So the ESA probe SMART-1 crashed into the moon right on schedual.  The explosion was to dim to see with the naked eye.  But it was picked up by Amature astronomers all over the western hemisphere.

To the FE'ers who belive that the entire space program is a fake, how do you account for this?

They hit the moon with a rocket.  How is that proof of the space program?

TheEngineer, Read your own FAQ:

"NASA does not send rockets into space, they instead spend the money on developing advanced computers and imaging software instead"

crashing an orbiter into the moon should be proof that the above statement is not correct.

CrimsonKing, think very carefully about what your implying here.

I brought SMART-1 to the forum's attention about 12 hours before it crashed.  I think I'm right in saying that no one here would have known about this otherwise.

If NASA/ESA had planned SMART-1 just to discredit this forum, they would have had to of known that I would post it here.  You are indirectly accusing me of being part of the conspiracy.

Not only that, but I didn't learn about SMART-1 from a NASA source, rather I learned about it from an independant science blog.  That means they would of had to manuver a non NASA writer to post about it on his blog which I don't cite all that often.  Something tells me they wouldn't have spent so much money perpetrating the hoax on the incrediblly small chance that it actually made it to this forum.

What's the big deal anyway?  They crashed a probe into the moon.  When they land one there, I will be mildly exited.

The Engineer, I am curious as to how they could prove to you that they have successfully landed there when/if they do.  Is there anything that could be done that would prove to you without a doubt that they have landed there?

have NASA bring him along would be good I'm sure


Oh and I realize the implications of what I said, the comment was made in jest, but you have to realize that it really wouldnt be too hard to send something to crash into the moon, just need a lot of rocketfuel and something somewhat explosive (to make things easier.)

Perhaps, there was no "crash" or possibly even a "probe". According to FE theory, the Moon emits the light reflected from the Earth. Therefore, an explosion on the surface of the Earth would have appeared on the surface of the Moon. That is how they could arrange the "collision" even without launching a rocket.

Yea, we know.  When they are technologically capable of landing on the moon, put out a press release.

Spike, please read the entire thread before posting about it.

I was using "fireworks" in it's metaphorical sense.

No, I don't actually mean that someone was conducting a late 4th of July celebration on the moon.

"Fireworks on the Moon" just made a better title than say "Probe crashes into Luna" or "Lights from the moon's surface."

TheEngineer you have not yet answered my question, how could they prove to you that they have landed on the moon.  It seems to be that it is impossible to entirely prove to you that they will land on the moon.

When the ESA lands on it I will believe that the ESA did it.  That is what we are talking about.

The thread starter made it out to be a huge deal.  THEY CRASHED INTO THE MOON.  Call me when they have figured out how to land on it, then I will be impressed.
