New flights to the Moon … spaceships with huge Saturn launch vehicles were already prepared for them, crews were completed and new landing sites on the lunar surface were selected.
And suddenly all flights to the moon under the Apollo program, in which they invested 25 billion dollars, were unexpectedly stopped without any convincing explanation, and the 5 huge Saturn launch vehicles prepared for this were dismantled. Our exploration of the Moon with the help of lunar rovers was also unexpectedly cut short.
The sudden adoption of such a decision can only be explained by the fact that the American astronauts, apparently, encountered something very important on the moon, which caused them anxiety. Maybe it was some kind of unexpected for them manifestations of the activities of an extraterrestrial civilization, or …
1996, March 21 - NASA announced that there is a serious reason to talk about the presence of alien artificial objects and structures on the Moon. The head of the lunar program, Wernher von Braun, commenting on its end, said that powerful extraterrestrial forces are present on the Earth's satellite, which he has no right to talk about.
Disasters in space
Some evil fate interfered with flights to the moon. 1958, June 25 - the first launch from the Soviet Baikonur cosmodrome took place. However, the rocket for some reason was unable to go into space. The Soviet press, and then Russia, has not yet published anything about that historical event. And if it were not for the military radars of the West, we would still believe that Luna-1 was in fact the first.
1958, August 17 - The second attempt was made by the Americans. The Tor-Able missile exploded after 77 seconds. after the start. The same thing happened with the Soviet rocket, which launched on September 23 and lasted 92 seconds in flight.

The next move was made by the Americans on October 11. Pioneer 1 was able to break away from the launch pad and go into space, but was able to fly only a third of the way to the Moon and crashed to Earth. Despite desperate radio commands from Hawaii, the probe's braking engines, for some unknown reason, did not turn on.
The flight of Pioneer-2 on November 8 was even worse and lasted only 45 minutes. The Soviet Union launched a rocket to the Moon on December 4, but it exploded again after 245 seconds of flight. Two days later it was the turn of the Americans, but Pioneer-3 again could not overcome even a third of the way to the Moon, falling to Earth.
Saturn-5.
Finally, Luna 1 was able to surprise the world. The newspaper Pravda, dated January 12, 1959, reported: "On January 2, 1959, the USSR successfully launched a space rocket towards the Moon." But, despite the "precise" launching of the rocket to the Moon, something amazing happens - the rocket flies far from the Moon. Only 40 years later, an explanation of those events appeared in the open press: "The last stage of the launch vehicle separated from the station when the second space velocity was reached, but the engine turned off later than the appointed time, which forced the automatic interplanetary station to switch to an off-design trajectory."
The same thing happened with Luna-4. Despite the movement "along a trajectory close to the calculated one," the station "passed over the lunar surface at a distance of 8500 km."
1959, March 3 - The American Pioneer 4 was also able to approach the Moon only up to 60,000 km. The dark tradition was continued by three Soviet lunar rockets launched on April 12, 15 and 16, 1960. Atlas Able 5 crashed to Earth on September 25th. The launch of the next rocket to the Moon on December 15, 1960 also ended in failure: Atlas-Able-5V exploded 70 seconds later. flight. "Ranger-1" after a week-long flight crashed to Earth, "Ranger-3" flew past the target. Although Ranger 4 was able to reach the moon, it was unable to transmit a single image of the lunar surface. The launch of the Ranger-5 also ended unsuccessfully.
The Americans prepared the flight of the next Ranger-6 with particular care. Sky and Telescope magazine reported: “Over the past 14 minutes. flight, 6 television cameras were to transmit detailed images of the moon to Earth. But the video signals weren't coming from the Ranger. The first such images of the lunar surface were obtained only with the launch of the Ranger-7, 3 years after the launch of the first spacecraft of this series.
And Soviet missiles were chased by failures. From January 4, 1963 to December 3, 1965, 14 attempts were made in the Soviet Union to send probes to the Moon. They were all unsuccessful. Luna's "evil" disposition also manifested itself after the triumph of Luna-9. In 1966-1976, 9 Soviet lunar stations did not even go into geocentric orbit. Luna 15 was supposed to be a few hours ahead of American competitors from Apollo 11 and deprive them of their priority in delivering the first samples of lunar soil. But instead of a soft landing, the station crashed. The same fate befell "Luna-18" and "Luna-23".
The Americans also suffered heavy casualties. Their Explorer-33 was unable to enter the selenocentric orbit. Surveyor 2 crashed on the moon. Station Surveyor 4 mysteriously fell silent two and a half minutes before soft landing and crashed. The accident on board Apollo 13, which disrupted the flight program, is well known. Imperfection of old space technology? However, a mysterious story also happened with the rather simple newest Japanese probe "Hagoromo" - the first spacecraft of earthlings launched into selenocentric orbit after a 14-year hiatus. After entering the circumlunar orbit on March 19, 1990, radio communication with "Hagoromo" could not be established. Communication was also lost with the next US probe, Clementine, which operated in orbit around the Moon in 1994.
Aliens on the moon
Interesting information about the mysterious phenomena on the moon is given in the books by F. Steckling "We have discovered alien bases on the moon" and D. Leonard "Someone else is on our moon", as well as in the book of professor from Japan K. Konno. The authors of these books were able to access some of the unpublished materials from NASA, listened to hours of tape recordings of conversations with astronauts and studied thousands of photographs they took.
It turned out that in some photographs, chains of pulsating lights moving over the lunar surface and movements of groups of lights in formation in the form of a triangle, square, etc. were captured.
However, more impressive are the clear photos of huge unknown objects of cylindrical or circular shape, flying or hovering over the lunar surface at low altitude, which were taken by the crews of the Apollo spacecraft.
The photograph taken by the Apollo 16 crew shows a huge cylindrical object with pointed ends flying over the lunar crater.
Lunar anomalies
A surprising circumstance becomes clear if you look at the situation in general terms. For all the time, 100 attempts were made to send spacecraft from Earth to the Moon. Of these, only in 44% of cases the flight program was basically completed. And during flights to much more distant Venus, despite its clouds of sulfuric, hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids and terrible conditions on the surface (temperatures up to +500 ° C, pressure of about a hundred atmospheres), 67% of launches out of 33 were crowned with success. As you can see, flights to the nearest atmosphereless night star are noticeably more dangerous than to a distant "hellish" planet! Paradox…
1866 - something amazing happened - one of the largest lunar craters suddenly changed its appearance. Another strange event happened in 1874. An astronomer from the Czech Republic, Shafarik, observed for some time the movement of a luminous object along the disk of the moon, which soon flew away. A year after this observation, astronomer Schroeter also noticed a luminous object on the Moon that was moving in a northward direction, and then noticed a second object of the same that appeared in the south. Schroeter even calculated the speed of their movement - 110 km / h. Similar observations of anomalous phenomena, strange objects have increased many times today.
Interestingly, some of the lunar probe crashes were preceded by mysterious incidents on the moon. They could well interest Sherlock Holmes. For example, on July 17, 1967, less than an hour before Surveyor 4 landed, a cloud of dust was seen in the center of Agrippa crater. The station was descending only 390 km from the strange formation. And at the most crucial moment, two and a half minutes before landing, radio communication with Surveyor-4 ceased … According to the American Lunar Society, during the flight of the Hagoromo probe, a mysterious dot shone on the dark side of the Moon for at least half an hour. Then something flared up in the crater Aristarchus, and in the Gassendi circus, an ominous orange light burned. The device was able to enter the selenocentric orbit, but radio communication with it could not be established.
A strange fuss on our satellite accompanied other flights. 1967, September 11 - 27 observers watched the landing of Surveyor 5 in the Sea of Tranquility. It was seen as in 14 min. before landing over the Sea from east to west 8-9 sec. a dark rectangular spot was moving.
Apollo lunar landing module on the Moon.
Another such example is the flight of Apollo 16. During the landing of astronauts on the moon, observers from Earth twice noticed a mysterious increase in the brightness of the Censorin crater, located not far from the landing site. 2 days before the departure of the expedition to Earth, a column of light appeared north-west of the crater Aristarchus, increasing the height at a speed of 1.35 km / s. Having reached an altitude of 162 km, the pillar shifted 60 km from the starting point and blurred, having existed for about 3 minutes.
Four successful images of this phenomenon were obtained at the West German Passau Observatory. But, lunar seismometers did not notice any noticeable shaking of the soil at that time. It turns out that it was not an eruption of gases or a fall of a meteorite - something unknown threw a column of dust towards the stars.
It is curious that four days before the appearance of the "fountain of light" astronaut T. Mattingly, flying around the dark side of the moon, was able to notice a bright flash of light on the surface covered with darkness at night. And it was not a meteorite - the lunar seismometers were silent. This kind of phenomenon was reported from lunar orbit by a member of the Apollo 17 crew X. Schmitt on December 10, 1972. “I just saw a flash on the lunar surface! She was north of Grimaldi. " A day later, not far from that place, Yu. Cernan transferred it to Earth. “I just looked down and saw a flash of light myself. Right at the end of the furrow in the east of the East Sea. " Could it be cosmic ray flares? But such Cherenkov radiation of heavy ions inside the eyeball cannot be focused to a point. In addition, point flashes of light in those areas were repeatedly noticed from the Earth …
During the Apollo 11 flyby of the Moon, astronauts N. Armstrong and E. Aldrin witnessed a mysterious night glow on the rim of Aristarchus crater. The glow was first spotted from Earth by the Moon Tracking Service. “There is an area that is significantly more illuminated than the surroundings. It is exactly like that - it seems that it fluoresces a little,”N. Armstrong confirmed from a selenocentric orbit. "At least there is one crater ridge that seems to be more illuminated than others … I'm not sure if I actually recognize any glow, but it is definitely brighter than anything nearby," E. Aldrin honestly reported. …
It should be noted and some fuss that took place in the Sea of Tranquility near the crash site of "Ranger-6", and did not transmit an image of the surface of the moon.
So, something strange is happening on the satellite of the Earth. Mysterious flashes, lights, clouds would look harmless if not for the ominous statistics of lunar probe accidents. In one of the scientific institutions of the USSR, at one time, even closed studies of the influence of short-term lunar phenomena on space technology were carried out.
Of course, the Moon is not an object of national property, as written in the international treaty "On the principles of activities of states in the exploration and use of outer space, including the Moon and other celestial bodies" (1967). But where is the guarantee that our neighbors in the Galaxy think the same?
