OK, I guess a 40-year anniversary of Apollo 11 landing on the moon requires a posting. But lets face it, there’s not much I can say that’ll be new or terribly interesting here. So I’ll just post these videos:

Bart Sibrel (an “Apollo was a hoax” whackjob) gets smacked down by Buzz Aldrin

Ed Mitchell kicks Bart Sibrels ass

Neil Armstrong is far more respectful to Sibrel than he deserved.

  1. Yea, Neil is the quintessential even to wack jobs. Buzz? Not so much!

  2. Damn, typing to fast. Neil is the quintessential gentleman.

  3. can some one put Bart Sibrel
    gagged and tied on next Roket to moon ?
    Please !

  4. We could send him some of the pics the LRO has taken of the Apollo sites, except he’d probably just accuse NASA of faking those too.

  5. My only beef with Buzz is that he seems to have sold out to the EELV crowd what with the current Pop Mech article (Forensics myths cover)
    He supported Hu Davis’ Aquila concept (Direct, Magnum type Sub Ares V HLLV) that was to use his star booster fly-back.

    Scuttlebutt has it that Branson turned him down cold while giving ear to Rutan.

    Frankly, I thought it would have been smarter for Branson to have purchased that second unbuilt AN-225 (that was recently purchased IIRC) so he could have had a “VIRGIN Cargo and Space” line. That way, the first ‘stage’ could be supported by non-space markets even if the sub-orbital flight market fell out.
