I think it's crap since the last Apollo mission was 17, and THERE IS NO WAY TO HIDE THE LAUNCH OF A SATURN V and send a mission to the moon without being detected. NONE!<br />Never mind Apollo 18 and 19 before it.<br /><br />MW <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

Also think about the logistics of making the LV, apparently in secret. Getting all the parts, assembling all the vehicles, testing them and then stacking them. Where did this all happen ? With what personnel and $$s ? And the Russians were along for the ride as well .... tends to strain the credulity factor. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>-----------------------------------------------------</p><p><font color="#ff0000">Ask not what your Forum Software can do do on you,</font></p><p><font color="#ff0000">Ask it to, please for the love of all that's Holy, <strong>STOP</strong> !</font></p> </div>

First of all, I think it has very little support and nothing to back up the claims. BTW, are there vids? I couldn't find any.<br /><br />But, let's see.. Launching a Saturn V.. the most powerful launch vehicle ever created... and nobody knows about it? Errm.. that's a little farfetched.<br /><br />You see, for the sake of argument, if I was the "gubberment" or head of some secret Illuminati sect, I'd have just done all this on a normal mission but transmitted taped data gathered, clandestinely, during a previous Moon mission. No need to hide the biggest darn "Look at me!" object we've ever built or cover up the most powerful reaction force (IIRC) ever harnessed to propel a manned object.<br /><br />IMO - It's a pretty unlikely story.. at best. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="1">I put on my robe and wizard hat...</font> </div>

pierround,<br />You have been challenged by MeteorWayne to provide backup for the claim you made regarding a “hollow moonâ€. That is his right according to the Uplink Polices & Guidelines, specifically UPG8 Therefore you must either provide credible backup for your claim or retract it. This is not optional. Please read UPG8 and comply with the requirements provided there.<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><font size="1" color="#808080">Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men, the Shadow knows. </font></p> </div>

Logging in briefly while in transit.....<br /><br />The reason nothing comparable happens when objects strike the Earth is that it makes much more energy to make the Earth ring than it does the Moon. Large Earthquakes do cause the Earth to ring, sometimes for many months, as happened after the Boxing Day earthquake a few years back. <br /><br />Jon <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Whether we become a multi-planet species with unlimited horizons, or are forever confined to Earth will be decided in the twenty-first century amid the vast plains, rugged canyons and lofty mountains of Mars</em>  Arthur Clarke</p> </div>

You know I come in here and it won't let me in so I go away to other things.<br /><br /><br />This I think is the reason.<br />something about that first pages adds.<br /><br />[Make Your Donation Today<br />Help Rebuild Lives & Communities in Hurricane Affected States.<br />www.BushClintonKatrinaFund.org]<br /><br />This stops me and doesn't bring up the list in the main index.<br /><br />And it pisses me off.<br />So I leave.<br />It took me 6 tries to get in.<br />It's like it wants me to go to the link.... I go to the link and come back and it still won’t let me in?<br /><br />I can go any were else but here. <br /><br />Pierround blows off some steam and walks away and then posts finally.<br />

<i>"The moon has only 60% of the density of Earth. The improbable fact that an equal amount of earth material seemed to weigh almost twice as much as moon matter mystified everyone.

(4)</i><br /><br />The Earth’s mean density is 5.5, the Moon’s 3.4, 61.8% of Earth’s. This is not a mystery, it is an observation. No scientist with any knowledge of the lunar data would in 1975 (the date of your reference) have sad that this indicated that the Moon was hollow. It can be very easily explained by a somewhat smaller core and less gravitational compression of the matter that makes up the Moon. A density of 3.4 is still denser than most rocks. Furthermore by 1975 there was abundant information on lunar moment of inertia and direct seismic measurements of the lunar interior that showed it had a solid core.<br /><br /><i>Then there's a report in the July 1962 issue of Astronautics by Dr. Gordon McDonald, a leading scientist at the Nation Aeronautics and Space Administration in which he states that "according to an analysis of the moon's motion, it appears that the moon is hollow: if the astronomical data are reduced, it is found that the data require that the interior of the moon is less dense than the outer parts.

What did Gordon MacDonald actually say as opposed to what he is quoted as saying? In addition, anything said about the Moon’s interior in 1962 was completely superceded by direct measurements from manned and unmanned missions in orbit and on the surface. I think I can find at least one paper by MacDonald at the library tomorrow. However, MacDonald’s known advocacy of lunar accretion in earth orbit is inconsistent with claiming it was <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Whether we become a multi-planet species with unlimited horizons, or are forever confined to Earth will be decided in the twenty-first century amid the vast plains, rugged canyons and lofty mountains of Mars</em>  Arthur Clarke</p> </div>

<i>During an overcast day you wouldn't be able to tell for sure what was going up trust me.</i><br /><br />Why should we trust you? You have not answered questions, you have dodged issues, you have shown very limited understanding of basic science and technology.<br /><br />An Apollo mission was not something that could be hidden by a cloudy day. It's construction, preparation, launch and conduct required thousands of people. the launch took place from a very public part of the coast and, even on a cloudy day, would have been visible and audible for many tens of km. The spacecraft was detectable in Earth orbit and in transit by amateur and professional satellite trackers. A clandestine Apollo launch was impossible.<br /><br />Jon <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Whether we become a multi-planet species with unlimited horizons, or are forever confined to Earth will be decided in the twenty-first century amid the vast plains, rugged canyons and lofty mountains of Mars</em>  Arthur Clarke</p> </div>

A week ago I asked the Zen and Pierre to explain the following:<br /><br /><i>Zen - why he still believes Hoagland after such palpable nonsense about 50 km towers that somehow escaped observation for 400 years and can be seen only in dodgy reproductions of a single image from Zond 3. <br /><br />Pierre - why do lunar blocks look like construction material and why lack of data can only be interpreted as editing rather than.... lack of data.</i><br /><br />Neither participant has answered either question. Instead they have gone off on other topics.

<i>If you take into consideration that maybe the asteroid belt was once a planet that disintegrated...</i><br /><br />Olbers proposed this in the early 19th century. However the chemistry of asteroids precludes a single origin. They are the remanants of many dwarf planets that together massed much less than even the Moon.<br /><br /><i>...killing off the Mars ecosystem or ecology.</i><br /><br />We don't know whether mars every had an ecology, and if it did whether it was killed off and, if so, by what.<br /><br /><i>If they do we will have to reconsider the possibility of the Nibiru legends as having some basis in the historical references made by the Sumerians.</i><br /><br />Whatever the legends refer to it would not have been a nonexistant planet.

Aren't most planets and moons hollow to some extent? I mean, they do at least have cavities don't they?<br />I agree that it would take a more massive hit to make the Earth ring, seems only natural really.

Welcome Coolkat, to SDC! I hope you look round and enjoy our community. There are a few technical problems at the moment, but there are some great discussions here on many topics.<br /><br />To answer your question, yes, all bodies are hollow to some extent, in the sense they have cavities uch as caves. However, hollow earth supporters do not use the word in this sense. They think that the earth (and other planets) are in fact a hollow shell, with a whole new world inside. There is not a shred of evidence for it and it goes against everything we do know about the interior of nthe Earth, Moon, and planets. <br /><br />Hope this helps.<br /><br />Jon <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Whether we become a multi-planet species with unlimited horizons, or are forever confined to Earth will be decided in the twenty-first century amid the vast plains, rugged canyons and lofty mountains of Mars</em>  Arthur Clarke</p> </div>

Jon. The eminent scientist Jules Verne participated in a journey to the center of the Earth. He documented the entire adventure. The Earth is hollow with an entire separate world inside, complete with plants, animals and people.

I am not following your logic.<br /><br />Obviously, an earthquake is a major energy-releasing event. And "objects" stiking the Earth, usually do so at about 50,000 mph (or whatever the rediculous velocity meteors impact at). If the NASA landing vehicle could elicit this seismic reaction, simply falling back to the lunar surface, Jon, are you suggesting something <i>as simple</i> could do this to the Earth?<br /><br />What size object, simply dropped to Earth, do you believe would be needed for eliciting a similar length of seismic "ring" here on Earth?<br /><br /><i>"You have been challenged to provide backup for the claim you made.
