This is amazing a private company is doing this! America's best days can still be ahead of us!
Doing what? lying to the American people.
Under watch of NASA, and we hopefully will colonize the moon soon
Did no one stick a gopro on the landing gear? How? Is there actual video of the landing?
I always think of the film "Capricorn One" and the fake moon landing, lol.
Yep 😂😂 their fake outer space stories get dumber each decade 🙄 🤣
About F’king time.
Good luck.
-70 year old engineer … who followed, and was inspired by, Apollo
So u do CGI also
@@user-jv3bw8pl2x 1. Photographic and Video Evidence: NASA has released thousands of photos and videos from the Apollo missions. High-resolution images can be viewed on NASA's official websites. The photos show astronauts walking on the moon, planting the U.S. flag, and conducting various experiments. The video footage includes the famous "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" moment as Neil Armstrong descended the lunar module's ladder.
2. Moon Rocks: The Apollo missions brought back 382 kilograms of lunar rocks, core samples, pebbles, and dust from the lunar surface. These samples have been studied by scientists worldwide and have distinct chemical compositions that are markedly different from Earth rocks, particularly in their lack of water content and the presence of isotopes like uranium-236 and neptunium-237, which are not found naturally on Earth.
3. Independent Tracking: The Soviet Union, the USA's main competitor in space at the time, tracked the Apollo missions through their own radar and space tracking systems. They acknowledged the moon landings, which would be unlikely if the landings were falsified, given the Cold War context. Additionally, independent observatories and organizations worldwide tracked the missions.
4. Retroreflectors: The Apollo 11, 14, and 15 missions placed retroreflectors on the moon's surface. These devices reflect laser beams sent from Earth, allowing scientists to measure the Earth-moon distance very precisely. This experiment, which can be repeated today, confirms equipment is on the moon's surface at the exact locations of the landings.
5. Testimonies and Documentation: Thousands of people worked on the Apollo program, including astronauts, engineers, scientists, and technicians. The detailed documentation of their work, including training, missions, and post-mission analyses, is extensive. The cohesive and consistent testimonies from different individuals involved in the missions are compelling evidence of their authenticity.
6. Technological Artifacts: The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and other satellites have photographed the Apollo landing sites from orbit, showing the lander modules, rovers, and even astronauts' footpaths on the lunar surface.
And back then you must've been so excited about how around the year 2000 or certainly 2020 we'd have lunar bases and huge space colonies and maybe even human Mars missions. I bet you must be beyond disappointed that over 50 years would pass without humanity ever coming back to the moon.
Fake moon landing just like 50 years ago
@@JohnSmith-zw8vp yeah, John, my dad worked for NASA in ‘69 or so, so I got to see the Apollo computer & their “deep space navigation equipment” (sextant & star charts! On “take your kid to work” day. I vividly remember their 32K (or so) memory assembly (about 1 foot x 8” array of hand wired magnetic cores “programmed” by women pulling copper wires thru magnetic cores with long needles). I started engineering school in 1970, graduated with a BS, Mech Engr. In 1974. Then went thru my entire 50 year career, without us going back. I worked mostly in bioengineering (medical devices). I got to work on components for the Space Shuttle, but the disappointment was severe.
It is disappointing but understandable. Loss of interest & funding by the American public & congress. Plus there are other technologies that we could do back then that we can’t do today. For example, we could fly across the Atlantic at Mach 2 on the Concorde, and the XB-70 Valkyrie bomber is the most beautiful plane I’ve ever seen. Can’t do that anymore, either. Just a matter of need & cost.
Its nice to have stuff to be proud of every once in a while being in the US
This waste of our tax dollars is nothing to be proud of. Let's work to meet our needs here on earth first.
@@user-lb6hp6se4g Exploring our Moon might just be a way to meet our needs here on Earth.

Might even land a person there for the first time!
@@user-lb6hp6se4g it's privately funded by investor's so doesn't actually cost you a penny, but I see your point.
it's pretty silly sending men to the moon to do nothing...
according to "NASA TV" wink wink
And M$M(cia)
Why is no one talking about this?
Because 40% of Americans (red hats) think the world is flat, outer space does not exist, and the moon is a holographic projection.... Or something like that.
is it still an achievement if men in the 60's already did it?
Its the stepping stone to a permanent presence on the moon so yeah I'd say its pretty substantial @@smarterthenyou001
@@smarterthenyou001 Yup. When my kids were born, I didn't yawn because it's happened billions of times. ;)
We are, right now! This is a private company, not solely NASA so the fanfare is a little different.
If NASA had a budget like the military, imagine what we would be doing now. SMH
talking chinese in a sweat-shop?
Imagine the US government already have classifed crafts that can already travel to the moon and they just not telling us. NASA knows hahahahhahahahah am a clown sorry>\
It would mean NASA wastes even more money and miss more deadlines.
@@batman-nx9srYes, that WOULD take quite an imagination. No intelligence or education though....

Why don’t we have video of the landing?? It’s such a proud moment!!!!
Cause it's fake.

Funny how it only took 3 days to get there some 50 years ago.
Someone is lying to you?
I know.. now Mars and moon both have water 💧 as well! Their stories keep changing ! 😂😂😂😂 what a fake world filled with fake people blinded by lies.
That’s because Odysseus spent several days on Earth orbit before heading to the moon

@@carmencampeanu7810 Don't get all excited. People that know the real amounts of water are not claiming it like you appear to think they are. The only ones acting like it is a lot are those that have nothing to do with learning how much there is on the moon. In fact part of the reason for going to the moon's South Pole is to try to find out for sure how much might be there since it is not as dry as they once thought. So far the amount of water is not that much and the extraction process is going to be as expensive as getting there is.
We should be on Mars by now. We could do everything better 50 yrs ago--Cars, Space, TV shows, everything....
Scientific Method = Experiments = $$$
Can you survive two years in zero gravity and months in low gravity.....the ILM and MIR took decades to get it up to just over one year.
Average health scientists typically tap out at a few weeks or months.
It is not the ships...it is the human body that limits us.
How about better fake CGI?
Cars? I don’t think so
@@larrybarela8676What is your evidence it was CGI
Fallen Astronaut is the first art work on the Moon.
A 3.5-inch aluminum sculpture by Belgian artist Paul Van Hoeydonck that commemorates astronauts and cosmonauts who have died in space exploration.
Man I hope all goes well, wouldn't want to see a delay.
Been a long time coming!
It is not "going 25,000mph closing in on the moon". Nearer 4000mph now.
25k mph is TLI speed, but over 5 days of travel Earth's gravity is slowing it down.
It's so easy to check these things and get the reporting correct
Prove it!
@@larrybarela8676 I'm a geologist and I understand these things, whereas Flerthers with their Firmament can't find their fundament.
Try some maths....
@@BMrider75 You don't need math, just look up when a rocket is launched and will hit a dome ceiling of about 76 miles altitude. your understanding as a geologist is false. It's all over the internet.

Best Simulation since my Atari
The aliens will be a bit confused when they find the lander containing miniature Moon sculptures next to a dead world.
Finally a new space race
At least our graphics look better than India's Atari tech.
You mean better fake CGI.
If I get rich I'm going to fund a project to draw a giant middle finger on the moon so all the scientifically illiterate people can theorize about how it naturally formed there like that
@@mfpears To late, they did it on Pluto already.
Wow.
Excited to see the moon landing!
I heard people saying it’s fake. Why?
Because a lot of people are idiots.
Want proof?
Google "Donald J Trump".
Because it’s way easier to fake it and turn a profit
because people will believe a lie before they learn the truth.
@@larrybarela8676 wait are you saying the landing is real and people just think it’s fake until they learn the truth or the other way around
Maybe I'll little lost here, what's up with all simulations? I watched there broadcast and they showed that exact scene with a big word simulation the bottom.
“MILKY WAY???”
Pod: Escapes earths gravitational pull
Moon: can’t escape earth gravitational pull
The moon is actually escaping the earths gravitation pull at a rate of 1.5 in (3.8 cm) a year.

What evidence do you have to the contrary?
@@afridgetoofar1818 His "gut feeling" a lot of "trust me bro" and maybe a little flat earth conspiracy level braindamage.
Basically they are arguing that the cold war never happened, the USSR was under one roof with the USA and many other governments, and of course every astronomer on the planet following the space missions (which was basically every one on this planet), and all of them successfully kept up the story about the moon landing, so good that none of the thousands upon thousands of scientists and workers that were involved ever spilled the beans.
Meanwhile, every single piece of "evidence" they ever produced was debunked with a basic level of understanding of the world.
We will eventually have to go pick up all the trash at the pole.
Lol
So ... almost 3 hours of simulations and people staring at screens?

once the moon hit my eye like a big pizza pie and I specifically remember saying " that's amore baby!"
It would land safely I know it would.
Hopefully won’t end up like the imploded submarine last year
I don't get it, why haven't the censored and disabled comments on this platform like all the others did?!
Division. Dialectial Hagelian. Divide & conquer.
So in 1969 America live stream the moon landing and now in 2024 we get CGI footage… lol
No GoPro, no live stream during landing? Just footage of the control room… Rrriiight 🤔
I don't understand why we are inventing the wheel again. If we did it once, why is it hard to do it again. I know the location has issues but land where we know it works and expand from there. I just think we should have a base already.
Nobody wants to use a 60 year old wheel 😅
Because it never happened, wake up.
It never happened Jaimie, these are fairytales told to the masses, wakey wakey ⏰️ 🚨
Because goals changed, funding and motivation were missing, safety considerations increased, regulation changed etc. But once it gets running it should run smoothly and continuously.

Why still not have moon puttege network issues
Why does it seem harder to pull this off now when our technology is so advanced?
Everyone thinks the past was better, easier, safer, etc.. Humans are a species with generational amnesia. Life has always been terrible for most people, extremely hard for most people,, and the world has always been a dangerous place for most people. Go back to the 50's and 60's and ask the millions of people who contributed to the first space program if it was easy. They will all say no.
they had nasa engineers etc. etc. etc. stuff isn't easy.
there were 10 apollos and many other programs like gemini before we landed. it was
Its easier, moon landings back then were just not as careful.
The goals are much more advanced, funding is orders of magnitude lower than during the space race, quality standards are higher, reusability is a factor today etc. It is really comparing apples and oranges.

More space pollution… and who’s drinking moon water? And..are you quarantining them? Sounds like the beginning of an sci-fi horror film.
The thing can’t withstand the freezing temps of the moon? Seriously
They've built it knowing that the moon is cold, thus they picked the required materials and systems to allow it to operate, even in the coldest of temperatures.
We’ll end up destroying the moon like we did earth.

it's cool but expensive and might be slightly pointless :/
the americans used to know that it's too expensive to send men to the moon to wander about for like an hour then go home lol
now if they were smart they would build a state of the art laboratory/ telescope platform - so many benefits to having a stable lab in space imagine all the zero G experiments they could do which just would not be possible on earth.... im just saying make it a worthwhile trip.
