New Australian footage of Neil Armstrong's moon walk
Tue Sep 28, 5:46 am ET
SYDNEY (AFP) – Long-lost footage of Neil Armstrong descending the ladder of the Apollo 11 lunar module will be screened in public for the first time in Sydney next week, a prominent astronomer told AFP.
The footage runs for a few minutes and is considered to be some of the best footage of the historic 1969 moonwalk <!-- s8-) -->8-)<!-- s8-) --> , but the film was lost <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: --> in archives for many years and was badly damaged when found, said John Sarkissian.
It depicts the first few minutes of Armstrong's descent which was recorded in Australia as NASA was still scrambling for a signal, showing a far clearer image than was initially screened worldwide.
Telescopes in remote Australia played a key role in the Apollo 11 mission, including provision of the television signal, after Armstrong decided to attempt the moonwalk early, putting the United States just beyond the horizon.
Sarkissian -- historian and astronomer in charge of the Australian side of the recordings restoration project -- said the unseen minutes were the "best quality of Armstrong descending the ladder."
"NASA were using the Goldstone (California) station signal, which had its settings wrong, but in the signals being received by the Australian stations you can actually see Armstrong."
"In what people have seen before you can barely see Armstrong at all, you can see something black -- that was his leg."
The segment which runs for "just a few minutes" will be screened at the awards night of Australian Geographic magazine next Wednesday, at which Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin will be the chief guest.
"When we heard Buzz was going to be the guest of honour we thought 'what a great opportunity'," Sarkissian said.
The Armstrong footage, which has only previously been seen by Apollo veterans and other members of the astronomy community, would form part of a highlights reel of restored, digitised moonwalk footage at the awards, he added.
There was a "long detective story" involved in the search for the footage and Sarkissian said it took painstaking frame by frame work to shift the material from the deteriorating black and white film to digitial format.
"It was very damaged tape as well, that segment of Armstrong at the beginning," he said.
Digitising the recording was "significant in the space flight history context" allowing it to be preserved and copied for future generations <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: --> , said Sarkissian.
Ok ,so this beeing said my first question here is: Have they ever been on the moon in the first place????? Lol,I mean how stupid they think that we are to believe that.
SERENITY what do you think about this?????
Thank you.
LOVE and blessing!!!

I recommend this documentary, this is part 1, other parts available on youtube:

He never walked on the moon. There are many documentaries on this subject that convinced me. NASA must have seen they made lots of mistakes with the footage, hence it getting lost and reappeared damaged. I wonder what this renewed footage will show.
Here is the complete documentary about one of the biggest hoaxes ever. One might wonder what has ever been true...

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
I do hope one day that some people will attempt to answer our questions and proof about the MJ hoax too! Though I imagine they will come off as unconvincing as NASA do in this documentary! <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->
This reminds me of MJ's song "HIStory". At the beginning, voices start to recite random dates and events in history. I guess I always figured they were random, but were they? I seem to remember walking on the moon as one of the dates mentioned. Am I right? I wonder if all the events mentioned are specifically chosen in that song... are they all of false happenings? Hoaxes? Hmm...

I've read that throughout the history of mankind, political and religious leaders, royalty, and those with power have always kept one standard of knowledge for the elite, and another lower standard for the masses. Even Jesus said that the multitude received mysterious parables but his disciples would receive understandable truth. There is a term called Machiavellian, defined here.
Here it is.....never mind it was Randy P.

Haven't anyone else than me seen this new T-shirt from SOLID JEANS with the Text:
Moonwalk
19 HOAX 69
Of the century......
...and the truth will be
Revealed
??
I live In a small town in Sweden an we have this t-shirth in our little store.
Of course I tought of Michael right away, and I still do but I think we have 2 Moonwalk Hoaxe's, if
you know what I mean?
Can't find the picture of it anywere on the internet......
HELLO!!
Thank you very much for the videos Souza!!!
I dont really know what has ever been true but its something fishy about this Moon landing <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? --> .
At the end of september I found out another "intresting " <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: --> article about a Goldilocks planet just like earth , <!-- s:roll: -->:roll:<!-- s:roll: --> :
Could 'Goldilocks' planet be just right for life?
Wed Sep 29, 7:19 pm ET
WASHINGTON – Astronomers say they have for the first time spotted a planet beyond our own in what is sometimes called the Goldilocks zone for life: Not too hot, not too cold. Juuuust right.
Not too far from its star, not too close. So it could contain liquid water. The planet itself is neither too big nor too small for the proper surface, gravity and atmosphere.
It's just right. Just like Earth.
"This really is the first Goldilocks planet," said co-discoverer R. Paul Butler of the Carnegie Institution of Washington.
[Related: Seven best places to sleep under the stars]
The new planet sits smack in the middle of what astronomers refer to as the habitable zone, unlike any of the nearly 500 other planets astronomers have found outside our solar system. And it is in our galactic neighborhood, suggesting that plenty of Earth-like planets circle other stars.
Finding a planet that could potentially support life is a major step toward answering the timeless question: Are we alone?
Scientists have jumped the gun before on proclaiming that planets outside our solar system were habitable only to have them turn out to be not quite so conducive to life. But this one is so clearly in the right zone that five outside astronomers told The Associated Press it seems to be the real thing.
"This is the first one I'm truly excited about," said Penn State University's Jim Kasting. He said this planet is a "pretty prime candidate" for harboring life.
Life on other planets doesn't mean E.T. Even a simple single-cell bacteria or the equivalent of shower mold would shake perceptions about the uniqueness of life on Earth.
But there are still many unanswered questions about this strange planet. It is about three times the mass of Earth, slightly larger in width and much closer to its star — 14 million miles away versus 93 million. It's so close to its version of the sun that it orbits every 37 days. And it doesn't rotate much, so one side is almost always bright, the other dark.
Temperatures can be as hot as 160 degrees or as frigid as 25 degrees below zero, but in between — in the land of constant sunrise — it would be "shirt-sleeve weather," said co-discoverer Steven Vogt of the University of California at Santa Cruz.
It's unknown whether water actually exists on the planet, and what kind of atmosphere it has. But because conditions are ideal for liquid water, and because there always seems to be life on Earth where there is water, Vogt believes "that chances for life on this planet are 100 percent."
The astronomers' findings are being published in Astrophysical Journal and were announced by the National Science Foundation on Wednesday.
The planet circles a star called Gliese 581. It's about 120 trillion miles away, so it would take several generations for a spaceship to get there. It may seem like a long distance, but in the scheme of the vast universe, this planet is "like right in our face, right next door to us," Vogt said in an interview.
That close proximity and the way it was found so early in astronomers' search for habitable planets hints to scientists that planets like Earth are probably not that rare.
Vogt and Butler ran some calculations, with giant fudge factors built in, and figured that as much as one out of five to 10 stars in the universe have planets that are Earth-sized and in the habitable zone.
With an estimated 200 billion stars in the universe, that means maybe 40 billion planets that have the potential for life, Vogt said. However, Ohio State University's Scott Gaudi cautioned that is too speculative about how common these planets are.
Vogt and Butler used ground-based telescopes to track the star's precise movements over 11 years and watch for wobbles that indicate planets are circling it. The newly discovered planet is actually the sixth found circling Gliese 581. Two looked promising for habitability for a while, another turned out to be too hot and the fifth is likely too cold. This sixth one bracketed right in the sweet spot in between, Vogt said.
With the star designated "a," its sixth planet is called Gliese 581g.
"It's not a very interesting name and it's a beautiful planet," Vogt said. Unofficially, he's named it after his wife: "I call it Zarmina's World."
The star Gliese 581 is a dwarf, about one-third the strength of our sun. Because of that, it can't be seen without a telescope from Earth, although it is in the Libra constellation, Vogt said.
But if you were standing on this new planet, you could easily see our sun, Butler said.
The low-energy dwarf star will live on for billions of years, much longer than our sun, he said. And that just increases the likelihood of life developing on the planet, the discoverers said.
"It's pretty hard to stop life once you give it the right conditions," Vogt said.

Love you all!!!!
On the subject of the moon landing, I think what convinces me most about the hoax is the amount of radiation and the tremendous variation of temperature. Five years ago, I participated in a conference on a possible return to the moon. It was obvious that "returning" to the moon was no easy task, including the problem of making a soft landing. The scepticism regarding the first landing was barely hidden. Why would it be so difficult to return to the moon if we had done it the first time with 1960s technology? And remember we did not have computer chips at the time. Everything was done with huge main frame computers.
The moon landing was the culmination of a decade filled with deceit and murder. I was a child during those times and I can tell you that we were terrified of an atomic bomb attack. I remember we had to practice "duck and cover" drills during kindergarten. John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and Robert F. Kennedy were killed under very mysterious circumstances. Ted Kennedy almost died in an airplane crash. Then we were involved in the Vietnam War.
Fast forward to 9/11. What really happened? Those of us who want to know the truth are silenced. We are told we are nuts, crackpots, etc. People become angry with us (same reaction I get when I tell them I don't believe in the moon landing). Another war, actually two wars this time.
Fast forward to June 25, 2009. Michael Jackson, the world's most famous entertainer, suddenly dies from an overdose of a mysterious substance, "propofol". Despite the fact we have investigated even the smallest bit of information we are told we are crackpots, nuts, crazy, etc. The latest criticism comes from a so-called MJ supporter--Charles Thomson. We are told that Michael is an addict, a drunk, the worst things imaginable.
Thank you Mo and Souza for giving us this opportunity to speak up for a person who was mistreated during his life. A person with great talent, innocence and a good heart who was going to blow the whistle on someone or something, just like Virgil Grissom.
How long will it take until a conspiracy theory video hits mainstream media?
I guess Mom was right...the footage really was a HOAX. <!-- s:( -->:(<!-- s:( -->
.....
But this show actually convinced me. This is strong evidence and the NASA guy has no counter argument that's credible or even plausible at all. By the time they get to the completely irrefutable proof that the photos are fake he resorts to the tired old line, "the conspiracy theory is wrong because... well because it's crazy to think that". Great, thanks NASA guy, so helpful to put my mind at ease.
Yes. This is the only reason remaining to believe that we put men on the moon. Because it's crazy to think that a hoax could be conducted on a global scale and perpetuated as fact for decades. It's crazy to think that what we see on TV and is written in our history books ISN'T TRUE.
For the first time, we are all 100% of the generation who was raised entirely FROM BIRTH with a TV in the home. That's the first time the mass media has had a lifelong effect on the ENTIRE populous. Think about it. Subliminal messages flashed on the screen were discovered to have extremely effective mind control properties as early as the 1950's. Within 5 years of TV's conception someone figured out how to use it to control the minds (no BS!) of all who watch the screen. These subliminal messages proved to be SO effective at controlling viewers' behavior so completely against the will of the watcher that their use was banned by congress almost immediately. Problem is, you just have to trust that there isn't a similar yet different method that exists that isn't being utilized. Television by definition, pictures on a screen flashed at high frequencies, repeating of the same clips over and over combined with catchy musical tunes and phrases, may be a subliminal message system that is so prevalent and accepted in our culture that we overlook it's power to influence.
Ok I'm totally back to crazy land now. Wonderful.
I'm sort of torn on the moon hoax. My son was criticizing me the other day for buying into it, because he said of the laser reflectors that have been placed on the moon that give scientists here info. So here's wiki on that.
<!-- m -->http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Lase ... experiment<!-- m --> It says at the end, Could this somehow be false too? <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? -->
I try to stream it, but don't know if it works. It is up on ARTE till wednesday.

1969 Moon hoax is verified by D. Rumsfeld + H. Kissinger !!! .
2001 Space Odysee by S. Kubrik is the inspiration.
(we know about Scream and it's connection to 2001 Space Odysee, spaceship 2040 on History tour ..)
Greatest Hoax of human mankind. All Hollywood. History in the MIX!

Dark Side of the Moon (mockumentary)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
This article is about the mockumentary. For other meanings of "Dark Side of the Moon", see Dark Side of the Moon (disambiguation)
Dark Side of the Moon is a French mockumentary by director William Karel which originally aired on Arte in 2002 with the title Opération Lune. The basic premise for the film is the theory that the television footage from the Apollo 11 Moon landing was faked and actually recorded in a studio by the CIA with help from director Stanley Kubrick. It features some surprising guest appearances, most notably by Donald Rumsfeld, Dr. Henry Kissinger, Alexander Haig, Vernon Walters, Buzz Aldrin and Stanley Kubrick's widow, Christiane Kubrick.

[edit] Plot summary
The tone of the "documentary" begins with low key revelations of NASA working closely with Hollywood at the time of the Moon landings. Over the course of the tale, Karel postulates that not only did Kubrick help the USA fake the moon landings but that he was eventually killed by the CIA to cover up the truth. First hand testimony backing these claims come from Rumsfeld and Dr. Kissinger seems to lend credence to the story.
It is finally revealed that this is a mockumentary as the end credits roll over a montage of blooper reels, with the main participants laughing over the absurdity of their lines or questioning if particular ones would give the joke away too soon. Besides being a comedic documentary, it is also an exercise in Jean Baudrillard's theories of hyperreality. In a 2004 interview, the director was asked why he would elect to make a film "closer to a comedy than a serious film"; Karel replied that in the wake of having made serious documentaries, the objective was "de faire un film drôle" (to make a funny film).[1]
Australian broadcaster SBS television aired the film on April 1 as an April fools' joke, and again on 17 November 2008 as part of Kubrick week. It was aired again on 27 July 2009, perhaps to coincide with the anniversary of the moon landing.
Several of the fictitious interviewees, such as Dave Bowman, Jack Torrance, and Dimitri Muffley are named after characters from movies directed by Kubrick. There are also references to films by Alfred Hitchcock, as both Eve Kendall and George Kaplan are character names in North by Northwest, and Ambrose Chapel is a location in the 1956 remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much.
The soundtrack also includes the song "The American Dream" from Wag the Dog by Barry Levinson, a fiction feature about a secretly government-commissioned Hollywood production of a fake war.
