Why wasn't the film used to photograph the moon landing destroyed by the solar radiation? The moon is not protected from the solar radiation like Earth because it lacks an atmosphere and a magnetic field of its own.

During the Chernobyl accident, when reporters tried to photograph the site of the Lenin NPP their film would rapidly turn black due to the high amounts of radiation.

>>9638318
Stars are incredibly dim compared to sunlight, even reflected sunlight. And the moon photos all had their exposures set to resolve the white astronaut EVA suits. If the exposure was extended to pick up stars, then details such as the astronaut and the surface of the moon would be washed out and nearly impossible to detect. But at least we would be able to see the stars we can already see from Earth, right?

>> No.9638385

>>9638318
Stars are really dim, if they had set their camera exposure to capture the stars everything else would be a washed out white blob.

There's also little point in taking photos of the stars from Earth/Lunar space with a handheld camera. It would be a waste of film when you could take pictures of the earth/moon/spacecraft instead.

What's better is that you can also step through the programming here:

I'm currently working my way through the program using the Apollo guidance computer book.

The different programs and how they break down is actually rather fascinating to research and step through yourself.
Admittedly, the program does have problems with certain programs. Especially if you follow checklist procedures. Doing so clears out saved IMU data and so on, which results in the program failing to run.

The film was taken by a 16mm camera.
https://transcription.si.edu/view/7925/NASM-A11Arev_Page_1
Non battery operated. Plus one which had a direct ac connection to power outlets in the command module via the communications umbilical.
The lunar lander had to have weight reductions but the cameras used did not due to it being part of the stowage lists. Further, Grumman decided to go with that specific layout as part of an overall "Lightest and cheapest" plan. The cameras were insignificant as compared to thermal shielding of the lunar landers descent stage.

It should be noted that there are one or two shots in which a bright star or planet show up. But only the very brightest.

>>9638678
The 16mm film you see of the Lunar lander deploying the landing gears was not broadcast in real time. The film from the landing itself also was not broadcast. It wasn't until the initial EVA that they got slow scan video, and even then the image was poor by comparison of what could have been done.
Further, you can derive the speed that the craft were moving if you first figure out how long it took them to orbit the moon.
T=2π3(1.06r)34πGρr3−−−−−−−−√
T≈3.35Gρ−−−√
So low orbits around rocky bodies will be on the order of two hours, regardless of the size.

For Earth, ρ=5.51g/cm3, which gives a period of 92 minutes. For the Moon with ρ=3.34g/cm3, the period is 118 minutes. Mars' ρ=3.93g/cm3, giving 109 minutes. Tiny Ceres at ρ=2.08g/cm3 gives 150 minutes.

So, with that in mind, all you have to do is plug in the known radius of the moon, and then divide from there. In the video, if you take 5 seconds of footage, you can figure out too how fast they were moving.

Either way, you thus find that They were moving at about 23.9 miles a minute. or, for every second of footage, you are seeing a velocity of .399 miles a second.
Thus, when you say that the footage looks wrong, then you need to specify, if you mean it's moving too fast, well they were going 23.9 miles a minute or 1439.3 miles an hour at an altitude of 50,000 feet.

Well you aren't wrong. Though I imagine pic related.
The film was kept in metal containers that stopped radiation from fogging the film's emulsion. Furthermore, film carried by unmanned lunar probes such as the Lunar Orbiter and Luna 3 (which used on-board film development processes) was not fogged.
What you need to understand is how film reacts to radiation. That is to say, not terribly.
If it did, then we wouldn't have a single Nuclear explosion video since the areas where most of those cameras were faced significantly higher amounts of radiation than would be experienced on a journey from the earth to the moon.

It wasn't night, the surface of the moon was lit, and it was said to be a tremendously bright daylight.

Ah so you've essentially returned to your original claim. That it was fake.
So let's recap:
Video footage taken on the moon then wasn't faked, as your claim was put to the wringer.
The footage from that 16mm video wasn't fake as the speed they were moving (18.23 miles a minute) combined with the height (50,000 feet) produce those same effects, and you've failed to substantiate how a moon landing is not the best explanation.
Examples such as nuclear explosions and footage of the elephants foot also demonstrates the problems with the space radiation claim.

Here's another example.
Let's break it down dummy style:
Mass exists within tank. It gets sped up and pushed into reaction chamber. The gas (Let's go with a simple one, hydrogen and oxygen) React and combine to form water. In the process heat is produced as well, causing the gas to expand, it's pushed out the back, force goes out the back, as a result a force is applied on the rocket pushing it forward.

It began producing thrust the instant that the reaction began.
Further, think about what you just said.
It only produced thrust when the expelled exhaust, no longer connected to the rocket, touched the side.
That would only make sense if the rocket were directly against the side of the tube. As you can see in that video, it's literally impossible for the gas to push back from the wall and onto the rocket since it would have been blown backwards by all the exhaust gasses being expelled out the back.

How are you this astoundingly bad at research? The Apollo astronauts trained by carrying out less ambitious missions (such as Gemini), and in simulations.
How would putting a vehicle in a vacuum chamber even help with training? The chamber would be far too small to travel at speeds where air resistance would matter, and due to gravity you still couldn't replicate the actual behaviour of a spacecraft in freefall.

The gas must also be pushing off something external to itself in order for it to push on the rocket with an equal and opposite reaction. You cannot isolate these forces to just the rocket and gas, they require something external to themselves (atmosphere, wall of a chamber) to produce thrust.

That's 52 years! And it's on Earth! Why haven't we been down to the bottom of the Mariana Trench more?

There's good reasons why we haven't been out of LEO since Apollo. It's expensive. For a long time the public didn't really back such an expensive program. We have been doing a lot in LEO with space stations and satellites. Our probe technology has improved so that we can send probes to planets we couldn't hope to send people to visit in reasonable time frames. The Saturn V was designed especially for the capability of Moon landing and that capability was not needed for LEO so much smaller rockets were designed since then. The tech in the Saturn V is so old it isn't a simple case of just building it again to go to the Moon again, it would be an entirely new vehicle which means development time and costs.

During the space race pretty much all of NASA's funding was going into that program, leading to the Moon. Now, adjusted, NASA's budget is much smaller than it was then and they have a lot of other programs. Going to the Moon is not really something they can budget to do within one presidency.

That brings up the unfortunate political side of things.
Each president since Reagan has had his own idea of what the manned space program should do. So every 4 to 8 years, NASA abandons one mission to do another, redeveloping and researching tools and techniques to accomplish that new goal. So it essentially winds up spinning its wheels all day while accomplishing nothing.

I actually love the way the flames start where they do, well below the engine bell.
If I remember correctly it has something to do with the mixture they were burning, it was fuel rich, I think, so some of what was being expelled from the bell hadn't burned so it ignited below the bell.

Seriously, being a moronic science denier should be ILLEGAL.

LOOK AT PIC RELATED. THEY SENT A ROVER ON MARS. IT'S ORANGE. What more damn proof do you need?

I've seen complete brain dead idiots asking what took that photo because the camera doesn't "look like" it's being held by the rover. I mean who fucking cares what it "looks like"!? It's probably just a glitch in the 50 million mile transmission, just enjoy the beauty of Mars and don't focus on silly little details like that. THANKS.

It's a composite image. They took several images at slightly different angles and stitched them together. They had to do it that way or the rover arm would be obscuring half the shot.

If you can tell me how it relates.

I bring up the Mariana Trench because people first descended it in 1960 and then there were no other attempts until 2012. 52 years unexplored by people while being on our planet. The argument that because people haven't left LEO in 50+ years means we didn't go to the Moon doesn't hold up when you consider that.
It's not proof that people did go to the Moon, but that argument is flawed.
