematics and equations to get anywhere are at best vague, yet can be copied without really understanding what the hell it all really means.

A scientific person will jump on what I say, in denial or arrogance, to state that he/she , does , indeed understand it all, yet , if you ask them to explain the equations behind E=MC2 or special relativity, relativity, quantum physics etc etc, they then start to vaguely explain it without really knowing what the hell it's really all about.
That's main stream science for yo.
Anyone who simply questions it, is asked to show figures to prove it wrong. It's a classic stumping mechanism, as they know it's impossible to prove wrong, the same as theirs is impossible to prove right.

its easy to prove the moon missions happened we prove you wrong all the time its becoming embarrassing for you. you just dismiss are answers with claims of magic and pretending that the laws of physics don't exist. lol nice job with that. the video on the op shows how faking the moon missions were impossible, but you ignore that don't you. you haven't given us answer to any of the things bought up in the original op have you.

Do you drive a car?  If so, did you start driving in big cities or on an interstate highway right from the beginning or did you practice in a big, empty parking lot first?  Going to the moon is a very difficult and dangerous proposition, so it only makes sense that you would ant to practice quite a lot before you're sure that you're ready to risk your life on the real thing.

So, if they use the lander and all their suits in a studio of sand or cement, this will stand them in good stead for the moon mission in supposed zero atmosphere and supposed one sixth gravity will it?

It's like your mother learning you to walk about by throwing you into a swimming pool.

Director: Ok Neil, we've set up the exact moon conditions in this studio, except the atmosphere and one sixth gravity, so have a walk about will you.

Neil: Ermmm? what for Sir, what good will this do us?

Director: Nothing really but it'll show you how crap and desolate and grey, dark and murky the moon will be to you.

Neil: Great stuff, I don't feel like going now, can we just fake it.

Director: I'll decide that Neil, when the time comes.

Yeah, I'm sure they went to the moon.   ::)

Wires and slowed down video and a few little Kubrick tricks, that's all. Nothing too difficult for a man that brought out Capricorn 1  a few years later, which I'm sure was ready in 1969.

They didn't have the technology.  ;D

did you not watch the OP video. he perfectly demonstrates how we didn't have the tech create such a long piece of fottage slowed down. also we have showed you that infact when fottage is speeded back up then the fottage looks rediculious and does not look like a person moving at normal speed. unless you are going to invent a super secret technology we had back then, which im sure you will in your next post

They even done a hammer and feather test to prove they were on the moon and it was replicated on earth easily.

There is no logical reason anyway for Astro liars to be acting all slow on the moon. If anything they should have been falling over or skipping about faster than normal due to no air resistance anyway.
They slowed them down because they mistakenly believed that, the moon would make them sort of buoyant as if in water.
Naturally they had to go with that from then on because everyone had seen it all.

to fake it they would have had to have used magnetic disc recorders. they could only record 30 seconds at a time. or if you want to slow the fottage down by 50% then one minuet. so how did they record 143 minuets slow mo or in other words 71.5 minuets at full speed. have you not seen this video? watch it. he explains it all more tactfully than i can. specificly from 4.39 http://www.geek.com/articles/geek-pick/why-it-was-impossible-to-fake-the-1969-moon-landing-20130126/ (http://www.geek.com/articles/geek-pick/why-it-was-impossible-to-fake-the-1969-moon-landing-20130126/)

no splice marks, base scratches, emulation flakes, dust particles gate weave no film grane etc etc etc. all of this would have been evident every where over 5300 feet of film. especially back then. you go to any cinema today and watch a modern movie on 35 mill and its everywhere. yet not one single one of the above appear anywhere in the original footage. of any of the moon landings.
Nor did they appear in any of the 2001 a space odyssey. So what's your point here?

didnt they? ??? they appear in every film shown on celluloid. even today with all our modern technology. every 20 minuets or so you will see the splice marks. almost always at a scene change to help hide the slight jump in the film. they have to be because all film comes in small reals. no way around it. unless you can invent a way of fitting 5300 feet of film in one film canister. every thing i posted shows up on all film even today. no exception im afraid. its not a technology thing its just the nature of the medium used to show film.  so i think you will find you can see them in 2001 space odyssey. so sorry to let you down

Well show me this continuous footage that has no jumps in it then and if I don;t see any jumps or anything, I'll apologise for believing the moon landings were faked and I will never ever question anything, ever again as a conspiracy.

Ok, over to you. Show me this continuous footage of the moon landing and I'll go over it. cheers.

Mans so called greatest achievement was destroyed and people wonder why the moon landings get questioned lol.
They manage to keep hold of scripts and artefacts from centuries ago, never losing them, yet footage of mans greatest achievement , destroyed like cleaning out a loft and burning the rubbish.

Poppycock.

You say, why didn't they just destroy them all?
The answer is quite simple...They learned from their mistakes the first time and righted a lot of wrongs, plus, it would have looked even more fishy, had they destroyed yet more later landing footage, don't you think?
So in effect, you have just tried to stump me on continuous footage that does not exist and yet this is proof why they did go???

Strange how any photos I find are all edited and yet all the ones you want me to see are not. Come on man, what are you gaining from all of this.
Any sane person can see the moon landings are a load of bull.It's so amateur, it's not funny, yet in the good old 60's, that amateur footage was deemed state of the art as nobody, or very few would have expected anything clear cut as far as footage goes, when you consider that most people had grainy black and white TV's anyway and no video recorders to play anything back. It was a one hit wonder, with no time to pick at anything.
What they didn't bank on, was technology allowing people to scrutinise the footage, which is the reason why a lot of stuff was mislaid or destroyed, accidentally of course. ::)
When I was a kid, I'd watch Frankenstein movies and be scared, yet I see them now and laugh at how amateurish they looked and how silly the make up department dolled up the monster, yet at the time it was scary and up to the minute movie time, which we looked forward to.

We are gullible people and we just don't realise how gullible we are.
As kids we would watch thunderbirds (the puppet ones) and jump up when we saw the strings, as if we were trying to convince ourselves the puppets were real at first, only for us to find that they are operated by strings.

It's a bit like the moon landing footage. We see it for what it is, yet some people can't see the strings, even though they are quite evident.

The lunar lander "legs" must be made of metal right, of some description. Why would they need to wrap them in turkey foil?

5:05 Ceiling beams?  Yes they are.  That's one of the photos of their mockup on Earth for practicing.  The original photos show a lot of the ceiling.  They weren't trying to hide much with those pictures. 


It's strange how the mock ups mimic those so called Astro liars on the moon "exactly" isn't it.
It doesn't mimic the moon exactly.  Other than a slightly darkened setting, EMU suits, and some grey colored gravel, they weren't really trying to fake anything in these pictures.  Ceiling beams and overhead lights are visible, there's none of the reflective or shielding covers on the module, and there are obviously a couple light sources.

Here's a couple pictures from that mockup practice session.   The picture from the video is a cropped (also darker and grainier looking) picture from this set.

Practice what?
What can you practice on a stage set except faking the landings?
Setting up and using all the equipment.  They do this in the EMUs so they'll be used to the limited dexterity and movement regardless of the gravity difference.

It's an alloy coated plastic, not tin foil. 

The first thing that comes to mind for insulating it would be to control metal expansion.  Maybe we should actually research it though.

Why do you think vacuum would affect the adhesiveness of tape?  I have metal based tape that is highly adhesive.  There are probably a lot of specialized industrial tapes out there.  What type of tape do you think they used?

Pages 3-11.  Pretty much the same stuff that is going to come up by someone looking at a picture and assuming it's fake, and everything that is going to be explained by others actually doing an in-depth analysis and research.

I wasn't thinking of the vacuum itself on the tape, more like the 250 degree heat melting the adhesive on it or the 250 degree cold actually rendering it a brittle waste of time.

There is also a problem with cold welding in the vacuum of space, so I wonder how they got around that.

well this is probably where the gold comes into play. and unless you can find out what the material is made of then how can you claim that it should be brittle or melt? 

and the reason you can see it is because they had no need to hide it because they are not hiding anything. ??? quite simple realy.

You do not need physics to see something for what it is, amateurish bull shit. There's only observation of everything needed.
The trouble with your likes is, you live by numbers and will not accept anything else told to you, unless it has some kind of numbers to back it up, so here goes.

The moon landings were a big fake, 6x6=36+12=48. divided by 12=4+2=6 moon landing missions were faked.

I just thought I'd use a bit of maths as you and others clearly live by it, even trying to explain why they landed on the moon with it, when all you need to do is look at the footage and think of the impossibility of the crafts and obstacles, yet you hang onto it like a child grabbing his mothers dress because you don't want your space dream to come crashing down, making you feel a fool for being duped all these years.
Or..
You are being paid to simple debunk anyone who questions these landings.
Or..
You are doing it for free and you simply just want to argue the case, even though you probably are 50/50 and are trying to get some clarification yourself that you deem as concrete.

Post by: sceptimatic on February 18, 2013, 05:38:57 AM
I argued a while back about rockets not being able to work in space and gave my reasons, as being.
If space is a vacuum, then a rocket has nothing to push against.

Ok , it was counteracted with, ' the fuel pushed "against" the rocket.'

Fair enough then but when Apollo was supposedly descending to the moon, good old Neil realised they were heading for a crater, so he steered the piece of shit cardboard and turkey foil lander, away from it, using the "RETRO THRUSTERS", which steered the craft over the crater to a smooth landing.

So, ok, let's go with the fuel pushing the rocket, or as some explain, imagine it spitting out cannon balls really fast and getting a kick each time.  ::)

So the lander is ascending, at first vertically and now it also has to move horizontally so, one side of the thrusters are needed, yet in reality, this should simply tip over the craft.

Picture a Catherine wheel nailed to a fence and lighting it, it spins right?
There is no atmosphere on the moon, so they say...so if that's the case, the minute they used the side retro thruster, the craft will immediately push the top over with no air to stop it, it will simply be in motion and just slowly spin, unless they counteracted it, "immediately" with a squirt of the opposite retro thruster, which would mean, it would be pointless using them in the first place.

I'll do one of my amazing drawings of the lunar lander in stunning detail to show you what I mean.

well considering you are talking about balance then it is everything we are talking about. shows how much you know. to begin with the center of gravity is very very low down because all fuel supplies and engines are right neat the bottom of the craft which means the thrusters which are not at adsactly the center of gravity but above it would not cause the craft to flip as you say.

If those little thrusters can push a craft sideways, they can push it over too, so don't go on about centre of gravity.
The reality is, in no atmosphere, like we are told the moon has, that craft would be unbalanced the second either side thruster was operated, unless the opposite thruster was operated, which would mean it being pointless having them.

trust me center of gravity matters. now onward. remember that it has thrusters on all sides that fire on all axis that can compensate for any instabilities in the craft. remember that the directional thrusters dont work in isolation but in combination. watch this video. the 1st few seconds show adsactly how they work and why your theiry is wrong.

I argued a while back about rockets not being able to work in space and gave my reasons, as being.
If space is a vacuum, then a rocket has nothing to push against.

The rocket doesn't push against anything. The rocket moves forward due to the conservation of momentum. A relatively small amount of fuel is burnt and ejected out of the back of the rocket at high speed. For the momentum to be conserved the rocket itself moves forward. The backward momentum of the ejected gases is cancelled by the forward momentum of the rocket.

What is impossible? Is it impossible for a mechanical object to eject gases in a vacuum? And if those gases are ejected does it not change the momentum of those gases? The mechanical object and the ejected gases form one system and for this system to maintain its momentum the object must move in the opposite direction to the ejected gases.

It has nothing to do with vacuums or the presence of an atmosphere. It has to do with the properties of the rocket and its ejected gases. It has to do with Newton's second law.

Google 'The Rocket Equation' for an explanation of how it works. The derivation of the rocket equation is particularly bonny.

[/quote] I don't know what is in space. I can guess but that's all it is "a guess."

The fact that I don't believe the earth rotates is first and foremost why space travel, "up to now" is impossible, yet we go down a dark dirty road here.

My argument is about what we have been told about space and what it is and how the crafts have entered it and orbited this earth, etc etc.

We are told that space is a vacuum and TV pictures show us Astro liars in that vacuum, space walking and on the moon and what not.
Now basing my argument against that and the fact that they say space is 220 miles up or something, then I say we do not and never have had the craft to escape the earth.
The speed needed to escape the earth is such that 5 F1 rocket engines could not attain 25,000 mph under a rocket of such proportions as we are told the Saturn V was.

I'm not interested in equations and this marries up with that so it's true baloney, because as I've stated before, it's natural they are not going to just say, ' oh this works'... for no reason. They have to back it up with figures and they do, yet it fools many people because many people hang onto the amazement of the science and achievements unconditionally.
I don't and I don't give a rats arse who tries to pull me down with figures. I just simply have an opinion that differs from the masses.

I follow my own logic and mind, until someone can actually stump me on something where I actually sit back and question my own thoughts. Once that happens, I'm open for change.

The flat earth theory has given me massive food for thought, when I was swinging more to the stationary centralised earth with everything else going around us, so the flat earth theory (although there are a few) has at least made me try and see it in a different light, than the two I only believed were possible at one stage, which was the rotating and stationary sphere.

Ridicule no matter how tame or how many attempt it with me, will only be met by ignorance and a tit for tat.
Frustration will only be met by behind screen smirks.
Legitimate debunking and arguments with a little bit of banter, will be met by my honesty and seriousness in debating or conversation and it's no more simpler than that.

How does it push air out of the way? There is more air outside of the balloon than inside. Therefore the air outside of the balloon has a greater mass than the air inside. So a small mass can push aside a large mass? Interesting logic.

How does it push air out of the way? There is more air outside of the balloon than inside. Therefore the air outside of the balloon has a greater mass than the air inside. So a small mass can push aside a large mass? Interesting logic.
Air pressure due to the elasticity of the balloon.

The ballon pushes air out of the way. That still doesn't explain why the baloon moves.

I already explained that the thrusters can't work against each other or you go nowhere, remember? It's counter productive.
It's like two equal men playing the tug of war. No one goes anywhere.
They're not working opposite eachother, they working in two separate directions.

One thruster is pushing horizontally (the one that would put it into a roll).  The other thruster is on the opposite side and pushes upward, which cancels the roll. 

Module moves horizontally and remains level.

Your tug of war analogy is the same as if there were a big box on rollers and two equal men were pushing at the opposite sides.  They don't move.

Move one man to the side instead and have them push on it.  Now it's moving.

I could be incorrect on this, but who's to say the rockets fired at full thrust at all times? More than likely each rocket was capable of firing at half thrust or anywhere else in between off and full, thus allowing the control movement speed and the like.

I brought this point up before but Sceptimatic ignored it after he couldn't answer it but here it is:

If an atmosphere is needed for rockets to work then why is there a slight increase in thrust and efficiency the higher up the rocket is? Obviously there is less air up there so by your logic it should work the opposite.
How do you know they have more efficiency the higher up they go?

It is observed in vacuum chambers as well as on the flight up. There may even be some math that predicted it but honestly idk.

Could you please answer the question now?

That's true. When rockets take off it is most efficient to go the speed of terminal velocity, so if they are going too fast they lower the thrust so that they don't waste fuel.

I still don't understand why the baloon moves. Once the air has left the baloon why should it affect the baloon? Why doesn't the expelled air simply mingle with the ambient air? Or push the ambient air out of the way? Why should a push in one direction produce movement in the opposite direction? Newton had an explanation for this but we aren't allowed to use Newton.

Get a bike pump and inflate a bike tyre. What you will notice is, the more you compress the air in that tyre, the more resistance it has against you trying to pump it right?

Now imagine taking out the valve, then trying to pump from there, you will find that the air in the tyre is pushing against you as you are trying to push against it.

If you left go of the pump, the handle would shoot upwards. It's like acting against a spring, only the spring is the air you compressed.
Ok now think of the balloon.

If you were to let out the air slowly, it would simply mix into the atmosphere, yet let it out at speed, it will force it's air into the atmosphere and the atmosphere can't separate fast enough, so it creates a sort of resistance, like a spring to start with, as in the diagram, until the density cannot be pushed against anymore, so it sort of acts like a push back on the air hitting it and this happens all the way up but only weaker and weaker as the balloon loses pressure, then it becomes weak, like blowing gently through someones hair and so the balloon flops to the ground.

Rockets work slightly different.

You're still missing my point. Why should the movement of air in one direction produce movement in the balloon in the opposite direction. Remember, as the air is leaving the ballon it is travelling away from the balloon.

If I were to suspend an uninflated balloon on a piece of string and then blow on it the balloon would move in the direction of my breath. If I were to take this same suspended balloon and turn the hose of a vacuum cleaner on it it would move in the direction of the suction.

You haven't given this enough thought.

That's a good point. I tried explaining it to him earlier I think but he wouldn't listen:

The exhaust doesn't need to push off of anything. If you think about it, the exhaust is no longer in contact with the rocketship. This means that if it pushes off of anything it will only affect itself and what it pushes off of. So really what happens to the exhaust after it leaves the rocket doesn't do anything to the rocket.

If you use heavy enough objects. air resistance wont factor as much and you will see both objects hit the ground at the same time. So you don't need a vacuum to try it.

Sceptimatic: You see to be very misinformed and have an odd way of looking at things. I will try to explain in a way where you can test this out for yourself.

Imagine you are on a small raft on some water, your feet are fixed to the raft, and you are carrying a medicine ball (or some other kind of reasonable weight).

There are no other forces, no waves, no wind etc. acting upon you. So there are no other influences.

You now hurl the medicine burl as hard as you can, to the left for example.

Surely you can understand as you do this you, on your raft, will move to the right. This occurs because of the conservation of momentum.


From what I can see, you seem to think that hurling the ball to the left would 'push' against the air and that is why you move. This is incorrect simply because of what would happen if you did the following:

The scenario is the same as above, but this time instead of the medicine ball (or other weight), you have a circular shape - the shape corresponds to the same shape as the medicine ball.

If you were to quickly thrust this flat shape out to the left you will not move to the right in anyway near the same manner as the above scenario. This is because the force exerted by 'pushing' against the air is negligible compared to the force exerted by conservation momentum.

Of course conservation momentum is determined by how fast you throw the ball. If you just give it a little throw you will not move as far in the opposite direction as if you were to hurl it. Momentum is defined as mass times speed, so it is determined by how heavy the thing you're throwing is, and how fast you throw it. If you try this with a tennis ball it wouldn't work because a tennis ball just isn't heavy enough.

This is the principle of how rockets work, and can work in a vacuum.

No, not quite like that. The best way to think of it, is like putting a big pressure washer against a trampoline and watching it push against the trampoline, where it will push it down a little, yet the trampoline will resist it.
With rockets spewing hot fuel out at pressure, it would be like the hot air expanding the air, or as in the trampoline, the impression becomes wider and deeper creating more mass of air.

You need even more help than I thought.

Of course a rocket doesn't throw out medicine balls. I produced an example to help better explain the forces at work for you to understand, seeing as you seem to have no idea how rocket propulsion works.

In the case of a rocket it is the ejection of fuel that causes the change of momentum. The fuel is ignited such that the internal pressure increases and it throws itself out.

This equates to a change in momentum which must be counteracted by the rocket, and so the rocket moves in the opposite direction to the ejected fuel. The air outside has nothing to do with it.

Post by: SuperHater7810 on February 19, 2013, 06:53:42 AM
Sceptimatic why dont you consider this.
This is pretty much the opposite of what you are suggesting. As instead of hot light air being shot into a cooler denser atmosphere. You have water as you know is very cold and very dense being expelled into air.
By your logic the water should just cut threw the air and the fire fighters shouldn't feel any back pressure. Same goes for water rockets.

So is the cold air pushing the hot air into the rocket and creating thrust?
No, not quite like that. The best way to think of it, is like putting a big pressure washer against a trampoline and watching it push against the trampoline, where it will push it down a little, yet the trampoline will resist it.
With rockets spewing hot fuel out at pressure, it would be like the hot air expanding the air, or as in the trampoline, the impression becomes wider and deeper creating more mass of air.

But in no way are you describing a method that would create thrust, merely resistance.
If it was all so easy to explain, there would be no discussion would they.

When will you understand that it has noting to do with the exhaust pushing against. some thing. It's just the mass accelerating out the back. That's why when rockets launch they become more efficient the higher they get.
They become more efficient because they are getting lighter and lighter as their fuel expends.

Post by: sceptimatic on February 19, 2013, 06:57:24 AM
Sceptimatic: You see to be very misinformed and have an odd way of looking at things. I will try to explain in a way where you can test this out for yourself.

Imagine you are on a small raft on some water, your feet are fixed to the raft, and you are carrying a medicine ball (or some other kind of reasonable weight).

There are no other forces, no waves, no wind etc. acting upon you. So there are no other influences.

You now hurl the medicine burl as hard as you can, to the left for example.

Surely you can understand as you do this you, on your raft, will move to the right. This occurs because of the conservation of momentum.


From what I can see, you seem to think that hurling the ball to the left would 'push' against the air and that is why you move. This is incorrect simply because of what would happen if you did the following:

The scenario is the same as above, but this time instead of the medicine ball (or other weight), you have a circular shape - the shape corresponds to the same shape as the medicine ball.

If you were to quickly thrust this flat shape out to the left you will not move to the right in anyway near the same manner as the above scenario. This is because the force exerted by 'pushing' against the air is negligible compared to the force exerted by conservation momentum.

Of course conservation momentum is determined by how fast you throw the ball. If you just give it a little throw you will not move as far in the opposite direction as if you were to hurl it. Momentum is defined as mass times speed, so it is determined by how heavy the thing you're throwing is, and how fast you throw it. If you try this with a tennis ball it wouldn't work because a tennis ball just isn't heavy enough.

This is the principle of how rockets work, and can work in a vacuum.
To make it plain and simple. Rockets do not throw out medicine balls, they simply "burn" their fuel in a continuous burn. It doesn't splutter out like someone spitting out orange pips.

You need even more help than I thought.

Of course a rocket doesn't throw out medicine balls. I produced an example to help better explain the forces at work for you to understand, seeing as you seem to have no idea how rocket propulsion works.

In the case of a rocket it is the ejection of fuel that causes the change of momentum. The fuel is ignited such that the internal pressure increases and it throws itself out.

This equates to a change in momentum which must be counteracted by the rocket, and so the rocket moves in the opposite direction to the ejected fuel. The air outside has nothing to do with it.
You believe that if you want to.

I don't know how to quote pictures, but sceptimatic, answer this:
when the hot air "expands", you say the cold air push back against it. The key point here is that the cold air push against the hot air, not the rocket. In order for this scheme to work, the hot air would have to push against the rocket after getting pushed by the cold air. But we do see a column of hot air going downwards. How?
Also, about the firemen picture, what you wrote was completely irrelevant.

Well if you cannot understand the point I made in my example, something you can test out yourself with no resources then maybe you should try giving it a go experimentally.

If you would like, I can explain with numbers and simple formula to explain how conservation of momentum allows a rocket to lift off and fly. I'll only do this if you actually care about understanding and learning more and aren't just trying to troll everyone.

look at your discussion on the ISS for example. you have these ideas about it, yet you wont even observe it for yourself. this is why you are called names round here and probably on other forums you chat on. your ideas wouldnt be so stupid if you actually had some leg work behind them to prove your point.

I 100% stand by my stance on them not working in the vacuum of space as we are told space is.Which I don't believe it is what we are told to be honest.

I happen to think getting out of our atmosphere would be impossible and a shit load scarier than just breaking through an atmosphere into a vacuum.

The energy is being produced inside the engine, what's so hard to understand?  >:(
If I want to blow torch your hair and set it alight, I can light my blow torch and be sure that the energy needed to do that will be blowing at your hair, only ignited. It won't be travelling back up inside the nozzle.

If an atmosphere is needed for rockets to work then why is there a slight increase in thrust and efficiency the higher up the rocket is? Obviously there is less air up there so by your logic it should work the opposite.

Could you please answer the question now?

Seriously Sceptimatic why do rockets work like this in real life?

A blowtorch isn't a rocket engine. (http://bleachasylum.com/images/smilies/facepalm2.gif) It's not designed for propulsion.

I sincerely doubt that very much. E=MC2 is a complete load of old cobblers as far as I'm concerned. It's just a stupendously baffling equation made to make people believe in magic. It's so complex that top scientists cannot even work the equation out because it's so brain busting.

...

You were wrong the first time you made this claim and you are wrong again. If they can't work out the equation then why does the equation exist? Your ignorance does not count as evidence for your arguments.

Ok , the ball is in your court Sir.
Without even looking at wikipedia. Here you go.
The full equation is something like E^2=(MC^2)^2+(PC^2)^2
Where
E is energy
M is mass
C is the speed of light
P is momentum

So the equation says the total energy is equal to rest-mass energy, MC^2, plus energy from momentum. Momentum of course being mass times velocity. So when the object has no velocity you can see how that term is zero and you are left with just rest-mass energy.

To use the equation for objects that have no mass, as in light photons it gets a bit tricky. For we all know light has energy but no mass. To use the equation you set rest-mass energy to zero and say that light has momentum(which can be seen in experiments) and then you can see how the equation works.

These two things I said are only true for relativistic speeds. E=MC^2 can also have the gamma term.
Gamma is 1 over the square root of velocity square over speed of light squared. This is used here on the website alot to make sure that objects don't accelerate to a velocity which is faster than the speed of light.     

Satisfied?

To not change the post I will post this. I think my definition of gamma is wrong.  The real equation is something like 1 over the square root of 1 minus velocity square of speed of light squared.

Did you try using a heavier object than the base ball to see what would happen?
If you use heavy enough objects. air resistance wont factor as much and you will see both objects hit the ground at the same time. So you don't need a vacuum to try it.

there were some social consequences to dropping heavier and heavier articles down the public stairwell.

but all that would do--based on observation alone, and leaving out air resistance-- would prove that two heavy objects are more similar to each other than either might be to light objects.

Ok, as you have easily guessed, I am not a rocket scientist or engineer and yet I' appear to be arrogantly dismissing it.
The truth is, I'm not arrogantly dismissing anything to do with the actual rocketry as such, only in how they portray it to work in a vacuum.
That's all I'm interested in to be honest.
Let's simply take a solid fuel rocket or the hypergolic so called moon lander fuel. We are told, it ignites and that's that, meaning, once the mixtures meet and ignite, they simply burn and cannot be throttled or anything.
A solid rocket booster simply burns it's fuel.
In a vacuum as we are told space is, burning would not occur anyway for starters because any oxygen in the fuel would be gobbled up into space and the fuel would simply be gobbled up as fast as it came out.

The best way to describe it which people scoff at, is the good old thermos flask.
The only difference is, you have to look at it in an opposite effect as to space to understand what a vacuum would do.

Picture the flask in a room and you knock off the bottom glass welded tip. The thermos immediately is filled with air because that vacuum is just waiting to gobble up enough air to fill it, or if people want to be picky, the air is just waiting to attack the hole in the thermos. Either way, it's done in a fraction of a second.

Now imagine space being the thermos and the rocket being the room. Once that nozzle is opened on the rocket, the very second the valves are open, it will be swallowed up immediately, rendering the rocket useless.

The truth is, I'm not arrogantly dismissing anything to do with the actual rocketry as such, only in how they portray it to work in a vacuum.
That's all I'm interested in to be honest.
Let's simply take a solid fuel rocket or the hypergolic so called moon lander fuel. We are told, it ignites and that's that, meaning, once the mixtures meet and ignite, they simply burn and cannot be throttled or anything.
A solid rocket booster simply burns it's fuel.
In a vacuum as we are told space is, burning would not occur anyway for starters because any oxygen in the fuel would be gobbled up into space and the fuel would simply be gobbled up as fast as it came out.

The best way to describe it which people scoff at, is the good old thermos flask.
The only difference is, you have to look at it in an opposite effect as to space to understand what a vacuum would do.

Picture the flask in a room and you knock off the bottom glass welded tip. The thermos immediately is filled with air because that vacuum is just waiting to gobble up enough air to fill it, or if people want to be picky, the air is just waiting to attack the hole in the thermos. Either way, it's done in a fraction of a second.

Now imagine space being the thermos and the rocket being the room. Once that nozzle is opened on the rocket, the very second the valves are open, it will be swallowed up immediately, rendering the rocket useless.

But all of this has nothing to do with the way the motion is created.
Which is why it's just a swings and roundabouts job, which I've been through. Let's just accept that you know rocketry and believe you know exactly how it all works and I know my version, whether you accept it or think I'm barking mad.
The end product is, they don't work in the vacuum of space as we are told space is.

Lol, if you'd left off the last bit it would have been a decent statement :)
That's my belief.

This doesn't prove the video was in a vacuum, but it explains really well how a rocket works, even in a vacuum. Take a second look over it and understand what it's trying to say. Also remember that when something flammable ignites in a closed space it builds pressure. These rockets ignite enough fuel fast enough that even with it escaping out the back there's enough force to push upwards on the rocket. Water-powered model rockets and balloons follow the exact same principle.

Assuming that my previous point made any sense, when it goes higher into the atmosphere the distance between it and Earth increases, which means that gravity, albeit very slowly, will weaken its hold on the rocket. This is part of the factor, but probably not significant for shorter distances as much for larger ones.

What really effects it is that when you move you compress air in front of you. Friction is a smaller factor than the air compression as you move faster and faster. That's why cars lose gas mileage as they travel faster and faster, you've got this air being compressed in front of you and that's slowing you down as it wants to expand back. It's easier to think about it as the air getting thicker around you as you travel faster. The Bugatti Veyron drops to less than 2 mpg when it's going over 200 mph, and drops even less as it approaches its record speed of roughly 267 mph. The same happens with a rocket as it goes upward. The advantage to a rocket is that as it travels higher and higher, it gets lighter from burning off fuel and has a thinner atmosphere to compress less air around it.

If you sat on a skate board on top of a bottle of compressed air, with the nozzle behind you and opened the nozzle. Why does it propel you forward?
There's pressure inside the bottle pushing in all directions against the inside of it.

Opening the nozzle at the back creates a spot inside the bottle where pressure can't push against the inside of the bottle, but instead escapes.  Meanwhile at the front of the bottle, pressure is still pressing in that direction, so the bottle is pushed in that direction.

Thus propelling me forward.

Lets just dilute the argument.

For a rocket to work, the expended fuel has to be released from the rear if it is to be propelled forward right?
In space, the fuel will be expended into the vacuum we are told space is.
A vacuum is devoid of all matter but one thing a vacuum enjoys, is accepting any matter within it and it will be gobbled up, so any pressure you say is acting inside your tank would be rendered useless.

This would be the case if the fuel wasn't burned and expanded to create enough pressure to move it forward. The pressure is created whether you're in a vacuum or not because if it didn't build then the rocket wouldn't move anyway, even on Earth.

But only so much can escape at a time, it doesn't matter how quickly it disperses into space because the pressure is being maintained at a rate faster than the pressure is released.. If I were to fully open a freshly filled air tank into space it wouldn't instantly be empty; it takes time for the air molecules to escape through a small opening in the tank. The same is true for rockets.

Imagine being really deep under the sea in your little submarine and your little rust spot pops open allowing the water in.
The water will force it's way n that fast, that your sub will most likely be ripped open and filled in seconds, if that.
Now think of it the opposite way round and the vacuum is trying to take that air from your fuel in your rocket. Picture it like a big hand grabbing the fuel and yanking it out.
If it can't get it, it will pull your ship apart.

It's only SORT OF like that, but not exactly so. While in the vacuum of space there is no pressure forcing in on anything, so if any pressure exists within a closed object there's more force going out than pushing in. The vacuum itself isn't trying to pull the gasses from the rocket so much as the gasses are just spreading out in an attempt to bring equilibrium to the emptiness. To prevent the rocket from blowing open they reinforce everything, kind of like how a submarine is reinforced to prevent the extreme pressures the ocean places upon it from bursting open.

The built of pressure and reinforcements required on the rockets would be drastically decreased as it rose up into the sky because it's now lighter and has less atmosphere to cut through, so it's easier to lift. The second and third stage rockets have significantly lower thrust outputs than the first stage rocket because less it needed to keep going.

THe reason the balloon expanded in the vacuum is because its made of rubber wich can stretch.
But luckily the people who make space craft are clever enough to use materials that can stand up to the differences in pressure in the vacuum of space.

The thin aluminium skin of the lunar landers with air pressure inside would have been pulled apart inside a vacuum, there's no two ways about that at all. Even you should accept this.

The balloon in the vacuum chamber should be enough to tell you what would happen. The air would simply want to fill the vacuum and would expand and expand until it got it's wish, then the first weakness of the craft would be popped open releasing any air in the whole craft.

The moon landing could never have happened anyway because there would be no way of communicating through the vacuum of space in truth.

They might have stood a better chance if they had built the craft out of a big flaccid stretchy balloon lol.

The simple fact is, that ship or any light aluminium skinned ship would be rendered useless as soon as it expanded.

Again, you have something durable enough to withstand the forces that the air pressure places upon the inner portions of the rocket and lander. If it were the case that the air pressure were to want to escape "until it got it's wish" [sic] then we would be unable to have air tanks to begin with, and submarines would only be a thing of imagination.

Okay...you HAVE to be trolling. There is no other way you really just brought that up, no way at all. Please, just tell me you're trolling. Unable to communicate in a vacuum? Seriously?

They used this newfangled technology called a radio. Radios transmit data via energy waves within the light spectrum, usually within the range of AM and FM. These forms of energy, as well as the rest of the light spectrum, can travel through a vacuum without any problem, and in fact increases the the speed at which it travels to the full speed of light, instead of traveling at a reduced speed while within our atmosphere. None of this requires an atmosphere to move, unlike sound waves which only work when they have air molecules to vibrate. These air molecules are within the helmets that astronauts wear because without them they would suffocate.

I'm sure you have seen wording on  the thickness of the aluminium skin of the lunar lander as they tell you. So you know it's not strong and you know it would be pulled open at it's weakest point if it went into a vacuum.

These forms of energy, as well as the rest of the light spectrum, can travel through a vacuum without any problem, and in fact increases the the speed at which it travels to the full speed of light, instead of traveling at a reduced speed while within our atmosphere. None of this requires an atmosphere to move, unlike sound waves which only work when they have air molecules to vibrate. These air molecules are within the helmets that astronauts wear because without them they would suffocate.

Aluminium isn't rubber. Aluminium can be pretty strong if you mix it with other stuff to make an alloy.
I'm sure you have seen wording on  the thickness of the aluminium skin of the lunar lander as they tell you. So you know it's not strong and you know it would be pulled open at it's weakest point if it went into a vacuum.

The skin of the fuselage on any jumbo jet is no more than 4mm thick. Its pretty scary if you think about it. But we know they defiantly don't explode when they meet the lower atmospheric pressure high in the air.

The thin aluminium skin of the lunar landers with air pressure inside would have been pulled apart inside a vacuum, there's no two ways about that at all. Even you should accept this.

The balloon in the vacuum chamber should be enough to tell you what would happen. The air would simply want to fill the vacuum and would expand and expand until it got it's wish, then the first weakness of the craft would be popped open releasing any air in the whole craft.

The moon landing could never have happened anyway because there would be no way of communicating through the vacuum of space in truth.

Again, you have something durable enough to withstand the forces that the air pressure places upon the inner portions of the rocket and lander. If it were the case that the air pressure were to want to escape "until it got it's wish" [sic] then we would be unable to have air tanks to begin with, and submarines would only be a thing of imagination.

Alright, I'll de-lurk and say an extrodinary thing. Sceptimatic is at least partially right when it comes to what would happen to an air filled container with a hole in it, in the vacuum of space. The air will rush out as fast it can. Gas will move from a high pressure area to a low pressure area. This is why decompression is so exciting for aircraft at high altitude. (Although it's not quite as exciting as the movies usually make it out to be).

But a space vehicle only has to be strong enough to contain the pressure within itself and even flexible fabrics can be made strong enough to do that. The men who flew the SR-71 wore pressure suits to provide pressure and air at the high altitudes at which the aircraft travelled and they survived, so you don't have to believe in NASA to accept that pressure suits can keep you alive in low pressure zones or even a vacuum.

They work because they push against themselves.

Which I will admit sounds like existential crazy talk. But it's Newton's third law.

Here's a quote from an article that might help some:

Quote
The truth is that the rocket does have something to push against: namely, its own fuel. Let's illustrate with an example you kids can try at home. First, you need to get yourself into some sort of frictionless situation. Wearing ice skates on a slippery ice rink would be good, or maybe your office has a chair that rolls really well on a hard surface. Next, you'll need a medicine ball. You are the rocket and the medicine ball is your fuel. Toss the medicine ball. You'll notice that as you shove the medicine ball forwards, you yourself lurch backwards. Ta-da, the miracle of physics! (If you think this is because the medicine ball pushed on the air, then try the experiment without the medicine ball--just push on the air with your hands, see how far you lurch backwards.)

Simply looking into a table top vacuum chamber will show that a person can still see objects inside. As the vacuum inside becomes greater there is no distortion in the objects. Since visible light can pass though a vacuum it stands that radio waves can as well.

If you sat on a skate board on top of a bottle of compressed air, with the nozzle behind you and opened the nozzle. Why does it propel you forward?
There's pressure inside the bottle pushing in all directions against the inside of it.

Opening the nozzle at the back creates a spot inside the bottle where pressure can't push against the inside of the bottle, but instead escapes.  Meanwhile at the front of the bottle, pressure is still pressing in that direction, so the bottle is pushed in that direction.

Thus propelling me forward.
Lets just dilute the argument.

For a rocket to work, the expended fuel has to be released from the rear if it is to be propelled forward right?
Yes
Quote
In space, the fuel will be expended into the vacuum we are told space is.
Yes
Quote
A vacuum is devoid of all matter but one thing a vacuum enjoys, is accepting any matter within it and it will be gobbled up,
(One way of putting it I guess) Yes
Quote
so any pressure you say is acting inside your tank would be rendered useless.
No.  The pressure is pushing forward against the inside, and the pressure pushing to the rear is not pushing against the inside, it's escaping instead.  Henceforth, the rocket is pushed forward.

The vacuum chamber test is a load of baloney.

You don't need to believe that it creates a complete vacuum. The question was about less air, and I'm sure you accept the chamber has less air. If you don't believe the tests were in a complete vacuum then fine, but there is less air in it and the effects are also observed in flight.

But how else do I know that it works? Because our sun and every other star emits waves along the entire light spectrum, from gamma rays all the way to microwaves and beyond. How do we know they do? We have tested for it, and found it to be true. Are you going to believe me/understand me? No.
This is where it all becomes complicated. You see, I'm arguing against "bogus" science, in that , we are told space, is a vacuum and naturally, we all accept that the "Sun" emits it's light/rays/radiation, from the "vacuum" of space, which I "do not" subscribe to.

Like I said, "It's complicated".

So does that mean you admit that radio transmission through space is possible?

As long as your answering questions maybe you can answer mine.
How can a jet of water (eg: a pressure washer or firefighters hose) create thrust if what you say about newtons third law is true?
It's forced through an uneven or misshaped hose . Try it with the hose on a level ground withe the force coming from ground level and a hose that is true and straight and see if that pushes you back.
Have you tried it? How do you know what would happen.
I think you know very well what would happen.

"If an atmosphere is needed for rockets to work then why is there a slight increase in thrust and efficiency the higher up the rocket is? Obviously there is less air up there so by your logic it should work the opposite."

Please note that this is the 15th time you've side-stepped this question.
I've answered this the best way I can, haven't you been reading?

I said that the higher a rocket goes, the less weight it will be due to less weight in fuel.
I then said to you, how do you know it gains more efficiency in little or no atmosphere...as in, how do you know for certain that it does?

The fuel thing is irrelevant, and I explained that it is observed in flight in in vacuum chamber tests.
Will you answer (as in explain why) this effect happens now?
The vacuum chamber test is a load of baloney. You cannot have a rocket work inside a "chamber" and expect it to be a " vacuum" chamber , because the minute the energy is fed into it, it becomes "not a vacuum chamber" . as in, it just isn't capable of accepting the thrust or burn of that engine...meaning it's bogus...meaning, it's a load of old baloney.

You don't need to believe that it creates a complete vacuum. The question was about less air, and I'm sure you accept the chamber has less air. If you don't believe the tests were in a complete vacuum then fine, but there is less air in it and the effects are also observed in flight.

Now will you answer it?
Your question has more than been answered adequately and you know that.

The thin aluminium skin of the lunar landers with air pressure inside would have been pulled apart inside a vacuum, there's no two ways about that at all. Even you should accept this.

The balloon in the vacuum chamber should be enough to tell you what would happen. The air would simply want to fill the vacuum and would expand and expand until it got it's wish, then the first weakness of the craft would be popped open releasing any air in the whole craft.

The moon landing could never have happened anyway because there would be no way of communicating through the vacuum of space in truth.

Again, you have something durable enough to withstand the forces that the air pressure places upon the inner portions of the rocket and lander. If it were the case that the air pressure were to want to escape "until it got it's wish" [sic] then we would be unable to have air tanks to begin with, and submarines would only be a thing of imagination.

Okay...you HAVE to be trolling. There is no other way you really just brought that up, no way at all. Please, just tell me you're trolling. Unable to communicate in a vacuum? Seriously?

They used this newfangled technology called a radio. Radios transmit data via energy waves within the light spectrum, usually within the range of AM and FM. These forms of energy, as well as the rest of the light spectrum, can travel through a vacuum without any problem, and in fact increases the the speed at which it travels to the full speed of light, instead of traveling at a reduced speed while within our atmosphere. None of this requires an atmosphere to move, unlike sound waves which only work when they have air molecules to vibrate. These air molecules are within the helmets that astronauts wear because without them they would suffocate.
Not with 1960's technology they didn't.

False. Radio transmitters were first used in 1905 by the Japanese Navy. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio#Uses_of_radio)
Air waves.

How do airwaves have anything to do with the transmission of a radio signal, which requires no atmosphere to travel.

sceptic iv just told you that if radio waves cant traveler through a vacuum then at higher altitudes then radio waves would be weaker just like when we put a bell in a vacuum chamber and when we evacuate the air the sound gets quieter. this is not the case so you are wrong. quite simple relay. and this is ignoring the fact that light is the same as radio waves just at different parts of the spectrum.
The simple truth is, in peoples minds it all works, yet in reality it's poppy cock as far as I'm concerned.

Sceptimaniac, I have described a scenario which you can easily try at home (if you have double glazing!)

It isn't limited to mobile phones too. A TV remote control uses infrared to transmit a signal to a tv. Try pointing that through a double glazed window. You'll find it continues to function.

It all goes back to deciding how high up into the atmosphere would render communication pointless and the only way we really know about communication at extreme altitudes, is in fictional man made objects supposedly sitting just above the atmosphere, apparently relaying signals all over the earth.

Look at the Astro liars on the studio moon. They have radio aerials on their backs, basically like a soldier radio operator in world war 2 or whatever and yet they are communicating to each other when in truth, it simply wouldn't work of they were really on the moon in a vacuum we are told it all is.

If you want to know why your thermos stays hot, it's because it has a vacuum gap in between that stops radiated heat transferring through that vacuum gap.

The vacuum is there to prevent heat loss via convection. The silvered surfaces reduce the radiated heat.

The smart part of my brain tells me to not play in this game, but then the mischievous side wants to poke things...

Quote from: sceptimatic
What is the reason that this is not possible?
Because a vacuum holds nothing, it consists of nothing and is devoid of all matter. Nothing in communication could be sent through it to be received at the other side.

There's actually no such thing as a true vacuum in nature, but's let's keep this excercise simple.

Let's say we create a pure vacuum. Poof. Now there's nothing in the chamber we created. But there's no reason we can't put something in the vacuum. You can have a bit of matter surrounded by a vacuum. High school kids do this in experiments to prove that feathers and heavier objects fall at the same rate. Feathers only fall slower when there is air resistence.

Here's a video:

Feather and Ball Bearing Dropped in Vacuum (http://#)

So here we have objects in a vacuum. And... we have objects Moving through a vacuum.

If a ball bearing and a feather can move through a vacuum, there's no reason a radio wave cannot.

The reason you are thinking a radio wave cannot move through a vacuum is that you are thinking of the radio wave as something like a wave made of water. Physical waves need a medium to travel through. Electromagnetic waves (radio waves) do not. A physical wave pushes one bit of matter into the next. Electromagnetic waves "cause fluctuations in the magnetic and electric fields that permeate space-time."

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Difference_between_mechanical_and_electromagnetic_waves (http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Difference_between_mechanical_and_electromagnetic_waves)

Which sounds like voodoo, I know. But think about what would happen if radio waves needed to push matter to travel. Your radio would get pushed across the room everytime you turned it on.

I have no need to. The workings of the thermos were something I remembered from my schooldays or 'brainwashing' as you would call it. If the vacuum does indeed prevent radiated heat there would be no need to silver the surfaces. I must conclude on the simple workings of a common object that heat can radiate across a vacuum.

This may be the difference between you and me. I'm quite happy to accept the expertise of others. The professor of physics knows more about physics than I do. The teacher of biology knows more about biology than I do. The Phd in mathematics knows more about mathematics than I do. I trust in this expertise, even if it is counter-intuitive, until I have hard evidence or sound reasons to disbelieve. I don't consider my intuition or my ignorance to be sufficient for disbelief.

Sceptimatic, you could be cleverer than me but if I have to choose between your opinion or that of an expert I'll choose the expert every time.

Mathsman. I have no qualms with what you go with and your maths and biology and whatever else will be based on sound principles, yet I'm not arguing against that. This is where people get me wrong.

My argument is not the math or equations adding up to whatever they add up to, it about how observations are made in space that start from one point and maths are used to fit everything else into it, which will obviously add up, yet it's all geared to fit in my honest opinion.

Just so you understand where I'm at.
The calculations for Moon, Sun, Saturn, Mars and you name it are based on a rotating earth model and calculating the time it takes whatever to orbit the the Sun and so on, and seasons are calculated into earths rotation, yet only because things are altered for the math to fit, as in, " wait a minute here, this is all fine and it adds up, yet earths seasons cannot fit into this calculation"......."well why don't we tilt the earth so many degrees to fit it in?"...."great idea, now we are getting somewhere."
"Oh but, now someone has mentioned the moon, how do we cater for this"..."hmmm, we shall have it rotating at 10 mph."
And so on and yet this is how it all works. Nobody can prove it wrong but common sense can question it for what it is, which is, 'in my opinion', a complete and utter fabrication.

Hi again Sceptimatic.

I had a look at that video you posted of the Mythbusters, love that show.

Anyway, as Grant explains on the show (at the 5.50 mark) is that this levitation occurs because of the DC voltage ionising the air.

Obviously in a vacuum you cannot ionise the 'air' or anything else for the matter because there is nothing there.


With regards to the double glazing, if familiar with the stuff then I'm sure you are aware of vacuum insulated glazing which DOES have a vacuum between the panes of glass.

And finally, you are able to see through a vacuum (or into one) as shown in the Mythbusters episode, or any other video where a vacuum chamber is made. This is proof that electromagnetic radiation can propagate through vacuum conditions. (If it couldn't then you couldn't see these things as the light (an electromagnetic wave) would not be able to travel to your eyes.

It's a theory, yes and as far as being a successful one, it is only successful because we are force fed that theory as being the absolute truth and ridiculed for daring to have an alternative.
Our own balancing mechanisms in our bodies should be enough to tell us we are not rotating but like I say, all of our own senses are dulled to the point of backwardness in terms of accepting, "child like", anything told to us by someone who has been given letters next to his name who appears to have all the answers.

It's all about how we view things.
I have no problem about seeing through a vacuum , I'm simply saying I don't believe we can communicate through a vacuum in terms of sending voice through to the other side to be discernible as a voice pattern.

According to your theory, less air would result in less thrust (although I'm not sure about efficiency so I won't ask that question anymore), so why is there an increase in thrust according to your theory?

What you showed me is that electromagnetic force cannot ionize air in a vacuum. Which is to be expected since there is no air in a vacuum, by definition. That has nothing to do with whether electromagnetic force itself can move through a vacuum.

If electromagnetic force required the presence of matter to travel, then you would physically feel that force everytime you turned on a radio because it would have to physically push its way to the radio.

The video I showed you, showed objects travelling through a vacuum. If a feather and a ball bearing can travel through a vacuum, then why can't a radio wave? What is your current objection?

You accept that light can traverse a vacuum but don't seem to think other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation can.

I've shown that some double glazing does have a vacuum and that anyone with such double glazing can still use their remote control to control their TV this way (the remote control is obviously sending communication data to the TV via the vacuum in the window.


As the video above demonstrates, not only can be utilize other wavelengths of EM radiation, but we can use light to transmit data too!

Indeed, he as much as admits it it either this thread or the one about stars and light speed. I would try to find the post but there's a lot of them to go through :)

Ok well you never answered my question and just ignored the fact that I said it being a vacuum is irrelevant, in fact I never posted a video. Could you please read this whole quote and then simply answer the question?:
Obviously you agree rockets work at ground level and a 'normal' amount of air, yes? Well, lets say they test it in a vacuum chamber. Now, you say that it won't be a full vacuum and , fine, I somewhat agree with you. However, there is definitely less air in there, yet more thrust and efficiency is produced.

According to your theory, less air would result in less thrust (although I'm not sure about efficiency so I won't ask that question anymore), so why is there an increase in thrust according to your theory?
Increase in thrust according to my theory?

Yes, there is an increase in thrust under those circumstances. I am asking you to explain why, using your theory that rockets need an atmosphere to work.
I've more than explained it. Read back.

No you haven't. It looks like I've stumped you here since you keep avoiding the question. I'm sure if you disagree you'd reply with the answer, but you never have. Could you do that? Just a quick summary?

1. Don't get sound waves and electromagnetic waves mixed up. Sound needs a medium to travel through, because it actually moves through particles in a longitudinal wave (Fun fact, if you hypothetically witnessed a supernova explosion from nearby, it would be completely silent). Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium, they are actual particles, not a 'wave' traveling through particles. A few pages ago shows you have them confused.

2. The very fact that we can see that balloon in the vacuum chamber video posted proves our point.

Black claw. Here's your electromagnetic force.

Skip to about 5.50 onwards with this. Now I know you will come back with, "oh but it's moving air" this is not what I'm showing you. I'm showing you that in a vacuum, the electromagnetic force is useless.

Lifter Anti-Gravity Myth has been BUSTED 1 of 2 (http://#)

What you showed me is that electromagnetic force cannot ionize air in a vacuum. Which is to be expected since there is no air in a vacuum, by definition. That has nothing to do with whether electromagnetic force itself can move through a vacuum.

If electromagnetic force required the presence of matter to travel, then you would physically feel that force everytime you turned on a radio because it would have to physically push its way to the radio.

The video I showed you, showed objects travelling through a vacuum. If a feather and a ball bearing can travel through a vacuum, then why can't a radio wave? What is your current objection?
My objection is, I do not believe waves can be sent through the vacuum of space and re-assembled at the other side as voice.

Ok Sceptimaniac, have a look at this video:

Serial Data Transmission Over LASER (http://#ws)


You accept that light can traverse a vacuum but don't seem to think other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation can.

I've shown that some double glazing does have a vacuum and that anyone with such double glazing can still use their remote control to control their TV this way (the remote control is obviously sending communication data to the TV via the vacuum in the window.


As the video above demonstrates, not only can be utilize other wavelengths of EM radiation, but we can use light to transmit data too!
What has this got to do with voice communication in a vacuum?

Call phones use radio waves just like radios do. They convert the analog signal (your voice) into a digital signal and transmit it to another device that converts the digital signal into an analog signal (your voice). Through space they operate on exactly the same premise.

I'm wondering where the Astro liars talk buttons were when they were talking to each other and also talking to Richard Nixon on his "telephone" at the "White house."

How did the Astro liars manage to talk to earth with those little aerials on their back packs.
Did they have a frequency knob for speaking to earth and for speaking to each other on the moon?

Can anyone explain this?

There may have been buttons, but they didn't need them. The button feature would have been 'always pressed' if you want to think of it like that.
This is Neil Armstrong and we have landed on the moon.OVER.

President: This is the President speaking can you hear me? OVER.

Cackle cackle cackle.

President: This is the President, (talks to his aide), I think Neils' button is stuck on.

Neil Armstrong: This is Neil here, can anyone hear me. OVER.

President: Yes Neil, I can hear you on my phone at the White house for some reason, can you hear me ok. OVER.

Neil Armstrong: Will someone say something, I'm on the moon here and I'm beginning to feel isolated. OVER.

President: (speaks to his aide), the daft buggers left his button pressed on to talk and it must have jammed so he can't hear me speaking back, tell those guys at N'A'S'A to send up a flare.

Was Richard Nixon using light waves to talk to Neil Armstrong on the moon from his phone at the white house?
He used a 2.2Ghz radio wave.  Now answer my questions.
Who did? Nixon on his land line or Neil with his back pack aerial radio ?

Call phones use radio waves just like radios do. They convert the analog signal (your voice) into a digital signal and transmit it to another device that converts the digital signal into an analog signal (your voice). Through space they operate on exactly the same premise.
All the way through the atmosphere to the moon and directly into Neils aerial on his back pack eh?

It would be both.  Do you have a point yet? Did you think up a reason that a radio wave can jump from one atom to another atom but not cross a vacuum?

Don't forget this:
Don't beat around the bush and just answer the freaking question. You know very well that I've explained it is observed in tests in vacuum chambers and on the rockets themselves. Before you reply it's not a true vacuum you should know its in situations with less air in general.
It's not a vacuum.
It cannot be a vacuum, so what am I really seeing?
Before you reply it's not a true vacuum you should know its in situations with less air in general.

Answer the question now.
Start again. Tell me what I am really supposed to be answering. Show me exactly what I'm missing here.

Why is there more thrust produced by a rocket in an environment with less air? According to your theory there should be less thrust produced.

Edit: I've literally wasted 30 posts on this one simple question btw.
Where is this "more" thrust produced. Show me.

That makes no sense. There is more thrust with less air and that's that. It seems to me like you have 2 options:
1. Answer the question or
2. Admit you were wrong about how rockets work.
It's as simple as that, you decide.

The radio wave can do what it likes jumping onto atoms but it won;t be jumping on any through the vacuum of space to Neils back pack aerial.

I do not need to prove there is a difference among gases, liquids, and solids.
Now show evidence on how a radio wave can cross a gap of nothing but can't cross the nothingness of a vacuum.

I can't. Just as you cannot directly prove that Nixon was talking to Armstrong from the White house to the moon.
The same as you cannot prove people on earth can communicate with anything in space.
You also cannot prove what space actually is, yet you can pretend you do by reading books and such that tells you about the vacuum and the light year stars etc.

ok here we go...

lets go back to the image you said was vague;

(http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/z479/squevil/howrocketworks_zps0d9e6655.png)

this explains what is happening. a rocket is not powered directly by the heat coming out. it is propelled by the forces acting on the INSIDE of the rocket.

before you say lalalala this is from rocket scientists, you know the people who study AND make rockets.


so why would it work better in a vacuum?

the main reason would be the lack of friction for a start.
the other point is what i really wanted to raise. you say space (as you are told it is, i know the line...) would suck all the heat out and it wouldnt work. well in actual fact this would only increase the pressure and make it go faster. thats why they work better when there is less air or none at all.

i always thought it was moving because the exhaust, however after seeing that image i thought about it and did some research and well what do ya know. you are wrong about something again!
the picture was never vague, it is quite accurate.

there is no reason as to why they wouldnt work in a vacuum until PROVEN otherwise.


im pretty sure you knew all this anyway, i think most of us just think you say what you say for attention . fair enough it works, just say things people strongly disagree with or know that its a load of shit and you get all the attention you need from strangers on the internet.

Here's a clue. I came on here with the name"sceptimatic"..this should tell you that I'm a very sceptical person.
Every person who comes and posts on this forum is vying to put their point across to gain attention to see what counter arguing or possible like minded thoughts can be of it.

Anyway back to your rocket.
If what you say about the heat not having anything to do with the rockets movement, then why ignite it at all?
If the heat coming out of the back is of no value, then there is no need for ignition at any stage, which as we all know would be silly.

Scepti, I thought of an experiment to help your rocket theory. I need to buy the ballons before I can do it. Previously you said you did the ballon with straw and the balloon did not move. If you tape a paper to the straw that acts as the nozzle exit of a rocket engine. If the straw and balloon move with nozzle attached , it would show.that the movement is generated by the force of the fuel reacting to hitting the nozzle. It will prove that the movement is not from the propellent exiting the vessel only, as your straw experiment did. Both experiments taken together should prove your rocket theory.

 What do you thinkż
Give that a try and tell me what happens with it.

it ignites because increasing the temperature increases the pressure and that makes it move faster.

Several times in throughout 50 some-odd pages of his 'light years' thread.

An inflated balloon with a straw inserted with an empty balloon on the other end that he claims as 'the vacuum' which prevents the inflated balloon from moving when the air is released. 

Scepti claims this the the proof that rockets won't work in space.

Here's a clue. I came on here with the name"sceptimatic"..this should tell you that I'm a very sceptical person.
Every person who comes and posts on this forum is vying to put their point across to gain attention to see what counter arguing or possible like minded thoughts can be of it.

Anyway back to your rocket.
If what you say about the heat not having anything to do with the rockets movement, then why ignite it at all?
If the heat coming out of the back is of no value, then there is no need for ignition at any stage, which as we all know would be silly.

it ignites because increasing the temperature increases the pressure and that makes it move faster.

Furthermore, the heat produced is wasted energy in terms of propulsion.  But you cannot get the kinetic energy out of the rocket system without the heat, so you have to live with some waste.

I await your response to the fact that you said electromagnetic waves can't travel through a vacuum, yet it is quite obvious we can still see things we put in vacuum chambers. Therefore light is reflecting off of them into your eyes, therefore light is travelling through the vacuum, therefore how many times do we have to tell you this.

And again don't get sound waves moving THROUGH particles mixed up with electromagnetic 'waves' which are actual particles that travel. They don't need a medium.

Also answer the rocket question, increased thrust is observed with rockets in vacuum chambers. This is a fact. There is no debate. So now you have to explain it.

ALSO, why don't you just put a cellphone in a vacuum chamber and try to call it to prove us wrong?

Do you remember where your experiment is describefż
Several times in throughout 50 some-odd pages of his 'light years' thread.

An inflated balloon with a straw inserted with an empty balloon on the other end that he claims as 'the vacuum' which prevents the inflated balloon from moving when the air is released. 

Scepti claims this the the proof that rockets won't work in space.

I shouldn't have to point out the problems with this experiment and why it proves nothing.
Many experiments create problems and I'm trying to think of a better way to prove or disprove it, yet the only real clincher would be to go into space and see it for myself, yet because this is unrealistic, I have to figure out a better way.

ok here we go...

lets go back to the image you said was vague;

(http://i1191.photobucket.com/albums/z479/squevil/howrocketworks_zps0d9e6655.png)

this explains what is happening. a rocket is not powered directly by the heat coming out. it is propelled by the forces acting on the INSIDE of the rocket.

before you say lalalala this is from rocket scientists, you know the people who study AND make rockets.


so why would it work better in a vacuum?

the main reason would be the lack of friction for a start.
the other point is what i really wanted to raise. you say space (as you are told it is, i know the line...) would suck all the heat out and it wouldnt work. well in actual fact this would only increase the pressure and make it go faster. thats why they work better when there is less air or none at all.

i always thought it was moving because the exhaust, however after seeing that image i thought about it and did some research and well what do ya know. you are wrong about something again!
the picture was never vague, it is quite accurate.

there is no reason as to why they wouldnt work in a vacuum until PROVEN otherwise.


im pretty sure you knew all this anyway, i think most of us just think you say what you say for attention . fair enough it works, just say things people strongly disagree with or know that its a load of shit and you get all the attention you need from strangers on the internet.

Maybe mimicking the Apollo Astro liars talking to each other on the moon, maybe 10 feet away from each other.

How can this be achieved?
Well the best way I can think of would be to use two mobile phones, one put inside a balloon with air inside it, plus a small recorder inside it , taped to the ear piece of the phone, with the phone on answer mode, then put all that inside a vacuum chamber, then talk through the other phone that is in the room and see if the voice is recorded on the phone inside the vacuum chamber when it is released.

If something like this was done, I'll hold my hands up and accept I'm wrong.
Or
Something similar on these lines.
If I had a vacuum chamber I'd love to do this.

Does any independent person...i.e , someone who is open minded about this, who has the means to perform this experiment?

I don't know. I want to find out How it's possible for Neil Armstrong to receive a signal from earth to the aerial on his back pack to his ear piece and also how he communicated back from that very same back pack.
You obviously cannot answer it, so I'll see if anyone else can.
I'd just like to know how the voice travels through the atmosphere, then into space, then 240,000 supposed miles to the moon to hit Armstrongs back pack radio antenna, and as to how he communicates back from the very same back pack.
What kind of batteries would allow that anyway and what strength would be needed to transmit from a back pack from 240,000 miles.

Radio waves are not "vibrating sound waves." You are still thinking that radio waves are mechanical (physical) waves. They are not.

Until you understand the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves, you will not be able to understand the answer to your question.

1. Electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum whereas mechanical waves do not.
2. The ripples made in a pool of water after a stone is thrown in the middle are an example of mechanical wave. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light and radio signals.
3. Mechanical waves are caused by wave amplitude and not by frequency. Electromagnetic Waves are produced by vibration of the charged particles.
4. While an electromagnetic wave is called just a disturbance, a mechanical wave is considered a periodic disturbance.

This is the experiment I'd like someone to do, if they have the equipment.
This would mimic someone from earth (outside phone in diagram) talking to an Astronaut through space and then through his air pressure suit to his ears.
If the phone inside the air filled balloon hears the "hello" from outside, the tape will then record that"hello", so when the tape is recovered, if it indeed records hello, then I am wrong about communication in space.
If it does not record, then I am correct. Fair enough?

The experiment diagram I've put, is to hopefully get someone to test it out, who have access to a vacuum cylinder, plus the obvious 2 phones and balloon, plus some small recording device.

You'll need something other than a balloon though, i'd suggest a jar or some other solid air tight container (not metal).

I've just realised this is trying to get back to the original thread, I'd almost forgotten what it was about  ;D

I'm probably not the best person to talk to about Apollo pictures, while I believe they went to the moon I can also see a scenario (I don't believe it but can see it as possible) where they got back to earth and when the photo's were developed they went "these photo's are rubbish, Neil you've chopped off Buzz's head here, this one's all blurry and look we told you not to picture the aliens" :)
In this scenario I could see Nasa faking/recreating some of the pictures so I can't really argue against you with the passion you seem to like!

I'll give it a go though, let's see. There's no indication how long the rover had been stood in the one place before the photo was taken but there is evidence given the prints around it that it was a while as some prints are more filled in than fresh ones. From the footage I've seen of the astronauts they kicked up dirt with just about every step and so did the rover, so you have the dust kicked up by the rover settling first and partially filling in the tracks then they get off the rover and walk around a bit doing their thing (especially if they were working on that wheel).

There is also a faint trace of a track behind the wheel, though at best it's inconclusive and little more than a straight line in the dirt.

The photo is conclusive of one thing. That the moon buggy has been placed in it's location, not drove.
So I can conclude that the moon buggy has been brought in, on a flat bed truck maybe and lifted off with the overhead crane in the large hangar that's being used as a studio, then placed on the fake lunar soil.

If they just placed it there then why is the dirt in front of the wheel raised slightly, as though the vehicle had locked it's wheels just before stopping but there is no indication of this behind the wheel? If the vehicle had just been placed there and this was evidence of it sinking into the surface it would be visible infront and behind the wheel.

Saying they are covered by the tracks on top is not "dressing it up" its pretty reasonable actually.  Regardless, this would not be conclusive of a global conspiracy, the jump from missing tire tracks to conspiracy is enormous.

The fact is, there aren't any tyre tracks because they planted the buggy and forgot to make some tracks.

It does not matter if you are convinced.  I likely could not do that unless I sent you to the moon myself.  However, it is a reasonable explanation and still leaves you a long ways off from making a global conspiracy seem likely.

The answer to this is in the text of the page that accompanied the image.

The rover has not yet been driven anywhere, so there will not be any tire tracks. The rover is attached, in a semi folded state, to the side of the landing module and is lowered into position. The Apollo 17 rover fender was damaged immediately after it had been lowered, set up and loaded. The photo shows the first of two repair attempts. The second fix was made after moving away from the deployment position

Details on how the rover is deployed can be found here:
http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo_lrv.html (http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo_lrv.html)

There are numerous videos that can be found on YouTube that show how the rover is deployed both in testing on Earth and during the actual Apollo missions.

So Sceptimatic is right in that the rover was lowered but wrong in that a flatbed was not required.

I'm simply asking a question of how a vibrating sound from one end can be sent through the atmosphere, into space and onto the moon to be heard and also how that back pack sent it back from that small aerial.
I don't profess to know it all, I'm asking questions.
Person on ground talks
sound/voice travels through air to microphone
microphone converts to electrical current to radio set
radio sends out the radio wave (which is the same thing as light, only a much longer wavelenth)
radio wave travels up through atmosphere and through vacuum (just like visible light does) to moon
radio wave hits antenna of radio unit with astronaut
unit converts signal to electrical AC voltage to speaker
speaker emits sound, which travel as sound wave through air inside suit to astronauts ear
sound wave travels through ear canal to eardrum.. (do I need to cover this much of it?)
Astronaut speaks, sound wave travels to microphone
radio unit transmits as radio wave
radio wave travels through vacuum to earth
recieved, converted, and sent to speaker.

to help you out i will post an example that perfectly shows the true size of the space shuttle which i found after 48 seconds of searching the internet.

Fine. Now all I want to see, is some proof of it, like in my diagram.
Then build a vacuum chamber, put a cell phone or walkie talkie in a jar with a recorder (my cell phone requires me pushing a button or opening the phone to answer) and call or key the mic and talk, and then remove the recorder and listen to your voice.

No one here (me anyway) is going to go to the trouble of setting all this up just to see something we know works, yet you refuse to acknowledge how it works.

Light passes through vacuum.  Radio waves are long wavelengths of light.  Put the two together.
If you had studied my diagram, you will see I catered for all of what you said.
Oh and by the way, I don't want you to do it. I will happily do it myself when I get a vacuum chamber or make one.
I was mainly looking for an independent unbiased person to perform the experiment.
Telling me it works, is not proof it works.
We are talking 1969 technology as well.
Since when does the year change how radio waves work? If you're bothered about the level of tech though you should probably modify your experiment and use a transistor radio as the receiver and use the tape recorder to see if it still picks up the station you tune it too. Make sure though that you try the experiment first without the vacuum so that you can rule out any of the apparatus as a cause of interference.

rockets going into orbit don't just go straight up. they perform a role shortly after clearing the launch pad to give them horizontal speed as well as vertical. do you know how launches work? i suggest you do a bit of reaserch you are an awful lot like sceptic lots of opinions and statements but not a shred of evidence or sources. hmmm

and yes the last bit of the last video is a graphical representation of where the rocket is in its flight. your problem being?   ???

Post by: sceptimatic on February 22, 2013, 04:38:38 PM
sceptic you are very selective with your evidence aren't you. for every photo the lunar rover which is bad enough quality usually to show no tyre tracks i can show you a hundred that do show tyre tracks. for your 1 video that makes it hard to make out the size of a rocket i can show you a thousand that show adsactly the size of the rockets.
If all the rover pictures had no tyre tracks, yet footprints, we could easily call the hoax couldn't we, yet out of all the pictures, it's a case of sifting through them to find a discrepancy or a clue and we do in certain ones, including the "odd" one without tyre tracks.
Does it prove the landings didn't happen? No!
What it does do, is add another anomaly to the hundreds already picked upon, regardless of the lame explanations for them.

but you dont take the context of the picture into account. like the picture you posted of the liner rover on the moon with no tracks. its been pointed out that it has just been unpacked from the lander. that's why it has no tyre tracks. yet you still harp on about it as if you have made a massive discovery that no one can explain. well guess what.... we have now move on.

Of course they perform a roll. If they didn't, they wouldn't be able to land in the ocean and also, going straight up, they would be out of fuel quite quickly and fall back to earth for everyone to see.

So what your saying is, they unpacked it from the lander, then carried it to the spot it's at before jumping in a driving away?

Because I don't see no lander next to it.

No, as detailed in the link and numerous other references, when the LRV is unpacked from the Lander Module it is orientated with the front of the rover facing away from the LM. The front of the rover is on the right of the image, the rear (with taped fender) is nearest to the LM. The angle from which your linked image is taken results in the LM being offscreen to the left.

As for carrying the rover, the rover would weigh a mere 35kgs in Lunar gravity. Easy for two fit astronauts to relocate if necessary.

The photo is conclusive of one thing. That the moon buggy has been placed in it's location, not drove.
So I can conclude that the moon buggy has been brought in, on a flat bed truck maybe and lifted off with the overhead crane in the large hangar that's being used as a studio, then placed on the fake lunar soil.

Oh okay. There are some cheese sticks in my fridge that weren't in there earlier, and there are no cheese tracks so they must have been placed there. And by your logic I can conclusively conclude that arctic monkeys dressed in suits dropped them off.

I don't think so but nice try anyway.

He literally agreed with your point(excluding the ridiculous flat-bed truck bit).......... and you disagree with him. Wow.

We are talking 1969 technology as well.

Radio was radio and still is radio. That's like saying the color blue was different in the 60's.

What it does do, is add another anomaly to the hundreds already picked upon, regardless of the lame explanations for them.

Possibly a small one, that could easily be explained with 5 minutes of research I'm too lazy to do. So for the moment, WOWZERS the moon landings were faked! The tracks! Not posssible! Fake!

And i'd like to see an 'anomaly' I couldn't easily debunk with my eyes shut and my feet tied behind my back...

Agreed...but radio strengths for a distance like that might be fine from earth, (even assuming it was possible for it to reach the moon), yet these Astro liars had back packs on with little batteries, transmitting from a silly aerial on their back packs.

Completely faked. To be honest, I think the only thing that is real about the whole missions is the actors who took part in it all.

And i'd like to see an 'anomaly' I couldn't easily debunk with my eyes shut and my feet tied behind my back...
Quote
Every single anomaly can be debunked. Easily debunked. The reason why it can all be easily be debunked is because, anything and everything is simply made up to cover for any anomaly, no matter how stupid or outlandish it is. The biggest factor in you being believed against those that argue against it is simply strength in numbers, which adds no legitimacy to your debunking arguments.
Some people, or should I say, "many" people cannot seem to think for themselves when they have followed a trend all their life and they become stuck on whatever they were brainwashed into.

This might sound harsh, yet it's not meant to be, because being brainwashed happens to us all, every day in some form.
Think like a detective and look over the amount of evidence for and against , from start to finish and you will find that there are more questions than answers, if you dare to look past the lame excuses given for attempted debunking of anomalies.

Nice drawings. Lovely and bright. Well done...

You are basically correct in how I see the launches, except, I would have hidden the Donkey behind a wall or something.
The second drawing is how those at the top revel in making fun of the gullible public.
The annoying part for them is when too many people start to wake up, so they send in the so called experts to debunk those tin foil hat wearing conspiracy nutters, with the likes of Myth busters, that allegedly perform all the experiments that sways the weak minded to actually, once again, believe it really happened.
They forget that they have just witnessed a "TV" experiment.
I wonder if they would be so quick to do the experiments with a live on set audience of 100 sceptics?

You would be surprised.
I knew of a physics university professor who could make even the most staunch intelligent debater start rolling his cap in his hands whilst looking sheepishly down at the floor.

The very same man was fleeced out of Ł15,000 to have a few roof tiles and some chimney stack re-pointing done. A job that was worth a few hundreds pounds, yet he paid.
It was only when his neighbour, a Mr nobody in the grand scheme of things was called upon by the same cowboy builders, who offered to do similar work.
He was sceptical about their appearance and politely refused upon hearing the price quoted.
He decided to call on the professor and inquire about the price he paid. it was only then that the Professor realised he'd been duped.

Gullibility or stupidity?
What am I getting at here?
Well...people can be arrogant in their field of  expertise and can leave like minded people quivering and pissing themselves, yet can be humbled by rough and ready gob shite from a bunch of neanderthal looking cowboy builders with a mouthful of patter.

So you're saying that people who are an expert in one field aren't neccesarily an expert in another unrelated field? That's still hardly a revelation.

im not 100% sure. i have heard of them but i dont think people are really that stupid. are they?
You would be surprised.
I knew of a physics university professor who could make even the most staunch intelligent debater start rolling his cap in his hands whilst looking sheepishly down at the floor.

The very same man was fleeced out of Ł15,000 to have a few roof tiles and some chimney stack re-pointing done. A job that was worth a few hundreds pounds, yet he paid.
It was only when his neighbour, a Mr nobody in the grand scheme of things was called upon by the same cowboy builders, who offered to do similar work.
He was sceptical about their appearance and politely refused upon hearing the price quoted.
He decided to call on the professor and inquire about the price he paid. it was only then that the Professor realised he'd been duped.

Gullibility or stupidity?
What am I getting at here?
Well...people can be arrogant in their field of  expertise and can leave like minded people quivering and pissing themselves, yet can be humbled by rough and ready gob shite from a bunch of neanderthal looking cowboy builders with a mouthful of patter.

If they can do it to him, what can he to the humble quivering students and like minded people he deems below him?

Not sure what you're getting it, are you saying you're a "neanderthal looking cowboy builder with a mouthful of patter?"

Or are you saying that people who are an expert in one field aren't neccesarily an expert in another unrelated field? That's hardly a revelation.

thing is septic you dont have any expertise an anything you talk about. the only thing you are an expert on is where to get the latest conspiracy websites. and you lap it up like a mug.
you story is quite relevant only we have yet to see what you are actually an expert on...

You know, that's strange because I've yet to see what any of you are expert on. Obviously we can all be expert Googlers and such.
I can be an expert in any field you choose. Pick one and ask me any questions on it and I'll answer as soon as I find it on Google.

It's one of the reasons why I take with a pinch of salt as to who is an expert in whatever field.
Pythagoras(Thaggy) would be an expert in every field known to man , yet is he, or is he cheating? What do you think?

I won't ask you about your expertise. If you want to tell me, then that's your business. I prefer to let you accept me for whatever you believe I am.

Fair enough?

although no expert these are my fields.

however my point is that you dont know about the subjects you talk so strongly about. you say this yourself, but then argue all day long that mainstream science is worng. how can you be so sure if you dont even understand the basics about the subjects you argue about?
you mention that what people learn is bullshit, well why do they learn about it then? you do realise that they get an education in those fields and then go to work in those fields. my friend is a master chemist and works with nuclear technology in the uk for a military based company. he works directly for the company. however its safe to say the conspiracy is rather cheap as he isnt making more than a lot of people do. eventually i guess as he gets promoted (ok closer to the truth...  ::) ).

Does your friend work with fissioning Uranium? Thought not.
Anyway, your expertise are mainly in fantasy. I don't mean that in a bad way of course, I'm merely saying that you excel at that.

What you have to ask yourself is, what are we taught in life that is real and what is fantasy?
Of course, you can stand up and shout, " what we are taught is all real, by real tutors."...which is fine...but like I said a while ago, it's all about teachers teaching future teachers all along the line and they teach you and you tell everyone what you know from what you were taught.

Can we be duped as easily as this and to what purpose?
Well, the hard part is trying to distinguish what is real, yet logically, you will soon find out the real stuff because you can physically see it or use it or test it.

Can you be sure of what you cannot test or physically see and can't use? The answer to this is NO.
You can believe you can if you want to but you cannot 100% say it's true until you can do all the things I've mentioned.

Do you believe medicine and pills help the ailments  you are told they help?
Your answer maybe be yes but in reality you cannot be sure, as you know that you can be given a "placebo" to cure an ailment that your doctor believes is in your mind but he will give you the pills to cure it and they can work if it is indeed in your mind, or they don't work and your doctor can now treat you for the real ailment, now that he/she  is sure it isn't just in your mind.

The point is, you will never know, yet you will happily sit in the pub and tell all your friends that your first batch of pills didn't help you and you were given a stronger dose. etc.

Such is life, we have to trust a certain amount and that applies to schools, colleges and universities, where  theory is concerned, because you are committing it to memory to reel back off on your exam date, which gives you licence to work in that field.

If you took astro physics, then you do your exam on what you are taught and you will have to calculate what they tell you to, plus name planets that they tell you are light years away, all seen by a floating telescope in space and by super whizzing probes scooting about the universe.
Do you know they are there? Of course you don't but you are studying it, so it's there.

I think you get my meaning.

The problem with this line of thinking is fairly easy to see.  I will try and illustrate by asking this question: Are you sure that there is a digital signal connecting you to the "Internet"?  You can't see it and the effects of it can only be observed indirectly.  Yet I would assume by your frequent use of this signal for communication that you do not doubt it.  This same trust is applied roundly in everyday life yet you have decided to select certain elements to disbelieve, not based upon any substantial knowledge but upon your intuition.  Surely to be fair you must apply your mistrust of everything you cannot directly observe and deem them to not exist until you have observed them.  But if you were to do that every country you have never been to does not exist.  Every movie you have not seen does not exist.  Every person you have never met does not exist.  Doesn't this seem a preposterous idea?  It does to me.  Human experience and senses are limited and so we must at times make the leap of trust that there are things beyond our everyday perception which is what extreme Zeteitcism seems to call for.  Please do not let the limits of our bodies be the limit of our knowledge.

Rama: You are over analyzing the whole situation and you know this.

There's being sceptical of events and certain things and there's an acceptance of things.
I accept that most things in life work as told, or there about, yet I haven't tested the inner working of it all.

Let me just clarify something.
If men went to the moon in the 60's and there was very little discrepancies, regardless of them supposedly being debunked, I would have accepted it for what it was, even today, even if people picked up on the few things wrong..
The reality is, it's riddled to hell with anomalies and I don't care whether people tell me I'm no expert...neither are they.

Are you telling me that you find everything above board with the moon landings and nothing looks odd to you?

Are you telling me that you find everything above board with the moon landings and nothing looks odd to you?

I am not being over-analytical.  I have a big problem with people calling the moon landings fake and doubting nuclear energy though.  I lump it in with holocaust denial as dangerous lines of thought because they lead to the belief of things like mysterious golbal conspiracies.  That is neither here nor there, just my personal belief.

Do I find everything above board with the moon landings?

Overall yes I find the moon landings to be above board.  My technical knowledge is limited but the explanations of alleged discrepancies make sense to me based on my hobbyists knowledge of both science and my professional work in the film industry.  I especially do not ascribe validity to any questions of the speed or quality of movement on the moon as I have seen the alleged "slo-mo" footage sped up and it looks utterly ridiculous.  If suspicion of the moon landings were only confined to Apollo 11, then I would hold it in higher regard as that is where most people find fault.  To say all moon landings are false seems to be an exptraordinary claim to me since I have seen no attempt, other than your lunar landing module photo the other day, to show the other moon landings were false.  I have seen people explain them away with the incredibly lazy explanation, "If you can fake one, you can fake them all".  But that does no favors to the motion that all moon landings were false, because I could think of reasons why they might fake one and not the others.  In summary, I have not found any compelling evidence to say the moon landings are fake, and just so you dont think I am generally close-minded, I think there is more suspicious activity around 9/11 than the moon landings, so please dont exclude me on the grounds of "being brainwashed" as you are wont to do.

Thanks.  (someone hates that, not sure why.)

The fact that you are in the film industry and cannot see any fault in the moon landings puts you firmly in the Thaggy bracket. Maybe a tag team eh?

It doesn't matter at the end of the day as things will be faked and continue to be faked, yet it's just nice to know I don't sit and swallow it all or get remotely swayed by people who clearly know it's a fake but defend it like a lioness with her cubs.

That is wishful thinking. Me being in the film industry does not predispose me to "knowing" the moon landings are fake. I said that I have not seen any evidence of a faked moon landing that does not have a very reasonable explanation and I have seen nothing put forward regarding the other 7 moon landings either. You may think I am lying but your willingness to believe in conspiracies over other explanations makes that unsurprising.

You are correct.
It's like, why am I here on this flat earth forum? Why are you?
Why is anyone on any forum that argues point against point?

I don't expect to find the truth to most of anything, yet I also will not just simply accept something because a mass of people decide I'm in a minority.

If you genuinely see no reason at all that anything is faked about space, then carry on. I won;t be following  that line of thought because I'm 100% convinced in my own mind , after viewing and listening to astro liars, plus footage and pictures, plus craft etc, that it's all FAKED.

It doesn't matter at the end of the day as things will be faked and continue to be faked, yet it's just nice to know I don't sit and swallow it all or get remotely swayed by people who clearly know it's a fake but defend it like a lioness with her cubs.

I don't "clearly know its a fake".  I don't understand how you can say that.
If you are in the film industry, you know it's fake.

Now I'm curious.  How do you figure that?
Well, the way I figure it, he will know just how Kubrick went about it all and how the stuff is set up with studio props and stuff. Or maybe I'm assuming he's part of that side and maybe he's not part of filming or anything like that. If so, I will apologise to him.

Do you really think if Kubrick did that, all future filmmakers would be involved? Why would he know about all this stuff you say Kubrick did?
Because he will know the system. It may have different scenery but the ways  will be similar in how they do it all.

You understand that the possibility of something happening (i.e. a moon landing being faked) is substantially different than the actuality of the event happening?  Knowing that it could have been faked does not get you all the way to your conclusion.
You are correct.
It's like, why am I here on this flat earth forum? Why are you?
Why is anyone on any forum that argues point against point?

I don't expect to find the truth to most of anything, yet I also will not just simply accept something because a mass of people decide I'm in a minority.

If you genuinely see no reason at all that anything is faked about space, then carry on. I won;t be following  that line of thought because I'm 100% convinced in my own mind , after viewing and listening to astro liars, plus footage and pictures, plus craft etc, that it's all FAKED.

So your position is that no one can know anything for certain except in the special case of you and the moon landing where you are 100% convinced.

You can know anything and everything you believe you know, as I can and everyone else. You question what I believe and I question what you believe. It doesn't stop us believing what we still believe, unless you get someone that did believe something, who sees alternative views and decides to check it all out for themselves, which may lead them to take a different route.

The problem with in plain site but top secret stuff, it's never going to be cut and dried either way, because it cannot be directly proved, even though evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of it being a scam, hoax or whatever.

I am an aspiring filmmaker and what you are saying just makes no sense to me. Kubrick's "system" wouldn't matter. Not all filmmakers follow the same systems or rules or whatever you're talking about. If Kubrick did fake this stuff and Rama Set was going to film his own fake landing footage, he wouldn't have to know anything about Kubrick's "system". Of course he could be influenced by it, study it to perfect his own picture. Suggesting that all people involved with the film industry would know that this stuff is all fake and a conspiracy is pretty ridiculous.

Well of course there isn't, because to explain it would mean the lie is exposed.
I mean, you don;t think N.A.S.A would keep this picture up on their site do you, after being exposed.
You see N.A.S.A just sit back and wait for people to expose their lies and each picture the conspiracy theorists bring up as dubious, N.A.S.A alters or it disappears, just like the many things of the moon landing have disappeared.

I mean, you don;t think N.A.S.A would keep this picture up on their site do you, after being exposed.
You see N.A.S.A just sit back and wait for people to expose their lies and each picture the conspiracy theorists bring up as dubious, N.A.S.A alters or it disappears, just like the many things of the moon landing have disappeared.
If you can't say where the picture came from then there is nothing to explain and no proof of a conspiracy using this picture, as a conspiracy believer would say "jeez you believe that, those tyre tracks are so fake"

Oh, I'm well aware of that and I know that many debunkers will immediately say it's faked and what not.
The point is, It's there as a picture and the tyre tracks could be faked, although in reality that's a genuine N.A.S.A picture that's just been discarded(in my opinion) because they made a boo boo having tracks with a supposed moon buggy still packed up.
You are entitled to think it's a fake though, so fair deal.

Any of you moon landing believers care to explain your way out of this?

Have you got the link to the original image?
No, just this.
Then there's nothing to explain.

If you look at the photo preceding it in the sequence you can see its position relative to the LM as well as the track in the photo you show and the tracks made by the other wheels.

Where do you think they kept the cover that the LRV was transported in? Like I say I'm trying to find the original so I can take a closer look at the packed lrv/cover on the side of the lander. For someone so skeptical you're awfully trusting of things that agree with your point of view.

The main argument seems to be centered around the idea that in 1969 it was not possible to slow video down to half speed. I don't find this argument particularly compelling.

Video didn't exist in 1969.  It was film.  Standard home movie projection ran at about 18 frames per second.  The reason old movies ran so fast is because they were recorded at 10 FPS and played at 18 FPS.  The simple way to slow video is to record it at 18 and play it at 10. 

However, Popular Science debunked every single conspiracy theory so far.

I'll tell you what. Bring up that stitched together photo and let's see what all these people in here can see of it being stitched together because it didn't look stitched together by what I saw.

The reason it was said to be stitched together was because it was proved to be fake with anomalies, so what to do, what to do. Ok we will say it's stitched together, yet a picture like what you posted had no reason whatsoever to be stitched together at all.

Spy satellites orbit at a relatively low altitude, especially when compared to geostationary ones. Here's a link to a discussion about what they probably can and can't see. I say probably as we're really talking about military tech (read confidential) but the stuff about theoretical limits is interesting.

http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/EPO/LROC/lroc.php?pg=specifications (http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/EPO/LROC/lroc.php?pg=specifications)

it has a resolution of 0.5m per pixel.

On a purely practical note though it's easier to send an object into a low orbit around the earth than to the moon therefore it's easier to stick a big camera around the earth than the moon. As the main declared goal of the mission wasn't to provide proof of the lunar landings then they will have sent the best camera that can to do what they want for the lowest weight.

Why can satellites see our cars, even from 200 km high and see them perfectly well and in focus and the colour, yet an orbiting 30km probe cannot even distinguish anything that remotely looks like a lander, even though it has no atmosphere to scupper it's view.

You do know that you can look through a powerful telescope and see the lunar rover sitting on the moon.

I'm afraid to say this isn't true. A lunar orbiter recently took pictures of some of the landing sites but they are in orbit of the moon obviously. You can't see the landing sites with a telescope on the moon. As much as I wish you could.

That would be an incredible sight, but yes all we have are fuzzy pictures from that orbiter which is ONLY 30 miles above the surface :/
Explain to me why a supposed satellite can zoom in on your car in your street as clear as anything from supposedly 23,000 miles into space, through an atmosphere and yet a lunar orbiter, supposedly only 30 miles above a moon with supposedly no atmosphere cannot see the stuff the Astro liars left.

Explain this please?

How do you know they can't see it?  Because they won't share their prize pics with you?
You mean that's not the real picture that's posted of the LM and stuff?  ::)

Spy satellites orbit at a relatively low altitude, especially when compared to geostationary ones. Here's a link to a discussion about what they probably can and can't see. I say probably as we're really talking about military tech (read confidential) but the stuff about theoretical limits is interesting.

http://everything2.com/title/Spy+satellites+can%2527t+read+your+license+plate (http://everything2.com/title/Spy+satellites+can%2527t+read+your+license+plate)

and here's a link to the specifications for the LRO

http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/EPO/LROC/lroc.php?pg=specifications (http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/EPO/LROC/lroc.php?pg=specifications)

it has a resolution of 0.5m per pixel.

On a purely practical note though it's easier to send an object into a low orbit around the earth than to the moon therefore it's easier to stick a big camera around the earth than the moon. As the main declared goal of the mission wasn't to provide proof of the lunar landings then they will have sent the best camera that can to do what they want for the lowest weight.
I'll ask once again.

Why can satellites see our cars, even from 200 km high and see them perfectly well and in focus and the colour, yet an orbiting 30km probe cannot even distinguish anything that remotely looks like a lander, even though it has no atmosphere to scupper it's view.

How do you know they can't?  Have you talked to them?

I answered you.  The LRO weighs 100kgs, to the KH-11s 12,000kgs.  The KH-11 carries more in the way of optical magnifiers including a massive mirror for image focusing.  The KH-11 has a better camera by a wide margin.  On the links I posted you can see that the LROC achieves 50cm/pixel resolution on wide angle to the KH-11s 15cm/pixel despite the atmosphere and distance. Makes sense considering it has a smaller variety of instruments and is 12x as massive.

EDIT: Also the LRO orbits at 30 miles, so its more like 50kms.

Well if they can, why aren't we shown photos of the landers in quality photos. Let us see the stuff on the moon that we have all become familiar with.
Will it silence many critics?
I bet it would silence three quarters, which would mean NASA has the ball in their court once again, so why don;t they show us?

I'll tell you why.
Because there is no man made object of any description on that moon and they can't fake it as it would take too much time to fake it all again using what they supposedly left as props and stuff would be long gone and making new ones would prove a pain in the arse and they know it.

What I am telling you is this:

That the LRO which is 1/12th the mass of a KH-11 (and smaller again than the KH-12) has significantly less space for optical systems than a KH-11.  Since it cannot accommodate the large optical systems it has much larger limitations on its resolving power.

My question for you is, "Why do you think the LROshould be able to make out the stars on a flag on the moon or something else suitably small?"

There are photos posted earlier in this thread and easily available online, so perhaps you should concentrate on what you see rather than what you assume?

It can make out the moon, it cannot make out objects on the moon.  If you have looked at a Hubble telescope image, you can see that there is not a lot of fine detail in them.  It takes in a lot of light but does not resolve it in to fine images.

You do know that you can look through a powerful telescope and see the lunar rover sitting on the moon.
Unfortunately, telescopes that powerful don't currently exist.

Hubble

Hubble's resolution is not good enough to see objects on the moon.  It is meant only to see objects in deep space where you do not need the kind of resolution seen on a spy satellite.

So explain to me why Hubble can see zillions of miles away but can't seem to make out the moon.
this might answer it

Well we already know they don't waste money sending complex craft to the moon by the tin foil and card board craft they used.

So even though a quarter of the world knows the moon landings were faked, don't you think they would prove it wasn't once and for all and equip an extra camera to an orbiter already 50 km near the moon.

Just think, I mean it's your job on the line I know but...just think, if they just done that and showed us all the stuff on the moon, it would satisfy everyone except just a few small pockets of people as long as what they showed was how it was all left of course.
That way, they could  save a fortune in paying people like you to constantly keep their side going.

True.
I mean 44 years nearly and they can't attach a video to an orbiter that can capture mans journey to the moon and show all the young people of today just what was left there.
Imagine that?
But no...they won;t do that because they don't want to appear to satisfy the tin foil hat nutters who say it was fake.

Conspiracy theorists wouldn't believe it anyway so why bother? You've been shown a picture taken from a small craft orbiting the moon that shows man made objects on the moon but your argument is "it's not a good enough resolution", if it was good enough to see footprints your argument would be "that's too clear, it's obviously a sound stage". So I ask again why should they bother?

They dont need to supplement the video, audio and photographic evidence that already exists. The accomplishment is well-documented.  You choose not to believe it and that is fine, but it is ridiculous to assume that NASA needs to add any further evidence of what they have done.  They are moving on to other things like plans for putting a base on the moon.  I hope it happens in my lifetime.

I'm going to put this to you and this will give me a clear indication if you are even worth answering to, so here goes.

In that picture, can you see man made objects on the moon that you can discern as man made objects or can you see them because you have been told that this is the site of a landing and that's the spot with blobs and dots as remnants of stuff left behind.

A quarter of the Earth's population not believing in the moon landings is a pretty bold claim, to say the least. You cannot please all of the people all of the time, and more would be in an uproar about wasting money to prove something to a very small minority than those that would be satisfied by the results. Even if, for some inexplicable reason, they decided to prove to the "nonbelievers" that we had been to the moon, the majority of this small group would pass it off as fake anyway, thus making their money and efforts a complete waste of time.

Putting a base on the moon are they.
They want to learn to put a rocket into space before they do that.
They could be a bit rusty after 44 years.

The fake story.
To put a base upon the moon, you scrap the moon missions from 1972 onwards, then you build a shuttle or two and a space station.
You keep sending up shuttles with men and women on, to add bits to the space station, whilst doing important experiments like taking guitars up there and flutes, plus toy lions and such.
All of a sudden, you scrap the shuttle and leave it up to Russian rockets that use basically the same thing everyone used in the 60's, which is a re-entry capsule that lands in the ocean.

Even though all technology advances. The space program takes a massive step backwards in time.
Now it's time to send people back to the moon and actually build moon bases regardless of no man ever being there since 1972...yet immediately get to work building moon bases.

Not only do they have to get rockets built that's capable of this but they have to build something capable of landing moon base equipment to build it.

How in the hell people cannot see this for the absolute complete and utter trash it is, I honestly don't know but each to their own.

The MESA is lowered and the rover has already been deployed and driven.  The MESA and rover were stowed in two different places.


No, I can clearly see where the rover was maneuvered around, and in the process of walking around they obscured some of the tire tracks.

You don't have to take me seriously or anything. That's your prerogative.
I certainly don't take people seriously when they frantically try to find ways of getting out of tight situations and when they can't figure it out, either by looking for debunking articles on it, they will make up something, no matter how silly it looks.
That's just the way it is.
I don't, and neither should anyone else who has at least an average, or above average, understanding of cameras and imaging.

I didn't frantically make anything up.  I looked at the picture, and then looked up information on the lander.  The MESA is a large bundle that folds out of the lander just like the rover.  They're in two different locations.  The rover has been deployed and driven whilst the MESA is lowered in that picture.

The other picture doesn't look like it's been edited.  I looked closely at it too.  Tire marks back and forth, and foot prints back and forth with dust kicked around.  I don't see any definitive line, pixel difference, shadow difference, so on and so forth.

http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/alsj.funpix.html (http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/alsj.funpix.html)
1 November 2012

In early 2008, Ed Hengeveld used portions of AS11-40-5863 to 69 to create a view of Buzz on the porch (4.0 Mb or 0.4 Mb). Neil did not capture the top rear of the LM with these pictures, so Ed filled the gap with a portion of AS11-44-6576, which was taken in orbit after undocking. Late in 2012, AwE130 suggested that Ed's creation more properly belongs on the page with other creative works, rather than in the Apollo 11 Image Library.

I'm not interested in any other one, I'm only interested in the first one you posted that you said was stitched together.
I cannot find anywhere where you have pointed that tells me it's stitched together and I'd like someone else to point it out.
The fact that some of your backers are not, who claim to be experts on photography, tells me, it's not stitched together at all.

Very well since I'm going to be the only one to analyze and publish my findings.  Also since we know perfectly well no FE'r will do so, especially Scepti....

1. (left and right) shading of surface doesnt' match
2. blurry spots
3. shading difference can be seen
4. bottom two steps angle is off
5. seam visible
6. seam and extra fill visible
7. shading and double image
8. antenna sun-lit from wrong direction
9. lighting doesn't look right
10 ladder rail doesn't match
11 strut not straight
12 seam (actually is part of original photo, probably fold down compartment seam)
13 strut not straight
14 see above

22 horizon joint (will have to double check- I might be too picky)
23 rocks and shading double
24 shading not right  (will double check this too)
25 shading definatly not right
26 blurriness
27 (screwed up my numbering- kids don't multitask and count while drawing, you get sea-sick)

It's not small anomalies I'm after. It's arrows pointing to where Thaggy said it was many photos stitched together.
He says I can't spot fakes, yet if this photo is stitched together, then he's right, I can't, yet it appears nobody else can either, so my conclusion is, it isn't stitched at all, it's simply a staged photo in a studio.

Why is this annoying you so much, didn't he draw big boxes around where the original pictures were and then link to a vid as well? I can't see the joins either but I did go and have a look at the original images to check

He based that photo on me not being able to see the stitching together of many and said I couldn't even tell it was different photos to prove to me that I can't spot photo shop and such, so I told him to put it up and let others see the stitching of which I admit, I can't and yet he's put boxes in 3 places and I still can't see the stitching. It appears no one else can either.

The photos weren't simply laid on top of each other.  They were laid on top, aligned, resized, stretched to align, other spots were filled in with material from yet other photographs, lens flare spots were removed, some were added, bits of one picture were copied and pasted next to spots to fill in gaps, so on and so on.  It's not just a simple "spot the edge of the photos".

I looked and spotted things that indicated to me it was a photoshop, and then looked at the original three images that are provided in the links to verify that what I found were indeed effects of editing.

I would say you should try following your own advice there Scepti:
It takes an unbiased in depth critical analysis of all footage and pictures
However it appears you don't want to, or don't know how.

So in that case, when you say a picture is fake, why should we take you seriously?

Have a look then.  Pythagoras put links to the original three images on the previous page.  I circled what seemed like errors, and then looked at the originals.  It takes some zooming in to spot most of them.

i don't understand why sceptic thinks their will be a huge visible line where the photos are put together.  ??? its a edited picture for publication iv shown all original videos plus a video showing what has been done to stitch the video. ( sceptic refuses to watch it)

a lot of silhouette things are actually right.

8. antenna sun-lit from wrong direction
    no antenna in original photo. it was taken from another mission entirely.

20 strut lighting and edges obvious from alt source
21 strut seam
22 horizon joint (will have to double check- I might be too picky)
23 rocks and shading double
24 shading not right  (will double check this too)
25 shading definatly not right
26 blurriness
this is the main seam of two of the main pictures.

 28 sun is just too perfect
    sun is completely added. not even a picture of the sun.

1. (left and right) shading of surface doesnt' match
     lens flair removed

4. bottom two steps angle is off
    pphoto is vertically stretched.

not to sure about the rest but good shout on most of it.

I'm interested in the stitching together and I cannot see any. I'm not concentrating on small anomalies. That wasn't the issue Thaggy and you know it.
I'd like some unbiased opinions on this supposed stitching together if there is any, which I cannot see and I don't care how good it's stitched, you would still notice something with those contrasts I can tell you that much.
Let's just assume it has though Thaggy: what possible reason would someone do that for?

its an assembled panorama. from where he is standing you cannot get the whole lander in the shot so he takes multiple photos of different parts of the lander and the surrounding and then the photos are stitched together to give the impression of one photo. is it relay that hard to understand. even for you?

I'll tell you what is hard to understand Thaggy. See if you agree with me, (chortle)...
What I find hard to understand is, why would an Astro liar go to the moon with a big numb Hasselblad camera strapped to his chest knowing how extremely difficult it was to take pictures and get focus with no view finder etc and decide to take a panoramic view of that piece of cardboard and tin foil crap?

Can you explain why anyone would do this?
Title: Re: Moon Hoax, Not
Post by: Pythagoras on February 28, 2013, 11:45:30 AM
yes they did know it was going to be hard that's why they spent months with it strapped to their chests to practice and it was not a standard camera it was heavily modified.

also they took many hundreds to thousands of pictures over the course of all the missions and what is published our the highlights I.E the best photos. if you go to the official archive* you will see all the ones not published, many were awful quality as well as the ones that were good quality before they were edited for release. this is an example of a bad photo

I don't think I've ever actually had to explain this, so I'll give it a go.

So he can get a close up detailed shot, and then also add the views that couldn't be framed in the single image.  Putting them together gives an added sense of the size of an object.  Standing that close to something, you'd have to turn your head multiple directions to look directly at parts of it.  You can take pictures looking in these different directions, and put them together to show that entire view.

It's a technique one can use in the absence of a wide angle or fish eye lens.  I've done it several times with my own pictures.  Just last Saturday I did a panoramic of a waterfall series at a local creek.  I did a rough composite of three pictures, but haven't taken the time to really blend the edges.  I did another set of 5 or 6, but haven't worked with them at all yet.

Whether it's a small waterfall, or the landing module, it results in a more impressive view of a scene as opposed to simple backing up and zooming in.

I wonder what happened to that photo.
I don't just mean the exposure, I mean the sloppy way it was taken. I mean , I thought these Astro liars had been highly trained not to get these out of focus considering the fantastic pictures they took which would have made a professional photographer proud even using a tripod.

Anyway, just out of interest, what caused this particular picture to go like this in terms of blur?

and no its not best to pick bad quality photos for proving its a hoax but you cant say how are all the photos so perfect as if taken by a professional when a lot of them are in fact awful quality and many of the so called professional photos you post are not the originals and are edited.
You mean like the professional so called legitimate ones you post that are all edited?

Can you explain why anyone would do this?
I don't think I've ever actually had to explain this, so I'll give it a go.

So he can get a close up detailed shot, and then also add the views that couldn't be framed in the single image.  Putting them together gives an added sense of the size of an object.  Standing that close to something, you'd have to turn your head multiple directions to look directly at parts of it.  You can take pictures looking in these different directions, and put them together to show that entire view.

It's a technique one can use in the absence of a wide angle or fish eye lens.  I've done it several times with my own pictures.  Just last Saturday I did a panoramic of a waterfall series at a local creek.  I did a rough composite of three pictures, but haven't taken the time to really blend the edges.  I did another set of 5 or 6, but haven't worked with them at all yet.

Whether it's a small waterfall, or the landing module, it results in a more impressive view of a scene as opposed to simple backing up and zooming in.
That's fair enough in what you are doing.
Just be honest with me here. Do you not find it odd that men would go to the moon and spend time getting pictures just so they can show a panoramic view of stitched together photos, when they have video of it all and also considering these big cameras were strapped to their chests.
Does this not seem odd to you at all?
No.  I don't find it odd.

I'd be taking pictures of all sorts of angles too.  Pictures of the entire scene in one shot, multiple pictures for panoramics, etc.  The image quality from any video is not as clear as the still shots, so yes, I'd be taking lots of still shots.

Apollo 14........... 374
Apollo 15..........1021
Apollo 16..........1765
Apollo 17..........1986

The time spent on the moon by all missions.

Apollo 11........1 EVA .....2 hours, 31 minutes......(151 minutes)

Apollo 16........3 EVAs...20 hours, 14 minutes....(1214 minutes)
Apollo 17........3 EVAs...22 hours, 04 minutes....(1324 minutes)


Total minutes on the Moon amounted to 4834 minutes.
Total number of photographs taken was 5771 photos.

That amounts to 1.19 photos taken EVERY MINUTE of time on the Moon.  ::)

I belive you might want to double check your last bit of math. And you are using EVA time from what I can tell not the entire time they spent on the moon. Apollo 11 for instance spent 23 hours 36 mins on the surface. Many photos were taken from within the LEM

The reason for this is not clear but I'd hazard a guess that the Astro liars thought it was much better to video and photograph mounds and mounds of cement/sand like moon dust.

For them to take pictures of the earth from the moon would require the moon to be directly above their heads and huge. Maybe they didn't have the necessary technology at the time to fake this, which makes sense as the other fakery is laughable.

Perfect colour isn't it. would you not think they could make white foam. Also, why the hell did they paint the foam on the tank for the first few missions?

It seems strange why you would cover a tank in rust coloured foam and even stranger why they could not make that foam white in colour anyway and even stranger as to why they would paint over foam in the first place.
For supposed geniuses, they do some silly things don't they.
A big space shuttle like that and a little woodpecker can scupper the launch.  ;D

The fuel tank was painted white at firstto reduced the effects of sunlight whilst on the launch pad, after that it was realised that the unit wasnt out in the sunshine long enough for this to be required. Like I said before, which you ignored cos it doesnt fit your agenda, the tanks are made from Copper/aluminium alloy so arnt going rust are they?

I just find it odd why they would cover a tank in foam and make the foam look like the colour of a rusty tank. Don't you find that a bit odd?

Obviously you won't find it odd, I know that but I find it extremely odd. I also find it extremely odd as to why they would cover a tank like that in foam in the first place, yet even more odd that they would decide to actually paint the foam white on the first few missions.

They sorted the woodpecker problem out though. It takes genius to sort of those pesky woodpeckers.
What you do is, you hang a balloon up with an owls face on it and bingo, no woodpecker will mess with an owl balloon, even if it's a crap owl lookalike painted on it.

It's not me that's picking holes. You can blame those pesky woodpeckers for that.

Do you think that the big rusty looking tank isn't actually a tank at all and it just an empty cylinder of foam and inner skeleton of mesh and stuff.

It makes perfect sense to cover it in foam. It's insulating a substance that is minus a couple of hundred degrees. As for the colour I have no idea why its orange. You realy are picking holes in tiny inconsequential things.
It's not me that's picking holes. You can blame those pesky woodpeckers for that.

Do you think that the big rusty looking tank isn't actually a tank at all and it just an empty cylinder of foam and inner skeleton of mesh and stuff.

The best way to keep minus 300 degree Hydrogen as liquid is to spray one inch...(1 inch) of foam thickness onto the tank and this keeps your Hydrogen from turning back into gas and blowing your shuttle to smithereens.
This foam can also withstand 25,000 mph speeds. It's no match for woodpeckers though.

Are you trying to say that foam should hold back all that preasure? ??? You know it's a metal tank covered in foam right? And the tank isn't traveling at 250000 mph it never reaches that speed at all. And only reaches its top speed once its in the upper atmosphere where air density is many magnitudes less causing many times less friction.

Why are you inventing random numbers like 25,000 mph? Is it to make your argument stronger? Because it just proves to us you have no idea what you are talking about. Please stick to official numbers when you are trying argue your case.

This is where things get really stupid with these launches.
One minute they are worried about flecks of paint....yes paint, (on earlier fake missions) falling off and then they worried about foam falling off on "launch"...
They did not worry one little bit about the massive chunks of ice falling from the Saturn V.....nooooo. it's just frozen water and not dangerous like flaking paint or super dense  ;) shuttle destroying foam.

I'm quite sure sensible people can see just what a load of garbage this all is, except the shills of course.

no it wouldn't. you use the actual speeds the craft travels at. if you are trying to question the ability of a craft to travel at certain speeds you need to actually use the speeds it travels at. not random numbers you pick from your head.

yes the bottom stage that gets jettisoned soon after launch has small fins that can take small impacts because they are not designed to hold pressure like a fuel tank or re entry heat like the space shuttle. so whats your problem their then?

firstly you need to prove to us what damage ice would cause to the fins then perhaps reference us to some engineering drawings of the Saturn v S-IC stage detailing the fins you describe showing us how the fins could not cope with impacts from falling ice and if their are any parts of the design ment to mitigate this.

The Saturn V rocket stood 363 ft (over 35 stories tall) 33 ft in diameter, and weighed around 3,000 Tons.

The height was about 2 times that of the space shuttle.

To us, thinking about the size, it doesn't really register does it but if you try and picture it, just think of the average sized house is about 30 feet from floor to roof peak, now imagine 12 of them all balanced on top of each other and there's your 5 f1 engined Saturn ready for take off.  ::)

The power generated by the 5 F1 engines of its first stage was in excess of 150 GW (1 GW  = 1,000 MW). That’s roughly equivalent to the entire installed power generation capacity in India! Or nearly 2.5 times of the power generation capacity in Texas.  ::)

 The fuel consumption of the first stage was a staggering 15 Tons / sec of Kerosene. The fuel pumps that fed the engines alone consumed 100s of MW of power, enough to light an entire city.  ::)

The total lift capacity for putting a payload in a ‘low earth orbit’ (LEO) was about 120 Tons. And the capacity for putting a payload in a lunar orbit was around 47 Tons. For comparison imagine putting an entire fully loaded Boeing 757 into a low earth orbit, or a Boeing 737 into a lunar orbit!  ::)

 The thrust generated by each of the first stage’s F1 engine was around 7.6 Million lb ft.  Again compare that with a supersonic fighter jet, F16: 23,000 lb ft and an engine of the Boeing 747: 60,000 lb ft......5 f1 engines as well, would you believe.  ::) ;D

 The noise levels and vibrations/shockwaves generated during lift-off (or ‘blast-off’ as it is often and more appropriately referred to…) were so high that spectators were kept at least 3 miles away. Apparently, this does not affect cameras or the rocket itself shaking tins of ice off of itself like a shooting gallery towards the tail fins.  ::)


 The 1st stage of the Saturn V rocket consumed kerosene and liquid oxygen. The 2nd and 3rd stages consumed liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. Unlike the space shuttle, or any of the rockets in the Indian Space Program, there were no solid fuel boosters. A majority of the 3000 tons lift off weight of the Saturn V comprised of the propellant and liquid oxygen. Apparently, they did not need spray on foam for these stages as it was ok for ice to form and fall off, plus allowing the temperature to raise wasn't a problem in the late 60's.  ::)

. The costing of the Saturn V program is also quite staggering. It was one of the biggest chunks of the overall Apollo Program. Across the 1960s and early 1970s, the Saturn V program cost around US $ 6.5 B – this figure adjusted for today’s prices comes at around US $ 35- 40 B !
And to think, we've managed to bin the shuttle and some entrepreneurs can do it for a few million or less now.  ::)

No, not this one again, I've already explained my reasons and I'm not going to do it again.  ;D
I don't remember you going into the size limits for a working rocket though it's probably in there somewhere :)
I don't think I did, maybe because I was concentrating on the fuel/vacuum stuff.
Well it is one of your crazier ideas.
It would be great if there was a way to prove it, one way or the other wouldn't it.

You can prove it though, but you would need access to a vacuum chamber and a rocket of course. You could try making them, but idk if that's legal. :P

Hi,
Has anyone got any pics, or links to pics of the earth photographed from standing on the surface of the moon?, not from the space craft orbiting the moon.
All I can seem to find is the orbital ones.

A response with information would be appreciated.
There aren't any.
The reason for this is not clear but I'd hazard a guess that the Astro liars thought it was much better to video and photograph mounds and mounds of cement/sand like moon dust.

For them to take pictures of the earth from the moon would require the moon to be directly above their heads and huge. Maybe they didn't have the necessary technology at the time to fake this, which makes sense as the other fakery is laughable.

And to think of all the thousands of hours work that went into making those fake photographs - You could almost beleive they really were taken by one of a myriad of space exploration craft, that dont really exist ;)

Hey, yeah! Let's talk about that. What about all of the man hours put into working on these things? What were all of these people doing in that time if this was all a hoax?

Thanks Spectimatic.

Agree seems odd, how many years have man stood on earth looking at the moon, even taking photographs of it. Now when they are standing on the moon, there's not a photo STANDING on the moons surface looking at the earth?

Ahem.  Of course there will be cries of fakery, but here it is.

Well Marko:
I'm sure that even you would agree. For that picture to be passed off as real and going by what we are told to believe, then the earth is looking very anorexic isn't it when you consider it's supposed to be 4 times bigger than the moon.

it looks adsactly as it should do. their are various things that can change apparent size of an object in the background. that beside it looks to be the size it should be anyway.

Of course it does. If it were a shoe instead of the earth, you would say it's correct and earth is just in it's brogue phase.  ;D

I haven't got the faintest idea what earth should "exactly" look like from space, because I've never been into space but judging by the fake pictures and how big we are told the earth is compared to the moon, I would expect the earth to look considerably bigger than the moon looks to us, yet it doesn't.

once again you offer opinion as fact and uneducated observations as evidence. you mix them up all the time. the picture appears adsactly as it should do you offer us no reason to think otherwise

you use the word brainwashed frequently yet you have constantly proven to us that you are the most closed minded person on this site

I won't know for sure...but if it strikes a chord and makes me sit back and think, " hang on a minute, this is real" or " I wonder if I'm wrong about this stuff" then I will surely say it, if I believe I am wrong.
I'm not going to do it just because I'm in a minority or from peer pressure, intimidation or ridicule, (not from you by the way, I mean in general)...I will make my decisions myself based on everything I see.

Everything I see up to now, stinks of fakery and until somethings' are shown that appear nailed on correct, I'll evaluate my stance.

I see too many people saying I'm closed minded, yet I have changed my stance from a round stationary earth to a massive siding towards a flat earth and I didn't do it by being ridiculed into it, I done it because that makes more logical sense, so that tells anyone that I am open minded, I just have an allergy to what appears to be bull crap and that's what I see coming from those that can see absolutely no wrong in anything official.

Sorry but Sceptimatics objection is justifiable here. Why is the earth so small on this picture? I also think it should be bigger. I have no idea, really. Could that all be a big conspiracy started by the Bavarian Globemaker's Guild 500 years ago...

The earth seen from the moon should look bigger than the moon seen from the earth. If not show me why or I declare earth to be flat at once and I am much more powerful than Thork and Darth Vader together! (http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/Smileys/classic/angry.gif)

It's a little more than 1/4, and I guess we need a picture of the moon from earth with the identical lens setup to know for sure.

The size of an object in a photo depends on the size of the object, the distance from the camera and the relationship between the focal length of the lens and the size of the film.  How do you know that a 7900 mile diameter sphere 250,000 miles away isn't supposed to look like that to a 70mm camera with a 60mm lens?

This is where we use logic.
My logic tells me you are real and your logic also tells you that I am real.
Whether we are is irrelevant because we are typing to each other and accept it as logical we both exist.
If you are a robot, then you are still Markjo. If you are a ghost, you are still Markjo.
I'm typing to Markjo and I picture a male of some description. What I cannot do is accurately picture your attributes but I can build one based on things you may say, yet still pass you in the street, as my image will not reflect the image you portray, unless I somehow managed to get lucky and the same applies to anyone.
