I actually prefer the theories that we did go to the moon but it's a secret base for the ultra rich and powerful to hide on when TSHTFAWKI, Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. (The #### Hits the Fan As We Know It)

Maybe you can tell us all about the specially-cooled Hasselblad cameras and the film that was somehow able to resist 300 degree F temperatures?

Since there is no air on the moon there is no air temperature. The high temperature values are for the surface of the moon. The Hasselblads used on the moon had polished stainless steel bodies which reflected most of the sunlight (and heat). They did not get hot.

Yeah, you guys are absolutely right. It's a conspiracy that people give me stars. And I get paid millions a year to post things on here to try to distract people.
I wonder what kind of conspiracy it is when people give posts dozens of stars in a few minutes and it has already been ripped apart.

But the biggest exposure by FAR to the astronauts were Alpha and Beta particles. Gamma particles won't kill you instantly unless you're exposed to a HUGE dose. That's why all those x-rays you had for years that didn't have a lead shield haven't killed you yet.
It would take 5,000+ Rems to kill you within 48-72 hours. 400-600 Rems has a 60% fatality rate after 30 days. The astronauts on Apollo were exposed to less than 5 Rems, which is the yearly dose that a worker that handles radioactive material averages.
As for the eye protection, that gold visor does nicely. That gold lining is also used on fighter cockpits to help protect the pilots in the event of a nuclear flash.

The camera was built into the landing leg. Armstrong pulled a lanyard on his way out, and it deployed the camera to take his picture.
Wouldn't the massive amounts of radiation cause the astronauts that walked on the moon to age prematurely, or cause cancer?

That's why so many of the early astronauts have cataracts, cancer, and other illnesses. It took a long time for it to affect them, because they received a fairly low dose. It wasn't enough to affect them immediately, but it HAS affected them.

Could you start bringing fourth some evidence that the moon landings were actually faked instead of sitting there trying to discredit the brave people who pretty much flew to the moon in a shanty P.O.S. while not knowing what exactly to expect?
Oh, like this?

Great link............Wow.......going to be reading that stuff all night but yea def gives some credibility to the faked landing theory and in good detail too.

That guy Sibrel and others like him are un-informed numptys. No wonder Buzz Aldrin chinned him, I want to chin him too. What a twit.
To suggest the moonlandings were hoaxed is beyond ridiculous. I think that turkey actually believes all the rubbish he spouts.
One great example of how this kind of nonsense persists is the fact that the flag (the one that shouldnt have been waving because of no wind) had a mechanism on it to make it wave, because they figured out of course, that it wouldnt wave on the moon. So they put a wee motor on it. Thats why it waves. If the fools that put so much effort into shouting about fakery did some research they would find these kind of things out.

Will you shut up.

Excuse me? Nothing gets hot on the moon except for the moon rocks and the sand, er, moon dust? Interesting. I'm so glad I've got such smart people to straighten me out from my poor education in physics.
So why are the astroNOTs wearing cooling packs and all the rest of the paraphernalia to stay cool if only the surface of the moon gets hot?

They look like regular rocks in the sand to me, just like here on earth,

This is familiar territory, that video that GF just brought up is a thread killer.
