Hereford Mappa Mundi: Legendary Cities, Monstrous Races, and Curious Beasts in a Single World Map2/25/2022 Secreted away beneath the floor of an English cathedral was a large calfskin canvas featuring what, at first glance, appeared to be a map of the world. Once recovered and repaired, the map was found to date to 1285. While a myriad of cities and towns are depicted on the medieval Mappa Mundi, more than 500 ink drawings illustrate biblical events, exotic plants and animals, wild and strange creatures, and classical myths. More than just a map, the “Cloth of the World” remains one of the greatest surviving artworks of the Middle Ages. Known as the Hereford Mappa Mundi, medieval artwork showcasing history, religion, and mythology is depicted in intricate detail on a single sheet of vellum, or preserved calfskin. The skin stretches five feet high by four feet across, and is attached to an oak frame. The remarkable artifact remains the largest medieval map still known to exist. The tangled ink illustrations of black, gold, green and blue, reflect a medieval European understanding of the known world at the time—and also the unknown world of the supernatural— highlighting not just the human world of men, cities and seas, but entire bestiaries of horrifying mythical creatures and the strange cultures of distant lands. It was not for use as a navigational tool, but instead was an artistic compendium of people, parables, and places. The Hereford Mappa Mundi. Public Domain Towns and Cities Most obvious is the cartography of the Mappa Mundi. East is found at the top of the map, as this orientation represented the rising of the sun and the second coming of the Christ. The world is laid out in a circle, and because of its Christian framework, Jerusalem sits at its center, a common theme in medieval mapmaking. At the very middle of the map a small hole has been pierced where a compass-like instrument was used to create a perfect circle which became an image of a fortified wall with eight towers. Continents included are Asia, Africa, Europe and the Mediterranean. Approximately 420 towns and cities of the day are represented on the map, such as Rome and Paris (and Hereford), as well as oceans and important landmarks.

The Babylonian map of the world sheds light on ancient perspectives Codex Gigas (the Devil’s Bible) - the largest manuscript in the world Myths and Legends Eight classical legends are included on the elaborate map. The Golden Fleece as quested for by Jason and the Argonauts is found drawn on the coast of the Black Sea. The Cretan Labyrinth which bound the mythical Minotaur is depicted on the vellum. It was a recognizable symbol in the Middle Ages, as labyrinths were laid out on floor paving of cathedrals. These winding pathways acted as spiritual pilgrimages for the faithful. In classical myth, the Columns of Hercules represented the western edge of the known inhabited world. This is marked on the Mappa Mundi at the Strait of Gibraltar. Even the camp of Alexander the Great is illustrated on the map. Legends of the deeds and successes of the heroic leader were popular with scholars at the time. Alexander’s camp is shown as many tall tents, and a strong wall runs along his camp, which Alexander was thought to have built to repel and imprison the “destructive evil of the Sons of Cain.” The area below this is attributed to the “Scythian races”, and as knowledge of this region was limited, the area is decorated with dramatic and wild images. Bible Stories Jesus is found at the very top of the map, highlighting his significance and importance in the Christian faith. Along his right, people travel from death into heaven, and on his left, the damned are chained and dragged off to Hell, represented by a beast’s gaping maw, including sharp teeth and glaring eyes. 15 bible stories are illustrated on the Mappa Mundi. The Garden of Eden, including Adam, a serpent, and Eve, is found near the top. Eden is surrounded by a ring of fire, signifying that it is off limits to humanity. A boat filled with creatures and a bearded man represents the tale of Noah’s Ark. The largest building on the map is the five-story city of Babylon. The topmost structure is labelled the “Tower of Babel.” The sheer size of the elaborate drawing, as well as the details of the text on the map, emphasize the arrogance and pride of the people who were said to build a tower so high that it might challenge god. In the biblical legend, God’s punishment ultimately caused humanity to speak in different languages. On the map a long, curving line cuts a path through a red-ink Red Sea, depicting the travel route of the Israelites in the story of Exodus. Detail showing the British Isles. Public Domain Many natural and unnatural creatures abound on the Hereford Mappa Mundi. Animals less well-known to medieval Europeans, such as camels or elephants, were drawn with some success on the map. A camel with two humps is located south of the Memarnau Mountains. Bestiaries (books of beasts) of the time described camels as living for one hundred years, and being only able to drink muddy water. Elephants are drawn wearing constructed wooden towers, as the large animals were fitted with these fighting platforms for use in warfare by Indian and Persian soldiers. It was believed even then that elephants fear mice. A winged salamander seems to fly its way across the Hereford Mappa Mundi. Gianni D'Anna/Flickr The legendary unicorn is depicted on the map, with a single, long horn. Named Monoceros, the unicorn was often linked to Jesus. It was reputed to be strong enough to battle elephants, but could be tamed by innocent and virtuous young women. 33 different animals, exotic plants and birds are described in ink on the Mappa Mundi. A lynx depicted on the Hereford Mappa Mundi, with sharp teeth and claws. Gianni D'Anna/Flickr Monstrous Strangers Various strange and wonderful people are represented on the map, both real and unreal. Likely due to exaggerated traveler tales of dangerous foreign cultures, 32 images include outrageous people, such as the Blemmye; a war-like race of people with no heads, and with facial features in their chests. Ancient Maps spark debate between China and Philippines over South China Sea islands The Evolution of Sea Monsters on Medieval Maps The unidentified flying objects in the sky of the Summer’s Triumph Tapestry A Blemmyae from the Nuremberg Chronicle, 1493. Public Domain Sciapods, or Monoculi, are found on the map. Tales of these scary beings with a giant, single foot included theories on how they were able to move quickly on their one leg. They were believed to use their large foot to shield themselves from the sun. Mysterious and dangerous cave dwellers, or Troglodytes, are drawn in Africa on the map. Three of these men are depicted in caves, and one rides a strange goat beast. They appear to eat snakes and run around naked. The map text describes Troglodytes as very swift men who catch wild animals by jumping onto their backs. Troglodytae were an ancient group of people from the African Red Sea coast as described by Greek and Roman historians, including Herodotus, Strabo and Pliny. These anecdotes eventually turned into mythical feats and wild characteristics. Have Pity on Richard Created in the late 13th century by a team of scholars, but attributed to a man named “Richard of Haldingham and Lafford,” the large map hung for years on the wall of a cathedral in Hereford, England. Unusual for a medieval map, reference to the mapmaker, Richard, was noted in the bottom left corner. Translated, the passage reads: Let all who have this history,Or shall hear or read or see it,Pray to Jesus in His Divinity,To have pity on Richard of Haldingham and Lafford,Who has made and planned it,To whom joy in heaven be granted. The map was hidden away during times of political uncertainty and war, languishing under floorboards and forgotten in secret locations, until 1855 when it was cleaned and repaired at the British Museum. It now sits in a glass case on display at a new library in Hereford. The Hereford Mappa Mundi has survived 700 years, preserving and illustrating the beliefs, knowledge and traditions of medieval Europe. It remains one of the most significant historical maps in the world. The Mappa Mundi Hereford Cathedral website has an interactive map available here, illuminating some of the countless images found in the medieval artwork.

Listen to the video below and decide for yourself. Saturn is calling you. Source: http://www.ufosightingsdaily.com This is a video lecture by Jack Otto of Forbidden Knowledge fame. He gives his understanding on the hidden history of the Khazar empire, the Illuminati, banking cartel and their links to the New book The Thirteenth Tribe, Ashkenazi Jew Arthur Koestler documented the history : This book traces the history of the ancient Khazar Empire, a major but almost forgotten power in Eastern Europe, which in A.D. 740 converted to Judaism. Khazaria, a conglomerate of Aryan Turkish tribes, was finally wiped out by the forces of Genghis Han, but evidence indicates that the Khazars themselves migrated to Poland and formed the craddle of Western (Ashkenazim) Jewry… The Khazars’ sway extended from the Black sea to the Caspian, from the Caucasus to the Volga, and they were instrumental in stopping the Muslim onslaught against Byzantium, the eastern jaw of the gigantic pincer movement that in the West swept across northern Africa and into Spain. Thereafter the Khazars found themselves in a precarious position between the two major world powers: the Eastern Roman Empire in Byzantium and the triumphant followers of Mohammed. As Arthur Koestler points out, the Khazars were the Third World of their day, and they chose a surprising method of resisting both the Western pressure to become Christian and the Eastern to adopt Islam. Rejecting both, they converted to Judaism. The second part of Mr. Koestler’s book deals with the Khazar migration to Polish and Lithuanian territories, caused by the Mongol onslaught, and their impact on the racial composition and social heritage of modern Jewry. He produces a large body of meticulously detailed research in support of a theory that sounds all the more convincing for the restraint with which it is advanced. Mr. Koestler concludes: “The evidence presented in the previous chapters adds up to a strong case in favour of those modern historians – whether Austrian, Israeli or Polish – who, independently from each other, have argued that the bulk of modern Jewry is not of Palestinian, but of Caucasian origin. The mainstream of Jewish migrations did not flow from the Mediterranean across France and Germany to the east and then back again. The stream moved in a consistently westerly direction, from the Caucasus through the Ukraine into Poland and thence into Central Europe. When that unprecedented mass settlement in Poland came into being, there were simply not enough Jews around in the west to account for it, while in the east a whole nation was on the move to new frontiers” ( page 179, page 180). “The Jews of our times fall into two main divisions: Sephardim and Ashkenazim. The Sephardim are descendants of the Jews who since antiquity had lived in Spain (in Hebrew Sepharad) until they were expelled at the end of the fifteenth century and settled in the countries bordering the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and to a lesser extent in Western Europe. They spoke a Spanish-Hebrew dialect, Ladino, and preserved their own traditions and religious rites. In the 1960s, the number of Sephardim was estimated at 500000. The Ashkenazim, at the same period, numbered about eleven million. Thus, in common parlance, Jew is practically synonymous with Ashkenazi Jew.” In Mr. Koestler’s own words, “The story of the Khazar Empire, as it slowly emerges from the past, begins to look like the most cruel hoax which history has ever perpetrated.” As expected, The Thirteenth Tribe caused a stir when published in 1976, since it demolishes ancient racial and ethnic dogmas…At the height of the controversy in 1983, the lifeless bodies of Arthur Koestler and his wife were found in their London home. Despite significant inconsistencies, the police ruled their death a suicide… Order. The Khazars were a Turkic people who originated in Central Asia. The Khazar empire is located north of the Caucasus mountains region. It was on an English TV in 1977 in this program: http://www.crowdedskies.com/tony_dodd_alternative3.htm From what William Cooper said, there would have been a joint American-Russian mission. (And possibly helped by alien beings see "ALIENS MEET SOME GOVERNMENT PEOPLE" video). W. Cooper stated that after this mission ,they knew mars "could support life", then the year after ,the project of establishing a colony (on the ground or in a station) began later. You might see in the document "TRAVEL IN THE TIME AND THE GALAXY" a station with an American flag close to mars, this "was in 1976". Jewish Rabbi Eliyahu of Vilna, Rabbi Elijah ben Shlomo Zalman (1720-1797) known as the Gra, or the “Vilna Gaon” It was in the year of 1720 that a young prodigy and genius was born. The Gaon (Hebrew for “genius”), Rabbi Elijah ben Shlomo Zalman was to become the most influential Jewish leader in modern history. He would be known as the most renowned Ashkenazi Torah authority in the past thousand years. His vast skills in memorization, his extraordinary talents, great wisdom and his comprehension of all branches of Torah and secular knowledge were early recognized. By the age of seven, he gave his first public discourse on the Torah demonstrating an intellect that was fully developed to abstract thinking as an adult. By the age of ten years, his wisdom in the understanding of the Torah was so renowned for he no longer could find a teacher with the command of the Torah as he. Known as “The Gra”, this prodigious Torah giant set the standard of Torah study, absolute devotion to G-d and a character perfection emulated by centuries of later students of his manuscripts and books. Authentic Picture of the Vilna Gaon, Rabbi Elijah ben Shlomo Zalman According to the enlightening article in the Jewish Virtual Library called the “Vilna Gaon – Rabbi Eliyahu of Vilna” we read that at a very young age, the young rabbi went into a self-imposed “galus” or exile where he wandered from community to community as a beggar and sage. For forty years, he studied in isolation. To the Gaon, the Torah was paramount and primary to all other studies. According to the Gaon’s son’s testimony, his father did not sleep more than two hours in a twenty four hour period for over fifty years. His memory and biblical knowledge was legendary, for he had no peers equal among the sages for the breadth for this knowledge included both revealed and hidden Torah knowledge. Yet he was also knowledgeable in secular sciences including authoring books on grammar and mathematics. His yeshiva, (academy of Torah study) was the premier yeshiva of the world for over 100 years and recognized as the model of all subsequent seminaries of Torah studies. After forty years of studying in isolation, he finally settled in the town of Vilna. Living a quiet life, his fame as a Tzaddik (righteous man) and Torah scholar soon spread all over the land. In spite of a life of poverty, he gave 20% of all his income to charity and even would limit his own personal needs so he could marry an orphan girl or redeem a captive. Though in constant study, his ear was also kept to the needs of the local population. He began a local yeshiva, accepting students from the renown Torah scholars of that ere and from the writings of these students, scholars today are given a glimpse of the rare breadth of intellect that the Gra upheld. Rabbi Moshe Shturnbuch: The Great Grandson of the Gaon of Vilan osb’m Today, the Grand Rabbi Moshe Shturnbuch is the great grandson of the Gaon of Vilna osb’m and is a Edah Charedit, an Ultra-Orthodox Haredi Jew. Today Rabbi Shturnbuch (Sternbuk) is the Raavad or the Vice-President of the Rabbinic Court and eligible to become the Chief Rabbi (Gaavad) if the present Chief Rabbi Yitzchok Tuvia Weiss were to decease or could not fulfill his responsibilities of the Haredi Rabbinic Court. As reported by Rabbi Lazer Brody with Lazer Beams in late March, 2014, titled, “Rabbi Moshe Shternbuch: We Hear the Footsteps of Moshiach”, we read; Rabbi Lazer Brody – “Rav Shternbuch received a closely guarded secret that came to him from Rabbi Yitzchak Chever zatza”l, who received it from Rabbi Chaim of Volozhyn zatza” l, who received it from the Gaon of Vilna himself, who revealed it shortly before his death: “When you hear that the Russians have captured the city of Crimea, you should know that the times of the Messiah have started, that his steps are being heard. And when you hear that the Russians have reached the city of Constantinople (today’s Istanbul), you should put on your Shabbat clothes and don’t take them off, because it means that the Messiah is about to come any minute.” Russian President Vladimir Putin visiting Crimea for the first time since Annexing Crimea for the Victory Day Celebrations in Sevastopol marking the defeat of Nazi Germany So today, for those with “eyes that can see” are standing on the cusp of awaiting for the Messiah son of David (Moshiach ben Dovid) to come, but in reality the time of the Guela (days of Redemption) is already upon us. As Dov Bear Barleib commented on Rabbi Brody’s blog, we read: Dov Bear Barleib – “The Gog ben Gog Shmittah (Gog-Magog) cycle came and went without Geulah because too many of the enablers of the Gush Katif fiasco (2005) were observant Jews. They successfully delayed the Geulah one and only one full Shmittah cycle to the Cycle of the half Xtian/ half Muslim (half iron and half clay) 11th horn dude from the Book of Daniel, the Obamanation that makes desolate. Gavriel the Angel then vows at the very end of the Book of Daniel that that last Shmittah cycle will not pass without Mashiach coming at the end of that last seven years. The 7th year or the Sabbatical year begins in 6 months (Rosh Hashanah 5774 or 2015). We are now 18 months until the end of that Shmittah cycle (Rosh Hashanah 2008 to Rosh Hashanah 2015 in the Jewish year 5775).” The prospects for the true arrival of the era of the Messiah to finally be upon us appears also to be associated with the conquest of ancient Constantinople, or Istanbul today. As Dov Barleib wrote concerning the Statue of Nebuchadnezzar, we are in the era of the legs of the statue that were made of legs of iron and clay. This concept of ten toes of iron and miry clay (ceramic) collaborates less with Vatican Rome’s Christian notion that the two legs of the image were the Western Roman Empire in Vatican Rome and Eastern Byzantine Roman Empire in Constantinople. Instead it merges beautifully with the Jewish and Islamic understanding that at the end of days, the last major forces will be Islam and the Amalekites that harassed the Children of Israel as they were traveling towards the Promised Land, and later had to fight in the days of King Saul and King David. This converges with the Shiite understanding in the Islamic hadiths that during the last days, the Islamic forces of the Bani-Israelite Pashtun Tribes will rise up with the Islamic Mahdi (Islamic Messiah, Isi ben Mariam) to confront the Dajjal, the Islamic anti-Messiah. So, who is this Islamic anti-Messiah called the Dajjal? The modern understanding in the eyes of the Muslim people is that the Dajjal is NATO Rome fronted by the power the Greater Satan, the aerial power of the United States. Istanbul and the Church of the Hagia Sophia As BibleSearchers Reflections wrote five years ago in 2009, “The Durrani Pashtun Afghan Bani-Israel Empire and its Legacy: The Islamic Messiah, the Madhi and the anti-Messiah, the Dajjal.” BibleSearchers Reflections – “The “Battle Axe” of G-d, the Lost Tribes of Israel who were implanted as the Pashtuns of Afghanistan, will become the predominate counter insurgents against the global forces of the West and the Vatican that are seeking world domination. Let us read this interesting and tantalizing fact: Hadhrat (“Great Presence”) Buraidah (R.A.) narrated by Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: "There will be many armies after me. You must join that army which will come from Khurasaan." (Ibn Adi) The mystery gets deeper as we begin to realize that the Islamic messiah called “The Mahdi” will be hidden, like Osama ben Laden was for many years, in the midst of the Afghani tribal forces of the Pashtun tribes. As we will later read, one of most important objectives of the Mahdi’s Army will be to head towards Jerusalem. This army, according to this following Hadith will be that the first Islamic army to attack from the Muslim world will be from the Bani Ishaq [Sons of Isaac or the Children of Israel (Bani-Israel)]. It appears that the first attack will be on the city of Istanbul (Constantinople). This military attack against the former capital of the Byzantine (Eastern Roman) Empire will cause the fall of that great city. Istanbul will be spared looting and desecration for suddenly the news will arrive that the Dajjal (False or Anti-Messiah) will have arrived in the region. Suddenly the Mahdi’s forces will “leave everything there and would turn to him the Dajjal or the anti-Messiah)”, and head back to Damascus to find the False Messiah. Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) saying: “You have heard about a city the one side of which is in the land and the other is in the sea (Constantinople). They said: Allah's Messenger, yes. Thereupon he said: “The Last Hour would not come (time of the end) unless seventy thousand persons (warriors) from Bani lshaq (Sons of Isaac) would attack it. When they would land there, they will neither fight with weapons nor would they shower arrows but would only say:" There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest," that one side of it would fall. Thaur (one of the narrators) said: “I think that he said: ‘The part by the side of the ocean. Then they would say for the second time: "There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest" that the second side would also fall, and they would say: "There is no god but Allah and Allah is the Greatest," that the gates would be opened for them and they would enter therein and, they would be collecting spoils of war and distributing them amongst themselves that a noise would be heard and It would be said: Verily, Dajjal (False or Anti-Messiah) has come. And thus they would leave everything there and would turn to him (the Dajjal or the anti-Messiah). (Saheh Muslim)." The Hurva (Churvah) Synagogue (Israel’s National Synagogue) rebuild in 1864 by the Disciples of the Vilna Gaon and again in 2010 after Blown up by Jordan in 1948; preparing Jerusalem for the Revealing of the Jewish Messiah, Maschiach ben Dovid The new prophetic insight from the Vilna Gaon as to the final days is eye-revealing in that Istanbul, the capital of Turkey today is a NATO partner with the European Union and the United States. Now as the capital of Turkey, and also a NATO partner, this august city, may soon may be recognized by the Islamic Mahdi as part of the anti-Messiah system called the Dajjal. At the same time, if the Lost Pashtun Bani-Israelites in Khorasan do invade ancient Constantinople, it may be in collaboration with Putin’s Russia, who, with China is already the backbone of the Islamic nuclear program in Iran and Assad’s genocidal Syria. So will Putin’s Russia along with China seek to destroy or take possession of one of NATO strong military friends and assets? Why would Putin want to invade Constantinople or Istanbul today? Even though the State of Turkey appears in western eyes to be an Islamic State, it was a founding member of the United Nations in 1945, was elected as a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council in 2008 and a permanent member on January 1, 2009. Turkey as the second largest standing armed force in NATO after the American armed forces. They have almost a half a million forces that can be deployed. Out of 26 nations that are a part of NATO, only five NATO members are a part of the nuclear sharing policies of the alliance; Belgium, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and Turkey. Not only that the “Crown Jewel” of Turkey’s military is the Incirlik Air Base that today hosts 90 American B61 nuclear bombers of which 40 are dedicated for the Turkish Air Force so that in the presence of a nuclear conflict with the permission of NATO, 40 of those bombers are dedicated for the Turkish Air Force. In other words, Turkey is the gateway from the Far East, Near East and Middle East to Western Europe. No wonder Putin would covet control of Istanbul and the Islamic Mahdi would seek to wrestle the military assets of the “Crown Jewel” of NATO for the Islamic forces of Allah. If the abduction of the Crimean Peninsula, once the stronghold of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel during the 4th to the 1st century BCE and today now annexed by Russia is permanent, then what would it take to invade Istanbul and take possession of the once august capital of the Eastern Roman Empire in Constantinople? Would this be a part of the Russian’s ruthless bid to take possession of NATO’s “Crown Jewel”, the city of Istanbul while entering the heartland of the Islamic world at the Straits of the Dardanelles? Then we might ask, would the 70,000 man army of the Mahdi also be a part of a bi-polar thrust to lock down NATO’s military assets that it is using in Turkey to support the greater war to come, as the military assets of the globalists of America and the European Union confront the military assets of the globalists seeking world dominion over Russia and China. Who better, than Russia and America, would be at the fulcrum of this coming global war than the Great War between the Oriental and the Occidental worlds as shown to the Prophet Daniel in chapter 8 called the “Prophecy of the Ram and the He Goat” in Destination Yisrael’s blog titled, “World War III looms on the Horizon as the War of Daniel 8 is about to Erupt with Great Fury when Iran confronts America”? With the collapse of Istanbul to the Islamic forces of the Mahdi, why is the anti-Messiah, called by Islam as the Dajjal suddenly now appearing in Damascus? Why do the forces of the Mahdi suddenly withdraw without taking full possession of the Eastern capital of ancient Rome and plunder her ancient treasures? The major land bridge to invade Iran from the west is Turkey. With Turkey in the hands now of Russia, and Saudi Arabia and the Arab Oil States now prepared to go alone without America to topple Shiite Iran, the only aerial land bridge from the west will have to be through Israel, Syria and Jordan. This is how the He-Goat from the west, as seen by the Prophet Daniel from the Persian palace of Shushan in vision, “el-al” flew over the land from one end of the earth to the other as he confronted the Persian Ram empowered by the might of its two great horns, Russia and China. As the “Crown Jewel” of NATO appears to be in the hand of the Islamic messiah, The Mahdi, the Bani-Israelite forces quickly retreat and head directly to Damascus preparing to confront the Dajjal, the military forces of NATO and the United States. Will Obama’s American forces, fronting for the Shabbatean Rothschild forces of the Illuminati, now be there prepared to take possession of Damascus, the capital of Syria, where President, Bashar Assad has killed over 150,000 of its own people? This is the Syrian civil war where many Syrians were killed by chemical weapons of mass destruction given by Saddam Hussein to Syria, and now were unleashed upon Syria's own peoples? If the Vilna Gaon, one of the greatest rabbinic minds in Jewish history was given a prophetic message almost 250 years ago witnessing the annexation of the land of Crimea to the Russian Federation, then maybe we might want to take a second look at our lives and see if we are prepared to witness the catastrophic events about to be unleashed upon Planet Earth at the “time of the End”? Prepare your hearts for what may be ahead in our lives as revealed by the Tzaddiks, the Righteous Jewish Sages of Judah. The majestic natural satellite has been the source of curiosity of countless people. It brightens up our dark nights and provides a way to navigate for our ancestral fathers. But over the years, as our understanding of the space has increased, we found some astonishing information about the moon that led to more questions than answers. Is the moon actually Earth's natural satellite? The new information has led to speculation that it might actually be an extraterrestrial technology transported here to survey mankind's progress and the impact we have on planet Earth, or maybe something entirely different. The reason why the moon was brought here remains to be a huge source of speculation, something we will hopefully find out in the near future, but for now we have the following information that dispels the previous notion that it is a natural planetary body: 1. The Moon Predates the Earth It was initially believed that the moon was formed when an external body crash-landed on Earth. A part of the debris from the crash accumulated into what we now know as the moon. There is yet another theory stating that when Earth was formed, the remaining dust came together to form a heavenly body that revolves around the Earth. However, when surface materials from the moon were brought back to Earth by the astronomers, the results led to startling discoveries, as the moon rocks and dust predated our planet, which is around 4.53 billion years old. The material comprising the moon turned out to be around 5.3 billion years old and the dust even older, dating to about 6.3 billion years. Hence, the moon must have originated somewhere else. 2. The Moon’s Density We know for a fact that the Earth’s density is 5.5 gm/cm3. Surprisingly, the moon’s density was found to be 3.34 gm/cm3, around 3.34 times the density of an equal volume of water. This was explained by the renowned NASA scientist, Dr. Gordon Macdonald in 1962. He stated that if our astronomical data is to be deduced, we come to the conclusion that the interior of the natural satellite is hollow. 3. Moonquakes A few years after Dr. Gordon Macdonald’s theory came to be, in 1969, the team of Apollo 12 landed on the moon. During their decent, they landed in a rough manner onto the moon’s surface, around 40 miles from their intended destination. The crash resulted in an artificial moonquake, which had startling characteristics. Upon impact, the moon started to reverberate just like a bell would, which we all know is hollow. The reverberations lasted for more than an hour. The same phenomenon was again witnessed when Apollo 13 landed on the moon and its impact caused an even greater seismic activity, which lasted for more than three hours. This led to the conclusion that the moon is unnaturally light for its size and possibly doesn’t even have a core, which would otherwise significantly increase its weight. 4. An Unnaturally Perfect Orbit We all know that the moon orbits around our planet in an almost perfect circular orbit, but still technically elliptical. This unnatural orbit couldn't have been captured by Earth’s gravitational force, as we can clearly see in the substantially elliptical orbits of the other satellites in our solar system. This further fuels the speculations that the moon was placed in its current position and orbit by an intelligent mind. 5. A Stationary Orbit Another weird thing about our moon is that its orbit around the Earth is completely stationary. Meaning that it doesn’t spin on its own axis as all of the other moons in our solar system do. This is why every time we look up at the moon, we see the same side of it — the side that faces Earth. 6. Unexplainable Center of Mass and Geometric Center Another thing about the moon we have been unable to scientifically understand is the discrepancy in its center of mass, which is around 6,000 feet closer to our planet than its geometric center. This discrepancy should, according to our understanding, cause the moon to constantly wobble — yet, it remains steady. Conclusion Since we have discovered all of these discrepancies with the moon, we have been constantly trying to figure out how it maintains its uniquely circular orbit, without a spinning axis and without wobbling. However, despite all of our efforts to understand these anomalies, we have yet to come up with a conclusive answer. The hypothesis that highly advanced extraterrestrials have hollowed out the moon and placed it in an almost perfect orbit around our planet, gives birth to even more wild speculations. We know for a fact that the moon is primarily responsible for the tides, seasons and even some earthquakes. The moon is also known to influence our sleep and even our mood. So we can draw the conclusion that the aliens that brought it here knew exactly what they were doingand it was part of their agenda to influence life on Earth via the moon space station. It has also been speculated that Earth is now a prison planet and the moon a space station for alien guardians. Even more interestingly, author David Icke has speculated that the moon is an important part of the matrix deception that kept mankind enslaved for millenia. A resident of St. Augustine in Florida caught a strange object with his security camera. Source: Mufon One backpacker was traveling through a rural part of Romania. He allegedly discovered a secret illegal location that was operated by traffickers. The location itself was guarded, yet somehow this person managed to smuggle a camera inside. Who knows what other random and disturbing experiments have been going here, while it was still in operation. The general public had no idea what was going on here for quite some time. Little did they realize the kind of exhibits that were on display here. The video begins with the seen backpacker explaining about the zoo here. The place has deformed animals caged up in what look like sheds. After a short while, the image suddenly goes black as he attempts to make his way through a crowd of people. In the background, the people here can be heard whispering and talking among-st one another. It can be heard moaning in agony for a few moments. This mutant looking humanoid appears to be disfigured and has been kept against its will. The footage cuts to black and people are left wondering what they have seen. Coast to Coast AM received an amazing phone call from an anonymous male claiming to work in Area 51.2/23/2022 During a 1997 radio show, the host Art Bell, received an amazing phone call from an anonymous male claiming to work for the government (in Area 51). This guy said (back in 1997) about the US government plans and the disasters that are coming in 2012. He also said that there are safe spots which the government knows of, but ain't telling to the people. But his most interesting claims were that the aliens are actually extra-dimensional beings and they are not what they claim to be. The extraterrestrials have infiltrated most of the Military. We don't find out which type of aliens he is referring to, but I think he is speaking of the reptilians. From my studies they are extra-dimensional, which means that they can access a dimension that we are not able to decode. It's a very simple thing for them to tune into a dimension that is out of our reach, therefore they can become invisible to us. Remember that an event is 'paranormal' only until we discover the science behind it. While the caller was sharing this information to the public, the radio station gets cut off for the first time since Art had been doing the show and they came back on air running on a backup system. Listen: Later Edited: If you havent heard this clip from the infamous radio show "Coast to Coast" you should do. Its one of those classic moments in the show which went down in its history, while Art Bell was hosting. Cloaked in mystery and intrigue, this clip still lives on, being discovered by new seekers in both the alternative and ufo community with relish. It is kind of scary, so maybe keep your teddybear close by. My specific query with regards to the clip is why on earth ( no pun intended) does Art Bell say "Discharged" before the radio cuts out? Is this man a paid actor, genuine, a manchurian candidate, an mkultra victim or what? .... you decide, if you dare... Shortly after this broadcast Art Bell began winding down his operations at Coast 2 Coast, and wikipedia reports of strange goings on following the broadcast.. enjoy UPDATE ( 21/10/07 ) *** I've just received this email from an avid listener of C2C at the time of the broadcast, on their request I will keep their identity anonymous *** "Greetings "Frog"! I want to take this opportunity to write and clarify some apparent confusions regarding that now "classic" 1997 broadcast and it's aftermath. I used to be a AVID listener(EVERY NIGHT) before I subscribed to "Streamlink",so was able to catch the initial broadcast AND ALL the subsequent follow-ups too. THIS is what REALLY happened: 1.The caller made that initial call(heard here)which was actually AUDIOTAPED and played SOME years later by Art on the air AT LEAST ONCE. It was only the BROADCAST that was mysteriously interrupted. Art spoke with the caller for MORE than is heard HERE, before he was alerted by the producer that the actual BROADCAST wasn't being received. The COMPLETE conversation I clearly remember listening to some time later. I will discuss THAT a bit later. It was during that initial conversation that Art says the word "discharged". Art was at that time STILL speaking to the caller and was questioning him ABOUT that discharge, evidently expressing DOUBT as to the veracity of the caller's claims and wanting to accentuate this to his LISTENERS, hence Art's PRONOUNCED accent on that particular word just before the broadcast cut off. 2. About a week later, the caller RETURNED, now claiming it was all a HOAX, at which point Art sounded quite RELIEVED. 3. About two years AFTER that initial call, the caller AGAIN returned, now claiming(in great detail)that he had been kidnapped, brainwashed and essentially been made to claim it was all a hoax,by secret agencies inside the govt. As you would imagine, this totally FREAKED Art(and most of the callers that night). 4.At some point afterward(memory fails me on exactly WHEN)someone CLAIMING to be that caller AGAIN came on the phone with Art, and began a hysterical rant. Art(and most of his listeners)recognised that this caller DIDN'T sound like the same person, and Art-after exchanging a few words with him-promptly HUNG UP. It was revealed in the audiotape of that complete first call that the responsibility of the "Aliens" entry into our world/dimension rested squarely within the US govt. itself. The caller claimed that secret factions within our military were conducting tests(based on work that had begun with German scientists during WWII)and it was during these "tests" that a portal was opened, allowing their entry. The caller insinuated that communications were made with the "Aliens" for some time PRIOR to their actual ENTRY into OUR dimension, at that PRIOR to their entry,the US govt. was led to believe that the They were NOT a possible threat to national security. Since these (rightly)classic shows, several factors have come to my attention to make ME believe the caller was GENUINE, not a sham. At least one qualified expert on voice-stress analysis did a reading on that initial call, and declared publicly that he found NOTHING that led him to believe that the caller was making up ANY part of it. Another factor was the caller's description of those "extra dimensions" in terms that neatly fall into place with what are now called "parallel universes" or the "String Theory", which of course at the time of that broadcast(1997)the general public knew almost NOTHING about. Still ANOTHER reason I believe it's NOT a hoax is the fact that Art Bell has publicly declared he DIDN'T play any part whatsover in it, other than what was heard on-air those nights over that two year period. Art certainly has his faults(I'm NO fan of his "child bride" marriage...especially SO SOON after Ramona's demise)but I sincerely believe in his PROFESSIONAL integrity, and I think most of his listening audience DO TOO! Warm regards, --------- PS In regard to later allegations that it was TOM GREEN who was the mystery caller, I would bet the farm that if he made ANY of the calls it was only the FOURTH:where Art and most callers DIDN'T BUY IT, and Art promptly HUNG UP on the guy!" Edward Snowden, reported on the facts known to it concerning UFOs. According to the documents, which Snowden copied to the CIA, the U.S. government has long known that UFOs exist and are managed species more advanced than humanity. These species are not alien, and our earth, only more advanced. They live here for billions of years, and far ahead of us in development. The CIA stores data tracking systems and deep-sea sonar, but they have the status of state secrets, and even the scientists do not have access to this data about these objects. This kind of intelligent Homo sapiens and lived in the Earth's mantle. This is the only place where conditions were more or less stable for billions of years. Extremophiles can live at different temperatures, they have been able to flourish and develop intelligence at an accelerated pace. Homo sapiens and they have evolved at the same rate, but their living conditions in the Earth's mantle defended their civilization from the many disasters that have occurred on the surface of the earth. . . The general consensus is that we're just ants from their point of view and there is a small chance that they will not continue to pay attention to us. But the military and are considering the possibility of aggression and the current plan of action in emergencies includes a plan - detonate a nuclear weapon in the deep caves to "seal" the enemy in the hope of destroying their communications that will prevent further attacks from the bowels of the earth. |
