The Moon


Did the United States land on the Moon? This was the subject of the discussion that my physics class had. At this time we are studying how to figure out what gravity each planet has and how much energy is needed to escape from it gravitational pull. When the subject finally comes we were talking about how much gravitational pull that earth had on the moon. People started to say that is why the astronauts needed land on the moon. They also bring up the point that the flag is waving when it is being planted. Some of the things that were brought up do help the theory that the United States didn’t land on the moon. One of them is that when the landing vehicle didn’t leave a blasting crater when it launched off the moon. They had pictures of it not having one. Do you see the problem that they have? You can’t have pictures of the vehicle when you not on the moon. Second of all, by the time you got up there again some space dust wave could cover the ground again. Next they say that as you look at the video of the astronauts on the moon that if you speed it up to 2x that it looks like they are running on the earth. I have seen it and it looks like they are running but they have a little bet more air when they push off the good. The Theorist also says that if you speed up the land rover that they had it looks like it is driving in sand. Of course it does, Neal Armstrong said that the ground was like powder. The next thing that they say is that it was all filmed in Area 51. The sand there is orange not gray so how is that possible. Did NASA paint the ground gray to film the whole thing? I can see why they would what to fake it, but do you really think that it is possible? There is a lot of other things that are used to try and prove this whole landing on the moon thing was fake. So if you what to not more about it look it up you self. Here is something for you to think about. Why would the astronauts say that they went to the moon, especially if one of them was an Armstrong?

I think I saw a documentary on the moon and how it "could" have been a set up. It was really interesting and I wouldn't discredit it all at once. Who knows? There was a lot of pressure for America to have the first man on the moon during that time, but I'll just leave it at that.
