I think it's a well kept secret

Noticed this paragraph today.
Is this what the OP is refering to??
sciencedaily
A greater understanding of Earth's radiation belts is vital for protecting the satellites we rely on for global positioning, communications and weather monitoring, Turner said. Earth's outer radiation belt is a harsh radiation environment for spacecraft and astronauts; the high-energy electrons can penetrate a spacecraft's shielding and wreak havoc on its delicate electronics. Geomagnetic storms triggered when the oncoming particles smash into Earth's magnetosphere can cause partial or total spacecraft failure.
If the radiation still stuffs up satellites.... what shielding did the apollo xx's have to stop this?
The Van Allen radiation belt is a torus of energetic charged particles (plasma) around Earth, which is held in place by Earth's magnetic field.
The Apollo astronauts traveled through the Van Allen radiation belts on the way to the Moon; however, exposure was minimized by following a trajectory along the edge of the belts that avoided the strongest areas of radiation.

If you knew what was at stake during the cold war, you wouldn't be saying that.
If you decided you would think differently you wouldn't even reply.
And sadly it is also true as long as no one travel in space beyond a certain distance from Earth.

It does sound plausible to be fair
the op have not anwered many of you, why even care to crash it more..

I wouldn't be so sure that it is just radiation shielding its also radiation yielding too... The earth's heart beat is what keeps living beings circadian rhythm intact, without that REM sleep does not occur and one starts to go mad and dies after a short time...they say they implemented artificial schumann resonance freq's into the shuttle and rockets after discovering this is the case. I feel it is true that the earths schumann resonance is dynamically entrained with the Sun that the saturation and feedback system of the sun is what gives it the vibrancy that supports life... An artificial schumann also needs the suns extra frequencies in resonance to serve as a sustaining force. If one travelled beyond the solar system to a certain extent this resonance and feedback would diminished and eventually cease.
Edit: I think that the UFO's etc. are a. higher dimensional beings and b. time travellers. Not interstellar travellers, there is another potential possibility which may enable transporting via wormholes but I'm not going to talk about that as its indeterminate and only possible under certain circumstances which I feel are well beyond probability of implementation by Nasa given the nature of the mindset of contemporary physics.edit on 4-2-2012 by Spiratio because: (no reason given)

Well...I can disprove your first part of your post right now. Circadian RHYTHM is an over stated hypothisis that has had credence lent to it because the only people who are used in these studies are either people with sleeping disorders and even when a control group is brought into the equation...they are asked to sleep thus they do not sleep in their normal behaviorable way.
One thing you are right about is a person can only go so long without sleep...99.99999% of us will die without being allowed to sleep over various times depending on the person...that is unless you happen to be in that .00001% of people that are lucid dreamers and always know when they are asleep. This has alot to do with a person having neither Right or Left Brain Hemesphere Dominance as well as equal communication of the two hemespheres with the Subconscious...the part of us that remembers EVERYTHING our senses pick up....then allows whatever hemesphere of a persons brain that is dominant to decide which side will deal with the data....so in some people...their Left side or analitical side determines what hemesphere will interprete data as well as in some people...the Right side or creative side is dominant.
People who are lying will automaticly look up with both eyes to the Right side of their forehead and those who are trying to figure something out that involves mathamatical or spacial geometric calculations will look up with both eyes to the LEFT side of their forehead. Then there are people like me.
I use both sides eually and after recieving a CT scan years ago...it was determined that I had an over abundance of neural connections between each hemesphere as well as the are of the brain associated with a persons subconscious....I have played in a Touring International Band for years and do not need sleep if I am physically not tired. As far as CIRCADIAN RHYTHM is concerned...being constantly around powerful Amps that produce a MASSIVE ELECTROMAGNET FIELD...whether they are on or off as they are basically giant capaciters....and doing this for over 30 years...I am still alive! LOL! Nice way you wrote your post though! Split Infinity
