Stephen Curry is pretty sure the moon landing was faked, just in case you cared

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.

Oh, a flat earther... all your arguments are now invalid.

The reason he said we don’t have the technology now is because of digital electronics. They are very susceptible to radiation and we are still working out the shielding to protect them from the Van Allen belts. In the time of the moon missions everything was analog and didn’t need as much shielding. The shielding now must be perfect and we haven’t achieved that yet.

Nice quote mine though.

OK, I watched the first video and saw nothing out of the ordinary. A camera could have easily had a built in mechanical timer to start a sequence matching the expected moment of boost to then zoom out and pan up. Are you an engineer? Didn't think so.

The second link you provided is unwatchable. The foreign flat Earther narrating his tripe has an understanding far beyond reality.

Bottom line. It appears you reached a conclusion based on a false premise and are now grasping for fine details to support you lack of understanding. I suggest you check your premise. That's your only problem.

Curry has bounced his head off of the rim once too often.

Well, there goes the value of my Curry cards, down the crapper along with those of Colon Crapperhead (can’t give them away).

Curry is a nasty sort of leftist anyway. As they say in show biz, pal, “Break a Leg” (and an arm, and neck, and ankle).

They say break a leg so they can be a member of the cast.

Video cameras were mounted on the lunar rovers on the Apollo 15, 16 and 17 missions.

For the lift off, the camera was remotely controlled from Mission Control by a guy called Ed Fendell. On the Apollo 15 mission, the remote control failed to work. On the Apollo 16 mission, he got the timing wrong. He nailed it for Apollo 17.

“Before the astronauts got there, the Nazis built a moon base from which they hope to launch a future attack and take over the world”

And all this time I thought the Nazi built underground bases in Antarctica and flew UFO missions out of there... What was I thinkin’?

Oh no! Well, if Steph(anie) doesn’t believe it, it must mean that... He’s as big a dumbass as I’ve always believed him to be! Not only is he a dumbass, he’s such a dumbass that he doesn’t realize that saying something so stupid makes him look like a bigger dumbass.

Obviously doesn’t watch “The Big Bang Theory” or he’d know about the laser reflectors place on the moon - which not only prove our presence but give very detailed information about how the moon is inching away from us...gonna be an extra mile further away in 50K years or so,,,,

My grandmother, who would be 104 this year, told me 3 things while I was growing up (70’s-80’s) that I didn’t believe then, but I believe now.

1-Rock and Roll music is of the Devil.

2-People are going to be having sex on that TV before long.

3-We never went to the moon. It was faked.

I think she was right on all three. If we ever went to the moon, we would be able too see the glow from all of the Walmart’s there.

Research the Van Allen Belt. It will answer all 4 questions you posed.

1. The Empire Sate Building is in our earth’s atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt.
2. Planes flying at 35,000 feet are in our earth’s atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt.
3. Those satellites circling our planet are technically in our earth’s atmosphere. AKA within the Van Allen Belt.
4. The Moon is not in our atmosphere and well beyond the Van Allen Belt. During the space race of the ‘60’s no other country (Russia and China) sent any living thing (plant or animal) outside of the Van Allen Belt that didn’t come back x-rayed to death. But, we did. Our government would never lie to us either.

Well, the official video says it was a five to six second delay, but that seems improbable, too, because the video was apparently transmitted to a Deep Station module, not earth.

See, there were no small video cassettes at that time. There were no “camcorders” where the cassette fit in.. you had to have your own reel to reel video recorder of 1 inch tape or a huge recorder for 3/4” tape and these needed to be battery powered.

With analog video recording, you would need a HUGE battery, and I do not see the huge transmitting device that would also feed off this battery on the moon.

I once read somewhere that most of the blacks in the ghettos did not believe the moon landing.

Mr. GG2 a white man with a genius IQ also does not believe it. Don’t ask me to explain this because I’m not a genius but he’s really good at Science and mechanical theory. Anyway he tried to explain to me that there is a radiation belt somewhere out there between us and the Moon that nothing could live through. He said that’s why aliens if there are any will never come here and we will never go out into the galaxy. Personally I have no idea.

That glorious Earth over the moon’s horizon was almost impossible to fake.

Except that the earth would have been HUGE from the moon... where in the Apollo 11 images, it's the same size as the moon from the earth!

FRiend, you need to learn about photography before you expound on what you think is fake photographic evidence.

There is a foreshortening effect that changes with different camera aperture settings.

Perspective distortion (photography) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
