If this guy Cooper is right then the government has done a good job in deceiving us, obviously some people believe we landed on the moon and some people don't. In other words, some of us believe what we are told, some of us don't.

Very much like the Bessler's secret controversy.

A couple of years ago there was a documentary on the FOX channel about how NASA perpetrated the hoax and even showed an astrophysicist with a smile saying that for a human to survive the radiation of the Van Allen Belt it would take a wall of lead 6 ft. thick. Maybe someone else saw it also and can set me straight in case my memory is sliping and my hearing is failing.
Too many pros and cons for my taste.
Hec! I believe there is life on the moon :-) I only wish that if they were on the moon they would have taken pictures of their inhabitants to reinforce my belief.

The internet is filled with wacky websites that advance all sorts of conspiracy theories about governments and how they are out to use and abuse their citizens. I think that these sites, for the most part, only represent the paranoia of the people who write for them and, usually, have next to nothing to do with reality.

Yes, the Van Allen radiation belts that surround the earth do pose a radiation hazard for astronauts who might be located in the most intense portions of these belts for prolonged periods of time. However, the shape and intensities of the Van Allen belts were determined a long time ago and space flights are planned so that satellites and astronauts will be operating in certain gaps in these doughnut shaped belts that girdle the Earth so that their exposure to any radiation is virtually zero. With sufficient shielding, it would even be possible to operate safely in the most intense regions of the belts. This shielding would require surrounding the spacecraft with a powerful magnetic field that would deflect incoming electrically charged particles of the Solar Wind and deflect them away from the spacecraft before they could cause a radition injury to the crew.

On 7/6/06, I found, in any overbalanced gravity wheel with rotation rate, ω, axle to CG distance d, and CG dip angle φ, the average vertical velocity of its drive weights is downward and given by:

Vaver = -2(√2)πdωcosφ
