Satellites, the laugh of a lifetime.
I am on the phone and can't reply proper, if this nonsense still is active by the time I am on computer I will rip right into it.

It's all to play to the people. Shaking funds out of social projects takes political will that most of the lobbyist bought puppets don't have so in order to change the flow of the money from being diverted to their assigned agenda (Big Pharma, Insurance...) the people have to give something up and to sell that the people have to have a dream. People don't care about probes or rovers, they want to high five each other when a man steps foot on Mars.



Correct, the word is not universal and can be used or misconstrued. When I grew up it was used to rally people to get off their buts and not be fags (as in pansies, afraid to stand up for themselves). I enjoyed that episode. I also can be called a fag in the context of that episode. the irony.


Something that sets me apart from the average arm chair general is that I get off my ass and put my own neck on the line when I see injustice, but I won't do it when I don't think those reaping the benefits of my efforts are worth that effort. I've had the heavy hand of the state depressed on my neck for standing up for whats right and its a thankless job. It really is easier to watch the sheeple become shackled.


In this day and age you would think that was a given.


At what point do you stop holding the past against an entire people? Is forever your answer?


Why didn't they use crayons? What about grease pencils which I think is type of crayon?

I believe. As a ham radio operator, I have personally transmitted a signal (with my own equipment), and had it relayed back from a satellite. I communicated with another ham doing the same things.Nobody else faked that.

God I try not to bite to this ridiculous shit. I worked for both NASA and ESA been to lots of bases seen lots of satellites.

How do you think GPS works? or is that also pretend?

Just stupid idiots, and I lost because I replied.

Because people today are cowards.

Lol, NASA themselves have said the 'lost' the technology to go back, go figure. Any mobile phone has more computing power than available in the 60. Go ahaid and transmit data over that distance and tell me how much power it takes. Go ahaid and to some research of how much a radio station users, and the reach is?

Someone is up there

at 30 sec ..."We should go boldly where man has not gone before"..

I love conspiracy

Always some truth in a conspiracy theory.

I'm at the Isle of Man TT. Here they wrap the poles in padding to protect them from the riders, not vice versa.

Yesterday I saw a flag pole wrapped in lagging to make it "safer" its the state of the world. Health and safety going mad.

It didn't even sound that bad typed, so look!



Its just so sad, those poor scouts might get hurt. Shit when I was back in the day we all had knives and axes and made fires.

90% or more of launches these days are for ruthlessly commercial reasons.

and the next people to make the effort will be doing it for ascendant prestige which means china, not the tired old west. it might even be a private operation.

and that whole era was a freaky anomaly. there's no appetite to push the limits any more. these days it takes airliners longer to fly many places than it did back then. the world's fastest plane designs like the sr-71 and x-15 are over 60 years old now.

We launch all the time with no problem these days, If all that stuff that came after the launches is so easy, why do we never just throw in the 10% more effort on any one of the modern launches and go back some time? I'm not arguing the moon landing was a hoax here. Just pointing out the obvious followup question to what you said.

  Ha!  So like point and shoot.  Sounds pretty simple.

Both countries experimented with robot landings quite enough, even had robotic sample rerurn missions.

there's little to no gravity, plus you only have to put a few tons down versus lifting several thousand of high explosive but let's not get too technical.

 Yeah but landing in one piece...

It's funny, they're skeptical about landings, but not launches. Launches are the hardest, most expensive part, not landings.

Quoted from above article:

"Both U.S. astronauts and Soviet cosmonauts initially used pencils on space flights, but those writing instruments were not ideal: pencil tips can flake and break off, and having such objects floating around space capsules in near-zero gravity posed a potential harm to astronauts and equipment. (As well, after the fatal Apollo 1 fire in 1967, NASA was anxious to avoid having astronauts carry flammable objects such as pencils onboard with them.)

When the solution of providing astronauts with a ballpoint pen that would work under weightless conditions and extreme temperatures came about, though, it wasn’t because NASA had thrown hundreds of thousands of dollars (inflated to $12 billion in the latest iterations of this tale) in research and development money at the problem. The “space pen” that has since become famous through its use by astronauts was developed independently by Paul C. Fisher of the Fisher Pen Co., who spent his own money on the project and, once he perfected his AG-7 “Anti-Gravity” Space Pen, offered it to NASA. After that agency tested and approved the pen’s suitability for use in space flights, they purchased a number of the instruments from Fisher for a modest price [$2.95 each]."

No no. Conspiracies are not true or false. They exist or they don't exist.

Conspiracy theories can be true or false.

And of course, Hairy is full of shit as usual.

valid to a point, but pencil points dont last long (we use em in medical a lot and we always need to sharpen them, one page of writing and its more or less useless) and if you break the tip, what then. send up 100s?

but i do see your point. not sure if theres more to it than i know.
