Did Man Really walk on the Moon??
 
This made me laugh,

Forty years ago more than half a billion people crowded around TV sets around the world to watch Neil Armstrong take the first steps on the Moon.
Unfortunately the footage was so blurry, it was sometimes difficult to see what the first two astronauts were doing on the lunar surface.

Now newly restored footage of the first Moon walk allows us to see images of the momentous occasion as never before.


Theres always be an element of doubt that man did indeed set foot on the moon, when you think in terms of the technology of the day etc.. in 1969 the computers we're so basic that now we have more powerful watches :rolleyes:

Nasa's refurbished videos capture details not clear from the original ghostly copies, some of which have not been viewed for decades.

The space agency employed a specialist Hollywood film restoration company to help clean up the images originally beamed to Earth from Apollo 11 on July 20 1969.

Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's first steps on the moon's surface were captured by a single small video camera aboard the lunar module.
But the grainy images that the world saw in 1969 came from a TV camera pointed at a giant wall monitor at mission control, of a live feed from pictures sent by satellite from Australia to California and relayed by landline to Houston.
The videos were originally stored on giant reels of tapes that contained 15 minutes of video along with 13 other channels of live data from the moon. But in the 1970s and 1980s, Nasa wiped and reused some of the tapes due to a shortage.
This is the bit i find VERY hard to believe

I mean one of the most historic events in the whole history of the Earth, and some guy decided to Record over them because they didn't have any more film?? yeah right!!

The whole of the Moon landings i feel were a scam, Things just don't add up, theirs been films of the US flag flapping about on the moon?? Whats that about, theres no wind on the moon???

Do you believe that Man landed on the moon in 1969, with the primative technology we had then, and that no one has even bothered to land their since??

Why is this so hard to believe? They probably had hundreds of hours of taped footage from the moon, from multiple cameras. Alot of it was likely junk.

Also the flag had a wire mesh in its fabric, which means it would have oscillated given an external force (which could have been either a transient input due to it being opened/moved, or a persistent input due to some small force on it due to the lunar environment).

Yes.

Yes....and it'll be forty years to that occasion in a few days.

They needed something to tape their soap operas on :/

I've always believed they landed on the moon. These conspiracy theories that say otherwise quite frankly have way too many problems and holes in them to be even remotely believable.

and the final question is : what did we gain by spending millions on sending a man to the moon ????

Nothing

Absolutely yes, with no doubt.

On a note, in these days the first photos of the landing sites taken by the amazing Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter have been published. They are breathtaking, google for them.

I hope you are joking right?

You cannot imagine the importance of the study of the moon soil to mankind, the advancements of technology at ALL levels thanks to the space programs (not only the US one), and finally the fact that the moon exploration has really changed completely the way we perceive the earth - people born after the landing have a completely different view of our planet, and this has been discussed many, many times.

Just a few years before the landing, reaching the moon was considered impossible. If one were to choose a single achievement that changed the world in all possible ways, well the first landing on the moon is definitely a good candidate.

Not to mention, one of the things that make mankind extraordinary is our desire of surpassing our limits, of going where we have never gone before - and this is, in the end, what will probably save us from extinction. Read a bit on the subject from scientists, and you will understand why space exploration means survival for the human race.
