The Time Before the Moon Part 2 The moon holds a significant relationship with the Earth: if there were no moon, our daily lives as humans would significantly change.The first and most obvious change would be during the nighttime. Nights would be unbelievably darker, as the moon provides light to the Earth during the night hours by reflecting light from the sun. Scientists suggest that without human-made lighting, we would not be able to see the hands in front of our face without the moon during the nighttime. However, not only would nights be darker, but our days would change as well.
Just as the Earth exerts a gravitational pull, the moon also exerts a gravitational pull on the Earth. The moon pulls on the Earth and slows down the Earth’s rotation. The moon’s pull creates a bulge near the Earth’s equator, which means there is a lower level of water at the poles. The Moon’s gravity causes the oceans on our planet to rise and fall. As the water moves, there is slight friction between the moving water and the spinning Earth. This friction causes the Earth’s rotation to slow slightly. If there was no moon, then the water might spread across the planet equally and reduce the amount of friction.
This means that the earth would not slow, which then means that the hours of our days would change. Suddenly, without the moon, our days would last between 6 and 12 hours, rather than the 24 hours we experience now. If our days became this short, then we would have significantly more days in our calendar year. Instead of 365 days in a year, we would have over a thousand.
Since the moon affects the altitude and movement of Earth’s water, our ocean tides would shrink. High tide occurs where the ocean bulges toward the moon, or where the moon pulls the ocean towards it. On the opposite side of our planet, the ocean bulges away from the moon, creating another high tide. The low tides occur on either side of the bulges. Remember that the Earth is rotating, so high tide becomes low tide as the Earth turns.
Scientists suggest that without the moon, tides would be 1/3 of the size they are now. High tides would be much smaller than they are now, and low tides would be even lower. This is because the sun would be influencing the tides, not the moon; however, the sun has a weaker pull, which would decrease the tides.
The change in the Earth’s rotational speed and a change in the Earth’s tilt would also affect the Earth’s weather patterns. If the moon slows down the Earth’s rotation, then the moon also affects the wind and wind speeds on our planet. Without the moon, we would see an increase in wind speeds. Winds could become much faster and much stronger without the moon.
Additionally, we might see a change entirely in seasons. The moon affects the angle of the Earth’s tilt. Currently, the Earth sits at a 23.5-degree tilt. This means our planet leans slightly to one side as it sits in space. The tilt creates what we know as seasons and changing weather. Without the pull of the moon, this tilt would change. Either the tilt would become extreme, leading to extreme and severe seasons, or the tilt would decrease, and we would see almost no seasons at all.
The moon influences life as we know it on Earth. It influences our oceans, weather, and the hours in our days. Without the moon, tides would fall, nights would be darker, seasons would change, and the length of our days would alter.
“Is The Moon the Creation of Alien Intelligence?”
In July 1970, two Russian scientists, Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, published an article in the Soviet journal Sputnik entitled “Is The Moon the Creation of Alien Intelligence?” They advanced the theory that The Moon is not a completely natural world, but a planetoid that was hollowed out in the far reaches of space by intelligent beings possessing a technology far superior to ours, using a comet to tow it to the Earth. Or maybe under its own power. Huge machines were used to melt rock and form large cavities within The Moon, spewing the molten refuse on the surface.
Protected by a hull-like inner shell plus a reconstructed outer shell of metallic rocky junk, this gigantic craft was steered through the cosmos and finally parked in orbit around the Earth.In their article Vasin and Shcherbakov wrote, “Abandoning the traditional paths of common sense, we have plunged into what may at first sight seem to be unbridled fantasy. The more minutely we go into all the information gathered about The Moon, the more we are convinced that there is not a single fact to rule out our supposition. Not only that, many things so far considered to be lunar enigmas are explainable in the light of this new hypothesis.”More Pyramids on the Moon because that sure doesn’t look like Egypt.
Outrageous as the spacecraft Moon theory might first appear, consider how this model reconciles all the mysteries of The Moon. It explains why The Moon gives evidence of being older than the Earth and perhaps even our solar system and why there are three distinct layers within The Moon, with the densest materials on the outside layer, as one would expect of the “hull” of a spacecraft would be. It could also explain why no sign of water has been found on the Moon’s surface, yet there is evidence it exists deep inside. This theory also would explain the strange maria and mascons, perhaps the remnants of the machinery used to hollow out The Moon. The idea of an artificial satellite could explain the odd, rhythmic “moon quakes” as artificial constructs reacting the same way during periods of stress from the Earth’s pull. And artificial equipment beneath the Moon’s surface might be the source of the gas clouds that have been observed.
A scientist called Irwin I. Shapiro who works at the Harvard Smithsonian Center for astrophysics said, “Looking at all the anomaly’s and unanswered questions about The Moon, the best explanation for The Moon is observational error, it doesn’t exist” Irwin I. Shapiro is a respected figure in astrophysics, his research includes using gravitational lenses to assess the age of the universe.
\A planet of our size with such a low gravitational field shouldn’t have such a big Moon. When we look at other planets with satellites, they are much larger than Earth, with a much stronger gravitational pull and their Moons are much smaller to them in comparison. From what I can see, our Moon is an anomaly, it shouldn’t be there. If Earth was to have a Moon it should be MUCH smaller, possibly 30 miles or so in diameter at the very most and not this giant in the sky that we see in the night.
If the precise and stationary orbit of The Moon is seen as sheer coincidence, is it also coincidence that The Moon is at just the right distance from the Earth to completely cover the Sun during an eclipse. While the diameter of The Moon is a mere 2,160 miles against the Sun’s gigantic 864,000 miles, it is nevertheless in just the right position to block out all but the Sun’s flaming corona when it moves between the Sun and the Earth. Asimov explained: “There is no astronomical reason why The Moon and the Sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidences, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion”.
Let’s consider the Moon’s orbit , it is nearly a perfect circle, but stationary, one side always facing the Earth with only the slightest variation. As far as we know, it’s the only natural satellite with such an orbit.
This circular orbit is especially odd considering that the Moon’s center of mass lies more than a mile closer to the Earth than its geometric center. This fact alone should produce an unstable, wobbly orbit, much like a ball with its mass off-center it will not roll in a straight line. Almost all the other satellites in our solar system orbit in the plane of their planet’s equator. Not so with The Moon, whose orbit lies strangely nearer the Earth’s orbit around the Sun or inclined to the Earth’s ecliptic by more than five degrees. Add to this that the Moon’s bulge, is located on the side facing away from Earth, thus negating the idea that it was caused by the Earth’s gravitational pull, makes for an off-balanced world.
Is it merely coincidence? How does one explain this and many other Moon mysteries?
” It is a shame that one small thing remains unaccounted for. One trifling thing I have ignored so far, WHAT IN BLAZES IS OUR MOON DOING WAY OUT THERE? It’s too far out to be a true satellite of Earth. It’s too BIG to have been CAPTURED by the Earth. The chances of such a capture having been effected and The Moon then having taken up a nearly circular orbit about the Earth are too small to make such an eventuality credible”.
” But, then, if The Moon is neither a true satellite of the Earth nor a captured one, what is it? ”
(Asimov on Astronomy Mercury Press, 1963.)Over the years, it has been scientifically observed that the Earth’s Moon holds some strange characteristics. It is believed to have been created by a giant impact between the young Earth and a Mars-sized body. After examination, it has been noted that The Moon is apparently in the wrong orbit for its size, according to its current assumed density. Astronomy data indicates that the internal regions of The Moon are less dense than the outer, giving rise to the inevitable speculation that it could be hollow. Some of these claims come from the fact that when meteors strike the Moon, it rings like a bell. When the Apollo crew, on November 20, 1969, released the lunar module, after returning to the orbiter, the module impact with The Moon causing the seismic equipment to register a continuous reverberation for more than an hour.
The Moon is far older than previously expected, maybe even older than the Earth or the Sun. The oldest age for the Earth is estimated to be 4.6 billion years old, while Moon rocks were dated at 5.3 billion years. The chemical composition of the dust upon which the rocks sit is remarkably different from the rocks themselves. This indicates that the lunar surface may have been moved from somewhere else and placed on The Moon. Some of the Moon’s craters originated internally, yet there is no indication that The Moon was ever hot enough to produce volcanic eruptions. Hundreds of moon quakes are recorded each year that cannot be attributed to meteor strikes. Some of the quakes seem to follow a specific schedule.
The moon’s crust is much harder than originally presumed. When NASA was recorded drilling down a few inches into the Moon’s surface, it appeared that metal shavings were visible. Earth’s Moon is the only natural satellite in the Solar System that has a stationary, near-perfect circular orbit. How does one explain the coincidence that The Moon is just the right distance, coupled with just the right diameter, to completely cover the sun during an eclipse? Professional astronomers have been gradually discouraged from investigating a phenomenon that has been reported on The Moon for 1,000 years. It is short-lived light, color, or other changes in the appearance of the lunar surface, referred to as Transient Lunar Phenomena.
Mathematical Impossibilities of the MoonAnother impossibility that has always been an embarrassment to the scientific establishment is the obvious fact that an object as heavy as The Moon, caught in the earth’s gravity, would inevitably come crashing down upon us at immense speeds. Responses to this argument from the Lunarists have always been weak, and always couched in that scientific news speak designed to confuse the sincere questioner without actually saying anything.
The establishment most often cites the work of Isaac Newton in support of its story. Newton is well-known for coming up with entirely theoretical notions such as the Law of Universal Gravitation, and his more famous Laws of Motion which serve to gloss over the more obvious inconsistencies in The Moon story. Less known for is his “extra-curricular” pursuits, which he kept secret during his lifetime which have since been uncovered. Newton was a dominating figure in the Royal Society, a fellowship riddled with members of the various secret societies whose goal to dominate the world has already been outlined. Newton himself possessed copies of Rosicrucian manifestos, and, is clear in his notes, had studied them thoroughly. Many of his biographers suspect that he shared the religious beliefs of many of his colleagues. It does not take a genius to conclude that these beliefs may have influenced his scientific reasoning.Humm, are those just thought bubbles above his head? Look Closely in his visor. Is there two people there?
The majority of scientists and professors of most universities are members of organizations such as these, as are most of the scientists who work for NASA. Those that are not realize that their livelihood depends on towing the establishment line, and only a few have had the courage to speak out.
However, eminent scientists, working in defiance of the establishment, have proven conclusively, using the most scrupulous methods, that if an object such as The Moon really existed, it could not remain fixed in the sky for very long. Proactive arguments in support of this finding return to a closer examination of the original mathematical formula generally referenced when rallying to solidify the moon’s improbable existence:
F = GMm/r2
Where F = gravitational attraction
G = the gravitational constant
M= mass of one body
m = mass of the second body
r= distance between the two bodies
Established by Newton himself, this numerical gem is based completely on the assumption that The Moon travels in concentric circles around our planet. F (the gravitational attraction holding The Moon to its “true” path) requires that r (the distance between the two celestial bodies) remains constant. Should the distance, r, decrease at any given moment, the gravitational force will increase in strength.
When this event occurs The Moon will be pulled towards this planet. According to Newton’s theory that a body set in motion remains in motion, such an incident would initiate a logical series of events with a singular chaotic result. Propagated drawing of satellite to planet until the two massive bodies collide.Garbage dump on the Moon
However, even the most fanatical Lunarists no longer cling to the absurd notion that objects in the solar system travel in concentric circles. These so-called “scientists” have changed their story so many times, who knows what to believe anymore? The now fashionable dogma is that the route followed by celestial bodies is not circular but a concave oval with the origin point at the center (in the case of the earth, the sun; in the case of The Moon, the earth) followed by a spiraling series of pathways. Thus, The Moon is not maintaining a constant distance from our planet. Our orbiting satellite is forever oscillating towards us, drawing near then distant, in a continuous cycle. Each successive approach brings this massive wonder closer to our midst.
In other words, The Moon does indeed alter its distance from the earth. So why is it not widespread knowledge that the end, mathematically predicated BY NEWTON’S OWN FORMULA, has been anticipated and is drawing near? Due to some irrational explanation The Moon has managed to defy those very laws of physics that were originally developed to prove its existence.
After hundreds of years of detailed observation and study, our closest companion in the vast universe, Earth’s Moon, remains an enigma. Six moon landings and hundreds of experiments have resulted in more questions being asked than answered.
Moon Mysteries
- Moon’s Age: The moon is far older than previously expected. Maybe even older than the Earth or the Sun. The oldest age for the Earth is estimated to be 4.6 billion years old; Moon rocks were dated at 5.3 billion years old, and the dust upon which they were resting was at least another billion years older.
- Rock’s Origin: The chemical composition of the dust upon which the rocks sat differed remarkably from the rocks themselves, contrary to accepted theories that the dust resulted from weathering and breakup of the rocks themselves. The rocks had to have come from somewhere else.
- Heavier Elements on Surface: Normal planetary composition results in heavier elements in the core and lighter materials at the surface; not so with The Moon. The abundance of refractory elements like titanium in the surface areas is so pronounced that several geologists proposed the refractory compounds were brought to the moon’s surface in great quantity in some unknown way. They don’t know how, but that it was done cannot be questioned. So let’s not say anything.
- Water Vapor: On March 7, 1971, lunar instruments placed by the astronauts recorded a vapor cloud of water passing across the surface of The Moon. The cloud lasted 14 hours and covered an area of about 100 square miles
- Magnetic Rocks: Moon rocks were magnetized. This is odd because there is no magnetic field on The Moon itself. This could not have originated from a “close call” with Earth, as such an encounter would have ripped The Moon apart.
- No Volcanoes: Some of the moon’s craters originated internally, yet there is no indication that The Moon was ever hot enough to produce volcanic eruptions.
- Moon Mascons: Mascons, which are large, dense, circular masses lying twenty to forty miles beneath the centers of the moon’s maria, are broad, disk-shaped objects that could be possibly an artificial construction. For huge circular disks are not likely to be beneath each huge maria, centered like bull’s-eyes in the middle of each, by coincidence or accident.
- Seismic Activity: Hundreds of Moon quakes are recorded each year that cannot be attributed to meteor strikes. In November, 1958, Soviet astronomer Nikolay A. Kozyrev of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory photographed a gaseous eruption of The Moon near the crater Alphonsus. He also detected a reddish glow that lasted for about an hour. In 1963, astronomers at the Lowell Observatory also saw reddish glows on the crests of ridges in the Aristarchus region. These observations have proved to be precisely identical and periodical, repeating themselves as The Moon moves closer to the Earth. These are probably not natural phenomena.
- Hollow Moon: The Moon’s mean density is 3.34 gm/cm3 (3.34 times an equal volume of water) where the Earth’s is 5.5. What does this mean? In 1962, NASA scientist Dr. Gordon MacDonald stated, “If the astronomical data are reduced, it is found that the data require that the interior of The Moon is more like a hollow than a homogeneous sphere.” Nobel chemist Dr. Harold Urey suggested the Moon’s reduced density is because of large areas inside The Moon where is “simply a cavity.” MIT’s Dr. Sean C. Solomon wrote, “the Lunar Orbiter experiments vastly improved our knowledge of the Moon’s gravitational field. Indicating the possibility that The Moon might be hollow.” In Carl Sagan’s treatise, Intelligent Life in the Universe, the famous astronomer stated, “A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object.”
- Moon Echoes: On November 20, 1969, the Apollo 12 crew jettisoned the lunar module ascent stage causing it to crash to the Moon. The LM’s impact (about 40 miles from the Apollo 12 landing site) created an artificial Moon quake with startling characteristics. The Moon reverberated like a bell for more than an hour. This phenomenon was repeated with Apollo 13 (intentionally commanding the third stage to impact The Moon), with even more startling results. Seismic instruments recorded that the reverberations lasted for three hours and twenty minutes and traveled to a depth of twenty-five miles, leading to the conclusion that The Moon has an unusually light, or has no core.
- Unusual Metals: The Moon’s crust is much harder than presumed. Remember the extreme difficulty the astronauts encountered when they tried to drill into the maria? Surprise! The maria is composed primarily illeminite, a mineral containing large amounts of titanium, the same metal used to fabricate the hulls of deep-diving submarines and the skin of the SR-71 “Blackbird”.
- Uranium 236 and neptunium 237 (elements not found in nature on Earth) were discovered in lunar rocks, so was rust-proof iron particles.
- Moon’s Origin: Before the astronauts’ Moon rocks conclusively disproved the theory, the Moon was believed to have originated when a chunk of Earth broke off eons ago. Another theory was the Moon was created from leftover “space dust” remaining after the Earth was created. Analysis of the composition of Moon rocks disproved this theory also. Another popular theory is The Moon was somehow “captured” by the Earth’s gravitational attraction. But no evidence exists to support this theory. Isaac Asimov, stated, “It’s too big to have been captured by the Earth. The chances of such a capture having been effected and The Moon then having taken up nearly circular orbit around our Earth are too small to make such an eventuality credible.
- “Weird Orbit: Our Moon is the only Moon in the solar system that has a stationary, near-perfect circular orbit. Stranger still, the Moon’s center of mass is about 6000 feet closer to the Earth than its geometric center (which should cause wobbling), but the Moon’s bulge is on the far side of The Moon, away from the Earth. “Something” had to put The Moon in orbit with its precise altitude, course, and speed.
- Moon Diameter: How does one explain the “coincidence” that The Moon is just the right distance, coupled with just the right diameter, to completely cover the sun during an eclipse? Again, Isaac Asimov responds, “There is no astronomical reason why The Moon and the sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidences, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion.”
- Spaceship Moon: As outrageous as The Moon Spacecraft Theory is, all the above items are resolved if one assumes that The Moon is a gigantic extraterrestrial craft, brought here eons ago by intelligent beings. This is the only theory that is supported by all the data, and there are no data that contradict this theory.
Well the craters can’t be only from impacts because many craters seem so shallow despite their size. Many scientists still wonder about this and based on the impact and size across the craters, the depth should be 4 to 6 times that deep. They defy known science. Take Bailly for example. This crater is about 303 miles across but only 4 to 5 miles deep.
The Moon is extremely dry and does not appear to have ever had water in any substantial amounts. None of The Moon rocks, regardless of where they were found, contained free water or even water molecules bound into the minerals. Yet Apollo 16 astronauts found Moon rocks that contained bits of rusted iron. Since oxidation requires oxygen and free hydrogen, this rust indicates there must be water somewhere on The Moon.
Experts were surprised to find lunar rocks bearing brass, mica and amphibole in addition to the near-pure titanium. Uranium 236 and Neptunium 237, elements not previously found in nature, were discovered in Moon rocks, according to the Argone National Laboratory. While still trying to explain the presence of these materials, scientists were further startled to learn of rust-proof iron particles in a soil sample from the Sea of Crisis. In 1976, the Associated Press reported that the Soviets had announced the discovery of iron particles that “do not rust” in samples brought back by an unmanned Moon mission in 1970. Iron that does not rust is unknown in nature and well beyond present Earth technology.
