Did the US actually sent astronauts to the moon?

Question

I heard from a friend that it is impossible to pass the radiation belt or some sort without any problem? how true is it?

Answer 1

US says it has sent a man to moon six times. and for each time it has sent a mission a lunar buggy and a landing module has been left behind. Now with so much of technology, high precision space and territorial telscopes and satellites revolving around moon. Can NASA just give us one picture of any of the things left behind there.. I guess NO, coz they'l just rubbish all the doubts anyone has and say that they dont need to give clarifications..

Okay so the astronauts passed the radiation belt unharmed now what about these glitches in NASA released videos:

1. With sun as the only source of light(as claimed by NASA) how are the shadows of rocks going in different directions?

2. How did the lunar landing module work so perfectly in an alien environment when it crashed just a fortnight before the take off during testing in a controlled earth environment?

3. If landing module indeed used rocket thrusters for landing and take off on moon then where is the blast crater at the landing site?

4. How were we able to hear the astronauts voice at the time of landing on moon when rocket thrusters were at full flow?Coz that will require some hell of sound proofing..!!

5. Why does the NASA videos if played at twice the speed seem to show as if the astronauts are running on earth only..??

These are only some of the questions.. And as for hiding such a big farce..most of the NASA officials do not need to know the whole picture, once take off is done.. we will only come to know whatever NASA told us..


PS: to all the US patriots just see the Moon hoax documentary made by a US news channel which will give u a number of things to think about!!

Answer 2

Not true. A quick trip throught the radiation belts will give you about as much exposure to radiation in an hour as you get in a day on Earth - so very little. The longer you spend there, the greater your exposure, but the astronauts go through quickly. Also, they went through a hole in the radiation belts known as the southern polar anomoly to futher limit exposure. Your friend is mistaken - yes, we have been to the moon. Many times.

Answer 3

I remember the day it happened. It was August 1969 and I had been up all night. It was about 5 or 6 in the afternoon and I wanted to go to sleep. The moon could wait, but somebody was playing the radio, listening to the whole news thing, like a sports show.

I've also seen the moon lander at the Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC.

Answer 4

Your friend is misguided. The US did send austronauts to the moon, and they faced peril at every turn, its a miracle they returned alive. They even placed reflectors that people still bounce lasers off of to measure the exact distance of the moon. The Soviet Union was in a space race with us and even monitored some of our activities, if they had any doubts they would have been screaming 'liars'!

There is radiation and the astronauts had limited protection, the radiation fluctuates and isnt always lethal. Do you also doubt that man has orbited the Earth? John Glenn doesnt have any doubts, ofcourse he was the one to do it...

Answer 5

So many people still have doubts about landing men on the moon, and good reason for it too. Since there is so much radiation out in the exosphere (space) how can the American flay still be looking the same, with so much radiation all around. Notice how often they need to repair that space station, radiation, radiation, radiation.

Answer 6

They go so fast there is no problem getting through the thin radiation belt around earth. I always wonder how people who think it was not real explain how thousands of NASA people have kept it quiet or why the Russians, who were in a race with us, didn't expose the fake? Believe me - it happened!

Answer 7

Amazing isn't it? We eagerly believe in god but sending a man to the moon??? No!!! fake. sham, cover up. It is interesting how a bunch of ignoramus people know it's a sham and the ones who would really love to discredit the US have kept silent about it. I'm referring to the USSR, China and Europe. They all wanted to see the US with egg on its face. And you can bet your life that they really tried to find something wrong with it. (but I'm sure there is some sort of conspiracy theory to cover this). This is a mother of conspiracies It involves thousands of people all over the world at least a dozen governments and these bozos claim it never happened . What a load of crap

Answer 8

so all you people are gonna sit here and tell us that we are morons for thinking its a hoax? stupid stupid people, our government lies about almost every issue there is, why not the moon? why would they want to loose to Russia? How the hell did NASA travel 238,857 miles in 1969? Think about the technology in 69'. Earth is about 24,000 miles round. So that's about 9 or so trips around earth. So you stupid people keep believing what are government puts out those boxes we have in our living rooms and bedrooms. Forget about logic and common sense if the government said it, then its true! hell, look at all those weapons of mass destruction they found in Iraq.

Answer 9

Nah! It was all filmed in a sound stage in Area 51! lol

Of course we actually sent men to the moon. Ask Buzz Aldrin or Neil Armstrong about it; they were there!

Answer 10

he purpose of the Apollo 11 mission was to land men on the lunar surface and to return them safely to Earth. The crew was Neil A. Armstrong, commander; Michael Collins, Command Module pilot; and Edwin E. Aldrin Jr., Lunar Module pilot.

After launch, the spacecraft was inserted into lunar orbit about 76 hours into the mission. After a rest period, Armstrong and Aldrin entered the Lunar Module preparing for descent to the lunar surface. The two spacecraft were undocked at about 100 hours, when the Command and Service Modules separated from the Lunar Module. The spacecraft landed in the Sea of Tranquillity at 4:18 p.m. EDT. Afterwards, they ate their first meal on the Moon and decided to begin the surface operations earlier than planned.

A Lunar Module camera provided live television coverage of Armstrong setting foot on the lunar surface at 10:56 p.m. EDT. Just as he stepped off the Lunar Module Neil Armstrong proclaimed, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Aldrin emerged soon after, setting foot on the lunar surface at 11:16 p.m. EDT. Aldrin evaluated his ability to operate and move about and was able to move about rapidly and with confidence. Forty-seven pounds of lunar surface material were collected to be returned for analysis. The surface exploration was concluded in 2½ hours, when the crew re-entered the lunar module.

After lunar ascent, the Lunar Module docked with the Command and Service Modules at 128 hours. The crew transferred into the Command and Service Modules, the ascent stage was jettisoned and they prepared for trans-Earth injection. Only one midcourse correction was required, and passive thermal control was used for most of trans-Earth coast. Bad weather made it necessary to move the splashdown point 346 kilometers (215 miles) downrange. Atmospheric entry phase was normal, and the command module landed in the Pacific Ocean at 195¼ hours. The landing coordinates, as determined from the onboard computer, were 13 degrees 30 minutes north latitude and -169 degrees 15 minutes east longitude.

With the success of Apollo 11, the national objective to land men on the Moon and return them safely to Earth had been accomplished. (So now do you know that your friend is wrong.)
