Richard Chats with GPT about A trip to the moon and coming back, ship and ground based field methods, synthetic 3D acceleration fields

This is a little tongue in cheek because GPT 4 is not reliable for any calculations and a pain to work with.  But the basic outline is about right, and gives what I have been working on for some decades.  More the last two decades. It is fun gathering and building models of the real
