did you know the real NASA lander Morpheus exploded today ,fake one lands safely on moon and mars?

DC-X was a prototype Single State to Orbit vehicle that achieved rocket powered takeoff and rocket powered landing almost 20 years ago. Since this program was not classified, plenty of film footage of the test flights exist. I'll leave the searching for them to you.

Curiosity landed on Mars in the wee hours of the morning on Monday, August 5. Morpheus, which has no connection with the Mars Program, whatsoever, suffered the mishap on Thursday, August 9, four days after Curiosity landed.

You are committing a classic act of intellectual dishonesty by connecting two events that have absolutely nothing to do with each other and claiming that if one resulted in failure, then the other is a failure also.

Like this? Also, Morpheus wasn't the lander carrying Curiosity.

Besides, a successful test in terrestrial gravity would require way more fuel than is needed for lunar or Martian gravity, so the engineering value of such a test is little enough that doing a dry run is more trouble than its worth.

And no, my logic is not flawed. Everything that can be successfully tested in terrestrial gravity, like the sensors and electronics, will be. The thrusters and other motive elements will be tested while secured to a scaffold, in order to assure engine output matches the desired parameters, but releasing a functioning lunar lander into terrestrial gravity would see it smack directly into the ground -- precisely as expected, when it's designed to land in a sixth of the gravity.

Francine, your totally ignorant mindless NASA bashing is really getting tedious. You need to learn a little bit about the space program, rather than just regurgitating the crap you find on conspiracy wacko websites. Full documentation of all the major missions is available from the NASA and JPL sites. You should follow another good rule, not original with me: Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Morpheus was not "the real NASA lander"; it was *a* real NASA lander, one among many.

No fake landers have been sent to the Moon or Mars; it would be extremely uneconomical (as well as pointless) to do so.

Look here: http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/videogallery/index.... for videos related to Curiosity's descent onto Mars.

The experimental vehicle Morpheus exploded. You are correct.

Nothing landed on the Moon recently. No idea what you're talking about there.

The Curiosity rover landed on Mars recently. It is not a fake. Consider yourself informed of your error.

I'm half asleep, and I found sense in the article you posted. Project Morpheus was doing a test, not a landing; it failed its own test. Curiosity, the Mars Rover, landed successfully a while ago. I saw it shown on the Weather Channel.

though i won't argue about moon landing but this failed project as NASA say was the first attempt where NASA did it in other private farm .so that is why its not something which NASA was working for long time with their own engineers .As ex NASA director say that its sad how privatization will result in poor quality product which take only few year to make product but quality is not ensured .I think all these space station ,satellite ,even Indian have moon orbiter .So you can guess your 60 year old conspiracy theory won't work this time

Yet another denier makes a fool of themselves! Rants like this say far more about the poster than the subject they are trying to denigrate!

no one is buying your trash.

No I did not know that.
