I HEARD on C2C a few nights ago this guy who claims AMERICA did not go to the
Moon in 1969 or in any of the other 6 times we said we did. He claims that we could
not have sent men through the Van Allen radiation belt that surrounds the Earth and
survive the 20,000 mile thick belt. Most scientists say that as the Apollo Moon Ship
is traveling at around 25,000 miles an hour the Astronauts did not spend enough time
in the area to bother them and the flight capsule offers some protection anyway.
My main reason to know that we did go to the Moon 6 times is that the Russians were
in the race to the Moon and wanted to beat us to claim themselves winner. THEY were watching
our every move and would have screamed to every News paper and radio and TV news
if they had not seen and followed the Americans to the Moon with their Radar and their
telescopes. Everyone knew we went to the MOON except a few jerks who wanted to
cause trouble and were not very smart in science and physics.
This guy who was on the radio had a bunch of other ideas that have all been talked
about and explained away years ago. Why no stars appeared in the NASA Moon photos and why the American flag appears to wave on a airless Moon? All too easy
if you know what happened. Buzz Aldrin and Armstrong did all they said they did.
One thing that I would like to see happen is to have Armstrong and Aldrin on 60 Minutes for a 30 minute interview and have them talk about their trip and their
exploring where no one had gone before.
