Title: Great Pics From Shuttle Mission

An old friend sent me the link to these pictures from a space shuttle mission (Endeavour), extraordinary clarity, check it out;

I've seen these before Joe, great clarity.  I wondered if they were real because the pictures of space did not show stars.  I wonder why?

I also wonder why the American Flag appears to be waving in the wind on the pictures of the landing on the Moon ;) Great photo technology though, if that is what it is.  :D

A paragraph form "Windows To The Universe"; On July 20, 1969, two Apollo 11 astronauts planted an American flag on the surface of the moon. The flag was a standard 3-foot-by-5-foot nylon flag that was altered by sewing a hem along the top. A telescoping crossbar, hinged to the flagpole, was extended through this hem so that when the flag was planted on the Moon, it would stand out instead of hanging limp against the flagpole (as it would normally do, since there is no wind on the Moon). When the flag was planted, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin had a little trouble getting the telescoping crossbar to extend to its full length, and so it ended up being a little shorter than it should have been. As a result, the flag was bunched up slightly and looked like it was actually "waving in the breeze."

Oh! That makes sense. Thank you. :D

What about the film footage of the flag waving ??? Is there an explanation for that as well perhaps? :) Maybe it was just bumped and there was a perpetual motion effect. If so then perpetual motion does exist then, in a vacuum....?  Where's Einstein?  :D :)

Peace to you

The reason that you can't see stars in those photos is because our sun's light is far too overwhelming to allow for the starlight to enter ones perspective in space.  We only see the stars at night because our sun isn't large enough to radiate light from the other side of our planet.

For those who believe the moon landings' footage took place in the desert, I believe Buzz Aldrin would disagree.  Didn't he punch somebody who asked him if they actually went there?  Also there was a movie (and a mission) called "Apollo 13".  Why would they have gone through the trouble of a failed mission if they knew that they weren't going there anyway?  I think they went!!  I also believe that Moslem extremists crashed planes into the Trade Center towers.



Oh, and about evolution. . . .







It's a crock!!














OJ did it!!!










Never mind!!!

I think this interview says it all. At least he (Buzz Aldrin) didn't punch this interviewer in the face!
 :) ;D :)
