Why didn't cosmic radiation from the stars and UV radiation kill the crew of Apollo and friends half a century ago?

They called Nixon from the moon... On a landline.

No, Nixon called them, from a landline that went to NASA that then was connected to their radio communicator to the Apollo lander.

I mean, I'm sure that NASA probably did something more sophisticated, but they could have just had some junior scientist hold the telephone receiver up to the radio link between Houston and the Apollo lander. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to think of that.

That's bad comedy.

The entire charade was a hoax.

LOL. Moon landing denialists are the perfect example of the Dunning-Kruger Effect. Too bloody dumb to realise how bloody dumb they are.

Imagine being so fucked in the head you would have to be to think that, at the height of the Cold War, America's arch-rivals in the USSR would go along with the hoax to enhance America's reputation as winner of the space race. That's almost as dumb as libtards who can't tell the difference between men and women and think that the Jan 6 riots was an insurrection.

I suppose now you're going to say that the Soviet Union never existed and the entire Cold War was a hoax too?

Is this the best you can come up with?

You happen to be...
