Was it "public apathy" that killed the Space Race "I can't believe it!" "They who have put out the peoples' eyes reproach them for
their blindness." "Thirty years ago, when the Apollo astronauts became the first
humans to voyage to the Moon, they surveyed the lunar landscape and
spoke of 'magnificent desolation.' Thirty years later, the Moon is
still as desolate as they left it. The Apollo astronauts saw a
barren, airless, lifeless world that made them glad to come
home." "Yes, it's depressing that we didn't stay on the Moon the
first time. But it's time to get over it. The thousands of people
who will build this first lunar base will probably live under the
surface to protect them from radiation." "NASA's message has been that
space travel is safe and routine - yet still so dangerous that
ordinary people must be kept out. That's Industrial Age
thinking: bureaucratic-elitist, anti-consumer, slow to adapt to
change. In the Information Age, extreme sports fascinate us, and
industries arise to cater to that interest: Everest-travel companies
for the brave, reality TV for the couch potato, clothing and gear
companies for explorer and wannabe alike." |
"You're fired! Oh, I love how that sounds. I love that so
much, I'm gonna say it again. You're fired!" Were the natives getting restless? What on Earth would Hollywood do if interplanetary space-travel by humans were impossible in sexy low-powered spacecraft lacking bulky but mandatory shielding from deadly radiation? And yes, it does appear that perhaps dozens of astronauts were murdered to keep NASA's Moon secrets safe in their graves! Apollo 1's fire on the launching pad during practice occurred coincidentally a couple days after Gus Grissom gave an impromptu press conference and confessed NASA was at least 10 years from reaching the Moon. The elite draft dodgers were not much better off than a typical grunt fresh out of Basic and marching on point into the jungle full of Agent Orange and Pentagon-fed "Viet Cong" (Vietnamese word for "peasant"). The elite dodgers were definitely better off than the 30+ US soldiers in post-War Korea who volunteered for "medical experiments", only to get cooked at 400 degrees F, apparently to test human limits of survival when BBQed by 250 degree sunlight in a spacecraft's tin can. Although 25 years old, Capricorn 1 is still the closest Hollywood has come to a whistleblower movie on NASA's fraud and organized crimes. And, may still hold true when NASA and/or "Space Projects of United Nations (SPUN)" demands trillions of taxdollars to land human astros on Mars in the next few years. |

TeeVee Review: This show included an interview with Bill Kaysing, author of We Never Went to the Moon and an employee of NASA Apollo-engine contractor Boeing-Rocketdyne, who reported that Hollywood's Stanley Kubrick (2001 - A Space Odyssy - re-released for brainwashing in 2002, presumably with the same cloned ending) directed the Apollo Simulation Project (from Norton Air Force Base in Los Angeles), and that the lunar lander's rocket motor should have melted a hole so deep the LEM would have landed on bedrock after blowing all the sand and boulders out of the way. This "documentary" appears to have been an exercise in damage control against Bart Sibrel's excellent documentary, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon (2001 - [A Spaced Travesty]), since they interviewed Sibrel and had a self-confessed bad-scientist rebut a highly censored list of evidence. Sibrel noted that NASA only kept 20 photos of the entire Apollo 11 lunar mission, yet PAX failed to point out that 100,000s of photos were admittedly taken by NASA in previous robotic lunar missions, both orbitals and landings. Zero mention was made of the most-damning proof - the deadly radiation in space that requires 10-foot-thick lead walls of both spacecraft and spacesuits in order to leave low-Earth orbit. Little explanation was provided with Sibrel's best evidence - that the cloud formations in Apollo video of "distant" Earth bear zero resemblance to an entire planet and only can be explained via zoomed-in close-ups. PAX chose all or nothing conspiracy - either the astronauts never left the ground and NASA never sent robots into outer space, or NASA never lies and actually landed men on the Moon and returned them alive (not counting 3 "accidentally" killed on the launch pad plus 3 more "accidentally" killed in a "routine" plane crash). I guess it was too much to hope for a real documentary on TV. The 2nd half of the show was about Christian Bible scholarship of Old Testament (and thus impacted Jewish and Islamic scriptures) - implying the rediculous notion that a viewer only has 2 choices: either NASA did land humans on the Moon (science), or the viewer must accept that God and not human beings wrote the Bible (religion).
The commentator (an unbiased "cop" on sitcom TeeVee) alleged that the viewer cannot figure out - and did not even suggest - that NASA:

"This is the greatest week in the history of the world since the
Creation." Fire-till-touchdown
not feasible for the Apollo LEM Preliminary
results of the "fire-till-touchdown" study by Grumman indicated that this
maneuver was not feasible. The engine might be exploded by driving the
shock wave into the nozzles. The base heatshield temperature would exceed
1,789K (5,000 degrees F), which was high enough to melt portions of the
structure, possibly causing destruction of the foot pads. The allowable
pressure on the nonstructural elements of the base heatshield would be
exceeded; and the descent engine flow field would tend to cause a "POGO"
effect which would cause landing instability and could prevent engine
cutoff. "The Secretary of Defense announced the assignment of Lt. Gen.
Samuel C. Phillips (USAF), who had been serving as Apollo Program Director
in the NASA Office of Manned Space Flight, to be Commander of the Air
Force Space and Missile Systems Organization (SAMSO) in Los Angeles....
NASA named Rocco A. Petrone, Director of Launch Operations at KSC, to
succeed Samuel C. Phillips as Director of the Apollo Program effective
September 1." |
"Grumman built a full-scale cardboard model of the LEM to aid in
studying problems of cockpit geometry, specifically the arrangement of
display panels. This mockup was reviewed by MSC astronauts and the layout
of the cockpit was revised according to some of their suggestions. Also
Grumman reported that a preliminary analysis showed the reaction control
system plume heating of the LEM landing gear was not a severe problem (31
August 1963). In honor of the late President John F.
Kennedy, who was assassinated six days earlier, President Lyndon B.
Johnson announced that LOC and Station No. 1 of the Atlantic Missile Range
would be designated the John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) (28
November 1963). Grumman conducted manned drop tests to
determine the LEM crew's ability to land the spacecraft from a standing
position (17 April 1964). All tests were run with the subject in an
unpressurized suit in a "hands off" standing position with no restraint
system or arm rests. A LEM ascent engine exploded during altitude firings
at Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC - 1 Sept. 1965). A LM test
failed in the Grumman ascent stage manufacturing plant December 17. A window in LM-5 shattered during its initial cabin
pressurization test, designed to pressurize the cabin to 3.9
newtons per square centimeter (5.65 pounds per square inch). Both inner
and outer windows and the plexiglass cover of the right-hand window
shattered when the pressure reached 3.5 newtons per sq cm (5.1 psi - 17
December 1967). ASPO Manager George M. Low and others from MSC met with
Grumman's LM engineering staff, headed by Thomas J. Kelly, to discuss the
descent stage heatshield and thermal blanket problems associated with
reduced thrust decay of the descent engine at lunar touchdown. Grumman
would begin design studies of a jettisonable descent engine skirt. (7 June
1968). The Allison descent-stage propellant tank,
being redesigned at Airite Division of Sargent Industries to a "lidless"
configuration, blew up during qualification test at Airite. The
crew noticed loss of pressure and therefore tightened fittings and
repressurized. As the pressure went up, the tank blew into several pieces
(27 September 1968). 'During this period, however, there occurred a
successful unmanned test of the Lunar Module and two unmanned tests of the
Saturn V vehicle.' The possibility of an unmanned LM
landing was discussed at NASA Hq. (11 February 1969). The additional direct cost to the Apollo research and
development program from the January 27, 1967, Apollo 1 fire was estimated
at $410 million, principally for spacecraft modifications, NASA
Associate Administrator for Manned Space Flight George E. Mueller
testified in congressional hearings. The accident
delayed the first manned flight of the spacecraft by about 18
months (11 March 1969). Russian Luna 15
unmanned soil return mission launched coincident with Apollo 11 mission in
last ditch attempt to return lunar soil to earth before United States.
After completing 86 communications sessions and 52 orbits of the Moon at
various inclinations and altitudes, crashed on the moon on 20 July in an
attempted landing. Altitude data used in programming inaccurate or
guidance system unable to cope with effect of lunar mascons (gravitational
mass concentrations on Moon - 13 July 1969)." During the Apollo 11
management debriefing, the ASPO Manager noted a number of items requiring
investigation. During separation from the S-IVB stage, the CSM autopilot apparently had difficulty determining
direction of rotation. After the CSM hatch removal, there was a strong
odor of burnt material in the tunnel. The temperature in the lunar
module was too cold during sleep periods. The biological isolation garment
was uncomfortably hot and its visor fogged. The crew observed flashes at
the rate of about one per minute in the command module at
night." "The Universe is home to numerous exotic and beautiful phenomena,
some of which can generate almost inconceivable amounts of energy.
Supermassive black holes, merging neutron stars, streams of hot gas moving
close to the speed of light ... these are but a few of the marvels that
generate gamma-ray radiation, the most
energetic form of radiation, billions of times more
energetic than the type of light visible to our eyes." "All propaganda has to be popular and has to adapt its spiritual
level to the perception of the least intelligent of those towards whom it
intends to direct itself. The great masses of the people will more easily
fall victims to a big lie than to a small one."
