Not an ISS topic again....are their still people that cannot see through their ongoing fakery ?
On your
Chris Hadfield and NASA obsession, I do wonder why people too ignorant to understand how something is done feel the need to ridicule it.
So many members of the
Flat Earthism Religion seem to feel the need to do that all the time.
I did post this suggestion earlier, but I'll try again.
I cannot find any explanations for NASA's claims, "supported by scientific figures" because I cannot find any "claims".
So:
- Exactly what did NASA claim about this performance?
As far as I can see, NASA did not make any claims about that concert.
If you can give some valid claims, I can look into them. So, is there any evidence of any intent to deceive?
- So-called simultaneous performances are held on earth. Even here the least possible two-way communication delay between say, the UK and NZ (about 20,000 km each way), is close to 0.1 secs.
This delay is pure propagation delay on the optical fibre cables. The delay through repeaters would add to this.
If an internet connection (like Skype) were used the delay would be much greater.
- I don't know the details of actual communication delays with the I.S.S. but I have seen estimates as low as 0.25 secs
Though I am sure that in practice it would be considerably greater than that.
I have no direct knowledge of how it was done, but I can guess how it
might have have been done. Both performances could have been playing to copies of a
prerecorded "timing track" (backing track, if you like).
I know this sort of thing has been common practice for a long time and in pipe-organ/piano duets etc.
All that needs to be done then is for Chris Hadfield to be playing with enough lead time to cover any likely communication delays, then his contribution delayed locally to match the timing of the "Barenaked Ladies" live performance.
But, whether what I suggested above is how it was done or not, I certainly
"deny that NASA is into any form of deliberate fakery."
unless you can show evidence that
NASA actually made any claims that were misleading.
I don't care what the media says,
you must show evidence that NASA set out to mislead.
So why not just occasionally take those
NASAphobic blinkers that you wear and see what the
real world looks like.
