Former U.S. Astronaut Says We Are Not Alone

Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon, says aliens have been visiting the earth for the past sixty years.

The aliens have landed.

Thus declared Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell on Saturday to more than 200 admirers.

"A few insiders know the truth . . . and are studying the bodies that have been discovered," said Mitchell, who was the sixth man to walk on the moon.

[...]

Besides aliens, Mitchell talked about being freed of prostate cancer during a healing ceremony and his epiphany while returning from the moon.

From an interview Mitchell had with the St. Petersburg times in 2004...




There was a time when American astronauts were thought to be heroes.  Can you imagine, back in the sixties, what it must have felt like to be the ultimate adventurer?  Then you are just tossed aside and forgotten.  Is this just a way to gain attention?  Edgar Mitchell has quite an interesting life.  Frankly, I believe that if Dr. Mitchell were going to be an astronaut today, he would not pass the testing beforehand...if you know what I mean.



 


 

Cover Your Heads! (Just In Case)

Good news!

The story from January, about the Spy Satellite that is supposed to fall from the sky in March; well it looks like the U.S. is here to save the day.

Our Navy is planning to shoot down the broken satellite, according to the Pentagon.

Officials said we would most likely shoot it down before it re-enters the atmosphere, using a special missile modified for the task.

The last time the U.S. attempted to do such a thing was 20 years ago. 

China did the same sort of thing just last year.

If the mission should fail, the satellite would fall to earth as anticipated.

Read the story from the International Herald Tribune

Remember Skylab?

Do you know where you were when it fell in 1979?

I remember where I was.

There was so much hype about Skylab falling...

No one was sure where it would fall.

For some reason I was up visiting the Cave of the Mounds.

Don't know if that was on purpose. 

I do love looking at caves.

I remember they were selling novelty spray cans of Skylab repellent!

Guess what?

There's a new kid in town....

P.S.

An Australian municipality, the Shire of Esperance, fined the United States $400 for littering when Skylab fell.  In 2004, the History Channel documentary "History Rocks" stated, in an episode covering major events of 1979, that this fine has never been paid.
