German moon mission to finally silence moon landing conspiracy theorists?

[PLAfiller]

Moon is still fascinating to me. It has to be something we can do with it I am for this little expedition.

Well there is. For further manned exploration of the Solar System it is a perfect launch point. Having a base there would make things more feasible. For years NASA had a plan to use it as a jump off point for continued Mars presence. It may not happen now though.

As soon as my compatriots are there they can dust the LLR (made in Germany) which we use daily at the Technical University of Munich.

Buzz once punched a guy who asked him to swear on the bible that the moon landings were real.....

Real footage.......

That asshole "reporter" was doing worse than just asking him to swear on the Bible. At least the writer clarified in the last paragraph what had really transpired leading up to Buzz putting that shithead in his place: "My guess is that calling a man who literally sat atop a controlled explosion to explore the unfathomable abyss “a coward, and a liar, and a thief” had something to do with this:" If I remember correctly, that wasn't their first encounter either and apparently Buzz finally had enough.... don't think you can poke an old-school military vet with a stick and not encourage their wrath. I'm getting quite pissed thinking about it again and absolutely love watching that smug f*ck get what's coming to him.

Well good for Aldrin then. That silly ass reporter got what was coming to him.

These are the first images of the prototype humanoid robot Vladimir Putin hopes will conquer the moon for Russia.

The 'cyber cosmonaut' will be sent to the International Space Station ahead of tackling more ambitious tasks on the lunar landscape.

Pictures show the robot walking, lifting heavy weights, using power tools, performing press-ups and even driving with Russian experts hoping it will one day be able to help build a base on the moon.

The robot can 'crawl, stand up after falling down, take and leave driver's seat in a car, use tools and operate in a regular building'.

Fedor stands 6ft tall, weighs between 106-160 kg depending on extra equipment, and can lift up to 20 kg of cargo.

Vladimir Solntsev, general director of Russian rocket-making corporation Energia, said: 'Our involvement in the Fedor-based space robot project will bring us to the next level in the development of robotic technologies.'

Alexander Grebenshchikov, director of the TSNIImash laboratory of space robotics, said: 'Every hour of work of cosmonauts on space walks costs from $2 million to $4 million (USD).

'The use of robots for routine operations in the future will also spare additional time of the crew for leisure or for the fulfillment of other important tasks.'

Fedor is the equivalent in Russian for Theodore, although in this case it is an acronym standing for Final Experimental Demonstration Object Research.

Running windows 10 I see.

This pic makes me think of @silentbogo , i dont know why

 

[rtwjunkie]

I don't know which is scarier, the robot working on circuits, or driving.

Also, is it just me, or his equilibrium is not very good yet when standing? Ropes are holding FEDOR up.

Brian Williams was there, , , , , live!!

I'm 100% positive we landed on the moon. Heck, we've got tons of videos showing Michael Jackson doing a moonwalk.

I'd prefer to see a video of Hotblack Desiato jamming.

 

[dont whant to set it"']

Cant seem to find an animation of popcorn poping on the moon to about 10-20ft high . I gots no skillz at animation.
