Stephen Curry is pretty sure the moon landing was faked, just in case you cared
Yahoo Sports ^ | December 10, 2018 | Ben Rohrbach

I think what we’re learning here is that NBA players are huge fans of conspiracy theories.

Nearly two years after Kyrie Irving said the Earth is flat on a podcast with then-Cleveland Cavaliers teammates Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye, fellow All-Star point guard Stephen Curry informed us that man never landed on the moon during an appearance with Golden State Warriors teammate Andre Iguodala on a new podcast featuring Atlanta Hawks players Vince Carter and Kent Bazemore.

Curry even tipped his cap to Irving, suggesting, “They’re gonna come get us,” an ode to the social media firestorm that followed Irving’s revelation and ultimately resulted in an apology from the star.

What did Stephen Curry say about the moon landing?

Following a conversation about marijuana-inspired memes and the question of how filmmakers could possibly know what dinosaurs sound like, Curry asked around the 47-minute mark of the podcast: “We ever been to the moon?” When everyone in the room responded in the negative, Curry agreed: “I don’t think so, either.” Cohost Annie Finberg asked if Curry was being serious, and Curry confirmed he was.

Lord God, what specious reasoning in your post. And 5th grade name-calling just further degrades your specious arguments. (Do you even know what a “schmuck” is in Yiddish?)

Let's get things clear. There were no communications satellites circa 1970 as we have now, so I'm glad you didn't try to insert that into NASA’s “lunar logistics”.

The problem is the Apollo 17 footage of a fake toy held up by tension wires in a studio footage that was pawned off on the American people at a time before the internet and consumer video recording devices such as Betamax/VSH tape standards.

Take another look at this Apollo 17 footage. BTW, how did the astronauts’ audio “voice over” get mixed over this footage? What were the logistics for that? LOL!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQfauGJaTs

In fact, the advent of VCRs, the consumer video recording machine was simultaneous with the death of NASA’s Apollo program...we never were to “return to the moon” once Americans were able to personally record TV programs. Coincidence? (LOL!)

There were no coaxial cable networks in the early 70’s. On a globe earth model, radio waves are restricted by the problem of line-of-sight transmission..

...so the “lunar (or lunatic) logistics” of exactly HOW NASA transmitted footage purportedly from the moon to the earth and back within 1.2 seconds to enable them to remote control the cameras on the Lunar Rover Dune Buggy...

... how the lunar footage wss transmitted is as newsworthy of a story now as it would have been then.

How “moon footage” was transmitted is still a big news story.

It's still a huge mystery as to how NASA, in Houston, could have remote-controlled the Apollo 17 lift off footage from the flimsy broadcasting equipment that was left on the moon, that needed to run off batteries.

Using circa 1970 technology.

And all done in 1.2 seconds.

And that's “round trip”... from moon to earth and back to the moon again. 238,000 miles times two.

Utilizing the flimsy “transceiver” dish that was strapped to the Lunar Rover (golf cart).

That's half a billion miles.

In 1.2 seconds, in order for the footage to be sent from the lunar rover's camera's TV uplink transmitters...

... to Australia where the footage is converted to broadcast standard...

... then the footage is (as you said) microwaved internationally to Houston (though your map didn't show international microwave towers) — or via AT&T's c. 1960’s era phonelines —

So the logistical starting point is:

1. The video transmitter on the Lunar Rover to...

2. The “tracking station” TV downlink receiver in Austrailia

3. Australia converts the image to broadcast standard

4 Australia sends the footage to Houston/NASA via old fashioned 1960’s era phone lines or mysterious microwave towers in the ocean...

5. NASA remote controls the lunar camera off this received footage..

6. NASA sends the remote signalling back to Australia along the same mysterious international phone lines or microwave towers

7. Australia takes the remote control signal for the Lunar analog color video camera strapped to the Lunar rover and Uplinks the video signal through their TV transmitter dish to go back to the "moon" 8. (is the Aussie 200 foot wide dish also a transmitter or only a receiving dish? LOL... it was torn down and raised in 1981)...

9. Video remote control signal for the mechanical motorized “xoom” arm and “tilt” mechanism on the analog camera is activated from the signal received from Australia via a flimsy “receiver” box behind the aluminum folding chairs strapped to the Lunar Rover?

And all of this happens in 1.2 seconds? LOL!!!????

This is idiotic. None of this makes any sense, using c 1970 technology, and especially c. 1970 battery technology for all of this video transmission Uplinking and video transmission Downlinking from Houston/Australia on the Lunar Rover.

And this is why NASA has been so ridiculed, even in the comments section on the Apollo 17 “moon footage”...

(Honestly, this looks like 35mm or 16mm film to me that has been repeatedly kinescoped in a loop. Someone needs to breakdown the footage, because analog color video cameras from 1970 did not capture the same sort of details as film.)

"Really? LOL... That STILL doesn't explain the 1.5 second remote control relay (across half a BILLION miles) to the toy “Apollo 17” fakery here:

238,000 x 2 is not a half billion miles, even in retard math.

While I cannot teach you to be a Christian who knows how Jesus requires us to be “as wise as serpents” simultaneous with being “as meek as doves”...

... I can bluntly remind you that what Jesus said is true.

All conservatives need to step up their game regarding the nature of evil in the world... and we need to “test” NASA...

“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world...

... By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already.”

And John here doesn't don't mean “political evil” John means actual, Satanic evil where men and women actually bow the knee to Satan.

Just as the enemies of God bowed the knee to Baal in the Old Testament, they continue to do so today.

To believe otherwise is not Christian, it is actually defying Christ.

You are quibbling about an errant 24,000 miles?

Then chalk it up the lag mileage required between the 1,000 MPH to the average 666 mph rotation of the earth and the 2288 mph speed of the moon's orbit around the earth?

There had to be some “catch up” mileage in the absolute dead vacuum of space, right?

Wow, and just think, we are arguing about some faked Apollo 17 footage here because it is impossible for NASA to have remote controlled the camera's that were left back on the “moon”...

How come NASA couldn't have pointed and tilted the video camera that was strapped to the Lunar Rover to take a real photo of the earth? (They've admitted none of their earth images from space are real. You know that don't you?)

Nope, all we get is some toy firecrackered up into a catwalk, probably at Pinewood...

APOLLO 17 FOOTAGE REMOTE CONTROLLED IN 1.5 SECONDS FROM HOUSTON (that's 476,000 miles roundtrip in 1.5 seconds... nearly HALF A BILLION miles! Wheeee!)

Dumbass, 500,000 miles is half a MILLION, NOT HALF A BILLION.

LOL!

Yeah, you got me!

I was wrong on the number being half a million rather than half a billion, in a round trip video transmission in the year of our Lord 1972, from the "moon" to Australia, then to Houston Texas, then back again to Australia and then the moon...

it's only half a million miles...

and still no one can explain it! LOL!

I think I was remembering that idiotic fake NASA "photo" of the "sun" (it was a faked painting by NASA's artists) that was like a billion miles away...! Or was it the faked Jupiter photos that miraculously didn't change in two years... (same NASA artist?)

LOL!

Still, no one can explain in plain English how in God's Firmament how supposedly some NASA worker "remote controlled" a zooming and tracking shot of the supposed "lift off" from the moon of Apollo 17 from the "moon's surface"...

APOLLO 17 LIFT-OFF FROM THE "MOON" WHILE NASA SAYS THEY REMOTE CONTROLLED THE ZOOM AND TRACKING SHOT ON THE CAMERA LEFT BEHIND FROM HOUSTON OVER A 500,000 MILE VIDEO AND AUDIO TRANSMISSION.... (lol)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQfauGJaTs

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL and LOL again!

Merry Christmas from God's "footstool" of the earth... and remember, those are just hanging lights in His heaven/Firmament!

Meanwhile, while no one can explain the Apollo 17 faked “lift off” from the “moon” because no one can explain how the circa 1972 audio and video transmission traveled from the “moon” to Australia to Houston and back to Australia and back uplinked again to the moon via some unheard of TV uplink receiver and battery powered camera on left behind on the moon in 1.5 seconds...

The battery technology just was NOT available at that time to do all of “video transmitting” in 1972 over half a million miles round trip.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQfauGJaTs

This video rebukes your thinking on these subjects, if you really believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, and was raised in the Flesh.

It seems like you don't want to believe evolution, or climate change, but you'll believe any other lie by atheist scientists and “science”

It means NASA has admitted they have never taken a photo of the earth from space. It’s all faked artwork.

Same with “Jupiter”.

How could clouds be identical on Jupiter in two different years?

Do some legwork on the Islam lubbers at Leftwing NASA.

You know, the actual Nazis under Hitler who began our modern day NASA?

No, it’s called forced perspective, or distortion created by a 2d image of a 3d object taken from different locations. The clouds are not identical. They just change very slightly over time, as would be expected of a “storm” having a duration of over 180 years. You’re an idiot.

My friend profoundly distrusts pronouncements by various governments.

I'm wondering what he thinks of the fact that there are plenty of non-government "pronouncements"? Among these are very reputable scientists (geologists and geochemists) whose integrity and dedication to scholarship and scientific truth is unimpeachable. Just do a search sometime of the various geologic science journals that publish data on lunar sample analyses. These are people who would know fake samples if anyone were to try to pass them off. But they aren't fake. They can't be faked. You cannot gin up an ersatz lunar breccia with the kind of isotopic ratios we see in those samples.

Exposure settings on the camera. The purpose of the photography was to document lunar surface activities, and the lunar surface was brightly illuminated even with the low sun angle at the time and location of the landings. So you set your exposure to allow for that brightness, and it isn’t sensitive enough to expose the stars in the lunar sky

He just doesn't look that far. He also distrusts various scientists. Much of his genius involved making up his own mind.

At 100, he is past worrying about it. It is just a small flaw I don't worry about when I talk to him.

Are you kidding? NASA admits it has NO real photographs of the earth from space, they fake them. It’s artwork. With photoshopped clouds.

Same with Jupiter. I’m dumbfounded at this defense of a Leftwing climate-changing loving, Islam loving org - NASA - on FR.

Spare me the personal abuse, instead explain the logistics of how circa 1970 battery technology could livestream a video transmission with clear audio from the "moon" to the earth and back via TV uplink transceivers on the Lunar dune buggy...and stream this via microwave links across the Pacific from Australia to Houston and back ... that would enable Houston to remote control the zoom lens on a camera on the "moon", live? What kind of enormous batteries would be needed?

Face it, this is complete b.s.

APOLLO 17 TOY MODULE FILMED IN A TV STUDIO WITH FAKED LIVE AUDIO, TOO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQfauGJaTs

You can't explain the footage on Apollo 17’s faked toy “lift off” from the “moon”...

You can't demonstrate the “curve” math of the earth... at all.

(Once you really understand how sharp of a curve the “curve” really is supposed to be, none of your airplane rides will be the same, believe me... and it will also explain why some airlines are floating the idea of closing off passengers’ windows and replacing them with video screens! LOL)

You can't explain why NASA has NO photos of the earth from space... it's all artwork.

Jupiter is just more artwork, buddy. This is no forced perspective of anything. You are pulling stuff out of your backside. It's another space painting and you've been fooled.

Since when do conservatives believe atheistic leftwing organizations like NASA and what they have to say about “science”?

NASA said all of their "earth images" are fake and NOT real photographs.

Didn't you know?

They also have a weird habit of writing the word "sex" in their photoshopped clouds?

This is ancient information... I thought all conservative Judeo-Christians were on to this by now!
