We (as in mankind) went there, observed that it is indeed a dead lump of rock and doesn't really warrant any further investigation seeing as it's humungously expensive to send a mission there. There's no point going back.

Correct Eb. NASA & ESA have lost a lot of funding in recent years, & places like Mars are more interesting for them to spend their money on.

thats the strap line

but im not buying that either because we havent even discovered what resorces are beneath terra ferma let alone what we could find beneath the moon

plus there have only been 9 missions to the moon and only 4 landings, so how could they possibly know whether or not it is worth exploring with technology that was very basic in 1972

The main incentive to go to the moon was compeition with the russians, the USA feared they would get there first and claim it. This had strategic implications for star wars, whoever controlle the moon could control earth with Moon base missiles.
However the USSR couldnt afford star wars, or to colonise the moon. In reality their economy was one third of USA, and even USA was struggling to keep up with expense of moon landing.

Also USA trying to save money had to cut corners which led toi the death of several astronauts, space travel became unpopular.

To save money they switched to Shuttles and unmanned space flights.
Shuttles were not suited for Moon Flights and proved not to be as cheap as they had hoped.

The moon is not a planet, its a lifeless asteroid, the ability to travel into deeper space was more exciting, but the long journey times would not suit humans, hence the switch to robots.
Meanwhile space stations became more efficient and had a better payload. Ironically the USA turned to the Russians to help keep space stations active.

One last irony is that China now has a moon landing programme. I suspet it would break their economy, unless they give up after a landing or two. It could of course get the yanks back in the race. Meanwhile I amoving this to off topic as no football played on moon

The cost for the Apollo series of missions ran into the billions of dollars even 40 years ago. In today's money it would be hundreds of billions.
What is the point of further exploring the moon? There aren't any natural resources like oil and gas and even if there were we would have no way of bringing them back to Earth. It's not like you could just build a pipeline to the moon.

If there's no atmosphere on the moon, how does the American flag move then?

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Padre Pio 16 February, 2012 09:48
You dont buy the money thing Jack? Why have they shut down the shuttle and are hitching lifts of Russians to spoace stations grapefruit?

On the flag:

The flag was attached to a Г-shaped rod so that it did not hang down. The flag only seemed to flutter when the astronauts were moving it into position. Without air drag, these movements caused the free corner of the flag to swing like a pendulum for some time. The flag was rippled because it had been folded during storage—the ripples could be mistaken for movement in a still photograph. Videotapes show that when the astronauts let go of the flagpole it vibrates briefly but then remains motionless.[80]
This theory was shown to be untrue on the MythBusters episode "NASA Moon Landing".

So now all is revealed. Over the course of several years billions of dollars were spent and men's lives were lost while two countries pretended to be racing to do something that each knew was actually physically impossible.

They successfully managed to not get called out on their bulls.hit by the Europeans/Chinese/anybody else with a space program but apparently they have now met their match in eduardo. The cat is now out the bag and he can reveal that "it's the radiation problem that's the problem"

Radiation is a fairly general term eduardo. Could you be a bit more specific as to what sort of radiation astronauts would face on the moon that has made it impossible to travel there?
And one further question - are high density plastic radiation shields also a myth?

There are tons of people who don't believe this folly mate and as far as billions being spend and lives lost in concepts that defrauded the masses

religion has done the same for centuries, hell the monarchy is one big ridiculous concept...wall street lied to make billions and lose billions...the US spend billions and thousands dead on a lie about weapons of mass destruction

I could go on and on where people have lied to masses for greater reasons but there is google

I mean common sense would tell you that if you wanted to make a suit that could be submerged under deep water for an extended time, you would have to test quite a number of times in that environment and that along the way there would be ups and downs..and thats on EARTH! you wouldn't have a televised perfect run in 1969!! Having NEVER EVER stepped foot on there before

acting like oh look..everything is exactly as we said it would be, I know we can't do this in earth, without many ups and downs, but the moon isn't earth...first time everything is perfect

but if that studio looks like the moon to you, then its your right to believe it so...for me I thought it was very obvious

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Zainy 17 February, 2012 17:17
Your arguement works both ways Ebor.
I dont care to believe it one way or the other as i dont have the energy to expend caring about the subject. It hasnt and wont impact greatly on my life.

Unless you personally witnessed something with sound mind and clear vision, facts are all about interpretation. People will always choose to believe what they want and 99% of the time it has little to do with stone cold facts. Our lives are too short for us not to take a lot of things on faith, and quite frankly, what a boring life one would lead if they chose not to believe everything until they had indisputable evidence of such a thing (which in the scientific world is still as rare as hens teeth)

Yes and people still believe in God, and much to the frustration of atheists - there is no way to disprove in a supreme beings existence. I myself dont believe in religion but i refuse to join the ridiculously pompous and arrogant band wagon that a large portion of atheists do in putting down peoples belief because it does not conform to their own. The same goes for religious zealots.

Tonnes of people voting for Hitler wasnt as stupid and surprising as you think if you actually knew anything about the history of that time.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
hippogunner 17 February, 2012 19:02
Yes Rockstaar it was a huge joke.

Explain why an earth there'd be all that trouble to pretend to go to the moon?

And if so how has this great calumny has not been revealed considering the amount of people involved?.

Do you think there were no preparations? That men went to the moon on a whim? What do you think physicists and scientists do?

Do you believe in aeroplanes? I expect you've been on a few or do you go by boat to America? Do you think anyone knew what it would be like thousands of feet above the ground? And yet man built aeroplanes.

Just because it's out of the realms of your narrow imagination doesn't mean it didn't happen.

And Zainy, I always thought you were an intelligent person. Are you joining the lunatic fringe here? Or do you think it was all a big hoax done for some unfathomable purpose?

Facts are not about interpretation. Yes history is written in many ways but the fact that say, for example, Marie Antoinette was guillotined happened, you didn't have to be there to know it happened.

The Earth is round or is that a lie too, made up by false pictures from outer space I suppose. You walk on the ground and it appears flat but our planet is actually a globe. Wow. How can that be?

I suggest you educate yourself about space travel Mr.Rocksforbrains before you peddle this nonsense.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Zainy 17 February, 2012 19:16
Hippo - as I stated, I dont have a strong opinion on the matter as I dont care enough. All I was saying is that for almost any arguement a certain measure of faith has to be given to each stance because there are painfully few certainties in life.

To use an extreme example
Is it a fact that Usain Bolt ran the hundred metres in 9.58 seconds?
We saw it thus it is true right? But again you place faith in the fact that the equipment used to time the event was working 100% correctly, was calibrated correctly and its fundamental design was accurate.

With regards to the moon landing, both sides of the arguement are placing faith with which 'facts' they believe in.

There is no need to label someone who doesnt share you perception on something in a derogatory manner.
Rational people believe strange things to both you and I.
Its a rational thought to believe the sun is extinguished before nightfall and reignited in the morning, because you can see the sun disappear at dusk and rise in the morning. Now this contradicts what is now common knowledge but if the person doesnt have that knowledge or doesnt believe the source of that knoweldge his assumption is still extremely rational.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
hippogunner 17 February, 2012 19:28
Ok Zainy I'm quite partial to examining facts like your Usain Bolt example. Nothing wrong with that argument.

But I'm sorry, if you have recourse to knowledge, as in the moon landings which includes film, and hundreds of people involved in the proceedings and probably many other things to prove the truth, I find it plain stupidity to argue against it.

As I said before to what purpose was this great hoax made?
And also as there are many people involved how has the truth as Rockstaar perceives it never come to light?

Re: can anybody intelligently answer

If pushed my answer is this: Im not sure the US government ever had the intelligence to pull of a mass deception like the moon landing or a roswell conspiracy.
Stranger things have happened though.
There are plenty of conspiracy theories abound in the world at any given moment. Are they all false? Possibly but not probable.
I dont have enough evidence either way to sway me strongly to one side on the moon landing business, but as I said, if pushed I would probably go for it being the real deal.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
hippogunner 17 February, 2012 20:01
As far as I'm concerned I don't think there's any doubt about it being real.

Why bother lying?

And seriously if you want to keep such a vast hoax quiet you'd have to start murdering all the participants.

Similar to a rather good 70's film called The Parallax View although that wasn't about fake moon expeditions.

yeah I believe in aeroplanes..but you keep on using examples that are EARTH driven...we LIVE on earth therefore can test conditions relentlessly until we get it right

If I don't understand arctic weather I can go there and see whats the difference in temperature and how it affects things compared to the mild breeze one feels in say the caribbean...even the first trip there more than likely involved death or mishaps

you are convinced that the VERY FIRST TIME a manned spaceship went to a place NO HUMAN has ever been before..the spacesuits, the ship, the video feed everything was simply perfect...oh dear

but for me its really simply common sense

I saw building 7 in NY go down without being touched by a plane or anything on Sept 11, yet millions believe it was a terrorist act whereas millions don't. Both saw it on the telly yet two different opinions

I mean common sense would tell you that if you wanted to make a suit that could be submerged under deep water for an extended time, you would have to test quite a number of times in that environment and that along the way there would be ups and downs..and thats on EARTH! you wouldn't have a televised perfect run in 1969!! Having NEVER EVER stepped foot on there before

In fairness to Rockstaar this makes sense. What they probably should have done is first send a man to space in low orbit then gradually build on that experience over the course of several years before eventually trying to put a man on the moon.

well this is really simple

you believe they went to the moon and it was televised in 1969 from the moon, I believe it was a studio

nothing else really to add, but endless back and forth really

no ed is right

if you belive something will happen you act in faith and when you act in faith your have no doubt

you need to exercise faith to believe and as a result you discover the realism of the truth in which you believe

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Rockstaar 18 February, 2012 01:54
ok GJ..but faith and belief isn't the same as 'knowing'...its simply faith and belief

Once something is proven you no longer need faith or belief

hope this clears this issue up

I would explain the word contradiction but I'm sure you know the meaning GJ but would rather disregard it when it applies to you

this is also a no win topic, you feel the need to believe in something that can't be proven and nothing I or anyone says will change that for you and really I don't want to

but on 'my' side, I understand that it can't really be proven or disproven I guess...I just choose to take the logical path

You might know God exists Jack, but where is your evidence?
Your Faith is not scientific evidence as it is purely a subjective feeling

The concept of a God means there will never be proof unless we all die suddenly and move on up so to speak. So an arguement of where is the proof is countered with where is your proof he/she doesnt exist - which is quite valid.
There is no knowing either way. You either have faith in your intuition there is no higher being, or you have faith in your belief there is.

Its difficult to accept much of what was written in any scripture but then again this is not proof that a higher power doesnt exist.

Its a no win arguement for anyone.

celine dion 18 February, 2012 11:46
weve been down this road before.

God exists, as a philosophical certainty, for as long as mankind themselves cannot answer the mystery of creation and existence.

In the same way that if you find a cake sitting on the kitchen table, someone must have put it there.

The rest of it, bibles, religions, etc, is a separate matter.

people tend to tie the two concepts in together, which is where it all starts to unravel.

Well not really, because one could then say who put God there and so on and so on

at some point something would ave to always have been there put there by no one...some will say God, but that argument could go on both sides of the coin

I totally agree that religion is a different discussion than the concept of God

well the most common philispophical explanation for god, is 'that bit which we cannot explain'.

so if you discovered the identity of gods creato, they would become god, not god. Its just basic empiricism. Common 18th century view. Works for me.

You will nowadays come across concepts which go more into the scientific - quantum physics and so on. But they're all too much for me basically.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Jack_is_the_truth 18 February, 2012 13:57
its not a contradiction rocky

the defination of faith in the bible is "the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen"

meaning God becomes personal and provable through faith hence and a result exercising faith in something you havent seen it will become as real to you as your hand.

for example if you have faith in what i am saying about jailbreaking your phone and setting the device free, and you actually do it based on your faith in my words you will know without a shadow of a doubt that your phone will become more usefull and important to you without stealing any paid apps

hence you will know i am right through your faith in me

if you choose not to have faith in God you cant experience him

@celine

I'm just saying if you believe in a creator then it logically would have to go on for infinity...meaning the creator would have to have had a creator and so forth

@GJ

You cannot change the FACT that once I have proven something then I no longer need faith...in your example I can prove what you've said to be true and once I've done that I no longer need faith in what you said concerning that issue

with the God concept you cannot prove it, so you have to endlessly believe and have faith, you also have to put faith in a book that was 'inspired' by GOD, not written by him

like I said, if we weren't talking about God and another topic, you could clearly see the contradiction in your reasoning

Rockstaar - I think the concept of God and religion are easily mutually exclusive.
Organised religion as a concept to me simply doesnt make much sense and I personally dont put too much faith in the written word of man on God as so much of it seems fallible. But the concept of a higher being is not so easily explained away.

Re: can anybody intelligently answer
Jack_is_the_truth 18 February, 2012 14:31
so when you put your key in the ignition to start you car in the morning do you have faith that it will start or do you just know because it has been proven to start the car in the past

I agree with this, I don't think its impossible for there to be a higher being

Quote:

your reasoning is still flawed GJ

I know for a FACT that this key CAN start the car, (so its proven that keys start cars) but I also KNOW that it isn't the sole reason for a car to start (by other proven facts)

You can't use an example that is proven, no one would have to have faith that a car key can start a car

A relationship with God is a personal thing, and god as proven to be true in my life on countless occasions, so i know for a fact that God is real withougt a shadow of a doubt

you dont have to know exactly how a car works in order to start it and drive itg were it need to go, you do that because you have faith in what people have told you about what a car is supposed to do and based on that info you`have exercised faith and found it to be true

you dont have to wait to see a blind man recieve his sight before you exercise faith in God

i guess the bible explains it best when it says

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

@celine even though i am very good looking have a body like a thor and am married to a very beautiful wife, i still wouldnt class myself as arrogant in the slightest

mate, you keep using examples that are proven facts..I think this is the 5th time Im posting the same thing, once you know it to be true you are no longer working on faith and belief

People suffering and dying from starvation pray to the same God that we do whilst throwing away tons and tons of food everyday...both have faith and belief, but two different outcomes

you can't PROVE there is a God, just like technically I can't PROVE there isn't one, so I really don't understand the length of this discussion...you are intelligent enough to KNOW that
