There's other proofs for the ball though right? Why else would a pendulum rotate? Surely it has something to do with the rotation of... wait.
What happened to relative motion? The atmosphere is supposedly rotating with the earth so there should be no rotation imparted on a swinging ball, right?

it didnt. that's the lunar lander. Went down to the moon's surface, came back up, and was then jettisoned and crashed down onto the moon's surface.

This part - the command module - is the only piece of the entire thing that came back down in re-entry.

This is a video that was presented by every single news outlet as proof that alQueda had training grounds in Afghanistan, and it featured this, a motorcycle training and some more, and CNN, MSNBC, BBC, et all had it on a constant loop every time they spoke about Afghanistan right after 9/11.

But it was a fake. It was produced by Jack Idema, a major con artist who also got Robin Moore to write a book called 'The Hunt for bin Laden' about Idema's one man Army in Afghanistan in the early 2000's.

He trolled the entire world with a video he shot and produced in the US desert. And even got a book made after his fake adventures.

>How did the moonlander take off from the moon?

by having a second engine underneath it.

(the lander was two parts: Descent module, consisting of the landing legs, a throttled engine that was used to slowly decelerate to land, and a ladder, (and in later missions, the rovers, which were folded up sort of like a fold-away bed.). The second module was the Ascent Module, which is what the crew were inside. It consisted only of the crew compartment, and an engine. no need for all the legs and bits like that after landing, so they were just left on the surface.

So when it launched, that engine fired, and only the crew part went back up. Here's a video of the ascent, which was recorded by a remote TV camera set up on the surface:

>You'd think they would roast alive in the conical part as it re enters.

they would.

but it re-enters with the base of the cone pointing towards the ground, not the pointy end. it effectively goes in backwards. (whish also helped protect the crew from g-forces - they were pushed into their seats, instead of being thrown forward that way)

if it did go in pointy-end first, they'd have burnt up.

the blunt end has a heat shield, pretty much exactly the same as the shuttle's belly, only not reusable.

here's what apollo 12's heat shield looks like, after the heat from reentry.

>Amazing really, considering how difficult it is to take of from Earth.

pretty easy, in many ways.
the moon has 1/6th the gravity - so you have far less gravity to fight against.

more importantly, it has no atmosphere. 3/4 of a rocket's fuel is used just fighting through that 100 miles of air that drags against it and slows it down. no air = no drag, so you dont need a huge rocket.

plus, because they were docking with the main command module, they didnt have to go far - the command modules orbited at about 100 miles above the moon's surface - Far, far less fuel than if the module were having to get all the way back to earth.

>>724255532
Just a normal rocket. Moon gravity isn't as strong. This is even when it comes back.
