Because de facto President Whatshisname spent the next 200 years worth of American wealth bailing out banks and unions.

Besides, the space program was based in Texas, and Texans don't like Whatshisname.

Next question.

No flames from the thrusters. One has to wonder if the fuel even ignited.

Also why does the lander blast-off with the same speed through-out and not slowly build up the speed like when Rockets blast-off from earth slowly building momentum but at a 1/6 ratio? -- "I think you had good thrust!" (00:24)

The lunar thrusters would have shown flames because there was oxygen present, so they say!

Liar. The lunar lander did not use hydrogen or oxygen for fuel. It used Aerozine 50, which is colorless and transparent when burning in a vacuum. The upper stage of Delta-II rockets also use this fuel. Are you claiming this rocket was a hoax too?

I try to always be honest - so don't worry about that my dear.

I believe you're a shill and saw many false statements coming from your side. That's why I simply can't stand reading your crap and whenever I feel like it, I'll leave a comment.

I know it's not the best way of handling such a situation but sometimes I just can't help myself - just like today.

Hopefully that's transparent enough.

The Saturn V was more powerful than any rocket currently flown. In terms of raw power and capacity, it was superior to the shuttle. It also never suffered a catastrophic failure during launch, but it was more expensive to operate and was strictly a one time use only vehicle.
 Quoting: Astronut

You're a funny guy Astronut.

Instead of complimenting science that modern tech is superior you're complimenting science that after decades of trying to surpass the "ancient tech" NASA is now regressing back to the past.

SATURN V was another Walt Disney Production:

This launch scene is a Hollywood staged theatrics of the SATURN V.



See all the debris?

See the cables falling?

Chucks after chunks of who knows what that stuff was.

This was done solely to make it seem like its an absolute and incredible feat as science and their 'men in white' become defiant of natural heavenly laws and attain the unattainable as they sever the chains that have enslaved humanity that bound the human-race to walk the surface of the earth never realizing our first and primary desire to access heaven since the ancient days of Babel tower and freeing us as all 'HELL BREAKS LOOSE'

HUGE chunk of ICE falling at 1:59 maker -- brrrrrr! Its cold at launch pad.

The Great U. S. A. at the 2:07 marker -- Hollywood is good!

The proof the above clip was taped separately from the Public launch on July 16 1969 is at the 1:11 marker -- Gotta luv those numbers, ha ha ha! The ground camera on the launch pad is completely unobstructed from the smoke of the nozzles as the Rocket is clearly seen lifting, or of its INTENSE heat, flames, fire and brimstone, ha ha ha!

Here's how it really looked on July 16 1969



FIRST 'SECOND' THAT CAMERA WOULD HAVE BEEN A BLUR -- THEN 'TOAST'

My favorite scene in the Walt Disney theatrical launch of SATURN V is at the 01:48 marker, it captivated me when the tower supports retracted and cleared the Rocket for some odd reason.

Great job NASA, thanks for the memories!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1357709



SATURN V was not even an American Product, it was in effect a German rocket, invented by NAZI rocket scientists and built by NAZI rockets Scientists.

America did not put a man on the Moon, the Germans did.

Wernher von Braun put a man on the Moon, and he was NAZI SS, deliberately surrendered to the Americans before the Russians could grab him, at the end of WW2.
 Quoting: Bogusdude

Everyone knows you can't trust a NAZI -- no man on the moon!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1357842


And everyone knows you can't trust Walt Disney

That's SS Sturmbannführer Wernher von Braun and Walt Disney having a nice little photo shoot.

climbs up and down this pole. When he climbs down, he
sings songs, and when he climbs up, he tells tales."

Well, if we are going to venture down the temperature route can I ask why this photo, in a plastic bag, did not instantly curl up,
Its in direct sunlight, with no atmosphere and placed on the surface.

There is probably a very simple explanation as to why it was not instantly fried, so feel free to tell me :)

What's the freezing point of N2O4/Aerozine-50?

What's the boiling point of N2O4/Aerozine-50?

What's the temperature on the moon?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 135784

Temperature of the moon is irrelevant. What matters is the temperature of the fuel tanks which is dictated by the reflectivity and thermal properties of the spacecraft itself. The landing struts, being rather long and well insulated, do not tend to transfer much heat from the moon's surface to the rest of the vehicle. By the same token, a plastic bag does not instantly melt while held by an astronaut standing on the moon because the vacuum acts as an insulator and there is no transfer of heat from the moon's surface to the bag by way of convection because there is no air.

Now, my questions for you:
What temperature does the exterior skin of the international space station reach when it is on the daytime side of earth?

What temperature does the exterior skin of the international space station reach when it is on the night side of earth?

What are the freezing and boiling points of the unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine fuel used by ISS?

 Quoting: Astronut


The sun's heat would boil the fuel exploding its tank.

The Lunar tank would have to be equipped with a heater during the night time and coolant system during the daytime.

Insulation would do minimally nothing just like insulation does minimally nothing for people who wrap themselves in hot weather. Yeah it may help for sunburn but you're still hot.

Insulation alone won't do the job just like it doesn't do the job for a house in the middle of a cold winter if you have nothing heating the house inside. Leave all thermostats off and see how fast the temperature of the house drops to almost equal the temperature outside minus wind factors which there's none of on the Moon.

Please define - Much

because later you state that NO heat is transfered to the bag, even though it is on the lunar surface, jast as the landing struts are.

And what about the Sun, bag is in direct sunlight, with no atmosphere, thats enough to fry it without temp transfer from the moons surface as well

I do tend to agree about the fuel temps though, I think the fuel can be safely kept from heating.

Its just that bloody photo is bugging me :)

I love how the shills ran quickly in here to say "oh they are shutting it down because they have such bigger and better ways to get into space now". Oh yeah what? The TR-3B perhaps? They are so not gonna admit to that.

Yet there hasnt been any talk on tv about using these other methods to get into space.

If they had better vehicles for this they would never be a sense of "end" like we are getting now but rather the program would just have simply evolved through the years to include the new stuff and they would just shelve the shuttles and put em in a museum. Did we end the Navy when we made our first submarine or stopped making destroyer escorts? Something is up folks..

No one deserves privileges, we ALL deserve rights! A privilege means that some one is better than you. Which is NOT CORRECT. We ALL breath the same air, we ALL share the same Earth. ONLY Brotherhood and Unity

We ALL bleed RED.

Well, if we are going to venture down the temperature route can I ask why this photo, in a plastic bag, did not instantly curl up,
