How do we account for the anomolies?

This video sounds motivated by the move "Moonfall". Both are wastes of time watching.

I distinctly recall reading a newspaper story after the Apollo 12 mission in November 1969 where after the 2 astronauts returned from the Moon's surface and re-entered the Command/Service Modules they deliberately crashed the ascent stage of the Lunar Module into the Moon to test the seismographs left there by them and Apollo 11.

When the ascent stage of the Lunar Module hit the Moon it created a 'ringing bell' effect on the seismographs and the scientists who analyzed the data said "the idea of a hollow Moon has never occurred to us at any time until now".

Never heard anything more about it after that. I don't really believe the Moon is some sort of ancient giant space station (Death Star?)  :o but it did seem very unusual.

Of course the moon is hollow. That was known as far back as 1952. Otherwise, the Radar Men would be in plain view. The delays for Artemis 1 are their work.

I'm not sure whether or not the video's a spoof, or meant to be a serious discussion.
I know that Andrew Gentile is a leading conspiracy theorist—Joe Rogan loves him—but
does he actually believe in the sort of absurd crap he posts to YouTube?

This is the most current representation of the moon I could find...


Two models of the interior of the Moon. On the left,
the lunar interior divided into the crust and mantle. On
the right, the lunar interior divided into crust, mantle
and metallic core.

This has nothing to do with the movie, 'Moonfall', and everything to do with the moon being weird.

Also, I don't think you understand the premise of 'The Why Files'. Essentially, he tells bizarre tales in a compelling way, and then like all good skeptics, he debunks them... with various levels of success.

Here is another example of his work, also related to the moon... sort of... and the weirdness of the CIA.

Its not really hollow, its just that the old creme cheese is crusty on the outside, but still soft on the inside.

Obviously the Moon is NOT hollow, as the gravitation can be calculated by its dimensions.

The tidal pull would not be as strong if it was hollow.

I do wonder just how low the intelligence of some people can go.  :D

"How did the moon form and why?" type questions. The hollow-moon theory. All sorts of suggestions lead to people surmising that he was motivated to investigate after watching "Moonfall".

Yes;  it was impossible not to note that Gentile never once mentioned the
gravitational force of attraction.   Most probably because he's scientifically
illiterate.  Then again, he gets millions of site views—mainly because of the
gullibility of his conspiracy-theory viewership.  Which most probably includes
a large number of anti-vaxxers LOL.

Adding to my earlier post (and I'm impressed with myself that I remembered this after over 50 years). 8-)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_Moon#The_Moon_rang_like_a_bell


Quote:
The Moon rang like a bell

Between 1969 and 1977, seismometers installed on the Moon by the Apollo missions recorded moonquakes. The Moon was described as "ringing like a bell" during some of those quakes, specifically the shallow ones. This phrase was brought to popular attention in March 1970 in an article in Popular Science.

On November 20, 1969, Apollo 12 deliberately crashed the Ascent Stage of its Lunar Module onto the Moon's surface; NASA reported that the Moon rang 'like a bell' for almost an hour, leading to arguments that it must be hollow like a bell. Lunar seismology experiments since then have shown that the lunar body has shallow moonquakes that act differently from quakes on Earth, due to differences in texture, type and density of the planetary strata, but there is no evidence of any large empty space inside the body.


But, after more research it turned out the Moon wasn't actually hollow, of course.
