How do Apollogists (may I please use this term?) reconcile the footage of Apollo 12's Lunar Rendezvous where the Dish mysteriously cuts loose and seems to fall with gravity.
You're supposed to be a physicist (gish gallup!) what is wrong with it exactly?
I cannot seem to find this anywhere on the NASA site.
It's from the DAC 16mm footage, the clue being it was filmed in space.
I haven't verified the details yet, but have heard that they used to have this video on their site, but scrubbed it (removed it) after some MLH guys pointed it out.
A pathetic statement where you parrot a claim without verification.
Very simply, the dish breaks loose from the force of an RCS thruster. Once the dish breaks from its connector, it sways about for around 2 seconds then it becomes perfectly still. The LM continues to move, rotates a full 90 degrees and the dish stays still. This actually demonstrates how it must be in space.
None of this DAC footage was broadcast on live television. The 16mm DAC camera was used and the film developed back on Earth.
There is just no way NASA would not have watched it through. During the event, it was discussed on the audio recording. They must have known about it.
So basically NASA decides to script a malfunction of the dish, discuss it on audio, then create the scenario to film this incident, and this, according to the crazy claim, when it "shows evidence of gravity"?
It takes a real moron to conjure that one up.
Just a small thing. The DAC footage has the view inverted by 180 degrees, so there appears to be some deception inverting it as though it is "hanging off".
End of thread.
