Did men really walk on the moon?
Details of the RCS are given on page 4 of this pdf: https://history.nasa.gov/alsj/nasa-tnd-6846pt.1.pdfNote the RCS thrusters in podromos' picture. RCS = Reaction Control System. The RCS thrusters are pointed in different directions to provide attitude control so the vessel doesn't spin like a top.

Funny how they need to do this now, but i have found no mention of the need to do this in the 1960's. You would think that they, would have this down pat, after all they did this several times in the 60' and 70's
“Flying” a Lunar Lander, Right Here on Earth
'Flight simulators' are needed to train airline pilots these days but, before they were invented, man still learnt to fly the 'mechanical' way!
Funny that!
It was designed for lunar gravity. It wouldn't have worked 'down here'. But they could mimic it.-
How many times were rockets launched, before a succesful rocket launch was made. How many times was this Lunar module launched before they would ensure a successful return back to the space craft.
I personally would like to see videos of the Lunar module being launched from earth. and fly around.

If nothing else, this shows how dangerous the mission actually was. And what a cool dude Armstrong was.
How did they get in the raqia to get to the moon.
Hey, you wanted to see actual footage of them practicing flying the thing. Now you've seen it. How about granting people like Armstrong some kudos for what they were doing. This was brand new technology and that simulator would obviously not work exactly as it would on the moon, so the guy was risking his life just lifting off in that thing. You saw how close he was to being killed and all you can do is make trite comments about him?-
They know how to play the game, show just enough to keep the believers hooked and to think what a cool and brave dude the astronauts are.

Worse than that, it is coming from people who call themselves Christian.Enough men and women have been killed 'playing this game'. Some of them not even having left the ground. And you want to belittle their courage and smirk at their sacrifice and cast aspersions on their integrity?
It's shameful.

I'm reminded of that quote from Gandhi:
"I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians, they are so unlike your Christ."
They flew through a window.
Genesis 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

-How does that work, God will not man build a tower miles high, but will let man fly to His moon he created according to scientist 300,000 miles away from earth.
Technology was developing too rapidly back then.
Genesis 11:5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
And God put an effective end to it.
Genesis 11:6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
-...I still do not see whats the difference now. Has man all of the sudden cleaned up his sinful nature. That now God will allow man to travel hundreds of miles from earth.
