I got a response from Proboards Support today. Apparently Playdor requested that they remove his posts. I consider this yet another reason create a new forum hosted elsewhere. I know that you had talked about doing this before, and the problem arose of not being able to transfer these threads to the new board. Couldn't this entire board be locked as an archive, and links be made by posters to it when necessary?

It does in pure, high pressure oxygen. See the Apollo 13 investigation report. I know. There's a discussion going on at JREF where a "friend" of forthethrillofitall doesn't seem to know this.

Somewhere I read some stories by those who did the model photography for the original Star Trek TV series. To get the required depth of field they had to work with extremely bright lighting. That made it very uncomfortable to work in their uncooled workspaces in the summertime. Gerry Anderson's puppet shows involved a lot of model work. Sometimes the takes were limited by how long it took the intense lighting to set the model's paint on fire... Did they have trouble keeping the pyros from going off prematurely?

Then I think you're either another sock or you have seriuos problems with reading threads before you respond to them. That post you responded to was over fifty pages ago.... I did read the whole thread. Not only is the guy a genius, he writes better than the rest of you. Does teflon burn?

I, for one, would like to see your fake lunar pictures. Analysis of them might prove interesting. Another one. This one with a sun. Don't ask about the Gemini One label in the corner. I'll explain if you really want to know, but for the most part, it's a stupid story. Okay, off the top of my head, the depth of field is way too shallow, especially if the "sun" is supposed to be the sole light source. The shallow DOF is understandable if the scene is a tabletop miniature, but you would never get away with representing it as a lunar landscape. The DOF could be improved by stopping down the lens aperture, but you would lose the blooming effect on the sun (it would get smaller due to decreased exposure, and you would lose most of the lens flare. That's all I have for now.

I think he was implying that the feather in the A15 feather/hammer drop was surreptitiously weighted, so that it would fall as if it was in a vacuum. Fred Can't happen; the feather was a flight feather - an airfoil. No matter how much it was weighted, the feather would flutter or spin when dropped.

I've seen soviet era photomanipulation. It fooled the viewer for about one microsecond.

I think all conspiracy claims require someone to be stupid. It's just who and how many people. The problem with Apollo claims, and the reason I've never been able to make a "working" conspiracy out of it, is that it requires practically everyone to be stupid. Yeah, such as trying to pass off a piece of petrified wood as a moon rock. Is there a list of stupid things that HBs have accused NASA of perpetrating in the name of the moon hoax?

His avatar says a lot about him. Hundreds of U.S. astronauts have gone through the US space program and have comported themselves with professionalism and honor, and at least 24 of them paid the ultimate price to extend man's reach to the stars - and damnsod picks that photo to, I presume, represent his opinion of space exploration.

Isn't A Satellite Something That's Orbiting In A State Of Decay... Hardly Interplanetory Missions Is It... More Like Near Earth Orbit...!!! Is there something wrong with your memory? "There Is No Evidence He Got Further Than, Oh I Dunno, The Stratosphere...!!!" Where is "Interplanetory Missions" in that sentence? Isn't LEO further out in space than the stratosphere?

Which answers my question not a bit. Von Braun Developed Ballistic Rocketery, There Is No Evidence He Got Further Than, Oh I Dunno, The Stratosphere...!!! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explorer_1

So a rocket scientist does rocket science. Why are you seemingly amazed? Braun engaged in brutal treatment or approved of it. Guy Morand, a French resistance fighter who was a prisoner in Dora, testified in 1995 that after an apparent sabotage attempt: Without even listening to my explanations, [von Braun] ordered the Meister to have me given 25 strokes... Then, judging that the strokes weren't sufficiently hard, he ordered I be flogged more vigorously...von Braun made me translate that I deserved much more, that in fact I deserved to be hanged... I would say his cruelty, of which I was personally a victim, are, I would say, an eloquent testimony to his Nazi fanaticism Biddle, Wayne. Dark Side of the Moonwww.nytimes.com/2010/01/10/books/review/Holloway-t.htmlWhich answers my question not a bit.

And? How is this evidence of a hoax? Not Evidence Of A Hoax, But Circumstancial Evidence That Von Braun Could Go Ballistic... But Not Beyond That...!!! On October 3, 1942 the A-4 was first launched from Peenemunde. Breaking the sound barrier, it reached an altitude of sixty miles. It was the world's first launch of a ballistic missile and the first rocket ever to go into the fringes of space.]

I may be wrong, but wasn't the SDI proposed by Ronald Reagan in 1983? 11 years after the last Apollo Moon mission? Wasn't The Nasa Space Programme Proposed By Werhner Von Braun... A Nazi Decorated War Hero, Poached By Project Paperclip... Post WW2 And? How is this evidence of a hoax?
