Merged Discussion of the moon landing "hoax"

Status
Not open for further replies.
Obviously they secretly launched hundreds of satellites without anyone noticing. Those satellites were used to transmit the signals from appropriate positions while Neil, Buzz and Mike were acting everything out at Area 51.

That's far too complicated. Obviously, they landed a two man team on the moon to relay the dialogue from actors Aldrin and Armstrong, who were performing on the film set. It's the only logical conclusion.
 
One of the posters on AH decided to work out how much fuel it would take to keep a station-keeping satellite in front of the moon. Turned out it is twice the mass of the earth! :jaw-dropp

ETA: I have been corrected by the poster that worked it out.

It wasn't twice, it was 2 x 1026 times the mass of the Earth! :jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp:jaw-dropp

Given that one (Jarrah White, if I recall correctly) thinks a "polar orbit" means "circling at high latitudes" (i.e. always over the Pole), that is entirely true.

ETA: with respect to the "lunarsynchronous" orbit. This thread moves too fast at times.
 
I've changed my mind. I don't think we went to the moon. As proof, I offer this youtube video. I really think you should watch it. Its rather good...
 
And don't just speculate how they could have been faked; provide evidence they were faked. And anomaly hunting doesn't count as evidence.
 
Huh?

:confused:

Are your posts supposed to make any sense?

When a religous guy responded to Richard's idea how some science taught back in his school days could now be laughed at, Richard was very defensive in asking such as ?

The Religious said about the Moon coming from the Earth's Ocean.......... Dawkins says it's a strong theory...

So if the Moon came from the Earth,then the Moon Rocks are really Earth Rocks, which means NASA could has easily got the rocks from Earth and claimed them to came from the Moon. That's Show Biz

You have no clue about geology do you? Even IF the Moon was once part of Earth, every part of it was since in a molten state. Every part then cooled in a 1/6 G, vacuum, waterless environment. Every part was subject to billions of years of cosmic ray bombardment. Any geologist worth anything would be able to tell the difference between an Earth rock and a Moon rock. They are smarter than you think.

It's almost funny that you have such a limited understanding of the moon, its origins, and moon rocks recently brought back to earth, and that you still pretend that you know anything about this.

I suggest you keep reading up on it. There's quite a bit you still don't understand.

So the Moon Rocks only come from the Moon? Try telling Mr Dawkins that.


Yes, Moon rocks only come from the Moon (amazingly enough).

As to the claim implicit in your statement:

Jay Windley said:
Meteorites from the lunar surface do exist, and Antarctica is a good place to find them. But they are very hard to find. Apollo returned 850 lbs. (380 kg) of material. But as of the late 1990s, geologists had found only 19 such specimens. And this is the best effort of the entire international geology community. It's difficult to believe that NASA could recover so much more material in the decade during which the hoax was allegedly executed. Consider also that Antarctica was first identified as a haven for meteorites in 1969, by Japanese scientists. That makes it hard to argue that von Braun went there in 1967 to find specimens to pass off as surface samples. It also makes it hard for NASA to have collected enough samples for Apollo 11 and 12 and prepare them in such a short period of time.

Finally, meteorites are very different in appearance from the Apollo lunar samples. Samples brought back from the moon have very small pits on the surface. These so-called "zap pits" are caused by micrometeoroid impacts and are generally only visible under a microscope. But they are completely absent from recovered lunar meteorites because the outer layers have been burned away by passage through the earth's atmosphere.

There are other surface features particular to moon rocks. The outer layer is rich in helium-3, an isotope difficult and expensive to acquire on earth. It also shows interaction with the solar wind, which contains exotic elements not found on earth. If the outer layer of the meteorite is chipped off to remove the evidence of passage through earth's atmosphere, all the rich evidence of presence on the lunar surface is lost too.

ETA: I see from your follow-up that I was giving you too much credit; I assumed that you were implying that lunar meteorites recovered on earth could have been used as bogus lunar samples.

Same source as above:

Jay Windley said:
According to physicist J. R. Keller, melting a composite mineral and allowing it to solidify sets up convection patterns in the molten mix and the resulting pattern is preserved in the solid where it can be examined. Convection is a function of gravity, and lunar rocks exhibit convection patterns that were obviously produced in the much less lunar gravity.
