Why did the leading space powers of the USSR and the USA suddenly lose interest in the Moon? Either they built grandiose plans for its development, even colonization, then for tens of years - silence.
This happens when everything is known and there is no point in continuing the study, or when the results are so unexpected that the work goes into the secrecy phase. The first option is doubtful: there are no fewer questions related to the Moon. But here's the second …
Signs of the lunar mind?
In 1977, a book by a certain J. Leonard was published in Great Britain under the title "There is someone else on our moon" and with the subtitle "Amazing facts of intelligent life on the moon are discovered."
An excavator the size of a city on the moon! This is just one of the author's stunning revelations. According to him, only a very narrow circle of specialists knew about the powerful mechanical devices that American astronauts saw working in the craters of the moon, about bridges, viaducts, domed structures and other structures on the lunar surface.
Who this J. Leonard is is unknown. In any case, this is a person who had access to extensive, including top-secret information. He was able to talk with many officials from NASA, study thousands of photographs, listen to hours of tape recording of conversations with astronauts.
Thirty-five photographs (each with a NASA code number), dozens of detailed sketches made, according to the author, from high-quality large-format photographs, 230 pages of text listing facts and documents, statements by NASA specialists and an extensive bibliography lead to a stunning conclusion: NASA and many scientists with a world name have long known that signs of intelligent life have been found on the moon!

Disinformation? But then the reaction to this publication is striking. No denials
no comments, no any discussion. Are the pictures fake? But the author in the appendix gives the address where you can get copies of them.
Maybe NASA orchestrated the information leak? Here is the hypothesis of J. Leonard himself: “I'm starting to think that NASA presents these photographs with the position:“Here they are. If you - the public and the scientific community - are not too interested or blind to see these oddities, this is your problem. We have no funds in the budget for your education."
Few people knew about Leonard's book. Its circulation, according to competent people, immediately disappeared from store shelves. The second edition came out in 1978 - the same result. There were only copies accidentally exported abroad, including in the USSR. But it looks like the Moor did his job. In 1981, a book was published in the USA ("Alien Bases on the Moon" by Fred Steckling), full of facts and photos from NASA, capturing UFOs and other phenomena on the Moon and in its vicinity. In 1992, a book of similar content was published in Japan.
Mysterious light
“Wow !!! - Astronaut Harrison Schmitt, the pilot of the Apollo 17 lunar module (December 7-19, 1972) could not contain his surprise already on the first revolution around the Moon. "I just saw a flash on the lunar surface!.. A bright small flash on the northern edge of Grimaldi Crater … where there was only a narrow strip of light." (It was at this point that Apollo 16 pilot Ken Mattingly saw a flash of bright light).
The next day it was the turn of the other pilot, Ronald Evans, to be surprised: “I would never have believed it! I am right above the edge of the East Sea. I just saw a bright flash with my own eyes! Right at the end of the furrow …"
Dr. Farouk El-Baz, one of the leading authorities on the physical and geological nature of the Moon, a consultant and assistant to many American astronauts, commented on these observations: “There is no doubt that this is something grandiose: these are not comets, and this is NOT NATURAL. !"
Strange light phenomena on the lunar disk have been noticed for a long time. Flares, luminous stripes, moving light spots have been described in detail by researchers of previous centuries. More than 900 recorded cases date back to the 16th century alone.
The library of the Royal Astronomical Society contains information about strange light spots and fluctuations in light on the moon. By April 1871, 1,600 such cases were recorded in Plato alone. Observers saw shimmering blue light, or a cluster of specks of light that looked like bright needle-like dots coming together. V. Herschel (1738-1822), the founder of stellar astronomy, who discovered the planet Uranus and several satellites of Saturn and Uranus, recorded about 150 very bright spots on the surface of the Moon during a total eclipse.
Arched white sparkling dots, tiny dots and streaks of light are especially common in the Sea of Crises. Sometimes these are the smallest dots and strips of light, connected into a shape, sometimes periodically flashing light, similar to intelligent signals.
The attention of astronomers has long been attracted by the strange light in the craters Aristarchus and Plato. Bright red flashes in the area of Aristarchus crater sometimes cover areas of several kilometers and are more often observed over domed structures. Moving objects are observed in the Sea of Tranquility. In 1964, light or dark spots were seen there at least four times, mixed for tens and even hundreds of kilometers in a few hours.
On September 11, 1967, for 8-9 seconds, Canadian researchers observed how a dark rectangular spot with purple edges moved from west to east over the Sea of Tranquility. It was clearly visible until it entered the night area.
After 13 minutes, a flash of yellow light was recorded in the direction of the spot near the Sabin crater. And, apparently, it was no coincidence that after a year and a half, Apollo -! 1 . The study of the lunar soil at the landing site surprised specialists. The ground was melted by a light source 100 times brighter than the Sun. Experts believe that the radiation source was at a low altitude above the moon. But these are not the Apollo lander engines.
In 1968, NASA published a summary of the observations in the Chronological Catalog of Lunar Events. Among 579 phenomena were named: moving luminous objects; colored trenches lengthening at a speed of 6 km / h; giant domes that change their color; a large luminous object, the so-called "Maltese Cross", observed on November 26, 1956; geometric figures; disappearing craters and other things that have not found an explanation. The catalog also records the speed of movement of the mentioned spots in the Sea of Tranquility - from 32 to 80 km / h.
Logic suggests that the overwhelming majority of lunar phenomena simply remain outside our field of vision. After all, there is also the other side of the moon.
Something sits down, something flies
In the summer of 1955, V. Yaremenko from Odessa examined "countless lunar craters, mountains and seas" through a homemade telescope. "Above the disk, parallel to its edge, at a distance of about 0.2 lunar radius, a luminous body flew, similar to a third-magnitude star in ordinary observation," he recalls. - Having flown a third of the circle (it took 4-5 seconds), the body descended on a steep trajectory onto the lunar surface. It was big enough and … manageable! And artificial satellites did not exist in those years …"
Here are V. Luchko's observations from Lvov (March 31, 1983): “About 2 hours 30 minutes. on a clean, almost complete disc of the Moon … a rather large dark body is seen, quickly and evenly passing along a slightly curved trajectory through the northwestern part of the disc in the direction from west to east. His path took no more than a second. After a short period of time, exactly the same (or the same) body again crossed the moon with the same speed and in the same direction …”That same night Luchko managed to notice six appearances of the same bodies (or the same). "In all cases it was a relatively large, dark, even black body of irregular shape, perfectly distinguishable against the background of the lunar disk."
Our television has repeatedly played a video of a shadow moving across the surface of the moon, which was made by a Japanese amateur astronomer. If this is not a hoax, then the size of the shadow (about 20 km in diameter) and the tremendous speed of movement (about 400 km in 2 seconds) suggest a high technical level of the object that left it.
On March 15, 1992, astronomer E. Arsyukhin observed a rapid zigzag flight over the Moon of a black square body about 5 km in size. During the observation period, the object flew about 500 km at the same speed as the "Japanese" - 200 km / s.
Astronautics gave a new impetus to the study of lunar mysteries. Photos of the moon taken from spacecraft, and information obtained during flights and landings on the moon, forced NASA to seriously tackle the Earth satellite. A special program was created to study LTP ("random phenomena on the moon", Russian abbreviation - LF, lunar phenomena). Experienced public observers were involved in the program. The research results are not known to the general public.
Only hypotheses
Studying pictures from J. Leonard's book, O. A. Isaeva identified zones with an increased energy background on the lunar surface and came close to determining the chemical composition of the sources of anomalous radiation. There is reason to believe that these objects contain technetium. This radioactive element, which is promising for nuclear power, was artificially obtained on Earth only in 1937; it does not occur naturally in nature.
Various theories and hypotheses have been used to explain light LFs. They tried to explain them by flashes in the eyes of astronauts, which happen when cosmic particles hit the brain or eyeball. However, light phenomena are also observed by earthly researchers who are not subject to such a cosmic bombardment. In addition, flares from cosmic particles are described as instantaneous, and even many hours of glow or periodic flickering in the same place were observed on the Moon.
They try to explain the flares on the moon by striking meteorites against rocks and rocks. However, this can only explain occasional short-term and one-time effects. M. Jessup, mathematician and astronomer, who seriously substantiated the connection between UFOs and the Moon, noted that both in the 18th and 19th centuries on the Moon during
spots of light were observed for hours or longer. The moon sparkled, sparkled, flashed. And the probability of two meteorites hitting the same place in a relatively short period is negligible.
It was suggested that at one time on the Moon, gases could get under the uncooled lava flows, but now they are released. But gases that spontaneously emit in nature, as a rule, do not have color, rhythm, shape and size. And all this is on the moon. It was not possible to associate the glow of the "gases" with the effect of the sun's ultraviolet rays. Glows are also observed when the Sun does not illuminate the lunar surface.
It has been hypothesized that the Earth's magnetic tail accelerates solar particles that bombard the Moon, causing flares and luminescent excitations. But in this case, the glow and flares would not be tied for centuries to certain areas on the Moon (there are 90 of them!).
The volcanic hypothesis contradicts the official NASA concept that our satellite is a relatively dead planet. In addition, tremors typical of an eruption would have been recorded by a network of seismographs mounted on the moon. However, they were silent even on April 25, 1972, when a "light fountain" was recorded in the area of the craters Aristarchus and Herodotus, which at a speed of 1.35 km / s reached a height of 162 km, shifted to the side by 60 km and dissolved.
In 1992, the American astronomer M. Ken-tone reported on strange tremors on the Moon: “Their strength … reaches 12-14 points on the Richter scale. If this process continues for another six months, the Moon will burst and scatter into two halves … Two moons can cause people a state of frustration, mental split, group madness. The reaction of the animal world, where instincts prevail, is unpredictable …"
Many scientists admitted that tremors on the moon were something new in scientific observation, but did not believe that the moon could split. And they were right.
