In the 1960's White men were filmed in Nevada walking in the desert that was set up to resemble the moon, does that count?

is it so surprising that the German geniuses from Operation Paperclip taken from the Third Reich were smart enough to get us there and we can't figure it out again?

pretty much no new fundamental tech has been made since then, just proliferation of the transistor which mysteriously appeared at Bell Labs without a trace a year and a half after the end of ww2

that being said, space and aliens are gay and we have no reason to care about either

Nobody has or ever will really walk on the moon.

Does it comfort you to think this?

[ - ] Panic 3 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 14:12:39 ago (+3/-0)

Comfort? Nah. I WANT TO BELIEVE in many things which aren't so, but foolish me, I study things pretty deeply and most things fall apart upon inspection. Getting through the Van Allen radiation belt in a tin can is just one reason I think it's all hooey. But in my dreams, there is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFlMy48ui9s

Why do you think they couldn't be gone through?

[ - ] Panic 1 point 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 21:09:49 ago (+1/-0)

Couldn't and didn't.

When the space shuttle was put in high orbit, the radiation kept flashing in the eyes of the crew. So bad they couldn't sleep and had trouble concentrating. And the shuttles henceforth were kept in lower orbits. None of this was reported with Apollo missions. Higher up in the radiation zones would have destroyed the crews. Never did because it never happened.

What makes you an expert? The actual experts, who told you about the radiation belt in the first place, mapped it out and charted a course that was safe.

None of this was reported with Apollo missions.

Flashing lights in their eyes were reported by the astronauts in the Apollo missions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_ray_visual_phenomena

First, I'm not a flat-earther and I'm not a fucking retard that doesn't believe that airplanes can fly.

There are some things that bother me with this moon shit. Somehow, using less computing power than a primitive calculator, with calculations based on primitive measurements, extrapolations and guesses, we not only

- found our way to the moon
- put a ship in orbit around it
- put a lander on the surface
- hung around for several days
- took off from the surface
- docked back with the service module
- travelled back to earth

but did it several times without fatalities.

While von Braun, the national socialist, was a very good rocketeer, I'm finding it a wee bit difficult to believe that he got us from the first object in space to a lunar landing and back. With less computing power than a normal calculator.

It wasn't magic, and the process wasn't hidden, and unlike what the moon-hoaxers would say, we didn't lose the technology to get to the moon:

No but I believe you've sucked at least one dick in your lifetime.

Is that faggot paid by the word? I guess he needs to fluff up his tired, old retreads of the usual moon-hoax talking points, like banging on about losing some higher-resolution tapes of the first moon landing. Plenty of high-resolution footage is still available, including astronauts driving on the moon.

Probably, but it wasn’t when they said it happened. Russia put probes on the surface Venus. We’ve got good photography of other planets as well. Space is real, gravity is real, the Earth is a sphere. The US essentially cheated and lied about getting there when they did. I think it took a few years longer than the official story claims.

Muh greatest achievement nonsense from the nasa fanbois eating at the trough of bullshit propaganda.

Achieve something with your life stop riding the curtail of the lies crafted for boomers sitting in front of their tvs.

Retarded, shit-flinging monkeys that can't imagine White men doing great things.

So you disagree with the argument that productions made for mass viewing by the population are propaganda to reinforce an approval of government actions?

[ - ] chrimony [op] 0 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 11:48:21 ago (+0/-0)

Do you drive on interstate highways?

[ - ] FacelessOne 5 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 11:50:39 ago (+5/-0)

I'll take your deflection as a sign of your submission to the basic fact that productions made for mass viewing of the citizenry are indeed propaganda pieces that require no basis of fact in reality so long as they served the purposes of the government.

[ - ] chrimony [op] -1 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 11:55:26 ago (+0/-1)

It's not a deflection. The interstate highways was a federal project of immense scale that everybody benefits from. Do you "approve" of this government action?

[ - ] FacelessOne 4 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 12:35:07 ago (+4/-0)

The highway system didn't require propaganda to believe it happened.

Romans didn't need to put out flyers about their road networks to attract caravaners.

Your logic is to be expected for someone who believes TV.

[ - ] chrimony [op] 0 points 3 monthsJan 21, 2024 12:41:18 ago (+0/-0)

The highway system didn't require propaganda to believe it happened.

Neither does the Apollo program. There's video and photos of the event. Giant rockets were launched. Dozens of astronauts. What's your complaint? That there was publicity around it? That they took videos? That they publicized a historic achievement? You're just being a retard.

Your logic is to be expected for someone who believes TV.

You don't have any logic except to throw shit like the retarded monkey that you are.

JUST WATCH THE PROPAGANDA IT HAS TO BE TRUE IT WAS ON TV!!!!! REEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Did they fake the rocket too, retard? What were all the thousands of people working on the project doing? Why, after all these decades, has there been no leak? How is it, given all the videos and photos, that not one irrefutable fuck-up has been found?

You can spot bullshit in any Hollywood movie, but we're supposed to believe they faked the moon landings using 1969-early 1970s technology but without irrefutable evidence that they did so.

Keep on flinging shit, retarded monkey.

LOL. No, that's definitely deflection.

No, that's just you being a retard.

First off, the Federal Government didn't build the interstate highway system. It stole the idea and the techniques from the Germans' earlier system, Next, the feds took our stolen tax money and paid it to the states, who paid it to contractor companies. So, nope to the government building anything. It was done by local companies.

But you may be on to something OP: When the federal government builds an interstate highway to the moon, I'll want to take that ride, tolls be damned. And I can make the trip, being good at holding my breath waiting for government to evercdo anything good or well.

Translation: You're debating over semantics. 1) I didn't say the feds invented the highway system. 2) Everybody knows the feds runs on taxes. 3) And even if they contract out the work, it's the feds that made the project happen.

But you may be on to something OP: When the federal government builds an interstate highway to the moon, I'll want to take that ride, tolls be damned. And I can make the trip, being good at holding my breath waiting for government to evercdo anything good or well.

My point was valid. People are generally glad the interstate highways were built, and they are used a lot. The retard arguing with me was taking the angle that the fed could do nothing but output propaganda to gain approval.

Now since you've changed threads and haven't replied in your Van Allen radiation belt thread, I'll take that as admission of defeat.
