Moon landing tapes got erased, NASA admits.

[greenfruitface]

I saw the moon landing on TV, so I know it was real. But there was a show called Godzilla on right after that, but I know for a fact it was fake.

[liellibg]

Why are there plans to build a rocket maybe three times as powerful than the saturn rockets. Because they need to be able to life a ship with a water shield. As a kid I watched many of the moon landings. But we now know it was not livetime unedited. All moon landing tapes gets lost. Thats like saying we lost the original declaration of independ. The last shuttle mission had a robot. Now no fly zones over supposed man landing sites. The writting is all over the walls. Old heros are had to let die

[BjornPalmen]

@Imdumbnorsky Of all the things you could say about Neil Armstrong, his being nervous is the least likely.

With 30 seconds of fuel remaining he managed to find a landing place on Mare Tranquilitatis free from craters and boulders. I think he is the world's best test pilot ever.

[mashmellow00]

I`m sorry..but I couldn`t quite understand what they said...And I`m speak english really well :/

[Losieusatra]

i understand english very well.. but the hell.. i'll never understand what they are sayin through this freakin radio ><

[youngwyte5]

think about it her on earth we clearly see the stars at night bright stars far away but they ass on the damn moon u dont see not one stay man never been to the moon its bs think about it

[N0rthwestRadio]

@youngwyte5 Your not a photographer obviously. You go on outside with your camera on a lit city street, or a patio with a light and take some pictures and see if the stars show up. K? And keep in mind that what you are holding in your hand is a thousand times more advanced than the cameras used then. The go outside in the pitch dark, no lights, and try to get them to show up. Learn a little. The sun is very bright. Its daytime on the moon in these pcitures. Can you see the stars in the daytime?

[theshadowify]

@N0rthwestRadio I see you had your little encounter with these idiots about 4 months ago. I just got through with a little exchange with Playitalready. They are so stupid. I took the time to email him and explain step by step why their were no stars in the pictures. I went through the aperature settings and everything. I even sent him a picture that a Russian Lander took pictures on the Moon, with NO STARS. But he came back with a lame oh that is an unreliable source. He was a waste of time.

[theshadowify]

@youngwyte5 Just try to go outside and take a picture of the moon at night. If you look at the moon, you will see stars around it. But if you take a picture of the moon, without overexposer of the moon, you wont see any stars in that picture. That is the reason there are no stars with the astronaut pictures.Same deal.

[Playitalready]

@theshadowify just wondering what the lunars say about why didnt they bring the correct cameras with the correct settings to get a good view of the stars like the unmanned missions did. thanks-

[theshadowify]

@Playitalready I am not aware of ANY unmanned missions that took pictures of the moons surface with stars in the background.

[BjornPalmen]

@Playitalready Yousaid:

"why didnt they bring the correct cameras ... to get a good view of the stars ... like the unmanned missions did"

No unmanned mission to the Moon ever took pictures of the stars. Such pictures would give no new information. It does not matter if it is a good view or not.

[Playitalready]

@theshadowify did my reply today go through i dont see it

[Playitalready]

@theshadowify i dont see my comment reply for whatever dam reason so to reply again; you didnt answer what my actual question was. i asked what the lunars say about why didnt they bring the correct cameras with the correct settings to get a good view of the stars (sounds like they have no answer) like the unmanned missions did (i didn't say like the unmanned missions that took pics of the moons surface ONLY, although why didnt they ever do that, manned OR unmanned). thanks-

[BjornPalmen]

@Playitalready

You said: "why didnt they bring the correct cameras with the correct settings to get a good view of the stars"

The Apollo missions were about going to the Moon, not the stars. Stars can equally well be seen from Earth in night time, during Apollo missions it was daytime on the Moon all the time, = full moon on Earth.

So why would you like pictures of stars taken on the Moon?? You would not see the difference anyway.

[BjornPalmen]

@Playitalready You said "i dont see my comment reply for whatever dam reason"

The reason is that you are looking in the wrong place. All new comments are first displayed at the top, right after the video. You can also look at all comments and use ctrl-f to search for Playitalready.

[Playitalready]

@theshadowify thanks for proving that you are IGNORANT and arrogant and that you can't PROVE YOUR CLAIMS. i, on the other hand, CRUSHED all your B.S. and now that it's my turn you won't hear out my evidence in the NASA playlist i made. regards to you and your uncle; 2 arrogant ignorant con artists. bye

[theshadowify]

@Playitalready LMAO ..You little troll. I explained to you over and over again that the no stars in the background was a non issue. I even gave you proof that their were no stars in the photo from a Russian Lander. The stars were a dead issue, but you went back to it over and over. This proved to me that you were too hard headed to get any logical explanation. You just had lame excuses. You crushed nothing. Now you need to go on and get a life.

[sbranson01]

China and Russia could fake it just the same

[hempyuk]

the only way we are ever going to know if they went there or not is for another country to go there like china or Russia and place there flag next to Americas..

I personally would like to think they did go and land on the moon but I can see this could have been good American propaganda during the cold war.

[BjornPalmen]

@hempyuk

You said:"The only way we are ever going to know if they went there or not is for another country to go there like China or Russia and place there flag next to America's.."

There is a difficulty with that. How could you ever know that China or Russia really went there and that they did not fake it?

:DD

[truvelocity]

@BjornPalmen I'm old enough to have watched the moon landing live. I have to say that no matter how much proof, it will never satisfy a die-hard conspiracy theorist.

[BjornPalmen]

@truvelocity Actually I am not the one that shall present proof that the Moon exists.

Any conspiracy theorist should present proof that ANYTHING was faked. He cannot do that.

I have no wish whatsoever to "satisfy" people who are just plain wrong.

They owe the astronauts an apology.

[jonny6296]

how could the signal travel that far from the moon to earth? no way

[libtechsk8er]

Jonny6296, did you know we have satellites sending images and other data much further away than Saturn? How can you deny the moon landing with the overwhelming evidence in support of it? You can't!

[N0rthwestRadio]

@libtechsk8er Grin, don't waste your time on people like this, their chances at a productive life is near zero due to the dishonor the spew. It doesn't occur to them there are results for what the say and do. And spreading lies is about the same thing as being a thief, cept worse. They injure young minds with this crap. Something for which they will pay. Enjoy in that thought.!

[JacoDeLucia]

jonny6296, think about it. Radio waves and microwaves are both part of the electromagnetic spectrum, just as visible light is from the Sun. That sunlight travels 93 million miles to reach Earth. 250,000 miles from the Moon to Earth is hardly that far in comparison. On one of the Apollo missions, they aligned a mirror on the surface. From Lick Observatory in San Jose, they shine a laser beam onto it, measure the time of flight, and calculate the distance to the Moon to the nearest centimeter!

[JacoDeLucia]

The light beam moves at about 300,000,000 meters per second--knowing the round trip time for the laser beam sent to the Moon and back yields the distance to the Moon accurately and quite easily. You can't just remotely plop a mirror onto the Moon--it had to be placed there, unpacked and aligned by hand. Humans were there on the surface of the Moon to do that. Believe what you want, but humans did land on the Moon in 1969, despite all the rumors of hoaxes.

[smithdsmit]

@JacoDeLucia I agree but you have to admit.It is pretty odd that the oringinal tapes of the most important scientific achievement ever.Was accidentally erased.I just find it hard to believe that they would accidentaly record over that.I have vhs tapes i was more careful with

[jonny6296]

thanks for the response, i just keep an open mind about it. I wasnt even born in 1969 and its taken them 40 years to "restore" the orignal footage, theres just something really weird about the whole thing, i cant even recall any1 going back to the moon ever since? i was born in 1985

[theshadowify]

The original was not restored. The original was accidently taped over. The copy was restored. It took us 40 years to have the technology to restore these tapes. Plus they did it for the 40th aniversery. We had six landings on the moon. We had 3 more scheduled that got canceled, but people got bored with it. Benn there done that attitude of America that said we were wasting our money going to the moon. The last one was in 1972.

[NewDirection4us]

@theshadowify They didn't want new technology examining the fake tape so they "accidently" erased it. LOL People don't erase historic video if that's what it was. covering up something. LAst 3 trips cancelled because Tricky Dick got in trouble and had to resign or face impeachment. and Gerald Ford wouldn't go along with such shenanigans. But as bad as tricky Dick was, the fake moon missions would be child's play compared to having a president knocked off in order to gain power.

[theshadowify]

@NewDirection4us I see the trolls are out. It is damn fools like you that keep this up. Let me explain to you that when they taped this, taping was a new technology. Today it is common knowledge to label tapes so they don't get erased, but not then. It wasnt labeled, so out of thousand of people who worked there, someone accidently erased it.

[NewDirection4us]

@theshadowify They didn't have video tape back in 1969. the VCR wasn't even invented until the mid 1970s with betamax. It was all film back in '69. Film is unforgiving. Today, we screw up a photo, we can usually correct it with digital software. Back then, what you shot was what you got. And you believers expect us skeptics to believe that Neil and Buzz shot all of those Apollo 11 still photos in such clarity and focus, especially given the temperatures & their awkward spacesuits? LOL

[theshadowify]

@NewDirection4us Charles Ginsburg led the research team at Ampex Corporation in developing the first practical videotape recorder (VTR). In 1951. They beamed the video live from the moon and was video taped here on Earth. If astronauts of today can repair the Hubble Telescope given the temperatures & their awkward spacesuits with all those tiny bolts, then operating a camera would be no ptoblem. pwnd.

[NewDirection4us]

@theshadowify I'm sorry to hear that you believe they were able to transmit a video signal 1/4 million miles in 1969, from the moon's surface of all places, when it took a huge transmitting tower on Earth just to broadcast a video signal 50 miles maximum, to our home televisions that year. There are so many impossibilities that the evidence just doesn't indicate that they really went to the moon. They never landed a man on the moon. It's a fact.

[theshadowify]

@NewDirection4us Give it up man.On Earth there are all kinds of obstructions for a video signal. We have weather, hills, trees, buildings, and the curvature of the Earth itself. The video signal does not curve with the Earth. From the Moon there are no obstructions. It is a direct link. Nasa has massive anttenna on Earth to capture the signal as does Austrailia. They were also collecting images for us. Millions watched it live.So go ahead, make yourself look even more foolish.

[NewDirection4us]

@theshadowify Nice try but fail. A transmitter on the moon to send a video signal to earth would have had to be as big as the lunar lander. No live video streams were sent from the moon to Earth in 1969. It didn't happen.

[theshadowify]

@NewDirection4us Have you ever heard of parabolic antenna had a parabolic antenna on the moon to magnify the signal strength to send to Earth, and they had a giant parabolic antenna on the Earth to catch the weakest of signals.Live video streams from the moon did happen. Man did land on the moon, not once but several times. Quite frankly, I don't think you believe your rhetoric, that you really just want to stir up trouble.

[Playitalready]

@NewDirection4us theshadow guy is an arrogant ignorant person he tried at first but when i confronted what he said he gave up and turned to personal attacks, ignoring, distorted what i said, and finally blocking me without warning. i heard him out and never got a chance for him to hear me out. at least you/me can know the truth which should come out 1 day and for now we are not alone! enjoy my NASA playlist if you want.

[BjornPalmen]

@NewDirection4us "They never landed a man on the moon. It's a fact."

NOTHING you say is a fact.

[BjornPalmen]

@NewDirection4us They didn't have video tape back in 1969? The first magnetically-recorded time-delayed network television program using the new Ampex Quadruplex system was CBS's Douglas Edwards and the News on November 30, 1956. So you are wrong about this.

And you are wrong laughing at the Apollo photos.

Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin really shot all of those Apollo 11 still photos in such clarity and focus.

Your LOL exposes you as a fool, with clarity and focus.

[Playitalready]

@NewDirection4us his name isn't trick daddy..it's nix-er the crook right?

i was thinking everything u were pretty much.

[BjornPalmen]

@NewDirection4us You claim that they "didn't want new technology examining the fake tape"

Everything you say is incorrect. Let's hope this is NOT a new direction.

[BjornPalmen]

@NewDirection4us Fact is, it was never discovered what happened to the original Australian recording of telemetry from the moon and Apollo 11. There were of course copies.

[TheJomogogo]

It's called radio, believe it or not they had them back in the 60's.

[smithdsmit]

I always thought anyone who didn't believewe went to the moon was crazy. Im not saying we didnt go but it is pretty strange that these tapes would not be securly locked up or even in a museum.Come on, how do you accidently erase the footage of the greatest achievment mankind has ever done.I have never even accidently taped over a movie. I had it labled and they would have to. Now this makes me wonder

[nomorefreedom]

another american SCAM!!.

[keslerkaiyu]

it was not accidentally erased. come on People get with the program. They saw wires dangling the astronauts so they hid the tape. With today's advancement in Hollywood magic, they "RESTORED" it and dubbed out the wires. The only people that believe we landed a man on the moon also believe that an all mighty person whom no one ever seen created the heaven and the earth. Then send his son to die for our sins. Oh, wait that would be science. Can't mix those two can we? oh well...

[cartoonglutton]

One small step for a man, one giant tax bill for taxpayers, and four and a half miles to the nearest store for a pack of cigarettes and a six pack of beer!

[cartoonglutton]

Erased tapes? What's the big deal..? All they would have to do is go back to Area 51, and film it again - just like the first time.

[nalgaface123456789]

wait a minute

how can there be a camera recording already on the surface when they barely about to step on the moon?

[cdcec]

it's a camera with a tv transmitter installed in the eagle itself. that's how the event got to be broadcasted live.

[coolchanga]

robot

[zalkiarn]

don't get me wrong but alot of ppl said when Neil Armstrong went to the moon he could here a prayer,later in egypt he heard tht same prayer call and asked his friend what it was his friend said tht it was a call for prayer to the muslims!apart from evrything else this could be one of the things they might be hiding for some reason

[BossMrX]

dat s wrong ..zalkiarn...

Neil Armstrong did not hear anything like a prayer. Even i had heard dat news. My professor wrote a letter to Neil Armstrong asking about dis n his secretary replied dats a false news...

[BjornPalmen]

@zalkiarn You say: "when Neil Armstrong went to the moon he could hear a prayer"

That is not likely because there is no air on the Moon so there can be no sound waves.

[remotehog1]

i refuse to believe rocket sceintists are stupid enough to accidently do this, mabe they are hiding something, like someone stole the tapes, or that theres evedience of alien life on the tapes.

[PortlandViper]

@remotehog1 Or that the original moon landing took place on a movie set, and was so fake even people like me who aren't conspiracy theorists don't believe the original landing was real.

[BjornPalmen]

@PortlandViper You say: "moon landing took place on a movie set"

That would be some movie set, kilometers wide...

[44sd44]

why werent these tapes labeled "not to be reused"? EVER! no one had this foresight?

unfricking beleivable,only the most important human footage created was "accidentally" erased.what event was more important they needed to tape over the moon landing? who made the decision? when? 3/4" tape was available by the 70s.200,000 tapes and they misread just the ones that were most important? should be a few inquiries.but let nasa mention a company that redid bambi to "fix" the footage they have.

[BjornPalmen]

@44sd44 Well the funding of NASA was low and everybody had to save. The telemetry recordings could no longer be seen as pictures because the hardware for that was out of use. So somebody decided that the tapes were expendable. There were copies of them anyway.

[BjornPalmen]

@44sd44 "what event was more important they needed to tape over the moon landing?"

Maybe the next moon landing? or the next? or the next? or the next? or the next? or Apollo 17?

[mycatwilatackyou]

Trikkerman your an idiot !!! My dad spent years as an engineer him and people like him made this possible . Anyone who thinks we did not go to the moon is just playing stupid and your insulting many smart and talented men who worked all their lives to make this happen .

[fedebart]

where are those smart and talented men to refuse it

[4thkind]

why is everyone who dont believe the moonlanding at this time is an Idiot?

500 years ago said the smartest heads on earth the World is the center of the universe.

haveing own opinions is not stupidity or disrespectful.

but to call this People Idiots is Ignorant and arrogant

[cdcec]

the problem is that those 'own opinions' are not fundamented. until galileo got to defend heliocentrism he actually developed scientific methods of observation and analysis. i would like to see any of the conspiracists give factual and logical proof of the moonlanding hoax, apart from biased documentaries and factious articles.

[BjornPalmen]

@4thkind You ask "why everyone who dont believe the moonlanding at this time is an Idiot?"

Idiot really means a person who does not know anything.

It is very easy nowadays to know things and check ones opinions with facts. You can use Google or ask Wikipedia. It is very easy. If you don't do it, well, you ARE an idiot.

[BjornPalmen]

@4thkind

'idiot' finds its origins in the ancient Greek word ἰδιώτης (idiōtēs), meaning a private person, a person who is not actively interested in politics; such characters were talked about with contempt and the word eventually acquired its modern meaning. (Wikipedia)

The word still fits people who have no interest in space travel.

[Trikkerman3]

man has never been to the Moon and never will.

Fact.
