Keep going please
Great thread mates

that's not very high up, kinda odd. what's going on here?
>>2570608
That's the upper stage of the Saturn IB rocket after delivering Apollo 7 to low Earth orbit (in this case 227 km by 301 km).

This gets my vote as the best image from America's space program.
>>2570373
Do people ACTUALLY believe that men traveled 300,000km through a vacuum and landed on the moon in THAT THING? Don't make me laugh. It looks like a hilarious 60s sci-fi prop at best.
Seriously stare at that photo for a few minutes and think about what is claimed. Just look at it.
>>2570779
Because there's an internal structure (the pressurized crew compartment) and all the external fittings are simply covered in a thin, non-load bearing layer. It's okay if you have no knowledge of structural engineering, but don't try to use that ignorance as "evidence" for anything.

See here, for example:

That's all for now
Thank you for these. I remember much of the Apollo program from when I was a child and the images are great.
>>2571268
I'm so jealous. I can't imagine what it must have been like to grow up during the space race.
>>2571292
Duck and cover!
>>2571037
You're absolutely crazy, my friend. I actually do have pretty good engineering knowledge, and probably a lot more experience than you. If you think that piece of shit prop took anyone anywhere near space you are crazy.
>>2571399
> I actually do have pretty good engineering knowledge, and probably a lot more experience than you.
See, you say that, but then you make bullshit statements like "it looks like a movie prop so it must be fake," pretty clearly demonstrating that you don't know jack shit about this. I'd encourage you to read the other material I linked, you just might learn something.
I just want to save this entire thread

Glad you liked it. How about a torrent of my spaceflight folder?
>>2571463
Yes please, I've never seen a collection this good.
This thread needs to be archived
>>2571472
Torrent is up!

Fantastic thread! Thanks OP
I don't suppose anyone can start a hi-rez thread of Soviet era spacecraft, can they?
>>2568492
love this one, thanks anon
Outstanding dump itt.
Wish there were more like this on /hr/.

Thanks to the posters of this thread!
What an amazing time it must have been to live in the 60s-80s in the usa, makes a man dream.
