The book “Dark Moon: Apollo and the Whistle Blowers” and the AULIS web site are excellent sources of information on the doubtful authenticity of the historical records presented to the public of the Apollo moon missions. I first read this book about ten years ago. My father worked for NASA for 25 years, and after that I worked for them for 25 years. When I started as a contractor in April of 1989 shortly before the Space Exploration Initiative (SEI) of 1989 under the direction of the National Space Council (NSC) I was excited as a chemical engineer to be working on life support systems for future long duration missions, such as would be required for a manned mission to Mars, establishing a permanent base on the Moon, or the long duration mission of operating a manned space station. I got to work on some very interesting and technically satisfying things at NASA. I never needed to get a security clearance while at NASA, beyond whatever ordinary background check they do on employees. When I started as a federal employee in 1990 I did have to take an oath of loyalty to the U.S. Constitution.
I started waking up to government and media lies about 9/11 in January 2004. So I really started becoming a serious student of conspiracy theories at that point. This is like opening Pandora’s Box. Eventually I felt compelled to look into the moon landing hoax. I read this book and also watched a video with a lot of the same information by the same authors called “What Happened On the Moon? An Investigation Into Apollo.” I watched Bart Sibrel’s videos, all four of them. I read Bill Kaysing’s work and anything else I could find on the internet. I concluded that most if not all of what was presented to the public documenting the moon landings had been faked. Whether this means man has never set foot on the moon I do not know. I would like to think that we have been there, but I doubt it. The web site for this book (AULIS) has some recent articles that explain the tremendous problems NASA has been facing moving human space exploration forward, which suggests that man has likely never been beyond low earth orbit. One such recent article posted there is “The Apollo Myth: A Hindrance to Human Space Exploration” by Phil Kouts PhD. Also, posted on the AULIS web site for many years now is a quote from Dr. James Fetzer saying, “Jack White's studies of anomalies in the Apollo space program raise the disturbing question, if man went to the Moon, then why was it necessary to fake so many photos? This parallels his earlier work on JFK, which raised a similar question about alleged assassin Lee Oswald, namely, if he really shot JFK, then why was it necessary to fake evidence to frame a guilty man?”
I have been drawn back to this subject matter recently because there is a flat earth movement (The Great Flattening) gaining traction over the last 2 to 3 years which claims that the earth is flat according to a literal interpretation of God’s word the Bible, that there is no such thing as space and that NASA has been faking the entire space program (including the faked moon missions) since its inception, which is a significant part of Satan’s scientific deceptions that are hiding the truth of God from the human race. The popular flat earther DVD “Scientism Exposed” which currently can be viewed for free on Youtube clearly presents this viewpoint. What is going on here with this flat earth movement? Is our modern civilization reaping what it has sown with all of its many lies over so long? Have most people who have taken the red pill been vaccinated against accepting the many lies of the government and media which hide real conspiracies so that they are much less likely to fall for future lies? But have some over reacted to the vaccine where they are identifying conspiracies and lies where they do not exist? It is kind of like an auto immune disease. Civilization is attacking and eating itself. The baby is getting thrown out with the bath water by many. I think it is fairly easy to show that the flat earth theory does not fit reality and I am continuing to do more work in this area, although many are far ahead of me in this regard. Interestingly, there was a well developed and historically documented flat earth movement well over 100 years ago that was strikingly similar to what we have today. And today’s movement is relying heavily upon the writings from the old movement and voluminously expanding upon them. It was a money making scheme for some then, and it appears to be a money making scheme for many today as well. History is repeating itself. A good book for this historical perspective is “Flat Earth: The History of an Infamous Idea” by Christine Garwood, which first came out in 2007 long before this recent resurrection of the flat earth movement. (In my Amazon review of her book I also included a simple refutation of flat earth theory, soundly roundly flat earth debunked.)
So this is my take on NASA. Yes I learned many years ago that NASA stands for Never A Straight Answer or Numerous Anomalies and Scams Allowed, and once I awoke to the Apollo mission fakery I ended up meeting some fellow NASA employees who had come to the same conclusion. But this is what I think and hope is the case. From my perspective, NASA has done a hell of a lot of research and work that has benefitted humanity in many ways. Flat earthers are able to fly safely and efficiently to their conferences because of work NASA has done. The vast majority of NASA employees are good dedicated people who do good honest work that is for the most part openly shared. Any conspiracies of deception that NASA has been involved in have been orchestrated at the highest levels way beyond the pay grade of the vast majority of ordinary NASA employees like my father and I were.
But here’s some history
Space Exploration Initiative (SEI) of 1989, from Wikipedia
On July 20, 1989, the 20th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing, George H. W. Bush — then President of the United States — announced plans for what came to be known as the Space Exploration Initiative (SEI).[1] In a speech on the steps of the National Air and Space Museum he described plans calling for constructing Space Station Freedom, sending humans back to the Moon "to stay" and ultimately sending astronauts to explore Mars. He proposed not a 10-year Apollo-style plan, but a long-range continuing commitment based on the three above elements, ending with “a journey into tomorrow – a journey to another planet – a manned mission to Mars.” The President noted it was humanity’s destiny to explore, and America’s destiny to lead. He asked Vice President Dan Quayle to lead the National Space Council in determining what was needed to carry out these missions in terms of money, manpower and technology.
And 28 years later (two days ago)
From space.com October 5, 2017
First meeting of the newly reinstated National Space Council (NSC)
"We will return American astronauts to the moon, not only to leave behind footprints and flags, but [also] to build the foundation we need to send Americans to Mars and beyond," Pence said today (Oct 5) at the first meeting of the newly reinstated National Space Council (NSC). "The moon will be a stepping stone, a training ground, a venue to strengthen our commercial and international partnerships as we refocus America's space program toward human space exploration," Pence added.
Is it any wonder we have people claiming that the earth is flat and that NASA is a complete fake and joke?
NASA, let’s admit we’ve not yet been there, and then do what is necessary to go there for the first time. Not as Vice President Pence said two days ago, which maintains the deception, “We will return American astronauts to the moon.”

Good book to have on your collection.

Pretty good condition, I'll give 4 stars because the advertising was wrong as a hardcover, but for the price I can't complain.
