Speaking of the fake moon landings (HPG), and photos (StrawMan), I highly recommend this video, which I posted and commented on in here 3 years ago. NASA moon-landing astronauts produced a VOLUMINOUS collection of photos from their supposed time on the moon. And what they produced is simply -----> ...

Because after rockets liftoff and achieve orbit it takes one to three days to synchronize the same orbit and speed of the ISS to dock safely. Who in their right mind would watch a 1-3 day video?

The ISS was never designed to re-enter Earth's atmosphere. It was designed and built to exist and orbit Earth in micro-gravity. It would burn up on re-entry, which is exactly what will happen when it is de-commissioned. Is there a machine shop on the ISS? I don't know. Maybe a Duck Duck Go search w...

I watched the speech, and it was very boring. He spoke at a Catholic school, so the content of his speech was fairly predictable.
