Apollo 11 Moon Landing Revisited: Hoax ~vs~ Debunk

[Vixen]

And if "the experts in camera film", who NASA were working with, could do this, why wouldn't NASA know anything about it?

Maybe they didn't need to adapt the film that much if it wasn't being done on the Moon anyway.

 

[threadworm]

Now we are getting somewhere. If TETRA was not used to transmit TV from the Moon, then it follows those images weren't coming from the Moon.

We are already there. You have yet to set off.

TV was transmitted from the moon, by people and equipment on the moon.

 

[Darat]

Surely Armstrong and Aldrin could see where the Moon was?

I believe they followed the cow.

 

[Vixen]

I don't know why everyone is confused. It's simply a matter of travelling 250,000K miles in your thin-walled aluminium capsule, setting up your dusty old Hasselblad in the pitch black of a crater on the side of the Moon that has never had any sunlight, move the gearr stick around a little bit to adjust the settings provided by the Ektachrome bods for the magnitude of your camera lens, and have the photos relayed to earth on a non-GEO positioned satellite.

Kemo sabe?

Many a true word...

Actually Armstrong moved his joystick (settle down at the back) to avoid landing in a crater, the engine having been switched off, and Buzz reading out the altitudes, as though landing a fighter jet.

No wonder it's every little kiddies' dream.

 

[catsmate]

Why did you need to Google something so fundamental to an argument you have been making for over two months?

Because she's never actually used a camera.

 

[wollery]

Vixen, is the brightness of stars always measured in magnitudes?

 

[catsmate]

That is not the correct logic.

Wrong.

<Snippage of gibberish>

Even by your low standards this is a pathetic attempt at deflection.

 

[Darat]

Conspiracy theorists object that it would be too hard/impossible to determine where the positions of the moon, sun and planets would be relative to the celestial sphere at a certain time simply because they don't personally know how to do it, and the idea that anyone else knows how to competently do something that they don't is anathema to them.

Totally impossible to have calculated that level of information before modern computers!

Do you know what would have happened to the LM if the engine had been switched off before Armstrong tried to manoeuvre it?

 

[catsmate]

But the Kodak/Ektachrome bods knew in advance where the photography was to take place

Irrelevant.

Your logic is rather like saying a bunch of soldiers were unable to reverse their tank because it didn't have a 'reverse' gear.

No. This is further stupid attempts at deflection.

So, whose is responsible for that?

Oh good grief....

 

[catsmate]

Ha ha ha As if Ektachrome wasn't one of the most popular camera film amongst the public. Hence, why hobbyists chose Ilford, the photographer's film of choice. (Rather like the real ale bods and CAMRA [geddit? See what I did there.])

Further puerile attempts at deflection.

 

[Mojo]

Maybe they didn't need to adapt the film that much if it wasn't being done on the Moon anyway.

Why would they need to "adapt" it? Do you think taking photos in constant sunlight using 160 ASA film presents some sort of problem?

 

[catsmate]

But if you can make an uneducated guess 'it is 30% brighter', why couldn't the experts in camera film?

Strawman.

 

[catsmate]

Stop bringing in your ubiquitous explains-all radio waves.

Strawman.

Only to extremely stupid people.

 

[Andy_Ross]

What, precisely, didn't they know?

Remember, things can only be looked at in isolation.

All the previous work NASA did on photography and experimenting etc with the Mercury and Gemini missions, Surveyor landers, Ranger 7 lander and the Lunar Orbiter Survey missions don't count.
Apollo has to be looked at in isolation.

No, more of @Vixen's childish nonsense.

"Hold it, we're heading for a crater. Better turn off the engine so we can manoeuver."

 

[turingtest]

So, now that we are all on the same page, tell us which satellite was used to beam TV images to earth, and whilst you are busy, the logistical steps by which to set it up for that exact time and place.

JFC. Absolutely hopeless...

 

[Axxman300]

Buzz reading out the altitudes, as though landing a fighter jet.

Really? Fighter pilots call out the altitude to one another during landing? This would be news to fighter pilots. Military helicopter crews do this as their rotorblades kick up dust, and an extra pair of eyes comes in handy. Coincidentally, the lunar surface kicks up dust from the rocket engine of the LM during landing, the ALL the Apollo crews trained to do this.

This is why they don't let stupid people into the astronaut program.
