Important Details About The Moon Lander

By Brian Ross


Landers are spacecrafts which descends towards and softly lands on an astronomical body surface using parachutes, rockets or airbag cushions before impact. They would remain functional after landing unlike the impactors which loses functions after impacting the surface. This is done to study the consequences when an object hits that area and the materials found on them.

Numerous countries are developing vehicles like these so they can send them into space and study the different astronomical bodies surrounding the planet. Among them is the moon lander that could carry humans even on them with some successful results. Asteroids, comets and other planets have been landed by these machines they still are unmanned ones.

The United States is the first and only country to successfully send humans to moon beginning with Apollo 11 and followed by five others. Other countries have sent their own spacecrafts to the lunar surface but these are unmanned. These missions allow them to bring back materials which scientists on Earth can study to learn more about.

A live television broadcast of the Apollo Eleven mission was available for audiences worldwide enabling the rest to see the first steps humans made there. Their success has ended a space race between rival nations of Soviet Union and United States on being the first to send there a man. But some people are still skeptical and believed the moon landing was staged.

The claim this basing on photographs taken by astronauts which they said were manipulated and display things they though are impossible there. The erected flapping flag is an example where they said that should not happen because air is absent there. Their flag flapped though because of inertia caused when it was erected by the astronauts.

Another is when the photographs show both astronauts that landed on moon which indicates there is a cameraman taking these for them. This claim is explained away by having cameras on the lander and the chest of their spacesuits. Mysterious reflections are also said to come from studio light which actually were lens flare only.

Stars are also not visible because the lunar surface reflects so much sunlight and the cameras used have fast shutter speed which they cannot pick. The shadows have inconsistencies because multiple light sources are available that are not from a production set. These are from the sun, as well as sunlight reflected from earth and other satellites around them.

This mission brought back also many evidences that nonbelievers say were manufactured although these were verified by independent parties as being authentic. These include the lunar rocks consistent to the ones found that feel on Earth. Space agencies of other countries released reports of their observations too during the mission which they tracked down and followed the progress made.

They also claim that if it really happened then the biggest and most powerful telescope on Earth should be able to see the spacecraft. This is impossible because the distance is too great although a new spacecraft has been orbiting the moon now. It photographed the various spacecrafts that landed on the lunar surface with better image resolution.
