It's about as fake as the moon landing. (meaning: It wasn't fake).
If they can afford the training stuff, they can afford a Pixar animation studio with computers whose specs destroy everyone's, and CGI programmers to do a much better fake than that. Also, I'm surprised NASA didn't pick up their launch on radar or detect Shenzou 7 using their own satellites, after all they pick up everything the Russians launch into space. No, the current technology used in stealth aircraft is too slow for use in space ships, so it's very easy to detect anything launched into space.

I meant, NASA's moon landing wasn't fake. Learn some physics and watch the video. The spacewalk wasn't fake. The "bubbles" were mistaken like the "flag flapping on the moon" was mistaken.
Did you even read the two links I posted? They're not directed at the NASA moon landing, a feat I admired. Those two links prove that the video wasn't filmed inside a training tank. And like I said, if they want to fake it, they'll use CGI, it's more practical.
Next thing you know, people will make conspiracy theories about India's upcoming space program.

Excuse me for not having a PHD in physics mister IB. Obviously I'm on no ground to contradict something that comes out of the mouth of someone as intelligent as you. After posting a video giving evidence that the Chinese moonwalk was fake, you say "just as fake as the moon landing", and you assume I'm not going to believe your talking of the moonlanding in the context that it was faked?
I never for once believed the moonlanding was faked. It was a sarcastic statement. Excuse me for not speaking English as a first language then.
From a scientific website that happens to be American:
Anyway, faking it has no purpose anyway. Even if it were underwater, admitting it's underwater would still impress the Chinese people, they'd just say "oh they're preparing to launch, can't wait, so excited" instead of "omg they launched."
The main conspiracy theories are the “bubbles” proving this space walk was filmed in a water tank, and the reflection proving it was shot in a studio. For the reasons given above, neither are a possibility. There are also some other theories such as:
So, we are presented with two options. Either, China went into space and performed a flawless 15-minute EVA, or the mother of all space hoaxes has just been carried out. So which one do you think it is? I’m betting that China did indeed get into space. The “bubbles” are in fact space debris, the reflection of “studio lights” is in fact a reflection of some equipment on the Shenzhou-7 hull, and everything else is simply hard to believe.
- There are no stars. Correct, many orbital images and video do not contain stars. This is because the Earth is usually the brightest thing (by several orders of magnitude) in shot. If there is a bright object (i.e. a white spacesuit, or bright terrestrial clouds), the camera’s aperture will close down. This has the effect of removing any faint objects from the shot. Stars will blend in with the black of space so the details of the spacewalk and Earth’s globe can be seen. If the camera aperture were to be opened, the brightness of the Earth will appear “burned out”, appearing as a bright white blob. There are measures that can be taken to decrease the contrast with the background of space, thereby picking out the pinpoints of starlight, but streaming video from space isn’t typically of the highest quality, especially if the system is automated.
- The flag looks funny. Actually it doesn’t. This is a classic piece of evidence for the Moon hoaxers, saying that the Apollo flags implanted in the lunar surface “wave” as if blown around. The same theory appears to be aired when Zhai enthusiastically waves his red Chinese flag around. Admittedly, the flag was probably made out of a stiffer material than fabric (to ensure the whole flag can be seen on camera, rather than folding into a useless knot), but there is no indication that this flag is waving underwater. It is waving an a vacuum, there’s no evidence to the contrary.
Whether you like it or not, China is indeed the third country in history to carry out a successful space walk…

Until now I thought the best was in Die Another Day, but this one is even more badass, without having to use hidden missiles and machine guns and active camo.

I'm presented with opinions that are being taken as proof. From the blog link you posted.

True, but you can't deny that a bubble does NOT work the way it "worked" in the "proof of fake video." Similarly, you can't deny the issue with the flag on the moon.

The I.S.S., which you can probably trust, detected Shenzhou 7 at a range of 45 km. Absolute proof. You think the I.S.S. actually detected a minor meteor and is just involved in another propaganda conspiracy?
