Questioning the Moon Landing's Feasibility
The feasibility of sending biological entities into space, particularly through the challenging conditions of the Van Allen radiation belts, is questioned. There is concern over missing evidence, such as tracking data and original footage, which leads to skepticism regarding the authenticity of the moon landing. The Van Allen radiation belts present a significant barrier due to their high radiation levels, and previous attempts like Operation Starfish Prime, which aimed to disrupt these belts with nuclear bombs, had unintended consequences, further increasing radiation levels and impacting satellites. The claim that the moon landing was a greater achievement than merely faking it hinges on the ability to safely navigate such radiation, with no documented instances of living things surviving such exposure to date. The underlying issue raises doubt about whether humanity has actually accomplished the feat of space travel to the moon and back safely.
