Why are there no stars?

They say something about the camera not picking up the light, but that just.. doesn't sound right. I'm not a conspiracist or anything, but something in me just doesn't feel right about some of the pics they have.

I mean, if you look out into the night sky on Earth, you can barely make out the stars in the sky, usually because of how dense and polluted our atmosphere is, right?

So what's the excuse here? Our moon doesn't have an atmosphere.. so shouldn't stars be visible as all fuck?

Just think about thousands of years ago, when people used to watch the stars and map them and tell stories from them, etc.. They could see them more clear than anyone today can, so..

What the fuck?

That picture was not taken at night.

The camera is adjusted for the WICKED BRIGHT light of the sun and white lunar soil.

The pic is "earthrise"

>> No.3922465

It's because of our atmosphere combined with how our eyes filter light.

Just google "Why can't you see stars in space" and read for 5 minutes. God damn.

OP just look up WhiteJarrah on youtube, young aussie kid whose been debunking most of the 'evidence' NASA provides, he's even been called out before by Myth Busters when they did their special on the moon landing, and he responded to them with a video debunking their faked experiments on the show.

I'm referring to the photos where they appear lit up because of the reflective property of the moon, they were using powder which was way more reflective than what the moon actually is

It doesn't sound right to you because you have only a passing familiarity with photography.

Not while sunlight and the reflective surface of the moon are overpowering them.

The regolith is between 0.07 and 0.1, Myth Busters used Portland Cement and Charcoal powder, but if you watch the video, it'll source the actual reflective properties

Gray Portland cement concrete
0.35 - 0.40 (new)
0.20 - 0.30 (weathered)

White Portland cement concrete
0.70 - 0.80 (new)
0.40 - 0.60 (weathered)

WhiteJarrah does the test himself, on an asphalt road in the middle of a deserted area..

Laser reflectors, visible remnants on the moon through some high-definition telescopes, momentum made the flag whip about, Van Allen belt easily felt with by passing through quickly with some shielding, a conspiracy that large would be impossible for a government as stupid as ours to keep covered up,

To add, in the video, they point out that they never even show what the reflective properties are, but show the footage of Adam holding up a calculator which he just punched in the numbers 0.08..

28% do now.

At the time, they carefully tracked the launch and were disheartened about being beaten.

I will laugh my ass off when another country goes to the moon and shows off the remains of the missions and all you faggots are shown up for the deranged conspiracy theory fuckheads you really are. I bet that Aussie fuck would deny the landings if he was standing right in front of them.

You need long and/or high exposures in order to capture light as faint as starlight.

>I mean, if you look out into the night sky on Earth, you can barely make out the stars in the sky, usually because of how dense and polluted our atmosphere is, right?
No, because the surround lights of the city or town you live in override them, and make them harder to see. You need to go out someplace where it's completely dark to see all the starlight you can.

>> No.3923078

> Why are there no stars?

Day.

Sun's kind of bright.

>> No.3923176

Allow me to explain this in a simple analogy. You're being exposed to Light...and the light actually drowns out any other remaining light. It's like when a singer gets up on a stage and sings but they can't really see the audience that well because of the giant freaking lights and all those cameras flashing in their faces.
