Moon landing

[northwind]

Hmm, can't play the flag waving video, it's in .ram and WMP doesn't play it any more. But every other video of the flag "waving" I've ever seen was taken either as or just after it was moved, so it was still wobbling about. In near-vacuum, something like a flag on a springy pole would wave around for longer than it would here.

I like when NASA occasionally turn aroundand say "Those pictures look touched up, because we touched them up. They didn't look too good." The conspiracy theorists hate that.

I see they're still talking crap about Van Allen belts as well... They did their research on that by reading Fantastic Four comics.

When all this came out i'm sure i heard something about japan or china was going to send a probe or a man up to look at the moon and find out if ther had been there, if they have been there there should still be boots prints flags..oh and a sodding great 4x4 moon rover thing..


If not just point hubel at it it must be able to see something.

Think Hubble's a bit longsighted for that... But maybe a high-level earthbound telescope could do the same? Of course, if it was a US one then that'd obviously already be a member of the dark cabal...

I think there had been so much money wasted on space exploration, that the lying yanks had to produce some evidence.

I reckon the Russians were the first ones up there when their lada engined space rocket broke down

area 51, and they so stupid they probably still got the film set and props there somewhere

All wrong. All they'd find is mice. Everyone knows the moon's made of cheese.

bugger i didnt think of that, i forgot when i went on holiday there last year the hotal was running wild with them. All i remember was tom hanks landing on my roof

And one more thing if neil armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon, then who was it that took the photo of him coming down the steps putting the "first" foot on the moon?

Ahhhhhh there little space suits arreeee soooo cccuuutttiieeee woooouuttiiieee

Ahem!

I hate all this multiple light source stuff.

Wouldnt the earth reflecting the suns light be a light source, just as the moon reflecting the suns light provides a light source for us

They always say "Supposed to be from a single light source" but NASA never actually claims that... The lander, rover and individual suits all carried lights after all.
