Mysteries of the moon. Secrets of the moon Mystical phenomena under the moon and the girl mystery

Why did the leading space powers of the USSR and the USA suddenly lose interest in the Moon? Either they made grandiose plans for its development, even colonization, or for decades there was silence.

This happens when everything is known and there is no point in continuing the study, or when such unexpected results are obtained that the work goes into the secrecy phase. The first option is doubtful: there are no less questions related to the Moon even now. But here's the second one...

Signs of a lunar mind?

In 1977, a book by a certain J. Leonard was published in the UK entitled “There is Someone Else on Our Moon” and with the subtitle “Amazing Facts of Intelligent Life on the Moon Discovered.”

An excavator the size of a city on the surface of 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, dome-shaped 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 NASA officials, study thousands of photographs, and listen to hours of tape recordings of conversations with astronauts.

Thirty-five photographs (each with a NASA code number), dozens of detailed drawings made, according to the author, from high-quality large-format photographs, 230 pages of text listing facts and documents, statements from NASA experts and an extensive bibliography lead to a stunning conclusion: NASA and many scientists world-famous people have long known that signs of intelligent life have been discovered on the Moon!

Disinformation? But then the reaction to this publication is amazing. No denials
no comments, no discussion of any kind. Are the pictures fake? But the author in the appendix gives the address where you can get copies of them.




Maybe NASA leaked information? Here is J. Leonard's own hypothesis: “I'm starting to think that NASA is presenting these photographs with the attitude: “Here they are. If you - the public and the scientific community - are not too interested or blind to see these oddities, that's your problem. We don’t have funds in our 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 was published in 1978 - the same result. Only copies that were accidentally exported abroad, including to the USSR, remained. But it seems that the Moor still did his job. In 1981, a book (“Alien Bases on the Moon,” by Fred Steckling) was published in the United States, full of facts and NASA photographs depicting UFOs and other phenomena on the Moon and in its environs. In 1992, a book with similar content was published in Japan.

Mysterious light

"Wow!!! - Astronaut Harrison Schmitt, 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 the Grimaldi crater... where there was only a narrow strip of light.” (It was in this place that Apollo 16 pilot Ken Mattingly saw a flash of bright light).
The next day it was the turn of another pilot, Ronald Evans, to be surprised: “I would never have believed it!” I am right above the edge of the Eastern Sea. I just saw a bright flash with my own eyes! Right at the end of the furrow..."

One of the serious authorities in the field of the physical and geological nature of the Moon, Dr. Farouk El-Baz, 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 of NATURAL origin !

Strange light phenomena on the lunar disk have been noticed for a long time. Flashes, luminous stripes, moving spots of light were 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 light fluctuations on the Moon. By April 1871, 1,600 such cases were recorded in the Plato crater alone. Observers saw a flickering blue light or a cluster of specks of light that looked like bright, needle-like dots gathering together. W. 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.

White sparkling dots arranged in an arc, tiny dots and streaks of light are especially often observed in the Sea of ​​Crises. Sometimes these are tiny dots and stripes of light, united into some kind of figure, sometimes periodically flashing light, similar to intelligent signals.

The attention of astronomers has long been attracted by a strange light in the craters of Aristarchus and Plato. Bright red flashes in the area of ​​the Aristarchus crater sometimes cover areas of several kilometers and are more often observed above dome-shaped structures. Moving objects are observed in the Sea of ​​Tranquility. In 1964, light or dark spots were seen there at least four times, spreading over tens and even hundreds of kilometers in a few hours.

On September 11, 1967, for 8-9 seconds, Canadian researchers observed a dark rectangular spot with purple edges moving 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 along the path of the spot near the Sabine crater. And, apparently, it was no coincidence that a year and a half later, Apollo landed in this area! 1". The study of lunar soil at the landing site surprised experts. The soil was melted by a light source 100 times brighter than the Sun. Experts believe that the source of radiation was at a low altitude above the Moon. But these are not the engines of the Apollo lander.



In 1968, NASA published a summary of the observations in the Chronological Catalog of Lunar Event Reports. Among the 579 phenomena the following were named: moving luminous objects; colored trenches lengthening at a speed of 6 km/h; giant domes that change color; a large luminous object, the so-called "Maltese Cross", observed on November 26, 1956; geometric figures; disappearing craters and other things that cannot be explained. The catalog also records the speed of movement of the mentioned spots in the Sea of ​​Tranquility - from 32 to 80 km/h.

Logic dictates that the vast majority of lunar phenomena simply remain outside our field of vision. After all, there is also the other side of the Moon.

Something lands, something flies

In the summer of 1955, V. Yaremenko from Odessa looked at “countless lunar craters, mountains and seas” through a homemade telescope. “Above the disk, parallel to its edge, at a distance of approximately 0.2 lunar radius, a luminous body flew, similar to a 3rd magnitude star under normal observation,” he recalls. - Having flown a third of the circle (it took 4-5 seconds), the body descended along a steep trajectory onto the lunar surface. It was quite large and... manageable! And artificial satellites did not yet exist in those years...”

Here are the observations of V. Luchko from Lvov (March 31, 1983): “About 2 hours 30 minutes. on the clear, almost full disk of the Moon... a rather large dark body was noticed, quickly and smoothly passing along a slightly curved path through the northwestern part of the disk in the direction from west to east. His journey took no more than a second. After a short period of time, exactly the same (or the same) body again crossed the Moon at the same speed and in the same direction...” That same night, Luchko managed to notice six appearances of the same bodies (or the same one). “In all cases, it was a relatively large, dark, even black body of irregular shape, perfectly visible against the background of the shining lunar disk.”

Our television has repeatedly played a video recording 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 enormous 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” one - 200 km/s.

Astronautics gave a new impetus to the study of lunar mysteries. Photographs of the Moon taken from spacecraft, and information obtained during flights and landings on the Moon, forced NASA to seriously study the Earth's 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 results of the research are not known to the general public.

Only hypotheses

Examining photographs from the book by J. Leonard, researcher at the Association for Engineering Dowsing O.A. Isaeva identified zones with an increased energy background on the surface of the Moon 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, promising for nuclear energy, was obtained artificially on Earth only in 1937; it does not occur in its natural form 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 occur when cosmic particles hit the brain or eyeball. However, light phenomena are also observed by terrestrial researchers who are not subject to such 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 have been observed on the Moon.

They try to explain flares on the Moon by meteorite impacts on rocks and rocks. However, this can only explain occasional short-term and one-time effects. M. Jessup, a mathematician and astronomer who seriously substantiated the connection between UFOs and the Moon, noted that in both the 18th and 19th centuries on the Moon during
spots of light were observed for hours or longer. The moon sparkled, sparkled, flared. And the probability of two meteorites hitting the same place in a relatively short period is negligible.

It has been suggested that at one time gases could have gotten under the uncooled lava flows on the Moon, but now they are released. But gases spontaneously released in nature, as a rule, do not have color, rhythm, shape or size. And all this is on the Moon. It was not possible to connect the glow of “gases” with the influence of ultraviolet rays from the Sun. 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 glows and flashes would not have been tied for centuries to certain areas on the Moon (there are 90 of them!).



The hypothesis of volcanic activity contradicts the official NASA concept, according to which our satellite is a relatively dead planet. In addition, the tremors usual for an eruption would have been recorded by a network of seismographs installed on the Moon. However, they were silent even on April 25, 1972, when in the area of ​​the Aristarchus and Herodotus craters a “light fountain” was recorded, which at a speed of 1.35 km/s reached a height of 162 km, shifted sideways by 60 km and dissolved.

In 1992, American astronomer M. Kenton reported 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 to experience a state of frustration, mental splitting, and group insanity. The reaction of the animal world, where instincts prevail, is unpredictable...”

Many scientists recognized that tremors on the Moon were something new in scientific observations, but did not believe that the Moon could break apart. And they were right.

Vitaly Pravdivtsev. Scientific director of the information and analytical center "Unknown"

Back in the 1960s, Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov from the USSR Academy of Sciences put forward the hypothesis that in reality our satellite was created artificially.
This hypothesis has eight main postulates, popularly called “riddles,” which analyze some of the most surprising aspects about the satellite.
Is the Moon an artificial satellite? The first mystery of the Moon: artificial Moon or cosmic exchange

In fact, the orbit of motion and the size of the moon's satellite are physically almost impossible. If this were natural, one could argue that this is an extremely strange “whim” of the cosmos. This is due to the fact that the size of the Moon is equal to a quarter of the size of the Earth, and the ratio of the sizes of the satellite and the planet is always many times smaller. The distance from the Moon to the Earth is such that the sizes of the Sun and Moon are visually the same. This allows us to observe such a rare phenomenon as a total solar eclipse, when the Moon completely covers the Sun. The same mathematical impossibility applies to the masses of both celestial bodies. If the Moon were a body that at a certain moment was attracted by the Earth and acquired a natural orbit, then it would be expected that this orbit should be elliptical. Instead, it is strikingly round.
The second mystery of the Moon: the incredible curvature of the Moon's surface


The incredible curvature that the Moon's surface exhibits is inexplicable. The moon is not a round body. The results of geological studies lead to the conclusion that this planetoid is actually a hollow ball. Although it is such, scientists still cannot explain how the Moon can have such a strange structure without being destroyed. One explanation offered by the above-mentioned scientists is that the lunar crust was made of a solid titanium frame. Indeed, the lunar crust and rocks have been shown to have extraordinary levels of titanium. According to Russian scientists Vasin and Shcherbakov, the thickness of the titanium layer is 30 km.
The third mystery of the Moon: lunar craters


The explanation for the presence of a huge number of meteorite craters on the surface of the Moon is widely known - the absence of an atmosphere. Most cosmic bodies that try to penetrate Earth encounter kilometers of atmosphere on their way, and it all ends with the “aggressor” disintegrating. The Moon does not have the ability to protect its surface from the scars left by all the meteorites crashing into it - craters of all sizes. What remains unexplained is the shallow depth to which the aforementioned bodies were able to penetrate. It really looks as if a layer of extremely durable material prevented meteorites from penetrating into the center of the satellite. Even craters with a diameter of 150 kilometers do not exceed 4 kilometers deep into the Moon. This feature is inexplicable from the point of view of normal observations that there should be craters at least 50 km deep.
The fourth mystery of the Moon: “lunar seas”


How were the so-called “lunar seas” formed? These gigantic areas of solid lava, which originate from the interior of the Moon, could easily be explained if the Moon were a hot planet with a liquid interior, where they could arise from meteorite impacts. But physically, it is much more likely that the Moon, judging by its size, has always been a cold body. Another mystery is the location of the “lunar seas”. Why are 80% of them on the visible side of the Moon?
The fifth mystery of the Moon: mascons


The gravitational attraction on the surface of the Moon is not uniform. This effect had already been noted by the crew of Apollo VIII when it flew around the lunar sea zones. Mascones (from "Mass Concentration" - mass concentration) are places where a substance of greater density or quantity is believed to exist. This phenomenon is closely related to the lunar seas, since the mascons are located under them.
The sixth mystery of the Moon: geographic asymmetry


A rather shocking fact in science, which still cannot be explained, is the geographic asymmetry of the surface of the Moon. The famous "dark" side of the Moon has many more craters, mountains and relief features. In addition, as we already mentioned, most of the seas, on the contrary, are on the side that we can see.
The seventh mystery of the Moon: the low density of the Moon


The density of our satellite is 60% of the density of the Earth. This fact, together with various studies, proves that the Moon is a hollow object. Moreover, several scientists have ventured to suggest that the above-mentioned cavity is artificial. In fact, given the arrangement of the surface layers that have been identified, scientists argue that the Moon appears to be like a planet that formed "in reverse," and some have used this to argue for the "artificial casting" theory.
The Eighth Mystery of the Moon: Origin


In the last century, for a long time, three theories of the origin of the Moon were conventionally accepted. Currently, most of the scientific community has accepted the hypothesis of the artificial origin of the lunar planetoid as no less valid than others.
One theory suggests that the Moon is a fragment of the Earth. But the enormous differences in the nature of these two bodies make this theory practically untenable.
Another theory is that this celestial body formed at the same time as the Earth, from the same cloud of cosmic gas. But the previous conclusion is also valid in relation to this judgment, since the Earth and the Moon should have at least a similar structure.
The third theory suggests that, while wandering through space, the Moon fell into the earth's gravity, which caught and turned it into its “captive”. The big flaw in this explanation is that the Moon's orbit is essentially circular and cyclical. In such a phenomenon (when the satellite is “caught” by the planet), the orbit would be sufficiently distant from the center or, at least, would be some kind of ellipsoid.
The fourth assumption is the most incredible of all, but, in any case, it can explain the various anomalies that are associated with the Earth's satellite, since if the Moon were constructed by intelligent beings, then the physical laws to which it is subject would not be equally applicable to other celestial bodies.
The mysteries of the Moon put forward by scientists Vasin and Shcherbakov are only some real physical assessments of the Moon's anomalies. In addition, there are many other video, photographic evidence and studies that give confidence to those who think about the possibility that our “natural” satellite is not one.
Recently, a controversial video appeared on the Internet, which will be interesting within the framework of the topic under consideration:
Video description:
This video was made from Germany and was filmed over 4 days starting on July 7, 2014. It is clearly visible how “waves”, or rather a stripe, “runs” across the surface of the Moon, and this is similar to how the image of the lunar surface that we see from Earth is updated.
No matter how crazy it may sound, precisely such stripes have been noticed more than once when filming with various video cameras and telescopes. I think anyone with a video camera with a good zoom will be able to see the same thing.
And how, may I ask you, can I explain this? In my opinion, several explanations are possible, and adherents of the generally accepted picture of the world will not like all of them.
1. There is no Moon in the Earth’s orbit at all, but only a flat projection (hologram) creating the appearance of its presence. Moreover, this projection is quite primitive technically, judging by the fact that its creators were forced to create a flat projection and that is why the moon is turned to us on one side. This is simply saving resources to maintain the visible part of the Moon.
2. In the Earth’s orbit there is indeed a certain object whose dimensions correspond to the “Moon” visible to us from the Earth, but in fact, what we see is only a hologram - a camouflage created on top of the object. This, by the way, explains why no one flies to the “Moon”. I think all the states that sent their vehicles to the “Moon” know very well that under the guise of what we see from Earth, there is something completely different there.
These versions are supported by those facts that have long been surprising for their illogicality:
- Why humanity sends spacecraft into deep space, but completely ignores the planet closest to us.
- Why are all the photographs of the moon transmitted by earthly satellites of such disgusting quality?
- Why can’t astronomers, having advanced telescopes, take pictures of the lunar surface with a quality comparable at least to pictures from Mars or from earthly satellites. Why do satellites fly in Earth orbit that are capable of taking a photograph of a surface on which a car license plate is visible, while lunar satellites photograph the surface in such a resolution that one cannot dare to call it a photograph.
In addition, we present two fragments from RenTV films on the theme of the Moon. The reputation of this channel is known to everyone, but the information provided is useful for analyzing the arguments proposed above.

Moon- the closest satellite of humanity in outer space and the only celestial body that we have visited. But despite its relative proximity to us and its apparent simplicity, our satellite continues to hide a lot, and some of them are worth learning about.

Optical illusion

During the full moon, our satellite emits 12.6 units of brightness, while the Sun emits 26.8. For some reason, the human eye “sees” the disk of the Moon much larger at the moment when it is close to the horizon. But in fact it is 1.5% smaller along with the Moon at its zenith. This is a kind of optical illusion, which we observe in the example of the Sun. And it is not the Earth’s atmosphere that refracts light and increases the diameter of the stars.


Moonquakes

The Moon has extremely low geological activity, but crustal movements occur there too. There are four types of moonquakes: the first three - deep moonquakes, vibrations from meteorite impacts and thermal moonquakes caused by solar activity - are relatively safe. And moonquakes of the fourth type can be up to 5.5 on the Richter scale - this is enough to make small objects begin to tremble. These tremors last for about ten minutes. Earthquakes on Earth are typically caused by the movement of tectonic plates, but on the Moon there are simply no tectonic plates, and we don't know what exactly causes moonquakes.

The moon is hollow inside

Above the “lunar site seas” they found areas in which the gravity of our satellite is changed. This fact, as well as testing the motion and specific gravity of the Moon, suggests that the Moon may be hollow inside. And after part of the Apollo 13 rocket separated and fell onto the surface of the satellite, the Moon “oscillated” for about three hours up to 40 kilometers deep, as if hollow! At the same time, according to the astronauts, it “ringed like a bell.”

Lunar anomalies

Some images taken by various satellites show very strange artificial structures, the size of which varies from very small ones, usually shaped like a parallelepiped, to obelisks less than 1.5 km in height.

Moon dust

One of the most amazing and at the same time most dangerous things on the Moon is lunar dust. Instead of dust, there is crushed regolith rock on the Moon. It is fine, like flour, but at the same time very rough. Thanks to its texture and low gravity, the site penetrates absolutely anywhere. NASA had numerous problems with lunar dust: it ripped astronauts' boots almost completely apart, penetrated ships and space suits, and caused "lunar hay fever" in astronauts if they inhaled it. Moon dust smells like burnt gunpowder, which is probably due to its meteorite origin. In the region of the lunar “oceans” its layer is 3 meters, and on the plateau it reaches 20.

Moon shadows

When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first walked on the Moon, they made an amazing discovery: the shadows on the Moon are much darker than the shadows on Earth due to the lack of an atmosphere. All lunar shadows are absolutely black. As soon as the astronauts stepped into the shadows, they could no longer see their own feet, despite the sun's disk burning brightly in the sky. Moon shadows became the bane of many Apollo missions. Some astronauts found it impossible to complete spacecraft maintenance tasks because they couldn't see what their hands were doing. Others thought that they had accidentally landed in a cave: this effect was created due to the shadows cast by the slopes.

Of course, the astronauts were able to adapt to this, but such a contrast between dark and light areas of the surface still remained a problem. The astronauts noticed that some shadows—namely, their own—had halos. They later learned that the eerie phenomenon was explained by the opposition effect, in which some dark shadow areas appear to have a bright halo, provided that the observer looks at the shadows from a certain angle.

Difficulties with low gravity

Although the gravity on the Moon is only one-sixth that of Earth, moving on its surface is difficult. Buzz Aldrin said that it would be extremely difficult to establish settlements on the Moon: the feet of astronauts in bulky spacesuits were buried in lunar dust almost 15 cm deep. Despite the low gravity, the inertia of a person on the Moon is high, so it is difficult to move quickly or change direction there. If the astronauts wanted to move faster, they had to jump like kangaroos, which was also a problem since the Moon is full of craters and other dangerous objects.

Solar eclipse thanks to the Moon

During a total solar eclipse, the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth, and the lunar disk exactly coincides with the solar one, covering it almost completely. This effect is due to an amazing coincidence: the diameter of the Sun is about 400 times greater than the diameter of the Moon, but the distance from us to the Sun is also about 400 times greater, so from the Earth both luminaries appear approximately the same. This ratio of sizes and distances is unique for all the planets of the Solar System and all their known satellites. Moreover, this coincidence happened precisely in our time, because the Moon is gradually moving away from the Earth, and after millions of years a total solar eclipse can no longer be seen.

A total solar eclipse was observed on November 14, 2013 in three Australian cities - Cairns, Port Douglas and Brisbane:

Moon eclipse

This is an eclipse that occurs when the Moon enters the cone of the shadow cast by the Earth. The Moon can be completely obscured, i.e. a total lunar eclipse with a blood-red moon effect, or the Moon can be partially obscured - a partial or penumbral eclipse.

A total lunar eclipse occurred on June 15, 2011. The Moon was completely immersed in the Earth's shadow for 100 minutes. This is the longest eclipse since July 2000:

Supermoon

A supermoon is the position of the Moon when it is slightly closer to the Earth in its orbit than usual. The effect of a close orbit is especially noticeable during the full moon. The Moon appears larger than usual, although the difference in distance from Earth differs by only a few percent. During a supermoon The moon looks 14% bigger and 30% brighter than on normal days. A supermoon typically does not have a noticeable effect on Earth, except for stronger tides.

Every month on the day of the new moon, the Earth, Moon and Sun line up, with the Moon taking its place in the middle. This astronomical phenomenon causes extensive tides. During these tides, the water mark is particularly high, and then the water subsides later that day. During supermoons, the Moon increases the tides, causing what are called perigee tides.

During a supermoon On August 10, the Moon will be at its closest distance to Earth. This is evening and night from Sunday to Monday. But even the day before, the Moon will already be magnificent. If you also take into account that in August the Earth passes through a meteor shower appearing from the direction of the constellation Perseus, and falling meteorites are most often observed, then you can sit all night admiring the starry sky with “falling stars” and a huge bright moon. Very romantic! Do not miss!

Earth sunrise over the moon

It is known that the Moon always faces the Earth with one side, but for someone who is on the Moon, the Earth will not hang motionless in the sky. This is due to the fact that, firstly, the Moon’s orbit is not circular, but elliptical, and secondly, the Moon’s axis of rotation is inclined to the axis of the orbit around the Earth. Thanks to these small movements, which are collectively called libration, a total of about 60% of the lunar surface is visible to an observer on Earth. In turn, an observer located on the border of the lunar disk can see the sunrise and sunset of the Earth. Magnificent view of the Earth rising above the Moon:

Moonbows

There are also lunar rainbows that arise from sunlight reflected by the Moon. Since this light is significantly weaker than direct sunlight, to the human eye a lunar rainbow usually looks just white, but a camera with a long exposure can capture it in color. Moonbow at Victoria Falls:

The relationship between the phases of the moon, writing and lunar chronology

We call the emerging disk of the Moon a month. It grows from right to left and decreases in the same order. Therefore, after the new moon, when the Moon is completely invisible, a month appears, the horns of which point to the left. And after the full moon, when the Moon wanes, gradually turning back into a month, its horns are already directed to the right. Therefore, it is always easy to determine what phase the Moon is in. What we see The illuminated shape of the Moon always changes from right to left, also influenced the direction of writing in Arabic writing. In some countries, lunar chronology is adopted along with the usual solar Gregorian calendar. Thus, The year 2014 corresponds to 1435 according to the Islamic calendar and 2557 according to the Buddhist calendar.

Here's some more interesting information about the Moon:

1. Few people know that there is a real monument to the fallen astronauts on the Moon. It is a small man in a spacesuit, measuring 8 cm, made of aluminum and installed in 1971. The figurine also includes a plaque with the names of the dead people. Among the other 14 cosmonauts, the name of Yuri Gagarin is mentioned. Eugene Shoemaker (founder of astrogeology) himself wanted to become an astronaut, but was unable to get the job due to minor health problems. This remained the biggest disappointment throughout his life, but Shoemaker nevertheless continued to dream that one day he would be able to visit the Moon himself. When he died, NASA fulfilled his greatest wish and sent his ashes to the Moon with the Lunar Prospector station in 1998. website His ashes remain there, scattered among the moon dust.

2. If Belka and Strelka were the first conquerors of space, then the conquerors of the Moon can be called Asian turtles with various bugs, plants and bacteria. They orbited the Earth's satellite for the first time.

3. According to space news, the Moon has such a feature as a sharp temperature drop from -100°C to +160°C, while on Earth the maximum and record difference was recorded once in 1916, Montana (USA ) – amounted to -49 to +7 degrees.

4. There is no atmosphere on the Moon, so there is a black starry sky there all day long. From it, regardless of the time of day, the Earth is always clearly visible.

5. Moon's gravity is 6 times less than Earth's. Based on this information and simple mathematical calculations, an ordinary person can easily lift the weight of a load equal to his own.

6. To help you navigate the site in the distance from the Earth to the Moon, we will give several examples. It will take about 20 days to fly by plane, and up to six months by car at a constant speed of 90-100 km/h.

The more people learn about the Moon, the more mysteries arise that challenge established scientific ideas about it.

UFO on the Moon:

We have already said that all the information about celestial bodies at the disposal of astronomers was obtained at a distance, by indirect methods. The reliability of this information is confirmed by the reliability of the method and their repeated testing under terrestrial conditions. However, direct verification of astronomical data would be of great fundamental importance.

And now the day for such a test has come.

On January 31, 1966, the Soviet Union launched the Lupa 9 automatic station into orbit towards the Moon, and on February 3 at 21:45:30 Moscow time, it smoothly descended onto the lunar surface in an area that astronomers call the Ocean of Storms.

Within a few minutes after landing, the station’s transmitter began to work, sending signals to Earth that the equipment and instruments were ready. The first radio broadcast Earth - Moon! A few hours later, at 4:50 a.m. on February 4, on command from the Earth, the first television session in the history of science from the Moon took place. The automatic station began surveying the lunar landscape and transmitting images to Earth.

What astronomers have long dreamed of has come true. Scientists have at their disposal photographs of the lunar landscape, taken using equipment that was located directly on the lunar surface. What did these photographs tell us?

It is remarkable that the lunar landscape on television images transmitted by the Luna 9 station, and somewhat later by another Soviet station Luna 13, appeared before us exactly as we expected to see it based on recent optical and radio astronomical observations. An uneven surface, pitted with depressions and craters with a diameter of one to several meters, sharp outlines of distant rocks and above all this a completely black sky due to the lack of atmosphere.

It is especially important that the photographs obtained fully confirmed the results of radio observations carried out in recent years, and primarily the conclusions regarding the structure and structure of the lunar soil.

From the analysis of photographs, first of all, it is clear that during landing the station did not sink into the ground. This already suggests that the surface layer on the Moon is quite hard. There are no traces of dust on the ground at the landing sites of these stations. In addition, if there were dust particles near the station, they, attracted by the electrostatic charge acquired by the station during the flight, would have to cover its nodes. Dust would also settle on the lens of the photo-television installation, which would inevitably affect the image quality. However, the image clarity is very high.

The resolution of the equipment of the Soviet Luna 9 station, with the help of which the review and photography was carried out, is such that in the foreground one can distinguish details spaced only 1-2 mm from each other. A person with good eyesight sees approximately the same details under his feet. This made it possible to discover that the surface layer on the Moon is indeed finely porous, with a spongy structure. In particular, the results of radar observations of the Moon were confirmed, according to which the unevenness of the microrelief of the lunar surface should be less than 10 cm.

The uniformity of the microstructure of the lunar soil is noteworthy. This fact indicates that the surface of our natural satellite was influenced by some factors that acted everywhere, and that these factors were constancy and regularity. Most likely, the factors in question were of a cosmic nature.

Apparently, the process of formation of the modern surface layer of the Moon occurred approximately as follows. First, lava poured onto the lunar surface, and only then, as a result of external influences, it turned into the porous substance that covers our natural satellite today.

Prof. is probably right. N. N. Sytinskaya, linking porosity with micrometeorites. However, it is also possible that volcanic phenomena could play a certain role in the formation of porosity, at least in certain areas of the lunar surface. For example, it is known that during volcanic eruptions on Earth, molten rocks, solidifying under conditions of rapid gas release, form something like hardened foam.

Of course, one cannot ignore that on the Moon volcanic processes occur under slightly different physical conditions than on Earth: in a vacuum and with a much weaker gravity. A detailed analysis of all these phenomena is yet to come.

According to the famous Soviet scientist prof. A.I. Lebedinsky, the material of the lunar surface in the landing area of ​​the Soviet station “Luna 9” was subjected to repeated processing. He was crushed under the blows

meteorites, then the resulting particles stuck together in a vacuum, turning into solid rock, which in turn cracked from sudden temperature fluctuations, was again subjected to meteorite impacts, stuck together, cracked, and so on many, many times.

Observations carried out using the Luna 13 station, in addition, showed that the mechanical properties of the surface layer of lunar soil are close to the properties of medium-density terrestrial soil. Using equipment installed at the Luna 13 station, direct measurements of the density of lunar rocks were carried out for the first time. It turned out that this density does not exceed one gram per cubic centimeter. This is significantly lower than the density of ordinary terrestrial soils, but close to the density of porous and granular rocks.

In the photographs transmitted by Luna 13, you can see that the density meter, when turning, ironed out a flat area in the ground. This leads to the conclusion that the topmost layer of lunar soil has very low strength.

Interesting data on the mechanical properties of lunar soil were also obtained by the American Surveyor 1 and Surveyor 3 spacecraft.

The results of studying the structure of the lunar surface using photographs transmitted by Soviet automatic stations are in good agreement with the latest radio observation data of V. S. Troitsky. They suggest that the lunar soil is not a hard sponge like pumice, as previously thought, but rather a loosely bonded granular structure, similar to wet sand,

It is also interesting that the Luna 9 station recorded radiation emanating from the lunar surface and, apparently, associated with nuclear reactions that occur in it under the influence of cosmic rays. This confirms the assumption that the lunar soil is significantly affected by cosmic rays.

Another assumption of astronomers was also justified.

We see any object only because it reflects light rays. Why, then, do we see a man standing in tons? Yes, because on Earth light reaches even the shadow; it is sunlight scattered by the atmosphere. There is no atmosphere on the Moon, and therefore the shadows there should be much darker.

Indeed, in one of the images taken by the Luna 9 station, a small stone is visible, located right in the foreground. The photographed landscape was illuminated by the rays of the Sun, which during the first session was at an altitude of about 7° above the horizon. Such a low position of the Sun for the period of photographing was foreseen in advance, because with side lighting, all surface irregularities become more prominent. The stone in question casts a long shadow, in the area of ​​which surface details are almost completely indistinguishable.

Due to the fact that the Moon's radius is almost four times smaller than the Earth's, the lunar surface has a much greater curvature than the surface of our own planet. Due to this, the horizon range on the Moon should be significantly less than on Earth, and indeed, the horizon range in the photograph is about 1.5-2 km.

According to astronomical data, the Luna 9 landing site is a relatively flat area of ​​the Moon. Photographs of two adjacent sections of the lunar surface show that almost to the horizon the terrain is quite smooth and only hills rise in the distance.

The photographs also brought something unexpected. These are individual small and larger stones scattered across the lunar surface. Most likely, these are volcanic rocks that were once erupted from the lunar interior, or fragments thrown out during the formation of meteorite craters. It is also possible that these are initial inclusions in the surface layer, “floating” to the surface during the destruction of the rock.

It is unlikely that these were meteorites. The fact is that there are no traces of impact on the ground under the stones. This means they had to gently land on the moon. A similar case is, in principle, possible if a meteorite flies tangentially to the lunar surface and catches up with the Moon in its orbital movement. Then its speed can be close to the speeds of points on the lunar surface, and the landing can occur without a strong impact. But such a landing on the moon is a rather rare case, and therefore it is difficult to assume that all the fireplaces visible in the photograph have such an original origin.

Very important data on the chemical composition of the lunar soil were obtained using so-called gamma spectrometers installed on board Soviet artificial lunar satellites. These instruments record natural radioactive radiation from lunar rocks. Analysis of the data obtained showed that the lunar surface contains rocks similar in composition to terrestrial basalts. This conclusion was subsequently confirmed by the American Surveyor 5 spacecraft, which carried out a chemical analysis of the lunar soil at one of the points of the Sea of ​​​​Tranquility. It turned out that in this area the surface of the Moon is covered with a mineral of volcanic origin, similar in composition to basalts. This substance contains 53-63% oxygen, 15-21% silicon, 4-8% aluminum, about 3% cobalt and nickel with an admixture of sulfur, as well as magnesium, carbon, sodium and some other elements. In addition, a special magnet attracted iron particles.

We will talk about unearthly structures on the Moon, as well as traces of intelligent beings on the cosmic body closest to us.
Washington. March 21, 1996 National Press Club.
“...NASA scientists and engineers who participated in the Moon and Mars exploration programs reported on the results of processing the information received. For the first time, the existence of artificial structures and man-made objects on the Moon was announced.”

It was also mentioned at the briefing that the Soviet Union once also possessed some of the photographic materials relating to irrefutable evidence of the presence of traces of intelligent activity on the Moon. And although the nature of this activity has not yet been established, thousands of photo and video documents received by Apollo and the military space station Clementine have made it possible to identify and topographically designate numerous areas of the lunar surface where facts, traces were discovered and clearly visible extraterrestrial activity. The briefing featured videos and photographs taken by American astronauts during the Apollo program. When asked why this information was not brought to the attention of the public earlier, NASA experts replied: “...20 years ago it was difficult to predict how people would react to the message that someone was or is on the Moon in our time. In addition, there were other reasons not related to NASA."
Some researchers believe that the structures on the Moon were created by alien civilizations, and were used as a transit base for their activities on Earth.
Such guesses are confirmed in the legends and myths of different peoples of our planet. Many kilometers of ruins of lunar cities, huge transparent domes, many tunnels and other structures are forcing scientists to reconsider their views on the problems associated with our ideas about the Moon. Its origin and the peculiarities of its movement relative to the Earth remain a mystery to researchers today.
On the surface of what we believed was our satellite, a large number of structures were discovered that did not raise doubts about their artificial origin.
“Some partially destroyed objects on the surface of the Moon cannot be attributed to natural geological formations,” experts say. “They contain a complex organization and geometric structure.”
In the area of ​​the Tycho crater, mysterious terrace-like rock excavations were discovered. The concentric hexagonal excavations and the presence of a tunnel entrance on the slope of the terrace are difficult to explain by natural processes. It's more like open-pit mining.

NASA has at its disposal large archives of astronomical observations that indicate that on our closest neighbor the Moon, not everything fits into the framework of a lifeless and uninhabited desert. Many interesting facts can be found in the NASA Catalog of Lunar Anomalies, containing observations of strange short-term lunar phenomena (SLPs) on our satellite from 1540 to the present day. The most comprehensive catalog of this data was published by NASA in 1978.
In this regard, facts of observations of mysterious phenomena on the Moon from astronomical archives before the rocket period will be interesting.
1064“A star of enormous brightness appeared in the circle of the Moon a few days after its separation from the Sun (chronicle of J. Malvetius).”
1540 Many people saw a star on the body of the Moon “right between the ends of her horns” (an old English chronicle).
1668 November 26“...A star appeared below the body of the Moon, inside her horns” (J. Josselyn. “Two Trips to New England,” 1675).
1737 March 1st. During a total eclipse of the Sun, a strange spot of light was observed on the disk of the moon in the region of the Sea of ​​Crises. The spot was visible as long as sunlight did not interfere.
1794 March 7. A mysterious light was spotted on the night side of the Moon (an old drawing is shown).
1874 Czech astronomer Safarik saw a luminous object moving across the lunar disk, which then left the Moon and flew into space.
1875. Astronomer Schröter observed a luminous spot on the Moon moving in a straight line from the Mare Mons to the north. A second similar spot appeared in the south. The estimated speed of their movement relative to the surface of the Moon was 63 mph (110 km/h).
1888 July 15. On the dark side of the Moon, in the northern part of the lunar Caucasus, Holden noticed a bright “star” of the first magnitude.
1910 From the territory of France, they observed how some kind of body similar to a rocket launched from the surface of the Moon.
1912 American astronomer Harris observed a dark object about 50 miles (80 km) moving around the Moon, and its shadow could be seen moving across the lunar surface.
1943 May. Morning. “Suddenly I hear one of the fighters shout: “Look, in the middle of the darkened Moon, a star is shining.” We looked, and sure enough: it was a month, and next to it there was a bright star. There was an uproar of surprise here, saying, how can a star shine through the Moon? And she suddenly began to move. Gradually it emerged from the lunar disk, went around it and began to move away... Everything described by me can be confirmed by my fellow soldiers who survived” V. Zaitsev.
1954 or 1955 October-November. 21-23 hours. Full moon. Moskvich V.I. Tikov, who was in the city of Ordzhonikidze, observed with the naked eye how some kind of elongated luminous point separated from the upper edge of the Moon and, turning sharply to the right, quickly flew around the right side of the Moon’s disk, after which it turned sharply again and connected with the lower part of the Moon. The entire observation lasted about 6 seconds, the trail from the flight lasted for another two seconds.
1955 May 24“Behind the southern horn of the narrow crescent [of the Moon], where the Sun touched the tops of the Leibniz region, there were two bright points. ...In addition, between them there was another light, weaker than the other two; but he jumped and sparkled; finally, a weak beam of light separated from it, which soared vertically into the sky above the Moon, flaring up as it rose and at the same time dying out at the base, and then disappeared. The total length of the beam without projection was about 100 miles (160 km), and it rose for 2 seconds, perhaps a little more... I tried to manipulate the image in the field of view of the telescope to see if a similar effect could arise only due to the optical properties of the instrument, but without success ; so the phenomenon seems to be real” (English astronomer V.A. Firsov).
1955 August 7-10 Observing the Moon through a homemade telescope, V.V. Yaremenko (Novocherkassk) witnessed how “a luminous body, similar to a 3rd magnitude star during normal observation, flew above the disk [of the Moon] parallel to its edge, at a distance of approximately 0.2 lunar radius. Having flown a third of the circle (it took 4-5 seconds), the body descended along a steep trajectory onto the lunar surface. Of course, this was not a projection of a meteorite falling to Earth. The body was quite large and... manageable! And no artificial satellites existed in those years.”
1959 F. Almor and other members of the Stellar Astronomical Society of Barcelona observed a dark ellipsoidal object that maneuvered 2000 km above the lunar surface and crossed the lunar disk in 35 minutes, after which it reappeared like a satellite. Its diameter was estimated at 35 km (W. Drake “Messengers from the Stars”).
1963 A group of astronomers at the Flagstaff Observatory (Arizona) observed 31 identical luminous objects on the Moon, each 5 km long and 0.3 km wide. These objects moved in a clear formation, and small objects with a diameter of about 150 m moved between them. In addition, giant domes were observed on the Moon that changed colors and had no shadow, as if absorbing sunlight.
1964 astronomers Harris and Cross observed a white spot over the Sea of ​​Tranquility for one hour moving at a speed of 32 km/h, which gradually decreased in size. In the same year, another spot was observed, moving for two hours at a speed of 80 km/h.
1967 Montreal astronomers observed a dark rectangular spot in the Sea of ​​​​Tranquility, moving from west to east.
Thus, from the examples shown, it is clearly seen that on the Moon in the pre-rocket period there were observations of very mysterious objects performing intelligent maneuvers. For example, the flyby of the Moon described by V.I. Timakov and V.V. Yaremenko, as noted by lunar phenomena researcher A.V. Arkhipov, requires amazing speeds of 1000 km/sec and accelerations of the order of 46’000 g. From the point of view of traditional rocketry and physics, this is simply impossible. Only UFOs observed in the atmosphere have similar properties.

is. 3. Sea of ​​Tranquility: Blair Cuspids. The anomalous structures are seven obelisks that clearly cast shadows from the morning sun. The largest obelisk is about 200 meters high. For obelisks 2 and 3, the shadows are curved, like a hockey stick. Anomalous structures may be interstellar ships, ancient ruins, or high cliffs. Materials Lunar Orbiter II LO2-61H3.gif (345k file).

According to NASA's Dr Richard Shorthill: "If cuspids were the result of a series of geophysical processes, then one would naturally expect the obelisks to be randomly distributed. In fact, based on the results of triangulation of the d system with coordinates x, y, z, regular geometric formations appear: right angles, six isosceles triangles and two axes consisting of three points each.”

The relevance of the search for ancient extraterrestrial artifacts on the surfaces of celestial bodies was pointed out by many authors (for example: A. Clark, I.S. Shklovsky, K. Sagan, J.W. Foster, A.R. Freitas, M.J. Carlotto, D. L. Holmes). The main goal of the research is to develop a methodology for searching for candidates for archaeological objects of the Moon and traces of intelligent beings, as well as compiling a catalog of the most interesting areas and objects for subsequent study.

Moon...secret zone

Doc. a film about the mysterious manifestations of alien civilizations on the Moon, Strange lights, unknown spaceships, UFOs. In short, we were given to understand that the Moon is already occupied. That is why, according to the authors of the film, all lunar programs were unexpectedly curtailed

The moon surprises with its riddles

A sensational article appeared in the American newspaper The New York Times: “A human skeleton was discovered on the Moon.” The publication refers to Chinese astrophysicist Mao Kang. It was he who, back in 1998, shocked the entire scientific world by presenting at a conference in Beijing a photo where the imprint of a human foot was clearly visible on the surface of the moon. Now the astrophysicist has presented the scientific world with photographs showing a human skeleton, reports www.znaemvce.ru.
It is technically possible to see such small details on the surface of the Moon. The capabilities of modern optics make it possible to read the texts of the headlines of newspapers spread on the ground from Earth orbit. But this is why the “reliable US source” cited by Mao Kann is in no hurry to officially release these photographs.
Back in the early 70s, the sensation spread throughout the world. The American Viking 1 satellite flew around Mars and received images from it where cone-shaped structures are clearly visible. Not far from them was a giant human face carved out of the rock. In appearance they were clearly of artificial origin.

All this did not fit with the generally accepted scientific concept and scientists unanimously decided that this was simply a natural phenomenon and a play of light and shadow. But still, talk about the fact that we are not the only ones in this universe did not subside among journalists and ordinary people. And there were reasons for this.
At the end of the 60s, Nobel Prize-winning researcher Pollack entered into the computer all the data about the planet Earth - the composition of the soil, atmosphere, cosmic and solar radiation, all physical parameters and all data known to science about living beings. He asked the computer a question: is protein life possible on a planet with such conditions? The computer's answer was clear: no. On a planet where the absolute solvent is water, which is in abundance and in which glass and all metals disintegrate over time, the emergence of a protein substance is not possible. The experiment was repeated later at the Kiev Institute of Cybernetics and the same result was obtained.

This question from Pollack to the computer was not accidental. A little earlier, scientists made an amazing discovery that all living creatures on our planet have one biological code. This was not possible according to the world-established theory of the origin of life and its evolution. But the fact remains a fact. And some scientists began to come to the conclusion that life on earth originated with the help of the Higher Mind. And planet Earth is something like a laboratory where more developed beings conduct genetic engineering experiments.

Those who laughed at all these conclusions really found it hard to laugh when astronaut Neil Armstrong, who saw the far side of the moon for the first time, shouted out, forgetting all the instructions, that he was seeing spaceships. The response from flight control was immediate; communication was interrupted. Subsequently, this exclamation was disavowed. Armstrong never mentioned spaceships again.
Let's look at what the Moon actually is, and most importantly, where it came from in our sky. Scientists astronomers have concluded that 20 thousand years ago it did not exist at all. They suggest that due to some kind of cosmic catastrophe, it left its orbit and fell into the Earth's gravitational field. But this explanation satisfies few people. Over many years of research, experts have not encountered wandering planets. There are many meteorites and comets, but there is no such thing as “living” planets wandering around. After all, there is volcanic activity on the Moon, which is why it is considered a “living” planet. Then the hypothesis was born that the Moon is nothing more than a spaceship controlled by someone. After all, the Moon’s position was very interesting. It turns around its axis so that we cannot see its reverse side. It is precisely on the side that we do not see that Armstrong noticed spaceships.
Chinese astrophysicist Mao Kann said that the Americans are deliberately hiding information from the public, calling their actions criminal. He accused the American government of hiding stunning facts, saying that they hid a photograph of a human footprint for 20 years, and a photograph of a human skeleton for even longer. He believes that such photographs are the property of all humanity.

The US space and intelligence services did not comment on the words of the Chinese astrophysicist. Even after he claims that he has more than 1000 photographs taken by NASA, where a footprint and a human skeleton are clearly visible. The most interesting thing is that there were no comments, and there was no refutation of this information from the responsible persons.
As mentioned above, today’s optical capabilities make it possible to discern the smallest details. So, examining photographs of the human skeleton, you can see that the person wore jeans during his lifetime. In an airless atmosphere, decomposition of body tissues is not possible. Thus, if a person died on the Moon, the entire corpse would be preserved, not the skeleton. Consequently, death occurred elsewhere, and somehow only one skeleton ended up on the Moon. Here one involuntarily recalls people’s stories about being abducted by aliens. In any case, Mao Kann has no doubt that these are photographs of a human footprint and a human skeleton and that extraterrestrial civilizations regularly interfere in our lives. But people will not know the whole truth until the Americans declassify the information they have and make it available to humanity, states Mao Kann.

The moon is another reality
