I was just watching a video about the Kursk sub disaster. The Russians always seem hell bent on doing the very opposite when it comes to technology and safety standards and procedures common in the West. Apparently they used hydrogen peroxide as a propellant in their torpedoes which can be unstable and problematic as a fuel. The consensus about the disaster is that somehow an electrical spark or ground in the torpedo tube caused the initial explosion. A build up of toxic gases and other leaking fuel caused a more massive secondary explosion which doomed the crew. I remember that story. Those poor Russian kids were trapped in a rear compartment for days, slowly suffocating to death. In the Chernobyl nuke accident the Russians were using a graphite reactor, something considered too unstable and dangerous for use in the West. Stupid Russians ended up irradiating half the planet.

Unknown leftist-libtards trying to show 1969 Moon Landing was a fake on Hollywood set.

They already have this solid video confirmation of that fact...

What do shadows across uneven ground do? They follow the terrain. If see a shadow turn you know the ground it is on changed, going up or down from where it was.
People who didn't believe we landed on the moon would use non-parallel shadows of different objects as proof that there were multiple lighting sources rather than one shadow going slightly up or down hill.

If you can find that episode of Mythbusters (Episode #104) they had a mockup of the moon's surface duplicating the effects of that photo.

If they watched The Big Bang Theory theyd know about the reflectors we placed on the moon under the Apollo program....its how we know the moon is inching away from the earth.. That's an amazing fact I learned long ago, verified by the Apollo program. That the Moon long ago was very close to the Earth, and has slowly moved farther away over millions of years. The most amazing fact is that it is exactly the right distance to eclipse the Sun while viewed from Earth, and the right distance to support human life on Earth. Coincidence? Nope, God's work.

They’ll probably steal the flag and say I told you so. Maybe replace it with a Russian one. But leave their Rusky boot prints on the ground.

Its amazing that the media would treat a joking sarcastic statement as if it was a real news story.Like Trump asking the Russians if they had Hillary's missing e-mails?

Thanks. That is what I thought when I saw the date on it.

“I was just watching a video about the Kursk sub disaster...”
The Kursk went down in relatively shallow water (around 300’) by commercial diving standards.
The Russians had to seek professional diving assistance from a Norwegian diving company, Seaway who had divers in saturation that were working in the North Sea aboard one of Seaway’s vessels.

At 250,000 miles way. No, not possible. They visible from lunar orbiting telescope platform, like the Japanese probes for example.

I've never seen any credible documentation that indicates that the Apollo missions were impossible. Only uneducated buffoons make such claims. I do have four DVDs full of Apollo engineering documents and after mission reports. There is nothing whatsoever preventing sending a ship with three men in it merely 250,000 miles away and then landing.
I can tell you where to get the NASA documentation if you'd like to try to disprove any of it.

No, that is not possible.

The mechanism is acretive action The mechanism is gravity. Sir Isaac Newton developed a complete theory of motion, mechanics, that described the Earth-Moon binary system of mutual gravitational attraction. Because of the Moon tugging on the Earth's oceans, some of the Earth's angular momentum is transferred to the binary system's rotation and this causes the distance between them to increase. The Moon is gradually receding from Earth and is calculated that it would continue for about 50 billion years except for the Sun's radiation evaporating off the Earth's oceans in a couple billion years. Nothing for us to worry about for a while.
