Okay Moon Landings and Flat earth as so many keep bringing it up. so many will quote all the scientific woo woo stuff at you but I've learned over the years that keeping things basic is better
The official NASA photo of earth
So this was from Apollo 11 1969 Yet no photo's of Earth from Moonlanding???
To me if I was going for a vacation to the moon, there would be a few very important photo's, Me on the Moon, Me on the Moon with Earth in background and some proper photo's of Earth. another thing is moon is around 4x smaller than earth so if your near the moon wouldn't earth look 4x bigger than the moon does from earth?
It's interesting they landed on the side of the moon facing earth yet photo is over horizon of the moon, which side of moon they take off from?
I asked someone how they packed the moon buggy, sorry LRV Lunar rover vehicle in that tiny space craft and they said it was a kit, they built it when they landed


I also asked about the moon boot soul in museum that doesn't match the foot prints on the moon, they said they had boot covers on the moon boots
and the LRV was Batter powered, good technology they had in 1969 battery wise, Power was provided by
two 36-volt silver-zinc potassium hydroxide non-rechargeable batteries developed by Eagle-Picher with a charge capacity of 121 A·h each (a total of 242 A·h), yielding a range of 57 miles (92 km).
How Heavy was the LRV
460 pounds
Built by Boeing and General Motors for the last three missions of the Apollo program, the moon buggy is fantastically lightweight compared to modern electric vehicles, clocking in at just
460 pounds (210 kg) Earth weight (this translates to 77 pounds, or 35 kg, once on the moon).
And yet there was intense debate within NASA about whether a television camera should be carried in Apollo 11’s Lunar Module, as it would add weight to the spacecraft. Eventually, a black-and-white Westinghouse camera with a 16mm lens was approved. Deployment of a TV camera to transmit signals to Earth became one of the additional flight objectives of the mission. But we got a 210kg Dunebuggy on it
How did the astronauts stay on the Moon without gravity?
There is gravity on the Moon. It's 1/6 of that at the surface of the Earth, but what goes up generally comes down. The astronauts
wore heavy, with oxygen tanks and other equipment, which helped keep them on the ground. They developed a sort of hopping from foot to foot gait, or kangaroo jumping.
Good job the LRV was lightweight then, It stuck to the moon surface like a Dune buggy in the Desert
How many moon buggies have been left on the Moon?
Three
Three were transported to and left on the Moon via the Apollo 15, 16, and 17 missions (LRV-1 to 3), with the fourth (LRV-4) used for spare parts for the first three following the cancellation of Apollo 18. The rover used on Apollo 15 was left at Hadley-Apennine (26.10°N 3.65°E ).
Yeah why bother taking new batteries and using the one already there when you can take a whole new one each time instead of other stuff

Sounds like they should be using these in EV cars instead the HEAVY Modern Firecracker ones
I'd like one of these Nikon Camera's
If i'm talking bollox, feel free to correct me
It's all good fun and people need to laugh more at it all I think
