1984 Cold War Incident: Soviet Laser Fired Upon Shuttle Challenger

1984 Cold War Incident: Soviet Laser Fired Upon Shuttle Challenger
Clark C McClelland, former ScO Space Shuttle Fleet, writes in a chapter from his book Stargate Chronicles: "Terra-3 Soviet Strategic Space Weapon Was Used to Attack U.S.A. Space Shuttle Challenger Spy Mission," about a volatile incident of Cold War era spying that almost ignited World War III! On Oct. 10 1984, Space Shuttle Challenger was engaged in a spy mission to take photos with a large format camera of the Sary Sagan anti-ballistic installation (pictured) near Lake Balkash in Kazakhstan. The Soviet Defense Minister concerned about American spying, ordered Terra-3 laser fired upon the Shuttle! The laser beam caused malfunctions on shuttle and sickened crew members, and resulted, in a formal diplomatic protest. McClelland summarzes Russian response, "the U.S.S.R. recognizing that the order given by their Defense Ministry under the watchful eye of the KGB had caused a very dangerous international incident and quickly responded to the angry United States protest by saying that the response taken by their government was only an action to annoy the crew of the space shuttle during their spy mission over sovereign Soviet territory. It was not meant to harm anyone on board the spacecraft. Of course it wasn’t, yeah, sure!" The former NASA employee also shares opinions on possible sabotage involved in NASA tragedies. You won't see sabotage in the mainstream press, so it's worth the read!

NASA's science missions bring the universe into sharper focus

Even as agency struggles with manned flight
from washington post: Life is tough these days at NASA, the space agency that can’t launch anyone into space. It wrestles with basic questions: Where to go? How to get there? When? And for what purpose? But even as NASA goes through this awkward transition in human space flight, the agency has one bright spot: science. NASA’s scientific missions — robotic probes, telescopes, satellites — are bringing Earth, the sun, the solar system and the universe into sharper focus.

space shuttle atlantis touches down, ending an era of adventure in space

nasa employees weep at kennedy space centre as half a century of american dominance in space comes to a close
from guardian: She roared into the heavens a fortnight ago atop a column of fire, enthralling a million spectators as she set off on her final voyage. But the space shuttle Atlantis slipped quietly back to port on Thursday at the end of her five-million-mile journey, gently lowering the curtain on three extraordinary decades of adventure in human space flight.

NASA's space shuttle era officially came to a close at 5.57am (10.57am BST) when the orbiter and its crew of four astronauts touched down at a remote runway in the northern reaches of Florida's Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, watched by a few hundred space agency workers and reporters who turned out before dawn to witness a moment of history.

Like a ship's bell ringing a vessel safely back home, two deafening sonic booms pierced the Florida sky to signal Atlantis's otherwise silent arrival, and the last few seconds of the 135th and final mission since the first launch of Columbia in April 1981.

It was day of celebration and raw emotion, with NASA employees openly weeping on the runway in front of the newly retired shuttle, and Chris Ferguson, the Atlantis commander, paying a moving tribute to it and the rest of the spacecraft fleet. "The space shuttle has changed the way we view the world and it's changed the way we view our universe," he said moments after landing.

international space station: 1998 to present

international space station: 1998 to present
Assembly of the International Space Station (ISS) ranks as an engineering feat from first launch in 1998 to first occupants in November, 2000 to tenth year of continued occupation and beyond. An excellent informative flash movie of the ISS taking shape over years and a Scientific American slideshow presentation, are must viewing! A You Tube video of International Space Station immerses viewer in virtual experience--great stuff!

NASA website summarizes effort to assemble space station: "As of the Nov. 2 [2010] anniversary date there have been 103 launches to the space station: 67 Russian vehicles, 34 space shuttles, one European and one Japanese vehicle. A total of 150 spacewalks have been conducted in support of space station assembly totaling more than 944 hours." You may wonder when the ISS will be visited next with the Shuttle's retirement? A flight schedule also on NASA website shows list of entirely Russian missions for next two years. The present writer expects a Space X Dragon module to pull up, at some point, before schedule's completion!

final shuttle launch of sts-135

final shuttle launch of sts-135

Who said people have lost interest in space? The final Shuttle mission STS-135 (promo poster pictured), with as many as a million spectators congregating along flight path from launch pad 39A, shows an intense interest to witness this historic event! The launch of Atlantis set for 11:26a ET Friday, is threatened by a rain delay. Bad weather hasn't dampened desire to travel to Cape Canaveral with a 50-mile traffic jam still expected on Friday, according to LA Times story. The final chapter in the Shuttle's 30 year mission has the atmosphere of a top sporting event. You may take in the blast off at SpaceVidcast.com Live!

endeavour launch, mission facts & illuminati numbers

endeavour launch, mission facts & illuminati numbersEndeavour, STS-134, launched on time from the Kennedy Space Center at 8:56 am, ET, today. Atlantis is scheduled for launch this summer in the final flight of the Space Shuttle program. You can download a STS-134 Mission Fact Sheet and, if you missed it, you can take in the mission launch here on YouTube. The live commentary is pointed with infobits for viewers. Shuttle rockets are burning 11,000 pounds of fuel per second and the entire package loses half its weight in the first two minutes! What kind of fuel bill is that? You can follow the mission in real-time here.

Conspiracy theorists on the web see a heavy Illuminati signature on the Endeavour mission. You can view one blogger's attempt to look at the numbers at AboveTopSecret.com. It only gets interesting when a comparison is made to the tragic Columbia mission. There are sixteen days separating Columbia's launch until its tragic breakup on February 1, 2003. Endeavour postponed for sixteen days and also scheduled to return on the first of the month, June 1st. The blogger sees inverted 911s throughout.


The present writer strongly suspects secret society ties to NASA and what appears to be twilight language in its naming conventions. A previous post reports what may be coded words or twilight communication. "The ENTERPRISE of the United States (COLUMBIA), shall be destroyed after completing its mission. CHALLENGERs shall be destroyed before completing their mission and replaced by our last British led ENDEAVOUR, for the DISCOVERY of ATLANTIS". Endeavour is named after the ship of British Explorer Captain James Cook and wonder where it will lead?

arizona shooting suspected to be staged psyop

arizona shooting suspected to be staged psyop The shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in a Tucson parking lot in January, has fallen under suspicion of two independent investigators, Ed Chiarini and Stephanie Sledge. A photoshopped mug shot of Jared Lee Loughner hints something is amiss? Is the photo a sinister psyop lending the alleged shooter an evil clown-like appearance, borrowed from Glenn Beck? Chiarini suspects a staged event, based on school shooting drill or Exercise Plan (ExPlan), a link is at Wellaware1.com. A drill resembling Tucson shooting, would be termed a Full Scale Event(FSE) in Chiarini's opinion. The investigation has led to Radian-Helix, a media company and its employees who resemble people at the scene. An early February interview of Chiarini is available here.

Sledge's website, The Government Rag, provides a wealth of videos, interviews and recent article, "Jared Lee Loughner Case begins to unfold in opposite direction". Power Hour's Joyce Riley follows the Sledge and Chiarini investigation closely with most recent interviews here and here.
These are brave souls to take on a politically volatile event. Chiarini hints at more conspiracy with reference to a full-size space shuttle model, also leaked report of problems with last mission. The last shuttle launch is scheduled for April 29th, whose commander is also Gifford's husband, Mark Kelly. It's a full plate and if Arizona shooting was staged, present writer hopes no one was killed as reported!

capt. kirk wakes up the discovery space shuttle crew

capt. kirk wakes up the discovery space shuttle crewfrom cnn: At the intersection of science-fiction and science-fact was William Shatner on Monday. As James T. Kirk, the fictional captain of the Starship Enterprise, Shatner voiced the opening credits of the original "Star Trek" TV series and several movies since 1966. The 79-year-old actor reprised his role to wake up the crew of the space shuttle Discovery at 3:23 a.m. ET Monday. "Space, the final frontier. These have been the voyages of the space shuttle Discovery. Her 30-year mission: To seek out new science. To build new outposts. To bring nations together on the final frontier. To boldly go, and do, what no spacecraft has done before," Shatner said over the "Theme from Star Trek." This is the spacecraft's final scheduled mission. It has made 39 flights and 13 journeys to the international space station. Discovery undocked from the space station for the final time at 8:37 a.m., according to NASA, in preparation for its flight home. Discovery is scheduled to land at Florida's Kennedy Space Center shortly before noon Wednesday - one day later than originally scheduled. The nearly three-decade shuttle program is scheduled to end later this year.

challenger: 'obviously, a major malfunction'

challenger: 'obviously, a major malfunction' In observance of the 25th anniversary of the Shuttle Challenger disaster, the words of NASA public relations officer Steve Nesbitt just over a minute after launch, seem etched on people's minds, "obviously, a major malfunction". CNN Live coverage from that fateful day January 28, 1986, can be viewed here. Richard C Cook, author of Challenger Revealed, recounts the O-Ring issue and Morton Thiokol's reservations in a, "Lew Rockwell article," which recaps the mainstream media message on the disaster. Cook issued a memo six months prior with his safety concerns, when contractors related to him shortly after his arrival at NASA, they held their breath with every launch because of deficiencies in the design of the O-Rings and especially at cold temperatures. There is another message implicit in the event, however.

It's the hidden meaning of the names of the space shuttles. "A Colombian Enterprise to Endeavor for the Discovery of Atlantis... and all Challengers shall be destroyed," taken from the late William Cooper's writings, which can be read here. Cooper believed it's the symbolic language of the Illuminati.

The late David J Meyer, a minister who warned about dangers of the occult and secret societies, is prescient in this January 1995 Last Trumpet Newsletter:
"I would like to mention that the program of the Illuminati is revealed in the names of the space shuttles. The United States used to have six but now has five space shuttles. The names of these are: 1. Columbia, 2. Enterprise, 3. Endeavor, 4. Discovery, 5. Atlantis. If we take that exact order, we will find that a message is formed.

We know that the name Columbia is taken from the Washington D.C. or District of Columbia, where the Illuminati is actively utilizing the the United States Government for its own purposes. Enterprise is the name given to the plan to bring forth the new world government. Endeavor is the labor required by the Illuminists to bring forth the New World Order. Discovery is the discovery of the New Empire that is to be brought forth from the ashes of the old. Atlantis is the name given to the New Empire. The legend of the lost continent of Atlantis reveals that it was a Socialist Superstate that controlled ancient Europe. It is the Illuminists who are trying to bring forth a New Atlantis, which is to rise again.

If we take these names of the space shuttles in order, we come up with an interesting sentence as follows: Columbia in a great Enterprise will Endeavor to Discover Atlantis. It is interesting that the shuttle named "Challenger" was destroyed! The conspirators love to speak and communicate in secret or cryptic language, but God reveals all of their secrets.
"
Are the shuttle's names used in 'twilite' (or twilight) language to influence us? In the video, "Unholy Alliance," a strong case builds on the interpretation provided by Cooper and Meyer. "The ENTERPRISE of the United States (COLUMBIA), shall be destroyed after completing its mission. CHALLENGERs shall be destroyed before completing their mission and replaced by our last British led ENDEAVOUR, for the DISCOVERY of ATLANTIS." It certainly seems possible, "..apparent meaning of a word or phrase that changes once one learns its meaning,” the definition provided in the video of twilite language is at work. Are we on the last leg of a course directly to a a socialist superstate--a new Atlantis?
