So, the H20 of Aerozine 50 "combustion" is going to be very hot, but in an imagined LM shadow, it would radiate away its heat/energy in short order.

I for one have never contemplated this, and am intrigued.
Doing a bit of quick delving, I found this, which to me onlt partly explains.
It says the pod depressurized, then the hatch was opened and gear tossed out. Does this mean whilst the door was open, they were exposed whilst in their suits? Surely opening the door would have reversed the depressurization process?
www.airspacemag.com...
Enter pod, pressurize, take of backpacks, hook up to pod's air supply via hoses while keeping the suits on, depressurize, open hatch, throw out stuff...easy game
What a ridiculous idea! The air would suck in through the open hatch and blow astronots inside!
Here is the procedure, step by step. I highlighted the part that you may have missed:
- Enter pod
- pressurize
- take off backpacks
- hook up to pod's air supply via hoses while keeping the suits on
- depressurize [this may be what you missed, bokonon]
- open hatch
- throw out stuff
for completeness, I would add,
- close hatch
- repressurize
- take off helmet, breathe LEM's air
- unhook from LEM's air supply
- go home

How could they go home through the closed hatch?
Suppose they escaped unnoticed, without helmet's gold visors would not they be blinded by the moonshine?
edit on 30.5.2012 by bokonon2010 because: (no reason given)
Borman's medical care, Borman's behavior in the context of his alleged cislunar illness and that of his physician(s) trying to diagnose and treat him from 100,000 mile away, all of it is inconsistent with the activities of real medical people working on a real medical problem of this nature, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND THE HIGH STAKES, such that we can say with certainty the illness never occurred. And if the illness never occurred, Borman was never in cislunar space, and so all of Apollo is in consequence proven fraudulent. Borman is exposed as an actor here. Details to follow if you are so interested in them.

Honestly I didn't read your last 3 posts filled with chemistry and numbers because it would mean nothing to me.
None of it answers the question of "Why would they travel 238,900 just to pick up contaminated rocks?"
Indeed, by Occam's razor, the conjecture of such travel is nonsense.

and they wont be blinded, it might take time to adjust from the brightness and darkness when walking between the sunlight and shadow but the moon surface willl hardly blind you.. i think a snow field has more intense light reflection than the moon does, although im not sure on that.

obviously they close the hatch while INSIDE the LM in order to re-pressurize the craft..
