The Reality of Apollo / Anyone heard this story about the LLTV and a state trooper?
« Last post by Peter B on December 28, 2025, 08:24:57 AM »Someone on YT (yeah, I know) is claiming this story about the LLRVs/LLTVs:
I checked it on Snopes and got no hits, and then on Google, and the AI response (yeah, I know) was that it's a bit of space lore.
So I was hoping the Brains Trust here might know something about the story?
Thank you in advance!
Cheers
Peter

The trainers also were the cause of a famous project blue book UFO incident, a State trooper spotted a landing withe astronauts getting out of the vehicle in space suits and reported it, NASA didn't want the location Astronauts were practicing revealed and had the report suppressed until after the moon missions were completed.

When I see them posted in groups I can comment in/participate in, I will point out that the Earth has been added.
Click-bait pages, like the ones Mr White has been raging about (whilst checking this forum for updates far more regularly than I originally expected, Oh, and no I'm not Tim, but I do know him in the real world), I just block/hide them from my feed, there's no point in commenting on those ones.

The Reality of Apollo / Re: Apollo sites photographed by lunar probes - my new page

I have a copy of "The Moon as Viewed by Lunar Orbiter" (nice big green book), which has the reference charts at the end. From looking a quick looks at the links provided, I should be able to find a spot in the book, grab the corresponding frame #, and find it through the links.
I have that, and also the full Lunar Orbiter Photographic Atlas version - it does come up on eBay from time to time, sometimes at sensible prices, sometimes not!

Virtual LM, from Scott P Sullivan. (with the CD)
Saw this one, and the Virtual Apollo, and since this one was the cheapest to grab, I grabbed it. Looks good, so I'm going to have to go and grab Virtual Apollo now

« Last post by TimberWolfAu on December 27, 2025, 03:36:38 AM »Heh, social experiment completed. It took less then 12 hours for our dear Mr White to cry on the Facebook group that I was talking about him, and his crying at click-bait Facebook groups. I mean, these same groups go on about people who have seen UFO's/alien's or how "NASA confirms the existence of UFO's", hardly what I'd consider a reliable source for anything, regardless of the actual facts of them matter.
I'll admit, I was expecting a few days, not less than one day.

« Last post by onebigmonkey on December 26, 2025, 09:17:28 AM »Oooo, new updated page/s? I'll have to have a poke around.
I was planning on using something like this as evidence for a debate, against our favourite 'not-a-doctor', but he never responded, so I didn't go ahead an make anything. Maybe I'll just make up a nice presentation anyway, that I might use later. One part of it was to find a current image of the LO photo I have.
You can find the rescanned versions here
https://planetarydata.jpl.nasa.gov/img/data/lo/LO_1001/DATA/
but you'll need Photoshop (or similar) to load the file format.
Lower res versions can be downloaded here
