Once again not addressing the real topic and posting a picture that has nothing to do with the thread.

Carry on Zorgon. As usual nothing will come of this thread and it will fall by the wayside like all the other moon base and mining threads you start.

I seem to be the only one willing to stand up to you and John Lear, and I am telling you, I am not ashamed to say most of the stuff (NOTE I SAID MOST) is pure bunk. I have enjoyed some of the things where totally insane conclusions weren't drawn out of the blue.

Rocks, he started this thread, he can post pictures as he likes. Besides, the picture has to do with the likes of you. You should be flattered.

Honestly, I think you are just jealous. A quick review of your thread count shows a "whopping" total of 13. Many with ZERO replies or single digit replies. None with triple digits. Face it, you have: "Post-Envy".

Perhaps a pill would help.
( Careful of those posts lasting longer than 4 hours.)

Behold McDonald's: 596 Edquiba Rd, Mountain View, California. It's just a bit SW of Moffett Field. I have a lovely birdseye view, but ATS being the hypercontrolling entity it is, will not allow me to upload anything yet. This link will put you in the neighborhood though: Current Lunar Orbiter Photography Storage Facility.

Oh, cripes. This is what I get for not paying attention to the post dates or looking to see how long the gd thread is before posting like some dribbling idiot. I'm days late to the party. The vomit has long been crust on the floor.

I gotta tell you that I think it's a hell of a lot of work to set up a hoax here. Why haul all that crap into a McD's and set it up, etc., etc., etc., only to have to haul it out again?

Frankly, I'm getting sick of the naysayers on this flipping web site. You should spend less time busting the balls of people who work at bringing you good information and more time upstairs and outside in the sunlight in something other than your Underoos.

Zorgon isn't the hoaxing/BS'ing type. Never has been.

"Dr X" answered all 3 questions in glorious technicolor detail earlier in the thread:

2) Who actually said the tapes were from the Lunar Orbiter?


That would be Dennis and everyone else involved with the project and LO-1-102 was the image on the screen of the computer

This was further backed up by Phage in this post
www.abovetopsecret.com...

and the document he linked to part authored by Dennis Wingo

3) Who originally said the tapes were just left laying around
in an abandoned McDonalds?


Originally? Well for THIS thread that would be Steve...

"Behind the counter of an abandoned McDonalds lie 48,000 lbs of 70mm tape the only copy of extremely high-resolution images of the moon.

These tapes were recorded 40 years ago as part of the Apollo program to map the lunar surface to plan landing spots for Apollo 11 onward. They have never been seen by the public because at the time, they were classified as they reveal the extreme precision of our spy satellites. Instead, all we have ever seen are the grainy photo-of-a-photo images that were released to the public. "


Those are basic questions I wouldn't mind having answered
by someone who really is "In The Know"!


Any more questions?

I agree. McD's are not just "abandoned" they pretty much succeed wherever they go. Having been a fast food franchisee for 25 years I can tell you a well built and equiped store like this one would not be left to rot-much less become a repository for a missing treasure trove of high-resolution moon pix. As for the tape reader, perhaps John Teeter could go back in time and get the parts they need! :lol But it would be cool if it's real and we could get a good look.

Wait a minute...an 'ABANDONED' McDonald's????

I would give my left pinky finger to be able to won a McDonald's franchise (or two or three....or four or five or six)

BUT, it is extremely expensive to buy one.....

So an 'abandoned' one????

Wow! Somebody must have been paid off, real good!

I'd just as soon expect one could use an 'abandoned Bob's Big Boy'?

Or, any of a thousand abandoned warehouses, {edit here, spelling} a staple of current TV shows.

Perhaps something is going on in the recently 'abandonded' Subway franchise, just up my street. Seriously, one week it was there, the next it wasn't!!!

I'll go up three blocks and find out what's going to be there next...on the way, I'll pass by the restauraunt that just closed....they had everything going for them, especially beacause there was a perfect open lot, right next door!!! for the Valet Parking!!! But, alas, they failed. New sign, says....new restaurant about to open....been there for about three months now.

Conspiracy?? No....economics. Maybe. New restaurant....holding my breath...
