- The TV camera's Apollo left on the Moon
Apollo 17 was the last mission to the moon but if no one else is there, who’s operating the TV camera as it pans up and follows the ascent module when it returned to Earth? here's a clue... it's not Stanley Kubrick

My dad worked at RCA in Lancaster PA and was always proud that he had worked on these cameras as a technician.
@Vin Commons Provide a picture of those Greenland hills. Or a latitude and longitude.
Or are you just the obvious troll?
@Vin Commons Am I waiting for you to check this sock account before you answer?
That's very cool and don't listen to those other morons
@Vin Commons shut up ya nonse
Very cool...way to go dad!
Ground Control to Major Tom,
You've gone and left the lens cap on.
lul
Tom just needs to sit down and have a drink. He has been floating in space for decades now because of David.
Hahaha
Minor Tom to Ground control......
Funny one of the early Venus missions ended that way lol... Someone forgot to take the lens cap off... :/
I still can't wrap my head around the enormity of the Apollo program. These guys left earth, landed, walked on and left the moon to return safely, all the while protected by a tiny cramped spacecraft with little more than tin foil between them and space.
And using 1960s technology. With no hope of survival if anything went wrong. It's just amazing! The *balls* on those guys...
Sadly, we'll probably never see people like them again.
The sixties were an incredible period with just the right mix of technology, go-attitude, and men with balls of steel.
They had to shed the balls of steel because of weight restrictions. They replaced them with nylon by Dupont.
Hi Kiyoshi, have a real look at the LM design. "little more than tin foil between them and space", you have no idea, so check out the craft. "With no hope of survival if anything went wrong", have you never heard of apollo 13?Cheers, John.
in Apollo 13, they also packed duct tape :P
Hi Kiyoshi, All apollo missions had hundreds of things that went wrong. I remember seeing a program about the apollo missions and one of the astronauts said that EVERY single thing that went wrong was logged, from the absolutely insignificant thing to the obvious failures. Every mission had a very long list of things that went wrong!! You probably know that on apollo 11 the ascent engine fire button had broken off and Houston told them that anything that would fit into the hole left should work. Armstrong used a pen to press the ascent engine firing. Cheers, John.
Cripes, we went to the moon in a time that didn't even have VHS. It boggles the mind.
It's amazing right? And yet despite how advanced technology is now at days, we can't go back to the Moon.
NASA is waiting till the 2020s for technology to advanced a little more so that we can go back to the Moon.
Give me a break.
They compensated it with a massive amount of manpower and money. Lots and lots of money. Something didn't work? Pay some more experts to figure it out.
This is untinkable today, today has to be cheap, cheaper, the cheapest. They spent billions on the moon landing program with up to a half million people working for it? Naah, today, you'll have a million dollars and a handful of people, nothing more, do it with these, EOD!!!
soriac A modern day smartphone is millions of times more powerful than all of NASA’s combined computing in 1969. So yeah, it would be really expensive to go to the moon again. 😂
Ryan, if getting to the moon could be done entirely by computer power and software, then your "😂" would be appropriate. Unfortunately, doing things IRL is sometimes a little harder than doing them in a video game.
KarlBunker OK, but how come I can't send my friend in Portugal a video. It comes up with "Error sending message"?
Amazing, I didn't know they tried to film the ascent stage crash. That would have been ball-achingly cool.
That shirt is something more important than lunar landings
Remotely operate a camera on the moon in the 70's...and I can't even get a decent wifi signal in my living room
laughing man, difference is they knew what they where doing, you obviously don't.
Peter Scheen read the handle before you embarrass yourself in a public forum again
What did I read wrong? When you cannot get a decent wifi signal in your living room you are doing something wrong, laughing or not. My wifi works perfectly.
Peter Scheen you must be dumb as a door nob mate. If you had recognized the handle you would know my comments are sarcastic in nature and meant as a joke. The fact that you didn't get that even on your second attempt means yoy must have the IQ of sea weed. Good luck with life mate, you're going to need it.
And when you have read my response to your comment you would have understood that I was a bit cynical about your "embarrass" commenting on my comment, I do not consider a wifi signal a laughing matter.
Did you ever read comments by "Truthers"? They sound exactly like yours. So an honest mistake is easily made and is no embarrassment at all for me but shows more the failed sarcasm?
2:42 - In my opinion, the footage captured that starts at 2:42 of this video and shows Cernan, I believe, hopping back to the lunar module, is what I consider to the most amazing piece of video footage ever captured. It is absolutely breath taking. Not only the footage, but when you think about all of the factors in place to make the mission happen. It is absolutely amazing. So, this is what I consider to the be the most breath taking piece of video ever taken. I also believe that the most incredible photograph ever taken can be credited to a NASA astronaut as well. While orbiting the moon in the Command Module while Armstrong and Aldrin were having fun on the lunar surface, Michael Collins took some of the most amazing and mind blowing photos ever taken. We are all familiar with the iconic photo that Mike Collins took from the CM's window that shows the Lunar Module descending to the lunar surface and also shows a pin sized Earth in the background. Like so many have said before, Mike Collins was the only human being, alive or perished and buried, not to be featured in that photograph. He truly was the most isolated human being in the history or mankind and the solar system. Mike Collins is THE man. He doesn't get enough recognition for all that he did. Just think about the pressure he had on his shoulders when given the task of being the Command Module pilot. He was the only 'ride home' for the other astronauts. If something had gone wrong, he would have had to fly home alone. Just think about having to deal with that while knowing of the very real possibility of a solo flight home. Lunar landings and takeoffs had never been attempted before (obviously). For that alone, Mike Collins should be given an award for having the biggest balls ever on a man. He is THE man.
Very true sir. The video of Cernan hopping back yo the LM is amazing. As for Michael Collins, he is a great man and his attitude when talking about the Apollo missions is very humorous. Watch the documentary, "In the Shadow of the Moon" to see what I mean. As someone else said above, the Apollo astronauts were all great men with ballz of steel. To me that's the biggest rebuttal to any ignorant individual that thinks we didn't actually land on the moon. The astronauts accomplished so much before being selected for the space program. If they'd then been told, all your work from here on is part of a hoax, most, if not all of the astronauts would have walked away in disgust rather than participate. These were men driven by achievement throughout their lives, and none would have participated in a hoax.
@@therealuncleowen2588 "In the shadow of the moon" i hope i find it"
hahaha I still think that´s was fake. Who can believe that a TV camera could be operated from Earth at that time by radio? hahaha There is also proof that it is a lie and that is that in this video you can see how the camera was located in Rover 0:28 but in the take off from moon movie at the end, the camera goes down to the floor and funny thing, you can't see the rover at all hahaha (you can see the entire movie on youtube searching "Last Takeoff from the Moon - Apollo 17's Lunar Module blastoff!" that was just FAKE!!
I really wish we could go back today using todays better technology. The computers,camaras,everything,so much more advanced.
RC Hobbyist Extreme agree
Yeah, its funny how they can't do that
овца товарищ LLLLLOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The adverage phone even has better video capture capabilities then a 5 year old camera. It is insane how far technology has come in in such a short time.
60s and 70s transistors were large enough to survive radiation, modern day ones are too small
I'm just try to imagine Mars mission in 4K HDR! 😎
D Jaquith I will put two Exmoor R 21 mp cameras in the Rover that I'm designing. You will have 4K 3D video from the Mars
flakjacket5
I'd thought we'd be there around the Millennium, but by then I also thought we'd have self-driving cars. Eventually we'll get to Mars hopefully in the next 20 years or sooner. 👍
The problem would be getting the bandwidth on the retransmit of it back to earth.
I doubt it'd be live, I'd love to just have it downloaded on my computer!
But please, forget HDR since it has so much DRM in it... :(
you would be waiting a while to see that mission, it would take them 9 years if they done a google map version of mars just to send the data back with our current radio frequency data systems. I would imagine it would take a good year of continuous transmission to send a 4k HDR copy of a mars landing back to earth, it would probably be easier and quicker for them to just record on a memory card and bring it back in their pocket.
Clean concise no BS informational video from Curious Droid . Great as usual. Thanks and a Big THUMBS UP !
When I first saw that video of the ascent module leaving, I knew that some serious planning had to have gone into that shot.
However I didn't realize the full extent. It's mind-boggling what they squeezed out of the technology available back then. For me (my parents were schoolchildren back then!) it's hard to realize that seemingly basic things like portable video cameras or flight computers that would fit into the spaceship were so cutting edge they had to be developed just in time for the missions.
Great insight you have there, sir. I liken the Apollo missions use of the best available technology to solve problems to the way the ancients built amazing structures with the tools available, or how ancient Greek Eratosthenes measured the circumference of the Earth quite accurately with sunlight in two wells in two different towns. Human ingenuity is an amazing thing.
@Curious Droid - How long did the camera stay operational after they left? In other words, how long was it before they could not longer control or receive images from the camera.
The camera was powered by the Lunar Rover's batteries. I don't think they got much beyond 24 hours of power from the batteries after the astronauts had left the lunar surface.
EricIrl it had solar panels
No it did not have solar panels. franklin, it was left on for quite a while. I have the raw footage at home if you really want to know, I can check.
Thanks, but I was just curious since I thought it might have had solar panels. Then again solar panels were crappy back then and likely could not have powered both the camera and transmitter.
No but Grumman (who made the Lunar Module) designed a rover that DID have solar panels and could be driven remotely after the astronauts had left the surface for so say, "months". They did not win the contract for the Lunar Rover because theirs was far too large and could not be folded up like the LRV could. But it's really awesome and worth checking out. There is footage of it being tested on the web.
can you imagine what price that rover would bring at auction today
TigerShark I know. It would be incredible.
you can buy but you must collect ;)
It would be amazing definitely going to the Nasa museum or smithsonian.
well about 2 dollars.
LOL
yeah the delivery bill would be a sonofabitch....im sure elon musk will buy it from nasa and send a mission to bring it back so he can have it in his living room
I've just found your channel, the videos are great! I've always been fascinated by the Mercury, Apollo and STS missions, I'm so pleased you have put these videos together!
Your videos are always worth a watch and a like, even with stuff like this that I'd heard before... you always manage to find extra details
The LM blasting off of the moon was, and still is, the he coolest thing I’ve ever seen! I saw it live!
I saw Apollo 11 on.... All of the EVA’s as well. I lived near the space center then.
Plus over 100 shuttle launches and now the returning boosters of SpaceX
That 70's shirt is groovy my friend! As always great video keep going my friend!
A '70s topic demands '70s shirt aesthetics.
Your channel is amazing, thanks for all of this!
Love your channel! Keep up the good work sir :)
Can you imagine if they went back to the Moon today that it wouldn't need so much pre-planning and remote control? These days there would be enough intelligence in these cameras to motion track the modules leaving the lunar surface on their own. They could even leave a camera on the lunar module as it crashed back down to Earth, while it was plunging!
yet it does seem curios why they wont even use the unmanned technology to more clearly show the landing sites and vehicles left behind in HD for the current generation who despite having doubts about the landings would be very keen and open minded to see the moon the original technology that they used back then as clear confirmation
One word: MONEY
Look at spaceX. Their reusable rockets are really mindblowing. And thats with todays tech
I was a technician at the Goldstone Deep Space Station in the Mojave Desert where we tracked all space missions including the Apollo missions. After the last Apollo craft left the moon, from time to time, the good people at JPL in Pasadena would give us live feed from the camera that was left om the moon.
It was very eerie watching the video pan and zoom with the knowledge that there was no one on the moon. Particularly fascinating were zoomed images of the footprints left by the astronauts. They seemed like deep canyons.
Occasionally we would bounce lasers reflected by a mirror on the lunar lander. These were used to calculate the distance to the moon.
You mean where they filmed the moon landings..Mojave desert 🤔🤔
@@jimmyReesby exaaactly..
I love your programs and your hard work in putting them together!!!! Thank you for the videos.
The rover's camera saved weight by transmitting mechanical color TV. It had a motorized color wheel that allowed it to transmit a color image with only a single black and white image tube.
thanks for info , i always wonder how they filmed the last take off
Flat-Earthers don't believe satellites exist. So I asked one why he was pointing his TV satellite towards the sky, to which he responded " ... it's complicated..." lol
Greasy King All he needs to do is get a good pair of binoculars or a telescope, and go out on a clear night. Sooner or later a satellite will pass overhead... Occasionally the ISS may pass over, it's huge solar panels can clearly be seen in binoculars.
Greasy King that's a lie as it is well known in the flat earth community the satellite TV dishes point to the nearest cell tower...there is only about a 100 videos dedicated to exposing SAT TV as having nothing to do w satellites. So this imaginary conversation you had w this flat Earther from the Niagara Falls region is laughable.
The Paranoid Blues Man so what your saying is that you can see a bus sized object from hundred of miles away? lol I know what u are seeing, little lights moving in the sky. I've seen them too but they cannot be satellites as the assuredly don't exist for a variety of reasons but most importantly it would be like trying to see a school bus from 200 plus miles away , w a pair of binoculars... or a satellite lol not going to happen.... it's too far and too small to see......common sense bruh!
+Jon Sknows: Pointing to a 'cell' tower; as in cell phones? For Satellite TV? lol. You need to get out into the country, where there are few or no towers of any kind; point the dish in the sky, at the correct angle and you receive a signal. The 100 videos, and even if there were 1,000, can not explain why you receive satellite TV signals by pointing at nothing but the sky, in the most remote places on Earth, even when you can't get a cell signal.
Jon Sknows What do you people believe happens when you literally fly around the earth from, lets say: LA to China from china to moscow/europe, from europe to new york and drive cross country back to LA.
Why do you find whatever scheme/idea more believable. Why do you belive the earth is flat, who would gain and how?
What do you believe happens when you go sky diving and can see the curvature of earth? Where do you belive the energy (sunlight) comes from? What happensof you go 'over' the edge?
Do you believe there is any experiment/proof/test you can witness/conduct that would convince you earth is not flat and conversely do you have any infallible proof that it is. Have you tried testing your beliefs with Occam's Razor?
Great video, and a first channel you have here, Droid. Professionally done on a wide variety of topics.
Once again, a great video. Andy Munzer did a great job with the research and writing! Thanks, guys!
Video. A scientific and technological achievement of mankind which we nowadays don't give a second thought about. If we just take a step back mentally and think about it we'll realise it is one of the most amazing things in the world.
Wow! I never heard that they tried to crash the LM ascent stage close enough to catch it on camera. That would have been awesome!
Agreed. But there wouldn't be a Hollywood style slow motion orange fireball when it hit so the hoaxers would call that fake too.
Heh, true. it would have just crumpled and raised some dust...Now the question is.. where DID the Apollo ascent stages come down if it wasn't in the right place? Have any been caught on LRO imagery?
@@wingsofwrath4647 ruclips.net/video/U4BxDyYLzzc/видео.html
Yeah if it was true… if only lol
Great info! And with your own music, I love that!
.
Had NO idea they had planned to also try and capture Apollo 17's LEM, crashing back onto the moon's surface with that same camera that captured the ascent!
Had they been able to do it, that would have been one STUPENDOUS shot !!
Thanks for passing that interesting little tidbit along....
.
@CuriousDroid are you going to cover the google xprize moon landing attempts. If all goes well we should see some action in the next 5 months.
Buzz Aldrin was first man to pee on moon
when he paused on ladder for a minute . true story
That shirt is so 1970s that my hair grew 6" while watching this vid and John Bonham came back from the great beyond.
another great video! - I take issue though with your comment "filmed the dust settling back after the launch" - The lunar dust, as I've pointed out to the occasional denier - shot away from the launch site at 16,000 fps - or whatever the exhaust velocity of the rocket was - so on the airless moon the dust would have "settled" several miles away.
Love this channel. Its my favourite. And this is the best shirt yet! Gday from Australia!
stralien goodnight from Ireland.
Thats great news! Thanks Paul :-) And you are doing a great job with these videos mate. Well done!
Let me guess, the Parkes Radio Telescope and retransmit of the TV from the moon? I assume you have watched The Dish? Great movie.
nomadtales It's considered a comedy. I agree. It's a fun film, but so much artistic license was taken, only a small portion is factual. Check out what the fine folks at honeysucklecreek.net have put together IF you really want to how the Apollo 11 TV worked (and didn't). Short version: The Aussie's were brilliant! Honeysuckle was spot on, Parkes was FAR more professional than "The Dish" gives credit, the real fkup was Goldstone with washed out and inverted video.
streuth! that's a bonza shirt alright, wonder what colour his dacks are?
I’d like to know where you get your shirts....
They are so cool
Always love your videos!
You just got a new subscriber. I like all types of channels that shows good information.
Love the shirt mate. Oh and the vids.
Again another bbc quality production from Paul ....... Nice one.
who needs TV anymore when we got quality content like this on youtube :D
Very interesting. Think its worth mentioning that prior to Apollo 15, the TV cameras for Apollo were supplied by Westinghouse which also gave good results.
These videos are like a double treat. Not only do I enjoy them (And occasionally learn something new from them), I then get to enjoy a few laughs at the comments from the looney-toons that think we never went to the moon.
It’s just so much entertainment in one video!
ruclips.net/video/-xc61kv4aH0/видео.html
I always considered this "footage of the departing lunar module, taken by a tilting camera while no man was left behind issue" as one of the more consistent arguments in favor of the "the Apollo program was a hoax" conspiracy theorists... because i thought that due to the time-lag between earth and the moon, this camera could never have been remotely controlled so beautifully!! Now this argument has plummeted to earth and has been put with two feet on steady ground by this video.. Never thought that someone would answer this particular question that i carried around for such a long time.. but now you did! Thank you!
You will find that if you dig into all the claims that moon landing deniers offer they all will fall apart just as this one has for you. All of their claims are ultimately based on ignorance of the facts. Often times they have trouble figuring out how things were done so they just cry "fake". I don't think they can accept that someone else is smarter than they are and could solve the technical challenges necessary to go to the moon. Then you have the religious zealots and paranoid government haters who find spaceflight and the moon landings contrary to their unshakable belief systems.
That bit of information has been available for more than 45 years, so it's a little ridiculous & kinda slow on the uptake that you ever bought into that argument to begin with(?)
So the launch of the Lunar Module had to be coordinated with a receiver / transmitter antenna on earth in order to operate the camera and to receive the video image.
Glad to see you are open minded and intelligent enough to realize the truth when you see it. Humanity went to the moon thanks to many very smart, hard working people who used every means available to overcome obstacles, one at a time, to make it happen. It is among humanity's greatest achievements.
You are not allowed to use critical thinking skills. I bet you also asked yourself how much electricity would be needed to broadcast a tv signal 238,000 miles through the void of space?
If moon got cameras, where are the nudes? #IlluminatyConfirmed
There would have been way too much 70s bush on display.
nudes would be dead
Illuminudy
Sorry, nude machine 🇧roke.
That's on the dark side of the moon.
Such a good site with interesting video. Great stuff!
Another top video Paul!
love your shirt, Scott!
On Apollo 12, the astronaut (Commander Pete Conrad??) who proceeded set up the TV camera early in the first moon walk unintentionally pointed it at the sun and burned out the camera's 'retina,' only minutes after the camera had been switched on for the first time. For the rest of the astronauts' stay on the lunar surface, NASA had no live TV feed to forward to the world's curious. Only audio was available for the world to listen to. It might have been interesting to mention that.
The commander had been Charles "Pete" Conrad, correct, but the unlucky culprid of the video camera destruction was the LEM Pilot Alan Bean, aka the fouth man on the moon. He had a series of bad luck with cameras during the whole mission, he wanted to use a timer for a camera on the moon so both he and Pete could be on the same picture (imagine what that would have done to the hoaxer scene :-) but couldn't find it when it was time. Then, during the re-entry and watering, a non-secured camera hit him right on the head so he lost conscious for a few seconds. But on the other hand, when the Saturn5 was hit by lightning and had a complete telemetry blackout, "Beano" was the hero of the hour by switching to that infamous "SCE to AUX" :-)
All in all, I would love to see more about Apollo 12, on a whole, this mission was much more interesting than the previous, and in comparison to the colorful crew of Pete, Beano and Dick Gordon, the previous crew Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins were just pale. It is acutally my favourite mission and crew of all Apollo :-)
Thanks! Yeah, that lightning strike was something else! Would have really given me the whillies! Never heard of the bad camera luck though.
I remember being disappointed when the TV camera went out because I wanted to see Surveyor 3 and Conrad & Bean walking up to it.
@@soriacx Can you just imagine telling a man like Pete Conrad..gee pete after all your training and service to your country we want you to use a bit of deception as we want you to just act like you're going to make a Moon landing.. meet us at this undisclosed sound stage where we'll fake your mission..
@@neilbishop1686 Stop with your "fake moon landing" shit. We went to the moon. Deal with it.
@@PockyChoco23 ..If you think my statement was in any way saying the Moon landings were fake..then you should take a class on the meaning of SARCASM ie:as in SATIRICAL ..implies as it's purpose of use is the exposing or attacking the STUPIDITIES of others ..
Hey Paul! Love your channel. 3 questions; how come there's no flame noticeable at all when the LEM takes off? And how long were they able to use that camera on the rover after? And what kind of shape do you think everything left behind is in now 50 years later? Like, would the rover still work if it had new batteries?
These videos are awesome. Keep up the good work. Regards from Iceland
Hey CuriousDroid, the title doesn't make sense. If I try to make sense of it I assume you are trying to say "The TV camera Apollo's (Apollo has) left on the Moon"
Curious Droid Well there wasn't supposed to be an apostrophe. I see you have corrected it now. Cheers ;)
what moon?
Nice to see. My father in law worked on the camera and Rover communication system when he worked for RCA.
Still makes me thrilled after all these years.
This is awesome! So many people have complained to me about this. Perfect video! Thank you!
So, Nasa command center threat their astronaut "if you guys didn't park the rover and the camera correctly, i'm gonna kill you when you're back to the Earth", if that so I rather stay on the moon and troll them "COME AND GET ME !"
So true.
Ernest Jay But that would last as long as a 5 year old runaway when your air supply started to dwindle😎
That is why no one will send you on important mission ever..

384,000km wireless internet in early 1970's. How is your wi-fi signal at the end of your street in 2017??
You obviously need to study up on antennas. goodluck
First, it's not a wifi signal, it's an analog, modulated signal.
Second, even my wifi reception would be phenomenal if I had one of these antennas:
www.parkes.atnf.csiro.au/images/PA8685_flip_sml.jpg
I know it's not internet - just being a smart arse....
So, because you know nothing about radio transmission means it is fake ?
Razvan J : Wifi works fine through concrete walls where I live ( in France ) and this technology carry high speed Internet that would be impossible with the long wave radio signal used for this kind of mission.
This answers a question I've had since I was a kid! I always wondered how they filmed that!
Great video, my only note: if a cameras POV goes up/down its a title, left to right is a pan.
Wow.....that shirt😲
Instant acid trip!
Retro 1969
Yeep, it's hypnotic
Hilarious. I'm really convinced now. Thanks
Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. So I'm just gonna leave a passive aggressive comment and ask you to prove it.
Otherwise, it really is convincing. A lot of the audience watching the LEV take off thought it was fake due to the fact it looks like it was just being yanked away, very underwhelming compared to the massive Saturn V launch. Inertia causes this phenomenon, very little effort is required to move in space. It's wobbling around to correct it's ascent to rendevous with the command module and head home.
Paul’s shirt is also 1970s technology. Which is still ahead of its time.
I always saw the take off and pan but failed to check out how it happened - so thank you
Lies again, it was me they left on the Moon to film the launch and there's no port-a-potties up here and I don't know how much longer I can hold it. Please send some relief with mountains of T.P. PLEASE!
Hang in there, Matt Damon is on his way.
Phew, thanks…Matt Damon the Martian? Gee I just got rid of the Americans space aliens when their visas expired. Now you send me a Martian. Well, maybe that’s okay. He’s got a green thumb and maybe he can help me grow green stuff up here…MoonMusk AKA Mary Jane.
P.S. hold off on the T.P. I just learned it’s filled with carcinogens. I’ll use the moon rocks instead.
There is no one to see you there, so just go ahead and piss!
Nick W Dr Mann 😱
Excellent. A clear description which proves to anyone with a brain exactly how they did this :)
I wish it WOULD end the conspiracy idiocy but it won't!
They're still claiming it was done with models and harness rigs to simulate low gravity... No amount of hi-res imagery is going to convince these people unless you send THEM on a trip to the moon!
+AvengerII: No it won't help to send these retards to the moon and even smash their heads against the remains of the LM. They would still deny it. Even if time travel would be possible and you would grab the retards , drag them to the moon 1969 in the Tardis and let them watch as Armstrong climbs down the ladder, they would still deny it. Let whatever god they believe in descend down and let him confirm the moon landings, they would still deny it.
There is nothing, absolutely nothing, that would convince a die-hard denier otherwise. They simply can't be convinced, they are retards.
but the thing is they don't deserve to be sent up there. leave them here as we expand into the universe. no need for these kind of people where we're going. They like to be stuck in one place and be miserable, keep it. Fuck off.
It's important to understand why "conspiracy idiocy" exists. Basically some moron shouting Hahahahahahahaha gets attention. Stand on the street corner shouting "The world is ending" and some people will stop listen/argue." try the same thing shouting "The world is fine", and nothing. It gets deeper and there is more psychology, but the bottom line is they are not looking for a better explanation of the TV cameras, no stars, or round Earth. They just know that "Hey the Earth is flat" means clicks, attentions, comments.
Colin Jones remotely controlled camera from earth with a 1.7 second delay. Hahahahahahahaha a modern day go pro has a delay from mobile to camera and that's how many years later??????? We never went to the moon
Paul, you're right, it wasn't Stanley Kubrick, it was the mysterious figure on the grassy knoll due to the Earth being flat in Roswell.
Great video!!! Love your shirt
Outstanding! And love the Kubrick comment!
yeah kubrick directed the fake footage. his depiction of the lunar surface in 2001 a space odyssey is particularly convincing
3:05 A little nitpicking... A camera tilts up, not pan. Pan is sideways, as in panorama :-)
Great video though, learn something new ecery day!
I so wanted to correct this as well.
You might want to learn how to spell 'every', lol.
This is why we need to return to the moon. People around the world have even more access to knowledge, and better connectivity today than in the 70's. Another mission to the moon would be great for getting kids interested in science.
are the cameras still operational to date? or offline?
The Posts are better than the Video
bahahaha. truth.
Can't really believe a guy wearing a peacock shirt 🙄
because it looking nice their try divert tension to himself instead of fake hoax video
Thank you Paul, Love the T shirt, well worth it
What was the hypergolic fuel used?
Doesn't Aerozine 50 fuel, and N2O4 oxidizer look a lot different than this?
Paul.. dude were on earth did u get that shirt ..he ..he... awesome vid ...peace out
To all the people that say they didn't land on the moon....
What would it take for you to believe? You say you want pictures , they give you pictures.
You want video, they give you videos. You repeat the same tired arguments (Van Allen belt ect) ,they give you a detailed explanation on how it works. It seems to me that you have your mind made up regardless of what evidence is given. You seem to pick and chose what science to believe in . So what would it take?
That's a very good question, and one which many hoaxers refuse to answer. My guess is that at least for some of them, even actually going there and inspecting the landing sites with their own eyes will not satisfy them.
They need to believe this. They have staked their intellect(what little of) and reputation on it. NOTHING with change their mind. Not even the LRO photos. They say those can be doctored too. Why would a whole new generation of scientists and engineers perpetrate this lie. It truly is a mental disorder.
Rudiger Glique The real answers are right at your fingertips. Not this drivel hoaxer crap.
@Rudiger Glique The moon rocks gathered on the moon were verified by scientists all over the world to be legit. But, I'm not your tutor. Look it up.
@Rudiger Glique And Hoaxtard's always think asking a stupid question is somehow proof of something. Answer your own stupid questions.
I recall that one of the Apollo missions the camera was used to see a lunar eclipse from the moon, showing the earth's shadow crossing the lunar landscape. I believe it was the Apollo 15 mission and that was another reason they chose to follow the assent.
Great video. I always wondered how they got those shots.
LIKE - BEAUTIFUL!!!
Dear RUclips. Please make a low IQ filter so we can not get comments from Moon landing deniers...
That would be terrible. Flat earthers and space deniers are my go-to entertainment after a drink or two.
head shake...@ 3:54 ! the vehicle heads straight up but then proceeded to "film the rest of the ascent from the lunar module window" so my question is what window in the LM let them get that view, was there a window in the floor? or the next reasonable answer is the LM turned on it's side to view the ascent from that view?, and if the second is true, when did it turn because it wasn't in the first minute of the ascent and also note the quality of the moon ascent as opposed to the rendezvous , what happened to the high quality camera? so many ?'s
bcherbs All questions with answers if you care to look for them.
... the windows on the LEM were angled specifically so you could look straight down, and you could have learned that yourself with 5 minutes of googling.
As for the cameras, the one on the rover is a VIDEO camera, converting the signal into radio waves and sending it to the Earth. The one inside was a FILM camera, so the footage was only seen after the astronauts returned to earth and the film was developed. And yes, there is a marked difference between 1971 video and film.
There you go, angle of the camera for landing and ascent: www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a12/a12.orient.html
The Apollo color TV cameras were actually black and white monochrome cameras at their core. To transmit color images they had a spinning tri-color wheel in front of the B&W video tube. This split the incoming image up into three parts, one for each primary color - red, gree and blue. Another similar color wheel was required on earth spinning in front of a monochrome CRT to recolor the image. Part of the trick was to get both color wheels synchronized to spin at the same rate and in phase. This technique, which only required one video tube in the camera and one video channel, saved a lot of weight and cut down on the power consumption as opposed to the 3 signal system used for commercial color broadcasts at the time.
In your dreams sir, that antenna doesn’t have the power or direction to beam live or recorded video in 2019 never mind early 1970.
The consilience of evidence overwhelmingly proves otherwise.
So strange that we have geostationary sattelites that prove your words wrong;)
And yet you're managing to transmit clearly from planet Moron. Go figure!
And you should to.
Brilliant.
Where can I get that SHIRT! I want one... Seriusly great piece of art.
This is some out of space shirt right there!!
LOL
Love your show! Keep it up!

Again, another GREAT video from Curious Droid. I especially like the fact that it's mud in the face of Moon Hoaxers. THANKS AGAIN!!!
P.S. The shirt is GREAT! Don't wear the same OLD Polo shirts other narrators wear.
Are we still able to use this camera today?
Or has it overheated or had it's solor panel covered by dust
Were there colour cameras on the Apollo 17 mission?
And a camera tilts up (or down) and pans right and left.
Yes? Didn't you watch the video?
