The "conspiracy proof"
« on: April 14, 2010, 12:29:23 PM »
so, going through http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=The+Conspiracy you would probably be convinced that there is a conspiracy right? /facepalm

http://blip.tv/file/3246084

so, lets take a look at that moonball that was "used for fake landings".  Notice the end videos of the real flight (or so they say it is). Notice the "string" that is somehow holding the object off its center of mass, or that other "strings" appear in the footage that seem to be there for no reason.  Notice the track that they claimed nasa used would not work to have that camera footage, the moonball is simply not large enough.

http://blip.tv/file/3246099

to someone who believes the conspiracy exists,  you could say that they did this.  however, to everyone else, you would say that the two surfaces have dont have many things in common.  One could make the argument that some earth surfaces look like moon surfaces, but that's nothing new.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3186616594425246748&q=what+happened+on+the+moon&total=51&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0#

this one is a little long and i havent gotten through all of it yet.

first thing though, a shuttle that can get as high as you can see at the speed seen, should be able to protect you from the radiation in the belts.  Also, since the radiation in the belts is mostly directional, the bottom of the shuttle should easily take care of that.  Same thing goes for the photography.  The photography can be protected by leaving it within the camera untill reaching earth.  Nobody in the missions took the photos out of the camera and look at it through the sun (that is direct radiation exposure as the other experimenter did in the video)

Also, When they attempt to say that the moon's surface is not reflective enough to light things, they show photos of rocks that are obviously uphill.  Then they show nasa's photos that were taken from concave surfaces, or downhill.  The moon's surface is simply not that uniform.

Ill get through the rest of the "proof" and post again later.  I've seen some of the mars ones and laughed to =)

The video regarding whether we could have gotten to the moon, ( and not died) due to Radiation - is a good point - but completely in vaild in terms of proof of a flat earth. It is based on the scientific knowledge we have of the sun, and the radiation belt, and general knowledge of Physics. If you are a flat earther, you could not claim the sun does such things - as they do not believe the sun is anything alike what it is claimed, nor do they believe that Physics works the way it is claimed to give evidence against AGAINST the possibility of these flights.

I am talking about this video http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3186616594425246748&q=what+happened+on+the+moon&total=51&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0#

Technically speaking, according to Flat Earthers, there is no Van Allen Belt.

One of my favorites- it was alos backed up with further testing by a Discovery Special... it pretty much killed a lot of the misconceptions and outright laughable theories concerning the "fake" moon landing.

The Russian are always a  card to be played in these debates - what possible reason could they have to go along with the US beating them in the Cold War when they had all the means, funds, and man power needed to disprove a fake landing. And what did the Russians do? Its pretty obvious.

If they do not believe in the Van Allen belt - how is this video then supportive of their theories ? I see that it could show the Moon Landing was a hoax - but it doesn't prove we COULDN'T do it now  ( albeit other things may prove that) - but they are using evidence they don't actually believe to exist. Is the point in posting that video to say "It couldn't have been done", or is it saying "Look at the lies fed to us here, how do you know everything else is not a lie?"

Also, if this were all faked - I would ask, yes, why didn't other countries get peeved by it ? They had the equivalent and or better techonology. Possibly a gag order with money involved ? And what is the purpose for all of this faked, is it for financial gain - or is it in an attempt to keep humanity blind to reality for Philosophical reasons ? ( Control of humanities thoughts and their influence on Government, etc)

I would have suggest that perhaps it is in the Governments interest to disprove the theories of a flat earth to hush a religious grouping - but in fact, the US Government is quite supportive of using Religion in its defence for many other things. I wonder if they just pick and choose.. "we can blow these people up for our freedom" ( ignoring that were taking away theirs) yet on the other hand, smishing the 'flat earth' idea that I think probably was in place for so long due to scripture, and also man simply not having comprehended things the way we attempt to now. So this means they can use Religion in  their defence, but Science as a control ( perhaps they believe God exists, and they fear this - or are Reptilians and don't want us to have faith in God, and instead 'bow down' to whatever they feed us ( or any other myriad of ideas out there)

Gosh it's all so detailed.

WTB the truth. PST.

there is a lot of radiation yes, but the spaceship sent,and the spacesuits the astronauts are in, are more than capable of handling that radiation.

The video attempts to proove its not by saying that the ship couldnt possibly be enough to protect them from a high amount of gamma radiation.  Fortunately, that type of radiation is not contained in the belts, and the exposure they get from space is similar to what we get on earth.

It certainly opens the possibility of them being real. It means there's no reason for it to be used to argue their fakeness.

I don't agree with you. I think it proves the possibility of them being real. I just don't believe in them so much as to say "Conclusively"

No, I just believe it brings the issue back to 'neutral'. I'm not flat out denying what you say - it doesn't prove they're real. I just think it makes it more likely that they are, that's all.

I don't argue for the sake of it, or because somebody disagrees with a major stance I have

And yet I never said anything in this thread with which you don't agree, but you chose to argue with me.  Interesting.

no. It's conclusive proof that the evidence for the hoax is not valid.

Have you ever seen the body of evidence in favor of the moon landing hoax?  The four or five things they were able to cover in that episode were conclusive proof of nothing but that those particular arguments weren't valid.  

And let's remember, the FE argument that the moon landings were a hoax consists of nothing more than the opinion that space travel is impossible.  I don't remember them even mentioning FE's beliefs in the Myth Busters episode.

And you have yet to provide any evidence that the moon landings were a hoax.  

When that becomes relevant in any way to the current discussion let me know.  ::)
