Moon Landing Conspiracy

[DaddyLongLeg]

William Cooper’s article is poorly put and wrong.

The tremendous radiation encountered in the Van Allen Belt, solar radiation, cosmic radiation, temperature control, and many other problems connected with space travel…

In this statement the author uses the same problem four times but calls it something different each time. His central claim is that radiation from the Sun creates an escalating heat problem due to the insulating properties of a vacuum. The science sounds reasonable, but what the author has failed to understand, (or reveal) is that the heat is lost due to radiation. This is precisely how the heat producing energy arrived at the rocket in the first place.

Radiation of all types will travel through a vacuum but will not affect the vacuum. Radiant heat from the sun travels through the vacuum of space but does not "warm" space.

Here the author actually tells us the answer to the problem he has constructed. Heat is transferred by two methods, conduction and radiation: any intelligent person can read this in a secondary school science textbook.

I would still like to see the Japanese bouncing

on the moon today.

peace,

In Quran, Moon Landing is confirmed!

[54:1] The Hour has come closer, and the moon has split.*

*54:1 This important sign of the approaching end of the world came to pass in 1969 when humans landed on the moon and brought pieces of the moon to earth. At the same time, God's mathematical Miracle of the Quran was being gradually unveiled. Traditional Muslims opposed it, since it exposed the fallacy of their practices (Appendix 25).

Interestingly some submitters later after the late messenger, Rashad Khalifa delivered this prophecy, found that the Lunar Module has departed the Moon exactly at the minute and second coded in the above verse's numbers [54:1].

Nasa (Apollo 11, Mission Summary)

The LM lifted off from the Moon at 17:54:01 UT on 21 July after 21 hours, 36 minutes on the lunar surface.

Ahmad I love your posts.

I don't think this proves it though.

Look below and see that many different times

could have been selected to falsely prove that

the hand of G-d was on the Quran.

Mission Profile

After launch on Saturn V SA-504 on 16 July 1969 at 13:32 UT (9:32 a.m. EDT) from pad 39A of Kennedy Space Center, Apollo 11 entered Earth orbit. After 1 1/2 Earth orbits, the S-IVB stage was re-ignited at 16:16:16 UT for a translunar injection burn of 5 minutes, 48 seconds putting the spacecraft on course for the Moon. The CSM separated from the S-IVB stage containing the LM 33 minutes later, turned around and docked with the LM at 16:56:03 UT. About an hour and 15 minutes later the S-IVB stage was injected into heliocentric orbit. During translunar coast a color TV transmission was made from Apollo 11 and on 17 July a 3-second mid-course correction burn of the main engine was performed. Lunar orbit insertion was achieved on 19 July at 17:21:50 UT by a retrograde firing of the main engine for 357.5 seconds while the spacecraft was behind the Moon and out of contact with Earth. A later 17 second burn circularized the orbit. On 20 July Armstrong and Aldrin entered the LM for final checkout. At 18:11:53 the LM and CSM separated. After a visual inspection by Collins, the LM descent engine fired for 30 seconds at 19:08 UT, putting the craft into a descent orbit with a closest approach 14.5 km above the Moon's surface. At 20:05 the LM descent engine fired for 756.3 seconds and descent to the lunar surface began.

The LM landed at 20:17:40 UT (4:17:40 p.m. EDT) in Mare Tranquilitatis (the Sea of Tranquility), Armstrong reporting, "Houston, Tranquility Base here - the Eagle has landed." Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface at 02:56:15 UT on 21 July (10:56:15 p.m. July 20 EDT) stating, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind", and Aldrin followed 19 minutes later. The astronauts deployed the EASEP and other instruments, took photographs, and collected 21.7 kg of lunar rock and soil. The astronauts traversed a total distance of about 250 meters. The EVA ended at 5:11:13 UT when the astronauts returned to the LM and closed the hatch.

The LM lifted off from the Moon at 17:54:01 UT on 21 July after 21 hours, 36 minutes on the lunar surface. After docking with the CSM at 21:34:00 UT, the LM was jettisoned into lunar orbit at 00:01:01 UT on 22 July. Transearth injection began at 04:54:42 UT on 22 July with a 2 1/2 minute firing of the CSM main engine. A mid-course correction was made later on 22 July. The CM separated from the SM at 16:21:13 UT on 24 July. Apollo 11 splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on 24 July 1969 at 16:50:35 UT (12:50:35 p.m. EDT) after a mission elapsed time of 195 hrs, 18 mins, 35 secs. The splashdown point was 13 deg 19 min N, 169 deg 9 min W, 400 miles SSW of Wake Island and 24 km (15 mi) from the recovery ship USS Hornet.

The time was not selected deliberately to fabricate a proof. Ther only time of separation in your quote is the one with 54 minutes, what a coincidence!

Interesting Ahmad ... any info in the Quran

regarding the electrifying of planet Earth ?

Personally I value electricity far more than
a landing on lifeless rock.

Hi nomad

Interesting that no other nation has ever shown pictures of their astronauts bouncing about on the face of the moon like Japan, China, Russia etc ... I guess because they don't have a Hollywood to help out.

Again though how come no other government ever broadcast images of their astronauts bouncing on the moon?

Maybe that is because Japan, China, and Russia have never claimed to have sent a man to the Moon?

I can’t be sure if anyone has been to the Moon, but I can tell you that William Cooper’s misleading article is not one you should quote from.

Think about it this way, if Cooper’s claims about heat transfer in a vacuum where right, The Moon (and everything else in the Solar System that didn’t have a Van Allen belt) would have been fried a long time ago.

The only reason I have brought this up is because you didn’t seem overly convinced by the info I posted.

How would you explain all the other anomolies

mentioned on moonmovie.com ?

[DaddyLongLeg]

How would you explain all the anomalies mentioned on moonmovie.com?

Nomad, I’m not trying to say they did or didn’t go to the Moon, I’m just pointing out that William Cooper’s claims about heat transfer in a vacuum being detrimental to the Apollo missions are bogus.

I’m probably wrong about the four points being the same problem though; it’s more like two are the same problem.

One thing I am curious to know more about is how they shielded the command module crew from radiation, given that they even left orbit! I heard on the radio during this past week that the crew of the ISS had been ordered to take refuge into the most shielded section of the station due to an increased level of radiation experienced over the days that followed. That gives weight to the claim made at moonmovie regarding the shielding of astronauts from radiation back in 1969.

Has anyone seen his film?

[Ahmad]

Peace,

The problem with the moon landing hoax theory is the very weak arguments. Here is a good study refuting all the claims of the hoax theory supporters, including the unparallael shadows and the van alen radiation belt.
