The day American Democracy was murdered, in 1963.
I didn't want to give it away so I was deliberately vague in my description, other than the date.
St. Phatty knew.......

Delta between US an Canada 11/22 vice 22/11. FWIW, I got busted 22 Nov 1974.
I was 11 years old that day. I thought about it a lot yesterday.
I was in the school principal’s office to get a spanking, 2nd grade. Kennedy had just been shot and the dude was too shook-up to spank me. Phew!

"Final Judgment"
the single best history book I've ever read.
It covers American history of the 20th Century.
Also if you want to understand American History, do 4 site-searches of the NASA website. You will learn more in 5 minutes than any other thing you could do. Very time-efficient history study.

The moon has almost no atmosphere to get in the way of photos. Why on earth would you expect to see stars in moon landing photos when the view is completely unobstructed in any way?
camera settings and focus distance mostly. the moon was what they were taking pictures of, and astronauts in white suits, which necessitate fast exposure times. have you tried taking pictures of the stars from earth during the day? yeah, i know "atmosphere"...sunlight, more accurately. it is always the same side of the moon that faces earth. if they set up cameras focused on the stars while on the moon, with longer exposures, they could probably get some really nice shots.

Maybe LBJ didn't want to broadcast American Astronauts die-ing on the surface of the moon from Radiation Poisoning.
The radiation levels on the Moon are comparable to standing next to a large nuclear reactor.
The technique for making water on the moon is that Protons (Hydrogen Nuclei) are harvested from the solar winds.
To get oxygen, sulfates etc. (compounds with Oxygen) are heated, along with the hydrogen nuclei - and maybe a few electrons. Then add a spark maybe once a second.
Of course, the radiation coming from the sun does not just contain Protons. It is very full-spectrum radiation.
People who think the moon landing is real, should wear an astronaut suit and stand next to an un-shielded nuclear reactor for the time duration of the average moon walk.
JFK was the topic.

yup. Phatty out in front by 5 lengths coming around the last turn, heading for home...
Just realized yesterday the Republicans killed Kennedy. Not the Secret Service. Not Cuba.
NOT the CIA? what convinced you?
Never considered the Republican party...didn't think they were capable but looking back now...
