Book Review: NASA Lies by Lawrence Rowe

New post at Substack.

A NASA photographic analysis.

NASA LIES is a book seeking to show fraud in the Apollo moon landings by comparison of the Hasselblad images taken from space and on the surface of the moon mixed with various explanations regarding rocket science and its effects.  In this review I’ll concentrate on the photographs primarily.

NASA Space Images Are Often Faked

 

Latest post at Substack regarding NASA faking space images.

"Fast forward to 2024 and the CGI has gotten to the point of hyper-realism as seen in such films such as The Lord of Rings, Avatar, and a host of sci-fi films and TV shows.  Having a background in photography and CGI I think I am well versed in spotting what is real and what is not.  And much coming out of NASA and the Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL) of late is obviously fake.  Have you seen the NASA image of North America much larger than its actual size?  Or of North America totally in green with no desert areas or snow capped mountains?  It’s all out there.  I fail to understand why with the sophistication of cameras and software to transmit pictures back to earth, they would resort to this nonsense."

Remote Viewing Legend Joe McMoneagle's Remote View Of Mars

 

Always vet what you are being told.

Joe McMoneagle’s 6+ hour interview on the Shawn Ryan Show is an amazing journey to one man’s life starting in military service in Vietnam to becoming one of the pioneers in the field of remote viewing.  RV is no doubt highly controversial.  The idea that one can project the mind to any location on the earth and off the earth and to any point in time, past or future, to see things for gathering intelligence is mind boggling.  But according to McMoneagle, it works and anyone can be trained to remote view.

Awkward Document For NASA Regarding GCR

 

Screen shot from Space Radiation and Risks to Human Health.

When browsing through NASA’s documents every so often one finds statements that do not fit the official account.  And they don’t seem to mind the contractions.   

The document “Space Radiation and Risks to Human Health” by Janice L. Huff, Ph.D., is a case in point.  She is the  Deputy Element Scientist at the NASA Space Radiation Program and this report can be found on NASA’s technical report server. 

What caught my eye was the obvious contradiction regarding the hazards of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and no data to evaluate human health hazards.  Ironically, one of the highlighted bullet points (see above) states there is no shielding that can block GCR.  So if the Apollo astronauts went to the moon, they would have been barraged with the cosmic rays since their capsule’s shielding would not have blocked the rays.  Should they not have the human data? 

GCR also fragments into secondary high energy particles that can as the report states, “damage biomolecules, cells and tissues.”  An illustration shows the rays passing thru a human head.

Interesting how the NASA experts know about cell and tissue damage when they say they have no human data on the health hazards to reply upon.  How do they know this?  Another bullet point is professing the need for more animal experimentation.  Which apparently they haven’t done enough of, if any.

As I wrote in my article “NASA Document Implies No Go To The Moon,” NASA has no misgiving in mocking their own narrative.  In that document from their report server, a chart indicates that the sum total of Apollo radiation exposure for all missions was the same as the Space Shuttle which never left low earth orbit.  The astronaut’s dosimeter readings were the same as being in low earth orbit as well.  The highest exposure goes to the ISS.  Yet if they actually did the moon landings they are being bathed in galactic cosmic rays for the duration of the trip to the moon, on the surface during the exploration phase, and back home again.  The consequences should have been hazardous to the health and cognitive function of the astronauts and eventually, deadly. 

Besides GCR the astronauts would have been exposed to a plethora of radiation both in sis lunar space and on the moon’s surface.  Alpha, Beta, Gamma radiation as well as microwave, x-rays, etc.  These same energies would affect astronauts on the moon as well and in another odd twist, there was no adequate shielding in the suit to block all of these high energy particles.  The weak point being the helmet which was made entirely out of plastic and offered no shielding from the radiation nor any insolation from the extreme heat and cold.  

Did NASA use black budget technology in the shielding?  Unknown.  If not, then we are looking at a con job.

Lunar Geology and Ionizing Radiation

Over at Aulis, a report on lunar radiation has been posted, Lunar Geology and Ionizing Radiationby Bulcsu Siklós, PhD.  This report serves as a devastating rebuttal to the official NASA narrative of landing men on the moon.  Namely, that the radiation on the moon’s surface is too deadly and the Apollo crews did not have sufficient shielding to survive in the lunar environment.

The Right Stuff Never Stumbles

Gemini 7 astronauts Frank Borman and James Lovell.

(Edited with corrections at Substack:  https://georgebailey.substack.com/p/the-right-stuff-never-stumbles)

“The most miraculous thing was when they could get out of the spacecraft and not flop on their faces; and they could go up into the helicopter and get out on the carrier deck and walk pretty well. They were in better physiologic shape than the V crew. Initially, their tilt-table responses were not as bad and did not last as long. It looked more like four-day responses, by far, than eight-day. The calcium loss was the same way. Amazingly, they maintained their total blood volume. They didn't get any decrease, but they did it in a peculiar way. They lost the red-cell mass still, but they replaced the plasma-they put more fluid in. Apparently, there had been enough time for an adaptive phenomenon to take place.”

On The Shoulders Of Titans, p. 294

From sea legs to space legs.

The effects of weightlessness on the human body are well documented such as muscle degradation, calcium loss and other physical irregularities.  The problems do not end there.  Astronauts once returned to earth and gravity have a difficult time getting readjusted to having weight and mass and spatial orientation.  They can have trouble talking and have blood pressure issues.  Even the immune system can be compromised causing an astronaut to battle a minor infection.  In many ways it is similar to sailors getting their “sea legs” once back on land after being months at sea.  

Basically, zero gravity messes with your body.

Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti.

As astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti after her 200 days in space said, “Your co-ordination, your balance, all the little tiny muscles that you don’t even know you have but that help you to sit upright and walk upright”—all that was gone.” This required her to experience weeks of rehabilitation after returning from space.  Walking was so difficult that Cristoforetti remarked that her legs felt like “tree trunks.”

Shuttle astronaut Dr. Anna Fisher remarked, “Also in your sensory canals there is a mismatch between what you’re feeling and seeing so it take a while to adapt not only to get your space legs when you come back you find you are actually walking down the hall at an angle because you have to recalibrate to not moving all over the place.”

These astronauts are examples of how prolong space travel affects them physically and the hard work required to get back to normal physical health.  

Space tourist Dennis Tito unable to walk after landing.

And lastly, space tourists.  So far the list is Dennis Tito, Mark Shuttleworth, Gregory Olsen, Anousheh Ansari, Rick Tumlinson and Guy Laliberté. None of them can walk or remove themselves from the capsule after landing without help.  Once removed they are placed in chairs and then toted off the landing field.  They are never seen walking away.  Most space tourists spend around 10 to 12 days on the ISS.  That seems to be enough time to stop their ability to move independently and orient themselves upon landing and returning to normal life. 

The Enigma Of Gemini And Apollo Astronauts 

Incredibly, the after effects of being in weightlessness had no noticeable effects on the astronauts of the Gemini and Apollo programs.  

The leading quote above is from page 294 of On The Shoulders Of Titans by Barton C. Hacker and James M. Grimwood.  The physical effects of returning to earth from space were well known to NASA early on.  After being two weeks in space there little trouble for Gemini 7 astronauts Frank Borman and James Lovell walking on the deck of the carrier the USS Wasp after stepping off the rescue helicopter.  The authors referred to it as a “miraculous thing” that they didn’t stumble and fall on their faces.  And finally ending with the quote, “Apparently, there had been enough time for an adaptive phenomenon to take place.”

What kind of adaptive phenomenon would that have been?  Seems like they are grasping for straws.  They have no answer for how these two men who spent two weeks in weightlessness, with no exercise, immediately upon landing could walk without a fuss.  Clearly, the adaptive phenomenon is not at work now.  Astronauts, cosmonauts and space tourists are incapacitated of walking upon landing. The alleged miracle is hung in the air, will never be officially answered, and it will remain as it is, a mystery. 

(Likewise, the other returning Gemini astronauts had not problem walking on a carrier deck after arriving from their respective flights.)

Apollo 8 crew after landing in 1968 after spending 7 days in space.

This ability to walk after along spaceflight, which apparently cannot be done now, is evident in the above photographs of the Apollo 8 crew stepping out of their chopper aboard the USS Yorktown.  There are many other photos of the astronauts being greeted by the captain and crew. Everybody is smiling and nobody is having any issues adjusting to gravity.  It is as if they never left earth.

Apollo 13 crew right after landing.

This ability to walk after along spaceflight, which apparently cannot be done now, is evident in the above photograph of the Apollo 13 crew stepping out of their chopper aboard the USS Iwo Jima.  There are many other photos of the astronauts showing them on deck during a prayer service, shaking hands with the Iwo Jima’s captain and officers and having a dinner with the officers and crew of the ship.  Everybody is smiling and nobody is having any issues adjusting to gravity.  It is as if they never left earth.

While their mission was cut short, lasting only 5 days, that is apparently enough time to disable the ability to walk upon return to earth.  This was experienced by Russian cosmonaut Viktor Gorbatko in 1967 who could not walk after landing from a 5 day mission.  Other Russian missions, such as Soyuz 9 in 1970, both cosmonauts after an 18 day mission could not walk till 6 days after landing.  Except for long stays on the ISS and select space shuttle missions, no NASA astronaut has these issues.

How did the astronauts walk on the moon?

In Closing

I am disappointed to conclude that it appears that the Gemini and Apollo Astronauts were not in space as long as has been officially reported.  The effects of zero G are well documented and known for over 50 years.  The idea that these astronauts, especially the Gemini crews, shown no evidence of physical problems makes no sense.  They should have had issues.  But we see these men returning from space without as much as a hitch in their giddyup.  This is the closest thing I have seen regarding fraud in the United States space program.  

 Astronaut Anne McClain being helped out of capsule after landing.

End Notes

Gemini 7 was launched in 1965 and at the time was the longest NASA space orbital mission lasting 14 days.

On The Shoulders Of Titans is an in-house NASA publication documenting the history of the Gemini program.

At the time of her interview, astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti set the 200 day record for the longest period in space for a European woman astronaut.  Record broken in 2017 by Peggy Whitson.

Zero Gravity and Microgravity are interchangeable.  It appears that zero-G has fallen out of favor.

Apollo 11 astronauts Neal Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin spent 6 days in space before landing.  Did the 1/6 gravity help them with walking on the moon?  Micheal Collins did not land but was in space for a total of 10 days.  He had no issues leaving the spacecraft for rescue or walking afterward.  But the space tourists spending 10 days in space do.

If it takes a year to travel to Mars, how are the astronauts going to walk when they get there?  They would need an artificial gravity system for the trip.  Is that in development?

Update

"U.S. space agency NASA announced in June that it plans to allow two private citizens a year to stay at the ISS at a cost of about $35,000 per night for up to a month. The first mission could be as early as 2020."

We shall see of the latest batch of space tourists can walk after landing.

Book Review: Fashioning Apollo by Nicholas de Monchaux

(Updated at: https://georgebailey.substack.com/p/its-an-empty-suit)

It’s An Empty Suit

Spacesuit--Fashioning Apollo is one of the most elegant and beautifully designed and printed books available.  It’s a paperback edition but the cover jacket has a smooth, rubberized coating.  It’s a pleasure to hold in one’s hands.  This is an experience that no digital book can ever match.  

Although published in 2011 by M.I.T. Press​,​ the information regarding the NASA spacesuits, with the emphasis on the Apollo suits is relatively up to date.  The author explores the development of spacesuits from the early pressure suits in the 1930’s onward to the space program of the 1960’s.  There is not much to be said in this book regarding spacesuits in the Shuttle era and beyond.  The author Nicholas de Monchaux does provide a good history of suit development for mankind’s reach for the stars.  

Since this book is published by the United States’s most distinguished science and engineering universities I was looking for various technical details that unfortunately, this book does not provide.  And that was the main reason I bought this book in the first place.  It is in fact, more of an easy reading account of spacesuit development for the masses.

Radiation

“NASA’s focus now is on sending humans beyond low-Earth orbit to Mars… We are trying to develop the technologies to get there, it is actually a huge technological challenge. There are a couple of really big issues. For one thing – Radiation. Once you get outside the Earth’s magnetic field we are going to be exposing the astronauts to not just radiation coming from the Sun, but also to cosmic radiation. That's a higher dose than we think humans right now should really get.”

– Dr Ellen Stofan, Chief Scientist, NASA, and principal advisor

to NASA Administrator – BBC Newsnight interview, November 2014

"Astronauts on the lunar surface could in reality be exposed to every kind of radiation – alpha, beta, microwave, x-ray, gamma, Bremsstrahlung, Cherenkov radiation, Askaryan radiation, high-energy protons and neutrons, galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and solar particle events (SPE)."

LUNAR GEOLOGY AND IONIZING RADIATION from a Revisionist Perspective

– Dr Bulcsu István Siklós

There are many hazards in space once people leave the safety of the protective magnetosphere of the earth and radiation is one of the main hazards.  It’s coming from everywhere and fills the vacuum of space.  There are cosmic galactic rays, gamma rays, x rays, charged protons and neutrons, just to mention a few.  The surface of the moon is basically a nuclear hazmat zone.  Even the famous moon dust is radiative.  That, coupled with extremes of heat and cold in a heavy vacuum, designates the surface of the moon a place where no life could ever exist.

My main interest was discovering the radiation protection in the spacesuits.  As it turned out, the book mentions nothing about it.  There is no documentation of radiation shield development, testing, or anything related.  Even the word “radiation” is not listed in the index.  The fact that 21 layers of various synthetic materials were used and not a single one has a reference to radiation in a book such as this, is a major omission.  On the contrary, it is not mentioned by NASA either.  One would think radiation shielding would be one of the most important aspects of a spacesuit, and it has no bearing in this book.  (It should be noted that the Apollo spacesuit manual, linked below, which can be downloaded from NASA makes no mention of radiation protection in the suit or helmet either.)

It is unconscionable to believe that the astronauts would be placed in such a hazardous environment without protection from one of the main hazards they faced on the surface of the moon--death by high energy particles. 

The multiple layers of insulation for thermal protection are documented, particularly the use of aluminized mylar which is listed for thermal protection.  So at least the astronauts had protection for heat over 200 degrees and cold temperatures of over -200 degrees on the moon.  But the development of this material gets no mention.   How was plastic and a metal bonded together?  How does it work to protect an astronaut?  How was it tested for this purpose?  The reader is never told. ​​Just as the beta cloth covering gets nothing more than a vague mention.

Is radiation shielding in the spacesuits classified?

Don’t leave out the helmet!

Yes, it is left out of any mention in relation to spacesuit development and astronaut protection for the moon's hazardous environment.  If one reads the NASA Apollo spacesuit manual, it mentions the helmet being constructed out of polycarbonate.  In other words, plastic.  The visor assembly was polycarbonate as well.  Another fact that Fashioning Apollo makes no mention of since helmet development is ignored.

But the most distressing part of my own research into this matter involves finding that the spacesuit helmet has no thermal or lethal radiation protection of any kind, as so stated in the NASA spacesuit manual.  It does feature a beta cloth covering but that is just flame retardant cloth with fiberglass woven in.  It does not protect from the aforementioned hazards.  To be fair, the gold visor does protect the astronaut’s eyes from damaging ultraviolet rays but those rays are not life threatening.  It can hardly be expected for a thin layer of plastic to protect a person from the harmful radiation and severe heat and cold.  Why put thermal protection in the suit but ignore the helmet?  How the astronauts, if they actually walked on the moon, survived being there is a mystery.  A big enough mystery to strongly question if men actually landed there at all.

Do their heads not matter? 

In closing

There is so much more that could have been written in Fashioning Apollo to round out what the public can know about spacesuits.  The history of development is good but the author often jumps into fashion design of the 1950’s, how television works from the moon, JFK, the flight simulators, artist Robert Rauschenberg’s astronaut prints, and then leaves the reader in the lurch for the good stuff.  The radiation shielding should hold an important place in a book of this kind, but it is never covered.  

What is to be found here?  An empty suit.

The Mystery of Apollo 13

Will We Ever Know the True Story On Apollo 13?

Jim Lovell’s book reads like an account of the movie Apollo 13 rather than a story of the actual event he participated in.   Some of the science in the book is flawed and some of it ranks as absurd.  In other areas the documenting of dialogue exchanges between the Apollo 13 astronauts and Mission Control are provably false.  I am at a loss to explain why this was done since Lovell and co-writer Jeffrey Kluger are supposed to be telling us the truth.  There are enough voices crying “fake” regarding the moon landings as-is and this book’s flaws just adds more reasons for their theories.

Center of gravity in no gravity…

Shortly after the fuel cells blew the Command Service Module (CSM) and Lunar Landing Module (LM) were thrown out of wrack.  The attitude control was thrown off and Jim Lovell’s job was to get the trajectory to conform to the flight path, which he accomplished after some difficulty.  

On page 148 in Lovell’s book it is stated that the added “weight” of the command module, coming in at 63,400 pounds, was causing the problem. It was actually stated that the attached CSM's weight which was throwing off “the center of gravity” of the ships.  Is there a center of gravity in no gravity?  Of course not!  Everything weighs nothing.  And how did the CSM suddenly gain weight in zero G?  Please note this is not an issue on a normal mission when the CSM is in control and LM is docked and not being used to transit to the moon.  

All of this is patently absurd.  Co-author Jeffrey Kluger, an otherwise good science writer obsoletely failed the readers with this nonsense.  It should also be noted in NASA’s Apollo 13 Mission Report, that none of this was ever mentioned regarding weight throwing off the guidance system.  I am surprised Jim Lovell let this go through, or anything such as this, is written in a serious book on this near fatal disaster.  After all, this book is a reprint of Lost Moon, originally published in the 1994, and this flaw, with a host of others, is in that book as well.  There clearly was enough time to correct this.

And to go even further, it is stated on page 225 that the added weight of the CSM was checked out in the flight simulator by two astronauts to see if it would effect the guidance system.  No problems found.  Of course not!  The very idea that they would be doing a test in a simulator when they have to know the CSM weighs nothing in zero gravity, is astonishing.  

(Also, the LM’s weight is never noted.  It was still weightless?  Of course it was as the CSM had to be.)

(None of this reported CSM weight issue is mentioned in NASA technical reports such as the Apollo 13 Guidance, Navigation, and Control Challenges report,  Apollo 13 Mission Report, and the Apollo 13 Flight Journal transcripts.  Links below.)

Pulling the bio-med sensors

Jim Lovell’s irritation with his biomed sensors and the removal of them made for a fine dramatic effect in the Apollo 13 movie, when actor Tom Hanks in the role of Lovell, ripped his off.  

However, it made for the worst part the book because the incident is falsely presented with an invented conversation between Lovell and mission control that never happened.  As the book describes, after Lovell removed the biomeds he was concerned that he would get a lecture by flight controller Vance Brand who supposedly knew he had done this.  He was not reprimanded but was told to turn off his biomedical transmission switch.  The fact is, this conversation is not recorded in Apollo Flight Journal transcript.  According to the transcript, Lovell was told by flight controller Joseph Kerwin to turn off the biomed switch in the LM to conserve power.   Nothing more.  Also, The Apollo 13 Flight Journal, states that once the CM was powered down, all biomed data from the astronauts was no longer being transmitted to NASA.  Brand, if he had actually talked to Lovell would have known this and would not have been able to detect that Lovell’s sensors had been removed.  Besides, at that point, the astronauts were not plugged in to any ports to upload the data.  However, they might have had wireless data transmission since the sensors were connect to the biomes belt the astronauts wore.  But this is unclear in any NASA documentation available. It is clear that to communicate with ground control, they had to be plugged in via a comm cable.

So, the incident as reported by Lovell and Kruger is false, according to NASA’s official transcript.  It is unknown why they would bear a false witness regarding this incident.  

Even the official report features odd flaws

Just as Lowell’s book features constant references to measurements based on pounds, so does the Apollo 13 Mission Report.  For example, it is stated on page 5-11, that 55 pounds of propellent was used for third stage buster separation. On page 5-13, before the command module was shut down, 14 pounds of water were transferred from the CM to the LM.  Overall, some thirteen pages of the report reference pounds as a measuring system.

I am surprised that in an official report such as this, the use of “pounds” being used as a unit of measurement while in zero gravity.  In zero G, how would they know the exact weight say, of water in a tank?  How did they measure 14 pounds of water in zero G?  There is no gravity, hence no weight.  In my research, I have yet to find an answer for this. I don’t see this questioned anywhere.  I also don’t know why the moon Hoaxer crowd hasn’t jumped on this as evidence of fakery.  After all, the only place pounds could be measured would be on a sound stage in Earth.

Even one of the electronic schematics is wrong, showing an output component with no input listed.  There would be no output without an input.

Question

Why are none of of the reviewers of this book on Amazon catching any of this?  

Will we ever know what happened?

Overall, Apollo 13 reads like a dumbed down account of what happened aboard this doomed ship.  Too much dramatic license is taken to the point of making things up.  It’s an insult to the brave men who nearly lost their lives, and to the superb group of technicians and engineers that helped bring them home safely.

The public which paid for the space program deserves the truth.
