Title: To the Moon? What a joke.
Post by: Fortress on May 13, 2020, 04:15:26 PM
We’ve never been to the Moon

Not a chance.

So humans travelled 385,000 km, sent a capsule onto the planet while its “mother” (with piloting astronaut) circled it, those capsule dudes got out and walked and drove around in a Moon Jeep, then launched back into orbit and re-connected with the spaceship, then travelled 385,000 km back to Earth, and then re-entered our atmosphere?

Over 50 years ago?

Look at the tech back then. Look at it now.

And still to this day any single foray into space by any nation has a high chance for disaster. Usually only with a very moderate (relative) travel distance, to boot; indeed much, MUCH less than 385,000 fucking kilometres.

Also, 50 fucking years and, what, in that time, HALF A CENTURY, the likes of Russia or China hasn’t done it?! Even taken a stab?

What a work.

Not true, Fortress!  May I present the truth as borne out by... The Old Negro Space Program:

In the early days of the space program, NASA was Whites only.  And so a ragtag band of men, known as "Blackstronauts" formed NASSA.  The Negroe American Space Society of Astronauts.

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fa/BlackstronautsSmall.jpg)

On September 31, 1966, Suitcase Jefferson and Louie Hayes land their rocket-powered Coupe de Ville on the surface of the Moon and return safely to Earth. Their amazing feat is buried by the black blackout, and appears on page 34 of the Cincinnati Enquirer (and, presumably, gets the same treatment in other papers). The article reads as follows:

    Negroes Land on Moon

    Talk about getting lost! Wallace Jefferson and Louis Hayes, both negroes, have wandered all the way to the moon!

    The hapless pair entered lunar orbit late yesterday afternoon and finally landed on the surface of the moon several hours later. They plan to return later this week.

    The incident is not a total tragedy. "We may want to talk with these negroes," said NASA mission commander Deke Slayton. "Their mishap may just help us in our goal to land a man on the moon by the end of the decade."

Saddened by the nation's lack of interest in their heroics, Jefferson and his friends decide to shut down NASSA.

It was disbanded because the astronauts refused to answer mission control with  "Yes, Nassa" .... "No, Nassa".

I used to believe it when I was young, but when you take the time to research everything, there is NO WAY humans could've ever walked on the moon.  It was all an elaborate hoax.

Heat:
+250F in the sun, -250 in the shade. The power/batteries required to keep the LEMs interior temperature livable would have been enormous.  Impossible for the batteries they brought with them to accomplish this. Besides, batteries only function from -20F to +120F.   

Radiation:
The gamma rays and X-rays would've killed them very quickly.
If those silly clown suits protected them from solar and cosmic radiation, why didn't they use them to clean up Chernobyl and Fukushima?

Photos/film:
Many pictures were taken, all studio quality too - lol  The radiation and heat would've destroyed the film.  Ever try to take film through the x-ray at airport security?... it gets ruined.  Their cameras were not pressurized from the vacuum of space or shielded from the radiation.  The moving parts in the camera would've melted and fused together and the film would've melted in the +250F heat.

Armstrong calling the Apollo 11 landing:
The astronauts are basically sitting on top of the LEM's huge engine as it is descending... the engine is operating as Armstrong is calling the out the telemetry... yet, you don't hear any engine noise at all coming from his headset microphone.  Also, there is no burn/blast mark from the engine below the LEM.  No moon dust on the landing pads either.

There's about 100 more things I could mention.

It's much easier to fool someone, than to convince them they've been fooled.

I don't get the foil. If I have instruments which have sufficiently fire resolution as to read the electromagnetic inductance of your brainwaves then I can simply detect what they induct into a Faraday Cage, right? And if I'm reading your thoughts wouldn't I know you're buying tin foil and tearing off a sheet and putting it your head? Who do you think you're fooling?

I find it odd that no other country has tried going to the moon for exploration purposes
As How Likely is it that NASA would share much if any of the valuable info they got from
Going - If they did go.

Rob,

I don't plan on making this discussion into a row.  Suffice to say, I like you.  You are intelligent, you stick to your guns, and you're well-versed in all aspects of the strength game.  Moreover, you're candid.  I can't remember the venue (here?  MFW?), but I *do* remember that you told me, I quote, you "marvelled" at how Nasser "struggled" with 315 on incline presses.

That said, and setting aside the technical difficulties in Luna landings for a moment, I'm curious:

If, and I do mean IF, NASA faked landing men on the Moon (which they didn't, but that's another day's ball of wax), why didn't the Soviet Union cry foul? 

Forget China.  They are still light years behind the USA and Russians, nevermind their tech in the late sixties.

Russians.  If the States forged such a fakery, such a supposedly scientific impossibility, why did the USSR sit around, thumbs up their asses, and not try to discredit it?  Where are the Pravda stories about Americanski lies?

Flame away if need be, but I tell y'all, yeah:  the USA put men on the moon.  Every one of those radiation arguments, flag "waving" et al. have been thoroughly debunked.  I choose to believe mechanical engineers, astrophysicists and others *who grew up AFTER the landings and still support them* over some layman who "did some research" on Google.

Btw, to the ignoramus tl;dr crowd, you should be very wary of anyone who encourages you to "do your own research."  Questioning Big Brother is all well and good, and I encourage that.  Just the same, most people lack the intelligence or objectivity to "research" things independently.

You state you are NOT an expert in any field of specificity to this topic yet claim what you do...that landing on the Moon in 1969 was a government lie.

Imagine intelligent people reading Getbig....they have to conclude that a lot of dopes inhabit this forum. True knuckleheads who are really dense. Dumbbells.

Or trolls. If young people were not alive in 1969 what evidence do they have about what happened then? Doing a search on YouTube is hardly sufficient simply

because there are many, many fake sites and bullshit peddled there. How does one determine that anything they watch is real and true? Therein is the problem.

The Flotsam have no clue at all about science so can be duped into believing all manner of bullshit. David Icke is one of those who dupes the ignorant.

They have no shame and even profit from their bullshit.

Yes there is a reflective cube left on the moon from one of the Apollos, anyone with a powerful enough laser can fire into the location on the moons surface and receive a return pulse in the time it takes for the light to get to the moon and back (a few seconds).

This fact has been independently verified by many international sources.

The Americans did walk on the moon, it's our civilisations single greatest accomplishment.

It has not been surpassed due to pussification and comfortable living in the west, current generations care more about social media than doing anything that actually matters.
