...is on right now, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the faking of the moon landings. Turner Classics Channel, except the satellite downlink is going haywire at Comcast Cable, causing bluescreen, freezeframe and pixelation artifacts. That's merely from 30,000 miles orbit, not 250,000 miles on the Moon during Apollo, which was picture perfect with 1960s low-tech.

Has the NWO killed Capricorn Two?

It WOULD be haywire , then , because telecom sats as used for TV broadcast would have an orbital altitude of about 22,300 miles , not 30,000 as in the case you stated...

Better call ComCast and let 'em know , their satellite has drifted from its proper orbit .

Also, I think NASA used a slightly bigger antenna than Comcast supply for domestic use:

Plus, the signal wasn't compressed to buggery to squeeze 200 shopping channels into the same bandwidth.

I'm glad someone else mentioned Parkes Radio Observatory and "The Dish"
I actually got to watch most of the Apollo landings in a friends Ham Radio shack.
He was right into EME or moon bounce Ham operations.
Using a big ass dish, about 30' in diameter and an RF spectrum analyser for an S band receiver.
He and his other mates from Telecom's engineering section modified a TV for 60 fps.

I think this is why "The Apollo Hoax" gets short shrift here in Australia.
Most Australians are very proud we had such a big part in the Apollo programme.

I could eat the ass of a dead rhinoceros!
