Photos of the landing sites from earth
« on: July 05, 2015, 11:35:43 AM »
So I was discussing with a HB about the landing sites photographed by LRO and he sent me these photos, he said they are from the landing sites stages here on earth where they faked the missions.





He said those photos were put by accident in the NASA archives.
I asked him for a link to the source and Im still waiting for it.

They dont look like what he said. I dont see the massive mountains and there is not a big enough vacuum chamber to simulate the space conditions. Also, he did not send me the source so It can be anything.

The second one looks like the bombing target shown on this page

http://www.airfields-freeman.com/CA/Airfields_CA_Mojave.htm

for Cuddeback Dry Lake Drop Zone (towards the bottom of the page).

Otherwise no matter how inventive I am with search terms I'm not finding anything.

Expect no source to be forthcoming, or a perfectly simple explanation for the one that does.

I've done a Google reverse image search, and Google cannot find those images.

Have you tried the bottom image as a negative?

Well, it is like this: The truth doesn't need insults. Insults are the refuge of a darkened mind, a mind that refuses to open and see. Foul language can't outcompete knowledge. And knowledge is the result of education. Education is the result of the wish to know more, not less.

No... I don't know how I'd convert it, sorry.

The second one is definetly a bombing target, just look how there are circles and a crux.

The thing is, why even bother?

The technical challenges to filming on Earth are insurmountable in practical terms, IMO, and more expensive and risky than actually going to the Moon.

Yes, I mean, If you actually were to film on earth, you will need to simulate the gravity of the moon in vacuum and I dont know of any vacuum chamber in existence that is as big as a stadium.

Those photos are probably military aerial reconnaissance photos, WWII vintage.. like this one of a test stand and surrounding birm at Peenemunde taken after the USAAF Eighth Air Force knock the crap out of it during three raids in July and August of 1944



At least this one had the advantage of there being craters!!!!

I did, it didn't help. The second one certainly looks like some of the air-ground targets I've seen in photos and films over the years. And there's the little problem that neither of these photos remotely resemble any of the Apollo landing sites. The hoax hoaxers really need to try harder.

No. 1 looks to me like an agricultural station

No.2 most resembles the photo by smartcooky in #10 above.

Here it is inverted FWIW.

Picture 2 could be an electron microscope shot of a sperm fertilising an ovum for all the detail it shows!
