Imo i would rather believe some of the names ive mentioned earlier especially the rocket engineer who worked on ICBM's around the same time the apollo missions were allegedly ongoing.
That's really the bottom line, isn't it.
This person will "believe" no one who actually has knowledge, and will do no research to confirm or deny any information presented him. He will simply hold to his opinion...uninformed as it may be.
That's OK, of course, but it does nothing for the content of a thread which should, in principal, inspire some discussion, and of course some learning. Apollo, space flight, and all the associated disciplines are not about "belief". They are about experience and knowledge.
Belief is conjecture. We did not accomplish Apollo based upon conjecture, nor does any one learn anything on that basis.
This person states that he prefers to believe rather than to know. He's entitled to that. It's sad, of course, but he's entitled to it.
If he is not willing to learn, and prefers only to believe fallacious information, then the only reason he's still here is in order to argue (despite the fact he's already lost that arguement), and to feed his ego in seeing himself in print...saying the same uneducated things over and over again in the face of overwhelming information to the contrary.
It's a waste of everyone's time.
