Who was the first person to walk on the moon,Neil Armstrong or th cameraman who filmed it ?

Question

Personally nobody landed on the moon,with todays technology compared to then, we should be living on it.Not sending remote control cars to Mars,seen it done it wore the T shirt to the Moon, on to Mars, don't think so!

Answer 1

Neil Armstrong. He was filmed by cameras built into the lander.

Aloha

Answer 2

Laura, get this straight and don't be foolish about it any more, okay? The basic technology required for a manned flight to the moon was developed in Germany in the late 1930s through the mid 1940s. This technology needed a lot of refinement to make a safe manned flight a reality.

We worked on that technology through the 1950s and 60s, and made the first flight in 1969. It all fits together, and if you read all the history and don't let the wackos lie to you, it will be impossible for you to continue to be fooled into believing that the moon missions did not take place.

The American people were much better educated and more intelligent in the 1960s and 70s than they are now, and it would never have occurred to NASA engineers and managers that 35 years later a bunch of ignorant dolts with nothing to do would come up with a stupid conspiracy theory stating that the moon landings were faked.

If that had occurred to them, I suspect they would have gone to the trouble to create a larger and more visible object of proof, to compensate for the decline in the quality of the American mind and its education that occurred during and after the Reagan presidency.

But there is a real physical proof available. The astronauts who landed on the moon left behind reflectors that are used every day by astronomers to measure the irregularities of the moon's orbit. This is done by bouncing laser beams off reflectors at known locations that were left by the astronauts. Ask your science teacher for information about these experiments. You can arrange to see this done with your own eyes.

Let me put the question to you this way: If you think the moon landings were faked, when did they become "fake?" When did the idea become popular that NASA had invented the idea of an imaginary moon mission and created a huge technological empire to fool people? When was all this fakery done? In the 60s? 70s? 80s?

And why? What was the point? And how did they fool all the people that reported the news, operated the machinery, built the moon rockets, and watched them take off and land?

Do you realize that one American in 500 was a part of the Apollo program? Millions of them are still alive. Are they fooling you? Why? If you go out to a football game, look around you. In the stadium there are people who worked on the Apollo program.

Ask around. You are surrounded by people who know for sure that American astronauts stood on the moon more than 35 years ago.

Answer 3

Neil Armstrong, But the technology is not the problem, the Apollo Space Program had a Open ended Budget in order achieve its objective, which by the time Apollo 17 landed on the Moon the criteria had well and truly been met and the program was promptly curtailed.
In comparison, today's technology is pretty impressive, but then again so is inflation even with President Bush's pledge to NASA to fund a manned mission to Mars, there are no Open ended Budgets this time round and unmanned probes are still required to do the donkey work but money does indeed make the world go round.

Answer 4

Ofcourse Neil Armstrong.There was no cameraman.I hope all the answers together have convinced you.There was no need for a cameraman.
There are practical problems which needs to be solved before we can start living on the Moon or Mars.Their atmosphere and gravity ( lot less than that of the Earth) are two of the main ones.
Also imagine how much food and oxygen need to carried on a journey to the Mars !Even with todays technology it would take several months to get there.

Answer 5

I heard the commentary of the American trip to the moon back in 1969. Even hearing it on radio it was obvious to me that Neil Armstrong ,Edwin .Aldrin and Michael Collins landed and walked on the moon. Probes often travel across the solar system sending back pictures of planets ; picture and other information are sent back by radio Also , Pete Conrad and Alan Bean landed on the moon November 1969 , Alan .Shepherd and Edgar Mitchell landed in January 1971 plus six others landed between July 1971- December 1972. Last pair to land on the moon were Harrison Schmitt and Gene Cernan in December 1972. The first landers took the cameras , and they did the LIVE filming themselves ; done in an advance method . What I heard in July 1969 was a LIVE , on the spot commentary of the Moon trip. Others saw a LIVE eye-witness commentary/ film of the Moon landing and the moon walk.

Answer 6

Neil Armstrong

Answer 7

Neil Armstrong. Here's how the video was to be taken:

"The TV camera was stowed in an instrument pallet in the Lunar Module's descent stage. When Armstrong was at the top of the ladder, he pulled a lanyard to swing open the pallet, which was hinged at the bottom. The TV camera, which was attached to it, also swung down. Buzz Aldrin then switched on the camera from the Lunar Module cabin. The camera was pointing at the ladder of the Lunar Module so that TV pictures of Armstrong's initial steps on the Moon could be relayed to the world.
The camera was later removed from its mounting and placed on a tripod some 30 feet from the Lunar Module, where it was left unattended to cover the remainder of the moonwalk."

Answer 8

Neil Armstrong

Answer 9

Neil Armstrong!

Answer 10

Armstrong was there, with photos to prove it.

To anybody who trots out this idiotic "no stars" argument, I have a simple suggestion: Take a camera (an old one that uses film) out to a dark place on a moonless starry night. Stand somebody in the headlights of your car (to model the low sunlight shining on the astronauts). Take a picture of them with the stars behind. How many stars do you think you'll see in the developed picture?

Photographing stars takes long exposures (several mimutes) with wide open apertures and a mount that moves in sync with the stars' movement (less of a problem on the Moon). You couldn't possibly film a moving person in strong lighting at the same time.

Since anyone with the slightest knowledge of photography knows this, even hare-brained conspiracy theorists, such theorists obviously don't believe their own drivel - if they did they'd too dumb even to dream up the idea in the first place.
