Yep, and all those "alleged" landing sites were at least a third of the way in from any edge of the moons face. Thus an Actornaut would have needed to tilt back looking straight up at the Earth i.e. "always directly over head!" So, laying flat out on their backs might have been believable if it weren't for the bulk of the ridiculous stage costumes.
😅Please show sts 75 Tether incident. I love how they tey to explain it away on Live television🎉. Years Later came the infamous WILL SMITH DESERT SCENE. THEY TOOK THE DESIGN FROM STS 75 AND INSERTED IT IN THE FIRST INSTALLMENT OF THE 'INDEPENDENCE DAY' MOVIES. IM A 1070's baby..so im appreciating the fond memories of nasa. As a Big Boy now and a United States Marine. Many of us in the Military and Intelligence Communities know nasa was literally collusion and has always been a cover for a more covert antigravitic space armada
@PINKBOY1006 must of been the same type of speck of dirt hanging out behind this back hoe on rail road alaska that spins. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w2qUzABdWeE.htmlfeature=shared
I'm generally pro-metric, but temperature is the one exception in my book. Firstly, the main draw of the metric system - mathematical convenience in conversion - does not apply since there is no need to convert degrees into any other format. Secondly, there's way too much variation within degrees. Fahrenheit is much more precise. i.e. 71 and 72 degrees F are clearly distinguishable to me, yet both round 22 degrees C. Ditto for 48 and 49 degrees F, both of which round to 9 degrees C. Yes I'm aware decimals can solve this, but most weather reports and apps round to the nearest degree, as do most people in colloquial conversations. Celsius proponents always bring up the heating and cooling points of water as if it was some huge gotcha, but that makes about as much sense as saying the metric system is bad for length because a meter is nowhere near the length of an average human foot. There's no inherent importance of water in terms of understanding temperature. Again, I do think the other metric measurements are superior to their non-metric counterparts, however.
I can never remember the metric system and it's weird ways. 32 degrees Fahrenheit will always mean freezing to me. Metric temperatures make no sense to me. Celsius will always be Centigrade to me, too.
It is from the 60s. Satellites were in space by then. The interconnected showcase was just a demonstration of how they thought it would turn out. It is simply a coincidence that the outcome they predicted came true
this holds up pretty well, it describs the foundations of computation really well. EDIT: I see you say its a portion of a more complete cartoon, any chance you will upload the rest?
I wish I could, but this is all there was of the animation on that laserdisc. They were using it as filler in a few places so i cut it out on its own to upload since its rather good on its own. But unfortunately they make no reference to animation as it was a one off 3M pressing and it has nothing written on the jacket, so its not going to be easy to find without someone knowing what it is. I’ll be uploading the whole laserdisc this weekend with a few other discs I’ve been archiving.
Everybody knows that 100 degrees is very hot and 0 degrees is very cold. That would be on a Farenheit thermometer but would it be on a Celcius one? 100 degrees Farenheit would be in the upper 30's Celcius about the same temperature that girl was taking a bathing in that lake.
I was surprised to see the Xerox logo in the beginning of this film. Apparently, they must have been a distributor of animated educational films. The "Exploring Mathematics" series, as well as the "Curiosity Shop" animated adaptations of comic strip characters, had this opening logo, too.
I never had the good fortune to hear this on The Dr. Demento Show on KMET (Los Angeles), but I did have the good fortune to hear it played from a Dr. Demento album circa 1982-3. I cried a little laughing at it again after all these years. 🤣
