  • I think the most convincing evidence that we did go to the moon has to do with the dynamics of the moon dust in the original Apollo footage. If you look at the footage you’ll see the dust gets kicked up pretty high, higher than what you’d expect given Earth’s gravity, and it falls at a slower rate too.

    So the question is: if they faked this footage then how did they get the dust to behave like this?

    One possible explanation is that the footage was filmed underwater. The issue with this, though, is this is not at all how you’d expect dust to behave underwater. (you can go to the beach, kick up a bunch of sand underneath the water and see for yourself).

    Another possibility is suspension cables. I guess you could explain the astronauts perceived lower gravity with suspension cables, but for pieces of dust? You can’t have suspension cables for individual pieces of dust.

    So the simplest explanation is that this footage really was actually taken on a lower gravity environment, such as the moon.

    Either you are so dense that you genuinely cannot comprehend this very simple concept, or you are pretending to be dense so in order to avoid losing a debate on the internet. Either way you’re not someone worth talking to, so I’m going to end this conversation here.

    Hey thank you for this response. This topic often triggers a lot of emotion in people so when I talk about it I’m used to people responding with hostility. So it was very refreshing to get this message.

    I hope you find the Peter Singer article interesting. If you any thoughts or questions or what to discuss the article after, then I’m happy to chat. You take care as well.

    Not everyone literally needs to stop buying meat for there to be an effect. I was trying to illustrate how supply and demand works. The people eat meat and other animal products, the more animals will be killed to meet that demand. Do you disagree that by buying a burger you are contributing to that demand? Don’t try to evade the question, give me a yes or no answer.
