TG: do you smoke a lot of pot? Do you feel like you have lost control over aspects of your life? Have you suffered any traumatic events recently that might have you searching for answers?
A lot of folk getting drawn into conspiracy stuff seem to fit into one or more of these groups.
TG and friends discuss yet another conspiracy…[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYbCPNBQJ4U[/video]
Close ..but quite obviously that is Birds Angel Delight and not a sponge cake…
Seriously though ..those moon buggy tracks must be two miles wide if we are to believe that ! 8)
For comparison, here is someone zooming in on the moon from Earth (384,400 km away) using a consumer grade camera (the FE’ers camera of choice a Nikon P900):
But but but ..there is no mention of scale ..any idea as to the surface area we are looking at ?
In comparison to the size of some of those craters the tracks look extremely wide ..
I don’t need any mathematical working out to tell me what is obvious from just looking at the picture those tracks are the same width as some of those craters.. 😀
On the image I linked to above the marked scale indicates that 400 pixels = 100 metres.
If you measure the width of the tracks they are about 8 or 9 pixels wide from centre to centre. Which makes them about 2 or 2.25 metres wide. Which sounds about right to me looking at the Apollo 17 LRV:
None ..thanks for taking the time.
I’m still a long way from being convinced though ..but as said earlier I’m not trying to change anyone’s mind ..my own belief lies in the fact that in 1969 technology just wasn’t that far advanced ..even in America
I hope that’s as tongue in cheek as I think it is. Regardless of my pacifist world view, not only were these men service personnel with long and impressive service records, many of them had already served in a conflict zone – Korea.
No hang on a sec that invites an answer ..
It’s generally accepted that Neil Armstrong was the first man to step onto the moon ..but that can’t be true ..it has to be the cameraman who recorded the event .. 😀

Who was Neil Armstrong who triggered the camera that folded out of the equipment bay.

How advanced was the technology to fake it? Seriously, it’d have been easier to put a man on the moon than convince the world they’d done so in a manner that is still credible half a century later.

You’re either trolling or an idiot, and I suspect it’s the former. The camera was mounted on the LM.
It also says that a lanyard had to be pulled to open ..as in not pushed ..you can only pull something from the outside ..it then says that Aldrin pushed a button from the inside to start recording the event ..and a live event at that ..so very simplistic and went without a hitch ..wow !
As I have said all along ..believe what you want I’m not trying to change your mind ..stop trying to change mine ( my last contribution to this thread ..thanks )
It’s a good job I saw the smaller crane building the tower crane outside work on the weekend or come Monday morning I’d have just walked past and had to decide if it was magic or just an optical illusion cause I can’t see any other way to build it.
As a development engineer who spends time with industrial networking and PLC’s/SCADA im fascinated with the level of technology Nasa had and used in their guidance systems and onboard computers at the time of Apollo and the later Shuttle missions. Their knowledge and thinking was absolute cutting at the time and enough to get a man on the moon, end of.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is either a complete stoner or trolling
I think it did happen through sheer effort and bloody mindedness with some real technical effort.
I also think they fabricated fake news to make sure the world and Russia new they did it, which is where the shit photos and poor evidence comes from that drives the conspiracy.
