Astronomy Picture of the Day
NASA ^ | 4/17/10 | Apollo 13 Crew, NASA

Posted on 04/17/2010 5:26:12 AM PDT by sig226


Damage to Apollo 13
Credit:
Apollo 13 Crew, NASA

Explanation: After an oxygen tank exploded and crippled their service module, the Apollo 13 astronauts were forced to abandon plans to make the third manned lunar landing. The extent of the damage is revealed in this grainy, grim photo, taken as the service module was drifting away, jettisoned only hours prior to the command module's reentry and splashdown. An entire panel on the side of the service module has been blown away and extensive internal damage is apparent. Visible below the gutted compartment is a radio antenna and the large, bell-shaped nozzle of the service module's rocket engine. On April 17, 1970 the three astronauts returned safely to Earth.

Yeah, when posters are disappointed and respond with surliness

it is because they were robotically reflexive in their determinsitic no-choice responses.

It’s 100% always 100% the cause of the stimulus triggering the reflexive response.

Sure.

Impressive.

This picture strikes me as deeply symbolic of us and our nation as we stand right now. My mind is swimming in parallels.

They rode that ship almost half a million miles in that condition. Amazing.

Even more amazing is they did it with Forrest Gump in charge!

If you noticed, I quoted what he said and followed it with a nonsense question. I made no statement of fact that required substantiation.

I was jibing him for believing a mythos without firm evidence like the moon landing being faked but not trying to cause hurt feelings. I wasn’t trying to be sarcastic, maybe a winky face would have been appropriate.

I’d say they were VERY prepared in this case.

Anyway—it sounds like Hoagland is much more alert to the globalist oligarchy and their . . . connections with all the above, than I realized. That was an interesting tidbit I hadn’t known before.

I'm surprised that you did not know this about Hoagland.

He did extensive analysis in the past regarding NASA flights (their timing and destinations) and the connection with Masonic rituals and what he calls hyperdimensional physics. He has several chapters about this in his previous book, and used to have a lot on his website, but it has been deleted.

He has quieted down about this subject for some reason......

Paola Harris is right on the mark about the present day MSM.

I was not aware of her views on them.

AN=nd I agree with your assessment of her views of ETS/UFOS: they are not here To Serve Man;-)

Apollo 13: at 1300 hours on April 13, the catastrophe occurred. I remember it; the entire world was on eggshells, even the USSR offered helped. Prayers were offered from every nation for our astronauts safe return.

One of the few times in history that the world was as one.

Now a goodly portion of the world cheered when the Columbia burnt up because one of its astronauts was an Israeli.

Interesting . . . probably to stay alive . . . or because his handlers ordered him to.

Thx

Re Hoagland . . . I go through periods of being quite tired of the stuff and needing to keep tabs on it. And while I’ve always thought Hoagland had some accurate insights and facts . . . trying to weed out the chaff has always been a major chore with his stuff . . . one I don’t enjoy. So, I haven’t always kept close tabs on him every month.

INDEED.

Though those were not Paola Harris’ views. She keeps her own views very close to her chest and lets her interviewees speak for her . . .

That list of paragraphs was from . . .

Victor Viggiani

IN Paola’s

EXOPOLITICS: ALL THE ABOVE

However, from talking personally with her, and reading between some lines and some direct statements, it seems clear to me that she believes at least a major chunk of the critters are here to help us ‘advance to the next level,’ to ‘join the galactic Federation’ etc.

Sigh.

Yes, he is a Christian. When appearing on C2C and discussing the Nephillium and TransHuman genetics, he always puts a plug in for the Gospel.

Chuck Missler has also written about this.
