Richard Hoagland's book DARK MISSION

[Tyson]

"Unless of course you're a complete skeptic and are going to shoot holes in everything anyways."

Yeah, damn those people and their logic. If it weren't for skeptics, we could still believe that the Pheonix Lights were actually just the mothership from Independence Day like we wanted.

 

[voggmo]

Ah yes, the wonderful skeptics. Speed of sound one of their great triumphs. One wonders how backwards the human race would be if they were in charge. Ben Frank would've been laughed out of the country & who knows how long the wait would've been for electricity to be discovered.

I hope this thread is still open when my copy of DARK MISSION arrives from Amazon.

As long as things remain within the rules, I see no reason why it shouldn't remain open, Bad Bishop. Not yet, at least.

Folks, as I said, we're talking about the book, not the author. Please remember that.

^ There seems to be alot of sarcasm in this thread...I'm probably not going to get it until somewhere near Christmas time so lol hopefully this thread lasts another couple of months without us all getting into a fight!

 

[TerriO]

Oh, there's usually a lot of sarcasm around Hoagland. That's par for the course.

Hence the "discuss the message, not the messenger" reminder.

Is there a synopsis of what this book is about?

For most Americans, the word NASA suggests a squeaky-clean image of technological infallibility. Yet the truth is that NASA was born in a lie and has always concealed many truths about its occult origins.

Mystical organizations quietly dominate NASA, carrying out their own secret agendas behind the scenes. This is the story of men at the very fringes of rational thought and conventional wisdom, operating at the highest levels of our country. Their policies are far more aligned with ancient religions and secret mystery schools than the facade of rational science and cool empiricism NASA has successfully promoted to the world for almost fifty years. Dark Mission is proof of the secret history of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the astonishing, seminal discoveries it has repeatedly suppressed for decades.

So he's trying to cash in on the success of The DaVinci Code and write his own version in the hope people will buy it (pun intended).

IIRC, he's ben talking about this stuff since before The DaVinci Code became any sort of cultural phenom.

 

[MIB]

^Indeed. Hoagland has been all about this kind of stuff since long before Dan Brown became a household name.

Well, there's a difference between "show me some evidence" and "lollerskates electricity! Power from the sky? What an idiot". If Hogland has proof of his city on the moon that he's willing to publicly test (say by giving the coordinates so that amateur astronomers can look for it), there's no reason that I should take Hogland seriously.

I'm skeptical because he doesn't say anything testable on his website. I wouldn't be nearly as skeptical if he'd given me something to test.

He's been around quite a bit longer than that....book. As for the website, as someone whose studied a bit of the occult in my day, I'm definitely curious on his proof of the "occult origins" of NASA.

There is one big caveat they even put forth in their own introduction:

I mean, what’s to hide regarding moon rocks, craters and space radiation?
If we’re right, a lot.

If we're right...

That qualifier alone in the introduction strikes me as something that says they don't have enough evidence to prove the theories in their book. I'm already doubting the presentation of the premise, and I'm only 10 pages into the 20 page PDF excerpt linked on the site. The obvious fascination with Mars will have me checking it out, if only to see how it compares with his previous work, but the jumps in the thesis are a bit disconcerting.

^ The book actually looks really interesting...Richard is someone you have to take lightly but he does attempt to back up all of his sources and does consider himself a serious scientist. Maybe I'm biased because I listen to him alot on Coast to Coast but he does pose interesting theories about the space program. Not as outlandish though as say John Leer.

Hearing him on Coast to Coast is why I'm biased against him and associate the Looney Tunes theem with him.

Hello people. I will have to say this. I wonder if he PROVIDED The FACES OF MARS Images that he supposedly HAS in his possession, to show in his new Book? RCH & I were close until him & I had a falling out because of these Old Yet NEW Faces of Mars!

What am I talking about? What FACES OF MARS??

http://www.martianrevelation.com/NewFace1.png

http://www.martianrevelation.com/NewFace3.png

Now.. I bet your all wondering about these ay?
What does this have to do with Richard Hoagland??

Well, according to my investigation into these images, it seems it is & was RCH who has or had these images to provide Grizzly Adams Productions in the past to be filmed on a video made in 1992-1993!

I discovered.. these new Faces seen on this particular video. I have been investigating this for over a year now.
Alot of meat on the bone also.

Now if what the Producer & screenwriter both suggest is true, then Richard Hoagland has seen & known about more than one Face on Mars & has been keeping them secret. WHY?

Maybe he reveals them in his new book Dark Mission??
I have the audio clips with the people who in thier own words, state these images came from Richard.
he was also supposed to be on the set, with them in his hands.... but that never happened.

Here is the links to the clips of TESTIMONY & what I feel any & all should ask Hoagland simple questions regarding these images, & his part played in the creation of this video, as well as his knowledge of these images. YOU can raise these questions as it has merit to be asked!!!

You need real player to hear the clips. you do NOT wanna miss this IMPORTANT INFO!!

Then aso here...

The video itself....

Ponder this & ponder that, what the hell does Hoagland KNOW ABOUT ALL THAT???? Ask Him!!! Does he show & tell in his new book?

Don't judge a book by its cover--or 50% of an excerpt.

Have to say though, whatever the book's about, the /lie picture is just beautiful...
