re: So-called "moon landing"

It's impossible for man to fly to the moon in a rocket. 50 years later with 1 million times the technology
At the time, it was extraordinarily expensive, risky and ... eventually ... unnecessary.
How risky? Of the 36 Apollo mission astronauts - Apollo 1, 7-17, three were cooked alive. Three miraculously survived a mid-space capsule explosion, and there were several other near misses. So the fatality incidence was > 8% and could very easily have been double that.
As with the A-Bomb, our applied science in that era was decades ahead of the world. The Soviets stole our materials to close the gap. China remained 20 yrs behind.
What's changed? The concept of an eventual moonbase and Mars staging.
Perhaps your next denial should address the Hindenburg disaster? It must never have occurred because nothing the size of the Hindenburg has been built since. Right?
I M P O S S I B L E !

You're going to need more than 8 posts before you can talk like that to multi-time SECRant poster of Year Tuscaloosa.

I think you should speak to Buzz in person about this. I heard that he really enjoys having face to face conversations with moon landing deniers.
The dumbass didnt watch the entire video. He is trying to twist Buzz's words.

We print money like newspapers. No such thing as expensive when it comes to government agencies.

The comment you were responding to related to cost/gdp in 1969, not cost, risk, gdp at present.
Were you ever within 30 miles of an F1 engine when it fired up?

These people are so programmed by Adult-Onset Santa Claus Syndrome, that NO evidence is enough to "prove" to them that the IMPOSSIBLE was done -- several times! Cuz..."But...but...I saw it on Tee-Bee!!", "There are photos of the astronauts on da moon! -- I saw it and heard the TV broadcast!" And, anyway, "Why would my gubmint and NASA lie about such a thing??"
Interesting that you argue lack of evidence and the IMPOSSIBLE while at the same time reference 1 Corinthians 2:9 in your bio.
This, from a book written thousands of years ago about heaven and salvation, providing no evidence that either exist.
I'm a believer of both by the way, just pondering your rationale as to what is possible/impossible.

The alien lizard people are making inquiries and will comment at the appropriate time.

Just tell us something you observed that would be neat or interesting when you were working around them or the equipment.
The first guy I worked under was very much a German war immigrant, though he was somewhat younger than Von Braun and the others. He showed us his papers from his youth - Nazi stamps all over them. Having said that, do not give the German scientists too much credit. There were fewer than 100 of them, vs around 400,000 engineers and scientists that worked on Apollo.
In one of the warehouse visits, we found an Apollo-era spherical tank, perhaps 18" in diameter. It was stenciled "5000 psi". It was light as a feather, and seamless as far as we could tell. We believed it was explosively formed titanium. Exotic stuff.

You do realize every time you repeat this you sound dumber than the previous time, right?

Say what? That sounds crazy.

Ah, I get it now.
You’re one of those guys with the IQ of soggy cornflakes, but latches on to stupid shite like this to make yourself feel smart or something.
What bout dem horizons.

NASA lies more than the CIA, and there may have been a Capricorn One situation, but you have to remember there is a public NASA and then the secretive military side of NASA that’s technically part of the DOD.
That said we did land on the damn moon. Used to have a moon rock to prove it. (Wish I had that mfer now, worth a small fortune.)

Oh, so they had great cell phone towers on the moon in 1969.
A radio is a radio by any other name. Cellphones are simply digital radios, cell towers are digital receivers. In '69, the signal was analog, both the sending radio and the receiving side, all the way to the President's desk. Same core principles of physics apply. You just don't have enough brain cells to comprehend this.

these 1969 transistor radios can pick up signals 239,000 miles away for a crystal clear conversation? Today’s IPhones can’t do that.
Does light reach us from the moon? The sun? Other galaxies? Radio waves and light waves are the same type of energy, they all travel at the speed of light. If they are powerful enough, as directed radios are, they can travel as far as light without being dispersed.
Today's iPhones can in fact do that, their antennas will receive any signal that is powerful enough to reach them, and high enough to transverse the curvature of earth ( because you know the earth is almost a sphere right).

No. What does me being near an F1 have to do with the moon landing?
