The faking of moon landings by NASA...the truth!!
...got hold of this link on net that debunks all the conspiracy
theories that said that NASA faked the Apollo landings on moon. It was
in college when i had watched the FOX channel programming videos that
my frens had so fondly written on CDs (its obviously so cool to have
such 'knowledgable' stuff with u). I was very much influenced by the
claims and eveidences that the program gave that i still remember all
the details of each evidence produced by them. Back then, i got such
disillusiond by all those science ppl. As claimed in the program, the
fake landings were attributed to NASA's attempt to save face in a
bitter cold-war with the USSR. the perfect case of sciemce corrupted
by politics and how we love to hate the politicians, whether in hawda
or in houston...so, NASA were made to look as any fallible agency that
works according to whims and fancies of US government. Of course, it
might be something like that, but i believe that there is respect
around the world of NASA's researches and thus, in those times it was
a shock for me.
then i came across this link...
bad astronomy
All the evidences so fresh im my mind were taken one by one and
shredded in pieces by facts. Now, i think that how fallible are we to
media, espl. aspects where our knowledge is limited. Its the things
that we want to believe and we suspect how it was made possible and
then somebody brings some evidences to debunk the claim and we tend to
believe the challeger...challenger in most cases being the
sensationalists!!!
I was shocked (and in some ways relieved to think that NASA is not
that ahead of our own space research...atleast we dont fake things)
but today i was thrilled after going thru the facts that NASA might
have actually pulled that off...and if they can do it, we can also do
it some day!!
Hail the new spirit of humanity inside me...NASA-ISRO bhai-bhai...!!!
Some day our own chandrayaan is gonna pierce the 'deadly' Van Helen
belts and land on the moon...India's moon mission
