  4. Esthersar: "Whatever method that would show clear pictures to prove they were on the moon would be a good start." They took about 7,000 photos from the lunar surface, and about 110,000 photos from lunar orbit. And, as I've told you before (and you ignored), I don't consider ANY of them as proof that they went to the moon. Photos can be faked. Not that it's reasonable to fake 118,000 photos, but, whatever. I have given you a small sample of the best evidence for Apollo before, and you've always just rejected it without even reading it. In one ear, out the other, and you told me it wasn't worth reading. So, don't sit there and pretend you want evidence. You want to AVOID evidence. And, you have made your conclusions before you ever even asked one of your dishonest questions. All you've ever done is shift the goalposts. You say you want to see XYZ (thinking it doesn't exist), then, when I show it to you, you just change it and ask for something else. You did the same here (again). You said they never took photos of the stars. I gave you the photos of the stars, you then said they were too blurry for you (somehow claiming they never even took the photos, while also saying they took the photos but they were too blurry). And, I asked you to name how they should have done the 125 Carruthers photos. You refuse to answer. Instead, you just said they should have proved they were there? Sorry, but nobody cared to sit there and compose "proof" so that a barely literate hoax nut 50 years later could see something. They took the photos they were supposed to take. All you're ever going to do is stick your head in the sand and pretend they didn't.

  9. Oh, and let's not forget how many messages it even took for you to admit ANYTHING about those photos. You kept maintaining that no such photos were even taken, ever, blurry or not. Then, when they were pointed out to you, you still said that they never took the photos, but that those photos were blurry. It took about a dozen more messages to get you to even admit that the photos were taken. Then, you insisted that I never gave you the catalog numbers. I repeatedly reminded you that I did give you those catalog numbers, and I even proved it by saying that you quoted from my very message that had the catalog numbers. And, now you're claiming that the catalog numbers I provided were still blurry (they weren't). Talk about shifting the goalposts. Talk about making it impossible to have a dialog. As I predicted many message ago, you were just going to deny the photos were real anyway, so, the fact that you demand people go look up photos for you is outlandish. No matter what was in those photos, you were going to call them fake anyway. So, this is why it's so ridiculous to listen to liars like you, asking for things that will make no difference whatsoever on what you believe. I even told you repeatedly, in this thread and others, that I don't even consider the photographic evidence to be all that relevant for proof of Apollo. I said it's ridiculous to think they faked 118,000 photos, but, whatever, photos are just photos, and the best proof is elsewhere. I've provided you some of that proof (in other threads), and your only reply was that you said that you were refusing to read it. Prove you looked at the Carruthers photos. One of the catalog numbers I gave you was 1f126. Tell me something about that photo that would make it clear that you had even looked at it, such as maybe identifying where on the photo the brightest stars were located, or other such defining characteristics that could prove you even looked at it.

  12.  @Cliffmchrist  Apollo's moon missions ended in 1972. The remaining Apollo programs (Skylab and Apollo Soyuz) ended in 1975. So, in the post Apollo era, if we adjust into 2021 dollars (the adjustment is made on the Wiki page for NASA's annual budget, for whatever that's worth), here are the numbers: Ford hands Carter a NASA budget of $17.9 billion for the 1977 year. Carter ends his term and hands Reagan a budget of $16.5 billion for 1981 (decreased by $1.4 billion under Carter). Reagan hands Bush Sr. an annual budget of $24.1 billion (increased by $7.6 billion under Reagan). Bush Sr. hands Clinton $26.8 billion for 1993 (increased by $2.7 billion under Bush). Clinton hands Bush Jr. $21.6 billion for 2001 (decreased by $5.2 billion under Clinton). Bush Jr. hands Obama $22.5 billion for 2009 (increased by $0.9 billion under Bush Jr.). Obama hands Trump $21.6 billion for 2017 (decreased by $0.9 billion under Obama). Trump hands Biden $23.3 billion for 2021 (increased by $1.7 billion under Trump). As for the rest of your position, about how this relates to the percentage of the federal budget, I don't really care. If the Fed increased their budget to a hypothetical $900 trillion, and gave NASA only 0.1% of it (a massive decrease in percentage of the federal budget), it's still $900 billion, which is still an astronomical increase when compared to the $23.3 billion. Percentage goes down dramatically, but actual spending money is about 40x more than ever. I'm not saying that's a realistic comparison, but, I'm illustrating the point about why the percentage of the entire budget is nowhere near as relevant as just the inflationary figures. And, given that you believe I reject Apollo, sorry, but I just don't have any faith in anything you say at this point. Not that you can really "offend" me, but, it just shows that you're not thinking straight overall. I've defended Apollo in these comments for years. And, you came here (other thread) and accused me of believing Apollo was a hoax. Your mind is lost.

  14.  @xpez9694  YOU SAID: "he is facing downhill so that makes him leaning FORWARD LIKE THAT EVEN MORE LIKELY HE WOULD FALL OVER..." MAKES HIM LEANING FORWARD LIKE THAT EVEN MORE LIKELY HE WOULD FALL OVER. . read that again and again until you understand english......" == He DID fall over!!! And, I'm not the one with the English problem here, dummy. YOU SAID: "at @ 35:00 he is facing downhill or uphill?? == Fairly uphill. Not 100% directly, but, yeah, uphill. YOU SAID: "@ 34:53 he is facing 90 degrees up hill or downhill??" == He is kind of facing perpendicular to the uphill/downhill, but, he's also on his knees, on the ground. YOU SAID: "so which direction is uphill all directions?" == Dummy, I told you to go watch the entire sequence, not just these few seconds. Have you done that? Or, have you shoved your head up your own behind, and you're doubling down on your massive stupidity? YOU SAID: "Mr. CHIPMUNK all directions cant be uphill." == Dummy, he only turned about 90 degrees between 34:53 and 35:00. Good grief. YOU SAID: "you are ignoring clearly something weird in the video" == No, I know not to watch 7 seconds of video, and then think I understand everything from that. You, apparently, don't know that much. You watch 7 seconds of video, and think you can understand everything from that. All you need to do is watch all of the original footage. Yes, sometimes they parked on a slope, which messes up the camera angles. I've been through this rodeo many times with you conspiratards. NONE of you people watch the original footage. NONE of you people ever look at the lunar surface terrain maps, and cross compare with these videos. They were at that stop for like 20 minutes or something (don't recall exactly, and I'm not looking it up for your sake, but, something like that, yes). If you watch all of the original footage from that stop, it becomes much more clear. But, you obviously haven't done it, so, spare me your silly questions. You don't know what you're talking about. And, you were the one claiming that people lean forward (relative to the terrain) when they're walking downhill, remember?? You are BACKWARD!!! A person leans backward (relative to the terrain) when going downhill. You can't even get basic vectors right. YOU SAID: "and just claiming one direction is up hill but if he turns the other way and still gets up the same way then turns back originally how can the gravity be the same on a flat plane that is angled in one direction as a slope that looks flat..HUH???" == He only turned 90 degrees in those 7 seconds you're outlining, dumdum. Not 180 degrees. YOU SAID: "I dont care if you insult me" == Good. You shouldn't. You're insulting the 450,000 people who worked on Apollo for a decade of their lives, and calling thousands of them (a) criminal frauds who would get a lifetime in prison for the crimes you're accusing them of, and (b) too stupid to figure out which way a camera is pointing. YOU SAID: "but the heart of the argument I was making is still valid!" == Then WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON YOUTUBE!?!!!!?!?! Fame and fortune are at your fingertips!!!! PROVE YOUR CLAIM!!!! Submit your calculations via the scientific method!!! Demonstrate that you're correct!!! I mean, this is the most amazing part about you conspiratards... you think you have these "gotcha" moments that the entire world has never recognized, including enemy countries that would LOVE to disprove Apollo (if they could). Yet, the most you clods ever do is make conspiracy videos (no scrutiny whatsoever), or make YouTube comment postings. Not a single one of you will ever put your claims to the test of the scientific method. Or, rather, I should say, yeah, a handful of them have tried. But, those fail every single time. But, you paranoid delusional illiterate YouTube warriors never do. I can't even get you to watch the original footage, let alone can I get you to write a scientific paper to back up your assertions. YOU SAID: "watch video... yesterday I wrote this message for you after you made bullying remarks to me." == Bullying?? Good gods, what a snowflake. Dummy, I do not condone violence or bullying. But, if someone (like you) accuses thousands of people of being criminals, based upon ignorance, yes, I'm going to spell out my exact assessment of that person's intellectual capacity. Let's face reality here: you're not the brightest bulb. You know it. I know it. Stop pretending otherwise. And, if you want to come to a public comments forum, and display your ignorance to the world, that's your own problem, not mine. YOU SAID: "he is leaning upward on the hill." == When he's on two feet (right before falling), yes. When he's on all fours, on the ground, at the other timestamp you mentioned, he's 90 degrees off from that, basically a bit sideways on the slope. YOU SAID: "okay (must be an optical illusion like others have stated...)" == Yes. So, what's your beef? Why all the arguing, if you understand that the camera sometimes plays tricks on the human eye when it's on a slope, and when the video quality isn't exactly HD, and perspective matters? Why? If you now understand that things like this can appear like an optical illusion, why are you kicking and screaming? YOU SAID: "Then @@ he is leaning forward but towards 90 degrees to the left... So ​ @rockethead7 explain that." == Sounds like you just explained it yourself. Great job ignoring all of the rest of the stuff, by the way. It's what you conspiratards do best. You focus on little items you think you're correct about (you never are). And, when faced with stuff that shatters your delusions, you ignore it, and change topics.

  17.  @xpez9694  YOU SAID: "Anytime you call someone a name thats bullying." == Wow, you're one fragile snowflake, aren't you? No, dummy. Calling someone a name isn't bullying. If so, I'd have been banned from YouTube a decade ago, for the 8927349240793875903 reports to YouTube from dummies just like you, who report me to YouTube for bullying them. Thus far, I've never even had a single warning. YOU SAID: "You are overly pedantic and you think you can just copy and paste what someone says over and over" == Well, this basically proves you're not even reading what I'm writing. I told you, I didn't copy and paste from anybody besides myself. YOU SAID: "Yes 90 degree turn leaned over is enough to make a huge difference in whether or not you are leaning into a hillside. Its actually impossible. go try it in a driveway or on a steep street. lean as you would to stay upright in the first position. Now turn 90 degrees with your body leaned at the same angle..you will not be able stand up without bending your knees one side to compensate. You can do this as a thought experiment. You do know what a thought experiment is genius right?? Think your brain can manage that little exercise. And you mentioned the possibility of an optical illusion. Which is fine. i can see that.. but what throws that off is the fact that he turns position and is still leaned over the same way... Now that throws all of that into question." == No, dummy. You are taking a whopping 7 seconds of video, in which the astronaut is FALLING DOWN (thus, it's already very skewed), and then you're comparing what would happen in EARTH gravity. Good grief. The man was on his hands and knees, in 1/6th gravity, on a slope. And, again, I'm not explaining this again. Go watch the original videos, you utterly pathetic dolt!!! What's wrong with you? How many times must you be told the same thing? You're not going to get a very comprehensive idea about what's happening from 7 seconds of video when the astronaut is in the act of falling down. Good grief. Furthermore, the center of mass is off on astronauts to begin with, due to the PLSS. And, again, what are you doing on YouTube? I don't matter at all, dummy. You can scream at the wind until the cows come home in YouTube comments, nobody cares. If you have something to prove, WRITE IT UP!!!! SUBMIT IT TO JOURNALS!!!! What's wrong with you? Why can you not understand this? YOU SAID: "Telling me I am ignoring the other stuff...what other stuff." == Is your "scroll up" broken? YOU SAID: "But you just feel like throwing insults and copying and pasting is somehow going to make your point stronger." == Dummy, I'm insulting you BECAUSE YOU ARE AN IGNORAMUS. You deserve it. And, I copied and pasted because just a day or two ago, I had answered the identical question. It doesn't change the content. You're still ignoring it. Would it matter if I had written the same thing twice, vs. copying and pasting it? Would that somehow change the content? What's wrong with you? YOU SAID: "You are the most obnoxious person I have read giving comments." == Good gods. I don't care, dummy. YOU are the one accusing 450,000 people of being involved with worldwide fraud, based upon the inability to recognize when an astronaut is on a slope. Don't tell ME that I am obnoxious. Look in the mirror. YOU SAID: "If you go back and read I was never outright insulting to you" == I really don't care whether you insult me or not. I am of absolutely no consequence. You are insulting 450,000 people. Dummy, you are still avoiding the content of the rest of the messages in this thread. People like you are amazingly pathetic. It doesn't matter if it comes from me, or comes from someone else. The content is the same either way. And, you're still avoiding it. Look, you utter imbecile, this is what you need to do: forget YouTube comments. Just demonstrate your claims via the scientific method. That's really what this boils down to. But, I'll warn you, when you submit your analysis of 7 seconds of video for review, the very first objection will be that YOU NEVER WATCHED THE ENTIRE ORIGINAL VIDEO!!! Good gods. You sure are proud to be stupid.

  30.  @arelortal6580  Attempting to post the other part of the missing message from earlier: YOU SAID: "Apollo 17- On The Shoulders Of Giants (1973 ) The camera that followed the LM ascending at 23:09 was set by the astronauts after they landed and when they left the surface of the moon, the descending stage was left on the moon. Consequently, if the camera was pointing at the landing spot we would see 21:36 or 23:42 . So far so good." == Yes, there's a lot of stuff seen in the Hasselblad photo. There's the same stuff seen in the low-res TV signal (you can't make it out at that low resolution, but, yeah, it's the same basic stuff, we agree). YOU SAID: "The trouble starts when we compare both background with 18:40. The mountains are EXACTLY the same in all the scenes. The absences of LM or descent stage at 18:40 are impossible unless it's been staged and you know it makes sense. Don't cha ?" == Good grief. You people are so stupid about basic photography, and geometry. You don't even know where the astronauts were standing when they took each photo. You can't just look at the background and assume the LM is in front of them. Sometimes, surprise surprise, they took photos when the LM was to their back. Shocker, I know, but it's true. And, you're committing the same exact error AGAIN, by not being aware of where the photo was taken. At 18:40 (in that other video), the LM is BEHIND THEM!!!! The camera is facing AWAY from the LM. Good gods. Once again, you are literally 180 degrees wrong. This is almost like you're doing it intentionally. It's like you don't understand basic photography (or geometry). Sheeeeeesssshhhh, you're dumb. You are standing in a fairly featureless environment, like, whatever, a desert. Five miles away in the distance, there's a mountain. 100 feet in front of you, there's a cactus. You take the photo of the cactus with the mountain in the background. Now, walk toward the cactus, and walk past it by 20 feet, still facing the same mountain. Take another photo. Now, it's just a photo of the exact same mountain, but, wow, there's no cactus in the photo!!! The cactus must have been magically planted there, eh??? Or, is it just because the cactus is now behind you?? Good grief. This is exactly the problem you're experiencing with your ridiculous story here. You fail to realize that the LM is BEHIND THE CAMERA at 18:40 (from that other video). And, in the liftoff portion of the video, the LM is in front of the camera. Yes, same background mountains. But, one is taken in front of the LM facing those mountains, and the other is taken behind the LM facing those mountains. One has the LM in frame, one doesn't. Same background. Just like the cactus. Take a photo with the cactus in front of you, and it's in frame. Now, walk toward the mountains, past the cactus, and take the photo again, and there won't be the cactus in frame, but will have the same background. All of this is quite easily shown by looking at the maps of where all of that stuff is located, you know. You simply don't know where any of these things are. That's why you got confused about where Camelot was (your original posting), which direction the camera was facing, etc. And, that's why you're confused about the rest of this stuff.
