-Caveat Lector-
More on Mr. Lewis - this nice story shows what kind of a guy the author
of the above captioned subject matter, is. He rewrote a stale joke to
introduce a little smut to further dirty up the men some of whom died
trying to get there, who landed successfully on the moon.
This Lewis lives in the movies - I shall never forget Dan Quayle who too
was losing touch with reality when he said "Just like the movie
Hoosiers" and then got so involved with Murphy Brown, well that guy had
a problem. Nice guy, but hey get real?
When we landed on the moon, and this was no secret, ABC, CBS, and NBC
all had made simulated films of landing on the moon - based on that
rumours were started by alleged Americans, that we didnot land on the
moon.......for you see Russia it is said in this item which I am
reproducing was the best - American was inferior to Russian Scientists.
The standing jokes on Soviet and American bases working on moon shot was
"our German scientists now more than your German scientists, so there".
Our space program was sabotaged; the enemy with, those who leaked
information to the press for the enemy to pick up - like the phoney UFO
sightings when our planes returned to Viet Nam loaded with munitions for
our troops - the enemy would lie in wait knowing the time of their
arrival by the sending of these phoney UFO reports for the UFO's were
our planes leaving....
Say this this Clyde Lewis to me is a stupid bastard - and when you read
the entirety of this item you can guess first where he gets some of his
information and you shall know also he is what I would call the enemy
within - anti Reagon? Anti bulding defense system - no doubt a pro UN
pusher - and to me just another asshole either making or receiving a
buck for spreading lies about the brave men who llanded on the moon.
Real heros know how to keep their mouths shut; as John Glen reported in
an interview when asked, when he circled the earth - he received his
salary from the military of $16,000 a year - that was all. He never
chose to commercialize his heroic act, but when out of service took job
with Royal Crown Cola but you did not see them advertising this stuff
using UFOs?
UFOs---------nice communication system, and a front for many enemys of
the USA.
Read this garbage and decide for yourself.....by the way this guy sells
T Shirts with UFO mottos......think he ran out of some sizes......
UFO's make such a nice cover for those with let us say a not all too
hidden agenda?
This guy is just another asshole who would leave this country
defenseless.......

Good Luck, Mr. Gorsky!
And other lies about the moon.
by Clyde Lewis
Thirty years ago People gathered around their television screens to
witness one of the most remarkable feats of the Millennium. While Walter
Cronkite was holding back the tears, the nation knew that man had landed
on the moon. They knew it because they saw it. They knew it because the
government said it happened. They knew it because �well just because.
That's all the proof they needed. Its 1999 where is the proof?History
buffs will recall that when Neil Armstrong, the first astronaut walked
on the moon he made a mistake when saying his famous "One small step
speech." He was supposed to say, "This is one small step for a man, one
giant leap for mankind." Well the words he said are history but the
words he said after are in the outtakes. You will probably never hear or
see them on Bloopers and Practical Jokes but story goes that he made a
few remarks after his two feet hit the lunar sand pile. The Story from
NASA is that Armstrong made the comment "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky."
Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning Russia.
That perhaps some cosmonaut named Gorsky was Armstrong's rival and that
it was some blow below the belt at Russia's failed attempt at a moon
landing. However, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in either the
Russian or American space programs. Who was Gorsky? People always
confronted Armstrong and asked about Gorsky and Neil would turn red and
smile, but never talked about it.
Recently at a press conference in Florida a reporter brought up the
enigmatic Gorsky to Armstrong. He asked the question that many reporters
had attempted to ask and never got an answer. "Who the Hell is this
Gorsky guy you talked about while on the moon?" For 26 years he avoided
the question because he didn't want to embarrass Mr. Gorsky. But this
time it was the reporter's lucky day Armstrong finally responded. Mr.
Gorsky had died so Neil felt that answering the question wouldn't harm
anyone.
Armstrong related the story that when he was a kid, he played baseball
with a friend of his. Armstrong threw a pitch and his friend hit a pop
fly ball, which landed in the front of his neighbor's bedroom window.
Mr. & Mrs. Gorsky were his neighbors. Neil ran to get the ball. As he
leaned down to pick it up, he couldn't help but overhear Mrs. Gorsky
yelling at Mr. Gorsky. There she was screaming at the top of her lungs
"Oral sex! You want oral sex?! You'll get oral sex when the kid next
door walks on the moon!"
Isn't that a great Story? It never happened. It's one of those Urban
Legends that everyone loves to tell.
Professor Jan Harold Brunvand once said, "The truth never stands in the
way of a good story." No matter how many times this story is told it
always sounds so believable, such a wonderful story. It has made it into
Newspapers and who knows it may be accepted as true history some day. No
matter if it is a white lie.
There is also the old saying "The Bigger the lie, the easier it is to
convince others that it is the Truth."
On July 20th 1969 man landed on the moon. A remarkable feat considering
it was a direct hit on our first try. That the entire space program went
virtually without a hitch and not one man died on the moon. We had
mishaps and problems before the moon launch, but miraculously not one
death during the big show. It was a miracle we made it through the
radiation belts. Oh yes, while the rocket blasted off we forgot all
about James Van Allen. You may have heard of him, he was the guy who
discovered dangerous radiation belts that surround the earthsome 60,000
to 100,000 miles up.
The Van Allen Belt spews out enough deadly radiation counts to kill any
human who ventures into it unprotected. Scientific experiments conducted
by Van Allen and the military proved that belt was so deadly that no
human could survive in its orbit. The capsule would have to have been
lined with 4 feet of lead to protect the astronauts. It was lined with
aluminum.
We forgot about that. Because it was on television. We were kids. We
dreamed the dreams and believed in them.
The television beamed the blurry images from the moon and we were
amazed. We were so astonished that we forgot to look for stars in the
firmament above the lunar surface. No worry though there weren't any to
see. It seemed odd when in a place with no atmosphere there would be
nothing to block starlight. That would mean there would be billions of
bright lights to see. None were seen.
It would also mean that that there would be a glare of sunlight during
the day. Not soft light. How could there be diffused light on the moon?
Diffused lights are used in TV studios and sound stages. Maybe that
would explain the pictures that grace our History books. Why they were
so breath taking. Now wait a minute! Television Images were blurry;
other pics were soft and pleasantly arranged so that they looked
captivating in your Viewmaster. The Moon landing was so awesome back
then! To think that light reacts the same way without an atmosphere as
it does with an atmosphere. That breath taking photos can be taken at
temperatures of 250 degrees Fahrenheit when most film melts at 150
degrees. John Carter from mars had a ray gun and Buck Rogers had anti
gravity boots, and our Astronauts had heat proof film.
We saw footprints in the lunar sand. Footprints that remained in the dry
Lunar soil. It reminded me of when I was on the beaches of the Great
Salt Lake and how the sand wouldn't even keep my footprints in tact. I
later learned that in order for soil to retain a footprint, there must
be moisture. That's why when the water receded I saw my footprints in
the sand. I learned in school that there was no water on the moon.
Besides in that heat I'll bet it was hard to keep things wet even if
there was a little moisture on the moon.
It made you feel proud to be an American as the small steps for a man
made an even deeper impression than a 3000-pound lunar lander. It was
remarkable to see that with all of the thrust from the rockets there was
no crater left in what Armstrong described as a surface that is similar
to a light powder. It was so great to see the clean Lander, with no dust
on it, made you proud that the astronauts were tidy. I mean with all of
that zero gravity it sure would be probable that some of that fine dust
would be kicked up into the area surrounding the Lunar leg, Not to
mention a chance at static or magnetization. When we were kids we
believed every bit of it.
I'm not a kid any more.
The very idea of questioning the moon landing is heresy. I can
appreciate it if you think I am crazy. I'm not alone. The numbers of
those who are beginning to question grow every day. You see what people
fail to realize is that there are no independent witnesses to the actual
events that took place on the moon.
We take for granted that the evidence is in fact genuine, honestly
portrayed, and responsibly reported. In actual fact, mankind has no
proof at all that we ever set foot on the Moon, other than the
photographs that NASA has elected to publish.
As you can tell there are many things that sound so outrageous and silly
that it is hard to believe we fell for all of it. The power of
television kept the dream lit, and the threat of war and the challenge
of a young Vibrant leader gunned down in his prime kept us from being
cynical for a split second. It brought us together for one moment in
time before we realized that yes there was an Ugly war, and perhaps our
x-leader was the Victim of a governmental coup.
We needed heroes. It took $30 billion to make them. It wasn't enough
that there were heroes fighting In Vietnam. We needed glamour boys
jumping up and down on a sound stage. Anything to show our superiority.
People forget who was ahead of us in the race for space. The evil
Russians. Well they were evil back then. However they sure did know how
to run a space program. In the initial stages of the space race, the
USSR had the edge over the United States by virtue of its Vostok and
Voskhod spacecraft, which were technologically superior to the American
spacecraft of the time. The Russians had the First animals in space and
the first Humans in space. One day they wake up and hear we land on the
moon. They throw in the towel. Why did they give up? They could have
topped us by landing a ship on the moon that was capable of building a
space station. It's been 30 years since we landed on the moon. It was 30
years ago we went 250,000 miles to deep space. It was a space program
where launches to the moon went virtually flawless. Even in tragedy,
such as Apollo 13 the Astronauts returned with a happy ending. 30 years
after the moon.
We send up shuttles. Shuttles that only go 250 miles into space. We
build orbiting Space stations, and we lost seven astronauts in the
Challenger Disaster. Is this Progress? Why aren't we flying shuttles to
the moon? Why aren't we building space stations and vacation complexes
on the moon? Why are we sending Robots to the moon to investigate Ice
formations? And finally why is it that for Nostalgic reasons we don't
send a couple of astronauts back to the moon to relive the experience?
It's simple. We never went.
You can argue that the cover-up would have to have been shared by some
35,000 NASA employees and approximately 200,000 supporting companies who
worked on the Apollo Project. So are you willing to argue that in your
office no matter where you work every department knows what the other
department is doing?
This is where the art of compartmentalization is utilized to its
fullest. It happened with the Manhattan project and several other
projects. Secrets can be kept. Money and the threat of death are pretty
basic enablers for secrecy. Patriotism also plays a factor. The very
fact that I am suggesting we didn't go to the moon makes me a fringe
weirdo in some circles. So imagine what would happen if anyone opened
their mouths.
People will also argue that there were no technologies available to fake
such a mission. Simulating one-sixth the gravity of earth would be easy
using movie magic. Hydraulics, wires, and some scenes shot in underwater
aquariums. No one knows for sure. Technologies allegedly are developed
20 years before they are commercial which would lend credence to the
possibility that in 1969, battleground simulations and planetary terrain
programs could have been used with the aid of something as simple as a
blue screen.
The crude versions were seen in Stanley Kubrick's 2001 a space Odyssey.
It has even been suggested that Kubrick was selected as The director in
Charge (a la Wag the Dog) of the moon landings. That he will never get
the credit he deserves for their direction. Author C.Powers wrote:
The story goes that in early 1968, Kubrick was secretly approached by
NASA officials who presented him with a lucrative offer to "direct" the
first three moon landings.
Initially Kubrick declined, as "2001: A Space Odyssey" was in
post-production at the time, but NASA threatened to publicly reveal the
heavy involvement of Stanley's younger brother, Raul, with the American
Communist Party. This would have been an intolerable embarrassment to
Mr. Kubrick, especially since the release of "Dr. Strangelove". Kubrick
finally relented, and for sixteen months he and a special effects team
-- led by Douglas Trumbull worked in a specially built sound stage in
Huntsville, Alabama, "creating" the first and second moon landings. This
effort resulted in hundreds of hours of 35mm and video "footage" of the
Apollo 11 and 12 moon missions.
The bogus Apollo 11 mission was masterfully staged in July of 1969. A
Saturn V rocket with astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins was
launched into low Earth orbit, remaining there while NASA carefully
released Kubrick's studio footage to the press. After the spectacular
"lunar landing" and "return to Earth," the astronauts reentered Earth's
atmosphere and made a perfect splash down in the Pacific, right on
schedule. Several months later, the Apollo 12 mission was successfully
staged in a similar manner.
Mr. Kubrick refused to direct the Apollo 13 mission, however, because
NASA officials rejected his screenplay in which the Apollo 13 mission
fails. Kubrick insisted that a dramatic failed mission from which the
astronauts were safely returned to Earth would ultimately prove to be
NASA's "finest hour."
NASA maintained that a failed mission would unnecessarily jeopardize the
agency's image, so Kubrick quit the project. Ironically, NASA later
decided to use the failed mission scenario, for which Randall Cunningham
-- a little known but highly respected British director was recruited to
direct.
Kubrick's relentless perfectionism is evident throughout the Apollo
production, from the chilling "1201 alarm" during the final seconds of
the Eagle's descent to the lunar surface, right down to the lunar dust
covering the astronaut's EVA suits.
This all seems a bit hypothetical or is it? Powers also claims:
A moon set was built on the Mercury base, which was code-named
Copernicus.
The set was built in an underground cavern.
There were provisions for lighting, camera tracks and special effects
equipment.
All moonwalk scenes were filmed on the set.
The "missions" were controlled by complexes of IBM 370 computers.
There were radio links to major tracking stations in Australia, Spain,
and California, and a satellite broadcasting a copy of the voice
channel.
Some people claim that you can even catch a few rare NASA Photos where
you see astronauts posing in front of blue screens, and wasn't that
James Bond Jumping in front of astronauts on a sound stage in "Diamonds
are forever?" Before you yell out the obvious one "Capricorn one" the
movie with O.J. Simpson, did anyone catch Dan Aykroyd's character in the
Movie Sneakers? He plays a Mechanical geek who quoted fact after fact
including another so called fact about some hardware they were using
"This LTX71 cancelable mike is part of the same system NASA used when
they faked the Apollo moon landings." Are there lunar hints hidden
everywhere in Hollywood?
You see other people twist stories to show that perhaps that all is not
right in the sea of tranquility.
If you are finding yourself confused by all this you are not alone. The
bottom line is that there are two obvious scenarios One, we never went
to the Moon and we have been conned for 30 years. Or the Photos and the
footage were all publicity photos and footage done in a studio. There
were three astronauts involved in the moon landing and I find it odd
that we were able to document the actual landing without a large crew
and a technical director to make it look great on the Television set.
How hard is it to comprehend the possibility of a three-day orbit and
splash down with decoy astronauts playing in a makeshift sandbox on a
soundstage? It is easy isn't it? It's not comfortable but it is easy to
imagine it.
Is it hard to imagine Cash Bonuses and veiled threats to keep those in
the know quiet about what really happened during the moon landing? Is it
any wonder that Neil Armstrong has kept a low profile about the first
moon landing? That he seldom talks to the press? It is equally troubling
to note that while we praised John Glenn for his nostalgic flight in the
shuttle to commemorate his Friendship seven orbit; we merely pause to
remember the Moon landing.
The whole event was 30 years ago and to this day the Moon landing seems
so deliberate and carefully guarded. The moon landing itself seemed so
cold, so devoid of any feeling. The dialogue seemed carefully scripted
and delivered with no emotion. What emotions would you have if you knew
that you were setting foot on extraterrestrial soil? There seemed to be
no tears and no fears. Just a routine giant leap for mankind.
The Moon Landing was my Kindergarten memory. Was it only a paper moon
hanging in a cardboard scene? If there was anytime to fake such an
endeavor it had to be 1969. We were living in the throes of a cold War.
In order to calm worries about Russian space superiority we could have
easily devised a plan to use moon propaganda to fool the Soviets into
wasting valuable resources in a competitive "space race", while we spent
relatively little money on fabricating our own achievements in this
competition. Remember they were far ahead of us, and still gave up after
the eagle had landed.
We sold our soul to the moon conspiracy; those involved could hardly
back out. Just think of the scandal that would result from the public
discovering that their tax dollars had been abused! We have been
condemned to continue the lie. Money has bought silence. Fear has kept
the astronauts quiet. You may ask yourself Fear of what? Well according
to Bill Kaysing who appeared on an early Ground Zero Radio Program fear
for their lives.
Kaysing Contends that there were some astronauts who were ready to blow
the whistle on how bad the space program was. He claimed that Tom Baron,
complained to Congress that after thoroughly examining the aerospace
program, the Apollo missions were unsafe. He was killed 4 days after he
testified. Gus Grissom of course had protested openly about Apollo's
safety problems died on the launchpad in 1967 when fire swept through
his capsule. This mishap was used to show that anyone who wished to
speak out about the moon hoax would meet the same end.
If the moon landing was a hoax, it's only part of the lie. It was said
to be our finest hour, NASA's crowning achievement. Yet we haven't gone
back.
Many uneducated people believe that the Space Shuttle is a remarkable
invention. Remarkable only because we marvel at it's mediocrity.
We have been to the moon! At least that is what NASA tells you. We have
carried large payloads 250,000 miles to the moon without one astronaut
dead. Yet, we have Space shuttles that travel only 250 miles above
earth. We have had seven astronauts die attempting to go only a fraction
of what the Apollo astronauts achieved effortlessly.
Thirty years after the moon landing I can't even get Windows 98 to work
without crashing and we can put a man effortlessly on the moon and bring
him back. I can't even get a conversation going between Juno Alaska and
Portland Oregon without a 2-second delay, but in 1969 astronauts can
reply incredibly fast from 250,000 miles away with no problems. Not to
mention the clearness of the astronauts voices in 1969. Thirty years
later you get into a blind area and your Cell Phone dies in rush hour
traffic.
Can you still make a case for a moon landing when the computers used on
the missions back then were allegedly no more sophisticated than the
computer in your toaster oven? I know that a lot of people are amused at
the fact that someone can even say that we did not land on the moon.
People will always say "Look How far we have come."
After the Moon landing the sky really wasn't the limit anymore. At least
so we thought. Now it is limited to orbiting space stations and shuttles
that routinely leave earth and orbit 250 miles.
We chose to go to the moon, we chose to go to the moon 30 years ago. We
chose it because there was a dream that existed. The dream was a
civilization that works out its differences on the moon. The underlying
dream was superiority. If we owned the moon, then we could dictate it's
government, it's inhabitants. It is still a dream.
When the moon landing happened in 1969, a 5-year-old watched and dreamed
of living on the moon some day.
He dreamed packing his belongings and buying a ticket for that trip that
would take him above the earth.
How was I to know that even the first Astronauts ticket stubs were
counterfeit?
I would like to believe we landed on the moon. So I still think about it
and I smile a cautious smile hoping no one figures out that I have lost
my faith.
It's the same cautious smile I give at Christmas when a child opens a
present that is from Santa Claus. After all, The truth never stands in
the way of a good story.
The Moon landing will always be a good story, eh Mr. Gorsky?
SABA NOTE: Now Mr Gorsky - note this idiot has turned even that lie
into an obscenity.......Hey Mr. Lewis - got more T Shirts in stock yet?
Why not put that Map of all secret US installations on same - would sell
well in China?
This piece of garbage written by a guy hawking space and UFO T-Shirts -
is enough - well isn't this story really rather obvious? Bet the T
shirts are not red white and blue - just red with white star in center?
