Hello, Rick. Maybe the hoax dummies have given up. (dare to dream) One of the many indisputable facts about the reality of the apollo missions were the tracking stations in Australia. Spain, and California. One of Bart Sibrel’s brainless claims was that nasa used a TETRA- A training satilite to fool the MSFN (manned space flight network) operators into thinking that this was the spacecraft! They have to precisely aim the antenna (85 ft. diameter at Honeysuckle creek, Australia) to an inbound or outbound apollo spacecraft (towards the moon) while this satilite orbits the earth every 92 minutes. Maybe Buzz Aldrin is embarassed by punching Sibrel in the face (I hope not), but it sure is fun to watch! It sort of illustrates how all of us who know the truth, feel about these twits. Yes, we should ignore them , but some of this hoax crap will reach young people’s ears and totally missinform our future generations. That IS something to think about!

It is just like I said: “If you can fly one of those hoax Believers to the Moon, and let them touch Apollo hardware, even in that moment, they still won’t believe that Moon landing actually happened”. Long time ago I decided not to try to convince any one of those morons or argue with them, about Apollo program. Greetings!

Chandan, the orbit of the LRO is much better already, and as has been posted already, here is your pole:

@ Ross Hagemann
Hey, chandan, U gut any more of dat stuff Uwr smokin’?
Yes sir,its in plenty but r u ready to inhale?
in fact many of other guys around me also have lot of dat stuff to smokin
because they know what the fact is:-
@ murieum:—
I was not knowing that my queries will catch so hard on you that you even forget the spelling of your name {660. ((( muriem))) Says: } Anyway:–
Within few days after confirmation of water on moon a rocket hit the moon sent by NASA but I don’t know when the LRO will reached its final orbit to get those pictures[its more than a year now]Just confirm when it will comes to its final orbit.?

If Iam bend on flag poles or flag why are you running away from this? If LRO can catch and send
the freaking cool pictures of landing site why not the poles or its shadow of many a metre in length(if not c.m or mm)

About the waterthing, again you don’t understand a second of the physics involved.:—
you don’t worry about my understanding on the physics involved. you can continue with your explanation.May be I can’t understand a second of the physics involved but now I can understand a bit of the chemistry involved in your explanation.

…another thing, nobody has said enough about the astronauts themselves. All of them except senator Shmitt were test pilots before they entered the space program. Neil Armstrong among others flew the x-15 to the edge of outer space and speeds beond mach-6!. Buzz Aldrin was a fighter pilot in Korea and shot down a mig-15. Most of us can’t imagine the level of fear involved. Most of these men flew fighter planes in the cold war…some of them carrying nuclear missles under thier jets. Can you say HUGE B—S?!!! What about riding atop a converted titan missle on the Gemini missions? Space walk? Any first hand accounts of riding a Saturn V was close to horrific! Bill Anders (apollo thought they’d bought the farm because of the tremendous shaking. My point is, obviously, that these men are (and were) UNBELIVEABLY COURAGEOUS!!!! They’ve looked death in the eye more than once and they’re NOT the kind of person you can BUY OFF, or convince them to lie for ANY REASON!!!! That is what makes me so stinking furious about this HOAX GARBAGE!!! You JOHN (size 12) being in the military should know this!

To add to the laser reflector information, the lunar reconnaissance orbiter pulses a single laser beam to create a high resolution global topographic map of the moon. However, the LOLA (lunar orbiting laser altimeter) is turned off as it passes over the apollo 11, 14, and15 landing sites as bouncing the laser off of any the retroreflective mirrors on experiments left by the astronauts might damage the instrument. In fact, the light bounced back would be 1,000 times the detector damage threshold! Also, the Soviet Union’s Lunakhod spacecraft deployed 2 reflectors, 1 of which has never been found by laser, and the other works properly. The Russians were helpfull in locating these reflectors. While conspiracy nuts debate the reality of the apollo landings, scientists must deal with some of the practical consequences of what astronauts put on the moon.

JOHN (666) , I suppose we’re both idiots, and obviously passionate about our beliefs. The Soviets did leave 2 reflective mirrors from unmanned missions, 1 did not work, but you have to point a lazer to the proper location (3 apollo landing sites or 1 Soviet site) to make it reflect- so you will decide it’s the much smaller Soviet mirror, of course. Did you watch the Mythbusters episode? It explains the mirror reflection quite well. I suppose, I should apologize to Discover magazine and to Phil, we don’t want this blog to end up in fist fights! I just get so disgusted with ALL hoax believers as leaving this planet and walking (driving) on the moon is the most incredible journy in human history. I feel privileged to have been alive when it happened! I also realize that it’s a waste of time, trying to change someones mind, who is more interested in pride, rather than realizing that they could be wrong.(Time now for wasting time) O.K., size 12, let me see how educated you are. How many manned lunar missions were there?(faked in your mind of course) How many men went to the moon (all liars to you) ? How far is it to the moon? What was the parked earth orbit velocity of the apollo spacecraft before leaving for the moon? What altitude? What was the TLI escape velocity? What was the name of the booster that acomplished this? How long was the burn? How long did it take to get to the moon? How long was the burn on the service module to decrease the velocity for lunar orbit? What was the altitude? Velocity? READ the commet 374 from Nigel Depledge…someone a lot smarter than you or I, and have a nice day! P.S. Don’t call me dear!
