#8  Well, look on the bright side: We may have been forced off the moon, but at least now there is proof that we actually did land there!

Putin ain't gonna like it, though. Planting the flag there means we own it.

#6  Sure, why not. Makes sense in a post-enlightened world, the aliens could be using Dan0-Nan0 technology. Enslaving thousands and thousands of tiny 3rd rate self-replicating TeeVee stars. Digg it Dan0!

#5  Good Lord, where to begin...once again Pravda digs up "evidence" that has been gone over and over and over by a host of so-called experts for decades. This article is so full of fatuous holes and factual holes that it;s like frikkin' looking at a piece of Swiss cheese.

There are a shitload of weird things connected with the moon landings and with images of the moon. There are a shitload of things weird about the fact that we have better resolution images of Mars than we do of certain (hell, practically the whole thing) areas of our own moon. There are a shitload of weird things about the transmissions received from the moon and the pictures we do have on hand that appear to show that there was somebody else up there and they didn't much like us poking about much.

However, this article in Pravda is laughingly obvious in its attempt to ignore the facts of the research done by imaging experts over the last few decades and to imply that certain other events might have occurred in an effort to make the US look like it turned tail and ran.

To be honest, if we were confronted with evidence, either archaeological or present, of an advanced alien civilization mining our moon for whatever purposes and they told us to buzz off for a few decades, I think we're wiser for having done it, if it occurred at all (and there's absolutely no evidence that it did though there is evidence that we may have found archaeological ruins of some sort up there).

We were not then in a position to object to an advanced civilizations' orders for us to "Go away!". We may not be today - but I postulate that "once you know a thing is possible, it's much more likely you're going to be able to discover how to do it yourself."

#4  Believe me, when the humans moved into my planet the property values declined substantially, you can't blame the lunarians from setting up covenants for their subdivisions.

#3  Well at least now we know where the fired "Weekly World News" employees landed.

#2  I'll have to view this skeptically, seeing how Weekly World News is no longer around to verify it. Maybe I'll head on over to Sorcha Faal's website...
