In today’s Lightning Round video, we’re going to look at why we’ve been having so much trouble landing on the moon, as well as talk about some of the big successes. Also, I talk about the space event I’d like to see happen in my lifetime, whether I’d ever hire a successor, and some philosophizing about reality. Enjoy!

8:03 ummm, didn’t the mars rover find that rock which had highly probable evidence of bacterial activity in the past?

One big difference in the Apollo era was that most of the missions were crewed, and human pilots are better at problem solving than machines. Plus the manned missions also could absolutely not afford to mess up: if a robotic probe crashes it's an expensive mistake, but if you don't return a crew alive youve you've got a much bigger problem on your hands.

I know you will disagree with me, but we didn’t go to the moon. Get real. I always wondered prior to your podcast how on earth the landers with those spindly legs landed successfully every single time on the moon. And then went up in the air circled the moon and attached to the main capsule, not possible, too complicated. And if it had happened, we would definitely have had fatalities but every single mission was a success strange.

Why these satellites orbiting the moon are not capable to make pictures of the Appolo landing sites, to show the world these are real ???

If it tipped over, technically it is "not" a successful landing.

The eclipse was amazing & it would be great to see another but Bettlejuice blowing up would be great. Of course it may have already blown. I’ve seen enough evil alien movies to just forget about meeting them.

The real reason we’re having trouble: Space Yahtzees! They escaped to the moon after WW2 and setup a secret moonbase mining Helium 3. They’ll shoot down most probes that get sent up there.
(There is a movie about this called Iron Sky.)

Unbiased news is no longer a thing, if it ever truly was. The older I get, the more I learn, the more I realize that the "good ol' days" of honest journalism were likely just as slanted as what we see today – we just didn't realize that.
As for the "successor" question or rebranding – I would suggest NOT doing that. After seeing what happened to TKOR… and Because Science… yeah don't do it.

Just a note on acronyms. I work for a big laboratory. The absolute passion scientists have for figuring out good catchy acronyms for their projects is unreal. 😂

If you want to experience what a hallucination is like in waking normal reality just look at "Moire" pattern… Your brain and eyes will naturally see patterns which are identical to the same process psychedelics have when you look at things your brain would normally be able to make sense out of and identify immediately.
