Food for Moon Hoaxers

Maybe they could send Brad Guth ... maybe that would convince him we
actually went to the Moon ... laugh ... he probably would believe it.

They will be told that their "spaceship" is revolving which will provide
artifiical gravity.

'Channel 4 will tell their "astronauts" they are too close to earth to
be weightless' according to this site:
http://theinternetforum.co.uk/tv/spacecadets1.php

Maybe one of them will figure it out and open the hatch, just
to see the panic on the faces of the rest of the crew

Bbo, you are truly trolling now.

....Actually, this might not have been Bbo Hallr. If it *had* been him,
he would have posted "OH OH OH OH OH!"

The source may be unwelcome, but there is a germ of an idea...do any of
these reality shows enforce a "no gifted student" rule?


Even if Bbo didn't mean "brightest", it does raise the question ;-)

Well they've been showing the trailers which is a bit of a giveaway...
unless the show's already been shot.

They better not get any sci-fi fans or they're going to be trying to
climb up to the center of the "ship" and wondering why they're not
getting any lighter as they do so.

I'm fairly sure it's a non-issue, and I'm annoyed at the contempt the
programme makers show for the audience. It's not the participants who
are being fooled, it's "us" (not me, I don't plan to watch).
"We" are supposed to believe that these people think they have been
recruited for some space mission. In secret? Anyone remember Helen
Sharman - "Astronaut Wanted - No Experience Necessary"?
Of course I could be wrong, and the "space cadets" didn't respond to an
advert for Yet Another Reality Show.

Normal practice for "reality" shows like this in the UK at least is to
isolate the contestants and a number of spares for some time before the
programme starts, usually abroad. No phones, no newspapers, no TV, and
each attention seeker gets a minder to make sure they are obeying the
rules. I think the mugs they've got for this epic have been in the
Netherlands for a month or so and will be flying to "Russia" this week.

That's almost always the case, that the show's been over by the time the
trailers are shown.
