Thought I let you guys know about this young lady's work. A lot of very informative videos that I think most here will find interesting. Some people complain about her delivery style but I don't mind it. Nice to see somebody with so much enthusiasm about some less known topics. Try to keep the marriage proposals down a bit please. The poor girl has enough to contend with from the space geek crowd. lol

Your right about that. Pretty amazing how they keep coming up with additional conspiracies to explain such things as the Russians verifying the landings or the 400,000 people involved with Apollo not revealing anything about the supposed hoax. The things they will come up with rather then admit they are wrong.

Not sure if you have noticed that there seems to be a surge lately in the flat-Earth believers. According to the moon hoaxheads, this is actually another conspiracy orchestrated by NASA to discredit and belittle their cause since the flat-Earth are being lumped in with them. Really boggles the mind sometimes.

Well I'm at it, here's a couple old James Burke episodes about the Apollo program that are very informative:

There's a pretty hilarious segment at about the 1:04:00 mark where Jim Lovell discusses the long duration Gemini mission with Frank Borman.


Some great info about some of the challenges along with why the program was eventually cut back:
