No. NASA is directed by the US Department of Defense, and uses national security to classify its information.

From the National Aeronautics and Space Act:

Sec. 20102. (b) Aeronautical and Space Activities for Welfare and Security of United States.-Congress declares that the general welfare and security of the United States require that adequate provision be made for aeronautical and space activities. Congress further declares that such activities shall be the responsibility of, and shall be directed by, a civilian agency exercising control over aeronautical and space activities sponsored by the United States, except that activities peculiar to or primarily associated with the development of weapons systems, military operations, or the defense of the United States (including the research and development necessary to make effective provision for the defense of the United States) shall be the responsibility of, and shall be directed by, the Department of Defense; and that determination as to which agency has responsibility for and direction of any such activity shall be made by the President.

With the 'national security' defense, the command structure of NASA goes through the DoD and the President. We've all seen 'national security' used whenever convenient, and we're all aware the President is a figurehead of the deep state. Meanwhile, the United States has been in a "National Emergency" since they wrote a law defining it.

There is definitely a degree of cognitive dissonance in those who criticize and don't trust the military industrial complex but then blindly accept all that NASA says and does.

why indeed..

Gutless shills that can't be bothered thinking on their feet.

i don't trust them a bit. makes me wonder what this gravity waves announcement is all about

clearly it's pr - but for what purpose? maybe just a maintenance thing, to assure the people that Science! is on the case?

Flat Earth shit is blowing up and once you look at it and realize the theoretical nature of gravity, its pretty insane.

Before I get downvotes this has nothing to do with flat Earth, but no object on Earth can have enough mass to attract another (even though x and y axis force s are totally independent), gravity doesn't pull the inner planets into the sun, or the moon towards the Earth, etc.

the idea is that 'gravity' is really just an electromagnetic attraction, right? i like it, but i'm still wrapping my head around it.

if that's the case, though, i don't understand why 'mass' isn't attracted in a polar manner. shouldn't the earth attract one pole and repel the other?

but yeah i completely agree that flat earth is being used to cover for something real about the earth. i think the earth's poles each have an oasis of green life, due to the electromagnetic nature of earth. and that implies the /r/holofractal theory is right, which implies we can just snatch energy out of the aether, tesla-style

the idea is that 'gravity' is really just an electromagnetic attraction, right?

The equations taught in an introductory physics sequence for the gravitational and electromagnetic forces take a similar form (kqq/r² vs. Gmm/r^2), but gravity is not reducible to electromagnetism.

I don't trust anything that is operated out of Langley. However, the National Association of Space Animation must be applauded for its improvement to the evolution of photoshop from Langley to every computer in domestic use. You know necessity is the mother of all innovation.

No. Not even a little bit. They are an arm of the military, which means anything that's attached to their actions has the strong probability of propaganda.

Fuck nasa!

The letter criticizes the Goddard Institute For Space Studies especially, where director Jim Hansen and climatologist Gavin Schmidt have been outspoken advocates for action.http://www.livescience.com/27117-nasa-climate-scientist-arrest.html Hansen has been arrested twice for civil disobedience. If a scientist is willing to break the law to make a point, I feel that any adjustments they made to the temperature record become highly suspect.

op you might enjoy this documentary. it's not just nasa - it's all of human history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxwUn3VuOZE

Not as much as I used to. Their marketing (propaganda) has become rather overt, and I'm skeptical of any organization that vies for support through inorganic means. Meaning, those organizations that live or die should be dictated by popular favor, rather than manipulation.

I feel like all of those huge monitors and system displays used for "launches" are more likely used for media control and information wars...

As an astronomy nerd, yeah I trust the scientific data NASA has presented to the public. However, you are right. Their higher channels are through the DoD and the executive office. I believe there are A LOT of things nasa has discovered/invented that has not been shown to us. With the defense budget as big as it is, and much moolah disappearing into thin air, I'm willing to bet the MIC is developing weapons optimized for outer space and militarized spacefaring vehicles. It goes against an international treaty, but if you can put the cork on the bottle and lockdown LEO, you win the planet.

The stuff that is made public are vanity projects and actual important scientific discoveries for the sake of science. But who knows, just a gut feeling.

edit: grammar

I watched a youtube video recently comparing the logos of various international space administrations and they all display a chevron, in one form or another. Pure coincidence I am sure.

Link me dog... Also what is a chevron..?

The Red V

I trust them in their actual area of study. Everywhere else they’re puppets of the liars.

This will probably get me scolded, but yes, yes I do. I trust NASA.

I think they are holding back hoards of information and photographs.

Like what?

Well, I'm no NASA insider so I have no idea. But if you research a little you will find that they have multiple communication channels between Houston and the astronauts. Anytime something odd comes up, it instantly switches to a secure (non-public) channel. That alone proves they are hiding something.

Same thing goes with the video feeds. There are countless recorded video feeds that will play for hours and then once something anomalous happens, the feed is interrupted. Additionally, the ISS moves at 17,000 miles per hour , 5 miles per second. It hauls ass. Yet we are to believe they all these anomalies floating in space near the ISS also just happen to be moving at the exact same speed and in the same direction? If they are all just ice crystals, then why does NASA tend to cut the feed?

There are many examples of published photographs by NASA that have clearly been manipulated/edited with no explanation. Either intentional blurring or backgrounds being blacked out for some reason or another.

There are anomalous objects that have been photographed from satellites that nobody will talk about. For instance the structure on Phobos that was mentioned here by Buzz Aldrin on C-Span.

Anytime something odd comes up, it instantly switches to a secure (non-public) channel. That alone proves they are hiding something.

I don't broadcast my entire life to the world, does that prove I'm hiding something? Nasa runs a strict PR program and when odd things come up, it's best to not broadcast your internal communications to avoid being picked apart by armchair astronauts.

Are you saying its Aliens? Because I want you to think about how much more advanced an alien race would have to be to make it to earth. If aliens didn't want us to see them, we wouldn't see them. If they did want us to see them, NASA couldn't stop it.

The best you have is a blurry picture of a rock on Phobos and an astronaut trying to spark interest in space exploration to get more funding.

I would bet you are hiding something. We all are.

Like what the poles actually looks like. Check google maps if you don't believe me. Nothing to see there but dem photoshop brushes yo.

The North and South pole are no mystery.

You mean like this

or this

I assume you subscribe to the hollow earth idea?

Keep in mind that NASA isn't the only one with satillites. In order to supress information like that, they would need cooperation from literally every agency that has satillite capability. News channels, weather stations, radio comm companies.... do you really think that all these entities would willing and/or able to keep a secret like that?

What about all the explorers who physically go to the poles? Does NASA keep a sentry up there to confiscate cameras and intimate the people into not talking?

Poor wittle military industrial complex I hope I didn't hurt its feewings!

All of the appollo tapes were "lost". Yes, all of them.

I trust NASA scientists

The entire purpose of NASA is to provide cover for the real space program of the NWO.

Yeah, I do. India's space program exists, what about them? It's only because it's part of the U.S government that you don't trust it? So Iran and Indonesia's space programs are trustable? Why would any of them lie? Or, why would only NASA lie? And if they lied or fabricated, Russia or China would certainly call them out.

That's so many people to keep quiet, so many secrets that would easily come out. Also NASA doesn't get shit for funding, compared to healthcare, military, infrastructure, etc. so it's really not extracting copious amounts of money. Well, WHY would NASA be lying? Like what recently is suspicious? The comet? Pluto? They have no reason to lie, and why would they need to? The technology isn't all that complicated (yes it is, but mostly it's just math and money). I haven't seen the bubbles, but I'll take a look at it sometime and decide for myself.

Okay fine, lets say my argument is incorrect and everything is perfectly compartmentalized. I'll take a different direction. What have they been faking? What's the purpose? What do they gain? Money can't be it, there isn't that much money comparatively. Why would all of the space agencies of the world be in concert in deceiving everyone? It just doesn't make sense. There's so much for humans to gain from outer space, and exploring it. Also, I think your example is good, but it's on such a small scale. And how did they get caught? I'm genuinely curious.

EDIT: I looked at the video. Mildly strange, but is it not possible for water to have come from the craft itself? Or a piece of debris is what it looked like to me. Does look weird though.

I'm sure there's multiple photos of earth? Why does it matter if there's multiple pictures reconstructed into one to make it look really nice? Isn't the marble one proof enough? And of course NASA is part of the military, for development and whatnot.

I guess we can agree to disagree here.

You're sure there are multiple photos of Earth? There aren't. Can you link me to 4 or 5 different, real photos? They admit the blue marble on iphones is fake BTW.

I think it's because real pictures seldom turn out good, composites would always guarantee a great shot. But yes they definitely should show real pictures, even if they look shit. And take pictures of outer space, or things like the moon and mars? With the former, I'm pretty sure they have to do a very long exposure shot to pick up planets that far away. And maybe the camera is fixed in one place? I'm sure you know more about cameras than I do so I may have no idea what I'm talking about.

The photos of that comet or whatever that they intercepted is real. So is the picture of Pluto, isn't it? There's definitely real ones out there. But there definitely should be more, undoctored photos.

I think the logical reason would maybe to keep people interested? If they see a picture of an object and it's really drab and not impressive, they might scoff and be like "that's not as cool as I thought it would be" or whatever. Not a very strong theory on my end but that's all I've got right now. That's a pretty good comparison, I would like to see a #nofilter picture of earth and Mars and all that jazz. Just to see it naturally!

Neil is an asshole, too much ego. I do think flat earth is hilariously stupid, but sure he should (I'm assuming he doesn't I haven't watched the video yet) debunk each of the points in turn.

And I think having a camera always pointed at earth is important for weather data, cloud patterns, volcanic ash clouds, all sorts of stuff. And the fascination in our planet of course, maybe even ego a bit haha. I think that they're launching (or maybe have already launched?) a big telescope soon, that will be able to see farther and more stuff than the good old Hubble scope.
