Humor The human space travel hoax 1959-2014

[GLS]

So I has "surfing the web" (what happened to that expression?) and found this website that is filled with what I can only describe as comedy material (so I don't insult the author :lol.
Warning: it's a BIG page, and it's filled with good info.... NOT! :facepalm:

Usual nuttery... Still provides a good laugh... Especially when you get to the atomic bomb hoax page.

 

[MaverickSawyer]

Oh my god... I think we have a new king of the internet trolls here, folks. That's so full of it's hysterical...

 

[Ghostrider]

What a pile of crap.

Everybody knows that the human race does not exist. It's all a conspiracy. There is no way anything like those "humans" could exist or have ever existed.

Perhaps it's a new comedic form and this website is all made with the knowledge it would be funny to smart people.

Reason is simple; it is not possible to do land on and take off from the Moon and later make a re-entry and land on Earth using a capsule (or Shuttle) after any space trip - you are going too fast and will simply burn up as you cannot brake or reduce speed in the strong gravity field pulling you down.

Wait. That's why we have these things called heatshields... :rofl:

 

[Urwumpe]

Wait a minute... does he claim that Bielefeld really exists?

 

[jedidia]

Still provides a good laugh... Especially when you get to the atomic bomb hoax page.

It stops being funny at that point for me... it's just about half a step away from holocaust denial. Plus it pretty much assumes that the Japanese are the most stupid and incompetent people on earth. It's bloody insulting.

 

[SolarLiner]

The first line of the web page. I call Kugerblitz on it !

I don't even think this is a satirical site or anything. Just plain dumbness that forces people on agreeing with him instead of putting the facts and then conclude (which would be non-concluant in that case because people will eventually disagree and think space travel is a real thing.

Wait. That's why we have these things called heatshields... :rofl:

But if you use a heat shield then you would freeze....:tiphat:

 

[Fabri91]

Tripod! It's still around! I was looking for the "Best Viewed with Netscape Navigator" logo.

 

[RisingFury]

+1 to my post count, because I felt this web page is so important that I absolutely had to post about it here.

 

[Hielor]

I didn't make it very far. I stopped reading when he claimed that astronaut's shoes would melt on a 200 degree surface of the moon.

Because obviously humanity is incapable of making anything that can survive 200 degree or higher temperatures. Which is why we never cook anything.

Maybe someone should introduce the website admin to those people sure that the Illuminati are assembling legions of Satan on the dark side of the Moon in anticipation of the One World Order invasion?

I'd say it'd be a great study in Hegelian dialectics. I'd even offer up neolithic styled clubs so they can duke it out in full symbolic fury!

 

[Pioneer]

Just skimmed over the page. All I can conclude is that according to him, you can't do anything in space :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Reading this...thing really infuriates me. As a passionate observer of international spaceflight, I hope this is understandable.

But seriously, everything this guy says is invalid or plain stupid, to the point that I'm kinda unsure whether or not this guy is truly serious or just trying to be annoyingly humorous. Either way, the ignorance(?) of this guy's work angers me.

I mean, just look at this Stardust excerpt.

(1) It appears that the Stardust space ship managed to turn around 180° in space at 50 000 mph some way or another 2 January 2004 in order to return to Earth. There the 101 lb (45 kg) Sample Return capsule was ejected from Stardust at a speed of say 20.000 m/s at about 1:57 am New York time 15 January, 2006, when passing Earth at an unknown altitude/distance and landed at about 5.10 am at Dugway, Utah. How it - the 3 hrs re-entry (see below about re-entry) was done remains a complete mystery 2014. (2) NASA/JPL cannot explain how a 45 kg capsule without heat shield and parachutes can slow down from a speed of 20 000 m/s and land anywhere intact at zero speed on Earth. The capsule should have burn up when entering the atmosphere like a comet or crashed later. NASA/JPL is just making up fairy tales since 1960, which I explain below. (3) How much fuel Stardust used for the trip and how the turn was done also remain unknown. Reason - it was a typical NASA/JPL science fiction fairy tale.

1) It's called orbital mechanics. You can't do a "180" in space.

2) It had a heatshield AND a parachute. Who told you otherwise?

3) Actually, the guy might be somewhat right. NASA really didn't know how much fuel was really aboard the craft when it was decommissioned. Just fumes. But fuel WAS NOT used to make a NONEXISTENT turn.

...I think I need to calm down right now. I might be overreacting to this...

This is nothing but vapid foolishness written in an insulting and unintellectual style. This Björkman fellow seems rather immature.

I didn't make it very far. I stopped reading when he claimed that astronaut's shoes would melt on a 200 degree surface of the moon.

Because obviously humanity is incapable of making anything that can survive 200 degree or higher temperatures. Which is why we never cook anything.

That's around where I stopped, too. He mentioned the rubber tyres of the Lunar Rover. You know, the ones made of aluminium and titanium.

I did have a look at the About Us page, though, which was not what I was expecting. Why would a 'very popular' 'ship safety' company have such strong and dismally uninformed opinions on space travel and atomic weapons? The whole thing smells of trolls - and not particularly bright ones.

Reading this...thing really infuriates me. As a passionate observer of international spaceflight, I hope this is understandable.

I wouldn't bother being too offended by this. Why put any value on the opinion of someone who is clearly an idiot?

Actually, from the little I read, in space you can only accelerate, stuff burns and computers can't control anything. :rofl::facepalm:

 

[Kyle]

Well of course the Moon landings were a fake guys, everyone knows that, because the Moon doesn't even exist! Just a hologram, why else do you think we can see it in the day???

You have to look at this and laugh, otherwise you'll go nuts due to the density of crap in pages/videos/people like that.
