Practice 30 moon landings with a simulator.
Change the gravity setting and successfully do it on the 31st try.
When Neil Armstrong did it, the final approach and landing were done "by the seat of your pants" --- there was no computer used. The de-orbit burn did use a primitive computer. The final approach and landing did not use a computer.
The craft was not flying (no air), it was translating.
There was no aerodynamic stability. - The was no aerodynamics.
When you successfully do it, post a screenshot. :)
I am still on the fence.
I have factored out things to make the landing possible
I have factored out things to make the hoax possible
It still comes down to the skill required to make the final approach and landing possible with what NASA had at the time.
Here's the rub --- It would be easy to simulate. The (easy version) simulators I have tried are next to impossible. I am a pilot. I have test flown experimental (never been built before) home-brew aircraft. I have landed some with control reversal. I consider myself an amateur test pilot.
...but fuck -- the lunar seat-of-your-pants landing is hard for me to believe.
So --- I present the Neil Armstrong lunar lander challenge --- still no takers
Well, The only thing that could put me on the fence, would be to suggest that the magnetic field was so strong back then, that it repelled all concerning radiation and the boys were able to fly there with safety. I figure this is extremely unlikely.
When it comes to wanting to compare apples to oranges, I find this hard to do.
I am a driver, anything I have ever piloted and had control of, I become part of. So I understand the ability to manipulate a machine using your own senses.
But, I am not sure I could pull this off in space with this craft on the first sojourn. Technically maybe all his 0 gravity flight training helped. I have only done that in video games.
For the expedition to complete flawlessly 6 times in 3 years, I find it amazing, unbelievably amazing.
Neil Armstrong did not have modern day video games
No but millions of dollars in other gear much of it actual physical simulations
...and NASA wanted to shut down the LLRV/LLTV program....
WHY would NASA want to do that?
That just didn't make any sense if you were going to do a man guided moon landing.
The ones he crashed? --- using the same gravity he practiced with?
