The Force is Strong With This One
I just finished reading the yellow book n° 6. In this book, many topics are of interest and other subject to cautious.
One topic just stay in my mind: is air on the atmosphere of the moon?
The book says yes and refer mainly to a video of the nasa (before it was removed) where the american flag moved. It is written that people live in the underground, that air is available and the gravity is different than the public story.

I can't find any answer in the different topics here: https://cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php/board,16.0.html
I dont know if it has been addressed by the Cs.

Any info from the group?
Thanks
 
Hello mum-didi,
We can say there is a sort of an atmosphere on the moon, although it is far less dense than on Earth. Compared to Earth it's almost nothing.
As for the "floating" flag on the moon, it could have been induced by solar wind and undamped vibrations in a very rarefied atmosphere. There might be some electrostatic forces as well but it's difficult to speculate on. Just to say a flag floating on the moon may be possible, but it does not mean that the footages are genuine ;)

I read those books (n° 5,6 and 7) many years ago and as you said many topics are of interest and other subjects to cautious.

However, in the many topics that are of interest, the feeling that I still have about those books is that you have to be careful while reading it because there are disinformation in them.
 
Is There Air On The Moon: Busted Wide Open Edition:


Some context: Galileo's theory of gravity reasoned that air pressure was the reason that caused certain objects (like feathers) to fall more slowly than other objects. An absence of air (therefore air pressure) causes objects of similar relative mass to the moon to fall at the same speed.

The same experiment on earth, first with atmosphere and second without:

 
"Mythbusters" on TV did an episode where they found that a flag that was planted in a vacuum chamber would keep on moving or waving for a longer time from the initial momentum of being "planted", compared with a flag planted in Earth's normal atmospheric pressure:

"Without drag or friction from the air, the momentum of Grant's planting action lasts for a surprising amount of time" - 2:18 on the video.
