Default Moon's Gravity Effects On Video

I know this subject has been done before but if someone could answer my quesion, I would be grateful.

Isn't it possible through careful, scientific analysis of the video of hopping & running under influence of the moon's gravity (and the resulting dust arcs, etc.) prove that these kind of activities physically could never happen on earth as depicted?

Cheers,
RBG

We've discussing this topic several times before. I'm sure someone will dig up the appropriate threads.

In order to "fake" this on Earth, one would a very very very large vacuum chamber on the order of at least 200 ft by 200 ft by several dozen feet tall, maybe more. Nothing of Earth comes close to that right now. One of the biggest chambers is here in Houston. Its useable dimensions are 55 ft and 90 ft tall. It was used to test the Apollo CSM, but clearly not enough to fake a lunar exploration. Look at how big the supporting structure is and now image this much larger.

Chamber B is pretty cool too.

Faking the arcs of dust would also require artificial gravity.

So when HB's are given the opportunity to have their own physics "experts" examine & measure this data and compare these measurements to known physical laws, how do they then explain it away?

My guess is that one response might be along the lines of:

1. NASA and TPTB had secret computational resources, far in advance of what we were told then, and the moon video is all CGI;

2. But still, there did not exist enough computational power to actually send a craft to the moon.

Actually the usual tactic is to ignore whatever you can't explain away with hand waving. If you don't see it or hear it then it doesn't exist, period.
