They made it appear to be rippled because they like the look of the flag that way... It resembled the way you would see the flag on earth.
There are 'movies' where it is moving I believe, with no astronaut presence in its immediate vicinity.
Um it does disagree with my statement either? I just said that Van allen said the astronauts would have no trouble.
It doesnt direclt disagree, but it is interesting how your excuse doesnt match that of a NASA source because they didnt mention such irrefutable evidence. BTW, I have been to that site, and like I said previously, their are alot of convenient excuses in their.
So you disagree with their description of the moons environment?
No, but that site tries to say that minimal dust was disaplced by the LM because of the moons atmosphere.... and thats why that foot print could still be made so well
Heres alittle snipper of a large artilcle which is quite interesting.
Radiation
Around our planet are huge radiation bands, it is up for debate how thick they are, but estimations show that the Apollo astronauts would spend approximately four hours in the radiation. This is possibly the strongest proof we have against the moon landings ever taking place. There are two natural bands of radiation called the Van Allen belt, the first being just under 300 miles from Earth. No other space projects have ever gone into these deadly areas apart from the Apollo missions. In 1962, the US government implemented Operation Starfish Prime, they tried to use a megaton nuclear bomb to blast a hole in the radiation, in their infinite wisdom they made the radiation worse, by 2002 this third band will still have 25 times the amount of radiation than the natural bands.
There is no way for astronauts to get through this radiation without having at least: hair loss, severe sickness, vomiting and diarrhoea, impaired vision, and death within a two month period, however no Apollo astronauts ever suffered illness from travelling through the radiation.
Sunspot activity follows an 11 year cycle, every 11 years there is a the greatest amount of radiation, one of these peaks was between 1969 and 1970, there is no way men stood that radiation and made it to the moon. Between the Apollo 16 and 17 mission, one of the worst solar flares on record occurred, this would have given enough radiation to instantly kill and astronaut, however the astronauts were fine, they were safely away in AREA51.
There are also numerous eg's of pictures taken where the rocks etc are in the exact same arrangement... yet NASA claims they are different locations!
