MOONBASE: ARE THERE ALIENS ON THE MOON?
BY JON KING
THE LUNA 13 PHOTOGRAPHS
This staggering photograph, which appears to show an axle and wheels abandoned on the moon's surface, was taken by the Luna 13 spacecraft following a successful Soviet moon landing on December 24th, 1966.
It was the second 'soft landing' the Soviets had achieved, but only the first in the Sea of Clouds, where this photograph was taken.
"So what is the strange object lying abandoned on the moon's surface? Where did it come from? Who left it there?"
Two other Soviet spacecraft, Luna 2 and Luna 5, had impacted the moon at the Sea of Clouds prior to the Luna 13 landing, and speculation is that the 'axle and wheels' might have belonged to one of these craft. But there is a problem with this theory.
Luna 2 is known to have impacted the moon at Latitude 29.10 N, 100s of miles from the site of the above photograph, while the precise details of Luna 5's crash site remain unknown.
True, we do know Luna 5 came to grief somewhere in the Sea of Clouds, and could theoretically therefore account for the object in the photograph.
"But we must also take into account that the Sea of Clouds covers an area twice the size of Mexico, and that the chances of Luna 13 landing within 100 miles of Luna's wreckage, never mind right on top of it, are so slight as to be virtually nil."
For the record, none of America's early Ranger or Surveyor spacecraft crashed in the region either, which leaves the source of the object, for now at any rate, something of a mystery.
So are we looking at a genuine alien artefact? The answer has to be probably not, although it must also be acknowledged that the alternative explanation is equally unlikely. If anyone thinks they might know what it is, by the way, please feel free to leave your comments below or post your thoughts in the forum.
One thing we can be sure of, of course, is that the emergence of this photograph will resuscitate the debate about alien bases and the moon.
Indeed, whatever your take on the Luna 13 photographs - MORE HERE - there are those who claim evidence of alien structures and bases on the moon anyway - perhaps even that aliens warned NASA off the moon in the 1960s and that this was the reason the Apollo program was prematurely ended.
I for one have always considered this idea more than a little intriguing. So in an attempt to prompt debate and stir up opinion on the matter, I figured this a timely moment to take another look at the evidence.

NASA, ALIENS AND UFOS
"All Apollo and Gemini flights were followed, both at a distance and sometimes also quite closely, by space vehicles of extraterrestrial origin^aEUR"flying saucers, or UFOs, if you want to call them by that name. Every time it occurred the astronauts informed Mission Control, who then ordered absolute silence."
So said former NASA technician, Maurice Chatelain (left) who purportedly built the communications and data-processing systems for the Apollo Moon Missions. Chatelain claimed he was present at Mission Control for all Gemini and Apollo space flights during the 1960s and early 70s, and that all of these flights were monitored by aliens.
And Chatelain is not the only one to have blown the whistle on NASA. Former contractee Donna Hare says she has seen NASA PHOTOGRAPHS DEPICTING UFOS and that her colleague's job was to airbrush the alien craft out of the photos.
Former Lockheed Martin aerospace engineer, John Schuessler, who worked at NASA on virtually all of America's manned space missions, also claims he has seen official NASA lithographs depicting UFOs.
And former US Air Force Sergeant, Karl Wolfe, who worked with the US Tactical Air Command and the NSA in the 1960s, revealed that he was shown photographs of artificial structures on the moon taken prior to the Apollo missions.
Claims made by other sources, most notably US researcher RICHARD HOAGLAND, tend to support the idea that artificial structures have been photographed on the moon.
Hoagland in particular claims alien artefacts photographed on the moon's surface substantiate his claim that NASA is suppressing evidence of an alien presence on the moon, and indeed, that an alien civilization once existed there.
And it would seem Hoagland is not alone in his belief. Word is even some of the Apollo astronauts are believers in the alien presence. But then, well they should be, shouldn't they? If the rumours are to be believed, it would appear they were the first to encounter them.

APOLLO 11'S ALIEN ENCOUNTER
According to Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, two massive alien spacecraft were waiting there to greet him as he and the Apollo 11 Lunar Module touched down on the moon's surface in July 1969.
Alleged conversations between Armstrong, Mission Control and an unnamed professor also disclose the reasons behind the US government's shock decision to cancel the Apollo Moon Landing program in 1973.
"It was in response to an alien warning."
For the past 40 years the rumour mill has spun itself out of orbit with claims about what Armstrong actually said following his historic moonwalk.
Though the images were grainy, and the quality of the transmission poor, millions of Americans none the less heard Armstrong's now-immortal 'One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind' speech.
But it is what he is alleged to have said next that has caused such fierce debate - and no small controversy - across the intervening decades.
Through the crackle and pop of what many believe was a deliberately contrived poor-quality broadcast, Armstrong was heard to say he could see a 'light' on the rim of a nearby crater. Mission Control responded with a request for more information, following which the transmission went dead.
"For a full two minutes nothing was heard"
Or was it? According to former NASA employee, Otto Binder, who worked on the Apollo program, US radio hams picked up the following conversation, which was alleged to have taken place during the transmission black-out.
"Neil Armstrong:" 'What was it? What the hell was it? That's all I want to know'
"Mission Control:" 'What's there? [garbled transmission] Mission Control calling Apollo Eleven'
"Neil Armstrong:" 'These babies are huge, sir enormous. Oh, God you wouldn't believe it! I'm telling you there are other spacecraft out there, lined up on the far side of the crater edge. They're on the moon watching us'
Though NASA has always denied the authenticity of the transmission, former NASA technician, Maurice Chatelain, revealed otherwise.
'The encounter was common knowledge in NASA,' he said in 1979. 'But nobody has talked about it until now.'
Chatelain also confirmed radio communications were interrupted several times during the Apollo 11 mission 'in order to keep the truth from the public'.

NASA WARNED OFF
And there is further evidence of Apollo 11's alien encounter.
According to several sources, colour movie footage of the alien craft was shot by Armstrong's companion, Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin, the second man to walk on the moon. These same sources claim the CIA took charge of the footage on Apollo 11's return to earth. Even Armstrong himself is reported to have been silenced on the matter, though naturally he has always publicly denied this.
It was also reported that the KGB kept files on Apollo 11's alien encounter (see "COSMIC TOP SECRET: THE UNSEEN AGENDA" by Jon King), and that subsequent to the encounter the Soviet Union backed out of the moon race to avoid confrontation with the aliens.
And in the JANUARY 27TH, 1999 EDITION OF RUSSIA'S PRAVDA NEWSPAPER, in an article incredibly titled "'Sensation: Cities Found On The Moon!'", the following extract appeared:
'NASA scientists and engineers participating in exploration of Mars and the Moon reported the results of their discoveries at a briefing at the Washington National Press Club on March 21, 1996. It was announced for the first time that man-made structures and objects have been discovered on the Moon.'
The article went on to state that 'the ruins of lunar cities stretch for many kilometres' and that 'huge domes', 'numerous tunnels' and 'other constructions' were causing 'scientists to reconsider their opinions concerning the moon'.
Once again, NASA has denied the validity of this article.
But several other reports have emerged out of Russia.
Speaking of the Apollo 11 encounter, renowned physicist and Professor of Mathematics at the KGB-sponsored Moscow University, Dr Vladimir Azhazha, revealed that 'the encounter was reported immediately after the landing of the module'.
He added: 'Neil Armstrong relayed the message to Mission Control that two large mysterious objects were watching them after having landed near the moon module. But his message was never heard by the public because NASA censored it.'
But perhaps the most intriguing claim was made by classical musician and UFO researcher, Timothy Good, who said he was informed by a British intelligence agent of a subsequent conversation between Neil Armstrong and an unnamed professor.
Evidently the conversation took place in a hotel bedroom, and was 'overheard' by the snooping agent.
"Professor:" 'What really happened out there with Apollo Eleven?'
"Neil Armstrong:" 'It was incredible of course, we had always known there was a possibility the fact is we were warned off. There was never any question then of a space station or a Moon City.'
"Professor:" 'How do you mean, 'warned off'?'
"Neil Armstrong:" 'I can't go into details, except to say that their ships were far superior to ours, both in size and technology. Boy, were they big and menacing. No, there is no question of a space station.'
This last statement is revealing in itself. At this point NASA had invested hundreds of millions of dollars researching the construction of a futuristic Moon City (left). Plans for the base were already at a very advanced stage. At the same time Russia had spent equally vast sums on its own moon landing program. But following the initial Apollo landings, things changed.
"Mysteriously Russia would pull out of the 'moon race' altogether and even more mysteriously NASA would call an end to the Apollo Moon program way before time. Russia would never attempt to land on the moon. NASA's plans for a Moon City would be shelved."
The conversation concluded:
"Professor:" 'But NASA had other missions after Apollo Eleven.'
"Neil Armstrong:" 'Naturally, NASA was committed at that time, and couldn't risk a panic on earth But it really was a quick scoop and back again.'
And that's all it's been ever since.
