  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Nothing of what you said can be confirmed by independent sources and we have already established that lasers can bounce off plasma which is the flat earth alternative.
The only thing that you have established is that you believe all of the garbage posted in social media.

Here is an academic source regarding the reflectors on the moon.

The second research goal fo the LUNAR team is to probe the interior structure of the Moon using accurate measurments of the Earth-Moon distance using small retro-reflectors placed on the lunar surface. Several reflectors are already sitting on the Moon, placed by Apollo astronauts and Soviet lunar landers. However, the technology is 40 years old, and significant scientific improvments can be made with newer, more accurate reflectors.​


Composition of the moon:

“The crust of the moon is made up of a rocky surface covered with regolith. As asteroids and meteorites collide with the surface, they blast it into fine pieces that capture imprints (such as Neil Armstrong's famous footprint) in exceptional detail.


The crust of the moon is about 38 to 63 miles (60 to 100 kilometers) thick. The regolith on the surface can be as shallow as 10 feet (3 meters) in the maria or as deep as 66 feet (20 meters) in the highlands.”


The moon is not plasma.

@jonojim1337 , what's so funny about post #2,371?
You think the Astronauts were all lying? Where's your evidence?

I don’t know how else to show you how shadows behave on a spherical object.
Because your theory is wrong? If only TikTok has the proof then you are a fool to believe it.

As I said Russian unmanned space craft landed and placed their own reflectors on the moon in the 70’s . You don’t think the Americans could do the same with an unmanned flight to claim with the reflectors that they actually landed men on the moon . It’s like putting the cart before the horses. I say no Astronaut would have survived the ordeal through the Van Ellen belt to place any reflectors. And that is if they are really there.it is noted that in the myth busters when they went to an observatory to do a laser test to ding one of reflectors . They first shot a laser at the surface of the moon . No Bounce back ??? That is telling. Yet they had been bouncing lasers off the moon since the early 60’s and then they direct their laser to the reflector and of course they get their ping. But no bounce back from the first laser that hit the moons surface. Seems to me someone was screwing with the test. What else do they screw with? Seems the folks there never realised that lasers had been being bounced off the moon since the early 60’s . Now me has to prepare for work. As i said come 2027

Yes they are actors that’s why they have stars in Hollywood. I already told you Buzz Aldrin has admitted it multiple times already you can Google it.

What the hell. Anyone can make up stories like that. Just because the moon reflects laser light doesn’t mean it’s solid or contains reflectors. You can bounce lasers off plasma as well.

Another verifiable evidence you can test for yourself, as has been done by multiple people already feel free to watch it on any platform you want: why are objects in the moon light colder than in the shadow at night?

No. You ignore proven science and factual history. You need to let go of the conspiracy theory nonsense.

So then prove that the reflectors are not on the moon and that the moon is not made of rock. No social media though. You can only use credibly academic or scientific sources.

Here. I’ll let AI answer that one.

Objects in moonlight often feel colder because clear, moonlit nights are prime conditions for radiative cooling, where the ground rapidly loses heat to the cold, clear sky, while being in the "shade" (under cover like a tree or roof) blocks this heat loss, trapping warmth and making it feel relatively warmer, not because moonlight itself is cold. Moonlight is reflected sunlight and carries little heat; the difference is due to what the object isn't experiencing in the shade versus the open, moonlit area.

What ever he believes in Hants was right the North pole is at the center of earth.

In post #2,258 I was explaining the (usual) flat earth 'understanding' of what the North Pole, northern hemisphere, southern hemisphere are. By reading my whole reply it should have been clear that I do not agree with the flat earth. But it's good to know that I am not mis-representing flat earth claims (even if they wrong).

The reason was to point out that the video in post #2,189 was wrong in its understanding of a flat earth. Thus its attempt is invalid at explaining why the stars and moon look different from the southern hemisphere compared with the northern hemisphere.
So please let us know.
(In reply to my comment: "Many flat earth videos not not understand basic flat earth concepts.")

The video in post #2,189 is an example of a flat earther not understanding a flat earth.

How about the time when one of the astronots gave a foreign diplomat a moon rock, which turned out to be petrified wood?

lol you guys make a mountain out of a molehill. A mistake is just that a mistake. How about the other 842 pounds of rock brought back from the moon?

The correct spelling is astronauts.
