Are you sure you are not a 'closet' Flat Earther? Don't lie now...
honest answer

Flat Earth
a. I actually don't know what to believe anymore. Pre-2020 never needed to question it. Never thought otherwise.

With todays BS ongoing... bets are off... Im questioning and researching everything.

Using Gov. approved Curvature calculations.
Curvature says, San Clemente island (max elevation 1965') is not visible from 60 miles.

At 60 miles, curvature is 2,400'.

Its below the "CURVE" But I can see it on a clear day. The full height of the islandl. HHHMMM

Who's not telling the truth??

Moon distance... my eyes say NFW it's 243k.. What distance I don't know. But you BET your ASS.. I'm gonna find out.

The posted video... guy says he works for NASA?? True or not.. I don't know.

I thought it was interesting for Parallax measurements. So I posted.

Triangulation and Parallax measurements. I don't know how. But, I'm gonna learn.. and check out the distance to the moon.

Back down the rabbit hole I go for more UNTRUTH information..LOL

Well 'By Jiminy', I do believe you're starting to get it 👍😁
I applaud your well thought out, educational and entertaining attempts to pierce his stubborn ignorance. 👏

After coming to the realization that my repeated and frequently redundant exchanges with Mr Marion in this and other threads was by definition, committing the act of "Insanity", I stopped. 👎

During the 16 years I've been on RDP, Mr. Marion has now become the sole member I've found it necessary to put on 'Ignore'. ☠️

So what Naughty Electron do to get banned???
I didn't know he was... IMO I thought it was GMAC and stated so, ... him not questioning it..

normally when he posts he will text me... I did not receive his text..

I did not follow his other posts.. but in this thread... I thought he was well behaved...

OH WELL...

waiting patiently for my 243k mile lazar measuring tool..LOL

I've been following the thread closely as it seems likely someone sicked AI on this particular post.
Under the user name it says BANNED.
The way its responses changed quickly and the amount of information / links to back up the opinion / basis / justification for said opinion with little time passing is like nothing I have ever seen. That has to be AI, directed / programmed by some one that has a beef with a couple of RDP members or just giving AI a functional performance test in a very challenging environment.

Looks like you're right, it's not 243k miles away.

"
  • Scientists fire lasers at reflectors placed on the moon by Apollo missions. By measuring the time it takes for the light to bounce back, they can calculate the distance very precisely.
While the moon's distance isn't perfectly constant due to its elliptical orbit, the average distance is well-established at around 238,855 miles."

it's truly amazing, people cannot have other opinions and thoughts on RDP...

another cut/paste... wish it was a meme... gets people triggered quicker... LOL

Have a great weekend

Wake up//

50 years ago.. NASA had technology in Shuttle crafts to travel 230,000 miles away to the moon..... This Shuttle needed only one tank of gas and could easily (supposedly) travel through the Van Allen radiation belt with no problems//// today [they] ,[NASA] can and has ONLY travel 1/Thousandth of the distance since 50 years ago.. back then [they] had technology that was only 1/millionth as strong and capable of today's Smart phone...

All that remains are edited videos of a moon landing that shows three different shadows from the different lighting sources in some clips.... No stars in the back ground..(later added)///
Only one photo of EARTH 🌍 was made public for 50 years...
The astronauts were WARNED not to give interviews <<<and seldom do....
////By FACT.. If NASA did go to moon 50 years ago... They would would have technology and videos to this day of life traveling to MARS & beyond now...

Look Ma, No meme.

The chances of having identical twins are relatively rare, occurring in about 3 to 5 out of every 1,000 births worldwide. However, if one identical twin is already born, the probability of having another identical twin in the same birth would technically be the same as the general population, assuming no external factors that could increase the likelihood of multiple births. So for a set of identical twins to be born in a family of 7 children, the chance would be around 0.003 to 0.005 per birth, assuming the births are independent events.

So that and the fact that 6 with the same names and very simuliar in apreance and mannerisms pretty high. Also the fact they are very very successful people. Come on bettter chance of hiting the loto like 5 times.

Whats the odds of having 2 identical twins not related in a group of 7 people.
P= 232,766,279 t=10,200

Great, now that we have the values of NN (total individuals) and TT (number of pairs of identical twins), let's calculate the probability and then the odds.
Given:
  • N=232,766,279N=232,766,279
  • T=10,200T=10,200
  1. Calculate PtwinsPtwins: Ptwins=C(2×10,200,2)C(232,766,279,2)Ptwins=C(232,766,279,2)C(2×10,200,2)
Ptwins=C(20,400,2)C(232,766,279,2)Ptwins=C(232,766,279,2)C(20,400,2)
Ptwins=20,400!2!×(20,400−2)!232,766,279!2!×(232,766,279−2)!Ptwins=2!×(232,766,279−2)!232,766,279!2!×(20,400−2)!20,400!
Ptwins=20,400×20,399232,766,279×232,766,278Ptwins=232,766,279×232,766,27820,400×20,399
Ptwins≈416,238,60054,172,485,705,535,842Ptwins≈54,172,485,705,535,842416,238,600
Ptwins≈7.6834×10−9Ptwins≈7.6834×10−9
  1. Calculate Pnon_relatedPnon_related: Pnon_related=C(232,766,279−2×10,200,5)C(232,766,279−2,5)Pnon_related=C(232,766,279−2,5)C(232,766,279−2×10,200,5)

Pnon_related≈4.3185×10−4Pnon_related≈4.3185×10−4
  1. Calculate PP: P=Ptwins×Pnon_relatedP=Ptwins×Pnon_related
P≈7.6834×10−9×4.3185×10−4P≈7.6834×10−9×4.3185×10−4
P≈3.3156×10−12P≈3.3156×10−12
  1. Calculate the odds: Odds=P1−POdds=1−PP

Odds≈3.3156×10−121Odds≈13.3156×10−12
Odds≈3.3156×10−12Odds≈3.3156×10−12
So, the odds of having 2 identical twins who are not related in a group of 7 people, given the provided population and twin count, is approximately 3.3156×10−123.3156×10−12.

99.99% of the population don't realize this actually occurred.

They saw with their eyes what the media played in the square BOX... the extent of their research is no more than page 3 of MSM...

Wait, Electronautical? text? you have his phone number?

Over in the "Sniper EFI" thread we were all convinced he was some sort of screwed up chat bot that had a boner for Raylar and fuel pressure 😂

As previously mentioned, there were some 400,000 technicians and workers employed by NASA and private industry in the decade-long task of putting man on the Moon. The generation that put man on the Moon multiple-times had charged up sandy beaches in the face of gunfire in WW2 to free tens of millions from fascism - only to watch millions of those same people be imprisoned behind walls of cement and barbed wire by Communists who filled the power vacuums in post-Nazi Europe.

The threats of Communism and nuclear holocaust were real to that generation of Americans. The people of the USA and our government were ALL-IN on being the first to the Moon because we were in a technological and propaganda fight for economic control of the planet with the communists. Going to the Moon was a monumental effort that had monumental costs, and was undertaken with the understanding that it also came with monumental risks. The people of today just cannot comprehend the attitudes of the Americans who lived through times where teaching school children to "Duck and Cover! was part of everyday life.

But the fact is up until Apollo 8, the Russians were winning in Space. The Russians were first to put a human in space, the first to orbit the Earth, the first to walk in space......... But those achievements were child's-play compared to the risks and the costs of sending humans all the way to the Moon (Apollo 8), and then landing there and getting the crew safely back home again (Apollo 11). Ultimately, the USA won the race to the Moon because our economic system gave us the resources to spend on the task. After Apollo 11 we successfully repeated the daunting task FIVE MORE TIMES. Talk about spiking the preverbal Space Ball. The Russians under Communism/socialism just couldn't afford to develop all of the technology that a Moon landing puts on the economic system of those trying to fund it.

So why haven't we been back? Apollo 11's first landing on the Moon was the most jointly-watched event in human history. But a few short years later when Apollo 17 became the last mission to the Moon, a weekly episode of the Partridge Family could draw more viewers than another old-hat Moon landing. Capitalism had won the Space race by being the only economic system capable of underwriting the enormous cost, and it also ended ended the Moon landings because of poor TV ratings and lack of Public interest. By 1972 the cost of going to the Moon far outweighed the desire of the people paying for it to keep paying for it. So the Moon program was cancelled.

For the peeps that doubt that we landed on the Moon? It is 1000 times easier to cast doubt on one of the most-recorded and documented achievements in human history than it would have been to fake that history right in front of billions of people, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of employees spread across the vast Apollo program who would have quickly figured out any fake landings. Same goes with Sept 11th. It would be a million times harder to fake Sept 11'th and keep the secrets than for a handful of willing terrorist to martyr themselves by pulling boxcutters on crews that were totally unprepared for such hijackings. But some people just have to believe the conspiracy - no matter how far-fetched.

Grissom, Chaffey and White were the crew of Apollo 1. They burned alive in Jan of 1967 during capsule testing. Part of the enormous cost of going to the Moon. Their deaths led to a total capsule redesign that paved the way for the successful Moon landings some 30 months later. They never made it off the launch pad, much less all the way to the Moon and back; but they did make it into my young consciousness as American heroes - as did the crew of Apollo 11. Such were the times. It was common to have heroes back then. I don't think the kids of today have heroes. It's hard to find heroes in 20 second Tic-Tok videos. The kids of today are worse off for it.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I think this one has always seemed to be a bit of a stretch.......

You mean to tell me, no other nation would follow suit to be in the "moon club" ? 50+ years later and we're the only ones. We're bad ass, but .........in the words of our fearless leader....."Cmon Man" 😁
Correct, no other nation has attempted to go because they just realized that it costs a ton of money to not really get anything out of it. We as america did typical boat owner shit and just threw money out the window just to flex. thats also why we havent gone back, its literally pointless.

It's not "no other nation has gone back" - it's "no other nation has ever attempted to go.... ."

What cracks me up is people referring to "the dark side of the moon".

It actually Does rotate, it just does it a Lot slower than earth does!
The moon rotates at the same speed the Earth does because of a force called gravitational tidal locking. As a result the same side of the moon is always seen from our viewpoint.

The dark side is illuminated by sunlight during the 29.5 day monthly moon phases, but because of the timing it cannot be observed.

Not 100 percent Accurate statement?

theres a whole different conspiracy theory regarding this, basically saying they never landed there and said they did because we really cant verify it.
