Which do you enjoy more, NASA forgetting to rake out the LEM landing blast crater, or the exploding, no thrust no dust take off?

[/quote] The ones that show signs of formation in low gravity, that have microscopic zap pits from millions of years of cosmic rays, that have never been in contact with liquid water, and were examined by thousands of geologists around the world? Or the rock that ended up in an art museum after a former prime minister's estate ASSUMED it was a Moon rock that has no evidence NASA was ever involved? Or was all that too complicated for you to follow? [/quote] It was too complicated. Somehow thinking that a single mis-identification thus means ALL lunar sample are hoaxes is beyond silly -- yet the hoaxies trot it out all the time. [/quote] Maybe the astroNuts recovered them after they were blown out by the landing blast craters? [/quote] you mean the craters that shouldn't be there anyway? The LLTV, helicopters and harriers all land vertically with more thrust and none of them dig craters. The descent engine was throttled down for landing and its thrust would be spread out over a large engine bell and then spread out more in the vacuum. We DO see though that some loose dust was blown away under the engines. http://www.clavius.org/techcrater.html Probably got too complicated for you again, right? [/quote] Now watch, as DGN gish-gallops to another point... [/quote]
Original Message
Shouldn't they have gradually lifted the model to simulate rocket thrust rather than blowing it up with explosives, and throw some dust under it?
