Please Warren, your canned responses were expected I mean no discredit to the dedicated scientists and professionals at NASA and the military that worked on the project, and those that soldier on today, and I answered you in jest off list - no need to take this public, unless you want to. Speaking of the heroes that died in the Apollo I fire, Lt.

I don't claim to know the answer, but I do know there are glaring inconsistencies with the official story - for both the lunar landing, and the collapse of the towers that YOU brought up. The Russians didn't call us out because we sent hundreds of thousands of $$$ worth of grain to a hungry Russian country for FREE. Follow the $$$ - cost of Apollo space program - 1969 dollars - $25.4 billion in 2010 money - 150 billion plus - perfect start for the arms and space race They raised $30 billion - plenty of profit motive - and nice distraction from the Vietnam War. Why was there no direct Tv Feed - and where are the tapes? How did the astronauts manage to take thousands of photos, and none of them are blurry, all with expert composition. I am a professional photographer, and I know this is imossible on earth, much less on the moon, with cameras mounted on the chest, with gloves on, and no way to utilize the detailed functions of the camera...these were not point and shoot! 5,771 photos taken in 4834 minutes on the moon, with experiments and golf fit in as well. John Mauldin, astrophysicist at NASA, said shielding two meters thick would be needed to survive solar flares, and astronomical data shows 1,485 flares during Apollo flights, with no such protection. If the suits the astronauts wore really protected them from deadly radiation, why didn't we use them at chernobyl? The radiation at chernobyl was a fraction of what would be experienced on the moon. Apollo 16 should have encountered a huge flare! Van Allen Radiation belts - micrometeorites - plenty of deadly hazards. I grew up right next door to Johnson Space Center - I've seen first hand the objects and artifacts that supposedly went to the moon, and common sense does not allow a thinking individual to believe such a story, sorry.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Hello Jessica, With all due respect, you have not done your homework. The questions which you pose have been discredited numerous times. And some are just plain silly. For example, how can you claim that there was no direct TV feed?? I don't know how old you are, but I sat in front of our television and watched as Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the Moon. There are plenty of tapes...but unfortunately, the highest quality ones do seem to have been lost. Regarding your contention that there are no blurry photos and that all are perfectly composed, I must disagree. Perhaps all of the photos which you have seen are perfect but obviously, you have not seen them all. I have spent the past couple of years studying the photos from the Apollo missions as well as stitching them together and cleaning them up as necessary to create large panoramic images. There are many which are out of focus, poorly composed, taken mistakenly and damaged by lunar dust and contaminants. check out this link: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/apollo/ But overall, the highly trained astronauts did an amazing job. I don't know the first thing about golf, but just because you go out and putter around on the greens does not make you an expert...particularly when you consider the major differences between the environments here on Earth and on the Moon. Why no Stars?? The astronauts were working in daylight. How many stars (other than our sun) do you see when you go outside during the day?? No engine sound?? With no atmosphere, there is not a medium to carry the sound waves. Didn't you ever see the movie Alien?? There is a reason why they used the tag line In Space, No One Can Hear You Scream. I could go on, but I don't want to waste any more time on a nut job like you.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Hello Tom, I don't believe that my reply to Jessica (at least to begin with) was in any way an attack. I addressed several of her questions with facts. After stating that I take nobody at their word, and I do research the information she provided absolutely no data and no facts to support her position. All that was provided was a shotgun blast of conspiracy theory, quotes taken out of context, dubiously related personal experience and opinion. I will admit that my final sentence was a bit demeaning, but at that point, I realized that no matter what info I would provide, her mind was already made up. It both saddens me and angers me that some people in our society can't accept the idea that when we put our mind to it, we can achieve greatness. I also find it perplexing that someone who doesn't believe that we landed on the Moon, uses amazing spin-off technology to voice her misguided opinions.

I usually don't waste one minute of my time on this mindless drivel, because those who are convinced that all the evidence is wrong or faked, but on this one topic, a so called professional photographer would know instantly that this issue, if nothing else was a canard. You don't need to be a professional to know that if you make an exposure with any camera with the rule of thumb settings for direct sunlight, ie. ISO 100, f/16, 1/100th second, NO stars will be recorded. Why? Because they are too faint to be recorded. The exposures made on the lunar surface were in daylight. The cameras were set for direct sunlight exposures. The reason the sky is black is because there is no atmosphere, not because it was night. Stars in the sky WOULD BE evidence that the images were faked, not the other way around. A professional photographer needs to understand and be an expert in their own field. Any photographer that doesn't know this extremely basic fundamental of photograph certainly is no expert, and most likely not even a photographer. If you can't understand the fundamentals in a field you claim an expert level of understanding, how can you possible understand something of far more complexity like global politics, celestial mechanics, or manned spaceflight?

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Why was there no direct Tv Feed - This one I can speak to. Ever since the movie The Dish, I've 'looked into' the Parkes Radio Telescope. The story as depicted in the movie is relatively correct, aside from a bit of dramatic license. Parkes was supposed to be a backup for the main video feed from the first Lunar broadcast, got bumped to main, and filled its responsibilities admirably in picking up and broadcasting the lunar feed, live. Several of the original techs who ran the telescope at that time are still around today; why not check with them about what they remember from that first broadcast? If you accuse them of faking the signal, well, I'm pretty sure you won't receive any offers of a 'stubbie' down at the local pub...

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Phil / List, Yes, the Japanese did take several photos of landing sites. No, this did not deal a death blow for conspiracy theorists. They are arguing a belief they have accepted as fact. For them, it is akin to arguing religion. You could have their own siblings doing back flips on the moon accompanied by both parents and a notary all wearing clocks like Flava Flav and they still wouldn't believe it. They would think the government and Public Enemy got to them and brainwashed them. Your point about the Russians is noted. It also drives my point stated earlier. The Russians would have called us out. We didn't pay them enough money to be quiet this long. They are broke in that region. Someone would be offering to go on a conspiracy show by now. Buzz Aldrin punching someone for bringing up the hoax is all the proof I need. A man with his composure losing his temper shows the insult he felt when confronted with such nonsense. I could believe in flies fossilized in meteorites or skin cell chondules before I believe that the lunar landing was a hoax.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Disguised as a point of view about the Apollo program, lunar landings, NASA, the astronauts, and historical events, the arguments presented are, at the heart of them, defamatory slanders directed at dozens, hundreds, thousands of individuals (depending on the full width of the conspiratoral argument), malicious libel, regardless of the delusional sincerity of the speaker. There is no requirement for tolerating or respecting that in any venue and certainly not here. Sterling K.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
List, I stand partly corrected. LRO did take many photos. When speaking of the Japanese accomplishments I was referring to the SELENE lunar orbiter. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched their SELENE lunar orbiter on September 14, 2007 (JST) from Tanegashima Space Center. SELENE orbited the Moon at about 100 kilometers (62 mi) altitude. In May 2008 JAXA reported detecting the halo generated by the Apollo 15 lunar module engine exhaust from a Terrain Camera image.[55] A 3-D reconstructed photo also matched the terrain of an Apollo 15 photograph taken from the surface.

A man with his composure losing his temper shows the insult he felt when confronted with such nonsense. A little back story on this episode probably warrants some comment too. A conspiracy theorist named Bart Sibrel continuosly staked, harassed and incited Aldrin to admit the landings were faked. At the time of the punch, Sibrel had approached Aldrin, with his own film crew, with the express intent to get a reaction out of Aldrin, and record it. He was calling Aldrin a coward and a liar and a thief. Aldrin, who had been dealing with the clown for some time before this point apparently would take no more of it. All I can say is Hooray for Buzz! A lesser man would not have waited so long and probably would have thrown more than just one punch.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-Topic-Fake Lunar Landing Response
LOL you dropped the Ed Mitchell bomb. Ed Mitchell, with all respects paid, is a conspiracy theorist. His accounts are no more proof backed than the hoax theorists. However if he is right then I would believe that we didn't go to the moon.wait... if his conspiracy is right then we DID go to the moon. Uhhhg. Conspiracies. So much more complex than what they try to cover. When are we going to stop all this nonsense. When are we going to stop weaving ridiculous schemes into delusions. Sometimes in life an empty Coke bottle that conks you on your head was just some ass that threw it out of a plane and not the gods being angry. I'm done talking off topic.

Re: [meteorite-list] OFF-TOPIC - Fake Lunar Landing Response
Hello All! Haven't really been reading this debate about the Apollo missions but take it that there is some doubt about the actuality of a landing. I recently purchased Direct From The Moon which is actual footage from the Japanese lunar orbiter Kaguya. The video is High Def and they used duel cameras for the 3 dimensional portions. It is a wonderful dvd of the moon. And it shows clear images of the lunar missions, left behind modules and the disturbed lunar surface caused by departure.. Buy it, you'll like it!

The questions which you pose have been discredited numerous times. And some are just plain silly. For example, how can you claim that there was no direct TV feed?? I don't know how old you are, but I sat in front of our television and watched as Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the Moon. There are plenty of tapes...but unfortunately, the highest quality ones do seem to have been lost. Regarding your contention that there are no blurry photos and that all are perfectly composed, I must disagree. Perhaps all of the photos which you have seen are perfect but obviously, you have not seen them all. I have spent the past couple of years studying the photos from the Apollo missions as well as stitching them together and cleaning them up as necessary to create large panoramic images. There are many which are out of focus, poorly composed, taken mistakenly and damaged by lunar dust and contaminants. check out this link: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/apollo/ But overall, the highly trained astronauts did an amazing job. I don't know the first thing about golf, but just because you go out and putter around on the greens does not make you an expert...particularly when you consider the major differences between the environments here on Earth and on the Moon. Why no Stars?? The astronauts were working in daylight. How many stars (other than our sun) do you see when you go outside during the day?? No engine sound?? With no atmosphere, there is not a medium to carry the sound waves. Didn't you ever see the movie Alien?? There is a reason why they used the tag line In Space, No One Can Hear You Scream. I could go on, but I don't want to waste any more time on a nut job like you.

Speaking of the heroes that died in the Apollo I fire, Lt. Col Guss Grissom had gone public that the AS-204 was a lemon, and called a press conference to address grievances against NASA, and he, Roger Chaffee, and Ed White were killed on Pad 34. I take nobody at their word, and I do research the information...I was introduced to the topic from an ex-OSS officer, and a tireless college professor at the University of Missouri - Columbia. I don't claim to know the answer, but I do know there are glaring inconsistencies with the official story - for both the lunar landing, and the collapse of the towers that YOU brought up. The Russians didn't call us out because we sent hundreds of thousands of $$$ worth of grain to a hungry Russian country for FREE. Follow the $$$ - cost of Apollo space program - 1969 dollars - $25.4 billion in 2010 money - 150 billion plus - perfect start for the arms and space race They raised $30 billion - plenty of profit motive - and nice distraction from the Vietnam War. Why was there no direct Tv Feed - and where are the tapes? How did the astronauts manage to take thousands of photos, and none of them are blurry, all with expert composition. I am a professional photographer, and I know this is imossible on earth, much less on the moon, with cameras mounted on the chest, with gloves on, and no way to utilize the detailed functions of the camera...these were not point and shoot! 5,771 photos taken in 4834 minutes on the moon, with experiments and golf fit in as well. John Mauldin, astrophysicist at NASA, said shielding two meters thick would be needed to survive solar flares, and astronomical data shows 1,485 flares during Apollo flights, with no such protection. If the suits the astronauts wore really protected them from deadly radiation, why didn't we use them at chernobyl? The radiation at chernobyl was a fraction of what would be experienced on the moon. Apollo 16 should have encountered a huge flare! Van Allen
