Lunar landing simulated in new NASA animation

[winterstellar]

Hehe, how dumb and ignorant do you have to be to believe that the moon landings were huge hoaxes? I think you almost have to have room-temperature IQ or something.. : )

[dimitri10011]

measured in C, right? :P

[winterstellar]

Yeah, not in fahrenheit or anything, hehe!: )

[AgainstTheeWickedly]

Holy shoite. That is one freakishly huge crater.

[r0ck3tsm0k3]

Yeah pretty scary : )

I dont think they will go inside, will they? Seems too dangerous to even consider. Maybe they can drop in a rover or roll a ball probe down the side.

[loperspest]

Actually, in some ways, it' BETTER to send a man into the dangerous areas, because a man can react better to unknown situations then a robot can.

[markakroll]

Ah HA! Notice there were no simulated stars in the background! Ah Hmm m m m !

[ImaginationAnimation]

Hey Dim Wit guss what !

On the moon you can't see stars and MAN did land on the moon.

Now I bet you'll complain "But on Apollo 11 why was the flag rippling?" Well the fact is the the horizontil poll didn't enstend well and the frabric got scrunched up.

I am an AUSSIE and you are an AMERICAN and you don't even belive that your own men landed on the moon!

One more thing I am only 12 years old and I know all this.

[guitardude012]

@ImaginationAnimation It has been a year but actually you can see the stars very well from the moon. The reason you don't see them in footage is because of the cameras used. The moon is a good place to put a telescope because of the lack of distortion caused by the atmosphere.

[Jmcenanly]

Not enough ram to animate all of them. This is a simulation, you know.:)

[oldjet]

it's about time that humanity landed on the moon (the 1969 Nevada desert landing doesn't count).

[gasgasLex]

Oldjet, Do you think Nasa could fool the entire world or even the bad Russkies who were watching for any slip up by the terrible capitalist West??

[PerfectBlindness]

how majestic

[jacketdramatics]

The cams on an extendable arm that deployed before he left the craft.

I am neither a beleiver or a non beleiver. But I do feel that most of the evedence given by non believers is pathetic

some is intreging though

[harrisonhiroyuki]

The point is that it never happened, it was a total failure by nasa. They had to then explain to the world, instead they faked the landings to ensure people would believe it happened. For instance Land Armstrong is climbing down the ladder and saying his famous line "One small step.." but the thing is that its being filmed outside the space craft!! so how can he be the first a camera is already filming him? theres more on youtube about it, just run a search for fake moon landings or something

[Xisla]

"Land Armstrong"?

Is he that world class cyclist or the famous jazz musician?

Get your facts right and stop embarrassing yourself further.

[harrisonhiroyuki]

i wrote my comment at 1.30 am in the morning so my typing skills arent always the best around that time. And to your reply..... "YAWN"

[Doothe]

The camera was on a boom outside the craft.

Seriously, if NASA managed to reduce gravity inside a studio, then I don't think they would overlook something that obvious.

Note: It is impossible to reduce, or increase, or do anything with, gravity. If they just slowed down the camera then the dust particles would show drastically different trajectories. Its take-off and landing times may be the same, but a parabola on Earth would be much smaller.

[gasgasLex]

harrisonhiroyuki: You sir are a Richard Cranium!!

[emilypalmer2]

the idea was, according to ex military who came out, was that the moon landing was faked because the origonal moon landing team encounted an alien base. thers not much about it on yu tube, and i spend most of my time telling others that tey need help. but look it up, youll find it.

[IPAPLE]

when did we land on the moon what year are we living in where am i

[sugarandpie]

lmao..."apparently" we landed on the moon fuck knows when...its 2085 and there are monkeys making me dinner as i type this...oh and another just popped down tescos for my shopping...and fuck knows where you are...kssshhh...over...

[Cadmus5115]

I agree. What would be the point of faking a moon landing anyway? People are so skeptical about everything...

[Twodaystogo]

well to prove they were better the russia that there rockets were better

[justlikeyou77]

alright...we did land on the moon...all others that think we didnt...go fuck yourself and stop trying to get attention!

[peterbluestar]

Stup fucking around witch pepole there head s

[Xbox360shenmue]

Seriously? I mean come on NASA what the fuck?

[ZarekFinland]

right next to the mooncrater.. almost landed in the dark abyss :>

[dosguy]

Animation? WTF??? We did the real thing 40 years ago, didn't we? Well, DIDN'T WE??? Hmmmmmm.........

[chrthiel]

The Russians would have made a lot of noise if it had been a hoax. They had the equipment to check.

[codename36]

Looks like NASA is launching more money into space again, lol!

[codename36]

Those are some shitty graphics, lol!

[borneobear]

Its not the technology. Its the money. Too bad there's no oil on the moon.

[DamienZshadow]

no, but something better. as I mentioned in another comment, a special form of Hydrogen, Deuterium, is abundant on the Moon. This is ideal for cold fusion.

[starbase18]

i dont think its cold fusion. its within a tokamak

[chrthiel]

Nope, it's the helium isotope Helium-3 and it's ideal for HOT fusion. The concept of cold fusion has never been proven.

[19KiSSeS93]

wait.. how did i get from listening to seether... to watching NASA thingy

[19KiSSeS93]

wow so interesting

[nerdelicious5]

Whoa, that is a HUGE crater!

[ConanTheBacterium]

Is there a simulation of the US administration scraping the money together to pay for this little jaunt?

[DamienZshadow]

Yea, it's called diverting funding from pointless wars to new forms of energy.

There's a form of Deuterium in Lunar rock that's ideal for maintaining cold fusion without nearly as much destructive excess neutrino radiation to destroy the reactors.

[soylentgreenb]

"There's a form of Deuterium in Lunar rock..."

helium-3; there's only one deuterium and it is abundant on Earth.

"...that's ideal for maintaining cold fusion..."

There's no such thing as cold fusion. Standard DT fusion is easier and the fuel is abundant.

"...without nearly as much destructive excess neutrino radiation to destroy the reactors."

You mean neutrons, not neutrinos. Shielding neutrons is not a significant problem; they're infact required to breed the tritium for DT fusion.

[DamienZshadow]

lol thanks, I guess I don't know as much about subatomic particles as I thought I did. I'll stick with my Biology XP

but yea, it was Helium-3 that I was thinking about, I forgot exactly where I read it and apparently what they said verbatim. My apologies and thank you for correcting me.

[starbase18]

spot on m8, with helium-3, the space race begins again. its the super fuel for nuclear fusion.

[Zdaytona05]

your both assuming that we will ever be able to create a fusion reaction that produces more energy than it takes to maintain..sadly im kinda supprised its taken us this long to figure it out..and even more sadly people are either to stupid to understand why its important, or just dont care

[Zdaytona05]

[chrthiel]

Actually, they expect ITER to be capable of supplying more power than it uses, though only for a very short instant. If it proves successful full-scale fusion shouldn't be that far off. As in within 30 years.

[Jmcenanly]

I'm looking forward to see how the reality matches up with the simulations.

[superfisto]

Do people have to go?

[alastairthegreat]

yes :)

[TECHKLEC]

Absolutly, or, to be more correct, people (we) have to go back. It's been almost 40 years since Apollo 11 and I find it hard to swallow all this difficulty to do it again in spite of all the technological gains wev'e made.
