can also laugh at people who believe the moon landing was fake simply because the United States stopped going



Nobody thinks its faked "SIMPLY" bc the US stopped going. Thats just a tiny piece of the puzzle.

1. Van Allen Radiation belt
2. Tech available at the time
3. Distance


And im open to seriously listen to any arguments regarding those issues and others.

Going to the moon is the fantastical claim and it's on those who claim we did to prove it. I haven't seen any evidence that holds up.


Of course you haven’t. That’s how conspiracy theorists work. They don’t believe any counter evidence regardless of the validity.

What about it? Astronauts experienced minimal amounts of radiation.

We put the world's most expensive telescope, the eleventy-billion dollar Hubble, into orbit around the Earth. Seems like it should have gotten a slew of 100 mega pixel images of all the NASA debris on the moon.

Instead they gave us this statement:

No, Hubble cannot take photos of the Apollo landing sites. An object on the Moon, even the size of a large house, is too small to resolve.

Every time I think you’ve reached peak tarded you find a way to outdo yourself. It’s pretty impressive

How? They couldn't put the amount of lead needed in the LM because it would never take off. Instead they used aluminum foil? I guess gold colored makes a difference.

Sad, really.

I know! I can't believe so many of you people believe in the moon.

1. Van Allen Radiation belt


It took only four days for Apollo to travel between the earth and the moon. Using a ballistic trajectory, Apollo's TLI burn was meant to achieve maximum velocity right around the time the spacecraft would be punching through the Van Allen belt - thus limiting exposure time.

quote:

2. Tech available at the time


Was designed specifically to fly to the moon. The Soviets were able to launch a spacecraft in September 1968 (Zond 5) that circumnavigated the moon and returned safely to earth, becoming the first unmanned spacecraft to do so. So the technology existed for humans to travel from the earth to the moon at that time.

quote:

3. Distance


The moon is less than 240,000 miles away. It's actually not that far.

You don't need lead to protect yourself from the radiation of the Van Allen Belt. The radiation in that part of space mostly comes from charged particles which don't penetrate fairly deeply and can be blocked with even something as thin as a sheet or two of aluminium foil.

Wrong. It’s only 32 miles away. Within the firmament. Daddy says so.

And yet they never sent a man to the moon EVER!!! In fact they've never sent anything alive out of orbit. The USA are the only ones. And we were told about it , shown limited images of it, limit video and audio.

The greatest achievement of mankind has barely anything to show for it. But we went. Believe your government overlords.

I hope yall are trolling. The amount of ignorance and retardation it takes to think the moon landing is a hoax is actually impressive.

It's the greatest hoax. 2 days ago a man would be on the moon if it was remotely possible. Instead we sent a robot with one leg. SUPPOSEDLY. We got to see a bunch of dorks golf clapping though. Good enough for yall.
