@ adonist7, the flag was rippling because they were moving it, setting it in motion. There was no air, no friction, nothing to stop it other than the minimal effects of gravity.
And about that star thing...
Collins' response is a followup to Armstrong's reference to solar corona photography which had been taken from the command module during the translunar coast, in which all three astronauts participated.
The reporter's question is a bit confusing since the solar corona cannot be seen from the lunar surface except when the earth eclipses the sun. Or, of course, from a spaceship positioned such that the earth is between the spaceship and the sun.
there's no wind since theyre in space. because there is little to no air in space, there is very little friction in its atmosphere, so if they wave the flag just a bit while plantin it there is nothing to really completly stop it from waving for a brief period
The flag waves because the astronauts are waving it. It's being held up by an externsion along the top edge.
AND what does incline you to think about the no mission during this 40 years or so after the 1st landing in the 1st try?
Amazing!
it has gravity, that's why the people are still standing there and not floating, and don't even try to say anything about "weight" as it does not matter in this occasion.
What is happening is there is no wind on the moon to shake the flag.
ALSO. The most definite answer to your point is that there is a metal pole on the top of the flag (as well as the one holding it upright) so the flag is in a FIXED position.
I'm not saying it's a hoax or not, just clarifying your point.
And also..
What Mr. Sibrel supplies is footage of the astronauts practicing for an upcoming telecast. Because television was added at the last minute, they hadn't had time to practice much with the equipment. So they were experimenting with different camera positions and exposure settings. Someone on the ground recorded it. Mr. Sibrel notes several observations which he can't explain in terms of his expectations, therefore he concludes the astronauts "must" have been faking it.
pwned...
A pole was holding the flag down on the top, wind is caused by temp change, on the moon there is none. The only reason you see the flag moving (at the bottom corner of it) is because of them moving it, and gravity
who filmed this ?
One and Only - Mr. , no no, Sir Stanley Kubrick
May he Rest in Peace 🙌🏽🎥🕹💡💡📸🔭🛸🛰🚀
good question who film this when 3 people went to the moon two are raising the flag and one stayed in the ship.
I would have to agree with anyone who thinks that sort of comment is inappropriate.
"One small step for man, One giant leap for mankind."
As well as the US at the time, Armstrong believed that this feat was an accomplishment for all of us as a species. Not just white people, not even just the United States! Today is a day to remember how cool it is to be human beings, and recognize what we can do as a species.
I would say camera film quality would be a great argument there.
all this fotage got erased long ago but its slowly comeing together the real fotage
If we never landed on the Moon, then would you kindly explain to me in detail how the mirrors got there?
I'm sorry. I always assumed that protecting the lives of innocent people was more important than sending three guys to the moon so you could skip school.
"Is the lighting decent"?
Aldrin still makes many personal and television appearances. He very much likes talking about his experiences. But he does not like being called a liar in public, which is what he knew Sibrel planned to do.
Protecting the lives of hundreds of innocents living in the Middle East is, yes, far more important than getting three people to walk on the moon a second time.
Yes this would be good as a film because i still dont belive they ever went and can some one explain why the flag is moving when you dont get no wind in space
So you think they were up in earth orbit for two weeks is that what you're saying?
Nice.
I learned in school that they put something over or in it to make the elusion of it blowing
There's also no gravity out there so it wouldn't be hanging either, genius.
They had a wire in it, and wire bends easily when moved.
How do people think the landing was fake....there are pictures of the flag up on the moon
Because the closest star other than the sun is about 5 light years away. And the camera is kinda looking at the ground
you can see that the top doesnt move much
couldn't the camera be on a tripod? :)
yep i always thought that.. i dont think this ever happened
me pueden decir donde y como hicieron sus necesidades fisiológicas estos astronautas?
I think you are trying to ask why NASA doesn't send another manned mission to the moon, but we are in something called an economic crisis right now, and don't have the funding to do so.
And Btw...
Mr. Sibrel has no actual evidence that the Apollo spacecraft stayed in low earth orbit the whole time, nor can he explain how it was able to go for two weeks without being spotted in the night sky. It would have been the brightest object in the sky next to the moon and Venus. And it would have been moving so fast that it would have transited the night sky in about three minutes. Bright, fast-moving objects in the sky attract attention.
Could someone tell me why the flag is fluttering? I thought space didnt have any air. I could be wrong!
Zero G
It had a rod inside it, it only waved when they were putting it in the ground
The first Antarctic lunar meteorite was collected in 1979, and its lunar origin was not recognized until 1982. Furthermore, lunar meteorites are so rare that it is very improbable that they could account for the 382 kilograms of Moon rocks that NASA obtained between 1969 and 1972. Currently, there are only about 30 kilograms of lunar meteorites discovered thus far, despite private collectors and governmental agencies worldwide searching for these for more than 20 years.
There, Ripped to shreds.
Ah, brother...
Theire is no wind its from the engine from the spacecraft which were on when they had landed!
Armstrong gives interviews, but prefers not to appear on camera. He's shy. Everyone who knew him as an obscure test pilot testifies that he preferred keeping to himself. The statement in quotes, "Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies," is not a quote from Armstrong; it's a statement by Sibrel fishing for a less obvious reason why Armstrong refuses to talk to him. For Sibrel to place his own comments in quotes like that, implying that Armstrong said it, is very misleading.
People who hated the idea?

The only thing that has been to the moon is your imagination.
The same reason you can't see stars at night in a bright city - your eyes adjust to the brightness of the city lights, and can't see the dim, contrasting stars.
The reflective surface of the Moon shines a lot of light upward and into the eyes of the camera and astronauts. The stars are thus nonexistent in pictures.
j0nno...na it's not weird ithink cuz yeah they are the 1 who went there so it's like first discover and if any other country did that ithink and im sure it will do the same right...
the flag was fitted with a thin metal rod at the top in order to cause the illusion that it was waving by exagerating the small movments caused by the astronaughts placing it.
hes in mars now
i'm not saying this is fake but the question I have is the stars?Without an atmospere you should see million of stars but I don't see anything.
yea i think they made it back..
But what you must understand is that there's not much point of going to the moon anymore. We've been there, and soon we'll be on Mars.
UberWaiss why not set up bases on the moon
what are we thinking is right sometime doesn't exactly right..
maybe i'm wrong too. why don't we think back to who we are and why we are here.. so we know what exactly we need to do, than we know what are 'they' doing is right or wrong....
Actually the computer was invented by John Atanasov, who was bulgarian. ;)
They could have easily set up a camera on a tripod.
Here is a fun fact, Russia was acually the first nation to go into the moon; but they forgot the camera to record it...
so when they returned to earth no one believed them XD
In the end the when the Americans landed on the moon they removed the Russian flag and replaced it with their own :p
I rest my case...
Or as we say in Norway - Jeg rister min kasse
wind in space?
†he flag was made by sears.
now u r on a good way,its the first step to a better life:)
that`s Hollywood!
Not even in most modern Earth orbit pictures can you see stars. Look at any picture of orbit and most will not have stars.
Why is that Staging? they were practicing with the camera, Sibrel saw the recording, claiming to be a staging, and there you go, One mans opinion is your messias -.-
I love youtube comments.
I am sorry if i make you feeling and thought uneasy.
I didn't said taliban right or wrong.. why don't you read back what i'm just wrote.
as with every other human accomplishment it's only possible thanks to the collective knowledge of the entire human civilization
... even before we were human
never forget
don't be short sighted

hehe
Anyone who has an ounce of brain matter knows that a) the flag is hanging from a bar on top of the flagpole so it doesn't droop (wouldn't look that great being no wind on moon) and that it moves because the ASTRONAUT is moving it, which is physics. And for those who think it's fake because we haven't made a trip since, I have two words for you: money and politics. And if you give me the argument that they dock at the space station all the time, you should know it's much cheaper and less risky.
12 years later
Then why is the flag moving as if there is wind? haha
(i just said that because they say that this landing never really happened and that it was fake)
And btw...
Mr. Sibrel allows you to see only bits and pieces of this evidence which he considers so important. Why is that so you think? maybe because he's just like you and ignores the Truth and sees only what he wants to see?
no wind but vacum... so it will move... It happend..
Jeez... I hope you're kidding...
Right?
lol I think the lkanding on the moon is true but the stars? everywhere on the space are the stars and the suns light its not the reason anyway I love this video... NASA HAPY DAY
The Moon isn't a planet...
Does anyone seriously think that waving looks like wind?
does anyone else think its a bit weird that they put an american flag up...I don't know...just seems weird to me personally.
lmaooo wow people relax..... i was just joking around to piss some people off, but i didnt think this would become such a big argument
dude I believe the landing was real.
You sure you can handle 300 million???
The US are a great Nation. Congratulations to America, this Earth developper.
Compliment from Portugal... (Nation which REALLY brought the developped world to America.)
Maybe NASA was too cheap to send up TWO cameras? lol
no stars
again my believes are not based on sibrel, i do my own research for years.
sibrel was the one who found this unedited footage bcause he had acces to nasas archives.
his intention wasto make a film to proove the moonlandings when he discovered contradictions after contradictions and changed his view of the apollo program.
he was smart enough to realise that he got deceived for decades , thats something u lack for sure:)
however to keep things short: name us ur best unfakable proove wich doesnt turn within seconds into dust when i examine them and wich should make us all believe in moonlandings.:)
didn't anybody watch the mythbusters moon landing special?
Because it costs billions of dollars - and considering we're in recesion doesnt that seem a LITTLE bit stupid?
Plus what would we gain from it?
btw i think they shoulda put a Earth Flag on there. and im pretty sure that Flag says "made in china" on it? ima right? lol but srsly nice jobs lads =D
let me correct somethign there is gravity in the moon. but its low. every body has its own gravity but my ofc mine is useless, ppl dont just glue on me. watch some other videos of space where they drop things in the air where de gravity is zero. they arent blowing papers and stuff and they still wave if they move things
if they landed on the moon they wouldnt quit just doin it once man
FYI...Russians were FIRST in SPACE..i just found out about this...i had no idea before..whaaa
Are You serious? "Flag is blowing???" If so, why is it "blowing" only when the astronauts handle the flagpole??? Why never when no astronaut is even near it?
very clever man ... ha ha
hopefully the flag wont get smashed by a fly rock =D
why's the flag moving...there's no wind on the moon......very fishy?????
lol they can figure out how to go the moon and back but at the time they could'nt even get colour television =/, maybe they should take other trip =D
that's true :D
It's a fact news,,,
They didn't go on the moon
do u know? is there wind in moon ? !NO!
how flag can flap there if there is no wind ?!
i think NASA did not show real moon videos/pics.
this was filmed at area 51
LOL people still believe we have been on the moon ? newsflash : not true
Sarcasm doesn't sound good with letters eyh?...
Yeah well maybe you don't use the same satelite or equipment as NASA did!? Jeeez...
'Yeah they sent them up to the moon with only walkie talkies to communicate'
THINK!
r u sure that was use to protecting people in iraq n palestine?! or just to protect certain type of people who doesn't have right to be protect?!
Duvido muito que o homem tenha um dia pisado na lua
