Exactly! Even if somehow the schematics and design drawings for all this ancient space hardware has been lost, at some point technologically it doesn't matter whether or not they even existed since anything we would possibly design would be so much more technologically advanced than what we had before. But that is also making one important assumption (a controversial assumption, but one nonetheless).. which is that we were even on the moon at all.

I am unecided on that aspect. For the larger part of my life I always believed that it was all real. I grew up reading books by Carl Sagan and Steven Hawking and took it all in because I loved it. I ate popcorn and sat through the movie "Apollo 13" even though I had to use the bathroom through the whole thing.. The point is that we assume it all really happend and that we simply put men on the moon because we are taught the same since grade school and NEVER taught to question what was being presented.

Sure, much of the supposed "evidence" of a moon conspiracy is simply laughable. But that doesn't mean you can write it off altogether. There is some pretty remarkable evidence, that is genuine, which should make us question what really happened regardless of how hoaky it sounds.

Sorry for another blabber about skepticism ( I do this alot..) but..
Being skeptical isn't about fear of other people trying to change your mind. At the most basic, fundamental level, skepticism is simply willing to set aside your judgement, set aside everything you've always assumed, and simply explore the possibilities to their fullest extent considering all the evidence being presented and all valid arguments being made in an effort to uncover the truth.

haha! they could tell you "hm.. we did this in the 60s " I guess you should patent ideeas first, so even if this is already working somewhere @ NASA you would still get some money from the private industry !

Very true hey. If i patent something, do i need a working model? Would be VERY expensive for ME to build LOL... When i say expensive, let's say it is relatively cheap but if one has reason to build it for one's self it could be expensive.

But i get your point fully!

You do not need to have a working model. Just google it like this:

google patent

It should not be that expensive to produce a scalled aircraft , just for the purpose of showing it does work . This would help a lot to sell your ideea.Are you talking about EV or Coanda Effect? I guess some smart people can make loads of money by patenting already existing ideas across the Internet.

With today's movie technology, could you imagine how much cooler a moon landing and moon walk would look?




just kidding. I think a trip to the moon would be a complete waste of time. We've already been there....there's nothing there. Personally - i think if they're going to recieve money for the moon trip, they should just apply it the mars project. Im much more interested in Mars


And i could be wrong...but i think patents don't apply to outer space
