    Once you realize that the moon is a GIANT SUN REFLECTOR then you understand why there are no stars in moon photos. To put it more technically, the moon's asphalt-colored lunar dust reflects 12% of sunlight that hits its surface. Imagine pointing your camera at something 12% as bright as the sun. You're not gonna see any stars.

    14:55 Aerospace Engineer here! In regards to the astronaut’s movements, another reason that they move so unintuitively is because the suits are pressurized, so moving limbs in the way what we would normally move them on Earth takes a lot more effort than people realize (think of yourself being stuck in a human shaped balloon that is made out of tough fabric instead of the thin rubber balloons are typically made of). Humans are also really good at adapting their movements to take less effort overall as well, so with the Moon being 1/6th of Earth’s gravity, the astronauts naturally took the approach of just hopping and drifting around instead of walking because it was just simply more efficient to move that way.

  • @FrankyPi

    I wonder if the same would be the case in large pressurized modules or corridors that are big enough to walk in, like when bases start being established. There would be no motion limitations of a suit, walking normally would take less effort than on Earth, but would it still be the best or most efficient option is interesting to think about.

    They knew it was faked - so why would it upset them? Actually the argument hundreds of thousands of Nasa employees and contractors must have been in on the deception seems a weak one. Surely even the flattest of earthers would acknowledge there was a space programme with rockets and satellites, so most of those people wouldn't have been in on the 'secret'. You'd just need the key players acting it out in Nevada and a few others higher up. I mean, did Nixon even know Watergate was being bugged? But of course I don't think the moon landing was faked. If the first landing was faked, what about the others? And if I was one of those engineers I don't suppose I'd be concerned about a few tin hat nutters on the Internet.

    As someone who has walked in 1/6th gravity, it's hard . You have to retrain your whole way of thinking. You jump super high even if you're trying to walk forward. It's very easy to lose your balance and get off kilter. Oftentimes, you end up jumping in place because you can't move forward. I went to space camp as a kid, so I feel what they felt when walking on the moon. It's a relatable experience that I won't forget.

    I assume the 1/6th gravity was simulated by a pulling mechanism? In that case you didn't feel exactly how 1/6th gravity feels, because all of your body is still being pulled down by 1g, you're only being mechanically lifted up by a force of 5/6th of your weight. To get an exact feel and simulation of what 1/6g is like, you would need to go to one of these parabolic flight aircraft also known as the Vomit comet where for a short periods of time they can simulate microgravity, or any low gravity like lunar or martian. That's what Mythbusters did in one of their debunking episodes.

    In all fairness, they aren't really conspiracy theories. They are conspiracy hypotheses, because a theory actually already established some facts that support the theory. A hypothesis is an idea that hasn't even been tested yet, and therefore has no evidence to support it. And let's face it: while almost anyone with an imagination can dream up a conspiracy hypothesis, most people don't have the ability to genuinely investigate a possible conspiracy. They don't know how to investigate, they lack the information needed to properly follow a paper trail without getting lost, they usually have no real expertise in the various technology disciplines needed to build a working rocket, plot an orbit, let alone navigate in three dimensional space where there are no GPS beacons to help out. So when someone tells them something, they have no ability to know if it's the truth or a lie. And since they are already inclined to believe in a conspiracy, no matter how improbable, they tend to throw out the data that disagrees with their biases. Add in the fact that many people have developed a false distrust of science and scientists, and they start displaying an attitude of "if a scientist says it, it's a lie". Which is counter-productive on multiple levels.

    My teacher in 6th grade (12 years old) showed us the Dark Side of the Moon mockumentary as an exercise in critically examining the information you are presented with. He just played it with no commentary, and then asked our opinions afterward about whether we believed the moon landing was faked. Most of the class were at least a little skeptical. And then he walked us through the lesson on critical though, dissecting what we are presented with, the strategies that can be used to convince viewers to believe the story. And that lesson has stuck with me ever since, to this day. It was such an important lessons about not believing everything you see, and actually critically examining what you are presented with - even before the days of the internet (and disinformation) being common. I've always been grateful for that lesson, I just wish it was something more people had a chance to be taught. Edit for clarity - the mockumentary Dark Side of the Moon is a film that presents all the conspiracy theory "proof" that the moon landing was faked. The film is trying to convince you that the moon landing never happened. It's an exercise in how convincing disinformation can be, how presenting info in specific ways can make it believable, in how there's always a purpose to media and you have to examine that critically.

He had the experience of landing a shuttle at night. He stepped out of the vehicle after landing, looked up, and noticed the stars all seemed much brighter than when he looked at them from orbit. Back then, he could not use Google to find out why. _You_ can.

I watched the moon landing as it happened in the house of one of the many engineers who worked on the lander, and I gotta say that was the most exciting event ever either before or since - the City of Los Angeles went up with a ROAR that went on for a good long time and the world was celebrating for weeks on end! Nothing since has even come close, and by the way, it only took 66 years from the first powered flight in 1903 for this to happen!

    The phrase “conspiracy theory“ was invented by the CIA. It means “investigative journalism.“ If we had gone to the moon, we would have a base on the moon by now. After the airplane was invented, it was only a few years later that we were killing each other with airplanes in the first world war. The strategic advantage of having a base on the moon for military purposes it’s so huge that the fact that we don’t have one is a significant argument for the fact that the entire trip to the moon was a fantastic movie and that’s all it was

An average civilian who went to the cape to watch the launch might not be able to see where it went once it was over the horizon, but the Soviet Union would be able to see it on radar and track where it went. They would be able to use radio direction finding to locate where the radio transmissions from the crew were coming from so if they were nowhere near the moon, the soviets would know. And if they're making a multi-stage rocket big and powerful enough that can rise its orbit high enough to do a trans-lunar injection, then THAT'S A SATURN V AND THEY MAY AS WELL DO IT FOR REAL!

    Soviet moon program via the N1 rocket wasn’t cancelled until 1974, we’ll after the success of Apollo. The cancellation was also not due to “losing the race” as they had continued the project with the intent of constructing a long term moon base. Rather, It was cancelled due to the rival of the original architect of the project coming to power and shutting down the program after 4 failed launches.

One important question that never gets brought up is how difficult it would have been to leave the moon. Look how much fuel is needed to leave the earth... If we could get to the moon, how would be be able to launch again and get back? 1/6 the gravity, indeed, but wouldn't we need approx 1/6th the fuel, or something sizeable?? I don't know what happened, but I almost never believe the official story after seeing so many official stories turning out to be false.

Instead of countering "Why are there shots from the surface of Armstrong FIRST getting off the lander" with evidence of the cameras on the lander itself, I counter with "what kind of director going for realism would put camera's somewhere camera's hadn't been put yet?" People trying to trick other people, rely on what those people expect to see/hear...not something confusing to them. Film makers break the rules of physics all the time to make something seem believable, and we believe it! Why would they do the opposite at such a critical moment.

    What about the Van Allen Belts? The only people that have an issue with them are the incredulous, scientifically illiterate and dumb online conspiracy theorists that tell their followers what to think. Artemis 1 not only sought to validate and test the performance of the onboard Orion systems during traverse of the belts, but also coinciding with a solar maximum gain more understanding of the radiation in cislunar space. The mannequin that you appear to be referring to was equipped with the first-generation Orion Crew Survival System suit - a spacesuit astronauts will wear during launch, entry, and other dynamic phases of their missions. It was fitted with sensors to record gs and acceleration in order that engineers could compare Artemis I flight data with previous ground-based vibration tests with the same test dummy, and human subjects, to correlate performance. Accelerometers inside Orion yielded data for comparing vibration and acceleration between the upper and lower seats. It also evaluated the integration of the newly designed systems with an energy dampening system that the seats are mounted on. In terms of radiation, Orion is a completely different craft to Apollo designed for longer duration and distance The longest Apollo mission was Apollo 17 at 12 days - in comparison, Artemis 1 was 25 days (42 originally) and unlike Apollo reached an apogee around the moon of 40,000 miles. The mannequin was also testing a new radiation shielding vest, called the astrorad. Also, as explained, coinciding with peak solar activity provided a tremendous opportunity to gain more data in respect of the crew cabin and its systems.

It’s a photo taken by the astronauts who were a part of that mission while they were on the moon.

    @@aychingao no it’s not weird. The lunar rover was designed to be as light as possible to save on fuel costs, so it was only 210 kg (460 lb on earth). The astronauts with their space suits on weighed close to that same amount though a bit less. But the astronauts tended to bounce around when “walking” which would also add additional impact force compressing the lunar dust, and then separate in a mostly vertical direction leaving the footprint undisturbed. The rover on the other hand had rolling contact, which wouldn’t have as much impact force, and would often smudge its own tracks as the wheel rolled off. Plus, the rover has four large tires to spread the weight over, while the astronauts weight is over a much smaller bootprint area, particularly if they alternated bouncing on one leg then the other. From other photos, the tracks of the lunar rover are visible, they’re just a lot more subtle than those of the astronauts.

    Strange that 65yrs later, we’re struggling to replicate the technology from back then. We’ve been trying to get back to the moon for 20yrs now, and we don’t even have space suits that can withstand the conditions, but they originally made it with just 9yrs of preparation and the computing power of a calculator. Then, they went back 5 more times without losing a single life (except for the cameraman who was stranded there after filming the final liftoff in 1973, or did we also possess motion-sensing camera control technology sophisticated enough to not only follow a spacecraft as it lifted off but zoom in while keeping it in frame?). The entire reason most conspiracy theories exist is so that people who doubt things like this can be lumped in with the nuts who believe the earth is flat. If you really dive into the details of the technological leaps that were necessary for this and what the Soviets were doing at the same time (and the reasons they never tried to make it to the moon), it actually makes much more sense that it was faked.

The GCTA is the granddaddy of all the motorized remote control camera mounts in the world today. They tried to get the shot on Apollo 15, but the assembly blew a clutch and couldn't move. So all you see if the lift off and the ascent module very quickly moving out of frame. They tried again on Apollo 16, but were parked a bit too close. The stepper motor driving the pan up could not move fast enough so while it took a bit longer, the ascent module still went out of the top of the frame. For Apollo 17 they parked the lunar rover the camera was mounted on further away so it did not need to track as fast. Mission control had about a two second comm lag so sent the track up command two seconds before the scheduled lift off time. Nailed it.

    While I'll just set aside how you're 10 years off the mark in the basic math required to subtract 1969 from 2024... NASA has desired to go back there since Apollo was cancelled, but they got told by the US govt to spend their far lesser funds on other projects. There's been a continuing stream of proposals from NASA, but only the current one (Artemis) has actually been approved, which is why they're working towards it now. However you really seem to not understand much at all about the goals they have now, compared to Apollo. Apollo EVA suits were taken to their limits on the final Apollo missions, and it was obvious after Apollo 17 that they would not be able to sustain much, if any, use beyond the time they were on that mission. And with current plans being for LONG stays, with MANY TIMES as long EVA time, they thus have to design something that's MUCH harder to build than what's basicly use and discard suits from the Apollo era. They lost THREE PEOPLE in the Apollo 1 fire, with 3 more in extreme peril on Apollo 13. In addition there was a wide set of issues that could have cut other missions short (from being unable to dock and extract the LM on Apollo 12, etc). remote controlled cameras were decades old btw. So you just prove one thing.. the entire reason most conspiracy theories exists is ignorance combined with arrogance.

    If you study this subject and understand the science, historical perspective and the equipment and procedures used, you will come to the conclusion that limited spaceflight was perfectly possible in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, and that the United States did in fact put men on the Moon. It was one of the most public events of the 20th century, viewed around the world. Any conspiracy would had to have involved hundreds of different people from many different countries over decades, including Great Britain, the former Soviet Union, France, Australia, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Canada, China, Japan and India, from which not one credible witness has ever emerged. It would also have been impossible to cover up for such a length of time; the Watergate conspirators couldn’t keep their escapade silent for more than a few months. There are no ‘anomalies’ that cannot be explained scientifically and there is much third-party corroboration; for example, the spacecraft were tracked to the Moon, the rock and soil samples have been authenticated by many different scientists around the world for decades, the dust from the rover falls back in a way only possible in a 1/6g vacuum and Chinese, Japanese and Indian probes have photographed and or observed the equipment left behind at various Apollo landing sites.

    One thing Harris didn’t cover is the special effects in 2001: A Space Odyssey _DO NOT HOLD UP!_ Like, I think this is a really salient point that rarely gets talked about. The effects are not convincing! Someone can say all day _”we didn’t have the technology in 1969 to make it to the moon”_ well, Buddy, we didn’t have the technology to make good enough fake footage! 2001 looks _BAD_ and the matting lines are obvious. A whole-ass decade passed before Star Wars and, *guess what!?* Star Wars doesn’t hold up either! The effects are not that much better than they were in 1967, despite the addition of Dykstra-flex computer-controlled motion cameras (which Kubrick didn’t have). We have dozens and dozens of HOURS of great footage from various moon missions. Footage with events that would have been impossible to fake convincingly at the time _and_ would have been cost prohibitive even for the US government. You think NASA had a big budget? Try making them pay for a hundred hours of the best-quality optical matting of multiple counter-rotating crossing bodies-something Kubrick could only manage a couple minutes of _unconvincingly_ in his film.

    The Kubricks, to their annoyance, get asked about this all the time. I was at The Museum of the Moving Image in New York and someone asked his daughter where Kubrick was the day of the moon landing. "With us... at home....watching it on TV with his family like everyone else," was the answer. Kubrick was also disappointed when he saw the actual photos of the Earth -- it was much bluer than he had expected. If you look at the image of the Earth in "2001: A Space Odyssey", it is very grey and cloudy -- like the entire Earth gets as much sun as rainy England.

It's an original Apollo photograph. - You kept referring to "Fox News" as the network that released the show about the moon landings in 2001, but it was actually the regular Fox TV Network.

Instead they claim that the actual terrain matches up with the NASA images.
