They weren't in Zero Gravity on the moon. They were in a gravity field just like the earth - only 1/6 as strong due to the moon's lower mass. The footage from the moon is not "terrible" but it does reflect that state of TV technology in the late 1960/early 1970s. The footage from the last three missions was pretty good in my view - although it would be fantastic to think how good modern TV cameras and digital technology would portray the scene.

@Ca1861 Same here,back then I thought it was only a temp thing for bigger and better things.I knew they still had 3 Saturn 5 intact ready to go.So I didn't think they would be wasted.I found out some years ago there was even a second series of Saturn 5's on order.I presume the original plan was to have at least a dozen more missions.Imagine how far we would have been if the program wasn't cancelled like it was mankinds greatest high point.

There are no stars in the sky, but that is an exposure thing. It's pretty easy to take a picture and show a sky with no lights, just uses a super bright light source.

The pressure suit and PLSS mass was about 82kg, as much as the astronaut. Add the suit stiffness under pressure and I'm not surprised they didn't jump higher. But Neil Armstrong did a squat jump up several rungs of the LM ladder at the end of the EVA. The mass of the backpacks was demonstrated by the forward angle at which they stood to balance.

A great deal of preparation and experiment went into getting to the moon.. it's all there, the Mercury & Gemini programs and then Apollo. It wasn't all perfect all the time, but eventually they worked it out and did it. I just wish NASA had the budget it needed to go back. It'd be nice if we didn't need to spend so much on defence and that money could mostly go to NASA instead. Can you imagine?

It's not a cable, it's a VHF blade antenna much like a metal tape measure. We hams actually use tape measure blades on many of our satellites; they make excellent deployable antennas. How else did they communicate? They're in a vacuum, ya know.

@LightninLew Television cameras back then were not very compact, something needed for the Apollo missions. A small camera was specially designed for the missions but with technology of the day it had to take a hit in terms of image quality. However, the individual photographs taken by the astronaunts on their 70mm Hasselblads are typically well exposed...and there is your nerd moment of the day!

We need more than 3 people for a moon landing. In order to design the Saturn V and the LEM and everything else that needed to be built, over 400,000 people worked hard for more than 7 years. Now that NASA is building Orion and Artemis to return man to the moon, tens of thousands of men and women are working hard to design and build the machines. It takes thousands of people to put 3 people on the moon. The Apollo Astronauts did not get there all by themselves. Not to mention the tax money.

it's not zerograv, the moon got 1/6 of earth gravitional force - means a naked male athlet could high-jump about 8.20 meters (center of gravity in a 6ft body, about 1 m up so if your champ makes 2.20 m in sports, that is actually just hieving the center of gravity by 1.20 m )

No, a 10m drop on the moon would give 5.72 m/sec. A 10m drop on the earth would give 14 m/sec. There'd be 6x as much potential energy 10m above the earth than the moon. Kinetic energy goes as velocity squared. (14/5.72) squared is 6. So a 10m drop on the moon would be like a 10/6 = 1.67m drop on the earth.

On a dark night, i want you to go under a lamppost and look up at the night sky and see if you see any stars? i bet you wont, secondly they were on the light side of the moon meaning it generally will be harder to see stars and if you take a picture under the lamppost you will not capture any stars, even if they are there

@fowzie777 You won't find many answers to your questions on KZitem, but those answers are out there. You just have to make sure you use reputable sources of information. Those with a "conspiracy theory" driven agenda very rarely (if ever) come from a scientific/engineering background. That should immediately ring an alarm bell for you. Do you really think that relatively unqualified people are going to spot genuine "anomalies" in the Apollo data whilst countless scientists & engineers do not?
