Re: Did man land on the moon?
Exactly and I really hope it is true. I did read an article by Japanese scientist who said that the Japanese were going to travel to the moon however discovered that it would be impossible for man to survive the heat or radiation or something which is why they haven't done it. They land on planets much further away all the time surely going to the moon and back nowadays would be a piece of piss. I'm suprised McDonalds haven't done it just to put a huge advertising banner up there you could see from earth, imagine that !!!Heston wrote:What we achieved 43 years ago in science should be a doddle today. That's why I remain perplexed.Purple Hayes wrote:Easy you'd have thought, so why not then ? As someone woken up as a small child to watch the moon landing it would really put my mind to rest, still can't get my head around how they did it way back then or on the other hand how so many people could lie about it....... I don't pretend to understand the science involved but surely in the 21st century we could nail it as an absolute known truth or just another piece of propaganda bullshit?101Walterton wrote:Can't they resolve this once and for all by finding that flag and all the crap they left behind (including the footprints and tyre tracks etc..which will apparently still be there) with one of those fancy telescopes ?

That's true, the astronaut may have been American but NASA technology wasn't, the Nazi's were half way there in 1945.Marky Dread wrote:In truth the Americans would not have been able to land on the moon without the aid of Nazi scientists captured in WWII.Heston wrote:It would be different if Russia had got there first.Wolter wrote:As far as I'm concerned it is an absolute known truth.

Re: Did man land on the moon?
Launching missiles from Germany to London was not "half way" by any stretch. Yes, the Germans were pioneers in rocketry, but let's not exaggerate the state of the technology in 1945.101Walterton wrote:That's true, the astronaut may have been American but NASA technology wasn't, the Nazi's were half way there in 1945.

OK, 17.8 % of the way thereDr. Medulla wrote:Launching missiles from Germany to London was not "half way" by any stretch.

Re: Did man land on the moon?
According to cursory Internet search, no. Those fancy telescopes are not capable of dOing that.101Walterton wrote:Can't they resolve this once and for all by finding that flag and all the crap they left behind (including the footprints and tyre tracks etc..which will apparently still be there) with one of those fancy telescopes ?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
