Over 100,000 working on the Apollo programme. What was in the NDA that they've all kept the secret for 50 years and more?
Spot on Wiz…..some idiots like to jizz themselves over conspiracy theories, it really gets them off….halfwits
Not to mention the Russians never getting wind of it.
Russia and China (amongst others) tracked them all the way there and back again and the landing site is visible to anyone with a decent telescope, the Japanese sent a probe to the Apollo 15 landing site and the images matched NASA's perfectly, we can bounce lasers off the mirrors we left on the moon's surface, the moon rocks have been verified as being from the moon by countless independent countries etc etc...
More like half a million.
Why is it that if you disagree with someone else you have to resort to insults (Half-Wit) rather than debate. Watch the movie its very interesting and only a handfull of people need to be in on the secret not 100,000!! The russians never went neither did the Americans for FIFTY YEARS>
The Russians desperately tried with two separate programs but after Apollo 8 they gave up, they were skint, they did send an unmanned mission but it crashed on the surface.
I love that film but I still believe it happened in 1969. I think if it was made up at the time it would have come out by now.
Exactly. Height of the Cold War. They would have been all over exposing any fraud.
Yep, it's well documented that NASA gave the Apollo 8 astronauts a 50% chance of survival.
It's health and safety gone mad these days.. Probably EU bureaucracy to blame
It’s because I have a sense of humour and a bit of mischief in me. If you can’t work that out easily by yourself then you ARE a halfwit …..not much more I can say.
They didn't go with 'best guess,' they went with the maths.
Same thing, hence they thought 50/50, it's always a guess until you prove it.
All true apart from Germans making the best cars, unless you like engines with all the ancillaries made from brittle plastic.
That is done to reduce weight and ultimately emissions. It’s unfortunate but the plastic parts on the whole are cheap to replace.
Yeah, that's why other car companies don't do it.
IC is inherently crap anyway, too complicated, too unreliable, too polluting, we really shouldn't be building engines these days who's entire function depends on a cheap thin gasket between the top and bottom end.
Hydrogen is the long term solution once we have the infrastructure. EV is an expensive band aid.
Another caveat is I think some believe that it was actually Kubrick himself that helped with the faking! Regardless of how ridiculous the idea of the moon landing being a fake is, the references in The Shining seem more than just coincidence.
There aren't any references though except Danny's jumper, which isn't exactly a rare sight for mid 70s America. All the rest are just typical tacked on confirmation bias conspiracy crap, like the twins must be a reference to Gemini or the carpet looks a bit like the Saturn launch site from above.
Not just the Americans who got involved with German engineering/science post WW2. The revival of Volkswagen at Wolfsburg was largely attributed to the efforts of a British army officer, Major Ivan Hirst.
I remember one point being that Kubrick changed the room number from the novel to the distance to the moon in (hundreds of thousands of) miles, but having just looked it up now the number in the film is Room 237 and the distance to the moon is closer to 239,000 so yeah maybe the connections are more flimsy than I remember.
This is a good example of these kinds of conspiracy theories. There are endless amounts of numbers that could point to the moon landing. The year. The date. The day of the year. The amount of miles, crew members, rockets attatched, days in orbit. Linking one number of significance from anything to one number of significance of the dozens you could choose from the moon landings is easy. Especially when a) it's incorrect in the first placr as you pointed out b) you can manipulate the numbers by showing them backwards, adding them together or subtracting themI remember one point being that Kubrick changed the room number from the novel to the distance to the moon in (hundreds of thousands of) miles, but having just looked it up now the number in the film is Room 237 and the distance to the moon is closer to 239,000 so yeah maybe the connections are more flimsy than I remember.
He had then and still have amazing Engineers. It’s just they had a reason to develop and use technology useful to America. Thankfully the
Yes, but Elvis is alive.
Works in a chippy. Fact.
They'd have to move the swimming pool firstI wonder if the scientists have considered launching the rocket from inside of a mountain. You know, the type where the mountain top opens up...!
It's not recycled PET being used. It's high quality engineering resins like polycarbonate or ABS (same stuff used to make lego...
)
Is this panto? Oh yes he has
