Did Man really land to the Moon?????

[lpearson]

Have been looking into this lately. Many countries believe that we faked the moon landing in the late 1960's? What do you think? :-{}



Does anyone know about the Van Allen Radiation Belt around the earth about 300-500 miles out? Why is it that no "maned" space craft ever goes beyond this limit?

It would be easier to prove that we were there than to prove that we wern't in my opinon.



Of course, if you believe the earth is flat, you would have to believe that it was all fake.

Isaiah 40:21-23; written over 2715 years ago settled that debate, some never looked into that either.



"Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity. "



Check out the Van Allen Belt, and our great and amazing technology around 1967-1969.

Thats an awfull lot of money for nothing. Makes me wonder where the money went?

Every penney of it stayed right here on the 3rd rock from the Sun.

I remember hearing stuff about this conspiracy theory. One point that kept being brought up was: "Why do all the 'photos' from the moon never show the sun?"



I don't believe that it was faked, but cannot 'splain why one does not see the sun in any background of moon shots.

I believe that Walt Disney did the lunar landings... and that's why he named his dog Pluto.

I watched a TV show the other day on this very thing (sorry - can't remember what channel it was on). The went over all of the theories presented by conspiracy theorists as to why it was faked and showed how they were all false. It was a very interesting show to watch. The most interesting part of it was a research facility that is to this day boucing lasers off of mirrors that were put in place up there to judge movement of the moons surface. The lead researcher there said that noone has ever come to ask them about it until now. They went over the shadow theory, the waving flag, the lack of moved rocks (there were some), the lack of stars (photography), etc. All the theories were debunked.

I recently purchased a film about this from a company in England. They go over the details of the original photos that NASA put out.



The Van Allen Radiation Belt really bothers me. According to what I found out is that no living thing can pass through it alive. How did we do it with the primitave space craft that we shot up? :-{} Also the shadows that converge at different angles, as if different photo lamps were used.



Real interesting to look back and see these, especially since our tech. has increased so much. Kind of like watching a movie from the 60's and compairing it to how they make movies today.



There are no stars seen in any of the photos on the moon, let alone the sun.



The flag moves all by itself as if a breeze is blowing it. Problem is there is no atmosphere on the moon. How does that happen?



The thing that caused my wife the most concern was the astronauts press conference on their return. They all hung their heads and were generally sedate. The reporters were very enthusiastic and excited at the prospect of men actually on the moon. The responses from the astronauts was unsure and unexcited.



My wife said that if anyone had done what they had, which in the history of man would have been a monumental feat they would have been telling their adventures with excitement and joy. All of them acted like they could care less and really didn't want to be there.



A year or so ago, Buz Aldrin was asked by a man in California, if he had really walked on the moon. Buz's response wasn't "Yes, you just can't imagine the experience and feeling of what it was like"--------------No he hit the guy with a closed fist. --------------it made the news, maybe some of you remember. Interesting response don't you think?



This seems to be a sore spot with Americans, because of National Pride I think. As we are the only ones to have done it. :-{}



A common phrase is "If we can land a man on the Moon, then we can ??????"



Amazing that the Russians who were so far ahead of us in the space race at that time were never able to go to the moon, and no one else has been able to either.

I would love to see how they disproved these items. Maybe if you can remember what network they may have something in the archives.

And the other day I got an e-mail telling me about the "white UN" aircraft that are flying all over the US spraying us with toxins to make us all sick so the UN can take over the country---------

and don't forget those black choppers... ... ...



There is a wierd yarn where ever you turn. You should have heard some of the "true" storys I heard doing mental hearings!!!!,

The Van Allen radiation Belt... explained here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Allen_radiation_belt



Space flight is designed to not go through the center or strongest part which encircles the equator. "Conspiracy theorists have argued that space travel to the moon is impossible because the Van Allen radiation would kill or incapacitate an astronaut who made the trip. In practice, even at the peak of the belts, one could live for several months without receiving a lethal dose, and launch sites and paths are chosen not to pass through said peak. "

I cant belive I'm hearing this from smart independant thinking diesel heads.

Another response from NASA



BTW the Black Helio's are true..... :-laf

"The body of physical evidence that humans did walk on the Moon is simply overwhelming. "



"Fox should stick to making cartoons," agreed Marc Norman. "I'm a big fan of The Simpsons!"

When Apollo Mission Astronaut Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon, he not only gave his famous "One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Mankind" statement, but followed it by several remarks - usual com traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control. Before he re-entered the lander, he made the enigmatic remark "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky. "

Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning some rival Soviet Cosmonaut; however, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in either the Russian or American space programs. Over the years, many people have questioned him as to what the "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky" statement meant. On July 5, in Tampa Bay, FL, while answering questions following a speech, a reporter brought up the 26 year old question to Armstrong. He finally responded. It seems that Mr. Gorsky had died and so Armstrong felt he could answer the question. When he was a kid, Neil was playing baseball with his brother in the backyard. His brother hit a fly ball, which landed in front of his neighbors' bedroom window. The neighbors were Mr. and Mrs. Gorksy. As he leaned down to pick up the ball, he heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr. Gorsky, "Oral sex? Oral sex you want? You'll get oral sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!"

They spoke with Van Allen himself and he said that it annoys him that his theory is used to try to disprove this - that limited exposure wasn't an issue

There are no stars seen in any of the photos on the moon, let alone the sun.

The amount of light on the bright side of the sun and the exposure time of the film made it impossible to capture stars. The astronauts themselves said that they didn't see stars on the surface of the moon - remember they were on the bright side of the moon. In this show they went out to the desert and did a simulation and took pictures with the same cameras used and where you could easily see the stars on the video and there were no visible stars on the prints.

The flag moves all by itself as if a breeze is blowing it. Problem is there is no atmosphere on the moon. How does that happen?

The flag was on the end of a long pole and it was moving when they would move the pole. The spring in the pole would make it move for a short period of time afterwards because of the lack of gravity and of air resistance to slow it down.



Just some of the things on that show. They took apart every one of the theories and disproved them - literally every single one.

I grew up near the Johnson Space Center south of Houston. I went to school with a bunch of the astronauts kids. My father was one of the guys that taught Geology to the guys that walked on the Moon along with the backup crews who never got there. He spent many hours with them during this time. He later worked in the Lunar Recieving Lab where they studied the rock samples brought back.



All I can say is, if it was all faked, they sure fooled a lot of folks.

 

[snowracer69]

ummm... . if we never got to the moon, what's all this rocket science stuff they keep trying to teach me at school?



Some of y'all are sayin' that the folks I know who worked on the original space programs are STILL lying about it? WOW... I have willpower, but NOTHING like that!
