Apollo

The Apollo Program. The beginnings of this program led by Wernher Von Braun, the V2. A war time project. I say around 1944 or so.

I will say at this time that I completely understand the war against Germany. I have chosen sides, Germany before 1945.

25 years later. If Germany would of won the war, I say this launch would have been in Germany or even somewhere in Africa. Swastika flag on the rocket in all. A Nationalist Socialist program. An all German project with German speaking Astronauts. Funded by zero interest loans or even grants. Taxes not needed.

Wernher von Braun. Adolf Hitler called him “Professor”. After all, Wernher von Braun was part of the “Intelligentsia” class. A word used by Adolf Hitler.


The Apollo/V2 program was taken over by the “Allies” and brought to the USA. I am beginning to realize that the Apollo Lunar landings will be an unique event. We will never send people back to the Moon, Mars or elsewhere. No Lunar bases and no more manned missions beyond low Earth orbit.

That is why we are doing this 40 years later. Staying homebound.

NASA’s current missions. Conservative or even scaled back. http://www.nasa.gov/missions/current/index.html

Except for this mission. Proof we can really spend the money (in capitalist terms) if we need to. A program funded by interest bearing loans. If not a loan, then taxes. It is said these taxes are only to pay off the interest on the National debt. Taxes and loans are really one of the same. A strategy.

If I had my way, I have ideas of my own on where to send that mission.

I find it not unusual that NASA is totally ignoring the Centripetal Force rotating space station concept. This idea will really open up the Solar System to manned missions. I did a Google on the Rotating space station concept. I ended up with a college project run by students. I will look for this link later. I did come across the “It’s too difficult” excuse here and there.

There is a lot of stories on super advance propulsion projects. “Anti - Gravity” and such. But, this is just speculation and even disinformation. Disinformation avoiding the real basic issues like Rockets both liquid and Nuclear propelled. It’s very possible that we as Human Beings, Rocket propulsion is the best we can do. Not because we are dumb, it’s because we can only work with materials and energy sources found on Earth.

If there is any advance materials and energy sources out there, it’s only thru further exploration of the Solar System, manned or unmanned, that these sources can be found if there is any. Unless there was a past technological civilization here on Earth that has discovered advance propulsion technologies. This is also speculation and story telling at this time.

Another possibility. “Someone” else has already developed something better than Rockets. The Solar System is 4.5 Billion years old. Our present “high tech” civilization is only 160 years old, since the 1850s the beginnings of the Industrial Revolution.

A real unknown.

It is real because that object is emitting energy and effecting the surrounding atmosphere.





Maybe we can learn from “them”.
