No, the van Allen radiation belts weren't deal breakers for the Apollo astronauts. They really did go to the Moon. Want weekly Vintage Space ? Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE! www.youtube.com/channel/UCw95T_TgbGHhTml4xZ9yIqg

Look at the eentsy weentsy wobbly piece of equipment that blasted ferociously off from the moon please

And tell us why there are no jets of flame or exhaust under it. Do you honestly think it connected with the rocket orbiting earth at 4000 mph thru space for the return trip?

No oxygen on the moon :)

if there is no oxygen then there can be no combustion thus no thrust.

Two places where rocket motors can't functtion: under water and in a vacuum. All they had was compressed air and momentum. I don't think they've been to the moon/Levan.

Rockets can certainly work in a vacuum. Jet's cannot as they burn oxygen in the environment, but rockets mix both oxygen and fuel, both stored on board, to produce the thrust. In the vacuum of space, rockets are more efficient as there is no aerodynamic drag on the ship, which factors in favor of the lunar modules lift-off from the moon surface.

All they had was compressed air and momentum.

To be exact, not "compressed air" but compressed oxygen. Air is only about 20% oxygen, with most of it nitrogen. For space flight, they use pure oxygen, and the Apollo missions used oxygen so compressed it was a liquid, not a gas. And of course, it was more than oxygen but fuel as well.

I've seen tests. Rockets can barely fizzle in a vacuum before going out.

I still don't see how they could be guided thru space where there's nothing to push against. A paddle wheeler pushes water, an airplane air etc. I don't see how any earthly craft can travel to another heavenly body in the time alleged -- Pluto is 4598146822 miles from here, for crying out loud!

But I think if we all focus on the ridiculous puniness of the coffee can in which the astronots supposedly returned to earth from the moon, it answers "aye double-ell all" as Bro. Roloff used to say.

The fact that people were ever duped by this nonsense, much less for half a century, much less in the most advanced/educated/"enlightened" societies of all time, is not good.

Rocket propulsion and a riverboat paddle wheel operate on different principles. A rocket's thrust comes from its ejecting exhaust gas, which has mass, and as the rocket pushes against the gas the gas pushes back against the rocket in accordance with Newton's Third Law of Motion.

Thanks. How much fuel does it take to send a present probe 4,598,146,822 miles to Pluto? I realize it only has to point it in a direction and it keeps going thither TFN, but I find it hard to believe present tech is capable of doing this across such distances in even the decade claimed for the Pluto probe. Do you? It's over a million miles a day.

Space is full of projectiles. A paint chip damaged the ISS, and "anything larger than 10 cm could shatter a satellite or spacecraft into pieces"
