And you didn't pay too much attention to what the references are. One of the pre-Apollo 8 references is effectively a "How to plan a project for NASA" report.
The others are all desk studies examining design considerations of the proposed remote LRV technology and likely mission strategies. They are not descriptions of existing technology.
This proves that NASA, in 1969, was actually paying off JPL for padded reports, compilations of previous reports and for mission fantasies of non-existent technologies.
It's another dark vein of corruption running through the Apollo program. But it's even more valuable than that!
then there was the whole promise that Kennedy made to Americans that they would go to the moon not because it was easy but because its hard, which i think was Kennedy trying to say that 'Yeah they got someone into space but we're gonna shoot over that and go to the moon'
With JFK out of the way, the MIC will get everything they wanted out of LBJ and Nixon.

No, your estimates for the robot arm is way, way over weight. There is no need to have the entire body of the mobot fit inside the command module... only the arms, motorized, remotely controlled, camera arms!
No, you are trying to fit the entire mobot (from your image) into a command module is not going to happen. However, installing only the camera controlling arms could have easily been done in any one of the boilerplate block I command modules.
Obviously you didn't read the NASA-CR-152720_RemotelyControlledLunarRover_1969.pdf See specifically Appendix A: References, because in the references section it reveals that most of the information in 152720 had already been reported on. There are 9 listed references. 5 of those 9 references were already published BEFORE Apollo 8.
No time machines here choos. The report did not magically appear on October 10, 1969. The ideas contained within the report had been around since at least 1959. And that brings me back to 1959 and Howard Hughes building his robots with TV eyes.

Howard Hughes sent those lunar mobots to the moon prior to each of the televised Apollo missions were launched. And here is the mission plan for it:

Not so fast, pilgrim. You have yet to prove the existence of Richard Nixon. I can show you a long list of actors, all of whom have confessed to impersonating the alleged President!

Please post a clip of someone wearing fifty pounds of bulky, movement restricting clothing zipping around like these guys on the Earth's surface:
DJW001
Are you saying that this movement, which involves constantly hopping from foot to foot at high speed and flailing arms like a maniac looks natural to you?
turbonium1
Their movements are natural. That is, all of their movements can be replicated on Earth. If you see something that cannot be done on Earth, you need to be much more specific about it. If you can't, then it's game over.
The better question is - Why are these (supposed) first men on the moon doing the 'Funky Chicken' in the first place?? They move the same way, regardless of speed. Do you think they only look silly at 2x speed?

I keep saying he thinks NASA can shoot down spacecraft build androids not to mention advanced video editing with cgi and all before the first microchip was invented . But oddly doesnt think they could go to the moon i call that a major logic fail.

So you're completely back-tracking on the claim you made that prompted my response then? That would be you admitting that you're wrong then.
You have clearly never been involved in writing technical reports summarising other technical reports.
I've been in discussions TESTIMONIAL before with conspiracy theorists CARD STACKING who keep promising some deal breaking big reveal. The reveal either never happens or they end up looking stupid. Which do you think yours is going to be?
SayonaraJupiter
Why don't we just stick to the facts from now on?

ummm... yes the ropes will make him reach that height faster than the man without ropes.. however he will exceed that height, since gravity is the only thing to slow him down..
turbonium1
You don't understand my point.
The ropes are used to help lift the person to the same height as the person without ropes.
Let's say the person without ropes reaches a height of 26 inches. So that will be the target height for the man with ropes.
IHis height will NOT go higher than 26". His jump cannot be compared to the other man if they jump to different hieghts. That's why I've made it clear - they both are jumping to the same height.
Why do you think the ropes have to be used throughout his ascent? They do not.
The goal is to lift the man to a height of 26". How is that achieved with the assistance of ropes?
See where I'm going here?
Sure - to achieve the same 26" height, the ropes help lift him to, say, a height of 24.5". Then, gravity slows his ascent, to reach our target of 26".
From there, the two jumps are at an identical speed - ie: the speed of Earth's gravity.
So here's a lesson for you -
If you want to spout off about your knowledge of physics, and make nice little calculations, you'd better know what the fundamental issues are, beforehand.
Otherwise it looks a bit..ah..you know..
How do you know they are actually wearing fifty pounds of clothing? Because NASA said they were? You have to prove your claim, before we move ahead.
I'm not back tracking, buddy! That report is going to fit in perfectly for Nixon's Apollo.

There you go, invoking the mythical "Nixon." You need to prove that such a person ever existed. There is ample evidence that he did not, but was merely portrayed by actors:
SayonaraJupiter
Plausible: Howard Hughes built a robotic arm for the Hasselblad camera rig inside the unmanned Apollo 12 command module and it was capable of taking commands from ground control.
I think my theory is much better explanation for the "7362", the pristine clean window shot of Earth.

I thought you were going to invoke the name of the mythical astronaut who snapped AS12-50-7362 ? Oh well, I think my theory is much better explanation for the "7362", the pristine clean window shot of Earth.
Plausible: Howard Hughes built a robotic arm for the Hasselblad camera rig inside the unmanned Apollo 12 command module and it was capable of taking commands from ground control.
Plausible: That's a very small command module with 3 astronauts in it. Apollo 12's Hasselblad 70-mm images in Magazine Q are completely lacking in crew members! There should be more evidence of "floating around" the cabin in 0g. Where are the floating objects in the Magazine Q? There are no floating objects inside the unmanned command module because there aren't any humans inside it... just a robotic arm snapping pictures, commanded from the ground.
