Comment on Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – Scientific Evidence by LunarOrbit.

I’m not sure what point you are trying to make. You’ve just posted a bunch of quotes from a book that you’ve taken out of context.

I had to Google “MGTE” to figure out what book you are pulling the quotes from… I’m assuming it is “Moongate” by William L. Brian.

“The movie film of this event is even more revealing. As Bean carried the instrument package across the lunar surface, the bar bent up and down, strained by the heavy burden on each end. It was also apparent that the instrument package was quite heavy from Beans efforts and movements.”

Yeah, so what? There is gravity on the Moon, so why can’t something appear heavy? Maybe Bean wouldn’t have been able to carry it at all on Earth… so what’s your point?

“That the astronauts were able to maneuver around at all in the Bend, Oregon area with their gear on suggests that the gear weighed far less than 185 pounds. (The weight that we were all given.)”

The suits worn by the astronauts during training on Earth were not the same as the suits worn on the Moon. They were just designed to give the astronauts an idea of what it would be like. They lacked all of the heavy life support equipment that was unnecessary on Earth.

“When Apollo 14 astronauts were in view of the south flank of Cone Crater, Shephard went down on one knee to pick up a rock and required the aid of Mitchell to stand up. About 2/3 of the way to their destination, their heart rates were up to 120 beats per minute as they moved uphill.”

So what? Working hard on the Moon increases your heart rate. What is so unusual about that? During on of the first American spacewalks one astronaut, Gene Cernan, had an extremely high heart rate and there was concern that he was going to pass out or have a heart attack… and this was in zero-G. You don’t have to be in full Earth gravity to suffer from physical exertion.

“The author observed one of the Apollo 14 astronauts in a movie film of the mission. The astronaut was running in semislow-motion in an otherwise perfectly normal manner. The discrepancy arises when it I considered that the astronaut went no higher off the surface and went no farther with each step than he would have on Earth.”

That is just the author’s opinion, and I believe he’s even being intentionally deceptive. I’ve seen plenty of footage of the astronauts jumping higher or leaping further on the Moon. I’ve seen them do a lot of things that would be impossible on Earth.

“The Rover was supposedly designed for the Moons one-sixth gravity, but close examination indicates that it resembled a vehicle more suitable for near-Earth gravity.”

This is why you can’t quote a book out of context. Is he talking about the actual lunar rover, or the training vehicle used on Earth?

“…a minimum-size vehicle (for use on the Moon) would need a wheelbase of 20 feet to give it speed capability over rough terrain…To keep the center of gravity to within 6 feet of the surface, it would need a tread width of 20 feet”

LOL. Why would it need a wheel base of 20 feet? They weren’t worried about speed… the rovers only had a top speed of 8 mph.

And a tread width of 20 feet! Ha ha ha! Normal tires have tread widths measured in millimeters or inches, not feet. The author of that book is a moron.

Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – Scientific Evidence

For me it is that easy to say that the moon landings never happened.

Then you’re a gullible fool who hasn’t bothered to learn anything about Apollo.

And in a sense they never did because I wasn’t born yet when they occurred.

I did not verify any of the “facts” stated here

Maybe you should. You’d look less like a fool if you didn’t constantly cite unverified claims.

That is why no one takes you HBs seriously. You can’t get your stories straight. We see HBs saying robotic probes put the laser reflectors on the Moon… and then other HBs who say the lasers were simply reflected off …

You can reflect a laser off the moon’s surface.
No reflector required.

True, but a lot more of the laser’s light is reflected when a reflector is used. The reflectors reflect all light back in the direction it came from. Light reflected …
