The most damning evidence the Apollo missions were faked lies within the Saturn V engines

When Anons discuss the Apollo missions, I don’t think most of you comprehend how ludicrous the official specs of the Saturn V are. Here are a few of the basics.

The fully loaded Saturn V would have weighed in at 6.2 million pounds (3100 tons) fully loaded. The first stage of the Saturn V produced 7.5 million lbs of thrust using 5 F-1 rocket engines. This is the part where it gets ridiculous. That means each engine should have been producing 1.5 million lbs of thrust each (at sea level).

To put things into perspective, the SpaceX Falcon Heavy uses 27 Merlin 1D engine that produce 220,500 lbs of force each generating roughly 5.9 million pounds of thrust in total. The Space Shuttle used 3 RS-25 engines producing 418,000 lbs of thrust each. The SLS Program is simply revising old Space Shuttle engines and boosting them to about 512,000 lbs of thrust each. These are among the most powerful rocket engines humanity has ever created and they pale in comparison to the F-1’s.

Before color television became popular during the era of the slide rule, engineers created rocket engines that were 3 times more powerful than what we are capable of producing today. That technology was “lost” and even though we still have the original plans, NASA officials literally say we cannot reproduce the work because everything was done by hand and they are missing the handwritten notes from workers (youtu.be/ovD0aLdRUs0).

Yes, the Saturn V rockets were real and were launched into space for the TV cameras. However, that does not mean they were loaded with astronauts, lunar lander equipment, nor were they even fully fueled. All they had to do was get the thing into low Earth orbit and fake the rest of it. Everything was compartmentalized. Only a few people in key positions would have known what was really going on such as the astronauts.

Tell me, do these men look like they just accomplished the greatest achievement of all mankind?

The moon landings were obviuously faked but you can never convince NPCs of this fact so dont bother.

You may not be able to convince the average person who has no understanding of the technical aspects of the missions; but, any engineer or expert in the field has to engage in severe dissonance to not admit to the severe inconsistencies with the Apollo program. Most will react with anger and rage; but, that's only a defense mechanism because they do not know how to accept the truth.

But you make a really good point. They could never get the necessary mass into space to even begin their moon mission.

Make sure you keep reiterating this fact about the rockets on this board. Ill probably forget this astute observation by tomorrow. My memory is terrible.

merlins are much MUCH weaker and the space shuttle main engines are designed for maximum efficency.
the F1 on the other hand was designend to give as much thrust as possible for about one minute or so. after that tehy were dumped into the ocean

Have there been any rocket engines designed since the 1960's with equal or greater thrust output as the F-1's?

Thanks, but you're wasting your knowledge on retards, bots and shills

ok earth is flat so what?

the russians did it i think
would have to look up the details
the problem is that the us didn't build a rocket the size of the saturn 5 for a long time and has since shifted in design for the new sls rocket.
instead of a three stage design they now opt for a sustainer design with two (or two and a half if you count the boosters) design which prioritises efficency over raw power.i think even spacexs raptor engines are weaker but tehy planned on using several of them since the start.
