STRANGE MOON FACTS

link

The moon is the Rosetta stone of the planets." —Robert Jastrow, First Chairman, NASA Lunar Exploration Committee

After hundreds of years of detailed observation and study, our closest companion in the vast universe, Earth’s moon, remains an enigma. Six moon landings and hundreds of experiments have resulted in more questions being asked than answered. Among them:

1. Moon’s Age: The moon is far older than previously expected. Maybe even older than the Earth or the Sun. The oldest age for the Earth is estimated to be 4.6 billion years old; moon rocks were dated at 5.3 billion years old, and the dust upon which they were resting was at least another billion years older.

2. Rock’s Origin: The chemical composition of the dust upon which the rocks sat differed remarkably from the rocks themselves, contrary to accepted theories that the dust resulted from weathering and breakup of the rocks themselves. The rocks had to have come from somewhere else.

3. Heavier Elements on Surface: Normal planetary composition results in heavier elements in the core and lighter materials at the surface; not so with the moon. According to Wilson, "The abundance of refractory elements like titanium in the surface areas is so pronounced that several geologists proposed the refractory compounds were brought to the moon’s surface in great quantity in some unknown way. They don’t know how, but that it was done cannot be questioned." (Emphasis added).

4. Water Vapor: On March 7, 1971, lunar instruments placed by the astronauts recorded a vapor cloud of water passing across the surface of the moon. The cloud lasted 14 hours and covered an area of about 100 square miles.

5. Magnetic Rocks: Moon rocks were magnetized. This is odd because there is no magnetic field on the moon itself. This could not have originated from a "close call" with Earth—such an encounter would have ripped the moon apart.

6. No Volcanoes: Some of the moon’s craters originated internally, yet there is no indication that the moon was ever hot enough to produce volcanic eruptions.

7. Moon Mascons: Mascons, which are large, dense, circular masses lying twenty to forty miles beneath the centers of the moon’s maria, "are broad, disk-shaped objects that could be possibly some kind of artificial construction. For huge circular disks are not likely to be beneath each huge maria, centered like bull’s-eyes in the middle of each, by coincidence or accident." (Emphasis added).

8. Seismic Activity: Hundreds of "moonquakes" are recorded each year that cannot be attributed to meteor strikes. In November, 1958, Soviet astronomer Nikolay A. Kozyrev of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory photographed a gaseous eruption of the moon near the crater Alphonsus. He also detected a reddish glow that lasted for about an hour. In 1963, astronomers at the Lowell Observatory also saw reddish glows on the crests of ridges in the Aristarchus region. These observations have proved to be precisely identical and periodical, repeating themselves as the moon moves closer to the Earth. These are probably not natural phenomena.

9. Hollow Moon: The moon’s mean density is 3.34 gm/cm3 (3.34 times an equal volume of water) whereas the Earth’s is 5.5. What does this mean? In 1962, NASA scientist Dr. Gordon MacDonald stated, "If the astronomical data are reduced, it is found that the data require that the interior of the moon is more like a hollow than a homogeneous sphere." Nobel chemist Dr. Harold Urey suggested the moon’s reduced density is because of large areas inside the moon where is "simply a cavity." MIT’s Dr. Sean C. Solomon wrote, "the Lunar Orbiter experiments vastly improved our knowledge of the moon’s gravitational field . . . indicating the frightening possibility that the moon might be hollow." In Carl Sagan’s treatise, Intelligent Life in the Universe, the famous astronomer stated, "A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object."

10. Moon Echoes: On November 20, 1969, the Apollo 12 crew jettisoned the lunar module ascent stage causing it to crash onto the moon. The LM’s impact (about 40 miles from the Apollo 12 landing site) created an artificial moonquake with startling characteristics—the moon reverberated like a bell for more than an hour. This phenomenon was repeated with Apollo 13 (intentionally commanding the third stage to impact the moon), with even more startling results. Seismic instruments recorded that the reverberations lasted for three hours and twenty minutes and traveled to a depth of twenty-five miles, leading to the conclusion that the moon has an unusually light—or even no—core.

11. Unusual Metals: The moon’s crust is much harder than presumed. Remember the extreme difficulty the astronauts encountered when they tried to drill into the maria? Surprise! The maria is composed primarily illeminite, a mineral containing large amounts of titanium, the same metal used to fabricate the hulls of deep-diving submarines and the skin of the SR-71 "Blackbird". Uranium 236 and neptunium 237 (elements not found in nature on Earth) were discovered in lunar rocks, as were rustproof iron particles.

12. Moon’s Origin: Before the astronauts’ moon rocks conclusively disproved the theory, the moon was believed to have originated when a chunk of Earth broke off eons ago (who knows from where?). Another theory was that the moon was created from leftover "space dust" remaining after the Earth was created. Analysis of the composition of moon rocks disproved this theory also. Another popular theory is that the moon was somehow "captured" by the Earth’s gravitational attraction. But no evidence exists to support this theory. Isaac Asimov, stated, "It’s too big to have been captured by the Earth. The chances of such a capture having been effected and the moon then having taken up nearly circular orbit around our Earth are too small to make such an eventuality credible."

13. Weird Orbit: Our moon is the only moon in the solar system that has a stationary, near-perfect circular orbit. Stranger still, the moon’s center of mass is about 6000 feet closer to the Earth than its geometric center (which should cause wobbling), but the moon’s bulge is on the far side of the moon, away from the Earth. "Something" had to put the moon in orbit with its precise altitude, course, and speed.

14. Moon Diameter: How does one explain the "coincidence" that the moon is just the right distance, coupled with just the right diameter, to completely cover the sun during an eclipse? Again, Isaac Asimov responds, "There is no astronomical reason why the moon and the sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidences, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion."

15. Spaceship Moon: As outrageous as the Moon-Is-a-Spaceship Theory is, all of the above items are resolved if one assumes that the moon is a gigantic extraterrestrial craft, brought here eons ago by intelligent beings. This is the only theory that is supported by all of the data, and there are no data that contradict this theory.

Greek authors Aristotle and Plutarch, and Roman authors Apolllonius Rhodius and Ovid all wrote of a group of people called the Proselenes who lived in the central mountainous area of Greece called Arcadia The Proselenes claimed title to this area because their forebears were there "before there was a moon in the heavens." This claim is substantiated by symbols on the wall of the Courtyard of Kalasasaya, near the city of Tiahuanaco, Bolivia, which record that the moon came into orbit around the Earth between 11,500 and 13, 000 years ago, long before recorded history.

1. Ages of Flashes: Aristarchus, Plato, Eratosthenes, Biela, Rabbi Levi, and Posidonius all reported anomalous lights on the moon. NASA, one year before the first lunar landing, reported 570+ lights and flashes were observed on the moon from 1540 to 1967.

2. Operation Moon Blink: NASA’s Operation Moon Blink detected 28 lunar events in a relatively short period of time.

3. Lunar Bridge: On July 29, 1953, John J. O’Neill observed a 12-mile-long bridge straddling the crater Mare Crisium. In August, British astronomer Dr. H.P. Wilkens verified its presence, "It looks artificial. It’s almost incredible that such a thing could have been formed in the first instance, or if it was formed, could have lasted during the ages in which the moon has been in existence.

4. The Shard: The Shard, an obelisk-shaped object that towers 1½ miles from the Ukert area of the moon’s surface, was discovered by Orbiter

3 in 1968. Dr. Bruce Cornet, who studied the amazing photographs, stated, "No known natural process can explain such a structure."

5. The Tower: One of the most curious features ever photographed on the Lunar surface (Lunar Orbiter photograph III-84M) is an amazing spire that rises more than 5 miles from the Sinus Medii region of the lunar surface.

6. The Obelisks: Lunar Orbiter II took several photographs in November 1966 that showed several obelisks, one of which was more than 150 feet tall. ". . . the spires were arranged in precisely the same was as the apices of the three great pyramids."

SPACECONSPIRACY: Moon, where are you from?

By Yingzhong Lu, selected from The Crown, 499, September 1995

When did the moon first accompany our earth?
Perhaps it has been
looking at the earth long before human beings appeared on earth. People say
that there is a Freezing-Cold Palace on the moon where an ancient beauty
named Chang-E lives, along with a white rabbit and a man called Wu Gang,
whose daily work is to chop cassia trees. Nonetheless, the American
astronauts from the Apollo 11 mission to the moon on July 19, 1969 did not
see the Freezing-Cold Palace, nor Lady Chang-E and her rabbit, nor Wu Gang
and his cassia trees. Many of us charmed by the legend were somewhat
disappointed by the scientific findings.

Twenty-six years have passed since the first moon landing, yet human
beings are no wiser than before about the moon. On the contrary, scientists
are now perplexed by the data gathered by the instruments left on the moon.

When we look at the moon at night, we a have familiar yet strange feeling.
We can't help but ask, "Dear moon, could you tell us about your true self?"
At present, there are three theories to explain how the moon
originated. The first one is that the dust and gaseous clouds from the
universe formed the moon, just like our earth, 4.6 billion years ago. The
second theory is that the moon was thrown off from the earth and the Pacific
Ocean is the place from which it came. The third theory believes that the
moon was an independent planet that was captured by the earth's
gravitational force when passing by, and it has been revolving around the
earth ever since.

Most scientists initially believed in the first theory, although some
favoured the second one. Yet, analysis of the moon soil samples brought
back by astronauts indicates that the composition of the moon is different
from that of the earth. The earth has more iron and less silicon deposited
in it, while the moon is just the opposite. In addition, the earth has very
few titanium ores, whereas the moon has many. These findings show that the
moon was not separated from the earth. By the same token, the first
hypothesis is also shaky. If the moon and earth were formed through the
same process, at around the same time, then why are they so different in
their composition? Scientists have abandoned the first theory, which leaves
only the last theory. If the moon entered the solar system from outer
space, it should have flown towards the Sun instead of being held by the
earth, because of the sun's much stronger gravitational pull.
None of the three hypotheses proposed by orthodox scientists answers
all of the questions or holds up to scrutiny. The origin of the moon still
remains a mystery. There is plenty of room for people to propose new
theories on the origin of the moon. No matter how ridiculous the theories
may seem, they should not be lightly labeled nonscientific.

The Peculiar Phenomena Between the Sun, Earth, and Moon

Let's take a look at and think about some of the unbelievably peculiar
astronomical phenomena that occur between the sun, earth and moon.
The average distance between the earth and the moon is 380,000 km, and
between the sun and the earth is about 150,000,000 km. The latter is about
395 times further than the former. The diameter of the sun is about
1,380,000 km, while that of the moon is 3,400 km; the ratio of the two is
again 395 times greater. Both ratios are 395. Could it be a coincidence?
What does it mean?
Please think about it. The sun is 395 times larger than the moon, yet
it is 395 times farther away from the earth than the moon. The two appear
the same size when seen from earth because of the distance differences.

Is this a natural or artificial phenomenon? Where in the universe can one find
three celestial bodies with this kind of coincidence?

The two planets shine on the earth in turns, one during the day and
the other at night. There is not another example of such phenomena in our
solar system. The prestigious scientist, Isaac Asimov, once said that,
according to all the data available, the moon in principle should not exist
in that position. He also said, "The moon is big enough to result in a
solar eclipse, yet small enough to generate corona. Our astronomy just
can't explain the coincidence among the coincidences."

Is it really a coincidence? Not really, according to some scientists.
William R. Sheldon, a scientist, said, "In order to orbit around the earth,
a spaceship has to maintain a velocity of 10,800 miles per hour at a height
of 100 miles. Similarly, in order for the moon to keep itself in its orbit
to balance the earth's gravitational force, it also needs accurate velocity,
self-weight, and altitude." The question is: if the current set of
conditions is impossible to achieve by nature, why are they this way?

It's Too Big to be a Satellite

There are several planets in the solar system that have naturally
occurring satellites. However, the moon is unnaturally large for a
satellite. It is too large in comparison to its parent planet. Let us take
a look at the following data. The earth's diameter is 12,756 km; the moon's
is 3,467 km, which is about 27% that of the earth's. Mars' diameter is
6,787 km. Mars has two satellites. The larger one has a diameter of 23 km,
about 0.34% that of Mars. Jupiter's diameter is 142,800 km. It has 13
satellites. The largest one has a diameter of 5,000 km, which is 3.5% of
Jupiter's. Saturn's diameter is 120,000 km. It has 23 satellites. The
largest one has a diameter of 4,500 km, which is about 3.75% of Saturn's
diameter. None of the satellites has a diameter exceeding 5% of the parent
planet's diameter, but the moon's is 27% of the earth's diameter. Isn't the
moon unnaturally large by comparison? The data indeed indicates that the
moon is extraordinary.

The Meteorite Craters Are All Too Shallow

Scientists tell us that the craters on the surface of the moon were
caused by the impact of meteors or comets. There are also meteorite craters
on earth. According to scientific calculations, if a meteorite of several
miles in diameter hits the earth or the moon at a speed of 30,000 miles per
second, which is equivalent to one million tons of dynamite, the depth of
the crater it creates should be four to five times that of its diameter.
The meteorite craters on earth prove this to be correct. Yet the craters on
the moon are strangely shallow. For example, Gagrin Crater, the deepest
one, is only four miles deep, although its diameter is 186 miles. With a
diameter of 186 miles, the depth of the crater should be at least 700 miles,
instead of 4 miles, which is just 12% of the diameter. This is another
scientific impossibility.
Why is it so? Astronomers are unable to come up with a perfect
explanation and they don't seem to want to either. They know that a perfect
explanation would overturn established theories. The only explanation is
that the moon's crust is composed of a very hard substance four miles
beneath the surface. The meteorites have failed to penetrate this hard
layer. Then, what is the very hard substance?

Metals Whose Existence is Impossible

It is not strange that the moon craters have a great deal of lava.
What is strange is that the lava contains rich metal elements such as
titanium, chromium, yttrium, etc., which are rarely found on earth. Those
metals are all very hard and resistant to both high temperatures and
corrosion. Scientists estimate that it requires 2000-3000( C to melt these
metals. But the moon has been a dead and cold planet without volcanic
activity for three billion years. How did the moon generate so many kinds
of metals that require such high temperatures to melt? Moreover, analysis
of the 380 kg of moon soil samples brought back by astronauts shows that
there is pure iron and pure titanium. Such pure metal deposits just aren't
found under natural conditions.
What do the unexplainable facts tell us? They have undoubtedly
demonstrated that these metal elements were not formed under natural
conditions, but were extracted. Then the questions is by whom and when?

The Side that Can't Be Seen from the Earth

It is always the same side of the moon that faces the earth. Man did
not see the opposite side until the spaceship landed there and photographed
it. Astronomers had always thought that the backside should be similar to
the front with many meteorite craters and lava seas. But the photographs
showed a much different scene. The backside of the moon is very bumpy.
Most are small craters and mountain ranges with very few lava seas.
Scientists are unable to explain the differences. In theory, the
probability of being hit by meteorites should be the same for both sides of
the moon if it was a naturally formed planet. Why is there a difference?
Why is it always the same side of the moon that faces the earth? The
explanation from the scientists is that the moon rotates around its own axis
with a velocity of 16.56 km per hour, and it also revolves around the earth
at exactly the same speed. Thus the same side always faces the earth.
This phenomenon does not exist for any other planet and its satellites
in our solar system-only for our earth and moon. Is it another coincidence
along with the other coincidences? Is there an explanation other than
coincidence?

Strange Phenomena in the Past Hundreds of Years

For the last 300 hundred years, astronomers have observed many
unexplainable phenomena about the moon. Casini discovered a cluster of
clouds over the moon in 1671. In April 1786, William Herser, the father of
modern astronomy, observed the signs of volcanic eruptions on the moon,
although scientists believe that there has not been any volcanic activity on
the moon for 3 billion years. Then, what was observed that looked like
volcanic eruptions?
In 1843, German astronomer John Schicoto, who made hundreds of maps of
the moon, found that the Leany Crater, with an original diameter of several
kilometers, was becoming smaller. Today, the Leany Crater is only a tiny
spot with white sediment surrounding it. Scientists do not know why. On
April 24, 1882, scientists discovered that there were unidentified objects
moving on the surface in the Aristocrat's Zone. On October 19, 1945, the
Darwin Wall on the surface of the moon was observed to have three shiny
points on it.
On the evening of July 6, 1954, the head of the Minnesota Observatory
and his assistants saw a dark line inside the Picallomy Crater, which
shortly disappeared. On September 8, 1955, lightning appeared twice along
the edge of the Ross Crater. Again on February 9, 1956, Dr. Toyota, Meiji
University, Japan, saw several dark objects that seemed to have formed the
shape of letters DYAX and JWA.
On February 4, 1966, a Russian unmanned space-vehicle, Moon Goddess 9,
landed on the Rain Sea and photographed two rows of pyramid-like structures
that were equidistant from each other. Dr. Van Sunder stated, "They could
strongly reflect the sunlight, pretty much like the marks on runways."
Calculated from the length of the shadows, the structures are about as high
as a fifteen-story building. Dr. Van Sunder said, "There were no highlands
nearby from which the rocks would have rolled over to the current positions
to form the geometrical shapes."
Additionally, Moon Goddess 9 also photographed a mysterious cave on
the edge of the Stormy Sea. Moon research expert Dr. Wilkins believes that
these circular caves go directly to the center of the moon. Wilkins himself
once discovered a gigantic cave at Casiny Crater A. On November 20, 1966,
American Orbit 2 Exploration Spaceship photographed several pyramid-like
structures from 46 km above the Tranquility Sea. Scientists estimated that
the pyramids are 15 to 25 metres high and that they are also geometrically
positioned. The structures are lighter in colour than the rocks and soil
around them and they are obviously not natural objects.
On September 11, 1967, the Montelow Team of astronomers discovered a
"black cloud with purple borders" over the Tranquility Sea. The strange
phenomena were not observed by laypeople, but by astronomers and spaceship
probes. This means that the moon does have many mysteries unknown to human
beings.

UFO over the Moon

On November 24, 1968, Apollo 8, while investigating future landing
spots, encountered a colossal floating object that occupied several square
miles. When Apollo 8 came back to the same spot from its orbital lap around
the moon, the object was no longer there. What was it? No one knows.
Apollo 10, while at 50,000 feet above the moon, was approached by an
unidentified flying object. This encounter was documented on film. On July
19, 1969, Apollo 11 carried three astronauts to the moon who later became
the first men on the moon. En route to the moon, the astronauts saw an
unusual object in front of them. Viewing at a distance of about 6,000
miles, they initially thought that it must be the rocket propeller from the
Apollo 4. Looking through binoculars, they found that the object was
L-shaped. "It looked like an opened briefcase," said Armstrong. Looking
further through a sextant, they found the object looked like a cylinder.
Another astronaut, Aldrin, said, "We also saw several smaller objects
passing by, causing turbulence to our ship, then we saw this brighter object
flying by." On July 21, when Aldrin entered the Landing Capsule for final
check-up, he suddenly saw two floating objects. One of them was bigger and
brighter, flying at high speed in parallel to the spaceship's front, which
shortly disappeared. It reemerged a few seconds later. At that moment the
two objects shot out two light beams that joined together. Then they
suddenly separated from each other, ascended rapidly and disappeared.
When the astronauts were about to land on the moon, they heard the
voice from Control Center, "Control Center calling Apollo 11, what are they
out there?" Apollo 11 answered, "These babes are humongous, Sir . . . a lot
of them . . .Oh, my God, you won't believe it. Let me tell you there are
other spaceships there . . . by the edge of the circular craters, and they
are well positioned . . . and they are watching us from the moon . . .."
Russian scientist Dr. Arched said, "According to our intercepted signals,
the encounter with floating objects as the Apollo 11 landed was immediately
reported." On November 20, 1969, astronauts Conrad and Brian of Apollo 12
observed floating objects when they landed on the moon. Astronauts landing
on the moon from Apollo 15 in August 1971, Apollo 16 in April 1972, and
Apollo 17 in December 1972 also encountered the floating objects.
Gary, a scientist, once said, "Almost all the astronauts have seen
some unidentified flying objects." Edwards, the sixth astronaut to land on
the moon, said, "The only question is where they came from." John Younger,
the ninth astronaut on the moon, said, "If you don't believe it, it is like
you don't believe in a sure thing." In 1979, former NASA Director of
Communication Molly Chertlin stated that "encountering the floating objects"
is very common. She went on, "All the spaceships have been followed by some
floating objects either at a distance or very closely. Whenever it happens,
the astronauts would contact our mission center."
Years later, Armstrong revealed, "It is incredible . . . We were all
warned that there are for sure cities or spaceships on the moon . . . I can
only say that their spaceships are much superior and they are huge . . .."
Thousands of the lunar mystical phenomena, such as the mysterious lightning,
white and black clouds, structures, floating objects and so on, are all
facts observed by astronomers and scientists. They are yet to be explained
as to what they are.

The Moon is a Hollow Spaceship

In 1970, Russian scientists Alexander Scherbakov and Mihkai Vasin
proposed a shocking Spaceship Moon hypothesis to explain the origin of the
moon. They believe that the moon is in fact not a natural satellite of the
earth, but a spaceship created by intelligent beings that modified and
reshaped a planet. There are a lot documents regarding their civilization
stored inside the moon, which was intentionally placed above the earth. All
of the discoveries of the moon are in fact the outstanding work of the
intelligent beings that live inside of it. Of course, the scientific
community is scornful of the theory, because they have not captured any ET
yet. Nonetheless, it is undeniable that the moon has been shown to be
hollow by data gathered so far.
What perplexes scientists the most is the data gathered from the
instruments left on the moon which measure the quake activities of the
moon's crust. The data indicates that the quake waves spread from the
epicenter along the surface of the moon only, but not into the center of the
moon. This shows that the moon is hollow and it is nothing but a crust. If
it was a solid planet, the quake waves should also propagate toward the
center. How could they only go along the surface?

Reconstruct New Theories About the Moon

Let's construct a new theory about the moon. It is hollow and has two
layers of crust. The outer crust consists of rocks and mineral ores.
Meteorites can only hit through this crust. The known craters are no deeper
than four miles. Thus, this outer crust is at most five miles thick. The
inner crust is a hard, artificial alloy shell of unknown thickness-probably
several miles. Its metal elements include iron, titanium, chromium, and
others that resist high temperatures, high pressure and corrosion. It is an
alloy unknown on earth.
The moonquake data indicates that moonquake waves propagate along the
moon's surface but not towards its center. This means that the moon only
has two layers of crust. Thus the moon must be artificial, rather than
naturally formed. Intelligent beings must have conducted accurate
calculations to transport the moon from their star system to the solar
system and to position it where it is in order to provide light to the earth
at night. In conclusion, none of the three traditional theories of the
origin of the moon is correct.
The beings that constructed the moon allow only one side of the moon
to face the earth because there are many observation devices on the earth.
They themselves live inside the moon closer to the back. Because the
surface temperature of the moon varies from 127( C at noon to -183( C at
night, the inhabitants live inside the moon.
The moon-making beings have invented flying saucers and they often fly
out to do research, maintain their surface devices, or to watch the
earthlings' activities. They are thus sometimes seen by astronauts from
earth or observed by telescopes on earth. We don't yet know what kind of
aliens they are or how long they have been there. Perhaps before long,
earthlings will find out the truth about the moon.
We have constructed this theory to explain the origin and structure of
the moon by using the lunar phenomena that cannot be explained by
traditional science. This theory perfectly solves each and every mystery
surrounding the moon. Who would argue that our approach is non-scientific?

Orion11 Avalon Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Posts: 1,098	Re: Everything Moon whole mess of stuff... STRANGE MOON FACTS link The moon is the Rosetta stone of the planets." —Robert Jastrow, First Chairman, NASA Lunar Exploration Committee After hundreds of years of detailed observation and study, our closest companion in the vast universe, Earth’s moon, remains an enigma. Six moon landings and hundreds of experiments have resulted in more questions being asked than answered. Among them: 1. Moon’s Age: The moon is far older than previously expected. Maybe even older than the Earth or the Sun. The oldest age for the Earth is estimated to be 4.6 billion years old; moon rocks were dated at 5.3 billion years old, and the dust upon which they were resting was at least another billion years older. 2. Rock’s Origin: The chemical composition of the dust upon which the rocks sat differed remarkably from the rocks themselves, contrary to accepted theories that the dust resulted from weathering and breakup of the rocks themselves. The rocks had to have come from somewhere else. 3. Heavier Elements on Surface: Normal planetary composition results in heavier elements in the core and lighter materials at the surface; not so with the moon. According to Wilson, "The abundance of refractory elements like titanium in the surface areas is so pronounced that several geologists proposed the refractory compounds were brought to the moon’s surface in great quantity in some unknown way. They don’t know how, but that it was done cannot be questioned." (Emphasis added). 4. Water Vapor: On March 7, 1971, lunar instruments placed by the astronauts recorded a vapor cloud of water passing across the surface of the moon. The cloud lasted 14 hours and covered an area of about 100 square miles. 5. Magnetic Rocks: Moon rocks were magnetized. This is odd because there is no magnetic field on the moon itself. This could not have originated from a "close call" with Earth—such an encounter would have ripped the moon apart. 6. No Volcanoes: Some of the moon’s craters originated internally, yet there is no indication that the moon was ever hot enough to produce volcanic eruptions. 7. Moon Mascons: Mascons, which are large, dense, circular masses lying twenty to forty miles beneath the centers of the moon’s maria, "are broad, disk-shaped objects that could be possibly some kind of artificial construction. For huge circular disks are not likely to be beneath each huge maria, centered like bull’s-eyes in the middle of each, by coincidence or accident." (Emphasis added). 8. Seismic Activity: Hundreds of "moonquakes" are recorded each year that cannot be attributed to meteor strikes. In November, 1958, Soviet astronomer Nikolay A. Kozyrev of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory photographed a gaseous eruption of the moon near the crater Alphonsus. He also detected a reddish glow that lasted for about an hour. In 1963, astronomers at the Lowell Observatory also saw reddish glows on the crests of ridges in the Aristarchus region. These observations have proved to be precisely identical and periodical, repeating themselves as the moon moves closer to the Earth. These are probably not natural phenomena. 9. Hollow Moon: The moon’s mean density is 3.34 gm/cm3 (3.34 times an equal volume of water) whereas the Earth’s is 5.5. What does this mean? In 1962, NASA scientist Dr. Gordon MacDonald stated, "If the astronomical data are reduced, it is found that the data require that the interior of the moon is more like a hollow than a homogeneous sphere." Nobel chemist Dr. Harold Urey suggested the moon’s reduced density is because of large areas inside the moon where is "simply a cavity." MIT’s Dr. Sean C. Solomon wrote, "the Lunar Orbiter experiments vastly improved our knowledge of the moon’s gravitational field . . . indicating the frightening possibility that the moon might be hollow." In Carl Sagan’s treatise, Intelligent Life in the Universe, the famous astronomer stated, "A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object." 10. Moon Echoes: On November 20, 1969, the Apollo 12 crew jettisoned the lunar module ascent stage causing it to crash onto the moon. The LM’s impact (about 40 miles from the Apollo 12 landing site) created an artificial moonquake with startling characteristics—the moon reverberated like a bell for more than an hour. This phenomenon was repeated with Apollo 13 (intentionally commanding the third stage to impact the moon), with even more startling results. Seismic instruments recorded that the reverberations lasted for three hours and twenty minutes and traveled to a depth of twenty-five miles, leading to the conclusion that the moon has an unusually light—or even no—core. 11. Unusual Metals: The moon’s crust is much harder than presumed. Remember the extreme difficulty the astronauts encountered when they tried to drill into the maria? Surprise! The maria is composed primarily illeminite, a mineral containing large amounts of titanium, the same metal used to fabricate the hulls of deep-diving submarines and the skin of the SR-71 "Blackbird". Uranium 236 and neptunium 237 (elements not found in nature on Earth) were discovered in lunar rocks, as were rustproof iron particles. 12. Moon’s Origin: Before the astronauts’ moon rocks conclusively disproved the theory, the moon was believed to have originated when a chunk of Earth broke off eons ago (who knows from where?). Another theory was that the moon was created from leftover "space dust" remaining after the Earth was created. Analysis of the composition of moon rocks disproved this theory also. Another popular theory is that the moon was somehow "captured" by the Earth’s gravitational attraction. But no evidence exists to support this theory. Isaac Asimov, stated, "It’s too big to have been captured by the Earth. The chances of such a capture having been effected and the moon then having taken up nearly circular orbit around our Earth are too small to make such an eventuality credible." 13. Weird Orbit: Our moon is the only moon in the solar system that has a stationary, near-perfect circular orbit. Stranger still, the moon’s center of mass is about 6000 feet closer to the Earth than its geometric center (which should cause wobbling), but the moon’s bulge is on the far side of the moon, away from the Earth. "Something" had to put the moon in orbit with its precise altitude, course, and speed. 14. Moon Diameter: How does one explain the "coincidence" that the moon is just the right distance, coupled with just the right diameter, to completely cover the sun during an eclipse? Again, Isaac Asimov responds, "There is no astronomical reason why the moon and the sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidences, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion." 15. Spaceship Moon: As outrageous as the Moon-Is-a-Spaceship Theory is, all of the above items are resolved if one assumes that the moon is a gigantic extraterrestrial craft, brought here eons ago by intelligent beings. This is the only theory that is supported by all of the data, and there are no data that contradict this theory. Greek authors Aristotle and Plutarch, and Roman authors Apolllonius Rhodius and Ovid all wrote of a group of people called the Proselenes who lived in the central mountainous area of Greece called Arcadia The Proselenes claimed title to this area because their forebears were there "before there was a moon in the heavens." This claim is substantiated by symbols on the wall of the Courtyard of Kalasasaya, near the city of Tiahuanaco, Bolivia, which record that the moon came into orbit around the Earth between 11,500 and 13, 000 years ago, long before recorded history. 1. Ages of Flashes: Aristarchus, Plato, Eratosthenes, Biela, Rabbi Levi, and Posidonius all reported anomalous lights on the moon. NASA, one year before the first lunar landing, reported 570+ lights and flashes were observed on the moon from 1540 to 1967. 2. Operation Moon Blink: NASA’s Operation Moon Blink detected 28 lunar events in a relatively short period of time. 3. Lunar Bridge: On July 29, 1953, John J. O’Neill observed a 12-mile-long bridge straddling the crater Mare Crisium. In August, British astronomer Dr. H.P. Wilkens verified its presence, "It looks artificial. It’s almost incredible that such a thing could have been formed in the first instance, or if it was formed, could have lasted during the ages in which the moon has been in existence. 4. The Shard: The Shard, an obelisk-shaped object that towers 1½ miles from the Ukert area of the moon’s surface, was discovered by Orbiter 3 in 1968. Dr. Bruce Cornet, who studied the amazing photographs, stated, "No known natural process can explain such a structure." 5. The Tower: One of the most curious features ever photographed on the Lunar surface (Lunar Orbiter photograph III-84M) is an amazing spire that rises more than 5 miles from the Sinus Medii region of the lunar surface. 6. The Obelisks: Lunar Orbiter II took several photographs in November 1966 that showed several obelisks, one of which was more than 150 feet tall. ". . . the spires were arranged in precisely the same was as the apices of the three great pyramids." Don Ecker, Long Saga of Lunar Anomalies, UFO magazine, Vol. 10, Nol 2 (March/April 1995), p. 23. Six Mysterious Statuesque Shadows Photographed on the Moon by Orbiter, The Washington Post, Nov. 22, 1966, p. 1. SPACECONSPIRACY: Moon, where are you from? By Yingzhong Lu, selected from The Crown, 499, September 1995 When did the moon first accompany our earth? Perhaps it has been looking at the earth long before human beings appeared on earth. People say that there is a Freezing-Cold Palace on the moon where an ancient beauty named Chang-E lives, along with a white rabbit and a man called Wu Gang, whose daily work is to chop cassia trees. Nonetheless, the American astronauts from the Apollo 11 mission to the moon on July 19, 1969 did not see the Freezing-Cold Palace, nor Lady Chang-E and her rabbit, nor Wu Gang and his cassia trees. Many of us charmed by the legend were somewhat disappointed by the scientific findings. Twenty-six years have passed since the first moon landing, yet human beings are no wiser than before about the moon. On the contrary, scientists are now perplexed by the data gathered by the instruments left on the moon. When we look at the moon at night, we a have familiar yet strange feeling. We can't help but ask, "Dear moon, could you tell us about your true self?" At present, there are three theories to explain how the moon originated. The first one is that the dust and gaseous clouds from the universe formed the moon, just like our earth, 4.6 billion years ago. The second theory is that the moon was thrown off from the earth and the Pacific Ocean is the place from which it came. The third theory believes that the moon was an independent planet that was captured by the earth's gravitational force when passing by, and it has been revolving around the earth ever since. Most scientists initially believed in the first theory, although some favoured the second one. Yet, analysis of the moon soil samples brought back by astronauts indicates that the composition of the moon is different from that of the earth. The earth has more iron and less silicon deposited in it, while the moon is just the opposite. In addition, the earth has very few titanium ores, whereas the moon has many. These findings show that the moon was not separated from the earth. By the same token, the first hypothesis is also shaky. If the moon and earth were formed through the same process, at around the same time, then why are they so different in their composition? Scientists have abandoned the first theory, which leaves only the last theory. If the moon entered the solar system from outer space, it should have flown towards the Sun instead of being held by the earth, because of the sun's much stronger gravitational pull. None of the three hypotheses proposed by orthodox scientists answers all of the questions or holds up to scrutiny. The origin of the moon still remains a mystery. There is plenty of room for people to propose new theories on the origin of the moon. No matter how ridiculous the theories may seem, they should not be lightly labeled nonscientific. The Peculiar Phenomena Between the Sun, Earth, and Moon Let's take a look at and think about some of the unbelievably peculiar astronomical phenomena that occur between the sun, earth and moon. The average distance between the earth and the moon is 380,000 km, and between the sun and the earth is about 150,000,000 km. The latter is about 395 times further than the former. The diameter of the sun is about 1,380,000 km, while that of the moon is 3,400 km; the ratio of the two is again 395 times greater. Both ratios are 395. Could it be a coincidence? What does it mean? Please think about it. The sun is 395 times larger than the moon, yet it is 395 times farther away from the earth than the moon. The two appear the same size when seen from earth because of the distance differences. Is this a natural or artificial phenomenon? Where in the universe can one find three celestial bodies with this kind of coincidence? The two planets shine on the earth in turns, one during the day and the other at night. There is not another example of such phenomena in our solar system. The prestigious scientist, Isaac Asimov, once said that, according to all the data available, the moon in principle should not exist in that position. He also said, "The moon is big enough to result in a solar eclipse, yet small enough to generate corona. Our astronomy just can't explain the coincidence among the coincidences." Is it really a coincidence? Not really, according to some scientists. William R. Sheldon, a scientist, said, "In order to orbit around the earth, a spaceship has to maintain a velocity of 10,800 miles per hour at a height of 100 miles. Similarly, in order for the moon to keep itself in its orbit to balance the earth's gravitational force, it also needs accurate velocity, self-weight, and altitude." The question is: if the current set of conditions is impossible to achieve by nature, why are they this way? It's Too Big to be a Satellite There are several planets in the solar system that have naturally occurring satellites. However, the moon is unnaturally large for a satellite. It is too large in comparison to its parent planet. Let us take a look at the following data. The earth's diameter is 12,756 km; the moon's is 3,467 km, which is about 27% that of the earth's. Mars' diameter is 6,787 km. Mars has two satellites. The larger one has a diameter of 23 km, about 0.34% that of Mars. Jupiter's diameter is 142,800 km. It has 13 satellites. The largest one has a diameter of 5,000 km, which is 3.5% of Jupiter's. Saturn's diameter is 120,000 km. It has 23 satellites. The largest one has a diameter of 4,500 km, which is about 3.75% of Saturn's diameter. None of the satellites has a diameter exceeding 5% of the parent planet's diameter, but the moon's is 27% of the earth's diameter. Isn't the moon unnaturally large by comparison? The data indeed indicates that the moon is extraordinary. The Meteorite Craters Are All Too Shallow Scientists tell us that the craters on the surface of the moon were caused by the impact of meteors or comets. There are also meteorite craters on earth. According to scientific calculations, if a meteorite of several miles in diameter hits the earth or the moon at a speed of 30,000 miles per second, which is equivalent to one million tons of dynamite, the depth of the crater it creates should be four to five times that of its diameter. The meteorite craters on earth prove this to be correct. Yet the craters on the moon are strangely shallow. For example, Gagrin Crater, the deepest one, is only four miles deep, although its diameter is 186 miles. With a diameter of 186 miles, the depth of the crater should be at least 700 miles, instead of 4 miles, which is just 12% of the diameter. This is another scientific impossibility. Why is it so? Astronomers are unable to come up with a perfect explanation and they don't seem to want to either. They know that a perfect explanation would overturn established theories. The only explanation is that the moon's crust is composed of a very hard substance four miles beneath the surface. The meteorites have failed to penetrate this hard layer. Then, what is the very hard substance? Metals Whose Existence is Impossible It is not strange that the moon craters have a great deal of lava. What is strange is that the lava contains rich metal elements such as titanium, chromium, yttrium, etc., which are rarely found on earth. Those metals are all very hard and resistant to both high temperatures and corrosion. Scientists estimate that it requires 2000-3000( C to melt these metals. But the moon has been a dead and cold planet without volcanic activity for three billion years. How did the moon generate so many kinds of metals that require such high temperatures to melt? Moreover, analysis of the 380 kg of moon soil samples brought back by astronauts shows that there is pure iron and pure titanium. Such pure metal deposits just aren't found under natural conditions. What do the unexplainable facts tell us? They have undoubtedly demonstrated that these metal elements were not formed under natural conditions, but were extracted. Then the questions is by whom and when? The Side that Can't Be Seen from the Earth It is always the same side of the moon that faces the earth. Man did not see the opposite side until the spaceship landed there and photographed it. Astronomers had always thought that the backside should be similar to the front with many meteorite craters and lava seas. But the photographs showed a much different scene. The backside of the moon is very bumpy. Most are small craters and mountain ranges with very few lava seas. Scientists are unable to explain the differences. In theory, the probability of being hit by meteorites should be the same for both sides of the moon if it was a naturally formed planet. Why is there a difference? Why is it always the same side of the moon that faces the earth? The explanation from the scientists is that the moon rotates around its own axis with a velocity of 16.56 km per hour, and it also revolves around the earth at exactly the same speed. Thus the same side always faces the earth. This phenomenon does not exist for any other planet and its satellites in our solar system-only for our earth and moon. Is it another coincidence along with the other coincidences? Is there an explanation other than coincidence? Strange Phenomena in the Past Hundreds of Years For the last 300 hundred years, astronomers have observed many unexplainable phenomena about the moon. Casini discovered a cluster of clouds over the moon in 1671. In April 1786, William Herser, the father of modern astronomy, observed the signs of volcanic eruptions on the moon, although scientists believe that there has not been any volcanic activity on the moon for 3 billion years. Then, what was observed that looked like volcanic eruptions? In 1843, German astronomer John Schicoto, who made hundreds of maps of the moon, found that the Leany Crater, with an original diameter of several kilometers, was becoming smaller. Today, the Leany Crater is only a tiny spot with white sediment surrounding it. Scientists do not know why. On April 24, 1882, scientists discovered that there were unidentified objects moving on the surface in the Aristocrat's Zone. On October 19, 1945, the Darwin Wall on the surface of the moon was observed to have three shiny points on it. On the evening of July 6, 1954, the head of the Minnesota Observatory and his assistants saw a dark line inside the Picallomy Crater, which shortly disappeared. On September 8, 1955, lightning appeared twice along the edge of the Ross Crater. Again on February 9, 1956, Dr. Toyota, Meiji University, Japan, saw several dark objects that seemed to have formed the shape of letters DYAX and JWA. On February 4, 1966, a Russian unmanned space-vehicle, Moon Goddess 9, landed on the Rain Sea and photographed two rows of pyramid-like structures that were equidistant from each other. Dr. Van Sunder stated, "They could strongly reflect the sunlight, pretty much like the marks on runways." Calculated from the length of the shadows, the structures are about as high as a fifteen-story building. Dr. Van Sunder said, "There were no highlands nearby from which the rocks would have rolled over to the current positions to form the geometrical shapes." Additionally, Moon Goddess 9 also photographed a mysterious cave on the edge of the Stormy Sea. Moon research expert Dr. Wilkins believes that these circular caves go directly to the center of the moon. Wilkins himself once discovered a gigantic cave at Casiny Crater A. On November 20, 1966, American Orbit 2 Exploration Spaceship photographed several pyramid-like structures from 46 km above the Tranquility Sea. Scientists estimated that the pyramids are 15 to 25 metres high and that they are also geometrically positioned. The structures are lighter in colour than the rocks and soil around them and they are obviously not natural objects. On September 11, 1967, the Montelow Team of astronomers discovered a "black cloud with purple borders" over the Tranquility Sea. The strange phenomena were not observed by laypeople, but by astronomers and spaceship probes. This means that the moon does have many mysteries unknown to human beings. UFO over the Moon On November 24, 1968, Apollo 8, while investigating future landing spots, encountered a colossal floating object that occupied several square miles. When Apollo 8 came back to the same spot from its orbital lap around the moon, the object was no longer there. What was it? No one knows. Apollo 10, while at 50,000 feet above the moon, was approached by an unidentified flying object. This encounter was documented on film. On July 19, 1969, Apollo 11 carried three astronauts to the moon who later became the first men on the moon. En route to the moon, the astronauts saw an unusual object in front of them. Viewing at a distance of about 6,000 miles, they initially thought that it must be the rocket propeller from the Apollo 4. Looking through binoculars, they found that the object was L-shaped. "It looked like an opened briefcase," said Armstrong. Looking further through a sextant, they found the object looked like a cylinder. Another astronaut, Aldrin, said, "We also saw several smaller objects passing by, causing turbulence to our ship, then we saw this brighter object flying by." On July 21, when Aldrin entered the Landing Capsule for final check-up, he suddenly saw two floating objects. One of them was bigger and brighter, flying at high speed in parallel to the spaceship's front, which shortly disappeared. It reemerged a few seconds later. At that moment the two objects shot out two light beams that joined together. Then they suddenly separated from each other, ascended rapidly and disappeared. When the astronauts were about to land on the moon, they heard the voice from Control Center, "Control Center calling Apollo 11, what are they out there?" Apollo 11 answered, "These babes are humongous, Sir . . . a lot of them . . .Oh, my God, you won't believe it. Let me tell you there are other spaceships there . . . by the edge of the circular craters, and they are well positioned . . . and they are watching us from the moon . . .." Russian scientist Dr. Arched said, "According to our intercepted signals, the encounter with floating objects as the Apollo 11 landed was immediately reported." On November 20, 1969, astronauts Conrad and Brian of Apollo 12 observed floating objects when they landed on the moon. Astronauts landing on the moon from Apollo 15 in August 1971, Apollo 16 in April 1972, and Apollo 17 in December 1972 also encountered the floating objects. Gary, a scientist, once said, "Almost all the astronauts have seen some unidentified flying objects." Edwards, the sixth astronaut to land on the moon, said, "The only question is where they came from." John Younger, the ninth astronaut on the moon, said, "If you don't believe it, it is like you don't believe in a sure thing." In 1979, former NASA Director of Communication Molly Chertlin stated that "encountering the floating objects" is very common. She went on, "All the spaceships have been followed by some floating objects either at a distance or very closely. Whenever it happens, the astronauts would contact our mission center." Years later, Armstrong revealed, "It is incredible . . . We were all warned that there are for sure cities or spaceships on the moon . . . I can only say that their spaceships are much superior and they are huge . . .." Thousands of the lunar mystical phenomena, such as the mysterious lightning, white and black clouds, structures, floating objects and so on, are all facts observed by astronomers and scientists. They are yet to be explained as to what they are. The Moon is a Hollow Spaceship In 1970, Russian scientists Alexander Scherbakov and Mihkai Vasin proposed a shocking Spaceship Moon hypothesis to explain the origin of the moon. They believe that the moon is in fact not a natural satellite of the earth, but a spaceship created by intelligent beings that modified and reshaped a planet. There are a lot documents regarding their civilization stored inside the moon, which was intentionally placed above the earth. All of the discoveries of the moon are in fact the outstanding work of the intelligent beings that live inside of it. Of course, the scientific community is scornful of the theory, because they have not captured any ET yet. Nonetheless, it is undeniable that the moon has been shown to be hollow by data gathered so far. What perplexes scientists the most is the data gathered from the instruments left on the moon which measure the quake activities of the moon's crust. The data indicates that the quake waves spread from the epicenter along the surface of the moon only, but not into the center of the moon. This shows that the moon is hollow and it is nothing but a crust. If it was a solid planet, the quake waves should also propagate toward the center. How could they only go along the surface? Reconstruct New Theories About the Moon Let's construct a new theory about the moon. It is hollow and has two layers of crust. The outer crust consists of rocks and mineral ores. Meteorites can only hit through this crust. The known craters are no deeper than four miles. Thus, this outer crust is at most five miles thick. The inner crust is a hard, artificial alloy shell of unknown thickness-probably several miles. Its metal elements include iron, titanium, chromium, and others that resist high temperatures, high pressure and corrosion. It is an alloy unknown on earth. The moonquake data indicates that moonquake waves propagate along the moon's surface but not towards its center. This means that the moon only has two layers of crust. Thus the moon must be artificial, rather than naturally formed. Intelligent beings must have conducted accurate calculations to transport the moon from their star system to the solar system and to position it where it is in order to provide light to the earth at night. In conclusion, none of the three traditional theories of the origin of the moon is correct. The beings that constructed the moon allow only one side of the moon to face the earth because there are many observation devices on the earth. They themselves live inside the moon closer to the back. Because the surface temperature of the moon varies from 127( C at noon to -183( C at night, the inhabitants live inside the moon. The moon-making beings have invented flying saucers and they often fly out to do research, maintain their surface devices, or to watch the earthlings' activities. They are thus sometimes seen by astronauts from earth or observed by telescopes on earth. We don't yet know what kind of aliens they are or how long they have been there. Perhaps before long, earthlings will find out the truth about the moon. We have constructed this theory to explain the origin and structure of the moon by using the lunar phenomena that cannot be explained by traditional science. This theory perfectly solves each and every mystery surrounding the moon. Who would argue that our approach is non-scientific?
