![]() It boils down to this: the public apparently don't care as much about space any more. He talks up all NASA's previous achievements as real and explains that he's doing what he's doing for the good of the space programme, but he doesn't have a choice. They're flown in secret to a secret location where they have a secret meeting with Dr James Kelloway, the man in charge, who they know well and trust. The astronauts get onto the rocket for real with every expectation that they're going to Mars, but they don't stay there long, being pulled off the rocket during the countdown to launch during some apparent emergency. The ground control crews are monitoring the real rocket and don't know anything is amiss. It was developed for real, it was built for real and it launches for real. Capricorn One is a manned mission to Mars that was always intended to be real. The Russians had killed off Yuri Gagarin, after all. So when Peter Hyams made Capricorn One, it wasn't awesomely far fetched, at least to the conspiracy theory nuts in their tin foil hats. ![]() ![]() The plans are mostly gone and much of the equipment too, so we can't even reverse engineer what we have. Realistically to do the same thing again, we'd have to start from scratch and reinvent what they invented. One key fact that must drive people like Buzz Aldrin nuts is that while he and his cohorts achieved amazing feats in 1969 with 1969 technology, we can't replicate what they did today. This month we're celebrating the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11's trip to the moon and while all the conspiracy theorists rise back to the surface to protest the anniversary, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is snapping new photos of all the landing sites and Google have put online a lunar version of the Google Earth app. Here's a complete genius bit of TV: TCM choose to broadcast Capricorn One, the most famous movie about a fake NASA mission, bring on Buzz Aldrin to introduce it and to do it right now in July 2009. You may not know it, but this makes you a Spinozist, in the sense that you believe contingency (some things just happen) is an illusion and the real is always what's predetermined.Stars: Elliott Gould, James Brolin, Brenda Vaccaro, Sam Waterston, O J Simpson and Hal Holbrook But if you are convinced that these external personal and social factors mean nothing to the formation of an individual, then you believe that once an O.J., always an O.J. The personal and social experiential factors of the late-1990s were not there for the O.J. A person is a point in time and space and all of the factors that connect this his/her in a space and a time. But these changing circumstances also change the individual. Each individual is responding to environments that are constantly changing. The flaw in our common thinking is to imagine that the individual is not composed of individuals. and say the same as you: This bastard deserves to be in prison for life for those Brentwood murders. Indeed, it's possible that the Capricorn One O.J. Simpson of Capricorn One were mostly not the same as those that gathered in the mug shot taken on June 17, 1994. To begin with, the atoms gathered into the O.J. What he had done at that point made him another man in many ways. was not accused of committing a double murder. When the excellent Capricorn One was shot, O.J.
