Strangely or rather not strangely I guess never hit anything, which would make the news. Why? Because then questions would have to be answered and people would be held accountable for whatever is going on up there.
That being said it is very interesting that those programs, the MOL and Almaz, seemed to work in lockstep. Different approaches but the same end goal and that is a little strange unless it was part of a larger planned defense or even offense.
Space War? That’s NUTS! Maybe not…
There’s another reason I think this, or rather two reasons really. The first being a rather strange incident which occurred in the late 1990s involving a UFO crash near Livermore, California. We had gotten a call into Ground Zero and Clyde had alerted me to check it out that an object had crashed nearby in Tracy, California.
The object was seen to streak across the sky and crash near a secret test facility outside Tracy. Following the crash a massive tire fire had started and the entire area was sealed off. For more information I would refer you to the UFO Hunters episode: UFO Surveillance.
Right after the crash we received a fax. It seems like that always happens! Well the fax had said a object had come in over the Pacific Ocean and two F-18s were scrambled from near by NAS Lemoore to shoot it down over the Pacific Ocean and that it had been damaged by a KKV—Kinetic Kill Vehicle.
Reports also stated that the object was on fire already when it got to Livermore and it was apparently hit by a laser. Someone really wanted that thing destroyed. But one thing is for certain, that event did trigger a “Moondust” or “BlueFly” operation and witnesses reported seeing large numbers of trucks coming out of there with tarps and stuff under the tarps.
It is also important to point out that once the incident happened and the are was sealed, recovery operations as well as firefighting were performed by a special team from Livermore’s top secret weapons lab.
KKV? Well it turned out that we do have a KKV program called Project Thor, and the system in orbit is called “Thor’s Hammer” a system, which uses tungsten rods as kinetic energy, weapons. Maybe the object had been hit in orbit by one of these “Rods from God” and was already damaged by the time the F-18s were sent to take it out.
The other reason why I’m starting to wonder if we did or do have a bit of a war in space going on is the work of Ed Grimsely. Grimsey has shot video and has reported over the last decade about seeing space battles replete with lasers taking place in orbit. Grimsley can reproduce this feat at will, but what is fighting up there?
It could be the Russians vs. NATO, but I kind of doubt that especially now. It doesn’t make sense to me, but it also doesn’t make sense that it’s alien.
One thing is certain: if these things are accurate then at a minimum its one breakaway civilization versus another. Be they Nazi or whatever.
The case is that they are fighting, and there is a lot of hardware up there to help the fight. There is also footage, and STS48 is only one example but there are others.
The interesting thing to me is that whoever is fighting they are keeping a low profile and that is the next part we need to figure out. Who is fighting up there? Maybe it’s the Nazis from Base 211 darting across our skies in the latest Haunebu? That is as reasonable as any other idea.
One thing is for sure, it certainly makes things like Space Warden, SDI, and Solar Warden suddenly make sense in the larger scope. If there was an unsanctioned group up there and the Russians and Americans were working together then the synchronized timing would make a lot of sense to me.
There is a big plan, multinational plan to use Space Warden, Solar Warden, SDI and everything else we can think of to isolate and unitize the problem. That’s good planning, and good execution.

WEAPONS IN ORBIT—ARMING THE HIGH FRONTIER
Many years ago I was introduced to the amazing videos of Ed Grimsley, who at the time was discussing the idea that UFOs were engaging in some level of extra-atmospheric combat. At the time I dismissed the idea, thinking if a alien ship had come all this way that alien ship would posses enough destructive power to render our defensive apparatus null and void and simply blow anything we could throw at it out of the sky.
Now many years later, and especially given recent research into the Secret Space Program as well as the actual composition of battle platforms in space that maybe Grimsley was on to something. He was on to something but I suspect it was not aliens duking it out with earthmen but instead a space war between a breakaway civilization and its earthly brethren.
There are a couple of alternatives here. It could be the United States vs. the Russians in a battle royale but I suspect not, because a hot war in space should translate into a VERY hot war down here on earth. Instead I have come to believe that the battle is between a Nazi-derived breakaway civilization and the combined governments of NATO and the Russian Federation possibly even China as well.
So why do I believe this? I know it sounds fairly far fetched but to answer that we need to take a small course in “Star Wars” both from a US perspective as well as a Russian perspective. We also need to balance that against Gary McKinnon’s findings and the Nazi UFO research that has been of the forefront in my mind the last few years.
SPACE WEAPONS:
Glittering C-Beams off the Taunhauser Gate
Since the 1950s both groups have embarked on a long range and costly journey to build weapons systems in space. On the surface these programs were put in place to destroy or prevent destruction. Billions of dollars have been spent on both sides to do some very interesting research, some of which will shock you.
Project Thor—Project Thor or Thor’s Hammer is a space based defense system utilizing tungsten rods to create kinetic energy weapons. On the surface of it Thor was designed to hit Soviet installations and military forces using a very lethal but non-nuclear system. In reality as quick as Thor can be used to target the surface of the Earth it could also be rotated to fire these rods out into space at slow moving targets or with the proper trajectory it could be fired against larger bodies like the Moon or even Mars, theoretically.
Project SeeSaw—Project SeeSaw was initiated by the JASON group to build particle beam weapons. The project started in the late 1960s and later was publicly abandoned, though it did find some success. SeeSaw falling out of public view may have been to deflect its true purpose. Once implemented as part of the larger SDI program, SeeSaw would have give us not only aircraft mounted particle beams but also orbiting defense platforms.
Project Sipapu—This was originally an Army project to build land based particle beam weapons. This is the kind of weapons system that could be deployed to next generation fighting units on both a handheld basis or via modifying tanks to carry the weapon system. Its objective was to build space based weapons systems.
The “Chair Heritage” Program—Little is known about Chair Heritage outside of it being a Navy project to build particle beam weapons for ships.
Brilliant Pebbles—Brilliant pebbles was a stroke of genius. The essential theory behind Brilliant Pebbles was to build a delivery system which could fire a canister of high velocity pellets at a target. These pellets or pebbles traveling at a high rate of speed would effectively shred the target in a cloud of kinetic energy weapons. It is the same principle as Thor but on a smaller scale.
Space Warden—The information about this Solar Warden comes to us from a whistle blower who called into an interview I was a part of on the Ground Zero radio show. He stated that in the 1970s he had worked, as an engineer, on a highly secret (protected by Federal Marshals) program to build a constellation of three satellites. The first two satellites would be parked in an equatorial orbit and use a particle beam to hit targets (possibly the logical outcome of SeeSaw) while the third satellite was an autonomous hunter killer satellite that would patrol the skies. The whistleblower went on to say that the system was deployed with the rest of the SDI system successfully in the 1980s.
Solar Warden—This is the
infamous program stumbled upon by hacker Gary McKinnon which described off world ships, troops and crews which functioned as a space fleet. He located manifests, logs and registers of the ships including some rather odd ship names. McKinnon’s findings are controversial but I believe they past the sniff test for many reasons, but one of which is the lengths the United States government went to in order to attempt to try him. They wanted him gone, and they worked hard at it. The other reason I believe there may be some validity to the claims is around what he found. Much of what he found appears to be logistical in nature and while secret probably carried a lower secrecy rating then say specifications of the ships. It should all be highly classified but one would suspect that logistical data would be a little lower and probably was the cause of the breech.
MANNED BATTLE PLATFORMS:
Have Space Canon, uh I Mean Particle Canon, Will Travel
Ok so at this point we can see starting in the late 1950s there was an aggressive line of research coming out of the military to build space based weapons. At the same time the military, both Soviet and American, embarked on a manned battle platform strategy.
We’ll never know how successful the programs were, but conventionally we are told the plans were never completed or the carcass of the battle station was un-orbited and burned. I can understand the logic of believing the conventional but I think in this case and given what we’ve seen over time I think there is a case which can be made that at some level these stations were built and are up there, or maybe they have been superseded by automated defense systems. We do need to remember that DARPA is almost 50 years ahead of us here in the conventional world.
So what did they come up with?
The Manned Observation Laboratory (The MOL)— United States Air Force project to build and later deploy a manned battle station equipped with a laser. The two man crew, both Air Force astronauts, and yes the USAF does have its own astronaut corps, were designated to spend three to six months onboard. Armed with a laser canon, or possibly a particle cannon, their mission ostensibly was to be ready to attack then Soviet space based platforms or space planes (maybe even UFOs?).
The Almaz—The Almaz was the Soviet equivalent to the MOL. It was indeed launched and crewed for sometime and was armed with a 23mm cannon. The cannon was actually a massive engineering feat since the designers actually had to place rockets on the sides of the Almaz to counter act the force of the firing. Cosmonauts who served on the Almaz report that it was quite an adventure to fire the canon and we know that it was indeed fired several times.
Personal conversations I’ve had with several people who worked on the Soviet space program indicate that there were possibly up to three Almaz stations in orbit and they were fully equipped to attack if ordered. Were there MOLs in orbit? Yes there was at least one, and the crew was carried up to it via a Gemini-B launch vehicle.
But what about SkyLab?
There are rumors that Skylab was armed as well but I have seen no concrete evidence of it, but that being said it stands to reason that it could have been. It would make since especially considering the compositions of the crew, all military, and the proximity of the Skylab program and the ending of the MOL program.
Now the 2 billion dollar question: What is up there now?
We’ve heard over time from various researchers, including Bill Birnes who is definitely in the know, that there are stations in geosynchronous orbit over key sites.
Birnes has maintained for some time there is a station locked over Nellis AFB. Which would make sense since there is a significant amount of research going on at Area 51 to this end and if the stations or to defend against an outside threat (i.e. Nazis) then it would make sense to park them in a stationary orbit over major defense facilities or population centers. Given the technology today it also would not be beyond the pale to expect crew changes, a la Solar Warden, were being done via a next generation spacecraft.
The MOL and Almaz were very real projects with paper trails so we do indeed know both of these battle stations were placed in orbit. I think it is logical to assume others could have been built in orbit or on the Moon and ferried over. The will was there as was the funding.

MOON BASES, MARS BASES AND THE GREAT BEYOND
The 1960s was a turbulent time, unpopular wars, social unrest and apparently a vigorous space weapons program so it should not surprise us that even while the MOL was being operated both the Army and Air Force had also come up with plans to occupy the Moon. The Soviets had a program as well.
Project Horizon
A US Army project to build a Moon base by 1967. The base would have offensive and defense capabilities as was to be staffed by a crew of over 200 specially trained Army soldier/astronauts by 1965. Again as we have seen this project was publicly killed off but that doesn’t mean it didn’t enter the special access projects realm where there is lots of money and no oversight.
Officially Project Horizon was a study to determine the feasibility of constructing a military base on the Moon.
On June 8, 1959, an internal team at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency (ABMA) tasked with researching Horizon, produced a report entitled “Project Horizon, A U.S. Army Study for the Establishment of a Lunar Military Outpost.”
The permanent outpost was predicted to cost approximately $6 billion, an astronomical sum for 1959, and slated become operational by December 1966 with minimum operating team of 12 soldiers.
The United State’s favorite Nazi rocket scientist Wernher von Braun, who was head of ABMA by the way, appointed Heinz-Hermann Koelle (a Luftwaffe pilot during the war) to head the project team at the Redstone Arsenal.
Early plans called for over 140 separate Saturn A rocket launches to lift components for assembly in low Earth orbit at the site of a spent fuel tank which could be converted to a space station. From there a separate landing vehicle was to be used to land the 16 astronauts assigned to assemble the base to shepherd the components from LEO to the Moon.
Construction was slated to last from 1964 to April, 1966 when the base would be initially by a team of 12 men and defended by specially modified anti-personal minds as well as Davy Crockett rockets specially fitted with low yield Nuclear Warheads.
Once complete the basic building layout on the base would be based on the use of cylindrical metal tanks, 3.05 m in diameter and 6.10 m in length. Power was derived from two nuclear reactors, which would be located in deep pits to provide shielding and provide power for the operation of the early phase installation, and for the construction equipment used to build the permanent facility. Empty cargo and propellant containers could then be assembled and used for storage of bulk supplies, weapons, and essentials.
Communications would be handled via a parabolic antenna erected near the main quarters that would provide constant communications with Earth.
Due to the vehicle energy requirements to move to and from the base, Horizon had only limited locations to position the base. Because the installation had to be at 20 deg latitude/longitude on the Moon, from ~20° N, ~20° W to ~20° S, ~20° E. Within this designated area, the Horizon planners selected three sites:
• Sinus Aestuum, near the Eratosthenes crater
• Sinus Aestuum near Sinus Medii
• Mare Imbrium, north of Montes Apenninus
Project Lunex
Project Lunex was the Air Force equivalent to Project Horizon and called for a crew of 21 to live on this underground defense station at a cost of a mere $7.5 billion. The interesting part of this project is that it pre-dated the Apollo program and if operational may explain why the Moon Hoax theories swirl around even to this day.
The original 1958 plan for a manned lunar landing well prior to the Apollo Program, with the later final lunar plan in 1961 calling for a crew of 21 airman located in underground Air Force base on the Moon. The plan was to be complete by 1968 at a total cost of $7.5 billion. Interestingly the USAF plan was a total departure from the Apollo design and called for the Lunex v
ehicle to land with all astronauts on the surface versus the final Apollo design involving a separate ascent module thus leaving the command and service modules in lunar orbit with a single astronaut.
Interestingly the original Apollo plan was for direct ascent, similar to Lunex. The Lunex base was supposed to be online by the end of 1968 located in the Kepler crater.
Project Zvezda
Zvezda was a Soviet project similar to Horizon and included, at least at some level, conversations between the Soviet space program and our own to jointly operate and man the base. I think its safe to assume, given the direction of weapons development, that this base too was almost certainly armed.
The Zvesda moonbase project was originally ordered by the Soviet’s Chief Space Engineer Korolyov and assigned to Barmin’ s Spetcmash bureau. The project was officially named “DLB Lunar Base” in technical specifications and Zvezda in government documents. Unofficially, the project was referred to as Barmingrad (Barmin’s city) by its design team.
Under the plan, slated to begin in 1970, then later pushed 1980, Zvezda’s main habitation module would be the first component sent to the Moon. As building progressed, automatic spacecraft such as a Lunokhod rover, would be sent to the installation. Eventually followed by a large human crew as well as the final modules. For safety and security the habitation modules were to have been covered with regolith.
There was also discussion by the Zvezda designers that to aid in repositioning the base, all the habitation modules would been installed on wheel chassis, to create a movable train. Nuclear Reactor and Atomic Batteries supplied base energy.
THE MOON HOAX:
Was there a Hoax and if so why?
When we look at the Moon theory one thing has always jumped out at me. I don’t believe we fully faked the Moon landing. I know that will draw the ire of some but I think there is plenty of evidence we landed including the ability to use a telescope and see the junk left behind by the Apollo missions. Its true you can use a telescope and see the junk we left behind. Obviously these projects did not include the basic law of camping which is to leave it better then you found it.
