11: Artifacts of Life on Mars and the Moon
Most scientists will concede that there were probably some
forms of life on Mars at some point in the distant past, but which
have since disappeared as the planet itself died. But whether they will openly
accept that there has ever been intelligent life on Mars is another matter. Few scientists will
dare to make such an admission for fear of risking their credibility and their careers, given the amount of
controversy and ridicule that such ideas have come to provoke through
mass conditioning. Nonetheless, if there was
any life on Mars that was as evolved as we humans are today, then such life may
have been able to survive long enough on the dying planet that archeological evidence might still be fairly abundant there. This
would largely depend on whether they survived even after the planet’s mantle
had cooled and its tectonic plates had ceased moving (as is the case today) so
that any surface artifacts that remained would not have been lost by
natural planetary events such as earthquakes and volcanic activity, which would otherwise
effectively bury them.
But why should we even think that
Mars was ever a life-bearing planet, except out of
purely imaginative speculation? It’s the next most likely planet in our solar
system besides our own Earth to have ever been able to support life, but
this doesn’t mean that it ever did. Something more than just this fact has
influenced the idea and kept it alive in the human
conscience for so many years. Even before scientists discovered a Martian meteorite in the
Antarctic at the end of the twentieth century that
showed signs of fossilized microscopic life forms, the idea was already
well entrenched in our minds that there might be intelligent life on that planet, and not for a lack of evidence.
There have been a number of very
interesting phenomena witnessed by astronomers over the years and centuries, occurring on the
surface of Mars. In 1862, both Sir Norman
Lockyer and another man named Sacchi, separately observed a
long train of clouds on the planet’s surface, four days apart from each other.
On October 24th, 1864, and January 3rd, 1865, red lights
were observed on opposite sides of Mars. On June 17th, 1873, a Dr.
Sage of England officially observed a luminous object leave
Mars and arrive just five seconds later over the skies of Austria-Hungary before exploding. On June 10th,
1892, what resembled searchlight beams were observed projecting from Mars
towards Earth. This was witnessed again
both in 1928 and 1936 by French astronomers and confirmed by a Professor Robert
Damion. Also in 1892, on August
3rd, witnesses from different locations in England saw rapid flashes
of light on the Martian surface that could not be explained. Other brilliant
and clearly defined lights have been observed on Mars’ surface, having an
obviously nonrandom distribution in their locations and moving or changing in
color. These latter occurred in the years 1890, 1892, 1894, 1900, 1911, 1924,
1937, 1952, 1954, 1967, and 1971. Alternatively, extremely dark spots of a
transient nature were observed on the Martian surface in 1925, 1952, and 1954.
Many strange geometrical patterns have also been observed on Mars’ surface. Dr. William H.
Pickering was the first man to report these, and was
later joined by Harold T. Wilkins, a respected English
archeologist-mythologist, who recorded
his findings in his book, Flying Saucers on the Attack. These
observations included a vast octagon that was soon replaced by a five-pointed
star, a cross enclosed in a circle, equilateral triangles, and other obviously
artificial configurations. On November 24th, 1894, at Lowell
Observatory, Pickering observed a
self-luminous object stationed about twenty miles above the unilluminated
Martian surface. He also observed a seventy minute long light display on the
planet’s surface on December 17th, 1900, and believed there was an
intelligent pattern to it. On January 15th, 1950, Tsuneo Saheki, a Japanese astronomer, witnessed a similar
display on the Martian surface, as well as what he considered to be atomic
explosions. The latter were the brightness of a sixth-magnitude star – far more
intense than any natural surface activity could possibly be – and lasted for
five minutes.
Nikola Tesla, one of the most
brilliant inventors and discoverers that ever lived, believed that he was
communicating with intelligent beings from Mars, and was supported in his
convictions by none other than Lord Kelvin, who publicly announced
his agreement on May 18th, 1902. Guglielmo Marconi, another great scientist
and a contemporary of Tesla’s, was also convinced
that he had intercepted communications from Mars while conducting atmospheric
experiments with wireless technology on board his yacht Electra.
Although astronomers had already been able to closely observe the
Martian planet, and their telescopes were quite sufficient to easily notice
such objects, both of Mars’s moons, Deimos and Phobos, were for some reason not
discovered until 1877. Along with our own moon, these celestial objects do not appear to be at all natural. Phobos is
inexplicably gaining speed in its orbit, currently making three and a half
orbits in one Martian day, and this orbit is too circularly perfect to seem
natural. It also orbits in a direction counter to every other known body in the
universe – west to east. Phobos and our own moon have both been suggested to be
hollow, due to a discrepancy between their positions relative to their host
planets and their calculated masses. Our own moon is one quarter (1/4) the
diameter of Earth, but only one eightieth
(1/80) its mass. Our moon, strangely, rotates exactly once for every orbit it
makes around Earth, so that we’re always exposed to its same face. This is very
unusual, and seems to have somehow been unnaturally caused. The appearance of
the Phobos moon is rather strange. Its main surface feature is an enormous,
perfectly round crater that takes up a third of the moon’s diameter. A
secondary feature is a perfectly straight groove or track mark that traverses
this moon’s circumference and leads to the giant crater. These grooves or tracks were noticed
to have increased in number in the eighteen years between the time of the Mariner
9 and the Phobos 2 space probes. It has been suggested
that both Phobos and our own moon might be interstellar space vehicles, and although this might
seem like an outrageous idea, it makes more logical sense than what scientists are only able to assume about these two
objects.
US space projects that have been undertaken to explore
Mars have resulted in some compelling evidence that intelligent life once existed there, and perhaps still does.
This evidence was first revealed in photographs taken of the planet’s surface
by NASA’s 1972 Mariner probes, which showed what
appeared to be pyramidal structures in the Elysium region of Mars, and which had been commented on at
the time by the noted cosmologist Carl Sagan, but few people took
further notice. Also noticed was what appeared to be artificially formed walls
or possibly stepped terraces whose overall formation closely resembles that of
Machu Picchu, Peru. This latter site is
found close to the southern Martian pole and is aptly referred to as ‘Inca City’.
Then, with the 1976 Viking probes, there was the further
discovery of what appear to be a number of other structures of artificial
design on the Martian surface, this time on the opposite side of the
planet in the Cydonia Mensae region. These include what appear to be
pyramidal structures and a large human-like face that appears to
have been carved out of a natural mound. Careful photo analysis
of this region has revealed many finer details that suggest artificial design
even more strongly, including structures aligned at perfect right angles to
each other and on a perfect east-west orientation – very similar to the way our
own city blocks are commonly laid out. Some of these structures show evidence of having undergone serious damage at some
point in the past.
Many mathematical correlates have also been found within and
between the Mars structures that strongly suggest artificial
design and an advanced knowledge of planetary measurements. Similar correlates
have also been found with the pyramids at Giza and with other ancient megalithic sites here on Earth as well. Although they are too intricate to
get into here, these findings are discussed in depth in a number of published
books, most notably by the author/researcher Richard C. Hoagland.
Other apparently artificial
anomalies exist in other places on the Martian surface. One of these, improperly named the
‘Crater Pyramid’, is located five hundred
miles northeast of Cydonia in the Deuteronilus Mensae region. Here, a tall spire sits near the rim of a
crater and casts it’s long, thin shadow across the Martian surface. It is
estimated to reach as high as two thousand feet into the Martian sky. Similar
strange spires show up elsewhere as well, including on the surface of our own
moon.
Further to all of this, in 1989,
the Soviets lost two separate probes, Phobos 1 and Phobos 2, while
attempting to investigate the more mysterious of Mars’ moons, Phobos. One probe lost all
further radio contact with Earth, while the other was said
to have been destroyed by an impact of some sort. But prior to the second probe
being lost, it sent a very unusual final image back to Earth. This image showed
a dark elliptical object, estimated to be twelve to sixteen miles in length,
positioned in space between the planet’s surface and the Phobos
moon. A similar object had
been photographed a few days previously as well. Also discovered in later
analysis of the images that Phobos 2 sent back to Earth was a two
hundred and thirty square mile area consisting of what appears to be a grid
pattern of parallel lines and rectangles, but these images were taken by an
infrared camera that revealed heat sources, rather than regular topographical
images, meaning that these were underground features. This seemed to indicate
an underground city.
In 1993, the American Observer
probe to Mars was also reportedly lost, again due to the
failure of the radio link. Just prior to it being launched, it was
discovered that dirt and debris had gotten into certain components, including
one of its high-resolution cameras. It was suspected by NASA officials that somebody had attempted to
sabotage this probe. Whatever the case, this was discovered at the last minute
and corrected, only to lose the probe anyway, three days from reaching its
destination. This eventual loss may also have been sabotage. The radio link had
been ordered to be temporarily turned off for questionable reasons, totally
disregarding the fact that by doing so it might never be re-established, which
it apparently wasn’t. It is suspected by some that this Observer probe
was hijacked, and the data link was privately maintained by unknown parties
working at NASA. Many of the people working at NASA are high-ranking members of
secret societies, such as the Freemasons, and may be using their
positions of influence to pursue the agendas of these secret groups.
Mars is not the only celestial body on which strange anomalies have been observed. Closer to home, our own
moon has been the setting for the observation of
strange lights and geometrical patterns. Friedrich Wilhelm
Herschel, discoverer of the planet
Uranus, observed small, luminous
points of bright light on the moon in 1783, 1787, and 1790. In 1794, Dr.
William Wilkins of Norwich, England, as well as others,
observed a stationary light on the moon’s dark side, bright enough to be
visible to the naked eye, which lasted for fifteen minutes and grew brighter
before it disappeared. On October 20th, 1824, a sometimes-flashing
light was seen on the moon’s dark side. On January 22nd, 1825, just
months later, two separate lights were observed, one of them in the Aristarchus
crater. On May 13th,
1870, a number of English astronomers observed lights in the Plato crater, from four to
twenty-eight at any given time. In 1877, bright lights were reported in the
Proclus and Picard craters. On June 17th,
1877, Professor Henry Harrison of New York observed a light in the moon’s shadowed side.
On September 7th, 1820, a number of people saw objects flying in a
straight line at regular intervals during a lunar eclipse. A similar phenomenon
was witnessed during a solar eclipse on August 7th, 1869, by a
Professor Swift of Illinois and by Professors Hines and Zentmayer in Europe. In 1874, large numbers
of dark objects were reportedly seen crossing the moon, and on April 24th,
1874, Professor Schafarik of Prague observed a dazzlingly white object that slowly
traversed the moon’s disk. Other objects were reported in 1892, 1896, 1899,
1902, 1910, 1912, and 1917. In 1877, Monsieur Trouvelot of the Meudon Observatory observed what appeared to be a luminous cable
in Eudoxus crater, and a Dr. Klien reported seeing a luminous triangle in the
Plato crater. On the same night as this latter
incident, a number of observers saw ‘flakes’ of light converging on the floor
of Plato crater from every other crater and forming into a triangle.
Further anomalous sightings have been made on the moon’s surface over the years,
including a curved wall, synchronous lights, changing patches of color, reddish
smoke and shadows, black spots, shafts of light, crosses, an acute-angle
triangle, etc. In 1952, Dr. H. H.
Nuninger, director of Arizona’s American Meteorite
Museum, discovered a twenty-mile
long tunnel with smooth walls that connects the craters Messier and Pickering in the Sea of Fecundity. In 1953, former science
editor for the New York Herald-Tribune, John
O’Neill, observed a bridge-like
structure of approximately twelve miles in length spanning the Sea of Crisis. H. P. Wilkins, head of the British Astronomical Association’s Lunar Section,
confirmed the sighting and expressed the opinion that it appeared artificial in
nature and was probably of recent construction. Dome-like structures have also
been frequently observed on the lunar surface, often disappearing, only
to reappear elsewhere. On September 29th, 1958, huge alphabetic
characters – PYAX JWA – were seen on the moon’s surface by Dr. Kenzahuro Toyoda of Menjii University in Japan. On February 4th,
1966, the Soviet lunar probe, Luna 9,
photographed two straight lines of towering structures in the Sea of Storms. Identical structures
were later observed in the Utopia region of the Martian surface. These lunar towers were calculated to
be approximately fifteen stories high and evenly spaced. On November 20th,
1966, the US space probe Orbiter 2 snapped a picture of six spires
arranged in a geometrical pattern in the Sea of Tranquility.
Although the unusual events and
anomalies presented here provide strong evidence that intelligent life once existed in our solar system and apparently still does, NASA refuses to acknowledge this or publicly look
into it further, and has even gone out of its way and acted rather dishonorably
in order to keep the public ignorant of these things. It is only through the
tenacious efforts of such private investigators as Richard C. Hoagland that we know about this and other evidence at
all. When the public found out about the face at Cydonia, NASA was reluctantly
pressured into exploring it further during the next Mars mission. They took several more pictures of
the Cydonia region when the lighting on the face would reveal more features
that would hopefully be conclusive proof that the first images were not just a
coincidence of shadow formations. The new pictures, however, have not been very
revealing one way or the other, and the question of whether it’s an
artificially designed face or just a trick of light still remains unanswered.
It might be concluded that all of
the excitement over the face might have been unwarranted, but the actions (and
inactions) of NASA regarding this issue is by itself enough to
raise a great deal of suspicion. Since the artificial face at Cydonia was first discovered and brought to the
public’s awareness, NASA has gone out of its
way to make it difficult to learn the truth, one way or the other. They have
purposely renumbered the photo images in question so as to make it hard for
anyone to find them on their official website, and they have taken the attitude
that their conclusions regarding these images are the final word on the
subject, without providing any relevant information as to how they arrived at
such a conclusion. Nor have they acknowledged the analyses of other investigators,
and have instead effectively ignored them and not bothered to respond to their
inquiries regarding this issue. Is this how fair and objective science is
conducted?
NASA works hand in hand with the US military, and although they are a
public institution that depends on tax dollars for their existence, they
operate as though they were a private institution that is not there for the
benefit of the public, and therefore not answerable to them. One would think
that the possibility of intelligent life on our neighboring planet would be a matter of
great interest to a space agency, but by all outward appearances it is
not, and this seems very strange. Meanwhile, unmanned missions to Mars have continued, albeit with no stated goal
other than to study the planet up close. Without being aware of these many
anomalous observations that have been made over the
years and centuries by professional astronomers, we might only wonder
what the real goal of these space missions might be. However, now that the reader is aware
of these facts, it becomes more reasonable to believe that there is indeed an
ongoing alien presence in our solar system, and the major
governments of the world know this, and are doing their
best to keep this knowledge out of public awareness. Why?
If there are other intelligent
beings inhabiting our solar system, as this evidence indicates, then perhaps the governments of our world have a legitimate desire to keep
this knowledge from the greater public, at least until they are able to
properly evaluate the situation and its implications, and take whatever steps
might be necessary. But necessary for what? For defending against a potential
foe? For conditioning us to a new worldview? For maintaining a
certain sense of order? The deeper one considers the implications from the
perspective of those with the greatest power and influence, the greater is seen the
potential desire to hide the truth from the public while taking advantage of it
for themselves in the pursuit of their own agendas.
However, these strange phenomena that have been witnessed in the vicinity of
the moon and Mars in relatively recent times may not be the
first clues that have come up that indicate an alien presence has long existed nearby. The phenomena described in this chapter may just be the
latest confirmation of what has been known for a long time among certain groups
in our society, and only the latest that they have felt the need to cover up.
Other evidence has arisen over the years and centuries, but
has always been explained away by whatever means available, or has otherwise
been ignored or suppressed, and a systematic method
of cover-up has been incorporated into the very foundations of the scientific
establishment that has effectively kept silent those who
might otherwise promote this evidence for what it more accurately reveals. Much
of this evidence suggests that our understanding of our own human origins is hugely inaccurate, and that an advanced
civilization existed on Earth long before our own. Whether that civilization
was human or otherwise is uncertain, but if all the evidence that I uncover
within these pages is taken at face value, we can see that an intelligent human-like
presence with advanced technologies has been here on our planet in the distant
past, and may still be here today. We will now turn our attention to this other
evidence.
