Posted September 20, 2014 Original Source: http://www.cnet.com/news/nvidias-new-gpu-sinks-moon-landing-hoax-using-virtual-light/#ftag=CADf328eec Other Source: http://www.engadget.com/2014/09/18/NVIDIA-proves-moon-landing/ Anyway, one of our research engineers happened to put this slide up of Buzz Aldrin on the moon in a meeting and said 'this speaks global illumination to me because of all the hoaxers and deniers of the moon landing." Conspiracy theorists say that Aldrin simply couldn't have been lit up the way he is in the picture. NVIDIA took it as a challenge. (Engadget) Still, Nvidia hopes its voxel global illumination demo will offer convincing evidence to finally dispel the moon landing hoax. Or at least slow its spread. (cnet) We've probably all seen or heard of this demo from Nvidia's launch of the new GTX970 and GTX980 cards. But this was one of the cooler demos they showed in my opinion. Nvidia seems to have used their fancy light engine to 'prove the moon landing; with nasa'. What do you think? I personally find it a good step forward in gaming and while it was cool for nvidia to prove the moon landing and all, I'm looking forward to the possibilities in games for this. • NCASE M1 • i5-9600k • GTX 1080 FE • Z370N-WIFI • SF600 • NH-U9S • LPX 32GB • 960EVO • I'm a self-identifying Corsair & Nvidia Fanboy; Get over it.

Posted September 20, 2014 lol ofc you can see a dude in a in pure white suit under a small shadow. it was friggin daylight I don't think you fully understand the arguments... Without an atmosphere to scatter the light, there isn't really any ambient light to illuminate shadows like on Earth. On the Moon, however, the reflectivity of the surface (as well as Neil Armstrong's spacesuit) helped reflect sunlight at the shadowed area to illuminate that spot... It's not as clear as you think.

Forget i even said anything, I only said what i have heard somewhere. And what i have heard is that When they Returned from the moon after they landed on it The Radiation in space erased the tapes.

Posted September 20, 2014 It aint a lie if it aint known. Thats like saying a blind person lies if he says something like "Grass is red" He aint lying since he havent seen the grass, He only says what he have heard and he maybe was told grass was red.

Thats like saying a blind person lies if he says something like "Grass is red" He aint lying since he havent seen the grass, He only says what he have heard and he maybe was told grass was red. Look around a bit. You aren't quite wrong, but it was too hasty and garbage phrasing. People saw it live. That was live. It was literally live. About 5 years ago reports came out of them accidentally erasing the originals, so they had to restore them. The ones you can find aren't "Faked", but restored. And they may still yet find unaltered unofficial originals. http://www.reuters.com/article/2009/07/16/us-nasa-tapes-idUSTRE56F5MK20090716 http://www.theguardian.com/science/2009/jul/16/moon-landing-tapes-erased http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=106637066 I'll continue editing and showing more that I find.

Stop talking shit. And next time you hear something, don't just be a gullable twat and accept that as the truth and start telling everyone what you 'heard' do some research and make your own mind up.

Posted September 21, 2014 Nvidia just admitted to helping NASA fake the landing with advanced rendering techniques that they then had to bury from the public for decades so people wouldn't catch on.

Posted September 21, 2014 Cool, does this mean we can expect AMD to retaliate and prove Elvis is actually dead? Grammar and spelling is not indicative of intelligence/knowledge. Not having the same opinion does not always mean lack of understanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
