I just heard John Lear on CTC giving the following nonsensical claims:
(a) NASA has current mining ops. on moon. Basis for claim: a supposed 16X20 negative he got from NASA which is a raw photo from Lunar Orbiter 2. He sees obvious cranes, buildings, and a space port.
(b) "We" are currently working with aliens at this spaceport and this is being covered up by NASA
(c) NASA "air brushes" all moon /Mars photos to hide evidence of civilization.
(d) Apollo was a "cover" program and really we went to moon in 1962 and future years.
(e) the population of Mars is 600 million (aliens? humans?) and he thinks this because of a late "government insider"
(f) large mining equipment for this mission was built in Alabama but has now been moved to Antarctica to cover program with secrecy
(g) moon has a breathable atmosphere (did he really say this, it sounds SO ludicrous?)
(h) there was a 4th man who perished with White/Grissum/Chaffee in 1967 in Apollo 1 fire, but this man was part of the "secret astronaut" core and his identity had to be covered up
(i) antigravity propulsion to moon gets craft from south pole to moon in 1 hour (I'm not kidding, I think he really said that)
question 1 : BAUT people please debunk this point -by -point
question 2: what is different between this guy and Hoagland? they seem to be saying similar things.
