  • In 68, people were smart enough to know this took place. People were serious about a reduced set of focused goals for the future. And among those goals were simple inventions we all use today. Today, society has gone down hill to include 95% uneducated idiots, some of which ramble about how this is impossible, while using inventions from a small number of billion dollar companies while listening to dumbed down music, 50% of which is rap containing little to no music. Our world is slipping..

  • I love thos ' beeps ' across the radio , just soo epic !

  • im part of what regular people would call the unwanted part of society but im not stupid enuff to claim this was a hoax only an idiot would beleive we didnt go to the moon....wake up and smell the cofee

  • I remember seeing the Apollo space helmet and thinking WTF IS THAT THING?? That's not a helmet, it's a fishbowl!

  • Those poor guys, they sure were in a bad mood. lol.

  • Today we can't even defend our border with Mexico let alone explore space.

    What a tragedy! Why do people talk about the moon landing "hoax" and not the Obama farce?

  • NASA command center: "Back to work you lazy bum." Schirra: "Screw you sideways."

  • proferic.btw get your facts right apollo 5 had the 1b engine and took the lm up for its test or thats what they say or you have caught them in another lie?

  • proferic, the lunar module was meant to go on apollo 4 but during pressure test it fell apart,windows blew out and the body ripped.if you watch moon machines see if you still think this coke can could go to the moon .

  • youvebeenthunderstru.you are an asshole of the 1st order and make it even clearer the type of pricks that belive in this lie are the same as religious nuts that want to blow you up if you say a word against it.now if you want to mouth of send me a message with your address or shut your filthy pie hole.

  • this is real

  • the reason the lm was'nt taken on this flight,the windows blew out during presure test and no time to fix but all they did was had the windows replaced and used the same lm to land on the moon?did'nt bother them as it was all done in the sim,even capcom could'nt tell the difference between the real thing and sim.the 1201 came up in a sim.funny that!

  • The lm was NEVER going to be taken on this flight. The Apollo was launced using a 1B, which was not heavy enough to carry the lm. Get your facts straight.

  • No, you're just a fucking idiot that likes to make up facts about the space program to discredit it, you fucking piece of shit.

  • Awesome. It reminds me of all the times I watched these kinds of footage as a boy.

  • Hey Novellus78

    The official US position on the Chinese space walk is that it was real.

    "Proof China Faked Their Spacewalk"

    /watch?gl=ES&hl=es&v=kG4Z_r38Z­DE

    "About paper and bubbles of ShenzhouVII"

    Do you think it was real?

  • Cosmored2...even though you give every indication of being real, I think you're a hoax.

  • Do a YouTube search on "Chomsky media" if you think the press would report what a whistle-blower says.

    This is good too.

    My other accound got blocked so this one will probably get blocked too. If someone wants to talk about the Apollo hoax on neutral ground, come to this thread.

    I hope so for good reasons. Because people like you spread lies, ignorance and pseudo-science to young people (which you might not even be aware of because of lack of knowledge). This is a threat to each modern well educated society.

    We need a kind of global censorship across the internet regarding anti-Semitism, public enemy, fundamentalists and those who spread conspiracies and try to make people ignorant.

    This is just empty rhetoric. How about addressing the evidence?

  • Discussing evidences is left to conspiracy fan boys and crackpots. That's a niveau I can not degrade to, since I'm involved in aviation and space flight industries for almost 19 years now.

    Many young people visit NASA centers but also ESA centers in Europe. They are open-minded, intelligent and rather interested in science, space flight and aviation engineering. Those people are our future. Conspirators are not. They don't contribute anything to the human progress. Those only waste time...

  • "Discussing evidences is left to conspiracy fan boys and crackpots....only waste time..."

    Do you realize that you'd get laughed out of the debating hall for this response. If you think the hoax evidence is wrong, say why.

  • Since I work in the aviation and space flight business I have to tell that a debating hall does not exist. I have never seen one within 19 years. The US manned space flight program is a scientific and historic fact. It is, within the scientific and engineering business and community, uncontroversial.

    The only hoax that endeed exists is the one that is spread across the web by either ignorant people or by fraudulent profit making journalists.

  • You don't need to show me videos and forums. I'm, again, involved in aviation and space flight industries and I know the facts, technology and science behind manned space flight better than any journalist and better than any people that can be found in certain blogs and forums.

  • The Apollo 1 crew died because of the fact that the ECS (environmental control system) of the Command Module was generating a 100% oxygen environment during the pre launch phase and because of the slow side hatch egress procedure at that time. It was an engineering issue.

    A 100% oxygen environment is nothing unsual by the way, especially not in space suits still today. It enables a lower pressure and lightens the used structure and materials.

  • NASA today just has completed its 126th Space Shuttle mission successfully. All in all, NASA has send about 1000 humans into space until today (7 to 8 already on each Space Shuttle mission). Together with Roscosmos, ESA and other space agencies, we have build the largest artifical object in low earth orbit, the ISS, which is the permanent home for three astronauts and soon for 6 astronauts.

    The current progress in space is way more challanging and complicated than Apollo was.

  • You're not saying anything that makes the hoax evidence go away. Explain the movement of the flag in this clip.

    /watch?v=n1UEv2PIzl4

    "Apollo 15 waving flag at 2:37"

    /watch?v=Zr76qSQ9ZQQ

    "MoonFaker: The Flags Are Alive. PART 1."

  • There is nothing to make go away what you and a few others believe is a hoax . There is no debate within the scientific and engineering community because manned space flight is a scientific and historic fact. The progress continues regardless how many ignorant people across the web and in front of FOX TV do exist. There'll always be less educated people.

    Again: you don't need to show me videos. I own more hours of Apollo video footage than any non- space flight people would ever get.

  • Faked??  You people make me laugh! We were in a space race with the Russians at the time, and if ANY part of going to the moon had been "faked", the Russians would have known and been all over that! Quit spreading ignorance.

  • To answer your question, which is soon exactly 40 years old and gets continuously replied to young people who come to visit our centers and work:

    The falg was fixed by small horizontal pole.

  • Otherwise it would hang, because there is still 1/6 gravity left on the lunar surface and of course no atmospheric effects. The falg had to be twirled into the surface to be able to stand and not to fall over. That movement caused the pole (flag) to wave. The movement slows down only slowly because of the missing atmosphere. It takes almost as twice as long as it would on Earth. You can notice similar effects of some equipment during EVA's outside the ISS and Space Shuttle.

  • PS: we even joke on those flag questions in the way like the guys just have used some wind effects to not let look the flag too static, but they just forgot that the truth of the hoax will out due to the waving flag.

  • Honestly:

    a cmall but certain part of our western societies is going to become more and more irrational due to the stupidity and misinformation taking place hugely across the internet and on US TV stations like FOX. Almost anything is considered to be a hoax these days. The same confused people who "believe" Apollo was a hoax also "believe" that 9/11 was a hoax and that Chemtrails are real as well. It's always the same naive type of irrational thought patterns and missinformation.

  • People are free to "believe" and to "claim" almost everything. Certain people claim they got kidnapped by aliens. Some others believe they were or even are Jesus. And some believe they are messed around by their government. But that's all nothing more than subjective claims and absolutely nothing of importance. It's somehow sad but also funny at the same time. I feel sorry for those people who seem to get stuck in the middle ages and don't arrive in the reality.

  • Hey Novellus78, why even bother, let these retards in their own middle age, and conspiracy theories...

    THEY don't matter at all.

  • agreed

  • @Novellus78

    with all respect: i think the apollo missions were real.but don't underestimate the people who are sceptic about it.Cause you have to admit that the information that we get aren't all the answers to our questions and that makes people think.so learn to convince people with real proof instead of talking like a big man who doesn't know anything about everything

  • @belgamie Respectfully, a couple of points in response:

    1. It's not about "proving" the moon landings happened. The hoax proponents are making one hell of an accusation here, so the burden of proof rests with them. They want to claim that people who served their country are liars? They should prove it!

    2. In my experience, the vast majority of these people (I didn't say all) do not respond to rational argument. They want to believe that it was a hoax and are blinded by their own prejudice.

  • @belgamie Not true. All the answeres to every Moon Hoax claim are readily available.

  • ...continued

    Look what this scientist says about science fraud at around the 30 minute mark.

    Also, it would be downright dangerous for someone to try to come forward.

  • "How come no space scientist anywhere in the world believes they were faked "

    That's what we read but it's not necessarilly true.

    Here's some evidence that there are scientists who are willing to sell out and lie and that the media will not report what a whistle-blower says.

  • cosmored, you are just another idiot troll. The moon landings were real, not faked. Now do everyone on the internet a favor and disappear forever.

  • The moon missions were obviously faked. Here's a partial summary of the moon hoax fakery.

    3W's (dot) rushlimbaughforum (dot) com/never-went-the-moon-t2782 (dot) html

    (check link for gaps)

    They probably never got higher than low earth orbit due to space radiation. In the second half of the link above there's some stuff about space radiation.

    I believed the moon missins were real until I saw the evidence. Thank God for the internet.

  • Bloody Idiot! And it's missions, not missins.

  • No "obvious" about it. The overwhelming evidence proves the landings were real. How come no space scientist anywhere in the world believes they were faked and yet a few poorly informed people using internet forums think they know better?

  • No expert or scientists right away considered 9/11 incident would have required explosives. The vast majority of the scientists STILL don't think explosives were used and believe the official fire broght the towers down story. However, even the NIST scientists cannot explain how it happened. No-one can explain why the buildings crashed down free fall speed, without resistance. AND THEY STILL BELIEVE the official story. It is quite the same thing with Apollo, except it's less popular.

  • You cannot compare 9/11 with Apollo...they are nothing alike. And you can't just dismiss the research and opinions of highly skilled and knowledgeable people just because they don't buy into conspiracy theories.

  • Sure I can. There is an official truth in both Apollo and 9/11 conspiracy. People consider it impossible a government would kill so many of its own people or that they would lie and plan a hoax like Apollo. Both ideas sound so crazy an expert or a scientist wastebaskets his/her reputation and career (and risks his/her health) publically doubting the official truth.

  • Well, we can agree on one thing...it sounds crazy.

  • Yep, that's exatly the problem. Yet crazy things happen! But people are either ignorant or do not much care, which leads these crazy things forgotten. For example Pentagon testing radiation with children, or poisoning soldiers in Vietnam, or letting Israel to attack USS Liberty to get Egypt the blame, or US gov fabricating evidence to start Iraq war, or preparing for invading Afghanistan right before 9/11. These conspiracies also sound crazy, but they all happened.

  • Oh go away!  You're getting madder by the minute.

  • This was the first time the Saturn 1b was manned, this was the first flight of the command/service module and the first flight of a three man crew. It was absolutely no surprise that Schirra was upset that the mission called for additional experiments.
