As I’ve noted, NASA says that video from the moon was fed to a Deep Space module, where the huge recording machine with 1” tape was rolling. On batteries.

The camera outside the Lunar Module was color.

Check the colored sparks or fireworks going off on Apollo 17’s comical “lift off” from the moon.

Color camera. Go-cart rover. Transmitting a live video feed.... on a camera that was normally made to plug into a power source, not battery operated.

Where were the refrigerator-sized batteries for all this equipment?

And again, as in the Apollo 17 footage, there was no way there was a remote controlled relay to earth in 1.5 seconds to get a zoom and tilt shot of the LM lift off... no way possible.

Oh and someone on this thread said that the lunar module was lost in this Apollo 17 footage... nope... someone zoomed out, tilted the camera up and stayed with the thing, whatever it was, as it then dropped back down to (earth).

Just no way this could have been successfully remote controlled from earth. The zoom and tilt are “live”

Could you provide a link from NASA to verify that?

Is this image that you posted at #121 actually Neil Armstrong? Or is it Buzz Aldrin?

Where in the heck does NASA say that??

This is from the NASA (NAZI!!!!) Website

"The signal originated on the Moon, traveled through the emptiness of space back to Earth, and was received by tracking stations on the ground in Goldstone, California; Parkes, Australia; and Honeysuckle Creek, Australia. These three tracking stations recorded the original signal that included the television video, as well as voice, telemetry, and biomedical data. The data was recorded onto magnetic tapes, and simultaneously converted into a U.S. broadcast format for transmission to Houston and final release to U.S. television networks. The equipment used to convert the signal unfortunately caused some unavoidable loss of image quality."

OH and by the way the article I took this from is about the "lost" tapes which you seem to make a big deal of. NASA doesn't consider them "lost"...and they have 1st generation copies of the very few that are in storage somewhere.
