  1. Telescope resolution isn't based on distance. It's based on how large the objects are at that distance, how many degrees across. All of those distant objects Hubble sees are MASSIVE. Think of it this way: How far away can you see a mountain? Now how far away can you see a flea?

  2. Um... they're going into orbit, which is parallel to the ground.
    21
  3. "Randomly?" What the blazes makes you think it's "randomly added"? They would have put aside weight capacity for rocks before they even left Earth.

  4. Nobody took that picture. The pictures of the astronaut coming down was Aldrin taken by Armstrong The video of the first step was from an unmanned camera attached to the ship.

  5. It folded up into a storage compartment on the lower half of the ship, which you can see them unloading in the Apollo 15 footage, and it didn't use fuel. It was battery-powered.

  6. It's not. It's wrapped in mylar and kapton (which look like foil), industrially used insulation materials which are/were used to make hypothermia blankets, portable fire shelters, aircraft insulation, cryogenics wiring, and proximity suits that make the "extreme heat" on the moon look like Antarctica. You can also see this same "tin foil" on satellites.

  7. I mean.... considering taht Bart repeatedly lied to them, insulted them, and harassed them to the point of committing crimes....
    6
  8. .... they didn't? It's only designed for two people - the third doesn't land - and the lander folds up like a Transformer action figure and was in a equipment bay on the lower half of the ship, not inside the cabin. There's videos of it being removed that the hoaxers for some reason (wonder why) never show.
    6
  9. We have. It took us all of five seconds to notice that the hoaxers chopped off the rest of his answer where he's clearly talking about returning, not not having gone the first time.

  10. America is also greedy, and there's no way to actually make a profit from that. The cost of building and maintaining a colony in a place with no food, air, or water would quickly lead to bankruptcy.
    5
  11. They did. You immediately lied and claimed they were fake too.
    5
  12. Bart also harassed the astronauts to the point the Armstrong had to call the police. He wasn't punched because he asked him to swear. He was punched because he called Buzz hundreds of miles out of his way pretending to be from a children's show, tried to physically prevent him from leaving, and chased him through the street hurling insults. Three of the other astronauts swore. You pretend they didn't because that's how honest you are.

  13. The moon also has no air, meaning if you jump six feet in the air, fail to stick the landing, and tear your suit, crack your helmet, or break your life support pack, you instantly die. First thing that Aldrin does after getting off the ship, by the way, is casually jump three feet back onto the ladder, fail to catch the rung, slow fall back down, and do it again.
    5
  14. .... and you believe the "True Story" from a man that got caught red-handed faking evidence over a decade ago?
    5
  15. .... a permanent city that can't sustain itself because there's no food, air, or water on the moon?
    5
  16. Why didn't you mention that the punch came after Bart called him hundreds of miles out of his way, trying to physically prevent him from leaving, and chased him through the streets hurling insults?

  17. Bart got caught editing his "smoking gun" to mute audio and skip over parts of the footage that outright disproved him over ten years ago. This includes shots of them filming without his trick within seconds of clips he used. There's a reason he doesn't let people comment on his channel.

  18. No. Meteorites show obvious signs of heat damage from burning upon entry.

  19. You'd need about 10 liters by those calculations. Liquid oxygen takes up less than 1/800th of the volume of room temperature gas

  20. Has anyone ever watched the press conference from Gemini 8? Armstrong acts exactly the same as he does after Apollo 11, three years in advance. I would love to see a body language expert analyze one of the interviews with your "truth" leaders. Don't tell them that your fraud movement has been caught lying for years and see how long it takes them to notice.

  21. The moon is low weight, not weightless. It doesn't have air, which means it will immediately settle because there's no air resistance to stop it from falling back to the ground just like everything else does.
    4
  22. A breeze coming from.... where? A wall vent, low to the ground, dozens of feet away??? Or perhaps a floor vent that's invisible under the dust? Neither of which are blowing the dust around? It was swinging because an object that is not dropped straight 90 degrees down will rock back and forth like a pendulum when released. It was removed because they were looking for something they thought might have been inside of it.

  23. Bick.... you got played for a sap. Bart LIED about them pretending to be against the window, then skipped over a segment of footage SECONDS afterwards where NASA asks them to prepare for interior shots, the astronauts acknowledge, and you can watch the Earth shrink as they did. The only person claiming that it was supposedly against the window is Bart himself. He LIED about the astronauts not knowing they were filming, then muted the audio so you couldn't hear them openly discussing it. The "cutout" trick doesn't even work; if the astronauts were in orbit, the clouds and landmasses outside would be moving at a visibly high rate of speed as the ship.... you know.... circles the Earth and the clips are long enough that at the minimum speed to stay in orbit, they would have crossed entire oceans or continents. Oh, and there's a sequence less than 20 seconds after a clip he uses where the where the camera zooms out and you can see it sitting a foot from the window before crossing to film the Earth out a different window. He continues to push this because he knows that you people will immediately believe everything he says.

  24. Um... it's in use on spacecraft and suits. You do realize that any sort of temperature management you build for use in a vacuum doesn't work in an atmosphere, right? Also.... probes and spacewalks were already taking photographs un a vacuum years before Apollo.
    4
  25. Photographs are not size accurate. Your lens and zoom will make objects look larger or smaller than they do to the naked eye and wide angle lenses make background objects shrink.

  26. You should watch the footage of them driving in the rover. You can watch minute after minute of the horizon looking super close, but they never reach it and you can watch hundreds of thousands of rocks come into focus.
    4
  27. 1. Nobody. The camera was attached to the ship. 2. Because you need to throttle down your ship when you land otherwise you go UP, gas expands in a vacuum, and the amount of pressure you exert is divided by the area. Also, dust clouds don't form in a vacuum. without air resistance, the dust will be flung away from the ship, not loiter there. Fun fact, Armstrong himself points out the lack of a crater almost immediately after getting off so they clearly know it should be there. 3. The lower half of the ship has equipment bays on it and the rover folds up like a Transformers action figure. Apollo 15 has video of it being removed. 4. The rover has a turret on it allowing the camera to be controlled by remote; remote control is much, much older than Apollo. Again, billowing dust clouds do not form in a vacuum; what we do see in the film is the dust kicked up in a gray haze. 5. Most of the "no response time" is either the astronauts talking to each other or mission control talking to them, which will have no delay because mission control is the one recording. There's also plenty of instances where the astronauts talk over the mission control as though they're not hearing them in real time. 6. You are aware that they crossed through the belts in the big chonky cone-shaped part of the ship, not the lander right? And that the hoaxers have been lying about the belts for 20 years right?
    4
  28. And why the hoaxers cut off the rest of his response where he talks about why they stopped going BACK.

  29.  @theEWDSDS  I like to imagine the formula's based on Beetlejuice, not Betelgeuse. Or maybe a bazelgeuse in which case it's definitely going supernova.

  30. Ahahahahahahahaha. Oh wait, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. A NDA is a piece of paper that says that you'll be in serious trouble if you break it. It's not a magical geis that supernaturally causes you to be unable to break it.

  31. Okay, but he "revealed the truth" 20-30 years beforehand. He'd have died faster if he stood in the path of a glacier.
    4
  32. Sure, I guess, if you ignore the large cone sticking out the back of the service module.

  33. Year old footage..... with a phone call from Nixon who not only wasn't in office at the time, but was losing in the polls to Humphrey at the time when the fake landing was supposedly filmed.
    4
  34. Actually somebody does. Neil Armstrong, less than two minutes after climbing off the ladder.

  35. Rick..... dust doesn't float in a vacuum. It floats on Earth because the air is holding it up. Without air resistance, it will immediately drop like it's made of lead.
    3
  36. ..... so why did NASA not design a realistic-looking ship? This "cheap fake' is only saving pennies out of the billions they're supposedly stealing. It would cost them a lot more to pay every single engineer on the planet to stay quiet for the rest of eternity than to make a better model.
    3
  37. A camera attached to the ship, and a camera attached to the rover. Awww, did you think you were smarter than the big evil villains.

  38. Apollo 13s LEM burned up in the Earth's atmosphere, because they used its power on the return.

  39. There's an antenna on the pack.

  40. Pssssst: Let me let you in on a little secret. The "inches/feet" of lead is made up. The belts are the wrong type of radiation for lead. Putting heavy metals in beta radiation CREATES secondary radiation.

  41. Your cellphone can't move more than about a foot when you put it on vibrate. Have you tried attaching a multi billion dollar rocket to it?

  42. Wing or Lift Up.

  43. If the moon were low enough to the ground that you could see clouds through it (as opposed to the clouds being drowned out by the brighter object on the footage), it would be less than 50 miles off the ground. That's low enough that it would never appear high in the sky and would be close to the horizon most of the time for anybody more than a few hundred miles away.

  44. So fun fact. Did any of the hoaxers ever tell you that before the mission. Aldrin had a big fight with NASA because they switched who was going to be the First Man? Under previous protocols it should have been him and he accused them of making excuses to make it Armstrong instead. I wonder if that's why he looks incredibly bitter during part of it.

  45. So, who exactly are these scientists? Surely you have an actual source for this and aren't just blindly parroting Bart Sibrel, a man who literally got caught faking his evidence.

  46. Rockets don't push on things. They operate via a law of physics called the Conservation of Momentum which states that the momentum of a system (mass x velocity) remains constant until an outside force changes it. This means that if you take an object, and expel part of its mass in one direction, the rest of the mass will accelerate in the other direction proportional to the rate and direction it's lost so that A + B = Original.

  47. .... since when did they have weighted boots? That's 2001, A Space Odyssey, not Apollo.
    3
  48. They did. The hoaxers lie and claim it doesn't exist. Because the orbiter is designed for taking wide-area topography maps, not zooming in on small objects.
    3
  49. An unmanned camera attached to the ship on a drop-down equipment storage panel.

  50. You know, it's awfully funny that despite "many viewers reporting seeing it", only one person actually claims to have themselves and she is obviously lying because she forgot that nighttime in the UK, where her interviewer lives, is daytime in Australia, then pretended to have "stayed up late and it was gone in the morning."
