Soviet Light
thinking people and the lunar landing?
I've been asked to explain why i said thinking people will question ,doubt or disbelieve that we landed on the moon in 1969. 1) motive ; in the heat of the cold war the u.s. was desperate to score p.r. wins over the communist soviets. 2)indirect proof ; there is a ton ,read the whistleblowers. evidence includes same background pictures, artifical lighting, wind, and a host of other things 3) neal armstrong has never done public interviews to this day. he is a recluse. when asked about all the attention he was getting he replied "i don't deserve it". 4) precedent; why would have a manned walk on the moon in the 60s and not have a manned walk on mars almost 40 years later!!!!! It dosen't make since unless.... 5 in conclusion; blindly believing our government when it doesn't add up certaintly fits the criteria of not thinking for yourself.
Thinking people would realize that fraud on such a scale is not possible.
Thousands witnessed the liftoff of each and every launch in the space program. So where did those astronauts go for 12 days? Are you saying we don't have the capability to put a satellite in orbit? Are you saying we don't have the capability to put a human being in orbit? Are you saying we don't have the capability to put a human being in high orbit? Because the Moon is just a high orbit. Once you're in low orbit, you've already used 70% of the energy you need to go to the Moon.
The cost of faking a moon landing would be greater than the cost of going to the moon. Consider that the lunar rovers carried TV cameras for *miles* across the lunar surface, photographing everything as they went and sending it back to Earth in real-time (minus the 2-second delay for light-travel time). If it were faked, how big would such a stage have to be? And remember, it's got to be held in a vacuum. (Otherwise, David Scott's hammer-and-feather experiment on Apollo 15 would have failed.) And three of the later missions left cameras running on the surface as the lunar module lifted off -- same familiar background of hills, with a spacecraft flying upward as far as the eye can see. And speaking of David Scott's hammer-and-feather experiment, here's a little test for you: time the fall, and determine the rate of acceleration (and therefore the surface gravity) under which it was filmed.
