Mythbusters Moon Hoax Footprint

Some suggest that it's impossible to make a footprint on the moon, because there's no moisture on the moon to hold the shape in place once the boot is gone. How they know so much about a moon they think we've never been to is puzzling. Mythbusters shows what people who went to the moon discovered: the moon's regolith can't be compared to beach sand. It's unique properties can easily hold a footprint in place in a vacuum and without moisture.

2:49, is that it?

Now compare to this.

@Fridaey13txhOktober, I'm not sure I understand your point. What are you trying to say about the comparison?

[Fridaey13txhOktober]

The bootprint might have only slightly collapsed, unlike what would have happened with beach sand, but the bootprint is still far from looking alike the moon ones.

Mythbuster team slacked.

@Fridaey13txhOktober, keep in mind, this is an experiment on earth where the gravity pulling on the sides of an imprint is 6 times greater. I can forgive Mythbusters for not duplicating that factor. They also should have pointed out that there is no such thing as lunar regolith that is uniformly fine our course on the moon. Nonetheless, they demonstrated that a print is possible. That was the goal.

@AnonymousElektron, no, we are NOT going to talk about another conspiracy theory on this site. We are NOT going to talk about a 380,000 lbs. "bomb" flying 200+ mph bringing down a building. No, we're not having that discussion. You can do it elsewhere. My videos are about Apollo (and here, I am god). ;)

@AnonymousElektron, maybe you didn't pay attention. What part of "no, we are NOT going to talk about another conspiracy theory on this site" did you not understand?

I'm not afraid of talking about anything, but this is MY page and it's not about 911, Loch Ness, Bigfoot, Aliens, Kennedy, Lincoln, Iraq, Watergate, The Elders of Zion, Roswell, Princess DIana or Teletubies! Why not? I believe in ORDER.

Take your 911 discussion to another page or prepare to be blocked.

Have a nice day!

Yes, the bootprint should have been deeper. It isn´t the first time they are so careless.

It isn´t that it was possible but that this "prooves" that "the myth" is "busted", which it isn´t.

I can lift 30 kilos but that doesn´t mean I can lift 150 kilos.

I posted a plan on here regarding @fuckutube74 aka @2nasafakedit aka @humanmonkeyrace aka @nasafakedit

He's clouded up the airways with his shouting long enough and we need to get rid of him to clear up room for an intelligent debate on this.

I can see he's blocked from this page but their are some he is not, please help out those discussing it their, or encourage them to bring their discussion here.

@AnonymousElektron Hammer/feather: The vacuum on the moon means no air resistance to hold up the feather.

Stars in the sky: The camera's brightness must be reduced so the moon does not appear white due to its high albedo, but it must be reduced so much that the stars do not appear.
