sipi Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Ok on a serious note. There were thousands of people involved in the lunar landings including people I have personally met. Smart people. I doubt all these people could be that easily fooled. We have all seen the footage of the astronauts in training. Running around with cardboard boxes on their backs getting jerked around by cables. Yes, these are training videos. They didn't just jump in a spaceship and go to the moon without practicing as best as they could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 only just died, and was the first American in space........never went to the moon but either way they all did a grand job risking their lives Later in the flight, telemetry indicated that the heat shield had become loose. If the telemetry was correct, Glenn's spacecraft would likely have been destroyed during re-entry due to the intense heat.[27] Flight controllers had Glenn modify his re-entry procedure by keeping his retrorocket pack on over the shield to help retain it during re-entry. Leaving the retrorocket pack on caused large chunks of flaming debris to fly past the window of the capsule during re-entry, although Glenn thought it could have also been the heat shield.Ok, nothing.Sent from my ROBBY using Thaivisa Connect mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogeroc Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) I doubt that hardly any Thais care a damn about the moon landing ! Anyone who doesn't at least question the very significant possibility that it was a hoax is in my opinion a bit of a dreamer!

stament Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 our family never makes a money tree although they do contribute. are we missing out on something? re the OP' comment about the moon, I too am very sceptical.

dbrenn Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 As children, we all learned that the moon is made of green cheese - much too soft for a spacecraft to land on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattayalover Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I belive it s a hoax because these men on the moon seem having fun. Just too much fun for my taste. If I was there, I would not jump around in case I fall on a rock and make a hole in my suit and probably die. Think about it. It s like standing on a floating pad surrounded by crocodiles. Would you jump up and down? Certainly not. The way they talk is totally unprofessional. These are not real astraunots but actors making fun of everybody. There is enough video on YouTube showing it was a hoax. Just send me there and we will see. It s all I ask for. Anyway soon Japan will take pic of the moon, who laugh the least laugh the best. Thailand don't believe it anymore since I post it, anyway, it s a lot of fun to talk about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toknarok Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 If there had been just the one manned moon landing I may have been somewhat sceptical. But to do it SIX times with 12 men walking on the moon, were they all fake? Of course they weren't, far too many people involved, the secret would have been out long ago. These expeditions were extremely costly not to say dangerous to human crew. Much easier to send soft unmanned landers. The data they sent and brought took (and is still taking) years to analyse. Space telescopes and space stations are now capable of gathering lunar data without actually landing on the surface. In any event the focus seems to have shifted to Mars and other objects in solar orbit recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcnx Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 If it comes up and they go on and on about it, I remind them that there are no Thai flags on the moon, nor will there ever be, so they don't need to worry about it. I may not know much, but I know Thainess will never infect space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't call anyone retarded, I called them stupid, which they are if they think it didn't happen. Having a questioning attitude can be very healthy but it can be taken too far to a point where it can become an obsession. The JFK assassination is another one, people just think nothing is true.
