How many decades will it take without humans ever "returning" to the moon before you would acknowledge that it was likely a hoax? We have now reached the 50 year mark. So what will it be? 100 years? 200 years?

Wew
You know, it just occurred to me that, amazing accomplishments that they are, flying to the moon with shit strapped to the outside of our ride, any aliens would have been looking at us like:
There was one available compartment on the side of the LM, with a small, fixed cubic footage. The rover designers figured out how to fold up a very lightweight rover into the compartment. They went from zero to having the thing actually driven on the moon in about 18 months IIRC, give or take, its development was a very fast process. The Rover was key to the "J missions", the final Apollo missions (15, 16, 17) which focused on extended scientific exploration of the lunar surface. The rover allowed its two-man crew to travel as much as 4.7 miles (or 7.6 klicks) away from the LM. On each mission, the duo did three sorties or EVAs, striking out in three different directions away from the LM to see what they could find.
The rovers themselves never got official "nicknames", like other Apollo hardware (think of Eagle, Columbia etc). They were known simple as LRV-1, LRV-2 and LRV-3. On each mission, ONLY the commander drove, while the LMP (lunar module pilot) was a passenger. This means that only three men have ever driven on the moon (while six "rode" on the moon).
Yes. Every last detail of every last thing was meticulously engineered, soup to nuts. Well, except whatever broke on Apollo 13's service module, of course. The astronauts had a "walkback limit" which was monitored constantly by the ground crew. The Lunar Rover was basically "bonus" hardware, but very useful. If for whatever reason the rover failed, the astronauts were to drop everything and hop back at once. It got dinged up a few times, but it never killed. One major problem was that the astronauts kept wrecking the fenders with their bulky suits, and then the thing would kick up lots of dust.
When Cernan and Schmitt got out to Nansen Crater, Station 2, that's when they were 4.7 miles out. This is the furthest that human beings have ever gone away from a pressurizable spacecraft, with nothing but their space suits to protect them. They really couldn't go any further becuase of the constraint, but the rover had performed so well/been proven out that the ground let them hang out out there a few minutes longer. On the way back is when they discovered the famous "orange soil", glassy remnants of ancient volcanic activity.
Yes and no, for the purposes of record distinction, the suit itself (in Apollo's case) doesn't have meaningful propulsion. (look at the astronaut propulsion article IIRC for instances of little guns and shit that they'd use, the MMU, SAFER, etc). Astronauts themselves refer to their suits as "little spacecrafts", but this is an informal usage. There's basically two senses going on here, the thing that contains a human sustaining human life, and a vehicle which has propulsion. These two senses are at cross-purposes here. When Rusty Schweickart went EVA on Apollo 9, he was regarded as a third object, and briefly referred to as "red rover", since he was a ginger. A spacecraft is either some probe, or a vehicle that you can get in, but the notion of an astronaut in his suit is usually excluded from the discussion, despite the above. There's a fun debate to be had here about multiple angles.
Oh, but once the Nixon administration ended suddenly we don't wanna go back there anymore. Do science gays really?

I'm a space nerd but even I can admit that it was a prestige project during peak boomer largesse/Pax Americana. It's just rocks, if you can't establish some sort of outpost and keep it somewhat occupied then you haven't moved forward. The other step forward is more detailed exploration of the far side, and the Chinese are working on that. The Sea of Tranquility was chosen as the first spot because it's very close to the "center" of the near side, the bit closest to us. When Apollo 10 did its orbits, they took extensive photography during their orbits to model the approach. I found this really cool book in the college library once with big fold-out maps showing the camera trackings over this "strip" that they would orbit repeatedly.
>We know exactly how it was built, moron
Really? They lost everything if they ever HAD anything to begin with, and it was a joke anyway. And he dude says "Its a painful process to build it back again"
These morons are blowing smoke up your ass and you're loving it lol. They are saying we haven't even been to the moon and can't get past the van allen belts now. They know no one cares enough to dig into their mishaps so they just keep chugging along, wasting what, 60 million dollars a day, on nothing. Because YOU CANNOT GO TO THE MOON! Was a damn set with props and a poorly lit one at that. They can't even keep their stories straight with if there were stars or not. The most we can get is high altitude balloon height maybe and the pics from those are the same fricking height as from the supposed ISS (if they even show anything and the clouds never fricking move).
We are a closed system, deal with it.

And shame you can't spend less than 8 mins of your life to see NASA gays spewing lies. I dont care, if you want to keep on being fooled it is absolutely your choice, but if you dont trust government then you shouldn't trust nasa.
Its the same irritation I feel at people falling for covid shit and now monkeypox shit, and you can see behind the curtain and so badly just want to help people see the truth as well. Don't take it personally dude, been a long ass day and I apologize if I was rude about it. That's all I'm done. Have a good one.
They literally tied a string to the camera and attached it to the ascent module. When they were in lunar orbit, they reeled in the camera. That's how they got the film back to Earth.
This is a very subtle troll becasue it's mixing a lie with the truth. On the J-missions, the Command Module pilot (CMP) did in fact perform one brief EVA to retrieve some film from the exterior of the Command/Service module, but this was for lunar orbit photography, and not the cheeky claim that anon just made here. And these EVAs were performed in deep space, after they left lunar orbit. They were the only deep space EVAs in history, performed far away from any planetary body. A nice consolation prize for the later CMPs, who didn't get the glory of walking on the moon. Ron Evans thus performed the last EVA of the Apollo program (Skylab technically doesn't count as part of the program, although it used the same hardware).
Yeah. I haven't listened to the transcripts in detail but Al Worden, Ken Mattingly and Ron Evans all had a very unique view that no one else has ever experienced (except for their LMPs a bit, who stayed ready at the hatch and went "SEVA", that is, stand-up eva, while the CMP was point and fully outside the craft. Stand-up EVA is when you just poke around by the hatch, but you don't fully, physically exit the spacecraft. They still count as spacewalks because obviously you have to pressurize, do safety checks, etc.) You're out there in this black inky void and you see a rather large, but not super-large Moon, and a kinda-big, but not super big Earth. Very weird, I wish they would've talked about that more.
When Evans was getting ready to go out, commander Cernan stayed inside and said something like "Be careful out there, Ron, we like you a lot and we don't want to lose you."
The Camera was placed there by the crew and then set up, it records then sends the recording to the ship. The camera is left behind.
Take a L, you could of figured this out.
With a very nervous camera operator back on Earth.
It was generated by farting on a canvas
a human would have done a better job keeping it in frame
You mean you can't think how some of the greatest scientist can program a simple computer to control a mechanism to operate at an exact time following an object that has to take an exact trajectory at a an exact acceleration.
>computers that ran on tape
Dos still took 5 minutes to load on a 486 in the 90's
Didn't they often reprogram their guidance computers inflight?
>NASA said pigs can fly so it must be true
Want to know how I can tell you've not been around in the 90s?
data storage was on tape
vacuum tubes and semiconductors were already in use
too lazy to look up specifics for apollo 11 though

No it fricking didn't.
It was manually operated. The guy had to account for delay of signal.

yep
Camera on the rover was on a remotely controlled gimbal and had it's own dish.
How did the fit that giant rover in the space ship?
It folded up
It folded up a bit to fit the dimensions of the LEM but for the most part it was just came attached to the side.
You know, it just occurred to me that, amazing accomplishments that they are, flying to the moon with shit strapped to the outside of our ride, any aliens would have been looking at us like:

riiiiiiiiiiiight. Why did they even send people if they had remote rovers? kek
they slipped some passer-by ayy a fiver.

Yes, we did so land on the Moon. Start reading this non-pornographic website with a suggestive name:
http://onebigmonkey.com/
I've always wondered if anyone's ever suffered vertigo on an EVA, or if you're just too high for our monkey brains to fully register how high you are.
How did they get the tape back to earth? That's always been my big question
They just asked it politely
Remote controlled cannon aimed at earth
And we just left this cannon up there for moonmen to use as they please!?
The Camera was placed there by the crew and then set up, it records then sends the recording to the ship. The camera is left behind.
