If you watch film of Neil Armstrong setting his canteen down, you can see Tang dribbling from the loose cap that he forgot to tighten down, yet if they were actually on the Moon, there is no gravity to make it dribble.

"yet if they were actually on the Moon, there is no gravity to make it dribble."

ahhh OK...

If there is no gravity on the moon then how does moon dust stay on the surface of the moon?

Umm...the Moon has gravity. It’s approximately 1/6 the strength of the Earth’s due to its much smaller mass.

LOL!

A canteen of Tang on the moon! No gravity on the moon!

What rubbish, I hope you don’t bite your tongue.

There is more gravity on the moon than knowledge in your head.

There is even enough to make your nose dribble.

” yet if they were actually on the Moon, there is no gravity to make it dribble.”

The Moon has 1/6 of the gravity of the Earth. In fact any particle, no matter how small, exerts gravity based upon its mass.

Every physical object exhibits gravity proportional to its mass. Even you have a very weak gravitational field surrounding your body. Even a potato has a gravitational field. For detection purposes, I would recommend an Idaho potato over, say, a Red Potato.

Think that one over. The moon exerts 1/6 the Earth's gravity. Not as much, but enough to still bring things that go up, down.

Er, the Moon has gravity. . . 1/6th that of Earth's gravity. A 180 pound man on Earth, stepping on the same scale on the Moon would see only 30 pounds on the dial. The Tang would still dribble. . . and it would slosh easier and longer. Sorry.

Do you have a video of that? In any case, I would say that is rather weak. Not only would the weak gravity factor in that, but i think liquid will cling to a surface beyond what gravity can account for, plus momentum from placing a canteen down.

And the gov. has been quite unsuccessful in keeping secrets, and i am also sure the Ruskies would have greatly made a fake landing a major issue.

But nothing is impossible with conspiratorialists.

Yes there is. There's no air, but there is gravity.

It's one sixth of what we have here on earth.

You need to try again.
