You believed a lie. There is no way in 60 years we don't know how to create a better rocket attached to a plane. We have the tech to circle the globe in 2 hrs (10x faster than back then) yet mysteriously can't even fly a manned craft beyond earths upper orbit? Lies.

The problem is we can't go past the van allen belt, and never could. Nor could we likely communicate that far. Yet of course we managed to transmit in real time from the moon 200k miles away in 1960s yet I can't even get 1 bar in my house to a tower 3 miles away in 2016. B u l l s h i t.

Bdastomper and big J (2 moon men believers) just got dunked on so hard I heard the glass breaking from my cell phone and had to take it out of my pocket and see what happened.

I imagine you are following news on Orion,which hasn't launched yet. Hopefully, these issues of the Allen Belts will come to pass.

Either way:

Apollo was designed to pass through those belts, and had no problem with them, as James Van Allen stated at the time of Apollo. The Command Module was well shielded. It had to be to survive a punishing re-entry. Any new design has to keep the many factors he mentioned in mind. Orion may LOOK like Apollo, but there are important differences. More sophisticated electronics for one thing. In many ways, electronics are more sensitive to radiation than human beings are. Apollo was navigated primarily from the ground. At that time, computers were not yet miniaturized to have the primary navigation on board. They did have a primitive backup system in case communications were lost for a significant period of time.

I'm in my phone but I'd say you approach this with a bias. Didn't you have a security clearance at a contractor plant?? You're inherently bias as a pseudo G-man I think.

Personally, I think the Dragon is much neater ship ,but I can see why Orion is appealing. One of the big reasons is price tag.

It's crazy thinking the astronauts that will embark on mars are about my daughters age now.

Spoiler: astronauts will never go to mars or anywhere else beyond earths orbit.

The dunks per second in this thread were too real. my radio edit Flair went in on these moon men martians.

It'll definitely happen in the next 30 - 40 years bro. Space X is going all the way.
