    What does boiling hot water have to do with anything?

    Haven't you been paying attention?

    The moon in the daylight is one hot motherfucker! Hotter than boiling water and steam!

    So if a an has to survive it, those suits have to be able to protect from such temperatures, n'est ce pas?

    You must not know much about the moon sly. The north pole of the moon stays a constant moderate temp. Sunlight all the time. Not to hot, not to cold.

    Boy, we can tell which posters have never toured the NASA Space Center in Florida. The suits are water-cooled (heated).

    But, the suits themselves are one of the bigger marvels of space travel. They basically do it all: shield against ultraviolet radiation, micrometeroids and particle radiation.

    It's not like NASA just threw a jacket on these guys and sent them into space. They actually gave it some thought. :lol:

    Oh boy.. I don't know where to start. I'm really not trying to be condescending, but seriously consider taking some physics courses. I enjoyed it alot in my schooling.

    The reason it gets colder as you climb higher in elevation is the thinning atmosphere holds less heat. The radiant heat actually increases as you climb altitude, the reason why it is so easy to sunburn when skiing for example.

    If theres no atmosphere, then theres no valid comparison between boiling water and being on the moon. As far as your questions go the anser is no and no, the suit will likely not protect you from being boiled alive, or from being plunged into the antarctic. The rate of thermal loss to the atmosphere would be too great.

    I'm playing devil's advocate on this issue to be honest...because truthfully I'm agnostic about the entire Moon landing. But I want to challenge people to consider everythig and not just accept it blindly

    I don't think people do ...

    Also , I'm not saying you in particular but , it seems a certain type of people love to believe our government is not capable of certain things like that but they love to believe they are capable of doing such things when when describing certain types of conspiracy theories like secret aircraft that behave like alien flying saucers etc etc..

    IMO the two contradict each other ..

    Gentlemen, do you know why water near freezing temperature is so cold?
    It's because of radiation.

    Really ? So what if I had some near freezing water incased in a 100 ft thick lead box ?

    Well, it's simple. The radiation wouldn't be able to get through the lead, and the water would become hotter and hotter, until it eventually reached the boiling point and evaporated.
    Don't believe me? Try this experiment:
    Get a lead container, pour some cold water in it, and close the container. Now radiation can't get to the water, and water will become hotter and hotter, until it eventually starts to boil.
    That's how I make my tea every morning. Pour some cold water in a lead container and wait until it starts to boil.

    Are there any laws requiring horses to graduate from junior-high school with at least rudimentary knowledge of physics?

    :clap: I understand and apreeciate your honesty Sly.
    The "Sea Of Tranquility" where we landed is in the northern himisphere on the moon. It is a moderate temp all the time. Check out space.com and you could learn alot about it if you are interested.
    but once again, thanks for being honest. Its hard to find here sometimes.

    I highly doubt any of us took many physic classes above high school level, and even if you did ( I did some btw ), it won't help you at all in confirming or infirming moon landing, unless, maybe, you did your whole degree in it. Plus, Moon does have some kind of atmosphere

    Confirming or infirming? :eek:

    There must a word in French that is similar, but we don't use infirm except to say sick or ailing. You wanted to say disprove, I think.

    Infirm = to invalidate.

    You used it correctly.
