“Unlike the sand in this footage that billowed and held up in the atmosphere”
Thanks for those, there are a few seconds near the start of both those clips, when the buggies are moving slow, which look identical to the faked Rover footage, plus you do realise those things were outdoors and not on an enclosed movie set, right?
“Stop it with the insults and attitude or you won't last long”
Noted.
“A tell - all book "I Worked on the Moon Hoax" with proof (secret photos, work orders, pay stubs) would make the author a lot of MONEY!”
You’ve been given a ton of money to stay quiet, where is your logic?
“As a matter of fact, cambo, why don't you write your proof of the moon hoax into a book and have a best seller? Don't you want to make a lot of MONEY!?”
What proof?
The Apollo 16 Lunar rover video looks perfect at 1.5x speed and as for the pendulum video, the film, from what I can make out looks like 1x speed. The quality is so bad, that I don’t see how you would see this as evidence, as there could be a mechanical device doing the work and we wouldn’t be any the wiser.
“Serious question - how much money would it take to buy your silence for the rest of your life? Think about it for more than a couple of minutes. A hundred bucks? A thousand? A million? A million a year?”
A couple of hundred grand would do me at my time of life, but for someone a lot younger, maybe five million.
“There were literally thousands of people involved with the Apollo program. How much would it cost to buy everyone's silence over the course of several decades? What's to stop people from demanding ever more money over time?”
Well let’s say there were a hundred people actually in on Apollo, which would be half a billion in English terms. And you don’t blackmail the government.
“Where does that money come from?”
NASA’s multibillion dollar budget of course. We are talking the American government here, if they want to hide something, it’s gone.
“How much money would the first person who could credibly expose the Apollo missions as a hoax make by comparison?”
What good is money if you are dead?
“And countless more who didn't work for NASA at the time of Apollo, but still have (or will have) the capability to expose the hoax.”
You know the answer to that one, but I’ll humour you. The people making the nuts and bolts weren’t present on the movie set.
“And this means that to continue to protect the hoax, new generations have to be made privy to the secret as older generations die off; so continues the possibility of exposure.”
By new generations, do you mean the sons, grandchildren and great grandchildren of the film crew and NASA’s top brass? Surely only the CIA would need to know, as they are probably running NASA, and I’m sure some of them will be trained in special effects. Let the original hoaxers go to their graves, which would just leave those crafty CIA agents. It wouldn’t surprise me if the president himself wasn’t aware.
“Or my little effort regarding pendulums”
To me it looks like there is a drought causing the bag to continue swinging, and the little maths lesson at the end doesn’t disprove this.
“Mind you, cambo probably counts gravity to be under the heading of 'NASA-science”
In a way it is, not because it’s fake science, but because it’s bad science. Take the dark matter theory, it’s possible they just got gravity wrong, and if that turns out to be the case, then Apollo and any other missions involving planetary orbits, sling shots and the likes, all go in the hoax bin.
“how is it that Mission Control and the astronauts are occasionally heard talking about events of that day such as live sports results? Plus, even if the conversation was recorded live over pre-recorded actions, how is it that sound and action synch so perfectly?”
Only the voices needed to be live, although instances of other sounds were few and far between, and lip-sync wasn’t a problem for obvious reasons.
“are you seriously going to tell me that this video of Dave Scott tripping over a rock, flailing arms and all, works at roughly double speed?”
So you think all the video would have to be played back at the same speed? This one is bang on at 1.5x speed.
“And as for the dusty sand, would you care to explain why the material on the ground looks and behaves like a cohesive powder - similar to flour or talcum powder?”
No it doesn’t, it looks like sand, you are only seeing what you want to see.
“And would you care to explain how you create dust-free sand, especially when this stage of yours is going to require hundreds of tons?”
I can’t, where did I say I could? But that’s irrelevant, as I already pointed out earlier in my post, that it can be simulated perfectly outdoors, thanks so much to whoever posted those priceless videos.
“They never believe me when I say this”
I wonder why?
