What happened to going back to the moon?

The problem is that one of the NASA engineers said they got rid of the tech they used to go to the moon back then and cannot recover it. Anyone of you guys has in your back pocket or purse or fanny pack a device with computing power equivalent to some of the smaller computers used back then.

The big problem is the Van Allen Belts of radiation. The answer to that is that we raced through it to minimize exposure, riding in what David Bowie aptly described as a tin can in "Space Oddity."

A number of people have raised questions with the photography and how shadows fall.

I was 5 years old and my father, who had visitation rights with us, woke me up to see the moon landing. It looked real, to me, at the age of 5. And I never had reason to doubt it. Why would the government lie?

My step grandfather worked as an electronics technician for JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratories) in Cali. Growing up, there was never a doubt that we went. And yes, I know the rumors that filmmaker Stanley Kubrick was approached about some technical advice.

All of which, I think, does not disprove that we went. What would have helped was to review the telemetry. And those tapes were recorded over.

We very well could have went and evidently, there are markers we planted there to aid in gauging distance to the moon enough to know that it has moved closer to us by ever so small an amount.

And it could also be that the astronauts we know and love were actors. Often it is said, in defense of the official truth, how they hide a conspiracy so big.

Simple - they don't. The PTB tell what they want you to hear and keep repeating it.

It's the same question over and over again. So, there were lies about the USS Maine. Lies about what we know about Japan before entering WWII with them. Admiral Morrison (father of singer Jim Morrison) telling the JCoS that the Viet Cong were firing at us and dead US Navy sailors were floating in the Gulf of Tonkin, which we now know to have been a lie.

Then, there is 9/11, of course, where they demolished buildings in front of your eyes and told you it was "pancake collapse," violating Newton's Third Law of Motion and Conservation of Momentum.

That Trump colluded with Russia and was watching prostitutes pee on a bed in Moscow while he was a political function in the States at the very same moment.

But the government is telling the truth about the moon landings.
 
Pffft the moon, we need to be working on getting objects into LaGrange points.

Originally it took a couple of years with old white men and slide rules. The entire program had the computing power of the average $1 calculator from Dollar general.
Now with everything we have available we can not do it ? We can not cross the Van Allen belt ? really. How did we do it before ?
My Dad worked on the original program with Grumman. I am having my own doubts recently, things do not add up.

Funding

NASA was basiclly given a blank check. It was also heavily pushed by the Gov.

Today that is not the case with NASA

Also Japan last year hit the moon, Russia did as well in 2023.

Give it some time, It will go down.. or up. I actually went and watched one of the test launches get scrubbed. It fired the next time.

This shits way over my head but yeah I agree, great song.


My dad is a physicist, so I get dissertations on math and science stuff from time to time.

We need to occupy the La Grange points before the Chinese do, they are also working on getting to the back side of the moon... We need to keep an eye on what they are doing up there.

And ZZtop fucking rocks. I wanna go see them in Baton Rouge this November.

Well, it sounded interesting until I ran across the term "cislunar space."

That ended my desire to read any further.

I'm going with it was much easier to get to the moon and back rather than fake it over and over and keep thousands of people quiet and our biggest enemies quiet about it and not have anything leak out for 50 years.

Also that was back in the days folks didn't care about that radiation stuff all that much.
 
This about it this way as well.
We had a well documented reusable space bus thing going on for a few decades.
Sure there were two of these unscheduled rapid disassembly events along the way.

We got tired of it and didn't want to spend any more money and got rid of all the tooling to make more.

A decade later all we are currently doing is essentially a glorified commercialized repeat of the 60+ years ago, stick some guys in the top of a rocket and take them into orbit thing.

So who knows perhaps if this keeps going in another 50 years, tin foil types will be saying the Shuttle program was all just a lie.

You kind of have that a bit backwards.
The moon is steadily moving away from us.
Depending on who measures and how, folks generally come up with about 13 to 18 centimetres for being the number of how much further the moon is away from us now compared to when the Apollo program put the reflectors on the moon.

Can't get back by 2025. I guarantee we didn't go in 1969.
FINALLY! Someone agrees with me!

'Mericans are just too damn arrogant. IF we ACTUALLY went and returned......Why TF haven't we gone back in what, 50 years? 55 years? My mental math might be off, buy you get the point. IF we went and successfully returned....Every single U.S serpent in suit, i mean politician, would've wanted to go back to establish space dominance in some fashion. But, that's never happened has it? No, i didn't think so. We never went to the moon.

I should probably go put my tin foil hat back on. My receiver squelch levels need adjustment anyhow.😁
 
Ya’ll know we (usa)put a probe on da moon last year right?


Its not about being capable, its about the funds to get people there and back, alive.

Thanks for the correction.

If we didn't go to the moon, how does one explain the mirror on the moon?
Well, now, it's become common to launch probes to the moon. Of course, the last several tries have resulted in crashes with zero actual footage and only cartoon animation to show theoretically what is happening.

Even India sent one. The same India that needed our money for gender studies.
