Did man really land on the moon?

Man on the Moon? Yeah Right! - Page 11

Then you are saying that the Russians are taking the USA's word about the 'worth' of the moon? From the time period it seemed to me the Russians kept doubting the possibility of getting there and back safely. Will they say the same now? They have been helpful with the space station yet have not given any indication about the moon ever - strange. Now we have the Japanese with their orbiter taking photos and the Indians testing for water - still no Russians.

My other curiosity is about the Hubble telescope not taking a photo of the Apollo 11 landing apparatus on the moon. Strange that they will not do something like that. I would have thought that after all these years one would at least want to know how it all looks now.

Right Yeah Moon the Man

I just had a thought on all this. We sent a robotic rover to Mars. It tooled around and sent images back.

Why don't we have any robotic anything on the Moon?

I would suspect that the resolution for anything that close to Hubbell would be pretty bad. They did take pictures of the dark side of the moon, but one picture that was OK in size (close as they could get without further compromising resolution) was like 60 square miles of moon surface. It would look like a square on the screen with nothing to descern it from all the other squares on the screen. However, NASA did send up the Lunar Orbiter last year and has some pretty nifty shots of all the Apollo sites...

I am saying that the Russians compared their rocks with our rocks from the moon, their atmospheric testing with ours and saw more reasons to start building nukes than to spend in sending cosmonauts to a desert. The Japanese and Indians are using the moon as a stepping stone in their programs...just as the US and Russia have done. Japan, Europe and China have all accomplished unmanned landings on the moon. Japan's and Europes missions have been more with spectrometry and not photo ops of the surface.

Russia is actually building a impactor and a rover for the moon to fly out 2012. They also have 2 more in the planning phase. So, Russian Space Admin is rolling now with petro dollars...took a little while after thay pesky transition to a quasi free market democratic republic.

There will be a rover or two on the moon in the future to tool around the south pole of the moon. We did not have this technology back in 60's and early 70's to do this and therefore had man guided rovers that transported our astronauts around. Japan, Russia and the US are looking to put rovers on the moon.

There obviously is no massive watershed on the moon, but impactors are still being used to see if there are any small quantities that may suggest previous life. If you remember the photos and film of rock collection, we didn't dig too deep. Impactors with spectrometers are good ways to check for this.

Right Yeah Moon the Man

I'm sorry I just can't understand any logical reason why we wouldn't have robots walking around the Moon 24/7, if we have a robot rolling around on Mars.

In the future we should have one?, or two? Really, wow, why so late?! rolleyes.gif

We are on mars. Aren't we?

Man on the Moon? Yeah Right!

It is pretty simple. We had already seen a lot of the moon (had orbitors cruising it for a long time...Russia, Japan and the US), have been on the moon and returned rocks (something we havent and wont do from Mars any time soon). We had humans in a cosmic dune buggy cruise around the surface.

We had already gathered as much surface data as we could at the time. It was and still is obvious that the moon will not sustain life, has no atmosphere and provides us nothing really unique with the exception of an experience of seeing it. Impactors may now allow us to see deeper into the crust of the moon and identify water if possible, so we are spending some money on it.

With all the previous information we gathered off of the moon from Apollo, Gemini and various other programs, if you had a dollar to spend...wouldnt you want to see something else like Mars? The advancements in our electronic spectometers suggested that we had a thin atmosphere around Mars.

We also sent a probe into Venus twice to check the atmosphere...nice heavy atmosphere, but we wont be heading there anytime soon. Not too hospitable towards us O2 breathers.

As scientific advances and more importantly computer advances, we had the potential to send something to Mars. We also spent the money to send Voyager probes flying through our galaxy.

It is also around the time that we slowed down our space program that the Cold War started to go into full swing with the arms buildup on both sides. It is obvious that the US was able to continue holding onto a program longer, but both sides had to cut back on the radical spending of space exploration. We needed a breather to get our electrical and scientific advancements before return trips were of any value.

Name: Moonlanding?

Comments: Have you ever played an old game called "Lunar Lander"? That thing is so difficult to control. Just imagine the Astronauts got it right the FIRST TIME! Not only that. They were able to blast off with how much fuel and water to get all the way back into the earth at just the right time?

Lunar Lander would be far easier with zero gravity and in the vacuum of space.
