Brassnecks question=I know his name was Armstrong but how did he stick the pole of the flag through the solid rock of the moon.
Nasa said the lunar module landed on a place of solid rock with a little covering of moon dust.as the guys stick the pole into the solid rock their boots are only a few inches deep in the dust,so did Neil live up to name and with brut force drive the pole of the flag through solid rock.nobody ever asked this question so perhaps there is a simple explanation but I could not drive a pole through solid rock with my hands,but I guess I could do it in the area 51 soft ground.

Just watched the footage, the other bloke hammers one of those spiky flag holder things in the ground
|

By:
but they had to go through solid rock.the spiky flag holder must be good.did he use a sledgehammer or a hand hammer.

nasa now say that the flag fell after they left the moon.

Did they ever go there ???
I'd like to think so ...but the Juries still out for me...  |

If they didn't why has nobody squealed. So many involved with it.

Russia calls investigation into whether US moon landings happened.
The increasingly tense relationship between the United States and Russia might be about to face a new challenge: a Russian investigation into American moon landings. In an op-ed published by Russian newspaper Izvestia, Vladimir Markin, a spokesman for the government's official Investigative Committee, argued that such an investigation could reveal new insights into the historical space journeys. According to a translation by the Moscow Times, Markin would support an inquiry into the disappearance of original footage from the first moon landing in 1969 and the whereabouts of lunar rock, which was brought back to Earth during several missions. “We are not contending that they did not fly [to the moon], and simply made a film about it. But all of these scientific — or perhaps cultural — artifacts are part of the legacy of humanity, and their disappearance without a trace is our common loss. An investigation will reveal what happened,” - The Independent |

No I don't I'm convinced someone would have blabbed by now.

I agree bigmo. To think that thousands of peep have kept quiet for so long is laughable.

russia can send a rocket to the moon and photograph sites of landings
not difficult |

i saw o j simpson on mars too !
they pretended that was faked though |
|
By:
It would have been almost as difficult to fake it as actually land, I think they did land myself...
What about the other moon missions? |
|
By:
Excuse me, but I happen to own a good bit of land on the moon and have the deeds to prove it.
Aldrin parked the lunar module up in a restricted zone and it was towed away which is why it is no longer visible The parking charge for NASA is now 27 Martian Zongs, excluding penalties for non-payment, however, I'll knock 10 Zongs off if they pay up within 14 days.... that's my pension plan  |

A bit difficult to blab when you're looking down the barrel of a gun. |

America did land on the moon, they were the most advanced nation technologically ever, however Russia's Gagarin was not the first man in space. Russia simply didn't have the capability and in their closed society it was possible to cover up the truth. Gagarin was becoming too famous and threatened to defect to the west and reveal the truth. He died in 1967, apparently in a plane crash.

America's Alan Shepherd was the first man in space.

Do you recall when Russia`s Concordski made its first appearance at the Paris air show in the 1970s.
Almost a replica of Concorde and using stolen technology from the west. It arrived with great publicity and fanfare from Russia (they didn`t seem to have any shame that they had stolen the ideas from the West) It blew up on its maiden appearance, in front of hundreds of potential buyers and the worlds press. |
|
By:
i think it was flying for a few years before one blew up in paris
and i think it was used as part of their space program after it was retired when an improved version blew up too tupolov tu 144 pretty sure it was a decent card to have in top trumps !!! |
|
By:
The Tupolev didn't actually 'blow up', but broke up in mid air at the top of its climb about 2 minutes after take off from the Paris Air Show. It fell in bits to the ground and had already almost completely disintegrated long before it actually impacted with the ground.

Science proves that NASA faked the moon landings - Moon landing Hoax https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7pzg9xpAOE Ron thousands of conspiracy theories out there and all claiming science on their side. Because someone states something and calls it a fact doesn't make it so. I've seen the vids saying they can prove this a fake and the vids proving these claims to be false. Think of how many people were involved. Do you really think they would remain quiet. |

Moon landing- like I say for me the Juries still out !
|

By:
"The Tupolev didn't actually 'blow up', but broke up in mid air" ...
I remeber seeing it live on TV ...shocking. From what I remember ... the Russian Pilot was "showing off" put the aircraft outside of it's safe "flight envelope" and as you say - the aircraft just broke up in mid air. |
|
By:
Rockinron -yup, that's just about right.
|
|
By:
anybody who thinks they landing on the moon are nuts,it was back in 69 impossible!
|
|
By:
You do realise they managed to fly in 1908? Now if we have managed to achieve something like that in the last 40 years let me know.
|

By:
The furthest man has been is the Apollo 13 mission. They went around the back of the moon. 250 000 miles from Earth.
That was 46 years ago. What remains odd to me is that man has never been back or even further which is the norm in exploration. I accept the cost as a percentage of Govt's budgets was horrendous but the success of the missions proves no updated technology would be needed.. Just use a similar crate that they went in previously.  |

watch this then, if you really want an explanation. It's only 4 minutes long

Was the Flag made in CHINA ?
Moon dust an issue? on several fronts - the moon has no defence against UV light, therefore no rocks should exist. the light should reduce them all to powder. Yet they are there. also the meteorite dust that falls onto the moon should be very, very deep. Yet it's only a few inches? They don't even know why we have it? the distance is perfect for eclipses within the last 5 thousand years? same time as recorded history? All too convenient? Another FKin coincidence. |

Talking of China, they had a lunar rover earlier this year sending back colour pictures. Turns out that in colour, the moon looks the same as it does in black and white -- grey rocks and dust.

nope - i'm not an entertainer, you can google it. you have a computer i'm sure of that.
|
|
By:
but - meteorites strike the earth's atmosphere every day, our atmosphere burns them up. the moon has no defences against the minute dust, no atmosphere. It does have some gravity a sixth so it should all adhere to it. But it's missing? Quite a mystery.

The American flag that was planted on the moon in 1969 has now been bleached completely white because of the UV rays.

i refer you to the work of Professor Hawkworth BSC. PHK. LDF.
his work is quite comprehensive. most insightful. Mercury is quite small... I'm melting, I'm melting... |
