Cranks are frustrating.
When I read about that incident, I mentioned it to my ex roommate. I said something like, "Way to go, Buzz! Right? I mean what kind of fucking idiot would believe the moon landing was fake?! You'd have to be a complete fucking imbecile!"
To which my roommate was silent for a long moment and then said, "Well I don't know. There's an awful lot of compelling evidence."
To which I replied, "Yeah, which can be easily disproved upon examination. A whole lot of nothing...is still nothing."
To which he was not impressed.
To which I came to realize, which I had suspected for some time, that my ex roommate was a fucking retard.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

Yeah. Looks like you'll have to do it again to prove you went? :funny:

It's plainly obvious that we never went to the Moon. No green cheese was ever brought back.

A few days in the weakest parts would be lethal but a few hours would give about the same exposure as a standard medical X-ray.

Yes, everybody knows that...well, except the conspiracy theorists...

...I am suspicious of that waving flag, though....and there aren't any stars in the background of the moon photos....and shadows go in two different directions...and there is a letter "C" on the side of a rock that is plainly a labeling system used on Hollywood movie sets....

Errrmmmm, "van Allen," Van Halen is a misspelled rock band. And they call it the "exosphere" and "magnetosphere" in new-fangled, i.e. post-1970, literature, because they're not "belts." And just about all the stuff in it can be stopped with a half-inch of foam insulation.

Just sayin'.

Looks weightless to me. There is a wire along the top of the flag, and the pole to the one side. That allows the free corner to move a bit, based on Newtonian physics and the forces being placed upon it by the movement of the astronauts moving the pole. That's exactly what one would expect a flag to do in a weightless environment.

2.37 to 2.45 Astronaut wade's past the flag and it wafts in a pure vacuum. Amateurs. :fp:

Yes, we all know that it's Van Allen, and not Van Halen, and that people could fly spacecraft through them....
