    Kubrick did actually film a fake version of the moon landing, but he was such a perfectionist that he made them film it on location … thus making the fake moon landing real

    That’s the first draft script of 2001, as written by an old-fashioned AI ‘expert system.’

    Kubrik decided it was more cost-effective to just have HAL sing ‘Daisy, Daisy.’

        I’m a little offended at referring to her as the director’s assistant, given what she actually did. It could have been just as good a shitpost if she had been referred to as his screenwriter and not diminished how instrumental she was.

          Fair point, even being a shitpost and all. I wanted to say lead writer + her name, but then it would have been hard to also mention Kubrick, making ppl realize the joke.

          Regardless, she is an amazing person who achieved a lot already very young, and continued to do so. Btw she just turned 90 a day or two, that prompted me to create the post.

      She coined the term “software engineering,” was the first software engineet, and also led NASA’s software engineering division for the moon landing.

      She led the team that did the code for the moon landing.

      For a while this picture was used with a caption saying she wrote the whole thing by hand. What she did was impressive enough without needing to lie.

      Easy to confuse, but Judith Love Cohen was an electrical engineer who worked on the Apollo program, as well. She’s credited with work that saved the Apollo 13 astronauts. She later became Jack Black’s mom.

    If Kubrick had filmed a fake moon landing the conspiracy wouldn’t exist. The nimrods that believe that shit couldn’t begin to fathom how much of an insane perfectionist he was, he’d have created his own moon

      I like your way of thinking here. I’m honestly not sure if the actual geologists working on lunar soil simulants today are more hardcore than Kubrick was back then.

      With all the cuts to NASA and the American scientific enterprise generally, we could use this kind of angel perfectionist director these days. I wonder if Denis Villeneuve could be convinced to forget about Arrakis for a while and work closer to home…

          It won’t, certainly not directly. It would help individual scientists if they can land funding from non-governmental sources, though.
