Why the moon landing was NOT a hoax

The history of the videocassette recorder follows the history of videotape recording in general. In 1952 the Vision Electronic Recording Apparatus high speed multi-track machine was built and trialed by the BBC.[1] This machine used a thin steel tape on a 21-inch (53.5 cm) reel traveling at over 200 inches (510 cm) per second. Despite 10 years of research and improvements, the machine became obsolete when Ampex introduced the Ampex VRX-1000. This model became the world's first commercially successful videotape recorder in 1956. It used the 2" Quadruplex format, using two-inch (5.1 cm) tape.[2] Because of its US$50,000 price, the Ampex VRX-1000 could be afforded only by the television networks and the largest individual stations.[3]

In 1963, Philips introduced its EL3400 1" helical scan recorder (aimed at the business and domestic user) and Sony marketed the 2" PV-100, its first reel-to-reel VTR intended for business, medical, airline and educational use.[4]

Cool story bro

damn good video

i have been a long time on the fence regarding the moon visit, did usa go or did it not.. well considering the technical aspects alone as this guy points out it becomes more and more obvious it was easier to go than to fake.

Great video! He made some great points and it was entertaining to watch. Why do I believe it wasn't a hoax? Simple, My aunt was Wernher von Braun's secretary. She wass privy to all the inside info. Not once was there any talk about a hoax, or what not. We went there.
The guy in the video is right alot of the people the do not believe it were not around when it happened, of course neither was I, But I guess it you didn't live and only hear about it after the fact,its easier to say that is just never happened. Some times I think people to to look in to history and learn. Not just what you are told in a history book, but find out who and what NASA was at the time.
But in the end you can believe what you like. No one is going to stop you.But if you really think about what it would take to fake the moon landing and cover it up for all these years, like the gay said, its easier just to go to the moon

1963 VTR footage

JFK 1960 VTR footage

shame that video has been uploaded using faulty firewire drivers.. hence the lines on the video.

Without taking side on hoax or not, he claims they (NASA)can fly to space (we all agree on that, i assume) but not slow down a reel to reel VTR, that's makes sense

One of the dumber threads on here. Haha.

One more VTR 1960's Era

Or is it too complicated for you to understand?

Not really. I already saw the vid twice and although it makes some plausibel points, it is full of contradictions.

Next time NASA should take the Video technology from the Germans too, not just the rocket tech, amazing 1969 color footage VTR

I'm not really a moon-truther, but has anyone satisfactorily cleared up as to why the cross-hairs of the camera lens seem to appear behind certain objects in some photos?

I must admit, that one made me think twice.

Thanks.

another point, the video was relayed through australia... is it possible the speed of the footage could have been altered by bouncing the signal about?

If it was pre-recorded in a studio (i'm not saying it was) they could have done all the conversions i.e speed/frame rates etc, and then broadcast it later, however the clean (no dust) on the LM arms/pods is very suspicious imo

i wonder how they managed to build that set for the popular video where you see the lighting rig fall down..

considering according to OP's video it wasnt possible to fake the set..

I was around then. It was a hoax. I laugh at the idiots who call the ones who aren't fooled 'dumb'.

Dumb to fall for it.

No dust on the lander gear

Nice photo, but I always wonder why the horizon disapears about 50 yards from the camera. Check out the shadow from the LEM, it ends right at the point where the horizon turns black. Look at how bright the LEM is and explain to me why everything vanishes at the point where the LEMS shadow ends? I can take a picture of my truck in the driveway on a bright day and I will have the town 8 miles away in the background, not in focus but the photo will also not end 100 yards away and go completely black. The moons surface is a light gray and I'm sure the sun is reflecting off the whole surface and there should be more in the background and not have such an abrupt change from bright to total darkness.

If I remember correctly the video images were beamed to and taped in Australia and broadcast to mission control, and the networks did not get a live feed but had to take the images off of a monitor in mission control. The original tapes have since been lost. One of the proudest and most historical achievements in the history of the world, and the original tapes were lost.

Probably studio limits, lol
At the time (1969) no one had home VCR, so they had full control on re-runs etc, and once it was broadcasted most of the people 'bought' it.
The other point is when you look at the entire construct of the LEM it looks very fragile and like a model, compared with the SR-71 that flew in 1966

anyone who believes the 'official' moon landing story is a gullable halfwit.

TPTB couldn't do it then, and they can't do it now.

Clip of Apollo 11 press conference

No need to argue that Saturn V's took off in front of thousands of people, they did.

But that fact alone does not bridge logically to imply that either there were actually astronauts aboard when the rocket launched, or that they completed the mission to the moon to do what was implied. (like a Capricorn One scenario - [link to en.wikipedia.org] )

I'm not taking sides on the moon hoax issue, just stating simple observation in logic, which is related to a straw-man strategy in blogging.
