So, why do you assume Columbus lied?

Havent looked into Challenger because its not Apollo.
Hey I thought you were the one telling others to watch ALL of Jarrah videos in order to comment on this thread!
So Foo you better play catch up then!
Why? I just said I have not looked into Challenger.
Doesn't mean I didnt see his videos on it, but I dont see what it has to do with Apollo so I dont really care.
If you disagree with Jarrah and believe that NASA had no idea that launching the Shuttle in cold weather was highly risky, then, great, you disagree with Jarrah. But it has no impact on the validity of the moon landings one way or another. And I take this whole thing as a stalling tactic from researching and discussing actual Apollo issues like the Van Allen Belt. I take it you are probably stalling because the info you found about van Allen doesn't jive with your previously posted comments on the subject.
......that sounds hypocritical.....no it IS hypocritical.

Not really..
The thread is about Apollo, not Challenger or even JW's opinions regarding Challenger..

And you yours, do you really think that, with all the accusations being flung around in this thread, that the motives, sanity, logic, etc of the person who this thread is about, are exempt from investigation?

No, but neither is that of others..
It has been shown that your "Bad Astronomy" mate doesn't mind the odd lie..
So do we just assume everything he says is a lie??
If somebody is going to publicly make the claims that White makes, then they deserve scrutiny. If somebody accused you of murder would you simply try to prove you didn't do it or would you also question the motives of the accuser? I know what I would do.

I thought you post was addressing his motives and sanity etc..
Not his actual comments..
BTW, I don't agree with him on that particular point.
Nixon gives away moon rocks 1969 What a show it was
Upon being gifted, each Goodwill Moon rock became the property of the recipient - and therefore no longer subject to being tracked by NASA.
Whereas other lunar samples' locations are well documented by NASA to this day, as the years went by the gifted Apollo 17 lunar rocks started to go missing.
Today, of the 135 Apollo 17 rocks given away to other nations, the whereabouts of only 25 of them are known. An even vaguer fate befell the 134 distributed Apollo 11 rocks. The locations of fewer than a dozen are today recorded.
It is generally accepted that details surrounding the Moon rocks were so vague because nobody really expected Apollo 17 to be mankind's last lunar excursion.
Utter nonsense:

Maybe you are new to this thread.
But I said very early on, I find much of JW's information compelling, however, he does not present strong arguments for all his videos. Some are weak, and highly questionable.
So you must find this argument of his pretty strong to keep harping about it. And after several posts, you have not given your own opinion on it. I think thats what they call flame-baiting or trolling.
