I Have a newspaper,that shows the Saturn 5 rocket before in was launched moon ward!!I suppose that most of the people that worked,or had anything to do with the moon project,are dead,or every old.What a shame to waste all that work!!!!The Saturn 5 rocket was a huge,365 feet tall,and a combine thrust of over 7.5million pounds of thrust. from its five engines.It was developed by the now,world famous scientest Werner Von Braun.(the man mostly responsiable for the development of the German V2 during WW2.)Just think,The UNITED StATES OF AMERICA,is the only nation so far,that has gone to the MOON!!!!

NASA was already a agency that was in partnership with many private concerns to accomplish a known mission, it could have easily become a part of private enterprise and continued to contribute to the space program and the industrial needs and inventions they produced.

Now we have a new scheme, we send our astronauts into space by use of russkie vehicles at a cost of $20 mil/person and have now let our military continue to develop new innovation for space mostly weaponry. We have lost a bunch on this deal in skill, development and innovation and unless we decide that space exploration has a pay off the USA has definately given away a huge advantage to others that may not have all the peaceful intention we built into our NASA program…

Are you sure,Bob, that the American government has givn up.I am not.

It IS possible that as a consequence of certain technological discoveries , not revealed to the public, that they have a SECRET space program for the “Elites”

THINK Area 51, Denver Airport, FEMA camps etc. etc.

Maybe they know something they DON’T want us to know…such as the coming COLLAPSE, economically, politically, earthly and the RAMIFICATIONS for human survival ???

They sure dont want to be here when the SHTF.

I am for innovation as much as the next guy.
But for things to go well in an enterprise,there has to be cost effectiveness.
Space….the final frontier.
But lets take a look at what we actually know,rather than what we are being told.
Try this on for size:
(from the slightly dazed and confused wikipedia)

Slightly smaller than Earth’s Moon, Europa is primarily made of silicate rock and probably has an iron core.
It has a tenuous atmosphere composed primarily of oxygen. Its surface is composed of ice and is one of the smoothest in the Solar System.
This surface is striated by cracks and streaks, while craters are relatively infrequent.
The apparent youth and smoothness of the surface have led to the hypothesis that a water ocean exists beneath it, which could conceivably serve as an abode for extraterrestrial life.
This hypothesis proposes that heat energy from tidal flexing causes the ocean to remain liquid and drives geological activity similar to plate tectonics.

I call male bovine fecal matter.
Why?
Because science wants to call what is found beneath the surface of a moon of jupiter,an ocean.
What characteristics do our own bodies of water which we call “oceans” posess?
For one,they rest on a revolving body.
For two,they exist in the”life beltway”which provides a perfect environment for life to occur.
For three,they have what is known as a tidal shift,meaning that the water moves to and fro.
This begs the question.
Is it possible for their hypothetical ocean on Europa to posess those characteristics,and if not,then how can you call it an”ocean?”
More importantly,how could you attribute the possibility for having life in them when they are not oceans yet are called oceans by the scientific community?
So…is it an ocean or not?
Since none of the above existing factors which make what we call our “oceans” are present on or about Europa,the answer has to be negatory Houston.
Why spend their time postulating on things which cannot be then,you ask?
The answer is simple,to get grants from various sources,you have to put forth ideas.They may be far fetched,but they have to be plausible.
Nowever,this idea can be shot down with little to no effort.
Why?
Because by definition,their hypothetical ocean,cannot exist.
So where does that leave the brilliant minds who came up with this hocus pocus?
Kind of makes you wonder how much their education is worth doesnt it?
I am no scholar,yet even I can see through their scatscreen.
That there are intelligent folks among us who watch the discovery/science channels,yet do not point these things out about the various shows which paint us these rosy pictures,I find incredulous.
It just goes to show you that gubment has no business in the aerospace industry.
Can you imagine the fallacious stories politicians would make up to bilk you of your needed planetary fundage to pay for projects that they considered palpable?
The possiblities are incomprehensible.
So much for space exploration………
Cheers!

The lunar landings were completely faked. Like 911, the CIA-controlled MSM were playing propaganda psy-op games to distract from the Vietnam Conflict by creating manufactured patriotism, which is a euphemism for worshiping the State. The grainy images were produced by using a camera placed in front of a tv screen playing a recorded video of the fake lunar landings. All of NASA’s original footage of the lunar landings has been curiously destroyed. Gee, I wonder why??? The engineering practicality of landing on the Moon was prohibitively impossible. Don’t believe me, take the word of Werner von Braun himself…

“It is commonly believed that man will fly directly from the earth to the moon, but to do this, we would require a vehicle of such gigantic proportions that it would prove an economic impossibility. It would have to develop sufficient speed to penetrate the atmosphere and overcome the earth’s gravity and, having traveled all the way to the moon, it must still have enough fuel to land safely and make the return trip to earth. Furthermore, in order to give the expedition a margin of safety, we would not use one ship alone, but a minimum of three … each rocket ship would be taller than New York’s Empire State Building [almost ¼ mile high] and weigh about ten times the tonnage of the Queen Mary, or some 800,000 tons.”

Wernher von Braun, the father of the Apollo space program, writing in Conquest of the Moon

It was also virtually impossible to communicate to and from the Moon. The amplification aspects were prohibitively impossible. There was no practical technology to counteract the extremely wide temperature variances on the surface of the Moon and the intense cosmic rays encountered on the Moon. This was all a hoax, another government fairytale like 911, the downing of TWA Flight 800, Vince Foster’s suicide, Jeannette Palfrey’s suicide, Ron Brown’s plane crash, Senator Paul Wellstone’s plane crash, JFK Jr.’s plane crash, Marilyn Monroe’s suicide, Princess Diana’s car crash, Oswald killed Kennedy, and Obama’s Birth Certificate. Believing in the lunar landings is the adult equivalent of believing in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. The powers that be laugh at just how gullibly stupid we are. The operative question is just what other fairytales will the powers that be try after so much success at fooling us for far too long???

We’re de-evolving.

The space program is one of the very few examples of a successful, legitimate government program. It’s a great pity that the plan to go to Mars was canceled.

The moon landing was directly attributable to the vision of one man, John F Kennedy. Since then, we have been inflicted with unimaginative political leaders whose only interest is securing themselves and their party in a position of power.

They realized that by making people dependent on them, they assured their power. Space exploration does nothing to help these parasites maintain their power.

The moon landing effort did more for the economy and prestige of the US than ten Obama Stimulus Packages, yet we will not see another until we force a limit on the power of the Federal government and its mandarins.

Let the people who wish to explore space do it on their dime.

Obviously all Obaba’s fault.
