1. expensive just to send a cam up there and deploy.

2. Boring. What's to watch? The local wildlife?

3. Crazies would think it's a webcam in a movie studio here on earth.

Re: Why are there no live video cameras on the moon?
The NASA shills always throw down this obvious line of BS when confronted with the facts.

FACT:

Man never returned to set foot on the moon in over 40 years, so man never went and stepped out on the moon.

SHILL retort:

They ran out a money, so, how could they.

Facts:

Listen up shills, they had 40 years to save up and perfect technology to do it again. They never did and never will cause they never went there.

Course, they did leave a live video camera there that panned up to video live feed of the capsule leaving the moon.

You could ask, why is that camera not used to look around and point up at earth.

Ok shills, have at it.

Re: Why are there no live video cameras on the moon?
The moon rover(moon car) does have a camera on it. And it did capture and return video from the surface of the moon. It took video of the lunar lander launching back into space from the moon's surface. Why isn't this still on? It comes down to power, and the tech at the time. However, I do agree that in this day and age. We could send an unmanned robot, fitted with HD cameras to film and send back video. But is there really a reason to expel this much man power and money? I would say NO.

Re: Why are there no live video cameras on the moon?
1. At the time of the Apollo flights (assuming you are not
one of the DOLTS who think they were faked), we did not have
the technology.

2. We have dozens of satellites in orbit around the Earth,
some with extra ordinary imaging capabilities.

3. Since we have not been back to the Moon for some time, the
only way to get one there would have been to send an unmanned
system. This is expensive, particularly when idiot whiners
feel the money would be better spent on more hand outs to the
Free Shit Army.

4. George Soros and the Reptilian Overlords decided it was
best to keep the Greys in a private habitat on the far side
until such time as the Rothschild banking family felt their
time was at hand.

If they had a live video camera there, with web page access to the video, I think you'd be surprised at how many views it would receive daily (a lot!). I know I would check it out often.

I am just guessing here but it may have to do with maintaing the myth that Americans went to the moon.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63517867


Me too. I'd probably check it daily and I'm sure many would devote terabytes of video to compare. If you're gonna have one why not four pointing in different directions?

Question: Whatever happened to that super high tech Chinese Moon rover mission? Or was that BS?

The terrorists attacks which will be launched in the United States will be blamed upon middle eastern religious fanatics, Christian fundamentalists, white supremacists, Patriots, or Militias. A more immediate result of these operations will be the increased use of military forces, weaponry, and equipment such as tanks and armored personnel carriers in civilian law enforcement, the suspension or elimination of Habeas Corpus, the elimination of jury trials, the attempted disarming of the American People, and the institution of martial law with show-trials conducted by a tribunal of judges. - William Cooper 1997 (RIP)

Nasa 2014 budget : +/- 17 billion $

(17,000 x 1million$)

Yeah, they are just scraping by, no cams for you!
 Quoting: WeAreSlaves


They don't get handed a chunk of money and get to do anything they want. They apply for a budget with every bit of money specified to a particular purpose or program. That is then chopped by Congress so they get less than they asked for but it STILL is specified for specific programs.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 47938245


Agreed, i have seen the budget details and conditions.

However, we're not talking about a big undertaking relative to the total budget and the benefits would be numerous, surely more so than some of their current projects IMO.


Edit
2015 :
Lunar Quest Program budget : 0.00$
Mars Exploration : 279,000,000$

[link to www.nasa.gov]
 Quoting: WeAreSlaves

So petition Congress for it then. NASA doesn't have much say.

It HAS looked at the Moon. But its resolution at that distance is about 200 feet per pixel. Hubble's real strength is in focusing on one area for a long time gathering a lot of light for extremely dim objects.

 Quoting: Tesla1980


You'd need a set of fairly sizable communications dishes on Earth to receive the signal. Even at the distance of the Moon you'd have signal degradation and with the low power camera and transmitter that people propose you'd need a bigger dish receiving back here on Earth. Then you'd need at least a few because Earth rotates and each dish could only see the Moon for a part of each day. So you'd need funding for these dishes to be built and manned.

 Quoting: Astral Goat


And the large radio antenna necessary to receive the signal as well. Those are being used for other purposes now.

as opposed to the 2.8 billion the gov just spent on a couple of blimps...

A live feed of the earth from the moon would provide unheard amount of data and visually stunning pictures as the earth spins below.

not to mention the amazing view of a lunar eclipse which causes a red moon.

to see the earth's atmosphere red ring from the moon during a lunar eclipse would unimaginable.

but we all know the reason...


NASA is a IV Drip for the human sheep.

it full fills the role of slowly dripping technology "advances" to the people. This allows us to feel like we are progressing and that we are moving forward as a human race.

It is a propaganda technology release program.

its fucking aliens man.
