"reflection drowns out the light of the stars"

Why would you post a comment that clearly contradicts what you can see on the video? The sun IS shining on the planet. Look around 0:40. Is it possible that you would post a stupid comment like that because you want a lie to be the truth? If you come from a country built on lies, Kennedy assasination, Vietnam war, Iraq weapons of mass destruction, 911, etc... When you take away the lies, what is left? A bad smell, that's all.

Look at the stars... Wonder why they were not included when men allegedly "went to the moon"... too hard maybe?

Look at a "Book". The nearest star to us is 4 light years away. That is TRILLIONS of miles. The moon is only 280,000 miles. We cannot get to a star even if we wanted to. It is way too far away. But the moon is very close.

reflection from the surface of any planet or moon drowns out the light of the stars when the sun is shining on it. just get the hell out of here, you are freaking clueless.
