So many things about Apollo are unraveling now – underpowered rockets, no protection against micrometeorites or meteorites, photographic chicanery, astronauts who seemed withdrawn on return, plus (most important to me) the idea that in this complicated engineering undertaking, everything went right the very first time.
I like to cook, to experiment with new recipes, and without fail with even something so simple, I screw up the first try. I overlook something, leaving something out, over or undercook – it usually takes a few tries to get it right. I cannot imagine that NASA, which could not land the lunar module on Earth, nonetheless gave it a first try on the Moon! With two astronauts aboard, no less.
OK, did not happen, could not have happened. Some other game was afoot.
Then there is the matter of radiation.I have read an article by Mary Bennett entitled Orion, the Van Allen Belts & Space Radiation Challenges. I will start with a couple of quotes not from her article, but in the same general area.
“NASA’s focus now is on sending humans beyond low-Earth orbit to Mars… We are trying to develop the technologies to get there, it is actually a huge technological challenge. There are a couple of really big issues. For one thing – Radiation. Once you get outside the Earth’s magnetic field we are going to be exposing the astronauts to not just radiation coming from the Sun, but also to cosmic radiation. That’s a higher dose than we think humans right now should really get.”
– Dr Ellen Stofan, Chief Scientist, NASA, and principal advisor
to NASA Administrator – BBC Newsnight interview, November 2014
“Radiation surely must be the biggest showstopper preventing mankind’s exploration of the Universe.”
– Professor Clive Dyer, MA (Cantab.), PhD (Lond.), DIC., June 1997
NASA has placed itself in the awkward position of having to defend the indefensible. Worse than that, so much “science” that has come from Apollo is bogus. The rocks they brought back were from this planet, and one had traces of water on it. From this we have the “Wet Moon” theory, the idea that people can not only go there, but will be supplied with water. That’s dangerously bad science.
The following is from the article linked above:
“… I began to wonder if that other mythological solar god Apollo, had anything to do with the coyness of NASA, because according to the historical record, the only manned flights that have experienced space beyond LEO are the Apollo missions, of which … SRAG [Space Radiation Analysis Group] in 1993 had this to say:
“Apollo missions were fortunate to avoid random solar proton events through short mission duration… Future missions will involve longer stays, making simple avoidance less practical.”
One wonders how ‘simple avoidance’ can actually work, when flying a fixed orbit to the Moon over a period of say eight days for Apollo 11. From this statement, the secret recipe for Apollo success apparently consisted of a large dollop of good fortune and a smidge of shielding, allied with a quick dash of anything from 6 to 12.5 days, and served with a sauce of totally unpredictable solar activity. Unless of course, ‘simple avoidance’ means very simply not leaving Earth’s magnetosphere at all. Not according to NASA, for again the agency assures us that Apollo is the exception to the rule:
“Except for the Apollo missions to the Moon, NASA’s manned spaceflight missions have taken place within the cocoon of the Earth’s magnetosphere. As NASA ponders the feasibility of sending manned spaceflight missions back to the Moon or to other planets, radiation protection for crew members remains one of the key technological issues which must be resolved.”Which clearly implies that this issue had not been resolved for the Apollo program.”
Imagine the absurdity of the proposition that astronauts were place in deadly danger, and NASA’s justification was that everything might just go OK. That is preposterous.
Astronauts would be exposed to three types of radiation:
•Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR): GCRs consist of highly energetic nuclei of atoms from hydrogen to uranium and are present to some degree throughout the heliosphere regardless of orbit, and mass, or geomagnetic shielding. Translation: unstoppable, the quantity present, or occupancy dictating the level of danger for the spacecraft and its astronauts.
• Solar Particle Events (SPE): SPEs consist primarily of protons of varying spectral characteristics (10s of MeV [106 (1,000,000) electron volts] to a few GeV [109 (1,000,000,000) electron volts]) and are usually highly-attenuated by mass and adequate geomagnetic shielding. Translation: these are most often, but not always, reduced in intensity but not entirely stopped.
• Trapped Particles: Trapped particles consist of lower-energy electrons (maximum energy on the order of 10 MeV) and protons (maximum energy on the order of hundreds of MeV). They are a concern only in orbits around bodies with significant planetary magnetic fields, such as Earth. Translation: In the case of Earth, the Van Allen belts have to be safely traversed if going beyond LEO to the Moon, Mars or elsewhere.
NASA, being NASA, merely writes past Apollo as if no reference to that program is necessary, because, you know, everything worked according to plan. NASA is planning a mission to Mars, 1,200 times further, a seven-month voyage each way. The entire trip will swim in radiation
Again, from Mary Bennett:
Today then, rather than the cavalier attitude expressed in the US during Apollo, radiation exposure to astronauts both in LEO and beyond is now a major concern, but note that despite talk of NASA projects concerning near-Earth asteroids and lunar lagrange point 1, this next statement from Dr Ellen Stofan, Chief Scientist, NASA, and principal advisor to the NASA Administrator, fulfills that ‘don’t mention the Moon’ embargo.
[Quotation repeated from above:] NASA’s focus now is on sending humans beyond low-Earth orbit to Mars. We are trying to develop the technologies to get there, it is actually a huge technological challenge. There are a couple of really big issues. For one thing – Radiation. Once you get outside the Earth’s magnetic field we are going to be exposing the astronauts to not just radiation coming from the Sun, but also to cosmic radiation. That’s a higher dose than we think humans right now should really get.” [emphasis added].This BIRD* Radiation Detector report seemingly confirms that the dosimetry radiation data for the manned Apollo lunar flights was collected while remaining in LEO. Whether deliberately or unwittingly, NASA’s own data has blown apart the notion that a manned Apollo crew ever travelled to the Moon.”…
So if it is now considered that human beings ‘right now’ cannot cope – then nor could they ‘back then’ – and nor could NASA risk any Apollo astronauts becoming ill or dying either during or after the missions.
My bet, NASA faked Apollo at a time when a large number of people were not fooled by the hoax, those people less susceptible (I have read) mostly gays and blacks. Well, gays and black are no longer as alienated as they were then so I imagine they can be easily fooled these days too. NASA is going to do it again.
OK, fine. I just hope they take Matt Damon, maybe leave him there.

I think you are a talented writer, but there is a smoking gun that invalidates your whole theory. NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) captured the sharpest images ever taken from space of the Apollo 12, 14 and 17 landing sites. here is the site, https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LRO/news/apollo-sites.html
As the satellite was dropped into a lower orbit fuzzy images became quite sharp.
There are also the photos of a very tired Neil Armstrong in the lander. This shows the results of walking on the moon, the fatigue we can only imagine.
The article is well written, and very informative, but sadly is untrue sir.
See for yourself, Flat Earthers should also view the photos taken by these brave heroes that risked EVERYTHING! Some didn’t even reach lift off.

While not discounting harms at high levels you might gain from followingEdward Calabrese’s documented exposure of a bent ‘genetic’ basis for setting overriding regulatory capture. Calabrese doesn’t see or say this summary – but as a scientist who is unwilling to knowingly lie he did the work.
the first experiments on fruit flies had the weaker dose cohort exposed to 100 million times background radiation. The linear no threshhold risk model set there was protected against all evidences since to run the basis of a zero tolerance mindset.
You can likely get a gist from any of his intervioews but the definitive set is 21 sessions. I note You tube only gives the earlier sessions – leaving out all the most damming evidences that the earlier sessions provide background for.
As well as psyops of expansion toward a globalist mindset, is that of establishing terror symbols by which to fence the herd immunity to truths they as yet don’t want to see. (Else they look on and move past the fences)
Note that undoing fears may not appeal to those who feed on hating to be controlled – ie some love to hate as if truth.

“Note that undoing fears may not appeal to those who feed on hating to be controlled – ie some love to hate as if truth.”
I really love this insight. And the controllers exploit that love of people’s hatred for being controlled in order to keep those people under their control in so many ways, don’t they? Limited hangouts, for one. But even those who don’t see through the matrix are controlled by their hatred of people they think are trying to control them–the gays and their agenda, the Jews, the Right, the Left, the QAnon “insurrectionists” and that cartoon caricature of an evil despot, Trump. The hatred of control that we think others have or are trying to gain over us becomes a delusional character-defining virtue that keeps us trapped.

SCOTTRC, you could not have described the current state of reality in better terms. Well said! The big question we’ve all been trying to answer: who is the man behind the curtain? Media is the culprit. When 99% of people were illiterate in the Medieval Ages, Monarch ruled the herd with brute force, and the Papacy ruled their minds with fear of God’s eternal wrath and damnation. After the Enlightenment that paradigm changed as greater numbers became literate after the invention of the printing press. It created a greater chance a few freethinkers could create general unrest and widespread anarchy. Hence the birth of Protestantism. It was the first grand achievement of controlled opposition on a massive scale. It split the iron-clad grip with which the Papacy clenched the human mind and soul. No coincidence the Holy Roman See prohibited membership of Freemasonry in 1738. No coincidence either that 38 years later in 1776 Freemasons decreed the separation of church and state. America is not a Christian nation, it was, is and shall ever be a Freemasonic nation. Once one understands that Freemasonry is an ancient artifact of Babylonian sun cults, one can understand much of the symbolism our brains have beaten over the head with for time immemorial, i.e the Golden Arches, Royal Dutch Shell, etc. These are modern iterations of ancient symbols. Today the control centers are media and all forms. Media can convince the masses that what is false is real. That false reality becomes the true reality of the masses. The few of us who meet here in forums pose no threat to “the controllers.” We never have, nor ever will we. Any narrative counter to the mainstream false narrative is rejected with ridicule and ostracism. No one wants to hear that radio, television, movies, music, magazines, newspapers, books, billboards, advertisements, et al. are all placed before our eyes and ears to convince our brains what is false is true and what is true is false. I’ve always been a skeptic since my early teen years. Skeptically of teachers, professors, friends, relatives, television, music, etc. I’ve always believed in the power of truly free thought. Being told something by someone and judiciously considering its degree or importance against my own personal understanding of life in the universe. Do I get it right each time? Absolutely not. But free thought at least gives the intellect a chance to filter out falsehood with increasing power as more is learned about the world and its rulers. I did not simply come to the knowledge that Freemasons are the man behind the curtain (L. Frank Baum was a Freemason, oddly enough), but through a skepticism and free thought. I have my whole life constantly challenged anything I’ve been told or taught with brutal self-honesty. I’ve gone down many, many, many roads. Most of them dead ends, and rightfully so. But Freemasonry is no dead end. In fact, it extends forever into the most distant and dusty records of time immemorial. It’s signs and symbols have been a part of human history forever. Once you learn its language–because that’s what Freemasonry essentially is (a secret language written in signs and symbols and ancient passwords)–you will only get the tiniest glimpse of the man behind the curtain. Only initiates of the oldest orders (not your Blue Lodge simpletons in a thousand local towns across the country) have seen that man. But once you can reconcile that these vastly disparate personalities all fall under the Freemasonic order, that shadowy man behind the curtain begins to take shape: Mozart, Sir Walter Scott, Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Walt Disney, L. Frank Baum, Edwin Buzz Aldrin, John Glenn, Richard Pryor, Shaquille O’Neal, et. al.

There are many famous people, and Presidents that we can’t connect to Freemasonry, unless their fathers or grandfathers were masons and just opened doors for the kids via nepotism. But I assume one would have to participate even for a little while when younger, hence Demolay, Eastern Star, Job’s Daughters, and Rainbow Girls. The lodges do not conceal their membership lists, and usually boast about their members that become famous and successful. So obviously there are other organizations that work behind the curtains, with no connections to Freemasonry.
