I stated this the other day on the site formally known as TDW.
Imagine you are at a friends house hanging out one night and their 4 year old son comes running down the stairs crying about the Boogie Man being under his bed.
Now normally you would expect your friend and his wife to console the child telling him there is no such thing as the Boogie Man.
Now imagine instead of consoling the child the mom grabs some lighter fluid and the dad grabs a gun. They run upstairs light the bed on fire and shoot 10 rounds in to it. That would make most wonder what the hell do they know about the Boogie Man that I do not.
Now this is what I am seeing form the left on Q. They are lighting the bed and shooting over and over.
Either didn't happen or classified things happened. Either way, the photos/the videos we have from apollo 11 were not taken on the moon.
The thrusters are not running/burning fuel during the entire trip. Only need thrusters to get going to a set speed and then cut them off for 99.9% of the trip. The Saturn V rocket launched into orbit and then started the journey to the moon before detaching. The trip to the moon took 3 days without any fuel being burned during that time. The Columbia command module was the only part to return from the moon and required very little fuel to get to speed heading to earth.
So, you can fire rockets in a vacuum? Interesting. And you can also propel in one? More interesting.
Yes. The burning fuel / expanding gas provides the propulsion in the opposite direction the rocket travels.
Also, there’s no drag (wind resistance) in a vacuum like there is when flying through the atmosphere.
There was a strong motivation to fake the moon landing from a political standpoint given Gagarin going into space (presumably) for the soviets.
Faking it is much cheaper and less risky than actually going there. Why wouldn't you?
People weren't thinking critically I guess. It was just too exciting!
But they took Scoobie Doo's beach buggy to the moon! I saw it!
I swear, they do shit just to laugh at how dumb we are.
Yes, multiple people from NASA confirming we cannot get through Van Allen Belt was the thing for me. Conferences from Apollo missions were as celebratory as Biden inauguaration, both fake.
Why hasn't China gone there yet? They seem to like to copy everything else.
And it should be much easier today with modern tech, right?
Exactly, and the China's CGI's from space missions are beyond ridiculous, they don't even care that they don't have Hollywood type artists on their payroll, their people can't question anything anyway. Don't start me on that telemetry data that NASA taped over, so they can't go back there as they claim, probably honest mistake by some intern, lol.
I've seen at least two engineers said that, one was the young one explaining the purpose of the new ORION project to test how to finally get through Van Allen Belt as we couldn't do that before. Look it up, there are many interesting movies like that Apollo mission faking view from the shuttle to look like a globe, not to mention the ridiculously fake videos from ISS Space Station, I'm not following that crap anymore as it was entertaining but pointless.
