Apollo 11 Moon Landing Revisited: Hoax ~vs~ Debunk

To be fair, I think they just wanted All-American guys with good looks, named Bubba, Billy-Ray and Chuck.

No it's not. You obviously still can't understand what 'typographical' and 'erratum' mean.

I sent a message which did go out. I latter confirmed it was an erratum.

For the avoidance of doubt, the erratum was the term, "250,000K'.

Do you honestly think that NASA gave a crap whether the astronauts were keen amateur astronomers?

Do you have any idea what qualifications were required for the job in the 1960s?

Wasn't a penis part of the requirements?

When one goes for a job interview, good advice is to at least show interest and enthusiasm in your potential employer's core brand, mission and strategy.

The Apollo crews used celestial navigation, one of three systems to track their position/location in space. So guess what? They saw more than Venus.

Also, pilots tend to be enthusiastic about flying, and you obviously have no idea how competitive the astronaut program was.

 

[Axxman300]

Then if you know the conditions take the right tools.

Judging from the hundreds of photographs, and hours of film footage they took the right tools.

It was 1969, not 1976.

And yet here you are, almost two years after that post, still talking about people walking on the Moon in 1976:

Considering that the people she cribs from are conspiracy theorists, utter lunatics or both, that makes her ignorant posturing even more ridiculous.

Jutta Rabe is a respected investigative journalist. She worked for quality media such as SPEIGEL. A trained journalist is not a conspiracy theorist. Whilst few journalists these days go out and about to find stories, and instead rely on copy and paste from X and TikTok or even directly plagiarising other publications, together with relying on central news agencies, such as Reuters , ANSA, AP, etc., and 'stringers'...

Rubbish. Despite have it explained to you, you seem not to comprehend what 'erratum' actually means
Another item for the list of matters you don't understand.

 

[Jack by the hedge]

Vixen now knows that saying 'erratum' when she means 'error' is another way to annoy people. Into the tool bag it goes.

Early lunar morning outside the extreme temperatures of any other time. NB That s/read 28°F not °C, but nonetheless not outside a reasonable range.

What was 28°F?
Different objects and materials have different equilibrium temperatures.

 

[Jack by the hedge]

Meanwhile, Vixen will still not say that she understands the astronauts' cameras were set for daylight exposure.

She knows it, but she cannot acknowledge it. It would chip away at the foundations of her pretended doubt about the moon landings.

 

[Andy_Ross]

People go to film and photography school to learn all this stuff.

I did. I did a diploma at the Cleveland College Of Art.

 

[Andy_Ross]

Reminds me of that staff appraisal scene in The Office with Steve from Accounts reacting to every question with dumb nonchalance.

To be fair, I think they just wanted All-American guys with good looks, named Bubba, Billy-Ray and Chuck.

Armstrong was chosen because among other things he was an incredibly experienced test pilot.
Buzz Aldrin's doctoral thesis is titled “Line-of-Sight Guidance Techniques for Manned Orbital Rendezvous.”
He has the nickname 'Dr. Rendezvous.'

Astronomy wasn't a requirement apart from their training in celestial navigation.

Even this you get wrong.

And for exactly the same reason as Vizzini does.

The word you are looking for is Corrigendum.

The forum software (your posts’ production or publisher) was not in error - you were.

That's inconceivable!

You seem not to understand what constitutes a debate. 'Paris is the capital of France.' You can look up that fact on Google. Please see the topic title to get an idea of what the debate is about.

Clear now?

Oh yes, it is always very clear that you are deflecting.

And the facts of the moon landning, which you are arguing against, have been clear since 1969.

 

[EHocking]

No, my carelessly having written '250,000K' when I meant 250K, was a typographical error and therefore, correctly, an erratum.

My second husband was the Material Sciences Metallurgist.

So which one was the Astrophysicist? The Canadian one?

Incidentally, he was actually born the same month as the Moon landings.

Yeah, yeah, so was I. That had what, exactly, to do with the price of fish.

Not named after any of the astronauts, though.

Ah, tea in China i see.

You wouldn't know him; he went to another school.

What we are debating is whether the 'debunking' term is merited, versus the doubts expressed by others.

You are entitled to assume there is nothing to debate. I am not clear why you believe we should not be allowed to discuss it.

OK, let's discuss it. What equipment and camera settings would you use to simultaneously photograph sunlit objects and the stars?

Not sure what you are getting at but the only astrophysicist I can think of is a guy who was in my class who went on to teach/ research at Rutgers, or so he told me at a school reunion.

This was the boy who invented a homemade periscope to look up girls' skirts. Thankfully, the other boys shook their heads and he retreated.
