Watching the detectives...

Jarrrah has tried to clear up the confusion over flag crater, and he claims it wasn't named as such until a year after the mission.

This is despite it being specifically mentioned in the mission transcripts and being labeled as such in the cuff check lists.

Oops.

Who is Marcus Allen?

A quick Google turned up a number of candidates, but I don't think any of them are the person being referenced here.

Allen had been 'just asking questions' about the Apollo missions for decades, and despite having received perfectly correct and easy to discover answers to those questions, would continue to ask them to whichever paying audience turned up.

He famously recanted his views in front of an educated and informed audience, only to revert to rype when they were out of earshot.

And to return to their confusion over flag crater, they want to know why the location of the flag itself isn't given in the document.

It is, page 22.

Jarrah is unhappy with my comment above.

I'm gutted.

His point was that the name 'Flag crater' wasn't formally adopted as such by the people who formally adopt things until 1973. It says so in wikipedia.

I don't care.

The point the ADs made was that flag crater wasn't referenced in a document, when it was, many times. It was informally known as flag before and during the mission.

And Jarrah, if you have accusations to make about members of this site, bring them here. Don't hide in your echo chamber.

Yeah nah - I wouldn't be expecting that anytime soon.

Editor of Nexus magazine, for alternate descriptions of happenings.  One of the maybe "original" HBs.

Isn't he banned, and no I didn't look, JAQ.

Referring to the Blunder and other misinformed HBs, what will they say concerning radiation received during 10 days in space during Artemus II, or 2, and whether the crew was fried in the VARBs.  Silly me obviously to them the crew never left LEO, akin to Apollo.

Mr R. (Rasa) is making the claim that the astronauts will come back riddled with "cancers", but it's ok because NASA have super secret techniques and such for removing all the tumors they will have. You'd think someone who claims to have studied medicine would at least know how cancers/tumors form, and the time frames involved.
