About Dark Mission: The Secret History Of NASA (bibliotecapleyades.net)

The NASA that we’ve known for over 50 years has been a lie.

My name is Richard C. Hoagland.

As the brief authors’ biography page states, I was indeed a NASA consultant to the Goddard Spaceflight Center in the post-Apollo era, and Science Advisor to Walter Cronkite and CBS News, Special Events, advising CBS on the science of the NASA missions to the Moon and Mars, during the Apollo Program.

I currently run an independent NASA watchdog and research group, the Enterprise Mission, attempting to figure out how much of what NASA has found in the solar system over the past 50 years has actually been silently filed out of sight as classified material, and therefore totally unknown to the American people.

My friend and colleague Mike Bara and I are going to attempt the impossible in the next few hundred pages: we’re going to try to describe, and then carefully document, exactly what’s been going with NASA in terms of that classified data and information. It won’t be an easy task.

The predisposition of most Americans - even after the Challenger and Columbia disasters and a host of other “missing” spacecraft - is to place NASA somewhere on par with Mother Teresa in terms of public confidence and credibility.

This is, in major part, due to the average American’s (to say nothing of the media’s) inability to figure out a reason why NASA - ostensibly a purely scientific Agency - would actually lie. NASA is, after all, holding high the beacon of our last true heroes, the astronauts. I mean, what’s to hide regarding moon rocks, craters and space radiation? If we’re right, a lot.

However, even a hint that NASA - or, more precisely, its leadership - has been carrying out any kind of hidden agenda for over 50 years is, at best, met with disbelief.

The vast majority of NASA’s nearly 18,000 full-time employees are, in our analysis, innocent of the wrongdoing of the few that we are going to describe.

To even begin to understand the extraordinary case we are presenting in this book, to fully appreciate what NASA has been quite consciously, deliberately and methodically concealing from the American people and the world for all these years, you have to begin with NASA’s turbulent past - specifically an account of its origins in the increasingly dangerous geopolitical environment Americans were thrust into in the wake of World War II.

The governmental institution known as NASA is a department of the Executive Branch, ultimately answerable solely to the President of the United States, an Agency created through the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958.

NASA ostensibly is,

“a civilian agency exercising control over aeronautical and space activities sponsored by the United States.”

But contrary to common public and media perception that NASA is an open, strictly civilian scientific institution, is the legal fact that the Space Agency was quietly founded as a direct adjunct to the Department of Defense, tasked with specifically assisting the national security of the United States in the midst of a deepening Cold War with its major geopolitical adversary, the Soviet Union.

It says so right in the original NASA Charter:

“Sec. 305... (i) The [National Aeronautics and Space] Administration shall be considered a defense agency of the United States for the purpose of Chapter 17, Title 35 of the United States Code...”

In another section of the act, this seldom-discussed defense responsibility - the ultimate undercutting of NASA’s continuing public façade as a strictly civilian, scientific agency - is blatantly spelled out:

“Sec. 205... (d) No [NASA] information which has been classified for reasons of national security shall be included in any report made under this section [of the Act]...”

Clearly, from this and the other security provisions incorporated in the Act, what the Congress, the press and the American taxpayers get to see of NASA’s ultimate activities - including untouched images and data regarding what’s really on the Moon, on Mars or anywhere else across the solar system - is totally dependent on whether the President of the United States (and/or his legal surrogates in the Department of Defense and the “intelligence community”) has already secretly classified that data.

This is directly contrary to everything we’ve been led to believe regarding NASA for over 50 years now. After NASA was formed, almost before the ink was dry on the Bill that brought it into being (which, among many other detailed objectives, called for “the establishment of long-range studies of the potential benefits to be gained from, the opportunities for and the problems involved in the use of aeronautical and space activities for peaceful and scientific purposes”), NASA commissioned a formal “futures study” into the projected effects on American society of its many planned activities (including covert ones).

Carried out as a formal NASA contract to the Brookings Institution - a well-known Washington, D.C.-based think tank - the 1959 study was officially titled “Proposed Studies on the Implications of Peaceful Space Activities for Human Affairs.”

The results of this multi-disciplinary investigation were officially submitted to the administrator of NASA in late 1960, and after the Kennedy Administration was elected, to Congress in April 1961.

One area of unusual interest covered in the report - easily overlooked amid mountains of interminable statistics and analyses - was a quiet assessment of the near-certainty of a NASA discovery of intelligent extraterrestrial life:

“While face-to-face meetings with it [extra-terrestrial life] will not occur within the next 20 years (unless its technology is more advanced than ours, qualifying it to visit Earth), artifacts left at some point in time by these life forms might possibly be discovered through our [NASA’s] space activities on the Moon, Mars, or Venus.”

This quietly inserted sub-section of Brookings is revealing on many levels, and it forms the documented basis of our case - that the NASA “you thought you knew” doesn’t actually exist, and that NASA has been deliberately concealing and classifying its most significant discoveries because of “national security” rationales.

Brookings officially affirmed NASA’s expectations that the Agency would fly to nearby planets in the solar system, and would thus be physically capable, for the first time, of confronting “extraterrestrials” right in their backyard.

Did any skeptics even know this official document existed, before we made it public in 1996?

(Watch first below information - click on images...)

As you shall see documented later in this book, beginning in the mid-1960s with unmanned spacecraft, NASA actually discovered its projected extraterrestrial artifacts - but then, the Agency never got around to telling the rest of us!

NASA would clandestinely confirm with these earliest robotic probes, and then proceed to cover up, the first awesome remains of a once-extraordinary, solar-system-wide, ancient technological civilization on the Moon - precisely as Brookings had predicted.

Four years later, the Apollo Program would come to full fruition, and the lunar astronauts themselves would personally witness and extensively document, with tens of thousands of high quality photographs, from both lunar orbit and the surface, extraordinary “glasslike” structures on the Moon!

The Apollo crews would also bring back to NASA laboratories not just rocks, but actual samples of the ancient technologies they found - for highly classified efforts at “back engineering.”

Above is just one example of the ancient, glass-like lunar ruins photographed in person by the Apollo astronauts, and hidden away (by a former NASA employee) in a private archive for more than 30 years.

Later in this volume, far more details on those historic in-situ astronaut lunar ruins observations will be dealt with - and additional, uncensored Apollo photographs of these extensive structures, as well as photographs of some of the actual artifacts brought back to Earth - presented, and analyzed in depth.

A skeptic might well ask at this point, how can we be presenting valid, official NASA images of suppressed ruins and technology if the Agency has spent so much time and energy over the last 40 years covering them up?

The answer is that after two generations, leaked images like the one above - displaying stunning details of ancient lunar structures arching overhead, as well as key alien artifacts that have been brought back - have also suddenly begun appearing on the internet, on official NASA websites!

A small cadre of loyal NASA employees were witnesses to what actually went on, and agreed at that time to keep the secret in the interest of national security.

Some of these NASA employees, apparently, have finally “seen the light” - that this continued deception, no matter what the legal rationale or national security implications, was fundamentally extra-Constitutional. Because of these true NASA heroes, real space history as about to officially begin, again.

Based on our analysis as presented in this book, it is also our opinion that NASA’s entire lunar exploration program - culminating with the incredibly successful manned Apollo Project - was carefully conceived, from the beginning, as a kind of “alien reconnaissance” followed by an “alien artifacts retrieval” program.

Again, the intention to do just that was blatantly laid out in Brookings. We now believe this is the reason by which President John F. Kennedy - reported to be “totally disinterested in space” - was quietly convinced to announce his historic decision to “send men to the Moon... and return them safely to the Earth... within a decade” in May of 1961.

This was widely believed, then and now, to be Kennedy’s effort to demonstrate to the world the superiority of the American system, as opposed to Soviet communism. However, at the United Nations on September 20, 1963, the President suddenly issued a public invitation to the Soviets only two years into the Apollo “race” to the Moon:

an offer of a “cooperative, joint U.S./USSR lunar expedition.”

Of course, if there were a “hidden agenda” to Apollo, this move would have revealed that the prime objective was not to beat the Soviet Union, but to covertly find and return samples of the incredibly advanced lunar technology that had been waiting on the Moon for eons... and then to share them with the Soviets! Curiously enough, a mere two months following Kennedy’s startling U.N. proposition, the President was killed.

The enthusiastic architects of the continuing NASA Brookings cover-up, in part, are the same heroes we have been encouraged to worship as some of the leading pioneers of our technological era.

Their names are synonymous with America’s achievements in space science and rocket engineering. In many cases, they are also men with secret pasts - Germans, Egyptians, Englishmen and Americans, men at the very fringes of rational thought and conventional wisdom.

These literal “fringe elements,” then, are divided into three main groups inside the Agency, as best as we can tell at present.

For the purposes of this volume, we shall call them,

    the “Magicians”

    the “Masons”

    the “Nazis”

...and deal with each group separately.

Each “sect” is led by prominent individuals, and supported by lesser known players. Each has stamped their own agenda on our space program, in indelible but traceable ways.

And each, remarkably, is dominated by a secret or “occult” doctrine, that is far more closely aligned with “ancient religion and mysticism” than it is with the rational science and cool empiricism these men promote to the general public as NASA’s overriding mantra.

Using commercially available celestial mechanics/astronomical software - programs like the popular “Red Shift” series (which uses the official JPL ephemeris as its database) - we have been able to establish a pattern of behavior on NASA’s part that points to something truly as inexplicable as it is exotic: a bizarre internal obsession by the Agency with three “gods” and “goddesses,” reaching across the millennia directly from ancient Egypt - Isis, Osiris and Horus.

It is these same three Egyptian gods (whose mythic story has been documented by many Egyptologists and authors, including Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, in The Hiram Key) that are also key to understanding the history of the Masonic Order.

As we shall show, it is this same mythology that is also at the heart of the systems of the NASA “Magicians” and Nazis as well. This ritual Egyptian symbolism, secretly practiced by NASA throughout these past five decades, publicly shows up only in its repeating, blatant choices of simple mission patch designs.

For instance, if one looks at the official patch for the Apollo Program (below left), armed with our preceding “heads-up” regarding the bizarre NASA focus on all things “Egyptian,” it becomes elemental to match the “A” (for “Apollo”) as an actual stand-in for “Asar” - the Egyptian designation for “Osiris.”

This successful decoding of the hidden Egyptian meaning of the Apollo patch is redundantly confirmed - because “Asar/Osiris” is none other than the familiar Greek constellation of “Orion” - which is, of course, the background stellar constellation on the patch itself.

In case you think such ritual symbolism is some kind of temporary historical aberration, confined only to the Apollo Program and the 1960s, think again; when NASA recently selected a patch design for its new “CEV” spacecraft, which will eventually replace the Shuttle - and ultimately take American astronauts back to the Moon, look what NASA curiously picked again (below right).

Later in this book, we shall present a documented history of these continuing, inexplicable “secret society” manipulations inside NASA - not only of its personnel, but also of its major policies - which, in fact, has been going on since its Congressional formation, and all with this inexplicable “Egyptian focus.”

We will also investigate the purposes behind these apparently repeating rituals and identify the key players who have quietly made them happen.

You will also read more, in due course, regarding the accumulated evidence of widespread corruption, usurpation of the law and petty rivalries within the Agency - that have allowed these irrational religious practices to continue unabated.

The evidence that NASA is something other than the benevolent civilian science institution it pretends to be, is as overwhelming now as it is disturbing.

In the years following JFK’s assassination, when Apollo finally became an engineering reality, only nine successful Apollo missions to and from the Moon were carried out; only six of those were actually lunar landings. Then (apparently), a critical number and type of lunar artifacts was successfully identified, and returned to Earth by the Apollo crews - at which point the entire Apollo Program was abruptly terminated with Apollo 17.
