Title: For all mankind.
Post by: Humble_Scientist on January 25, 2014, 12:19:36 PM
Ladies and Gentlemen,

I have recently got a rare, old and precious movie, and the quality is not too bad. "For all mankind". It is about NASA "lunar missions". Do you have it or I should try uploading to Youtube, so everyone could watch it? It is even funnier than I thought.

In the meantime, enjoy just two screenshots, 04:02 and 04:24. The "austronauts" are coming to the "spaceship", to "fly" to the "moon":

Come on hoppy there's no porter. They are making them carry their own luggage.
I wonder what's in them bags?

I think (not so) Humble_Scientist was alluding to the difference in equipment between the two stills. Given that this was a documentary, I imagine they would have used file footage from a number of Apollo missions to make the film. There would have been numerous revisions and modifications to their equipment over time, so it is not surprising to see two different sets of gear in the documentary.

I wonder what's in them bags?

Portable oxygen supply, and possibly some other equipment associated with the running of the suits. The astronauts would have had to prepare for the reduced pressure, pure O2 environment that they would be living in for the duration of the mission. In order to avoid the pain and potential incapacitation that comes with nitrogen bubbles in the blood, they would have been breathing pure oxygen for an hour or so before boarding. U2 pilots also do this before each flight.

Wow. Just a few funny things:

The first image: NASA emblems on the right shoulders
The second image: no NASA emblems on the right shoulders

The first image: all the hoses going from their luggage to the "spacesuits" are white
The second image: the second "astronaut" has black hoses, with white bands

The first image: two of the three "spacesuits" have hoses attached on both sides
The second image: two of the three "spacesuits" have hoses attached on the right side

The second image: the first "astronaut's" hoses have nice red and blue ends at the "spacesuits"
The first image: all hoses have white ends

The first image: red bands (tape?) around arms and legs of the first "astronaut". Later, no "astronauts" in the elevator has them.

The first image: all pieces of their luggage are dark-blue
The second image: light grey

The first image, luggage: small upper handle
The second image: big handle

Look at the size and shape of the luggage in both images

Now look at the right side of the "astronauts'" chests. First image: no NASA emblem. Second image: NASA emblem.

Now look at their gloves, how different they are... Look at the second image, blue stuff on the right sleeve of the first guy, - nothing like that in the first picture. Wait a minute... yes, here we are... look at the screenshot at 04:06. What is that on the back of the second "astronaut"? Look at the their luggage, this side should be the same as the front side in the second image... Where is the white stuff in the second image? Where are the brass terminals in the first image? etc. etc. etc.

OK, so the fact that these are most likely pictures from two different missions and therefore are using different technology never crossed your mind?

That one of the guys has red markings on his sleeve probably indicates that he is the commander of the crew maybe?

I mean sports teams change their uniforms every couple years or so.

Wow, this movie is a real treasure. Apollo funs in the audience, could you please tell me, are the astronauts in the first image I placed the same as in the second picture? We can decide if this was the same mission or different ones. I can send you the movie... or may be, upload it to Youtube, for it is so important (01:17:08):

Well, looks to me like they are making adjustments to the tubing of the suit.  Therefore the ends haven't been finished yet.

As for the first two images that you posted, I cannot tell if the people are the same or not, however as the suits are different, the images are most likely from different missions.

The things that you find funny and use to support your claim of a moon hoax really do not prove anything.

It's a great DVD which I have watched many times. You should check the director's commentary where Al Reinert explains that although the documentary seems to show a single moon mission it is actually a mish-mash of footage from all six Apollo missions that successfully landed on the moon (11, 12 14, 15, 16 & 17) as well as footage from the earlier Apollo and Gemini missions. A lot of the imagery is out of context, for example rocket launch footage coming from the earlier Apollo missions and spacewalks from the Gemini missions instead!

Also no need to upload it to YouTube, it's already there. Part 1 can be found at For All Mankind Part 1 (http://#) you can then follow the rest from there.

OK, so the fact that these are most likely pictures from two different missions and therefore are using different technology never crossed your mind?

Exactly, about 10 years worth of footage covering 29 missions. During the first couple of minutes of documentary before the first screenshot Humble posted they show clips of astronauts gearing up and getting checked out before transfer to the rocket. Those are taken from at least two different missions with the NASA logos switching arms and being located in different rooms. The NASA emblem was moved to the right arm from Apollo 15 onwards.

Red bands indicate the mission commander and are on both arms and legs, this started with the Apollo 13 mission and was introduced in order to differentiate between the two astronauts in images/video captured on the moon.

Thank you. So, one mission is in the shuttle bus and another is leaving it... interesting. The same mission is using different equipment... very interesting. May I ask you, who was filming that (01:13:15):

Well for starters the following image doesn't show an Apollo astronaut as he doesn't have an Apollo mission patch over his left breast.

(http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/9257/ukdl.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/822/ukdl.jpg/)

From the mission patch, this is Apollo 16 led by John W. Young (Commander).

(http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/3757/z235.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/826/z235.jpg/)

Again, this isn't an Apollo mission as there is no patch.

(http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/176/juwp.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/15/juwp.jpg/)

Earlier in the documentary you see astronauts with the Apollo 15 patch, for example here (#t=138 (http://#t=138)) which looks like James Irwin (Lunar Module Pilot).

Oh and

I have recently got a rare, old and precious movie, and the quality is not too bad.

Yup, so rare it's available to buy on Amazon.

Not really, two different missions many years apart (Apollo and Gemini) and spliced together by the documentary .

Dear dephelis,

Thank you for your answers. I am just trying to understand what is in this movie.

Not really, two different missions many years apart (Apollo and Gemini) and spliced together by the documentary

Why the same mission with the badges, a genuine mission, as you pointed out,  is using different spacesuits?

A lot of the imagery is out of context, for example rocket launch footage coming from the earlier Apollo missions and spacewalks from the Gemini missions instead!

This is very strange indeed. The movie clearly says (01:57 - 02:04):

"Twenty-four men made the journey.
They were the first human beings
to leave the planet Earth
for another world.

This is the film they brought back..."

and

"Filmed on location by the Unites States
National Aeronautic and Space Administration."

Could you please tell me, why would the "men" who "made the journey" bring back from the Moon the film filled with "a lot of the imagery" that "is out of context"?

If these people in the spacesuits that are coming into the cabin of the elevator carrying them to the rocket are not the members of the mission ("this isn't an Apollo mission as there is no patch", as you indicated), then who are they?

Now you are either being deliberately obtuse or no longer care about the subject to troll effectively. Hey ho, I can't sleep so I might as well feed you.

Listen to the director's commentary on your DVD and it explains how this documentary was made. He himself will explain why things are out of context.

The part of the documentary that shows astronauts walking down a corridor (your first screenshot) was recorded during the Apollo 15 mission. The part of the documentary that shows astronauts going into the elevator was recorded during either the early Apollo missions or Gemini missions many years earlier. Al Reinert stuck the two together to make a single sequence. How hard is it to understand the this is a documentary made in 1987 from video and audio recorded from 1962 to 1972?

Twenty four men may have made the journey to and onto the Moon, but they did it three at a time over several missions and over several years.

Very good. Now please have a look at the third image that I placed, at 04:06. It is only four seconds after the first one, at 04:02, and showing the same "mission". You said it

shows astronauts walking down a corridor (your first screenshot) was recorded during the Apollo 15 mission.

The same "astronauts", just from the back. Are their "spacesuits" different or not?

After what I have seen in just a few minutes of this movie and after your explanations, I am not going to believe a single word from NASA.

No need to refer to the second image, it is blatantly obvious that he is wearing a slightly different suit to the other two in the first image. The middle astronaut is wearing the CMB variant of the A7LB spacesuit, the first and third astronauts (the ones that land on the moon) are wearing the EVA variant of the A7LB. Two variants of the same type of suit, which have different entry methods. The CMB is opened via the back which is what the bulge is. The EVA opens diagonally across the front and from right to left across the back at the waist.

Sorry, this question wasn't clear to me the first time you asked it as I mentioned two Apollo missions.

Quite, have you actually listened to the director's commentary yet? If you choose to continue posting poorly though out and easily explained (by the directors commentary for starters) "errors" in a documentary that uses (as it explains in the directors commentary) 6 million feet of film footage and 80 hours of NASA interviews from over 10 years.

It wasn't produced by NASA. Blame Al Reinart for not using footage from a single mission and creating this confusion for you.

People like Humble_Scientist never let the facts get in the way of a good story.    ;D

Conspiracy theorists are far to eager to see errors where there are none, and often trip themselves up in their eagerness to display their superior powers of observation and logic.  Even without knowing the back-story to these screen grabs, it's more than obvious they're all from different actual missions, dry runs, or equipment testing.

It wasn't produced by NASA. Blame Al Reinart for not using footage from a single mission and creating this confusion for you.

For the rest, I am finishing uploading the movie, so it will hopefully be available in a few minutes at:

Enjoy.

Why? Your account  is unverified so you can't post clips of more than 15 minutes. Besides, as I said earlier ... it is already there and has been for at least 6 years.


Dear dephelis,

Thanks for your reply. I just want to know the truth. Once I believed that the people were walking on the Moon, but the more I am watching this movie and listening to you, the less probable it seems.

 Blame Al Reinart for not using footage from a single mission and creating this confusion for you.

Of course, I am not blaming you. I just want to explain why all that "moon landing" story now looks so doubtful to me. Briefly, just from a few minutes of the movie, and just a few examples.

(1) As we saw above, one "crew" is goind to the shuttle bus that is purposedly delivering the "mission" to the rocket, - and a different "crew" (or is it the same one? that would be even funnier) is leaving the bus, with a very different equipment. On top of all, you are telling me that the second "crew" is not a real Apollo mission, because they do not have stickers. Then, who are they? Fake "astronauts"? Actors? Other missions? Which exactly? Which missions had three people in them before Apollo missions?


(2) You told me:
It is not one mission using different spacesuits.

I showed you the picture. Now is what you are saying:
it is blatantly obvious that he is wearing a slightly different suit to the other two in the first image

(3) You said:
It wasn't produced by NASA

With all my due respect to your opinion, here is what I see at the end of the movie:

People like Humble_Scientist never let the facts get in the way of a good story.    ;D

Conspiracy theorists are far to eager to see errors where there are none, and often trip themselves up in their eagerness to display their superior powers of observation and logic.  Even without knowing the back-story to these screen grabs, it's more than obvious they're all from different actual missions, dry runs, or equipment testing.


Dear ausGeoff,

they're all from different actual missions, dry runs, or equipment testing.

This is what the movie itself says with such a solemnity:

I had initially thought it was footage from the Gemini missions, but you are correct in that there were three astronauts and the Gemini program had two astronauts per launch. On that basis I would revise my assessment to it being an Apollo practice/training run. The lack of Apollo mission patch would confirm this as they were, if I remember correctly, affixed to the suits only for the actual live mission. They are neither fake or actors, as far as I can tell.

Yes, as I said in my previous post to you, you initially said "It is not one mission using different spacesuits." without referring to which images or if it was to the clip I posted in the message you were responding to. As soon as you specified the images, I realised corrected myself appropriately.

I said it was blatantly obvious because you can see from the front of the middle astronauts suit that it is the a different variant, look at the umbilical valve configuration. They are all A7LB spacesuits, however there are two versions of that spacesuit.

That says that it filmed on location by NASA, which it was. It was directed by Al Reinert and produced by Betsy Broyles Breirer, Al Reinert, Ben Young Mason and Fred Miller. The music was by Brian Eno. It was edited by Susan Korda. The distribution company was called Apollo Associates, they no longer seem to exist so I can't tell who it was set up by. So other than the source of the footage and maybe the distribution agent, it was not produced, directed, edited or sound-tracked by NASA.

This is not an opinion, it is a fact.

Also how can it be a single launch involving three astronauts when it refers to 24 astronauts? That makes it even clearer it is not referring to a single launch.

Humble, have you or have you not listened to the directors commentary on how the documentary was made? I really would recommend it before you continue to embarrass yourself.

Oh he is. He's claiming that a documentary assembled from footage taken of multiple missions over an extended period of time which have been chopped up and reassembled to give the impression of a single mission is evidence of fakery. Unfortunately, there is no claim that this documentary is a true representation of a single mission. In fact the director himself, in the director's commentary on the DVD that Humble owns, explains how the documentary was assembled. This makes the documentary entirely useless for Humble's purpose.

I've yet to see a plausible explanation for how the footage from the actual moonwalks could possibly have been faked with technology available at the time. When you see the various techniques for faking moon gravity side-by-side with the Apollo footage, there is no comparison. The only thing that works is a parabolic flight in a vomit comet, which is neither of long enough duration or affording a large enough space to be able to fake the Apollo footage. I realise that won't convince the dedicated conspiracy theorists, but it's good enough for me, and I take a fair bit of convincing!

NASA believers, apologists, and shills never see anything amiss when it comes to the words of NASA. This brainwashing is more than likely caused by repeated exposure to space flight propaganda from birth onwards. The brain washing is so complete that they are incapable of grasping the notion that the whole moon landing story is science fiction, then presented as fact.

...the whole moon landing story is science fiction, then presented as fact.

I just wanted to address this specific part. Like I said in my last post, I just can't see how the landing could have been faked. I admit, it seems pretty implausible that we (humankind) would actually have made it to the moon, so when I found out that some people believed it to be faked, I found the idea appealing. I then started looking for possible ways that it could have been faked:
slow-motion footage: nope, doesn't look the same, no matter how hard you try
suspending actors from wires: still doesn't look the same
simulated moon gravity: looks exactly right, but there's not enough space in a vomit comet to create a suitable set, and the low-g flights are nowhere near long enough.

After a fair bit of investigation and thought, I concluded that the only possible explanation for the footage was that we had, in fact, made it to the moon.

"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

After examining the Moon landing I think the Moon landing was indeed real but a lot of the videos and stuff were doctored automatically by some fancy (for the time) video editing system. Some of the Shadows look off because they used Lenses that warped the Ground considerably. The Moons surface is far harder then anyone had ever anticipated and it has much less dust then anyone thought it would. Radiation in space doesn't effect humans the same way it does here on Earth but more study is needed on this if we ever plan to stay on any other planet for more then a few days. Right now without proper shielding staying in outer space for more then 6 months is very ill advised. I'd say it's more then likely that the Moon missions were real but I don't think there was much point to them which is why we haven't had any real reasons to return to the Moon since then.

Satellites on Earth are definitely real but most of them are static and not moving as the moving satellites need re adjustment much more often then the static satellites.

And that upwards of 40,000 scientists, technicians, engineers, astrophysicists, and the entire global media agreed to an absolute vow of silence for more than 40 years.  That this was agreed to by two arch enemies at the height of the Cold War—Russia and the US, and also China.

You don't think for a minute that Russia would've loved nothing more than proving America's claim to be winning the so-called space race to be totally fabricated?

I disagree that that's the embarrassing bit.

The embarrassing bit is even putting all that aside this video is nothing close to being any sort of evidence of fakery, If it WAS all faked the issue of different suits wouldn't even come up, why would they have made different prop suits int he first place? look at films from the time period, you might see a dodgy car in the background but the actor doesn't suddenly sprout a stetson between shots. This documentary alone doesn't prove the moon missions happened but trying to twist it and coming up with unconvincing "problems" with it just undermines the whole argument.

—Dream on my friend.
I'll tell you why they're fake and it's not a case of me just going along with conspiracy theorists. For me, this is a conspiracy that has become fact. It's a conspiracy fact in my honest opinion for many reasons.

1: Rockets  need atmosphere to work, regardless of you lot believing otherwise. They cannot operate in the upper atmosphere never mind what you people think space is, which is supposedly a vacuum...BUT...it has SCATTERED particles, we are told to believe.

2: The pressurised oxygen tanks that propel the ignited fuel out, would be rendered useless in short order as they reached a certain height due to serious expansion, blowing the rocket into smithereens.

3.So called astronauts would not survive the supposed 21,000? miles per hour vertical speed that's supposedly needed to escape the atmosphere.

4. A vacuum flask with only partially evacuated air, keeps your coffee piping hot or cold, depending on what's used. It only loses heat or becomes room temperature, because it's not a full separation gap between the inner and outer containers, with it having a neck and a stopper, which transfer the heat under atmospheric pressure, slowly but surely.
In space, assuming what we are told about it...there would be none of this, so people can harp on about coolants and heat exchanges and anything else....but it requires water (and plenty of it) that can be cooled and ejected...No silly back pack battery is going to aid astronauts in space or on the so called moon.

5: If the moon is lit up like a beacon from our point of view, then it should be lit up like a beacon from the moon walkers view, or to put it simpler...they should have been settling into the moon dust as black charcoal along with their melted aluminium heap of crap they called a lunar lander.

6:The camera's they supposedly took with them, had no super special film, yet somehow it worked perfectly with no heat or cold effects of supposed minus 250 or plus 250 in the shade or light, respectively.

7. They say the rocket doesn't need atmosphere to work and claim that the rocket pushes ITSELF from inside and the same thing when landing on the moon...saying that it all works in a combustion chamber and that's why it works in a so called vacuum...yet to steer it side by side, it supposedly had little compressed  air retro boosters or some baloney...yet how did this combust in a chamber to keep the craft from wobbling?
Not only that but to move to the side in one direction, it had to use the retro thrusters on one side only, which means, the pile of crap craft would simply tip over.
I've seen the arguments from the super scientists on here who try their best to argue against it....It makes me smile, because they do try...and try hard, too.

8.The amount of photos taken on all the missions, would be impossible when you consider all what they had to do in between it all...not to mention the bozo's driving about in stupid moon buggies.

9: When you have a pressurised space suit in a so called near vacuum, there is nothing and I mean nothing pushing back onto that space suit...NOTHING...there is no balance, which means the astronauts would have simply inflated like big space hoppers before their suits exploded with the dead astronauts suffering the same fate as all their cells simply expand.

10: When you are in a swimming pool and you try to run...you find that it's not as easy as running through air...being in the water makes you look like you're running in slow motion, where as running against air, you naturally move quite well....yet in this so called vacuum...the clowns of the time who first done the pretend space walks in a training pool, had to keep up the same slow motion of all missions, even on the moon, because that's how they depicted it to the gullible people...who swallowed it, hook, line and sinker...even to this day.
For all you right thinking people...have a serious think about running against super low air resistance and you will find that you wouldn't be going in slow motion, you would be like a frightened mouse running away from a cat.
Don't believe me?
Well have a think about the arguments with the coin and the feather in a vacuum chamber and see how fast the FEATHER falls....pretty fast eh?...nearly as fast as the coin.
Well that's what would be happening on the so called moon if it was what they say it all is.
If you jumped up, you would jump much higher than on earth, but your landing would require a team of astronaut paramedics to quickly rush you back to earth by commandmodulance to have all your leg bones pinned back together after they snap in x amount of places.

I could spend all night going on and on and on... I could mention shadows, stars, fluttering flags, tin foil jalopy craft and so on and so on and so on...but they are argued to death the most, even though they are very pertinent...it just seems like urinating against the wind with the apologists.

I'm fairly certain this post will be jumped on by the super debunkers...but all I say to those who are watching , who have some kind of open mind.....have a serious think about how they are laughing at you for being as gullible as you are in believing all this tripe.
They are getting so smug now that they will come up with more ridiculous claims in the not too distant future and it's already started with this mars rover and this sudden wake up of a probe that's apparently half a billion miles into space ready to piggy back an asteroid or something like that. But that's another silly story.

So there you have it: all you rational people can add to it at your leisure, if you so wish. All the irrationals can argue the hell out of what I've said but you know I'm right.

There's answers to all of those points but you wouldn't accept any of them except the one to point 8 since they all involve other things you think are rubbish (gravity and the like, incidentally you say a feather falls pretty fast in a low pressure environment, isn't that directly contrary to your denpressure theory?).

That being so there's no point discussing it with you but if anyone else has specific questions on the moon landing I'm pretty sure I could answer most of them.

No they don't. They don't need it for combustion or for pushing against, as I believe you have stated in previous threads. The rocket is propelled by the action of the exhaust gases exiting the combustion chamber causing the rocket to move in the opposite direction in reaction.

Quote
2: The pressurised oxygen tanks that propel the ignited fuel out, would be rendered useless in short order as they reached a certain height due to serious expansion, blowing the rocket into smithereens.

No, because we are able to build rockets of material that can withstand it. Just like we can build submersibles that stand the compressive force deep oceans.

Quote
3.So called astronauts would not survive the supposed 21,000? miles per hour vertical speed that's supposedly needed to escape the atmosphere.

Incorrect. Speed does not kill you, acceleration can. The space shuttle astronauts are said to have experienced a spike 3g of force against them in the moment of launch, 2g from the rocket acceleration and 1g from Earth's gravity. That is not enough to make a fit human white out, let alone former military jet pilots.

My laptop processor is prevented from overheating by exchanging heat with a copper heat sink which exchanges heat with a copper heatsink  it is connected to. The heatsink exchanges heat with the air blown past it. The last stage may have a some water vapour in it, but it is certainly not required.

123ºC isn't enough to melt aluminium. Fire proximity suits providing protection against radiant temperatures of upward of 260ºC. Fire entry suits are rated for prolonged use at radiant temperatures of over to 800ºC. These suits have been around in various forms since the 30's.

6:The camera's they supposedly took with them, had no super special film, yet somehow it worked perfectly with no heat or cold effects of supposed minus 250 or plus 250 in the shade or light, respectively.

The film, like the astronauts, were suitable protected.

I've seen the arguments from the super scientists on here who try their best to argue against it....It makes me smile, because they do try...and try hard, too.

Well they didn't use compressed air. They did, however, use monomethylhydrazine (MMH) with nitrogen tetroxide as the oxidizer. MMH is hypergolic meaning that when it and the oxidizer are mixed, they spontaneously ignite.

The craft would only tip over if the thrust from the RCS units was out of alignment with the centre of mass of the craft.

For all you right thinking people...have a serious think about running against super low air resistance and you will find that you wouldn't be going in slow motion, you would be like a frightened mouse running away from a cat.
Don't believe me?
Well have a think about the arguments with the coin and the feather in a vacuum chamber and see how fast the FEATHER falls....pretty fast eh?...nearly as fast as the coin.
Well that's what would be happening on the so called moon if it was what they say it all is.
If you jumped up, you would jump much higher than on earth, but your landing would require a team of astronaut paramedics to quickly rush you back to earth by commandmodulance to have all your leg bones pinned back together after they snap in x amount of places.

What training was to give the sense of weightlessness not to simulate being in a vacumn. It also did train the astronauts to make considered, slow movements rather than flapping around like a frightened mouse.

So you don't jump that high. Also, less gravity on the Moon than on Earth so not falling as fast as that feather and coin you saw falling on Earth.

Not that I think you'll respond without your usual name-calling to this but:

I'll tell you why they're fake and it's not a case of me just going along with conspiracy theorists. For me, this is a conspiracy that has become fact. It's a conspiracy fact in my honest opinion for many reasons.

1: Rockets  need atmosphere to work, regardless of you lot believing otherwise. They cannot operate in the upper atmosphere never mind what you people think space is, which is supposedly a vacuum...BUT...it has SCATTERED particles, we are told to believe.

No they don't. They don't need it for combustion or for pushing against, as I believe you have stated in previous threads. The rocket is propelled by the action of the exhaust gases exiting the combustion chamber causing the rocket to move in the opposite direction in reaction.

Quote
2: The pressurised oxygen tanks that propel the ignited fuel out, would be rendered useless in short order as they reached a certain height due to serious expansion, blowing the rocket into smithereens.

No, because we are able to build rockets of material that can withstand it. Just like we can build submersibles that stand the compressive force deep oceans.

Quote
3.So called astronauts would not survive the supposed 21,000? miles per hour vertical speed that's supposedly needed to escape the atmosphere.

Incorrect. Speed does not kill you, acceleration can. The space shuttle astronauts are said to have experienced a spike 3g of force against them in the moment of launch, 2g from the rocket acceleration and 1g from Earth's gravity. That is not enough to make a fit human white out, let alone former military jet pilots.

Quote
4. A vacuum flask with only partially evacuated air, keeps your coffee piping hot or cold, depending on what's used. It only loses heat or becomes room temperature, because it's not a full separation gap between the inner and outer containers, with it having a neck and a stopper, which transfer the heat under atmospheric pressure, slowly but surely.
In space, assuming what we are told about it...there would be none of this, so people can harp on about coolants and heat exchanges and anything else....but it requires water (and plenty of it) that can be cooled and ejected...No silly back pack battery is going to aid astronauts in space or on the so called moon.

My laptop processor is prevented from overheating by exchanging heat with a copper heat sink which exchanges heat with a copper heatsink  it is connected to. The heatsink exchanges heat with the air blown past it. The last stage may have a some water vapour in it, but it is certainly not required.

Quote
5: If the moon is lit up like a beacon from our point of view, then it should be lit up like a beacon from the moon walkers view, or to put it simpler...they should have been settling into the moon dust as black charcoal along with their melted aluminium heap of crap they called a lunar lander.

123ºC isn't enough to melt aluminium. Fire proximity suits providing protection against radiant temperatures of upward of 260ºC. Fire entry suits are rated for prolonged use at radiant temperatures of over to 800ºC. These suits have been around in various forms since the 30's.

Quote
6:The camera's they supposedly took with them, had no super special film, yet somehow it worked perfectly with no heat or cold effects of supposed minus 250 or plus 250 in the shade or light, respectively.

The film, like the astronauts, were suitable protected.

My Additional thoughts to your response.

1: Outer Space is not a Vaccum but merely a low Pressure Environment.

2: The Farther you get out in space the less force is applied to you as on Earth it's less in the Heavens.

3: Yep

4: Space is not a Vaccum but Heat Changes are throttled both directions so it would actually take more time to overheat in space, this also explains why the Astronauts didn't need Air Conditioning or Heating on the Moon as heat and cold conservation is actually much stronger in space since it doesn't have a strong pressurized atmosphere to work against you. (But Space is a Weak Atmosphere definitely not a Vacuume)

5: Heat Absorption is much slower on the Moon, it would probably take 300F on the Moon to equal 50F on Earth.

6: The Film didn't even need protection as the Moon radiation is actually less strong then Earths everyday radiation.

7: Space is not a Vacuum and backthrust will actually move you FASTER then on Earth due to less air resistance (and more electrical conductivity)

8: Plus the Astronauts didn't even take most of the photos as the Cameras were linked to mission control with wide lens and equiped with atomatic focusing and editing systems, so mission control actually was responsable for taking most of the photos.

9: Or Space is not a Vacuum and therefore there was no need to protect their suits from Radiation or Heat or Cold.

10: Astronauts probably can't move very well with their space suits as they seemed quite combersome and weighed about 300lbs which even if you adjust for gravity 300lbs in a 1/6th force environment means even though your suit weighs now 50lbs your 150lbs turns to only 25lbs so your still moving twice your body weight around which means you are still heavily encombered due to the massive bulk of that which you are carrying.

It's pretty obvious by now that sceptimatic's comprehension of even basic geophysics and astrophysics is very limited, and I'd guess that he never studied physics and chemistry, electromagnetism, astronomy, etc at school.

He's even fallen for the old "fluttering flag" misconception (and yes; flags do in fact flutter longer in a vacuum than in air).

Exactly. Not much of an atmosphere means the flag could not be blowing in the wind. And more likely it is swinging like a pendulum with little air resistance.  So your post is great for supporting all the moon landing evidence. Good job.

Yea, however it also means space is not a Vacuum. Outer Space is Full of Oxygen but it's in the form of ROR. Therefore in outer space Oxygen is always present to burn. (It wouldn't be nearly dense enough for humans to breathe though)

Actually, what little gas exists in outer space is mostly hydrogen.  The lunar "atmosphere", on the other hand...
Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_the_Moon#Composition
The average daytime abundances of the elements known to be present in the lunar atmosphere, in atoms per cubic centimeter, are as follows:
Argon: 40,000
Helium: 2,000-40,000
Sodium: 70
Potassium: 17
Hydrogen: fewer than 17

There is an extremely tenuous (it's less than one hundredth trillionth of the density of Earths at sea level) atmosphere on the moon. That's so thin that it is effectively a vacuum.

Only Sculelos claims there is an atmosphere in space. There are traces of gas so anybody, RE or FE, who claims that it is a perfect vacuum is wrong.

All this 6.22 x10 sup is fine.
The problem is, it means jack ship unless there is a method to see and measure whatever it all is.

Oh and before you say it, like, " oh you don't understand grade school science" , lol, which is what's normally used, because you people, as kids all miraculously studied all this stuff when you were at school.

Okay... you asked for it...

One mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters (dm3) at STP, and occupies 24.45 litres at SATP (Standard Ambient Temperature and Pressure = 273K and 1 atm or 101.325 kPa). This volume is often referred to as the molar volume of an ideal gas.

Put another way "the principle that equal volumes of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. Thus, the molar volume of all ideal gases at 0°C and a pressure of 1 atm. is 22.4 litres"

Avogadro's Number is one of the fundamental constants of chemistry. It permits calculation of the amount of pure substance (mole), the basis of stoichiometry (the quantitative relationship between reactants and products). It also makes possible determination of how much heavier a simple molecule of one gas is than that of another, as a result the relative molecular weights of gases can be ascertained by comparing the weights of equal volumes.

Avogadro's Number (conventionally represented by N' in chemical calculations) is now considered to be the number of atoms present in 12g of the carbon-12 isotope (one mole of carbon 12) and can be applied to any type of chemical entity.

People like Humble_Scientist never let the facts get in the way of a good story.    ;D

Conspiracy theorists are far to eager to see errors where there are none, and often trip themselves up in their eagerness to display their superior powers of observation and logic.  Even without knowing the back-story to these screen grabs, it's more than obvious they're all from different actual missions, dry runs, or equipment testing.

Humble clearly doesn't understand what 'editing' is..

in fact, he seems to struggle with the most rudimentary of concepts... a very strange unit he is indeed.
