It was as weird night in my project management class. We were discussing an article that concerned project management problems associated with NASA projects. At one point, the professor says something about people not believing that people actually landed on the moon. Strange, because a recent episode of my favorite radio talk show, Coast to Coast AM, addressed this very same issue a few days ago. The guest on that show claimed that people couldn’t have landed on the moon because they would die passing through the Van Allen radiation belts. That, in and of itself, seemed plausible enough, but I’m still not sure if that could prohibit a trip to the moon. While I am into conspiracy theories, I don’t believe all of them. Still, I felt a little embarrased that I even knew so much about the moon hoax theory.
In the case of the moon hoax theory, someone on C2C (not sure what day) stated that NASA had the technology to shield astronauts from the radiation of the Van Allen radiation belt, since they recovered it from the alien spacecraft that crashed at Roswell. I’m not sure, but I think the person making that claim was serious. Anyway, with all the troubles and problems of sending people into space AND Hollywood expertise, it seems that it would be much easier to convince people that we went to the moon than to actually send someone. If the moon’s so cool, then why don’t we go back sometime? Oh, yeah, I forgot, it was the moon shard and other strange structures on the moon. Scary stuff, but it’s probably just some leftover camera equipment or something like that…
