What - no thread about how the moon landings were faked?

Is that Andy Kaufman? 

Yes!

Did anyone else here watch episode 104 of MythBusters? It's based "on the urban legend/conspiracy theory which claims that NASA never landed men on the moon, and instead the achievement was intentionally faked for one reason or another." Some of the comments posted there at the end sound like some people will still go on believing that NASA never really landed on the moon.

How could the astronauts have survived the INTENSE SOLAR RADIATION? Well, probably the same way we haven't all been broiled by our microwave ovens.

[Elgarian]

47 unspecified individuals.

Exactly so. Thanks Mike. 47 unspecified individuals programmed the bot that fakes newman's posts. However, I can now reveal that they are unspecified because of a CONSPIRACY of silence. Recent careful research has shown that they are all failed lunar astronauts, de-frocked Mozart scholars, and Flat Earth Society members.

Or so they want us to think.

[Elgarian]

One thing is quite certain - no one here invests your opinion on such a question with even the least weight.

Even less so, on the moon, Karl. About 83% less.

[robnewman]

I don't have to. The Apollo missions lasted only a few days to two weeks. Those guys were never out there long enough to absorb a meaningful dosage.

For f&%k's sake! Does anything I write ever penetrate that ball of meat you wear on your shoulders? Can you please explain to the rest of us how you think that heat is transmitted from the lunar surface to the other objects in a vacuum? Never mind that all landings occurred during the lunar "morning" which lasts several days, so the temperature was nowhere near the lunar "midday" top heat.

A turnip has greater mental capacities than you! Now go wank off somewhere else if all you're gonna do is continue reproducing the same nonsense just to massage your narcissistic ego about your presumed intellectual superiority to the rest of us "sheep".

O Mensch,

All we need now are a few volunteers to go into outer space protected by a sheet of aluminium for several weeks from deadly solar radiation. Fools !

Look - the Van Allen Belt is NOT the source of Solar Radiation. Get it yet ? In fact, the Van Allen Belt is a belt of dust and other material that PROTECTS the Earth FROM Solar Radiation. Right

Which part of this message do you NOT understand

Solar Radiation (like sunlight) comes from..................................THE SUN..................OK ?

2. Regardless of when the Apollo crew landed on the moon the Solar Radiation (which would already have fried them alive in outer space) would continue to fry them alive BECAUSE THERE IS NO ATMOSPHERE ON THE MOON.

Hello !!!!! ?

3. The sunlight on the lunar surface would heat up the lunar surface by several hundred degrees. Right ?? That means that anything in contact with the lunar surface would be heated by several hundred degrees.

If you don't believe me try this -

Temperatures on the Lunar surface vary widely on location. Although beyond the first few centimeters of the regolith the temperature is a nearly constant -35 C (at a depth of 1 meter), the surface is influenced widely by the day-night cycle. The average temperature on the surface is about 40-45 C lower than it is just below the surface.

In the day, the temperature of the Moon averages 107 C, although it rises as high as 123 C. The night cools the surface to an average of -153 C, or -233 C in the permanently shaded south polar basin. A typical non-polar minimum temperature is -181 C (at the Apollo 15 site).

The Lunar temperature increases about 280 C from just before dawn to Lunar noon. Average temperature also changes about 6 C betwen aphelion and perihelion

Now, will you tell us how the Apollo crew withstood the intense bursts of SOLAR RADIATION they would be subjected to in outer space between the Earth and the Moon ? And will you tell us how they and their landing craft were not boiled during daylight on the moon ?

Let's see, maybe it was a special kind of aluminium cooking paper, right ? Hollywood Paper, perhaps

I'm not entering into a dialogue here, but duty compels me to provide a way out for innocent visitors to the thread.

The issues concerning solar radiation and their effect on astronauts aren't simple, and the radiation takes a variety of forms. Some forms are easily blocked; some less so. Duration of exposure is a crucial factor (as with exposure to radioactivity, or X-rays, for instance). The dangers of high intensity radiation at times of solar flare activity are recognised, though not fully understood. There's no 'conspiracy' evidence in all this. Some easily googled material can be found here, from what seem to be reliable sources:

robnewman here as well?

Well I should have guessed that 2 conspiracies wouldn't be enough.

[Rod Corkin]

GMG is surely now the Nr1 classical music/conspiracy forum of all time! I can't remember the moon landing issue generating such a discussion anywhere else. I venture the Kennedy assassination as the next topic, in fact both Kennedy assassinations!

Let's not forget the holocaust - I'm sure Rob can offer some new and interesting dimensions on this.

[robnewman]

Yes, I offer the controversial view that it (the Holocaust) took place. That the FACT of the Holocaust has been swept under the carpet by Catholic Poland and by the wider world because it exposes, or tends to expose, the evils of our society and the lengths to which men in high places can live in denial of it. The Holocaust proves beyond reasonable doubt that men can and will believe anything. That they can live in denial of such a massive reality. And often do. The denial of the Holocaust is proof positive of man choosing, often, to be ignorant. It's a wicked thing that men should waste their time denying what is so clearly documented from so many angles and what was, undoubtedly, one of the greatest crimes against humanity. Testimony too, to the power of the mass media, and of the need for an independent media.

I am so pleased for Newman. He is thoroughly in his element here 

Check the olive oil!

Professor Karl Henning is pleased for me. Yes, I am in my element here in exposing the frauds and deceptions that are so much a part of the modern world. Holocaust denial is a kind of insanity.

Since this thread is on the Faked Moon Landings the following is dedicated to Prof. Karl Henning, that champion of common sense -

That proves that the moon landings didn't happen? That's not even Neil Armstrong's voice. This video was even mentioned earlier in this thread because of how hilarious it was (is).

Indeed @ moon-fakery. Thank god we have some people willing to expose the truth, regardless of ridicule from the brain-washed sheep.

Some moons are smaller than an elephant. Just not our own. 

[Rod Corkin]

Some moons are smaller than an elephant. Just not our own.  

Such small sub-elephant sized bodies in space would not be recognised as 'moons' by any official astronomical organisation or authority, hence Pluto is now not officially regarded as a planet for similar reasons despite, as far as I recall, being bigger than an elephant.

Joe Campbell,

This film comes from NASA. Where else do you think it comes from ?  It comes from a time when these events were being set up. Rehearsed.

Answers on a postcard please ?

LOL

Does THIS help, perhaps ?
