All language subtitles for Ancient Aliens S11E11 Space Station Moon

Some stories

attribute great powers
to the Moon.

It does have some effect on us.

Since the time

of the very first
Apollo Moon mission...

The Eagle has landed.

...researchers have pored over

photos of the Moon

looking for structures,

and they found some
unusual things.

Only 300 kilometers away

from where Apollo 11
ended up landing.

This area has undeniable
architecture

that looks like
what you would see

from obelisks.

Somebody built something

on the Moon
a long, long time ago.

And I don't think
it was earthlings.

The entire object

may be of artificial origin.

My question is,

who built the Moon?

Since the dawn of civilization,

mankind has credited
its origins to gods

and other visitors
from the stars.

What if it were true?

Did extraterrestrial beings

really help
to shape our history?

And if so...

might the answer be found
not on Earth but on the Moon?

Cape Canaveral,
Florida. February 8, 2016.

NASA and Lockheed Martin
project managers

announce preparations
are underway

for the Exploration Mission 1,

a manned Orion
spacecraft journey to the Moon.

The Chinese, Russian and Indian
space agencies follow suit,

unveiling their own manned
lunar exploration plans.

These missions would be the
first time humans traveled

beyond low earth orbit
since Apollo 17 in 1972.

But what could be the reason

for this renewed interest
in the Moon?

And just why has it taken
humanity so long to go back?

Liftoff.

We have a liftoff.

Liftoff on Apollo 11.

Tranquility Base here.

The Eagle has landed.

July 20, 1969.

Okay, Neil, we can see you

coming down the ladder now.

Over one billion
people worldwide are glued

to their television sets

as they watch the shadowy figure

of astronaut Neil Armstrong
slowly step off the ladder

of the Apollo 11 lunar module

onto the surface of the Moon.

That's one small step for man,

one giant leap for mankind.

The moment marks one
of the most important events

in the history of civilization.

It is the first time
a human being

has set foot on alien terrain.

Apollo 11 is what people
think of when you talk about

Apollo today and Neil Armstrong
setting foot on the Moon.

The Moon is roughly 220,000
miles away from the Earth.

Even the best telescopes
can't see what you can see

when you're just
standing on the surface.

Before we went to
the Moon, NASA was cautioned by

doomsday predictors
and different people.

People wonder what it would be
like on a place like that,

so different
from this place here.

The idea
of landing people on the Moon

has been in the imagination
long before the technology

was anywhere near
making it possible.

After all, to be on the Moon

is to step into
a mythological landscape.

The place of stories,
the place of wonder,

to step into the heavens,

and stand on ground of a kind

that is not Earth.

It was a huge
moment for the human spirit.

While it was Americans
that put a man on the Moon,

it was considered a victory
for all of humanity.

Suddenly, science fiction
became real

and it opened up
a new age of exploration.

I think that every journey

starts with a first step.

The Moon was our first step
into the universe,

into our solar system.

It is awesome to think
that already 50 years ago

we became extraterrestrials
on another planet.

The Moon has captivated

the imagination of humanity

since the dawn of civilization.

It is a quarter
the size of the Earth

and is by far
the most dominant celestial body

in the night sky.

It takes about 30
days to go round the Earth.

The Moon glows and that's not
because of any property

within the Moon.

It's reflecting the rays of the
Sun, which causes it to glow.

The reason that the
Moon has phases is that

the Earth blocks the light of
the Sun as the Moon moves

round the Earth,
so it incrementally

gets a little bit more
and a little bit more

of the Sun's rays.

The Moon's
importance is very great.

It leads to tides,
which helped life transition

from living in the ocean
to living on land.

It also stabilizes the Earth's
tilt relative to its orbit.

Without the Moon,
gravitational influences

can cause the poles of planets
to wander around

kind of drunkenly,
like a drunken sailor.

The Earth would have been a much
more chaotic place for life,

especially advanced life,
to develop

if it wasn't for the Moon.

While the Moon is
largely responsible

for allowing life
to flourish on Earth,

this celestial body itself
is inhospitable.

It has no breathable oxygen

and temperatures on the surface
reach extremes

from 253 degrees Fahrenheit,
when it's facing the Sun,

to -243 degrees in the shade.

It was a very serious
environment

'cause there's no oxygen.

So the astronauts,
once they were on the Moon,

they have to be completely
sealed.

Its surface gravity,
which is what really counts

if you're gonna go there, is
about a sixth of that on Earth,

which is why when you see
those grainy images

of the early astronauts,
they're sort of bouncing around,

and the Moon
has no atmosphere whatever.

The astronauts,
once they were on the Moon,

suddenly they were able
to look at the world

that they'd grown up on, the
Earth, from a different place.

They were able to
see all of mankind

in all its tininess
in the universe.

And that I know had
a very profound effect

on the astronaut.

Reaching the Moon was
such an unbelievable feat

that even to this day,
many people are convinced

the entire event was actually
staged in a Hollywood studio.

But ancient astronaut
theorists suggest,

not only did
we land on the Moon,

but what we found there was
more incredible than we know.

During the 1969
Apollo Moon mission,

after the landing there was
a very strange two-minute gap

in radio transmissions.

And what happened
during those two minutes

has been subject
to a lot of controversy.

Neil, this
is Houston, radio check, over.

Columbia, this is Houston, over.

According to scientist
and NASA researcher Otto Binder,

various ham radio operators
were able to intercept

secret communications
with Mission Control

that were not made public.

The astronauts apparently
talked about

seeing extraterrestrial
objects on the Moon,

including flying saucers parked
along the edge of a crater

within their view.

Now, the truth of it is,
is that each of the astronauts

had a separate medical channel.

That channel was not public
and it could have been

very easily used
to communicate information

that you didn't want to be heard

over the general public
transmissions.

What's really interesting
about that story, though,

is the fact that, within 30
minutes of the landing

on the Moon, that story was
circulating around NASA

that, "Hey, guess what.
They saw something

"on the rim of a crater.
They were all upset.

"They didn't know what to do.

They didn't know
if they should go out."

It is interesting
when you watch the feed

of when they
came back from the Moon.

They're not sitting there
jumping up and down for joy

and saying, "I had the most
incredible experience

in my life, I was on the Moon."

They're not saying that.

They look very solemn,
very depressed.

They're looking down.

They almost look like
they want to vomit,

that's how disturbed they look.

Could they have seen
something there

that they didn't
want to tell the public

because of the implications?

I believe that, uh...

what this country
set out to do was

something that was going
to be done sooner or later.

We find for the first time
that man has a...

the flexibility
or the option of, uh,

either walking this planet
or some other planet.

It's a-a beginning of a new age.

After Apollo 11, NASA would send

six more manned missions
to the Moon,

culminating with Apollo 17

in 1972.

One of the most
interesting questions

with regard to our interaction
with the Moon

is why we have never
gone back there again

since the Apollo missions,
and what else is very telling

is that although the USSR
at the time

was getting to be quite able
to send its own astronauts

to the Moon,
it never seems to have done so.

Could it be that
there were agencies

associated with the Moon?

Aliens or other beings

who had warned humanity
to stay away for some reason?

Is it possible
that the American astronauts

were not alone on the Moon?

Is that why after Apollo 17,

we never went back?

Some ancient astronaut theorists

propose an even more
incredible possibility,

that the Moon came
to orbit Earth not by chance,

but by design.

Humans have been mesmerized

by the Moon
since the dawn of man.

And although many theories
have been proposed,

scientists cannot say
with absolute certainty

how this celestial object
came into being.

When I was a student,
nobody really knew

where the Moon came from
because it's so relatively big.

Uh, this was a real problem.

And I think that there is
a tendency to think that

moons get somehow captured
by the parent planet.

If you've got one body here and
another body come, coming along,

it can't just get trapped
into orbit like that.

The difficulty there
is just basic physics,

and so this remained a puzzle

until about 20 years ago
when another theory came along,

and that is that

the protoEarth was very early
on in the history

of the solar system hit
by a Mars-sized body.

Hit obliquely,
that this Mars-sized body

plowed into the center
of the Earth

and became the Earth's core,
and a lot of

the outer material
got stripped off by this

gargantuan collision and
coalesced to form the Moon.

Now, they had to come up
with a very, uh, bizarre theory

for how the Moon came into being

because all the conventional
theories don't make any sense.

The best theory
of the Moon's formation

is a phantasmagorically

catastrophic collision
of two things, you know,

at just the right angle to form
this belt of debris

that then formed the Moon,
but the Moon,

its exact size is such that
it gives us total eclipses.

Its disc exactly covers the Sun.

And the chances of that
occurring are so,

literally, astronomically small,

it's, it's very disturbing.

The Sun's diameter is
400 times greater than the Moon

and coincidentally the Sun
also happens to be

nearly precisely
400 times further away.

This is the reason
that the Sun and the Moon

appear the same size
in the Earth's sky

and why we on Earth can
experience eclipses of the Sun.

It's just perfectly
in that orbit

to eclipse our Sun.

The odds of the Moon being
in that orbit accidentally

are a zillion to one.

So that right there is evidence
that our Moon

is in a perfect orbit
around our planet

that's not accidental.

In order to have a solar
eclipse the Moon has to be

exactly the size that it is,
which is 2,160 miles.

Not 2,161,

not 2,159,

but 2,160 miles at its equator.

And there are people out there
that actually think

that's a coincidence.

The fact is, is that
that is by design.

Throughout
our observable galaxy,

this relationship and others
have not been duplicated.

Other moons are
sizably smaller by comparison

to their mother planet.

Earth's satellite not only
orbits closer than it should

for its size, it is also the
only moon in the solar system

that has a near-perfect
circular orbit.

And no other lunar bodies
are known

to have such a stabilizing role

as the Moon has with the Earth.

Recent computer
simulations have shown

that without the Moon's
presence, the Earth's axis tilt

would be completely different
than it is today.

We might not even have seasons
as we know them presently.

Without the seasons

it could be very difficult
for life on Earth.

So the Moon is actually
performing

an incredible function.

It's life-sustaining.

Without it,
we might not be here.

There are so many peculiarities

about the way the Moon
has affected the Earth

that one might be forgiven
for believing

that there is
intelligence behind it,

that something made it that way.

The Moon is so strange,
so odd in terms of what we find

elsewhere in the solar system,
and particularly

in terms of what
it does for the Earth,

having made the Earth
into a haven for life,

that one feels obliged to ask
the question,

"Could such things have come
about by chance?"

Was it placed there
deliberately?

Was it engineered,
maybe by aliens?

And therefore,

is our whole existence
a planned event?

Ancient astronaut
theorists suggest

that the perfect size
and placement of the Moon

may not be the product
of mere chance,

but was engineered by
extraterrestrial beings

in Earth's prehistory.

As evidence,
they point to ancient accounts

that speak of a time before the
celestial object even existed.

Beginning in the 5th century BC,

Roman and Greek authors
wrote of a time

"before there was a moon in the
heavens."

Allusions to this can also be
found in the Hebrew Bible.

And there are Zulu legends
that say

the Moon was brought to Earth
hundreds of generations ago.

Wowane and Mpanku were the names
of two Zulu deities

from prehistory.

The Zulus have a legend
that it was they

who brought the Moon
into existence.

They supposedly did so
by stealing an egg

from a giant sky dragon,
hollowing out the center,

the yolk of the egg, and then
rolling the resultant planet

across the sky
to become the Moon.

And the reason that the Zulus
say the Moon was put there

was to keep an eye
on human beings.

The Zulu legend is
really interesting.

We first heard about it
from a Zulu shaman

named Credo Mutwa,
and he talked about the fact

that the Moon was towed in
to our orbit.

And when it did so,
it caused all kinds of floods

and cataclysms, and it changed
the axis of the planet.

And you can't help but wonder,

could the Moon
be an artificial satellite?

Could the Moon have come
from somewhere else

and is now used
as an observational base

for extraterrestrial beings?

Is it possible
that the Zulu legend is true,

as ancient astronaut
theorists suggest?

Was our Moon towed into place
in the remote past?

Perhaps further clues can be
found

by examining the scientific
evidence suggesting

that the Moon is,
in fact, hollow.

The surface
of the Moon is scarred

with tens of thousands of impact
craters of various sizes.

Scientists suggest
this is due to the fact

that there has never been
an atmosphere on the Moon

to help protect it from
bombardment by space debris.

There are no
natural erosive forces,

like wind or flowing water,
to affect its surface.

And there is little
geologic activity

to conceal damage done
throughout the Moon's history.

When you study the
distribution of craters,

you find the surface
is totally saturated,

that is, that there are craters
within craters within craters,

right down to
the smallest scale of size.

One of the things
that's really interesting

about lunar craters is that,
even though some of them

are very large and some of them
are very small,

they all seem
to have the same depth,

and that really shouldn't happen
on a planetary body.

There should be variation
in depth.

So why are the Moon's craters
so uniform?

It's really, really unusual
and it's really not explainable

in terms of conventional
or established geophysics.

Some of the craters on the Moon
are nowhere near similar

to what they should look like.

In fact, they are
incredibly wide craters,

and wherever the impact point
is, they're convex,

which means there's still the
bulge of the Moon,

so this doesn't make any sense.

It's likely that
there is something

under the lunar surface,
which is very resilient

and which is preventing craters
going any deeper than they do.

This could only really
be either much harder rock,

which it can't be
because of the mass of the Moon,

or alternatively a metal sphere
of some kind

which is preventing more damage.

Does the uniform depth
of the craters on the Moon

suggest some sort
of metallic barrier

underneath moon rock and dust?

But if so,

why wouldn't mainstream
scientists acknowledge this?

Ancient astronaut theorists
suggest that by doing so,

they might also have
to acknowledge

that the Moon may be hollow.

Yankee Clipper, Houston.

November 20, 1969.

During their ascent back to the
command module,

Commander Charles Conrad Jr.

and lunar module pilot Alan Bean

release the Apollo 12
launch vehicle

and crash it back to the Moon.

Apollo 12, Houston,
the LM is on its way down.

Roger.

Upon impact,

something very unexpected
happened.

The Moon was said to have
seismically reverberated

like a bell
for more than an hour.

With Apollo 12,
people refer to a crash.

It wasn't really a crash.

It was a aimed deorbit
of the rocket

used to lift off
the, uh, lunar module.

And the crew separated
the launch vehicle

and crashed it back
into the ground

right close to where they'd had
a seismograph

that they had installed
down there.

Well, it vibrated,
so it was kind of an early clue

as to how solid
was the surface of the Moon.

What was amazing
about this is that suddenly

the Moon began
to ring like a bell

and did so for nearly an hour.

Dr. Werner von Braun,
who was then the head of NASA,

decided that for Apollo 13
they were going to

intentionally crash a heavier
portion of the rocket

into the lunar surface.

And when they did this,

the Moon rang like a gong this
time for over three hours

into a depth of over 20 miles.

This was not expected
and it still puzzles

a lot of scientists today.

The inference
is that the Moon must be hollow

because the Moon is made
predominantly on the surface

of a kind of rock called basalt.

Although it's a
very lightweight rock,

it also absorbs impact
extremely well.

And so if the whole of the Moon
was made of that kind of rock,

you wouldn't expect it
to reverberate

when a large impact took place.

The reason that
this is played down

is because the idea
of the Moon being hollow

just contradicts what we know
about physics.

In his 1966 book,

Intelligent Life
in the Universe,

renowned scientist
and astronomer Carl Sagan

defined modern scholarship
regarding the composition

of celestial bodies
throughout the cosmos.

Carl Sagan suggested
that a natural satellite

cannot be a hollow object.

This is very odd because why
would the Moon be vibrating

unless it's a hollow object?

That would suggest
it's artificial.

Significant portions of the Moon

may have been hollowed out.

If that is the case,
the chances are

that was not achieved naturally.

That would have to have been
achieved artificially.

This brings up
the important question,

who would've had the ability,
the skills,

and the technology to do that?

Certainly not us.

That would only have to be
the work of extraterrestrials

and no one else.

Is it possible that
the Moon is not only hollow,

but also
an artificial structure?

And if so, could it be
an extraterrestrial creation?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes and as evidence,

they point to research
indicating

the Moon is actually...

a spaceship.

Moscow, Russia.

July 1970.

After years of studying findings
from various Moon missions,

two government scientists,

Michael Vasin
and Alexander Shcherbakov,

publish an article
in Sputnik magazine

revealing their
shocking conclusion

about the nature of the Moon.

Their theory is that the Moon
is likely a creation

of alien intelligence
that was brought to Earth

in the remote past.

Two Russian physicists,
Vasin and Shcherbakov,

came up with the idea that

the Moon must be
an artificial object.

They based their ideas on,
first of all,

the fact that it appeared that
the Moon was hollow.

Since no hollow planet
could exist

according to
the known laws of physics,

that would mean that the Moon
had to be an artificial,

an engineered object.

This article was
quite groundbreaking.

In fact, what they did is
to fundamentally redefine

scholarship around
what we think the Moon is.

Based on the maximum
depth of the Moon craters,

Vasin and Shcherbakov proposed

that the surface was
only 2.1/2 miles thick.

NASA scientists had determined
that this moondust

primarily consisted of chromium,
titanium and zirconium.

In their publication,
Vasin and Shcherbakov noted,

"If a material had to be devised
to protect

"a giant artificial satellite
from the unfavorable effects

"of temperature
from cosmic radiation

"and meteorite bombardment,

"the experts would
probably have hit

on precisely these elements."

Now they themselves proposed

that this suggestion
is outlandish.

However, only through their
calculations

and all the mathematics,

they determined that their
theory is correct.

We're talking people
in academia who may perhaps

lose their position
at the universities.

I don't think anybody would
publish a paper like this

unless they were 100% convinced
that their findings are true.

The entire object may be
of artificial origin.

And if that is the case,
my question is:

who built the Moon, who placed
it here, and how long ago?

And so these Russian scientists,

their theory is
that the Moon is a spaceship.

It's got engines within.

But that on the outside,
they've coated it

with this
moon-looking substance.

Now, it's a farfetched idea,
but it makes a lot of sense

in that you might want to shroud
or cloak this craft

and make it look like a, uh,
very natural object.

Since the publication

of the Vasin and Shcherbakov
article,

other researchers have come out
in support of their theory.

In 1975, Don Wilson wrote

Our Mysterious Spaceship Moon.

In 1976, George Leonard wrote
Somebody Else Is on the Moon,

and these books further explored
a variety of anomalies.

Now, they note
some very bizarre things.

For example, the mineral
and metallic composition

of the material on the Moon
is not like anything

that we see on Earth,
and the apparent age of the Moon

seems to be greater than the
actual age of our solar system.

So they believe that the Moon
was actually brought here

from somewhere else.

Lots of people have talked
about the idea

that the Moon itself
is actually a spacecraft,

that it was piloted here and
put in this particular orbit.

There's no question that
there's evidence that the Moon

could be
a modified natural object.

There are ancient
stories that speak of a time

when the Moon
was not up in the sky

and there are descriptions
that say that the Moon

was artificially pulled
into place.

So if we have two modern Russian
scientists who have suggested

that perhaps the Moon
was pulled into place,

and that is a corroboration
of ancient mythologies,

that's when I listen.

So the whole idea
that our Moon

is some gigantic hollow
spaceship

that's been put into a special
orbit around our planet,

and contains cities and
structures

that are inside and outside
of the Moon

is to me
a very reasonable assertion.

And in fact it would seem to be
that our Moon

is some kind of gigantic
artificial spaceship

that is here
to monitor our planet.

Would I discount
the fact that the Moon

is a foreign object,
a spaceship, a Death Star?

I don't think
you can rule that out.

Is it possible that the Moon

is actually a spacecraft?

And might it have allowed
extraterrestrials

to discreetly monitor
our planet?

But if so, might these beings
still be there today?

November 1966.

Three years before the Apollo
astronauts made it to the Moon,

the Orbiter 2 spacecraft
situates itself in lunar orbit.

It was designed to capture
high-resolution images

of the surface to assist with
the selection of landing sites

for the Apollo missions.

One image in particular catches
the eye of researchers,

as it shows what appear
to be the shadows

of several pointed spires.

On November 20, 1966,

the Lunar Orbiter 2,
NASA's probe,

photographs this area
on the Moon

that was actually
in the Sea of Tranquility,

only 300 kilometers away
from where Apollo 11

ended up landing.

And, what's so bizarre is that
this area

has undeniable architecture that
looks like what you would see

from obelisks.

There's eight different spires.

And scientists calculated that
the largest of these spires

would be an obelisk that
is 15 stories tall.

These do appear to be just like
an Egyptian-style obelisk.

But, what the heck are they
doing on the Moon?

Of the multiple
anomalies on the Moon,

I think the spires are some of
the most fascinating ones

because astronomers
have calculated

that these spires are very tall

for them to be exclusively
natural occurrences.

They have to be artificial,

simply from the fact that
the Moon has been bombarded

in kind of
an incessant meteoric rain

for 4.5 billion years.

There is no way that anything
bigger than a basketball

can be standing straight up
on the lunar surface.

The inference is that
NASA would have known this

and that one of the reasons that
they sent their mission there

was so that the astronauts
of the Apollo mission

could gain more information
about these

artificial structures
on the Moon.

CAPCOMM, we're a go
for undocking.

Roger, Eagle, undock.

On Apollo 11, when the
astronauts were descending

to the lunar surface,

they got this very strange
computer alarm.

The 1202 alarm.

1202.
1202 alarm.

The famous 1202 computer alarm.

Basically, nobody
knew what it was.

What it came out to, um,
was that the computer itself

was overwhelmed with information
because Buzz Aldrin,

the lunar module pilot,

had turned on the radars
on the lunar lander.

It had two radars
it had a side looking radar

and it had a docking radar.

So, in other words,
you had one that pointed down

and one that pointed
to the side.

Now, if there's nothing
on the surface of the Moon,

if there are
no artificial structures,

if there are no spires sticking
ten, 20 stories up into the sky,

why would you turn on
the side radar?

There's no reason to,
but Aldrin did it.

And, I think it's because
he knew and NASA knew

that there was some danger
of running into these things.

Is it possible that
NASA actually has knowledge

of structures on the Moon?

In 1960, NASA officials
commissioned a report

from the Brookings Institute
to weigh the implications

of the discovery of evidence
of extraterrestrial life.

Due to the findings
of the report,

researchers believe
it was determined

before the Moon missions to keep
any extraterrestrial findings

hidden from the public

for fear of social unrest.

Since the time of the very first
Apollo Moon missions,

researchers have pored
over NASA and Russian photos

of the Moon looking
for structures.

And they found
some unusual things.

You would think, in fact,
that if extraterrestrials

are on the Moon or were,
that they would have built

all kinds of structures.

And we're able
to see some of these,

even though NASA scientists

don't acknowledge
them as genuine.

But perhaps as intriguing

as the various structures seen
on the surface of the Moon

are the numerous reports
of lights

and other unexplainable
activity.

Intermittent reflections
emanating from the lunar surface

have been observed
for more than a century,

including by famed astronomer
Francis Bailey

in 1835.

And the phenomenon was also
reported by the Apollo 11 crew.

The windows are all dark.

And that's when I began seeing
a flash and a streak

and another flash.

Flicker flashes we called them.
Kept seeing them.

And I said,
"You guys see anything unusual?

You see any flashes?"

Neil said,
"Yeah, I saw about 100 of them."

"How about you, Mike?"

"Nah, I didn't see a thing."

Any deep analysis by the crew as
to what the hell it was?

No.

'Cause we were,
we were on our way home.

Let's, let's let somebody else
worry about that.

These things were
actually disclosed by NASA

in their own transient lunar
anomalies catalog

showing lights moving around,
showing puffs of smoke,

showing things that should not
be there on the Moon's surface,

all of which suggests that there
is, in fact, a very thriving

extraterrestrial community
living on the Moon today.

Might there not only
be structures

on the lunar surface
but also unidentified activity?

Activity that might point
to current extraterrestrial

occupation of the Moon?

Ancient astronaut theorists
say yes

and suggest that further
evidence may be found

on the dark side of the Moon.

The Moon is the most
visible celestial body

in the night sky.

But we only ever see one side

as it is in synchronous rotation
with Earth,

meaning it takes just as long to
rotate around its own axis

as it does to complete
its orbit around our planet.

Therefore,
we can only observe one side,

and up to 41% of the Moon's
surface is never seen.

The Moon is in what we call
synchronous rotation

with the Earth.

That is that the effect
of the gravity of the Earth

and the Moon means that the Moon
only shows us one side,

its one face, the face that
we're all familiar with.

The reason for this
is because when two objects

get close enough to each other,
they do become

so-called phase-locked
in that manner.

It means it presents
the same face to the Earth

the whole time.

Because of the tidal locking

of the Moon's rotation,
it presents the same face.

And of course this leads
to speculation

because this creates
a perfect place

to create large installations
on the Moon

that are not directly observable
from Earth.

Hypothetically,
the far side of the Moon,

it's an excellent place
to put up bases.

And that has been a fixture
of a lot of science fiction.

There have been
whistle-blowers that say that

they've been taken to a base,

which is called
Lunar Operations Command,

on the far side of the Moon
and that this base

is part of a network of bases
on the far side of the Moon

that are run by various
secret space programs

and extraterrestrial
civilizations.

The Apollo missions have taken
surveillance photographs

of the Moon's surface and some
of the photographs

have shown what
appear to be structures.

Could it be that
there are active bases

on the far side of the Moon?

Not only secret military bases,

but extraterrestrial bases
as well?

And if so, what would happen if
the full truth about the Moon

was finally revealed
to the general public?

Ultimately when the
truth of the origin of the Moon

and what is going on
in the Moon,

and-and structures on the Moon,

and perhaps even occupation of
the Moon is revealed to humans

on Earth, it will be a
shattering of our reality.

And we'll be able
to look up in the sky

and see what is an
extraterrestrial object

in orbit around our planet.

And we'll know it
for what it is.

There's not a single
scientifically valid reason

not to think that it's
an extraterrestrial spacecraft

brought here
by extraterrestrial beings

in order to assist humankind.

For some,
that's a terrifying thought.

Did the Apollo
astronauts encounter

more on the surface of the Moon
than was publicly revealed?

Might there have been evidence
of colonization,

or even that the Moon itself
is an artificial object?

And could this be
why we stopped going back?

Perhaps the upcoming
Moon missions,

the first in over four decades,

will finally reveal
the full truth

about this
mysterious celestial body

and also about our
extraterrestrial past.
