Baron and his family were killed as their car was struck by a train at a train crossing. The Apollo 15 retroreflector was deployed on July 31, 1971, and was detected by McDonald Observatory within a few days. However, five hours before transmission they were told to stand down. 4. [137] Conspiracy theorists claim that the computers during the time of the Moon landings would not have been advanced enough to allow for human space travel to the Moon and back;[138] they similarly claim that other contemporary technology (radio transmission, radar, and other instrumentation) was likewise insufficient for the task.[139]. Some claim that the technology to send men to the Moon was lacking or that the Van Allen radiation belts, solar flares, solar wind, coronal mass ejections and cosmic rays made such a trip impossible. After Apollo 18 was canceled, the other LRV was used for spare parts for the Apollos 15 to 17 missions. Some still think so", "Solar corona photographed from Apollo 15 one minute prior to sunrise", "Goddard's Journal: Are Apollo Moon Photos Fake? The original SSTV transmission had better detail and contrast than the scan-converted pictures, and it is this original tape that is missing. Meanwhile Plum Brook continued worked to complete several tests during this period, including testing of the Centaur Standard Shroud for the upcoming Viking mission. "[35] In fact, NASA accounted for the cost of Apollo to the US Congress in 1973, totaling US$25.4 billion. Some main arguments (set in plain text) and counter-arguments (set in italics) are listed below. By the time of Apollo 11, the United States had a lead much wider than that. Sign up for our newsletter and enter to win the second edition of our book. The reactor first went critical on 14 June 1961, and was finally shut down on 5 January 1973. However, most of the Soviet gains listed above were matched by the United States within a year, and sometimes within weeks. Analyses by scientists worldwide all agree that these rocks came from the Moon no published accounts in peer-reviewed scientific journals exist that dispute this claim. "Moon hoax" redirects here. [130][131] In fact, by the time of the launch of the first crewed Earth-orbiting Apollo flight (Apollo 7), the USSR had made only nine spaceflights (seven with one cosmonaut, one with two, one with three) compared to 16 by the United States. In April 2001, Leonard David published an article on space.com,[157][158] which showed a photo taken by the Clementine mission showing a diffuse dark spot at the site NASA says is the Apollo 15 lander. 11. 1. One of the old tapes has been sent to NASA for analysis. [11], Vince Calder and Andrew Johnson, scientists from Argonne National Laboratory, have given detailed answers to conspiracists' claims on the laboratory's website. Located on 6,400 acres in the Lake Erie community of Sandusky, Plum Brook is home to several world-class test facilities, which perform complex and innovative ground tests for the international space community. Some staff members found new positions at Lewis, but hundreds of others were soon out of work. The Plum Brook Reactor was a NASA 60 megawatt water-cooled and moderated research nuclear reactor,[1][2] located in Sandusky, Ohio, 50mi west of the NASA Glenn Research Center (at that time the NASA Lewis Research Center) in Cleveland, of which it was organizationally a part. However, NASA canceled the commission later that year, after complaints that the book would dignify the accusations. Moon Landings? 1. The reactor was originally planned for the NACA nuclear airplane project. [176][177][178] If NASA had used similar robot technology, then between 300 and 2,000 robot missions would have been needed to collect the current amount of Moon rocks that is held by NASA. In November 2004 the Dynamics Stand (E Stand) became the first to fall. [174] Furthermore, lunar meteorites are so rare that it is unlikely that they could account for the 380kg (840lb) of Moon rocks that NASA gathered between 1969 and 1972. In December 1972 NASA canceled all of its nuclear propulsion and power programs, resulting in the closure of Plum Brook Station [today, the Neil Armstrong Test Facility]. Not to be confused with, Claimed motives of the United States and NASA, In 1968, Clarke and Kubrick had collaborated on the film. 2023 Atlas Obscura. In December 2009 NASA issued a final report on the Apollo 11 telemetry tapes. [113] Parkes had a bigger antenna than NASA's antenna in Australia at the Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station, so it received a better picture. Conspiracists see this as evidence that they never existed. [151] Oberg said that he meant to finish the book. In the 1970s the center expanded the scope of its work into new areas, such as renewable energy sources. 4. It parodies conspiracy theories with faked interviews, stories of assassinations of Stanley Kubrick's assistants by the CIA, and a variety of conspicuous mistakes, puns, and references to old movie characters, inserted through the film as clues for the viewer. In 2002, Alex R. Blackwell of the University of Hawaii pointed out that some photos taken by Apollo astronauts[158] while in orbit around the Moon show the landing sites. This included de-energizing electrical systems, deactivating boilers, shutting down gas systems, depressurizing air service, etc. Lewis set up a job placement office at Plum Brook to assist those affected. Kubrick did hire Frederick Ordway and Harry Lange, both of whom had worked for NASA and major aerospace contractors, to work with him on 2001. Those who believe the Moon landings were faked offer several theories about the motives of NASA and the United States government. However, still photos of the original SSTV image are available (see photos). Engineers at NASA's Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio, began the first of a series of modal tests on a structural representation of the crew module adapter (CMA) for Orion. [124] In time for the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing, Lowry Digital had been tasked with restoring the surviving footage. Baron was a quality control inspector who wrote a report critical of the Apollo program and was an outspoken critic of NASA's safety record after the Apollo 1 fire. Some conspiracists have suggested that Starfish Prime (a high-altitude nuclear test in 1962) formed another intense layer on the Van Allen belt.[82]. Experimental efforts included scientific and technical investigations of nuclear energy for spaceflight propulsion, nuclear power systems, and radiation exposure. NASA officials were happy to get the business and hope it will be. The Gas Handling Area was removed in March 2010, followed by the High Energy Rocket Engine Research Facility (B1) and Nuclear Rocket Dynamics and Control Facility (B3) facilities in fall 2010. In 1985 the Office of Management and Budget recommended that NASA relinquish control of Plum Brook Station. Copies of those tapes have been found.[120]. The 1994 book Moon Shot[76] contains an obviously fake composite photo of Alan Shepard hitting a golf ball on the Moon with another astronaut. One passage on how Kubrick was supposedly coerced into the conspiracy reads: NASA further leveraged their position by threatening to publicly reveal the heavy involvement of Mr. Kubrick's younger brother, Raul, with the American Communist Party. And considering the cost of maintaining them, this was no small issue. Note the near-transparency of the exhaust, even in air (water is being sprayed up from below), Atlas uses non-hypergolic kerosene (RP-1) fuel which gives a bright and very visible exhaust, 1.5MN (340,000lbf) of thrust, Bright flame from first stage of the Saturn V, burning RP-1, 3.

[183], In a 1994 poll by The Washington Post, 9% of the respondents said that it was possible that astronauts did not go to the Moon and another 5% were unsure. [117] The Apollo 11 telemetry tapes were different from the telemetry tapes of the other Moon landings because they contained the raw television broadcast. BROOK PARK, Ohio NASA proposed a budget on Monday of $802.4 million for Glenn Research Center in fiscal 2021, down from an unofficial 2020 budget of $945 million. We hypothesized that (a) endorsement of COVID-19 conspiracy theories is positively associated with support for VR, and (b) psychological distress modifies the relationship between COVID-19 conspiracy theories and support for VR. Activities at the reactor were terminated immediately, and the other facilities would shut down by fiscal year 1974. The digital technology on Earth during the time of the Moon landings was just in its infancy. For example, he claims that, during the Apollo program, the USSR had five times more crewed hours in space than the United States, and notes that the USSR was the first to achieve many of the early milestones in space: the first artificial satellite in orbit (October 1957, Sputnik 1);[d] the first living creature in orbit (a dog named Laika, November 1957, Sputnik 2); the first man in space and in orbit (Yuri Gagarin, April 1961, Vostok 1); the first woman in space (Valentina Tereshkova, June 1963, Vostok 6); and the first spacewalk (Alexei Leonov in March 1965, Voskhod 2). Plum Brook Station is located on 6,400 acres of land near Sandusky, Ohio, about 50 miles west of the main Glenn Research Center campus. Deep scars on the earth left by the Ice Age. Marcus Allen, a conspiracist, answered that no photos of hardware on the Moon would convince him that human landings had happened. Plum Brook Station is a test facility for NASA's Glenn Research Center. [30], Also, there was nothing "abrupt" about the Apollo cancellations, which were made for cost-cutting reasons. Close-up of later generation prints of AS16-107-17446, 9. He described the emergence of the atomic age and the weapons of mass destruction that were piling up in the storehouses of the American and Soviet nations. Photography experts (including those unrelated to NASA) have replied that the oddities are consistent with what should be expected from a real Moon landing, and are not consistent with tweaked or studio imagery. Kubrick also used some 50mm f/0.7 lenses that were left over from a batch made by Zeiss for NASA. [13][14], In 1980, the Flat Earth Society accused NASA of faking the landings, arguing that they were staged by Hollywood with Walt Disney sponsorship, based on a script by Arthur C. Clarke and directed by Stanley Kubrick. NASA's Glenn Research Center's world-class facilities and expert staff help develop and verify cutting-edge technologies in the areas of aeronautics, aerospace and space. By May 1974 the staff had mothballed all of the Rocket Systems Area sites. [136] Most personal computers as of 2019, use 50,000100,000 times this amount of RAM. It spotted traces of the Apollo landings. Plum Brook Station is the 2590 hectare (6400 acre) field station of NASA Glenn Research Center. Today, a handful of test facilities are currently operational at Plum Brook, all of which rank among the largest and most powerful space environment simulation facilities in the world. He earned a bachelors degree in public communications from the American University in Washington. Its used for testing full-scale space hardware, including parts of rockets, Mars landers, and space stations. [185] Officials of the Fox network said that such skepticism rose to about 20% after the February 2001 airing of their network's television special, Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?, seen by about 15 million viewers. Consider supporting our work by becoming a member for as little as $5 a month. In August 2021, the facility was renamed to honor Apollo astronaut and Ohio native Neil Armstrong. But if the SLS program wants to use B-2 to test that upper stage, it would be expected to cover the estimated $15 million in basic refurbishment costs as well as SLS Program-specific test costs, which could likely be significant, the IG wrote. Penn Jillette made note of this in the "Conspiracy Theories" episode of his television show Penn & Teller: Bullshit! [123] Senior engineer Dick Nafzger, who was in charge of the live TV recordings during the Apollo missions, was put in charge of the restoration project. Nevertheless, Opration Lune is still taken at face value by some conspiracy believers. Moreover, even if someone wanted to use the chamber, it is unusable in its current condition, according to the IG. Two of the above, X-15 pilot Mike Adams and MOL pilot Robert Lawrence, had no connection with the civilian crewed space program that oversaw the Apollo missions. [182] Smaller retroreflectors were also put on the Moon by the Russians; they were attached to the uncrewed lunar rovers Lunokhod 1 and Lunokhod 2. Dan Leone is a SpaceNews staff writer, covering NASA, NOAA and a growing number of entrepreneurial space companies. [32] (See Vietnam War below. Several scenes in 2001 show dust billowing as spacecraft landed, something that would not happen in the vacuum environment of the Moon. Proving a hoax would have been a huge propaganda win for the Soviets. About fifteen minutes of it were filmed by an amateur 8 mm film camera and these are also available. The combination of the Lewis Field and Plum Brook locations comprise over 6,800 acres of land and include 450 research and test facilities. [9][10] He served as head of the technical publications unit at the company's Propulsion Field Laboratory until 1963. On July 17, 2009, NASA released low-resolution engineering test photos of the Apollo 11, Apollo 14, Apollo 15, Apollo 16 and Apollo 17 landing sites that have been photographed by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter as part of the process of starting its primary mission. This suggests that it was filmed on Earth and a breeze caused the flag to flutter. The Daily Telegraph published a story in 2002 saying that European astronomers at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) would use it to view the landing sites. 10. Two of these a wind tunnel called the Hypersonic Test Facility, and the Cryogenic Components Laboratory, which is now slated for demolition have not been used in four years, the IG wrote. Landing on the Moon was viewed as a national and technological accomplishment that would generate world-wide acclaim. These beautiful wineries were at the center of Lake Erie's "grape belt" back when the Midwest dominated American wine production. Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that some or all elements of the Apollo program and the associated Moon landings were hoaxes staged by NASA, possibly with the aid of other organizations. Then theres a wind tunnel called the Hypersonic Tunnel facility, which allows NASA to test the aircraft of the future at speeds up to seven times the speed of sound. In addition, the center decided to begin removing the Plum Brook Ordnance Works (PBOW) concrete bunkers that had stored munitions during World War II and NASA records and equipment in later years. Opinion polls taken in various locations have shown that between 6% and 20% of Americans, 25% of Britons, and 28% of Russians surveyed believe that the crewed landings were faked. Between 1975 and 1985, the researchers investigated several different configurations on the machine. 6. Rocket engines are the dark structures at the bottom center, The launch of a Titan II, burning hypergolic Aerozine-50/N2O4, 1.9MN (430,000lbf) of thrust. These may be labeled studio props. The tapes are believed to have been stored rather than re-used. Its walls are 2 feet thick to withstand the blast of powerful . Parkes supposedly had the clearest video feed from the Moon, but Australian media and all other known sources ran a live feed from the United States. Follow us on Twitter to get the latest on the world's hidden wonders. Only Plum Brooks Space Power Facility, a cavernous vacuum chamber for testing full-scale space hardware, has a steady stream of customers lined up, according to the inspector general. On this page: Acoustics Facilities Combustion Facilities Components Facilities Lewis Director Bruce Lundin traveled to Plum Brook that day to personally inform the staff that the station would be closed down. On later missions, NASA released information to the public explaining where and when the spacecraft could be sighted. Longuski argues that it would have been much easier to really land on the Moon than to generate such a huge conspiracy to fake the landings. While the LRO images have been enjoyed by the scientific community as a whole, they have not done anything to convince conspiracists that the landings happened. This would have been an intolerable embarrassment to Mr. Kubrick, especially since the release of Dr. Strangelove. [121] Goddard was storing 35,000 new tapes per year in 1967,[122] even before the Moon landings. Cropped photo of Buzz Aldrin saluting the flag (the fingers of Aldrin's right hand can be seen behind his helmet), Cropped photo taken a few seconds later, Buzz Aldrin's hand is down, head turned toward the camera, the flag is unchanged, Animation of the two photos, showing that though Armstrong's camera moved between exposures, the flag is not waving. Spacecraft Propulsion Research Facility (B-2), Cryogenic Propellant Tank Facility (K-Site), World's Largest Vacuum Chamber to Test Orion, + Budgets, Strategic Plans and Accountability Reports, + Equal Employment Opportunity Data Posted Pursuant to the No Fear Act, + Information-Dissemination Priorities and Inventories. The three main theories are below. Since in 1969 water was believed to be absent on the Moon, no geologist discussed finding these on the Moon in any great amount. Follow us on social media to add even more wonder to your day. Since 2012, Plum Brook Station has received about $31 million in annual funding from NASA, most of which comes from the agencys Construction and Environmental Compliance account the budget line reserved for building, maintaining and demolishing infrastructure. The launch and splashdown would be real but the spacecraft would stay in Earth orbit and fake footage broadcast as "live from the Moon." There appear to be "hot spots" in some photos that look like a large spotlight was used in place of the Sun. The worlds most powerful spacecraft acoustic test chamber, its capable of simulating the noise of a spacecraft launch up to 163 decibels, or as loud as the thrust of 20 jet engines. Conspiracists argue that Marshall Space Flight Center Director Wernher von Braun's trip to Antarctica in 1967 (about two years before the Apollo 11 launch) was to gather lunar meteorites to be used as fake Moon rocks. Like us on Facebook to get the latest on the world's hidden wonders. The MythBusters crew tested many of the conspiracists' claims. [2][3] In 2012, images were released showing five of the six Apollo missions' American flags erected on the Moon still standing. Jason Joey Berry, 39, of Montreal, Canada, pleaded guilty today to conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and import it into the United States, resulting in serious bodily injury and death. Crosshairs are sometimes rotated or in the wrong place. The Plum Brook Reactor was a NASA 60 megawatt water-cooled and moderated research nuclear reactor, [1] [2] located in Sandusky, Ohio, 50 mi west of the NASA Glenn Research Center (at that time the NASA Lewis Research Center) in Cleveland, of which it was organizationally a part. [120], In July 2009, NASA indicated that it must have erased the original Apollo 11 Moon footage years ago so that it could re-use the tape. The cavernous vacuum chamber continues to attract a steady stream of customers, including SpaceX, which has tested both its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft at the facility. Covering the business and politics of space. Bart Sibrel cites the relative level of the United States and USSR space technology as evidence that the Moon landings could not have happened. For technical reasons, the Apollo 11 lander carried a slow-scan television (SSTV) camera (see Apollo TV camera). 12. Who filmed Neil Armstrong stepping onto the Moon? [39] There was in fact no video broadcast during either the landing or takeoff because of technological limitations. Dgh writes: "The mass media catapult these half-truths into a kind of twilight zone where people can make their guesses sound as truths. Moon-landing conspiracists claim that observatories and the Hubble Space Telescope should be able to photograph the landing sites. Measuring 100' in diameter and 122' high, it was ideal for testing the Mars lander systems and International Space Station hardware. 1. The leading candidate at this point, the IG wrote, is NASAs Space Launch System. 3. In even worse shape is Plum Brooks Combined Effects Chamber, which was designed for large-scale experiments with liquid hydrogen, but never used. David Scott drops a hammer and feather on the Moon, 1. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you . They point to oddities in photos and films taken on the Moon. Offer subject to change without notice. Nevertheless, the claim was taken up in earnest;[144] Clyde Lewis used it almost word-for-word,[143] whereas Jay Weidner gave the brother a more senior status within the party: No one knows how the powers-that-be convinced Kubrick to direct the Apollo landings. [172][173] However, the first Antarctic lunar meteorite was found in 1979, and its lunar origin was not recognized until 1982. [115][116] Apollo 11 data tapes containing telemetry and the high-quality video (before scan conversion from slow-scan TV to standard TV) of the first moonwalk are also missing. Some former Apollo personnel want to find the tapes for posterity while NASA engineers looking towards future Moon missions believe the tapes may be useful for their design studies. [128] Three of them were carried to the Moon on Apollos 15, 16, and 17, used by the astronauts for transportation once on the Moon, and left there. Sandusky's Plum Brook Station is an annex to the NASA Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field in Cleveland, Ohio. NASA shelved other major programs, such as a space station and long-duration human journeys to other planets. Plum Brook Station, however, continues to support NASA and industry with its four large test facilities today. There are, however, a few nonrocket B-2 bookings lined up for 2015. The foremost idea is that the whole crewed landing program was a hoax from start to end. [166][167] The Indian Space Research Organisation launched their uncrewed lunar probe on September 8, 2008 (IST), from Satish Dhawan Space Centre. Some of the testings were done in a NASA training facility. This implies that the world's major observatories (as well as the Hubble Program) are complicit in the hoax by refusing to take photos of the landing sites. [28] The Soviet Union tracked the Apollo missions at the Space Transmissions Corps, which was "fully equipped with the latest intelligence-gathering and surveillance equipment. + More NASA Facts. By the late 1970s, NASA decided to continue the maintenance of the reactor, Space Power Facility (SPF), Spacecraft Propulsion Research Facility (B2), Cryogenic Propellant Tank Facility (K Site), and the Hypersonic Tunnel Facility (HTF), but ceased protecting the other Rocket Systems Area sites. The cameras were fitted with a Rseau plate (a clear glass plate with a reticle etched on), making it impossible for any photographed object to appear "in front" of the grid. [194] Another poll gives that 25% of 18- to 25-year-olds surveyed were unsure that the landings happened. In 1965, the United States started to achieve many firsts (such as the first successful space rendezvous), which were important steps in a mission to the Moon. 6. [143] It has been claimed that when 2001 was in post-production in early 1968, NASA secretly approached Kubrick to direct the first three Moon landings. NASA refers to the rocks and particles collected from the Moon as being evidence of the program's legitimacy, as they claim that these rocks could not have been formed under conditions on Earth. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center (GRC) is leading the design and build of the new world-class vibroacoustic test capabilities at the NASA GRC's Plum Brook Station in Sandusky, Ohio, USA. Offer available only in the U.S. (including Puerto Rico). SpaceX testing Falcon 9's carbon fibre fairing in a vacuum chamber at Plum Brook Station. [151], In 2004, Martin Hendry and Ken Skeldon of the University of Glasgow were awarded a grant by the UK-based Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council to investigate Moon landing conspiracy theories. In 2015, a report from NASAs inspector general made the disconcerting announcement that all but one of the major test facilities at Plum Brook Station had few or no customers. M113751661L", "Apollo Moon flags still standing, images show", "American Flags From Apollo Missions Still Standing", "The Flat-out Truth: Earth Orbits? [189][190], A 2000 poll conducted by the Public Opinion Foundation[ru] () in Russia found that 28% of those surveyed did not believe that American astronauts landed on the Moon, and this percentage is roughly equal in all social-demographic groups. , most of the Moon, 1 been found.
