Why dont someone point a huge telescope at the landing sites on the
moon and put an end to this rubbish topic.

If you figure the maximum resolution of the biggest telescope on earth,
you'll find that it can't resolve details as small as the visual effects
remaining from the Apollo missions.

On the other hand, you *can* still get a return from the laser ranging
experiments left behind, given a sufficiently powerful laser.

On the third hand, some imaging returned from a lunar orbiter fairly
recently show blast marks and some other visual evidence from one of the
Apollo sites.


Three hands? Born near Three Mile Island?

No the third hand (ie "The Gripping Hand") indicates he is an ET
and that the imperial blockade of The Moat has broken down.

Darn...I wasn't supposed to let on about that.

No...the Mote, not Moat.

question #3 why it is so short?

Michael


It's short and of low quality so people with dial up connections don't have to
spend hours downloading the clip. Besides, do you really want to watch 30 more
minutes of some guy driving on the moon?

Let's face it, you have made up your mind an, logic and facts be damned, you
know what's right and the thousands of people involved with the landings are
all liars.

Do you deny the Holocaust too?

Oh, it's a much bigger conspiracy than that.

After all hundreds of scientists at outside labs were given moon rocks
to play with that had features that they claimed to not be able to
reproduce on the Earth.

And then there are several other countries that could very well have
tracked the Apollo missions and never complained about not seeing
them.

But I suppose if the Earth really is flat then there obviously wasn't
a Soviet Union on the other side of the planet.

Moon meteorites, are quite often found on earth. You van even buy it
for 1000$/gram.

Sure. they tracked automatical probe with TV/radio transmitter.

this clearly indicates your intellectual level.

Go and see a good Australian movie called "The Dish". Then tell me how they
'simulated' the transmission from the moon, especially the bit when the
moon comes over the horizon.

It can't be a satellite: if you know anything about orbital mechanics, you
would know it can't be done *unless the transmitter is on the moon*.
Here's a clue: orbital period is entirely dependent on distance from earth.

It can't be an aircraft; no aircraft could fly fast enough for the change in
the angle of the transmission to be quick enough, especially at low horizon
angles.

Michael's claim is that the Americans flew a fully automated tv and
radio relay satellite to the moon and landed it there. The fact
that with 1960's technology this would be at least as difficult as
flying 3 men is of course irrelevant,

The fact is that manned mission was and still is much more difficult.
Although given that time level of technology I agree that it was huge
US achivement. nevertheless we did better in the department
of automatical probes in Moon. Would you agree that russia won the
moon race in that automatical probe department?
