Moon Landing Video!
Added 2016-02-07 04:10:19 +0000 UTCHey Guys!
As promised, I think this was the video I watched about it. There are a few more that I perused, but this one is the most professional.
I'd love to see what you guys think, specifically!
I will also have a new Early Access video up by tomorrow! :)
I LOVE YOU! <3

Thank you so much, this was an interesting read. I'm really interested in watching more videos now, too, that aren't fluffed up for BBC. :) I don't know what I think now!

But the ones they did actually do. So the Van Allen radiation belt, is a real thing but not portrayed correctly in the video. At the speed the Apollo missions are going at the trip through them will take about 10 minutes for the inner and about 90minutes for the outer to pass through. The film portrays it like it would instantly fry any human passing through it, which is not the case. James van Allen, the discoverer of the belts said it would not make manned missions impossible. With protection from the space craft, passing through gives you about the same radiation dose as a 3 years on earth or a year working in the nuclear field. I believe a lot of astronauts including the Apollo ones suffer from conditions constant with low level radiation exposure in their later lives. The lack of stars I think is my fave. So on Earth during the day the Sun blocks out the stars from being visible, why isn’t it the same on the moon during the lunar day when the Apollo astronauts were there? Oh wait, it is the same and you see no stars under a normal picture. If you do a slow exposure you see stars. Also look at any normal video or picture of any space flight, you don’t see stars. The shadow pointing the wrong way according to the film is best explained by the mythbusters episode about it, its on youtube. Provides a really nice visualization of how small hills on the surface provide different angled shadows. The flag issue is again what you would expect held by a frame but only on the top in a vacuum. Any vibration is going to last along time due to no resistance and the rippled effect is caused due to the flag being folded up for storage. (They did not take an iron with them) The others I’ll do another time. Hope this helps.
