So you're not satisfied with refuting the Standard Model in particle physics, but you now have to go after the validity of simple thermodynamics (sublimation as a cooling mechanism in a vacuum)? Well, you can either keep digging a deeper hole or simply put away the fire hose. I have not the time or inclination to engage in a whack-a-link Gish Gallup with a poster who simply raises the ghosts of long-debunked hoaxer theories (e.g., no "blast crater" under the LM DPS engine bell, you said it was a 10,000 lb. thrust, but you do not understand that the LM DPS could be throttled to a lower limit of 12.2% full thrust as the LM landed). You clearly don't know what you're talking about when it comes to thermal control for spacecraft. The ISS doesn't need sublimation plates because it is a large enough structure and has a heat load larger than that generated by metabolic function so it requires the liquid ammonia system they use. In one case you're talking about a portable system needed to sustain one human for up to seven hours, another for a large structure in a weightless environment meant to function for decades and handle heat generated by tons of equipment, not just life functions. Can't you see the requirements are different? Don't you understand that in such a circumstance the systems one would employ might be very different?

It is a useless waste of time to try to discuss something meaningful with someone who denies the validity of established physical theory. Go ahead and embarrass yourself with the last word, if you want. It will probably be just more hoaxer nonsense, good for a laugh.

Tally the ways of my presumed heresy!

I deduce from what you wrote that you're not a pilot, nor that you have studied the video from the flying simulation rig that Aldrin and Armstrong trained on to land the LM. The final thrust percentage was high most of time. From what I saw, they rarely would have gotten an actual LM down safely. IIRC, I believe the last terrestrial trial before the Apollo 11 mission resulted in an ejection, parachute landing and demolished rig.

But even if the LM were to have used the 12.2% final thrust that someone has fed you, any thoughtful person should realize that it necessarily would have disturbed more than a few grams of regolith mere inches below the engine nozzle! The image shows no disturbance whatsoever, but something is blocking you. Inculcated disdain for me, perhaps? I think it likely that it's the faux religion to which you've given yourself over.

If and when you realize that you've listened to and placed your confidence in the Deep State's quasi-religious bishops and their stooge media handlers, all on a nearly infinite payroll (i.e., they're mercenaries, bought-and-paid-for), instead of paying attention to supremely talented, unbiased men of principle that have accomplished truly great things and are responsible for the many great things in our modern world, perhaps a glint of truth may dawn on you.

To such a world of hateful, cancel-culture insulters it is that you seem to have chosen to belong!

Nonetheless, I wish you well.
