The Why Files and fake Moon landing

I think just the fact that Russia, being our main competitor for space travel, never landed a man on the moon makes it suspicious. 23 trips to the moon and no man landed on the surface. However..

All along, the Soviet moon program had suffered from a third problem—lack of money. Massive investments required to develop new ICBMs and nuclear weapons so that the Soviet military could achieve strategic parity with the United States siphoned funds away from the space program.

It seems that the overall goal was achieved regardless whether it was faked or not. 🤔

No government ever has lack of money. If short, they will tax or otherwise squeeze it out of the little people or create it out of thin air. Something else behind this. Just my opinion, not fact, as governments always have ridiculous spending in projects.

2001 is one of my favourites.

But there were a lot of obvious mistakes:

This is false; convection, conduction, radiation can transfer heat.

a reply to: GilmoreGouph

Is it?

I'll start you off with "convection":


www.britannica.com...


"convection, process by which heat is transferred by movement of a heated fluid such as air or water."

In space you are not in air or water. Therefore no convection. So, I won't bother with the rest.

Perhaps you might explain what "conduction" is and what might conduct in space?

Ever consider that nobody ever realizes the meaning of : " Fake-Moon-Landing™ ? "

Maybe it doesn't mean that the moon landing, was fake ?

Perhaps it means that they landed on a Fake-Moon™ ? ...

Don't you start....

Russia was trying a different, more complex method to do it, and never got the rocket that was going to take them to the moon to work.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

You don't need convection to heat something in a vacuum, you can use radiation. Radiation was the point and you can heat something in a vaccum. Unless objects are reflective, they will heat up. Despite this, the surface of the moon is not a vacuum either.

a reply to: GilmoreGouph

Well, yes. That's why spacecraft are reflective.

So is the Moon, which is why it shines.

I was responding to a poster who talked about glass cracking in boiling water.

So, what's your point?

The Moon has a slight atmosphere but it's very, very thin.

I thought this episode was reaching. I also think the breathless OMG stuff followed by debunking formula is getting old. Howz about some de-debunkable stuff from time to time. I love Why Files, but this one made me yawn. YMMV.

^NASA engineer admits we don't know how to get to the moon anymore

Another flat earther lie ....

When Apollo wound down in 1970's, the tooling and jigs were destroyed, supposedly on orders of Nixon. The blueprints were saved on paper and microfilm. The SATURN V moon rocket was literally custom built, especially the S1 first stage and the 5 F1 rocket engine . When the program ended the technicians and artisans were laid off and dispersed.

Recently Rocketdyne , builder of the F1 engines, had a project to redesign the F1 engines using modern materials and techniques - the F1B

F1B was to be simpler, by eliminating the turbine gas recycling and other features

The F-1B engine has a design goal to be at least as powerful as the unflown F-1A, while also being more cost effective. The design incorporates a greatly simplified combustion chamber, a reduced number of engine parts, and the removal of the F-1 exhaust recycling system, including the turbine exhaust mid-nozzle and the "curtain" cooling manifold, with the turbine exhaust having a separate outlet passage beside the shortened main nozzle on the F-1B. The reduction in parts costs is aided by using selective laser melting in the production of some metallic parts. The resulting F-1B engine is intended to produce 1,800,000 lbf (8.0 MN) of thrust at sea level, a 15% increase over the approximate 1,550,000 lbf (6.9 MN) of thrust that the mature Apollo 15 F-1 engines produced.

In fact if wanted to could fly back to the moon using SPACE X FALCON HEAVY to launch DRAGON space capsule on lunar trajectory Incorporating an addition stage could enter lunar orbit

SPACE X is currently working on its STARSHIP heavy booster to return to the moon

one big question some people say is why no color movie films on the moon?

they had plenty color picture still photos and they had a color movie film camera on the orbiting ship, but only black and white movie on the moon.

and later they find original (so they claim) movie film on original video that is much better than what nasa showed on live tv

hmmm

Probably because the brightness would have blinded them.

Its what the gold layer is for...

a reply to: 727Sky
I love why files, but there is this experiment, moon.nasa.gov... , which you would not be able to do on earth because of air resistance, unless in an airless atmosphere of course. So they must have filmed it in a vaccum chamber. Its not so hard to get to the moon...

What an ignorant statement.

I never said anything about looking directly at the sun for a photo?

Do you wear sunglasses all year round wherever you go and never let anyone look you in the eye directly....ever?

But the light from the moon is cold ,,it is warmer in the shade when mesurements are done , another of life's great mysteries

a reply to: stonerwilliam

What measurements?

Source?

I do believe we've been to the moon and I do believe, at the moment, we can't go back - mostly because we have moved on technologically and the specific technology used for the moon missions was never updated or redesigned and is all fallen out of use, antiquated, etc.


Oh, yeah and of course the crashed Transformer ship and the other alien buildings they found there have been a deterrent. The whole hollow moon thing may play into all that too.

Probably should have watched to the end. It was disguised again and again as why they didnt go....a reply to: billxam
