Cool Video. Who would have thought traveling to outer space could be such a profound experience? Let the shills come out..

Re: Some Strange Things Are Happening To Astronauts Returning To Earth
the recognition of "we live in a planet" would alone blow my mind. that moment when I see this massive ball in such a sobering tiny object in space. very fucking real. cosmic perspective and how we are all here together. humanity re-defined.

And your proof of these "LIE" is where??.. Cause I would think you had your own mind and was capable of discerning that which you have been shown to be either from fiction or fact but with proof of it being that. But like you and probably others out there who want to believe that we never went to space and the moon hoax yada yads...That is okay. Because to you the epitome of mankind is one who does not dare venture outside its own comfort zone. To you it does not matter what proof we have on this subject of space exploration and how it is/ and has been possible. To you the why not and did not supersedes.

Wow don't be so closed up. This had nothing to do with the moon landing' your missing the point and the adventure through them. What blew me away was they saw the sun as a star. Seeing it against the black space, pretty cool. Cool and interesting vid, thanks.

You are correct that the first bit they did say "when we went to the moon....." BUT IF YOU WOULD HAVE continued to listen... He then went on so say we actually never landed on the moon, but we circled the moon!!!!

So no one LIED, worth watching the whole video... and then you can actually think for yourself!!!!! hf

Re: Some Strange Things Are Happening To Astronauts Returning To Earth
Even flying in a light aircraft gives a whole different prospective on life.

A trip that would take 2 hours by car is 20 minutes by plane. You look down on all the activity below like a god. Once you land it's back to a snail pace. A two or three mile walk taking longer than 150 mile flight.

We quickly start taking these things for granted such as the motor car.

Spend a (hard) day digging / tilling the soil, then compare what a machine can do. We don't know we are born!

To stop the lying, it crossed my mind too as to why neil armstrong and crew gave such a flat unemotional interview upon returning from the moon - i wish one astronaut would stand up and tell the truth -- oh i forgot 3 who died on base in a fire were going to -- what a shamed nasa couldn't save them

Re: Some Strange Things Are Happening To Astronauts Returning To Earth
I read a report on the brain and learned some facts that I won't ever forget.

1- There are only 2 types of a deep black viewed that has a profound, unique effect on the mind. One is space and the other is the mammal eye. (including humans obviously) 99.999999999% of humans will not see true deep space. No tv will ever recreate it.

Our brains go into a strong form of activity not fully understood during such engagements of the eye.

It is theorized to be primarily a method of enhancing our memory when we are viewing another person, enhancing subconscious social structuring.


The other is when we perceive a face in an inanimate object, our brain is resolving mental stress in the neurons. Doesn't happen when viewing a real face. It only happens when a person looks at a cloud and imagines a face.

Theorized to be another control factor in subconscious social structuring.

I would not be surprised astronauts have unique mental "disorders" (or more like malfunctions in a healthy brain).

Absolutely. I've always wondered what it feels like to be... so free... away from our superfluity and excess of annoyances, and just in space, viewing our planet. It must be a profound experience.
Everything is an opinion - subjective at that. The question is, do you realize everything is an opinion, or are you under the illusion that you are fact?

Stop the lying indeed. Dave McGowan is a fucking liar.

That you think that article is good tells me just how ignorant you are of Apollo and spaceflight in general.

Just a couple quick points, at one point he claims that the spacesuits could not have dealt with the temperature extremes on the moon. The spacesuits today use the same basic systems and principles for thermal regulation, and have to deal with temperature extremes just as wide on the exterior of ISS for up to about 6~8 hours at a time. They still use a combination of insulation, high reflectivity, and water ice porous plate sublimators to keep the astronauts at a safe temperature. Space is a better vacuum than anything we can achieve in a lab on earth, and as such it acts as an insulator as well. There is no thermal conduction by convection in space, only by direct contact and irradiation. The spacesuits are well insulated and their porous plate sublimators also carry away excess heat via evaporative cooling (though in space it's really sublimative cooling). By claiming the spacesuits are evidence of a hoax, he is effectively claiming that they're evidence ISS is a hoax as well.

He also flat-out lies in some places. For instance, he claims that the space shuttles had just as much fuel as a Saturn V. Bullshit. The Saturn V had twice as much fuel as a space shuttle, and the mass that returned to earth (which plays into the payload fraction) was much lower than that of a space shuttle. A common saying in orbital mechanics is that low earth orbit is "halfway to anywhere." This saying refers to the fact that once you reach low earth orbit, you have spent about half the delta-V required to reach escape velocity. The Saturn V had enough fuel to boost them to the moon and they had more than enough fuel to get back.

Another lie occurs here where he uses this image to suggest that you should be able to see stars in the images alongside the sun:
[link to davesweb.cnchost.com]
What he doesn't tell you is that this is a composite image. You cannot properly expose the sun, the solar corona, and the stars all at the same time.
"Accurate for the exact time of today's Solstice, this composite image also shows the Sun at the proper scale" - which takes you here:
[link to www.astropix.com]
The links to Jerry's images on his own site are now broken, but the text tells the story.
"This is where the Sun is located in the daytime on the Solstice, although you can't normally see the other stars because of the Sun's overwhelming brilliance!"
"It is the Sun, to correct scale, in its exact location at the moment of the Summer Solstice, superimposed on a nighttime shot of the stars."

Don't trust that fucking liar known as Dave McGowan.
