Lack of imagination.

That was what one of the astronauts described during the Congressional hearings as the reason Gus Grissom, Roger Chaffee, and Ed White died.

They didn't think about what a pure oxygen atmosphere acts like at 15psi when anything flammable like the early use of Nylon (Velcro) burns. NASA learned from the lack of imagination, made needed changes and moved forward.

That's a big leap of FAITH to see anything substantial in those pictures. Did you know that the earth photo that NAZA has produced since 1975 shows drastically different sized continents and cut/paste clouds?

I just have one question. Why are aliens always shown naked? I mean they fly through the universe at speeds that defy our physics, but yet they haven't developed a need to cover up when cold or do they just not get cold?

Advanced my ass...

If the moon landings were faked, the Russians would have been all over it, as they were trying to get there at the same time. It was a huge propaganda win for the USA. If it was faked, the Russians wouldn't have let it stand.

As far as CGI goes, 2d CGI first came about in the Hitchcock movie Vertigo. But 3d CGI motion capture did not come about until 1971, two years after the first moon landing. It was a short film of a human hand. One of the first motion capture of a human body was in 1981, a short film called Adam Powers, The Juggler, released by Information International, Inc (otherwise knows as Triple I).

I know this, because I worked with a lot of people, employees, and imaging, scanning, and pagination equipment from Triple I in the 80's.

The whole notion of it being faked is just stupid. The technology to fake it wasn't invented until after it happened, and it didn't get even close to being able to fool the human eye until about 10 years ago. The argument is pathetic.

Triple I used a Foonly F1 computer to do some of the work for the movie Looker in 1981 and Tron in 1982.

Remember how crappy the graphics were in Tron compared to today's movies? That was state of the art in 1982, 13 years after the moon landing.

Here's the clip from Looker, 1981. The first realistic CGI human body. Again, 12 years after the moon landing.

A note, about 45 seconds into it, you see the hand. They reused that from the 1971 first motion capture, as it was so hard to recreate, even 10 years later.

At the time of the moon landings in 1969, there were no computers powerful enough or that had enough storage capable of rendering and storing the images. It would have taken years to render.

I have a nephew in the film industry. He's currently a special effects director for a major popular series. His job after college was rendering these types of things and he's been in the industry about 20 years. He laughs hard at anyone that thinks they had the technology in 1969, as do I.
