  1. Here is an additional image of interest located on the Aulis.com website.

    It shows a SINGLE FOOTPRINT atop a trail of other prints at a RIGHT ANGLE

    to the trail. This is a highly unlikely happenstance.

    Jack ;)

    Captain Jack continues to sail the good ship MISDIRECTION on its erratic course. You should look closer at the images you post, and where possible get a hi-res image. Using low-res images can lead to errors.

    If you ever want any help in locating and / or interpreting images, Jack, I am more than happy to assist you.

    Firstly, the image shown is a low-res B&W copy of AS11-40-5874. The next frame, AS11-40-5875, is very similar and was taken immediately after the first shot (MET 110 hrs 10 mins 33 sec).

    The hi-res colour version is available at

    http://history.nasa.gov/alsj/a11/as11-40-5875HR.jpg

    Now, I've cut a section of that hi-res photo out to paste here. If you look where I have indicated with the red arrows, you'll see other footprints made at right angles to the main prints.

    Again, no mystery, no anomolies, and as always - CHECK FOR YOURSELF!

  2. To me, that seems like a reasonable explaination.

    After all, if there were a second light source, why wasn't ALL of the areas indicated lit?

    If you look at the photo, the "additional" lighting is more likely being reflected by Armstrong's suit, etc.

    I'd have to take a closer look at it, but I did notice the "additional" lighting comes from about where Armstrong was standing. The other areas on the side are not lit.

  3. I'm afraid I'm a little late in this topic, but if anyone else wishes some input I'm more than happy to oblige.

    My brother did three tours of Vietnam with the Australian Army, so I have him as one reference source.

    I was about 10 when Australia withdrew it's troops from Vietnam, so I can't really add much from a personal perspective. I can, however, give some details of the events that took place in Australia which were related to Vietnam.

    If the original question still stands, I'd like to clarify if you would like to know what effect the televising of the conflict had on culture, politics, etc, or simply the reactions and events that took place because of the conflict (with no specific reference to the television impact).

  4. Aldrin's acouterments changed from one photo session to next.

    Jack :angry:

    This is getting tiresome, Jack.

    You seem to be deliberatly misintrepreting photos to support your own opinion.

    Let's look at this series.

    The black stripe on the right forearm is the watch & strap. The strap and / or watch are visible in all the photos where his right arm is visible.

    Photo 1 - Look just above his right hip. You'll see a tube running from the PLSS backpack around to the fron of the suit. Move horizontally across to the right to Aldrin's forearm. You can see the watch strap.

    Photo 2 - Look about 1/3 up the forearm. You can see a small dark object which is the watch face.

    Photo 3 - Strap clearly visible.

    Photo 4 - Right arm not visible.

    Photos 5 & 6 - Strap and / or watch face visible.

    The antenna? Visible in most, where it is not it's because of lighting.

    The boots are always the same; in some lighting conditions they appear to be white.

    Lighting - nothing sinister, nothing strange, just the effect of light, the lunar surface, white suits, apature and shutter settings of the camera.

    To familiarise yourself with what the Apollo astronauts wore on the lunar surface, have a look at:

    http://www.myspacemuseum.com/agallery.htm

    It has a range of excellent photos, diagrammes, and technical details about how the suits were developed, how they were worn, and what they did.

  5. Scoff if you wish...but NASA spent millions perfecting

    ways to make faked moon photos.

    Jack :)

    Using the detailed plaster models, they were even able

    to depict the lunar capsule above the "moon terrain".

    Jack ;)

    For the scientific types on the Education Forum:

    Here the fakesters made a major astronomy mistake

    in showing the "earth" over the plaster models...

    they made it the wrong scale, and also show TWO

    different LIGHTING PHASES...an impossibility for

    Apollo 11.

    Jack :angry:

    To start, could someone explain what "... the photo at top allegedly took the photo above" means?

    Next, trying to use tiny 'bumps' on the horizon as you have is no system for reference points. Any of those dips & rises look like all the other dips & rises.

    Finally, are these photos meant to be consecutive photos on the same mission? If so, could you please post the NASA photo catalogue numbers?

  6. A high tech spacecraft worthy of Star Wars!

    How did such a flimsy LEM make it to the moon, held

    together with Scotch tape?

    Jack B)

    Jack,

    Have you actually looked at the design specifications for the LM, the environment it was meant to work in, the forces it was required to withstand?

    Did you read about the need to reduce the LM weight?

    The fact it was never designed to operated in anything more than a 1/6g, airless environment?

    Jack, please! A lot of your concerns are easily answered with a bit of research into the design, construction, and operatiing methods of these craft.

    I know people who can point to a Boeing 747 and say "nothing that heavy with wings that small can fly!" - but would you deny that they can fly, and do every day?

  7. For several years now rather than exclusively JFK studies, I have concentrated my efforts on two much larger and more important US govt conspiracies. In order to EDUCATE the many members of this forum, I will post in this category much of my previous work in these two areas.

    The first area is the massive propaganda program of the 60s and 70s to make the world believe that the US sent manned missions to the moon. Promised by JFK in his inauguration speech, the hoax was actually perpetrated by his two evil successors, Johnson and Nixon to stake out a claim of space superiority for the US during the Cold War.

    They called it NASA's APOLLO manned moon missions.  At a cost of billions of dollars, a sophisticated program simulated several missions, and offered as proof of success THOUSANDS OF FAKE PHOTOS SHOT IN A PHOTO STUDIO ON EARTH. I have done several hundred photo evaluations which prove this beyond any doubt. I will post many of these studies here for your edification.

    The second area is MUCH MORE IMPORTANT...the staged events of 9-11...another massive propaganda event perpetrated by the Bush administration to provide a NEW PEARL HARBOR...an excuse to go to war for control of middle east oil resources. I have studied this intensively for three years and will offer photographic proof that the OFFICIAL STORY IS NOT TRUE.

    On both issues, the real secrets are well hidden. But I will show you the available evidence and you can reach your own conclusions.

    As a starting point, I submit the following study. For several years NASA refused to comment on questions of whether the astronauts' bulky spacesuits would fit through the small egress door on the LEM. So in July of 2004, NASA released a NEW PHOTO allegedly from a sequence of Apollo 11 photos, showing a smaller Aldrin exiting the spacecraft easily. Comparison of the two frames from the same film sequence shows STRIKING UNEXPLAINABLE ANOMALIES. Study the two photos. You be the judge.

    Much more to come. I will attempt to answer any questions about this exhibit and others.

    Jack White B)

    Jack,

    Thank you, I will be the judge and ask other to follow your advice to also look at the photos and judge for themselves.

    I don't see any problems between the two photos.

    In one, the panel refered to is lit. In the next, it is not (because it is in shadow).

    What is the problem?

    In addition, the photo talks about many anomolies... I cannot find them. Could you please point them out?

    Finally, I challenge your remark about NASA refusing to talk about the small LM hatch door. It is mentioned in hundreds of documents. The original concept was for a round hatch (because it was also meant to be a docking hatch for the CSM). As weight considerations became more important, the hatch was changed to be square (because of complaints by the astronauts the hatch was too small) and because of LM structural considerations.

    All these facts are very well documented.

    I invite anyone who is interested to search the internet for these documents (use Google or your choice of search engines) and determine for themselves the design history of the LM (and other spacecraft components). Don't rely on just one site; look for several. Ensure you are reading a wide range of opinion about the subject. Look for the difference between opinion / speculation and actual technical detail.

    Use all these resources, then make up your own mind. Remember that things can be different on the moon; what happens here may NOT happen on the moon. Ask experts. Get a variety of opinions.

    Don't accept just one persons word on it. Not mine, not Jack's, not anyones. Research for yourself and make up your own mind.

  8. if my mind serves me correctly, werent aldrin and armstrong mere rookies and other more qualified astronauts were overlooked. Jack, in your opinion, how were aldrin and armstrong co-erced into going along with this, I dont think i could live a lie like that for the whole of my life. presumably they sent a craft up into space for show and then broadcast the faked images of them on the moon. are there any photos of the shuttle landing?

    john

    John, Excuse me if this has already been answered. I'm going through this (large) thread piece-by-piece.

    Aldrin & Armstrong were NOT rookies.

    Aldrin flew on Gemin 12, and Armstrong flew on Gemini 8.

    The man responsible for flight assignments was Deke Slayton (himself a member of the original Mercury 7). Flight assignments went by a rotation. Backup crew, miss two missions, then prime crew. These assignments were sometimes changed by necessity (as Mike Collins got reassigned to Apollo 11 because of a back injury).

    When you say "more qualified', exactly what do you mean? The most qualified were the original Mercury 7. Shepherd had Meneires Disease, and was grounded. Ditto for Slayton. Glenn had left NASA for a political career. Carpenter left NASA for underseas study. Cooper flew on Gemini 5 before leaving NASA. Schirra flew on Gemini 6 before commanding Apollo 7, and then retired. Grissom died in the Apollo 1 fire.

    The most qualified people were the "next nine" from the Gemini days, and they were put into a rotation.

    Finally, could I ask what you mean by "are there any photos of the shuttle landing?"?

    There are many images and videos available of the Shuttle landing, both from test flights and from orbital missions.

    If you refer to a lunar mission, then you are badly mistaken. The Shuttle was never designed to leave Earth orbit, and never did so.

  9. Here is another interesting comparison of two consecutive exposures

    from Apollo 11. Aldrin is carrying two pieces of the Seismic Experiment.

    Between exposures, as he takes a couple of steps, the equipment seems

    to undergo a considerable transformation. Also, the two pieces were

    to be carried like a dumbbell by a "carrying bar" connecting them.

    The bar is not seen, and Aldrin seems to be holding each piece awkwardly

    using some unseen "handle" on top.

    Jack B)

    Jack,

    I can see no disparity between the photographs. Handles are often recessed, so I don't see any problem that a handle is not in view.

    Could you please educate me further on where the actual disparity is?

    BTW, I am starting from the begining of posts. If this has already been addressed, I apologise.

  10. My name is Evan Burton and I live in Nowra, New South Wales, Australia. I'm a Defence contractor and previously an Officer in the Royal Australian Navy, having been involved in aviation for about 25 years.

    I'm a space buff, and have been interested in the various programmes since I was a child. I noticed some posts regarding the Apollo mission photographs in which I saw a lot of basic errors being made or misunderstanding of the systems involved, and wanted to be able to correct those. There are a number of other sub-forums which make interesting reading, and I may be able to give some small input to these.
