Space Travel

[Declan]

We are entering a great leap forward in knowledge with the recent launch of The Webb Telescope on December 25 2021. Today it reached it's permanent location about 1 million miles from Earth. This location is known as Lagrange 2 and it is important because the gravitational forces balance there and in effect it floats in that location. This telescope is supposedly one hundred times more powerful that Hubble which was put up 30 years ago. It will take about 4 months now to calibrate it's instruments. Because it sees further, it will be able to see further back in time because the images from 13 billion light years away, and obviously from events that happened 13 billion years ago.

 

[Declan]

Most all the technical issues have been completed successfully and it is in location. It will be a few months yet until functioning but hard 9, I believe 5.

It is looking out and away so it will not have images of earth moon and inner planets etc.
So we wait.

A few months yet before it is calibrated and ready.

Yes, no snags so far though. And obviously it can't be repaired (like Hubble)

 

[Declan]

The unfolding of the wings was the last tricky part I believe.
Maybe if it delivers on the 100 times improvement over Hubble, it will detect possible inhabitable planets.

Some conspiracy theorists believe a faked alien encounter is being lined up to bamboozle the fools.

Well Hubble's problem was only discovered after it started it eh, telescoping

No reason to believe that a mistake like that will be made again though..

Unhabitable? Or Little Green Men?

Inhabitable is a bit like irregardless

Planets capable of sustaining life as we know it.

Yeah, I know what you meant..

Nobody has landed on the Moon. I am amazed that anyone believes the fairytale.
Next month the US sends up Artimus 1 and they will try to fly it around the Moon. We shall see.

In July the Russians attempt to actually land a craft on the Moon. Something we are told they did with ease almost 60 years ago.

In August the Indians will attempt for the 2nd time to softly land a craft..


This is the true start of Space exploration.

A manned flyby is planned for 2024.

What utter nonsense. It was a monumental effort.

Dan, you think it's easier to go to Mars than the Moon, that is a verifiable fact. You should really stop talking crap about this.

Well i dunno whether they did or not, but how come they 'lost' the technology? Just a few short decades ago we had the Concorde. You could fly to America in a couple of hours. Now that is gone. Some technologies are being developed yes, but not necessarily any that will benefit mankind in general.

No. I said it is easier to land on Mars than the moon because it has an atmosphere

 

[Deleted member 122]

It doesn't have an atmosphere worth talking about (in terms of a landing)

This has been explained to you, at length, Dan.

 

[Declan]

It does not matter. It an atmosphere is one fifth, just use a parachute five times greater.

We will see if the Indian craft can make it ths July.

 

[Declan]

They have flown helicopters on it. There are storms on it,

Electricy lost this argument before on the other site and refuses to admit it.

 

[Deleted member 122]

It does not matter. It an atmosphere is one fifth

Try one hundredth

 

[Declan]

Try one hundredth

it does not matter, there is an atmosphere. And supposedly they can change it in time as well. But July is the next test.

 

[Deleted member 122]

it does not matter, there is an atmosphere.

It doesn't matter for a manned lander

 

[Deleted member 122]

Some atmosphere is better than none so long as it is not toxic. It creates pressure on any capsule to allow oxygen rich nitrogen to fill it

The Martian atmosphere is almost all carbon dioxide

The only point I've ever made about this, is that a manned lander won't be able to make use of parachutes/the atmosphere

The video says they will use the atmosphere, lol.

No it doesn't

Learn to lose.

"It would be easier to land humans on Mars than the Moon.. Because Mars has an atmosphere." - Declan

lol

 

[Declan]

Your own video pisted describes describes them using the atmosphere. You are arguing my side with your vudeo. GRMA.

 

[Deleted member 122]

Not at all, Dan

I'm afraid you've lost, once again

To remind everyone - "It would be easier to land (humans) on Mars than the Moon." - Dan

That is utter nonsense

Learn to lose

 

[Declan]

We shall see about that.neither has been done so far.
Your vdeo says that they will use the atmosphere on Mars

 

[Declan]

There is a rocket part about to crash into the moon. Supposedly Chinese debris from years ago. How can it get out of earth orbit and get to the moon???

 

[Declan]

Off the top of my head. the Chinese sent a lander which did land and sent back good photos. It would have been brought up by a
main craft and it would undock from it. It is probably a piece of that which is dropping out of orbit and will crash land on the moon.

It makes sense to me.

I dont think so, it was for earth orbit

 

[Declan]

There would want to be a huge space ship built in Space where permanent living is possible. It could doddle off to Mars in two years.

My suspicion is that the radiation is too severe for anything more than a few days.

I remember in about 1975 reading in the Irish Independent I think about how they were to erect huge cylinders of a few miles in diameter in high orbit. Their rotation would simulate gravity and people would live there.

Of course 50 years later, zero progress made.

 

[Declan]

Still no people on board.

Nasa's giant new SLS Moon rocket makes its debut

The Space Launch System vehicle rolls out for a practice countdown ahead of a flight this summer.

Unmanned .

 

[Declan]

next year they will try with people and we will just have to wait.
I await the Indian second attempt at a soft landing in July of this year.

No living thing can survive more than a few minutes above low earth orbit. The cut off point is the start of the Van Allan belt. From there to
the end of the universe, it is certain death within a couple of hours.

Well it happened, Jesus Christ, shut the fuck up about the Van Allan [sic] belt already

 

[Deleted member 122]

You have not proved that no living thing can survive beyond LEO (because of radiation) by repeatedly saying it

Yes, the astronauts received an above average radiation dose, perhaps few chest X-rays worth, it could have been worse

 

[Deleted member 122]

You have not proved that no living thing can survive beyond LEO (because of radiation)

It is a huge mistake to believe the radiation stops once through the Belt.

Did I say that?

Try reading for comprehension ffs

Why do you keep on posting (ugly looking) links to bing (whatever the fuck that is) that no one wants to click on.. Which are all YouTube videos anyway, which are (default) embeddable here -

[Deleted member 122]

Proves my point. It is not all gamma rays. There ism solar and interstellar radiation. IT killed every living thing that ever went through it.

lol.. What the fuck are you on about? What living thing?

The Russians blast off on July 22. Last visit supposedly in 1975, almost 50 years ago. Lets hope it will encounter soil totally different to the supposed samples from dcades ago, we shall see hopefully.

 

[Deleted member 122]

Haha.. Yeah, I think the Moon landing hoax theories are coming to an end soon enough..

 

[Deleted member 122]

54 years and no answers. There will never be answers. A search of the moon would be needed to prove men walked on it. They cannot prove men walked on it or that cows did not walk on it. Common sense tells us cows did not walk on it.

NASA recorded two films of Armstrong allegedly stepping onto the moon. One was the one we all saw and was poor quality. The other was better quality. What do ya know, they accidently erased the good one. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...oon-landing-original-footage-disappeared.html

You claim that the Moon landings were a hoax, and your killer argument seems to be -

"There ism solar and interstellar radiation. IT killed every living thing that ever went through it."

What did it kill? What are these living things you speak of?

 

[Declan]

We are within a year or two of finding out for sure, after waiting decades. Private ventures like Bezos and Musk might be sooner but I think in 2023 nasa will try to have people circlet noon and the following year land. 55 years after they supposedly did it in 1969. We shall see.
It will be a great I told you so moment for one side or the other.
