Game Over for NASA Moon-Landing Hoax | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 11398639 United States 03/04/2012 04:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Apollo 16 Image Quoting: ZIPUX [link to science.ksc.nasa.gov] The light source apparently from the left side, see the astronaut/actor shadow in the image, is correct. No shadow from the LV, which suggest the light source is closer the to astronaut than the LV. Note the 'spotlight' of light in the visor. That is about the correct size one should expect from a refection from the sun actually, but look at where it is. It is on the right hand lower side, opposite to the light source, this cannot be. If you notice the right hand side of this astronaut is illuminated also from the right hand side, maybe that's why we can also see a reflected light source in the right hand side of the visor. This image is fake. the rover's shadow is likely on the other side of the ridge. The sun is NOT reflecting in the visor. It looks more like the astronaut's camera. By the way, the size of the sun on a reflection is not a single size. It depends on focal length of the camera, curvature of the reflecting surface, Whether that surface is clean/dirty, or scratched. |

I'm positive this would be one of the best proof. Yes indeed, ha ha that a classic ;) |

I'm positive this would be one of the best proof. The rock was NOT given by the astronauts, but by an ambassador. It was given to a retired prime minister when the Dutch royal family at the time got nothing. It was far larger than any other sample given out. It was loose and not packaged in anything. The accompanying card did NOT identify it as a Moon rock. NASA didn't give out ANY samples that year. The retired prime minister was said by his family to be hard of hearing. All the available evidence points to a misunderstanding on the part of the prime minister. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 8597527 United States 03/04/2012 05:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Shhh. Like the Creationists, most hoax believers subscribe to a simple philosophy about remote measurement. If you can't stick a foot in it, it doesn't exist. Quoting: nomuse (not logged in) 2380183 Probably a more sound rule than your dogma. "If it is written in the Holy Bible of Nasa, then it is truth." An easily falsified claim. Most of my discussion has been on the underlying science, and there has been (nor is there) no need to link to "NASA" for that information. You really think NASA invented geometry? Linear perspective? Relative magnitudes? The three laws of thermodynamics? Newton's laws of motion? Here he goes again, quoting 'science' not applied in this case, but refers to it, he's attempting to deny he's a NASA convert. Every word you utter, and the more you do it, you're convincing more and more readers here you are nothing but a NASA shill. If there were any 'doubters' here about this hoax, you sure have done an excellent job in completely converting them from NASA gospel and religion. Well done 'nomuse', at least you have contributed something of value at last. |

I never stated it was the sun reflecting in the visor, what I stated is that the reflection one can see, is what you should expect to see if it were the sun, I mentioned that as there are many NASA images showing refections of the sun in visors that are 3-4 inches in diameter on the visors, which are of course a total fail. What I am pointing out is the fact that there is in fact a bright source of reflection within the visor in the RIGHT hand side of the visor, when in fact the sun is to the LEFT of the astronaut within the picture, and no I do not agree that reflection in the visor is from the camera. Look at the shadow cast by the astronaut, it's fair to say it is correct, look at the shadow of the vehicle, the shadow is there, very short, and even slightly at a very different angle. The LV & Astronaut could not have been illuminated by the sun, because we know the sun was low on the horizon, which checks out pretty well with the shadow of the astronaut, I cannot argue that, but I can argue that the same sun at the same time, within the same still, would cause the LV to have shadows in the exact same direction of the astronaut, and not be so short as they are. The light source was slightly behind and above the LV within this image. This does not account for the reflection within the visor of course. Thats a pretty intense reflection is it not? There is evidence of quite a strong reflected light, or even source of secondary light on the right hand side, you could what we use in photography, just white boards to reflect light from the main source to use a fill in light to hi-light shadows, but this image shows the right hand side of the astronaut quite brightly lit in the shadow side, and again we have to deal where is that light source emanating from to reflect within the visor. |

Quoting: Whoami [link to www.rense.com] or, was it fixed before astros came there hmm This is a great photo and an awesome example of the fakery.. if the astronauts placed this pole in the ground the boot prints would be there, they would closer and they would be toe facing to the pole, unless of course they had inspector gadget arms and inserted the pole into the ground side on.. oh yeah, thats what they did.. wow nasa's technology is fantastic isnt it, to give astronauts extendable arms.. Found this image, Apollo 14 Quoting: ZIPUX [link to science.ksc.nasa.gov] Have a look folks. That's the sun, if it is i'll eat my iPad ! A halo in no atmosphere! The shadow is consistent with the light source, the shadow as is should be, dark. This is something they can not debunk, we know there is no atmosphere and we know they didnt have special lenses or diffusers or special effects camera's etc.. there is no camera in the world that can give you the effect of atmosphere when there is none.. Not only do they have no idea about photography in a zero atmosphere environment but their ridiculous answers only prove further that we didnt put a man on the moon.. the photos of the moon from orbit are most definately real, but taken by unmanned craft.. We have many many photos of the sun from the space station, every single one of them, including photos of the astronauts with the reflection of the sun in their visors, and in every single one with no exception, the sun's rays effect is strikingly pointed and star like.. why because thats what happens when you take a picture of it in zero atmosphere.. The great point about the sun photo is that it is solid evidence .. and to prove it even further here is a photo from apollo 11, in earth orbit just after take off.. [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] Note there is some reflection from the window, however more importantly note the crisp pointed 'rays' of the sun (yes ive heard a photographer speaking of the technical term for this, but as im not copying and pasting i cant recall the term right now, however the name for it is less important than the actual event) This above photo was taken above our atmosphere, in orbit.. a photo of the sun from apollo in zero atmosphere.. every photo of the sun from the moon should look like this also.. do they? No.. Lets also go back to the size of the earth in the photos.. apollo 11 took a series of shots as they came over the earth facing side of the moon from the command module.. here is the first one of them.. notice the size of the earth from the command module.. this size will not change in the few hours they were on the moon.. right?.. because the earth doesnt rotate around the moon .. right?.. yes youre right.. [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] Ok.. so beautiful shot.. breathtaking.. now.. remember the size of the earth from the command module as you look at this next picture taken in the next 30 mins as the Lunar Module is released from the command module.. taken from the cockpit of the command module.. [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] Notice anything strange there?.. can you see the earth?.. No?... let me point it out... its that teeny weeny little dot just above the front of the LM... wow how'd it get so tiny? only half an hour before the earth was in all its magnificent glory coming into view as the command module rounded the top edge of the moon and onto its earth facing front.. how can that be? .. the earth obviously dosent move that quickly and it certainly doesnt move away from the moon as its traversing our solar system.. the photo is taken from roughly the same place in orbit.. so how did the earth get so little in such a short time.. its magic i tell ya!! Here is that photo of the LM on the ground again.. here we go again with the little earth.. lets just deal with the size issue here for now, because the position is also wrong, but that should be obvious to anyone lol [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] where only, what? an hour ago, the earth looked 50 times bigger.. [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] wonder how the earth does that.. or better yet.. wonder what kind of magical cameras they had to make this happen.. |

This is in direct contradiction to their little vid of the landing.. well it isnt actually when you realise that in the film it wasnt dust being kicked up at all but a lame ass attempt at special effects... but lets just go with the believers for a second.. the film of the landing shows 'dust' being blown everywhere as they descend down to the surface... so there is 'evidence' the dust was kicked up .. so what happened? armstrong jumped out and gave it a quick vac and clean before he took the photo... now i could stretch my belief meter if there was even a spec of dust on these legs.. but after a landing, on a dusty surface,there is no trace of dust on the LM... come on .. you people dont really expect us to believe that do you?... lets remember also we see the lunar rover in future missions quite dusty and dirty.. just from driving around.. not to mention a full rocket thrust in all its wonderment landing on the surface of the moon... lets hear nomuses answer for that lmao |

If you notice the right hand side of this astronaut is illuminated also from the right hand side, maybe that's why we can also see a reflected light source in the right hand side of the visor. This image is fake. the rover's shadow is likely on the other side of the ridge. The sun is NOT reflecting in the visor. It looks more like the astronaut's camera. By the way, the size of the sun on a reflection is not a single size. It depends on focal length of the camera, curvature of the reflecting surface, Whether that surface is clean/dirty, or scratched. sorry about the above post not having my comment attached.. i was laughing so hard at the bolded comment i couldnt control my fingers.. Did a believer just give us proof of the fraudulent nature of the photo? I think so.. "its not the sun reflecting in his visor"... dead right buddy, its a secondary light source.. well golly gosh how can that be if they are on the moon?... Oh you say its the camera reflecting in his visor.. the hasselbalds had flashes did they?.. hmm no.. so couldnt be the flash.. so how else do you suggest the 'camera' was reflecting in his visor? .. No, it is the camera of the astronaut in the picture. He has a camera attached to and sticking out from his chest. Do you really not see that? There is no secondary lighting. If there were they would be multiple shadows on each object. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 11398639 United States 03/04/2012 06:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Apollo 16 Image Quoting: ZIPUX [link to science.ksc.nasa.gov] The light source apparently from the left side, see the astronaut/actor shadow in the image, is correct. No shadow from the LV, which suggest the light source is closer the to astronaut than the LV. Note the 'spotlight' of light in the visor. That is about the correct size one should expect from a refection from the sun actually, but look at where it is. It is on the right hand lower side, opposite to the light source, this cannot be. If you notice the right hand side of this astronaut is illuminated also from the right hand side, maybe that's why we can also see a reflected light source in the right hand side of the visor.

By the way, the size of the sun on a reflection is not a single size. It depends on focal length of the camera, curvature of the reflecting surface, Whether that surface is clean/dirty, or scratched. I never stated it was the sun reflecting in the visor, what I stated is that the reflection one can see, is what you should expect to see if it were the sun, I mentioned that as there are many NASA images showing refections of the sun in visors that are 3-4 inches in diameter on the visors, which are of course a total fail. What I am pointing out is the fact that there is in fact a bright source of reflection within the visor in the RIGHT hand side of the visor, when in fact the sun is to the LEFT of the astronaut within the picture, and no I do not agree that reflection in the visor is from the camera. Look at the shadow cast by the astronaut, it's fair to say it is correct, look at the shadow of the vehicle, the shadow is there, very short, and even slightly at a very different angle. The LV & Astronaut could not have been illuminated by the sun, because we know the sun was low on the horizon, which checks out pretty well with the shadow of the astronaut, I cannot argue that, but I can argue that the same sun at the same time, within the same still, would cause the LV to have shadows in the exact same direction of the astronaut, and not be so short as they are. The light source was slightly behind and above the LV within this image. This does not account for the reflection within the visor of course. Thats a pretty intense reflection is it not? There is evidence of quite a strong reflected light, or even source of secondary light on the right hand side, you could what we use in photography, just white boards to reflect light from the main source to use a fill in light to hi-light shadows, but this image shows the right hand side of the astronaut quite brightly lit in the shadow side, and again we have to deal where is that light source emanating from to reflect within the visor. I still say the reflection in the visor is of the astronaut's own camera. The same astronaut in the picture. The camera is attached to his chest and sticking out quite a bit. It is seen in his own visor due to the highly curved glass. The shadow of the rover is simply affected by and hidden by terrain. |
ZIPUX User ID: 4394297 United Kingdom 03/04/2012 06:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is something else I havent heard anyone explain... the issue of the dust upon landing.. now.. here is the photo of one of the legs of the LM Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11802684 [link to www.hq.nasa.gov] Clean, crisp, beautiful in all its tinfoil glory.. but wait a minute..where is the moon dust all over it from landing? 10,000 pounds of downward thrust from that little rocket on the underneath of the LM and it didnt blow up one spec of dust?.. really?.. wow.. i want to go live on the moon where I dont ever have to dust again... This is in direct contradiction to their little vid of the landing.. well it isnt actually when you realise that in the film it wasnt dust being kicked up at all but a lame ass attempt at special effects... but lets just go with the believers for a second.. the film of the landing shows 'dust' being blown everywhere as they descend down to the surface... so there is 'evidence' the dust was kicked up .. so what happened? armstrong jumped out and gave it a quick vac and clean before he took the photo... now i could stretch my belief meter if there was even a spec of dust on these legs.. but after a landing, on a dusty surface,there is no trace of dust on the LM... come on .. you people dont really expect us to believe that do you?... lets remember also we see the lunar rover in future missions quite dusty and dirty.. just from driving around.. not to mention a full rocket thrust in all its wonderment landing on the surface of the moon... lets hear nomuses answer for that lmao ...gosh the 'Neil popped out to do some quick dusting/vac'....really made me laugh....thanks ...don't often to get a laugh on this thread lol.,..... ...but yeah of course it's beyond ....belief...who with a sane mind could conclude not a spec of dust after experiencing the blast of 10,000 pounds of thrust, from a rocket burning Hydrazine & Nitrogen Tetroxide, which must have if occurred, thrown up a huge amount of material. Afterwards though all the dust was still there, none of it as you have pointed out on the feet of the 'flying bedstead' as I affectionately refer it as, but still there for Neil and Buzz to leave footprints in. What a joke. |

[link to www.google.co.uk] ...... that popped up and took a picture hence the light in the visor, it doesn't make it true, although more probable than the camera being the cause of the intense bright refection in the visor.....that is a secondary light source .....ask 'nomuse' he's an expert in knowing where these reflected light sources emanate from, 'apparently. FYI: Secondary light sources can be fill in light, much lower intensity that main light source which would burn out faint secondary shadows. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 11802684 Australia 03/04/2012 06:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Different focal length. In each case the Earth takes up 2 degrees as it should. The difference is that the cameras had different sizes on the field of view. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11398639 70-mm Hasselblad Electric Camera. This camera, which was carried aboard the command module, featured a motor-drive mechanism, powered by two nickel-cadmium batteries, that advanced the film and cocked the shutter whenever the camera was activated. This was the camera they used to take both shots.. now explain your focal length theory... What is focal length?. Very simply, it is the distance from the lens to the film, when focused on a subject at infinity. In other words, focal length equals image distance for a far subject. To focus on something closer than infinity, the lens is moved farther away from the film. This is why most lenses get longer when you turn the focusing ring. You need to change the lens to change the focal length.. this didnt happen with the above camera.. |
