“NASA said it remote controlled the Apollo 17 lunar lift off shot from... Houston.”

They were pre-set commands. All that Houston did was initiate the sequence at liftoff minus three seconds. But at least you are now admitting that it was a shot made on the Moon. Congratulations.

The same shot was attempted on Apollo 15 and 16 without success. If the picture was faked, as Team Lunatic likes to insist, they would have had good pictures each time.

???? “All that Houston did was initiate the sequence at liftoff minus three seconds.”

Uh. No. Do you understand what type of equipment, battery power and video broadcasting transmitters/receivers would need to be in place for something like this to occur as NASA says?

Please explain what types of battery-powered broadcasting equipment would allow a mechanical “zoom” on a video camera from 1970... by remote control.. in a half a billion mile streaming video transmission... off the Lunar rover golf-cart’s battery?

You do understand analog video cameras of that time period, old fashioned analog color video cameras especially... did not run off battery power...

And what kind of mechanical remote controlled “zoom” and “tilt” could track this fake toy lunar capsule and hold the shot after the firecrackers were set off? (Notice no stabilizing thrusters, just some string at the top of a movie set... folks.)

APOLLO 17 ZOOM/TILT FOOTAGE:

THIS ZOOM/TILT FOOTAGE

WAS SUPPOSEDLY CONTROLLED OVER A HALF A BILLION MILE RELAY FROM THE MOON TO AUSTRALIA AND THEN TO HOUSTON TEXAS...

VIA AUSTRALIA'S DEEP SPACE STATION VIDEO RELAY...

AND THEN OVER ATT'S REGULAR OLD FASHIONED TELEPHONE POLE PHONE LINES (NO COAXIAL CABLE NETWORKS IN 1972!) WITHIN THREE SECONDS BACK TO THE "MOON"?

LOL... WATCH FOR THE FIRECRACKERS SOMEHOW SPARKING IN THE "LUNAR" NEAR VACUUM/OXYGEN FREE ENVIRONMENT, TOO!
