If you are asking me, I would not know.
No stars are visible from a submerged submarine, moron. That makes twice.

The hilarious part about all of this is, as I already pointed out, that SayonaraJ already acknowledged the reality of Apollo 14, and its landing on the Moon!!
I'll tell you right now Apollo 14 I don't believe in the official narrative.
I don't believe he had an ear problem. I don't believe he had surgery.
But I do believe that he pissed his pants on Mercury, shorted out the electronics in his spacesuit when his CIA handlers down at mission control ordered him to urinate...
Because the planned flight was only 15 minutes long, no one gave much thought to the issue of personal waste disposal. However, Shepard was strapped into his capsule some three hours before liftoff and after a couple of hours on his back, asked for "permission to relieve his bladder." After some debate, the engineers and medical team decided that this would be OK, presumably realizing that the alternative – postponing the launch while Shepard visited the bathroom – would not amount to a NASA publicity coup. Starting with Gus Grissom's flight, strap-on urine receptacles were provided for the astronauts' use.
--- because the experts of the day didn't anticipate that he'd be locked, bolted inside the capsule for more than about 40 minutes.
Alan Shepard did pee in his suit and then say, after three hours of being immobilized in a tiny capsule, "Why don't you just fix your little problem and light this candle?" but he was also a guy who said, "You know, being a test pilot isn't always the healthiest business in the world" so he understood the risks. 96% chance of survival was acceptable risk.
Care to comment on the thread's topic ? Do you believe it is the case, or is not the case, that Apollo was a cover for various programs that made SLBM celestial navigation a reality ?
What Apollo covered for must have been in direct violation of important treaties. Off the top of my head , I'll say it covered for programs that worked in violation of the partial test ban treaty Kennedy signed in 1963, as well as the outer space treaty of 1967.
Only getting warmed up here. We have about 3 or 4 hundred pages to go on this thread. It will prove to be by far one of ATS's most interesting threads for the reasons mentioned.

Also, even activities not in violation of treaty had to have been viewed as congressionally/publicly unpalatable.
So they did them anyway, just like Iran/Contra, only these were a million times worse type of thing. Worse because the weapons systems involved are so deadly.

The term is intended to give one pause about destroying art and more importantly artists with nuclear weapons. I also thought about calling the thread , "VAPORIZING RICHTER". But the Bolshoi Theater and associated Art/Artists seemed/seems better.

Don't even think to take on our Bolshoi Theater in Moscow! We'll call our Russian Jews in Hollywood to create such awe and horror that you choke on your cola and mac:
