Re: Breaking news - NASA makes major find on Mars

meh...that pristinely wrapped gold tin foil doesn't look sufficient for 10 days on the moon either, let alone the "thin metal panels" that look like they were installed by a high school shop class...the lander's "feet" sure like nice and clean, although i'm not sure why you would wrap its feet in nice gold tin foil...likely no big deal though, considering how soft and delicate the landing there was...the dirt below it isn't even disturbed and the feet are sitting nice and neat on the surface...if you didn't know any better, you would have figured it was lowered down gently with a crane.

It spent less then 3 days on the moon. Sure its ugly, it was purpose built for one task, was used and then discarded into Earth's atmosphere. The only thing on board which had no useful function was the TV camera, even then NASA was trying to stir public interest.

Rather than repeating the failed arguments of others, why not pick up a book written by the people that designed it, built it and flew it.

i have read a TON of books on space and space accomplishments by mankind as it was a field i was very interested in when i was in school...i was always a little "sceptical" about the moon landing, but having seen a number of questionable things over the years, that scepticism never left...i'm not saying it didn't happen, just that there are enough odd things around that raise enough questions about it.
