And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Interesting how much private enterprise was involved here, and which resulted in a successful landing.
The landing was facilitated by the most incredible act of real-life MacGyver hacking I've ever heard of. The landing was delayed by a couple of hours because important cameras on the IM-1 weren't working. But there was a NASA payload on board that had some similar cameras that could be hacked. In that time, they got permission to use the NASA hardware, wrote software to use them to land, uploaded it to the satellite and pulled it off.
No, "private enterprise" funded 100% through STOLEN TAX DOLLARS. Sorry, until folks do this on THEIR DIME and NOT MINE, I object 100%. And no human is going to the moon. It has NEVER happened and it WILL NEVER happen. This is just more wealth transfer masquerading as "science," just like in the late 60s.
You really believe NASA - let alone the people involved - could keep that kind of secret this long? Easier to do it than fake it, especially in the 1960s.
Nearly NOBODY knew the entire story. Thousands got paychecks to do their little bits, but knew nothing of what others were doing. Sad that after JFK, Gulf of Tonkin, the Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, the Kuwaiti baby incubators, WMDs, yellowcake, 9-11, the 2020 election, etc. you still can't fathom that your government would ever lie on a massive scale. Any my tin foil hat is still keeping me safer than anything the government has delivered over my lifetime.
According to a report this AM, Odysseus has tipped over onto its side in trying to move to a new spot. While the craft is still functioning, according to the report, its mission is now unfortunately almost dead.
Hopefully, one of the six instruments is a green cheese detector.

And a huge loss for careerist bureaucrat heavy government programs.
ReplyDeleteNo.
DeleteThe largest criminal enterprise in world history ALWAYS get's it's cut of stolen money.

ReplyDeleteWow! How often does your tin foil hat have tp be replaced?

DeleteYou guys still believe that there is a Moon!?! Come on wise up!
DeleteWas it made in America or just assembled in America from Chinese parts?
ReplyDeletePaying Innovative Machines to deliver these instruments allows NASA to concentrate on its primary mission of Muslim Outreach.

They're blaming 'faulty telemetry' for the first report of an successful landing.
DeleteSome of the on-board instruments are still working
ReplyDeleteNASA is too woke to do it on their own.
ReplyDeletemore proof that one should wait until all the facts are "in" until making any significant claims of success for something like this. . . . .
