For Apollo 11-14, the PLSS could provide up to 4 hours of oxygen, cooling, and CO2 removal. It carried 1.5 lbs of oxygen at 1,020 psi, 3 lbs of lithium hydroxide for CO2 removal, and 8.5 lbs of cooling water.

For the extended missions of Apollo 15-17, the PLSS was upgraded to enable 8 hours of EVA time. This was achieved by increasing the oxygen supply to 1.8 lbs at 1,430 psi, lithium hydroxide to 3.12 lbs, and cooling water to 11.5 lbs.


Regarding divers:

Even with hard work doubling the metabolic rate, a 3-liter oxygen cylinder can provide over 5 hours of dive time, while a 2-liter cylinder offers around 3 hours.


No idea where did you get 1 hour vs 22 hours.

Verifiably false, but of course @Apple Sky "Likes" it.

Scuba tanks also contain mostly Nitrogen whereas the Astronauts supply was pure oxygen. Skuba divers have to breath in a lot more air because the air in their lungs is compressed to compensate for the pressurised environment they are swimming in, otherwise their chest would be crushed by the water pressure. At 10m depth they have to breath twice as much air as they do on the surface. They also exhale a lot of unused oxygen with each breath which is lost unless they are using a rebreather apparatus. The Astronauts space suit has an internal pressure of around 0.3 atmospheres, so they breath in a lot less gas but it is all oxygen, and none of the oxygen is wasted. As they exhale the Carbon Dioxide is scrubbed, but they can keep breathing until their oxygen is nearly depleted, as none of the oxygen they breath out is lost.

Is pure oxygen good for you?


Oxygen is a medication that requires a prescription from a healthcare provider. You should only use oxygen therapy as a medical treatment. If you take in more oxygen than your body needs, it can slow your breathing and heart rate to dangerous levels. Too much oxygen can lead to oxygen toxicity or oxygen poisoning.

This is a short TikTok video on Gab about the moon landing and flat earth. I recommend anyone to watch it, regardless of your beliefs.

Everything on that video has been debunked many times before. Perhaps you should read through the thread first before posting.

The air pressure in their suits and inside the command and lunar modules was greatly reduced to compensate.

Can you explain how everything in the video was debunked?

How did the vehicle get on the moon with the little space craft that the astronauts came out of? How do you explain the clouds being in the same exact shape for two different years on the pictures of globe earth? Etc.

If you can provide references to all the parts of the video, sure.
How did the vehicle get on the moon with the little space craft that the astronauts came out of?
That is something you are easily capable of finding out yourself with a simple search.


How do you explain the clouds being in the same exact shape for two different years on the pictures of globe earth? Etc.
They are obviously the same picture. Where do you ever find NASA claiming otherwise?

As I said at the beginning, I will need to see references or links to sources for each of the claims made on the video. I've seen many of the claims before, and they've all turned out to be false.

Even so, 5 hours is a far cry from 22 hours.

The 22 hours you've quoted is a made up number. It is a lie which you have happily repeated without checking first.

Forgive me. You "liked" it. It's just been you posting this kind of stuff for a while and I forgot it was another person's post.
You did repeat the 22 hour however claim despite it having already been shown a false claim

It's not a false claim, the only people making false claims are these astronauts & NASA.

Rob obviously had no idea how jpeg image compression works. All those people who use photoshop to 'discover' rectangle artifacts in the images near where there is a sharp change in contrast, are not using the RAW camera images but instead the compressed .jpg images, which introduces such artifacts as part of the image compression. Such artifacts are also more pronounced in stills taken from compressed video.

Please show us where NASA ever claimed the oxygen in the spacesuits could last them 22 hours

Having dug a little bit, I believe I have found where the "22 hours" came from. The Apollo 11 Lunar Module spent 22 hours on the surface of the moon, and while the astronauts were wearing their spacesuit for the entire mission, they were only using the oxygen from the life support backpack when they were outside the Lunar Module. When inside the Lunar Module, the hatch was closed and the craft was filled with oxygen so they were able to remove their helmets. The Lunar Module descent stage had two oxygen tanks with 48 pounds of oxygen each
Armstrong and Aldrin were only outside the Lunar Module for a little over 2 hours. Later Apollo missions spent more time outside.

A rail system would make sense although I would be interested to read why they want to use a maglev. If you could kindly link the original article that would be appreciated.
