1. The Empire Sate Building is in our earths atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt. 2. Planes flying at 35,000 feet are in our earths atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt. 3. Those satellites circling our planet are technically in our earths atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt.
Are you serious?? Neither the Empire State building or airplanes are anywhere NEAR the Van Allen belts. Some satellites might enter the region..not sure..I would think they would program the orbits to avoid it due to possible radiation damage.
4. The Moon is not in our atmosphere and well beyond the Van Allen Belt.
Well that's ONE thing you got right!
During the space race of the 60s no other country (Russia and China) sent any living thing (plant or animal) outside of the Van Allen Belt that didnt come back x-rayed to death. But, we did. Our government would never lie to us either.
Of course we did...because we spent billions and billions of dollars that the the other countries didn't have. The craft we sent out were shielded. The shielding is sufficient to stop nearly all radiation although there is slightly more exposure then a typical earther.
