Youtuber, "greenmagoos" thinks he sees 2 light sources in Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell's visor. This video busts that nonsense wide open. His videos, "Moon Hoax- Apollo 14's Moonset Light Rig - aka- Two Suns In Visor!" and "Moon Hoax- The Lies In Your Visors Part Two (Trailer)" suffer from visor fixation.

I demonstrate that double reflections are to be expected in the multi-layered Lunar Excursion Visor Assembly. I also demonstrate that greenmagoos two-light-source explanation should generate two shadows that we don't see in any Apollo photos.

In short, greenmagoos' bizarre visor fetish is misguided, pseudo-scientific claptrap that only reminds us of the evidential and scientific void plaguing the anti-Apollo cult.

  • I completly agree with the double reflections cause by the double visor. Its logic. But to change subject, do you think its possible to face the sun without using the second visor? I saw some videos of Apollo and sometime we see their faces (astronaut) and the sun is relatively in front of them... Its a friendly question ; )

  • @WikiLeaksTUBE, True. On rare occasions, some Apollo astronauts briefly raised their solar visor. Usually they did so to see a detail in the LM shadow or for the same reason you might raise your own sunglasses. That's exactly the reason that portion of the visor could be manipulated. I don't recall the exact story, but I think at least 1 a-naut was asked to please lower it. A brief exposure wasn't gonna kill anyone, but what are you gonna to to make a guy behave when he's 240,000 miles away?

  • this idiot has some brains but he should start to explain why shadow changes the lenght when ufonauts are moving

  • @discouniverse Uhhh... did you just come onto my channel and insult me with namecalling? Is that a very good idea? Do you think I have to let you do that?

    If you'd like to apologize and start a reasonable discussion, that's fine. Otherwise, prepared to be blocked and removed.

  • @LunarTuner Hey. Got a little info for ya. It was Harrison Schmitt on Apollo 17. He walked around on the moon for quite sometime with his sun visor up and was told to put it down, to which he replied, "It's too scratched, I can't see with it down." or something like that.

    So yeah. Jack Schmitt was the guy with his visor up.

  • cannot be any disscussion in obvious things...exists more than 10 evidences to prove that we never went to the moon

  • there are 10 reflections or so...

  • different on each and every space mission? i couldn't differ more when i say that the pics from nasa's low earth orbits all show up the same sun with the same spokes. are these different? no!

    then why are only the apollo visor sun reflections sans the spokes. due to the visor design? that doesn't seem less than an anomaly. show me any differing pics from nasa's low earth orbit missions and i'll rethink my view.

  • One important reason for some of the differences is that the construction of the visors are different between the Apollo and Shuttle helmets.

    Different visors, different cameras and different lenses would all play a factor.

    With all that why would it be identical?
