Apollo-ites insist that aluminum is adequate for short missions in deep space, because Apollo had short missions, and would be excluded as such...
Experts don't exclude ANY manned missions into deep space. They mention long-term missions as more hazardous, a greater concern, compared to shorter missions.
The short missions are not safe, not excluded in any way at all. The short missions are indeed relevant, as a problem, same all others are, just less or more serious, based on the duration.
Not excluded, they point out 'data' in the paper supporting their argument. Which are not actually data, they used LEO data, then extracted to make some guesstimates. I know this only because the paper STATES IT!
Nothing matters to the Apollo-ites, they still make it up, anyway.

Going beyond LEO with humans has never been done, and cannot be done. The technology doesn't exist yet, nor will it exist anytime soon. It may take many decades, or more, if it ever does.

Where did I say it was lethal? It is your own idea, it was not said by me.
I don't know if it is lethal, but it's hazardous -so stop putting words in my mouth...
Less money means more time needed to reach the goal, that's all.
If a project needs 500 million over 5 years, and only gets 250 million over the 5 years, then it needs 10 years, to reach the goal, assuming same costs, or adjusted a year or two for inflation.
Money is a lame excuse.
Being told to do the Shuttle? Nobody wanted 40 years of Shuttles, after 'landing' men on the moon! It was done because we DIDN'T go to the moon - they just had no other option.
Who wanted Shuttles for 40 years, after the moon? That's just ludicrous.

Shuttles were our next step, after Gemini, etc.
Why do you think we stayed in orbit for 40 years with Shuttles, after landing on the moon?
Because we never landed on the moon, that's why..

No, Apollo

It has been excuse after excuse, ad nauseum, for nearly 50 years now, and stinks more and more in the passing of time...
A 'lack of money', wrong - they spent a fortune on Shuttles for several decades, just to fly endlessly in LEO!
On and on, hurling out these crapola excuses...

no one is excluding it, you are making it up, we are just saying that the length of time they are exposed to it is negligible.

yes and being hazardous doesnt make the missions impossible..
it is impossible to have any space mission even to LEO if you want it to be safe.
or do you think strapping yourself onto several hundred thousand pounds of highly explosive fuel is completely safe??
no one ever claimed that going to the moon was not risky. no one ever said going to LEO was not risky neither.

so you are basing your argument that it is UNSAFE to go beyond VAB because you know that you read something in a paper that doesnt use actual data (something made up) to make its conclusions??

its like reading an article that says Lebron James is a woman (something made up) and coming to the conclusion that NBA is not real..
originally posted by: choos
how about you base your premise on actual data??? oh wait you dont even have actual data.. as you said no one knows how GCR will affect humans, but only you know with 100% conviction that sending a person into such an environment is absolutely impossible because everyone has no idea what GCR's will do..

just like when cigarettes were introduced, no one had any idea about the health consequences of cigarettes and therefore cigarettes were a hoax 100%.

(Carol Rosin) claimed to have been told by von Braun about the threat sequence which goes as follows: Communism, Terrorism, Rogue Nations, Asteroids, E.T.
The implication being that there is a threat in space that requires absolute total secrecy.
NASA simply left von Braun's tech to wither and die. The Nixon administration chose shuttles because they were promised very cheap payloads and 25+ lift off's per year. Today in 2016, American aerospace companies are awarded contracts by DoD and NASA and are using Russian made RD-180 rocket engines because American aerospace doesn't have anything comparable to the RD-180 right now (always in the future about 10-20 years...)
We are supposed to believe that American aerospace is so advanced (landed on the moon in '69) yet can't design and manufacture suitable replacements for the Russian engines they are buying by the dozen from Putin. This is all a farce and there is clearly something being hidden in space, e.g., aliens, alien technology.
Regardless what the pro-Apollo cultists have argued they cannot refute the fact that the NASA/Apollo space narratives are full of plot holes and shaky evidence, as seen in this thread and other epic threads.

GCR effects on humans are unknown, therefore venturing beyond LEO would be unsafe..
so if anything is deemed unsafe it means it absolutely cannot happen.
such as smoking cigarettes, getting to the ISS, speeding in a car etc.

They (NASA) had the greatest rocket designer the world has ever produced (von Braun) who was talking about Mars missions in the 1980's using Apollo/Saturn-based technology. NASA shuffled von Braun off to the retirement farm in the 70's and the former Nazi SS officer died of cancer. Some years later the woman (Carol Rosin) claimed to have been told by von Braun about the threat sequence which goes as follows: Communism, Terrorism, Rogue Nations, Asteroids, E.T.

All types of radiation are the same, and lumped together, as one heapin' pile o' radiation!

No. There is electromagnetic radiation and there is particle radiation. Cosmic rays are particle radiation and particle radiation is what was measured on the Apollo missions and unmanned missions (Pioneer, Ranger, Surveyor, Lunar Orbiter) prior.
Scientists around the world must have no interest in seeing Apollo's landing sites in detail, because none of them have ever mentioned it in nearly 45 years!
about six percent of Americans think it’s a hoax, and that we never went [to the Moon]. That’s supposed to make me outraged, but it doesn’t, it makes me laugh. I’d love to get together with a whole crowd of them in one room, with all these different theories, and listen to them and laugh at them....

Which journals do you subscribe to in order to make this generalization?
