The debate about the Moon Landings. By Kenneth Lafler

A note from the Author-

I would like to say that I truly hope the NASA-Apollo Program was successful being one of Mankind's greatest achievements. But there are incident after incident that questions if this was possible at all.

The NASA Program was actually started in Germany during World War Two. Under the direction of the rocket development genius, Werner Von Braun, the V-1 and V-2 missiles were designed and produced in massive number's. The V-1 was the first cruise missile to be developed. The Saturn Five Rocket was basically a Multi-Stage V-2. The V-2 was also the first man made object to break the sound barrier.

Under a United States Program called Operation Paper Clip, Nazi scientists were brought to the United States to conduct work on the U.S. space program.

The first questionable fact is the passing through the Van Allen Radiation Belts first discovered by James Van Allen in 1958. The Van Allen Belts are located in a high Earth orbit, most other craft fly in a low Earth orbit avoiding this area of space. Test animals sent into space through the Van Allen Belts have generally returned deceased.

The Belts are saturated with radiation. Would it be possible for an Astronaut to pass through this area and not be exposed to high doses. Some nuclear experts feel it would take a lead shielding six feet thick to protect a person.

The next anomaly - The lack of dust on the landing pods. This is strange in and of it's self. The LEM used a single engine with 30,000 pounds of thrust. Even if it had landed on a city street, there still would have been an enormous amount of dust. Yet the landing gear is absolutely clean as if some one had used a cleaning cloth. Obviously the crew had no time for this and the landing pod was to be discarded anyway.

When asked to see footage from the moon today,Nasa claims that they are unable to view the moon with the telescopes in use today, and are unable to see the moons surface. This also is peculiar. The hubble telescope is able to view galaxies 20 light years away, but they are unable to view the moons surface? Satellites are able to view the Earth's surface in precise detail and are able to actually see the name on one's employee badge.

The next anomaly - Multiple Light Sources. In space there is only one light source in this Solar System - The Sun. In the lunar photography, the light appears to be coming in at different angles. If taken on the moon the angles would be in perpendicular alignments. Instead the lines intersect one another.

The LEM or Lunar Module- About three months before the lunar landing, the Lunar Module was on a test run with Neil Armstrong at the controls. The vehicle was only able to stay air bore for a few minutes and suddenly crashed. Some aerospace experts feel that the craft was so unstable that the a minor change in the load factor would have sent the LEM into a spin.



The outer skin of the Module was also questionable. Being only about the thickness of tin foil, could this ship have survived the radiation of space?

The United States flag waving - This is another point of question. The moon has almost no atmosphere so there are no weather patterns. This would make it impossible for any movement due to wind. The flag most likely would have just remained motionless.

The film footage of the Astronauts walking on the moon is questionable also.
If the speed of the film is increased it appears as if they are walking in Earth gravity.

The Gus Grissom accident is also strange. Grissom had openly criticized NASA and the space program, claiming the program was dangerous. Grissom died several weeks later in the Apollo one accident where the cabin was pressurized with pure oxygen. The ensuing fire killed all three Astronauts.

At least ten other Astronauts died under mysterious circumstances.

Hopefully the Apollo Program was a success but there are enough questions to a least make one wonder.
