Why NASA Should Never Be Trusted

NASA should never be trusted because that agency has repeatedly lied to us. Once someone is caught in a lie, that person or group should not be trusted in the future, unless there is repentance and transformation. NASA is unrepentant.

I consider that this article is a necessary part of my biblical cosmology series because the alledged evidence supplied by NASA in the form of photographs, video, and claims to have visited the moon, Mars, and the outer reaches of our “solar system” is what keeps the heliocentric-Big Bang house of cards from collapsing.

If it can be demonstrated that NASA’s supposed “proofs” that we live on a rotating globe that is hurtling around the sun are fake, NASAperhaps it will help to open people’s eyes to the reality of biblical cosmology. This topic is so immense that it is impossible to adequately cover it in one article. Therefore, I have embedded numerous videos for you to view when you have the time, if you are so inclined. I will do my best to summarize some of the main arguments. Let’s get started.

This article will introduce vasts amounts of disputed scientific evidence, something I have avoided to a great extent in previous articles in this series, in an effort to stay focused on the scriptural basis for adhering to an enclosed cosmology. However, anyone who investigates the claims of biblical cosmology will be confronted with numerous questions regarding how such an explanation of the heavens and earth can account for various phenomena and claims, such as eclipses and satellites orbiting the spherical earth, for example. In this article, I will address some of these questions, and perhaps offer some satisfactory answers,but biblical cosmology does not have an answer for everything, but, neither does modern astrophysics.

Just because we cannot answer every question does not mean that the Bible account is false. It simply means that we do not know everything.

Our educational system has programmed our thinking since childhood so deeply and completely that alternate explanations for the cosmos may seem ridiculous at first. However, once we get past such blockages, biblical cosmology can appear quite logical and compelling. I ask you to try to keep an open mind and ask God for wisdom, discernment, and understanding.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, we ask you to guide us into all truth regarding your creation of the heavens and the earth upon which we live. Amen.

In the 1960’s, we were told that a “space race” had begun between the US and Russia. We were told that our Cold War opponent had a tremendous advantage over us, having already successfully put a “satellite” called Sputnik in “orbit.” Our very existence as a nation was said to be threatened, requiring us to enter and win this “race” at the cost of billions of dollars. I remember President Kennedy announcing we would go to the moon by the end of the decade. I personally witnessed, via TV, the first men our country allegedly  launched into space. I later watched as we supposedly carried out six manned missions to the moon, all without a hitch, except for Apollo 13, about which a movie has been made. All of this supposedly was done with computers with only a fraction of the power of our present day cell phones and with 1960’s and 70’s technology. President Nixon even was able to talk to our men on the moon using a landline without any delay at all, or did he simply call the Johnson Space Center in Houston? It’s too bad that we destroyed all of that amazing technology.

Quite unbelievably, literally, NASA says that it lost or destroyed all the original video, audio, telemetry data, and the designs of the lunar lander, rover, and rocket engines connected to the Apollo missions. 

How could they lose the information connected to the greatest achievement of mankind? Nothing to see here. Could it be that, if that information were available, it would easy to prove that the Apollo program was a complete hoax? 

nasaBut let’s go back in time a bit. Admiral Richard E. Byrd made several expeditions to Antarctica before and after WWII (1928-30, 1933-34, 1939-40, 1946-47, and 1955-56). During and after Byrd completed his assignments there, several very interesting events took place.

  1. The United Nations was created in 1945. It’s flag contains an image of the azimuthal map of the earth, which shows the north pole in the center and the ice ring around the circumference, the same one many flat earth proponents use and which was commonly used before NASA’s creation and “space flight” began.
  2. Walt Disney, who majored in fantasy, and Werner Von Braun, of later NASA fame, partnered to produce a documentary on”nasaspace travel” in 1955. The continual barrage of cartoons, documentaries, and movies about space travel has created a love for and fascination with going beyond the limitations of earth.
  3. NASA was formed in 1958. Werner Von Braun, a former Nazi who helped develop Germany’s V2 rocket, was brought to the US following WWII under the auspices of Operation Paperclip and became a main spokesman for our space program.
  4. The Antarctic Treaty was signed on December 1, 1959, which cordoned off the area beyond the South 60th parallel, making it closed to private exploration. It was agreed that this area of the world would not be owned by any nation. The signing nations were each assigned a segment to guard and protect against trespassers. Interestingly, despite all our international conflicts since then, no one has violated this treaty. Why has it been so honored? Various nations guard a section that reported corresponds to its proximity to the ice wall on the flat earth azimuthal map. I have not been able to personally verify this, but if the earth is an enclosed plane, it would make perfect sense.
  5. Operation Dominic and Fishbowl were a series of high altitude nuclear explosions conducted by the US and Russia. Operation Starfish supposedly exploded a 1.4 megaton bomb in 1962 at a reported altitude of 400 kilometers or 240 miles. One has to ask why? Was it because Admiral Byrd discovered that indeed we are enclosed in a solid firmament, just as the Bible says? Were we trying to test its strength and limits? Was is simply a military test of how nuclear fallout spreads? Perhaps we will never know for sure.

If a solid firmament exists, as the Bible says, outer space is a man-made illusion. Biblical cosmologists believe that the firmament is an impenetrable barrier that acts as heaven’s boundary. If that is true, a large portion of what NASA produces is designed to deceive, which is what the word “nasa” in Hebrew means. Whatever may be the truth, mankind’s love affair with the idea of space travel demonstrates that we are sinfully dissatisfied with the habitation God provided for us and wish to live elsewhere. The grass is always greener on the other side of the firmament. NASA’s $70 million dollars per day provides them with all they funds they need to produce all sorts of science fiction.

The ISS is submerged in what is the world’s largest swimming pool in Houston. NASA also has a huge movie studio.

Assuming that the Bible is true, we assume that God foresaw the advent of rockets and designed the firmament withstand our attempts to break through it.

1 Why were the nations unruly, and the people meditated on vain things? 2 The kings of the earth are present, and the rulers are gathered together against the Lord and against his anointed one. 3 They say, “Let us break their bonds,” and “Let us throw their yoke off us.” 4 The one dwelling in the heavens will laugh at them, and the Lord will mock them. 5 At that time he will speak against them in his wrath, and in his anger he will bring trouble to them. Psalm 2:1–5 (LES2) 

If the firmament exists, NASA knows it. The Russians certainly have known about for a very long time. Declassified documents from Russia reference some of the experiments they did to assess properties of this biblical structure.

To avoid hitting the firmament, while maintaining the illusion of firing rockets into outer space, NASA insists that rockets must travel in an arc, essentially going sideways, to achieve escape velocity from earth’s supposed gravity. Since the earth is an enclosed plane, the arcs of these rockets proceeds downward, not around the globe. Many think they are heading toward a sea burial in the Bermuda Triangle, an area declared off-limits shortly after NASA began its launches. 

There have been some rocket launches that do not take the curved arc. There is video footage of these rockets encountering something like water when they reach a certain altitude.

(Start at 5:45 to 6:43)

The supposed moon landing conducted during the Apollo missions could not possibly have taken place. We did not have the technology to do it, even if outer space were real.

Bill Kaysing was an employee of Rocketdyne and served as a sort of information clearing house for the Apollo missions as they were gearing up. He observed that nothing was going according to schedule, but the mission was still on “go,” as if everything was fine.

Gus Grissom, one of the astronauts slated to go on the first Apollo mission, publicly and without authorization announced that the program was a “lemon.” attaching a lemon to a piece of equipment in front of visiting reporters. He asked how we could possibly go to the moon when we could not communicate between buildings? He came under criticism and warned his wife that he feared the CIA would take him out. That is exactly what happened. Subsequently, CIA operatives were working on the space capsule in which they were going to do an oxygen test with the astronaut team inside. During the test, the oxygen-filled capsule was incinerated. The hatch door had been re-hinged to swing inside. The controls had been rewired so that they sparked when switched on during the time while the oxygen reached 100%, effectively converting the capsule into an oxygen bomb. The entire crew was burned up. Operatives entered his home and took all his papers before his wife even knew he died. That is what happens to people who “squeal.” If you want to know why subsequent astronauts, excluding Buzz Aldrin, never exposed the hoax, look no further.

Somewhere along the line, when it became apparent, (Maybe it was from the beginning.), that the mission would never happen, the decision was made to fake it. That is why everything kept moving forward despite obvious problems. We have second-hand testimony of what took place in the following video, which recounts two death-bed confessions that expose the filming of the first Apollo mission at Cannon Air Force base.

Bart Sibrel began investigating the moon landings. His friend, the above-mentioned Bill Kaysing, who eventually wrote, We Never Went to the Moon, suggested Bart make a documentary. After receiving numerous batches of videos from NASA to help him with the research, he discovered one marked “not for public distribution.” He thinks a whistle blower sent it. It shows the astronauts in a capsule somewhere above the earth in the process of creating a false globe earth image by manipulating what could be seen of the flat earth out of their capsule window. This convinced Sibrel that the missions were faked. His adventures afterward when he tried to get the video into the hands of CNN make it worth purchasing and reading his book, Moon Man. He produced the following video entitled, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon. The first video below is a shorter version containing only the critical section of the film.

Even though, to my knowledge, he never arrived at “flat earth,” he exposed the hypocrisy of NASA. Since then, many good documentaries exposing the impossibility of that mission have been produced. Below are some of my favorites.

  1. The moon is a luminary rather than a solid spherical planetoid. It is located in the firmament. We cannot land on it.
  2. The vacuum of space does not exist. Even if it did, space travel could not take place because there is no atmosphere against which rocket engines could thrust. Now, however, NASA claims the earth’s atmosphere reaches to the moon. Convenient.
  3. The “Van Allen Belts,” which are probably another name for the firmament barrier, would be impossible to safely traverse without lead shielding 2-4 feet thick. The astronauts capsule was quite thin and their suits 2 inches thick. The firmament, of course, is an impenetrable barrier.
  4. The supposed temperatures on the moon range from -270 degrees to +243 degrees Fahrenheit. The spacesuits could not possibly provide adequate protection. In addition, they could not have been properly pressurized because there are visible folds in their suits. Also, the footprints on the moon do not match the soles of the spacesuit that was supposedly worn.
  5. Buzz Aldrin was photographed supposedly minutes apart wearing different boots and gloves. (In addition, as pointed out on Wagging the Moon Doggie, there were so many photos taken, they would have been snapped at an incredible rate of more one in under a minute, despite the fact that much time was spent traveling and doing other things. In addition, the cameras were not “smart” and had to be manually adjusted for every shot, which would have been impossible for the astronauts to do, since they were wearing thick gloves and helmet visors. Nevertheless, the photos were perfectly framed and metered.
  6. Shadows going in 2 or 3 directions, sometimes at 90 degree angles, show that studio lighting was used.
  7. What was said to be the sun, under scrutiny, was shown to be a studio light. There are other reflections and flares that originate from studio lighting.
  8. There is a defined separation between the foreground and backdrop, revealing that the mission was filmed on earth in a studio. Some sets were used multiple times, allegedly at different locations.
  9. Computer enhancements were made to photos.
  10. The supposed images of earth from the moon were clearly photo-shopped.
  11. A rock on the lunar surface has the letter C engraved on it. The ground next to it has the same letter C. This is done on studio sets to indicate prop positions.
  12. Light can sometimes be seen glinting off wires supporting astronauts on alleged moon walks.
  13. Flags on the moon can be see flapping in the wind.
  14. Moon walk and dune buggy footage was reduced to half speed to make it look otherworldly. Sometimes there are no tire prints where the lunar rover supposedly drove. 
  15. No stars are visible from the moon. Astronauts give conflicting testimony, some saying there were no stars, but others saying they shone brilliantly.
  16. The lunar lander is a joke constructed of what looks like construction paper. aluminum foil, tape, and curtain rods. Supposedly the skin was only as thick as three sheets of aluminum foil, but it was supposed to be strong enough to hold air pressure against the vacuum of space and protect against micro-meteorites, accidents, etc. Even with its thin walls, the lunar lander was supposedly air conditioned to withstand the extreme temperatures of the moon.
  17. Photos of the area beneath the lander show that no dust was disturbed during the landing. There is no evidence that the engine ever was used – no scorch marks, no crater, no dust, disturbance of any kind.
  18. President Nixon allegedly made a phone call from the oval office to the moon that had no delay. Even if that technology had existed, there would have been a significant delay.
  19. The moon rocks were fake. The one given to the museum in Amsterdam turned out to be petrified wood.
  20. The original video, audio, telemetry data, and plans for the rover, lander, and engines were lost / destroyed.

The demeanors of the crew in their first post-Apollo mission interview makes no sense, unless the men, who were so enthusiastic prior to “launch,” by that point realized that their job had been not to go to the moon, but to lie about going to the moon. 

Bart Sibrel wrote that he had a private off-the-record conversations with Neil, who told him he would make it right before he died. He never did. And it is not as if NASA and other so-called astronauts have never told us that we have not been to the moon or outer space, for that matter. Buzz Aldrin said on TV more than once that we never went to the moon. Below, the entire video is interesting, but of special import are two segments: 18:00-18:24 and 25:20-26:24.

More recently, modern astronauts have admitted on camera that we have never been beyond lower earth orbit. 

This, of course, raises the issue of orbits around a spherical earth, which is another topic altogether, regarding which I will not cover in this series. There is a “flat earth” answer, however, in case you are wondering. A Russian and a Polish astronaut have publicly admitted we have not been to “space.”

Many people at this point might bring up satellites and the International Space Station. The video below covers the satellite topic in depth, if you are interested.

Supposed photos from “outer space” of the earth never show any satellites, even though supposedly there are thousands. Most communication over the earth is done by undersea cables. Regarding the ISS, it is noteworthy that it was never constructed while on earth to make sure everything worked, and there is no video evidence of its construction in orbit. However, a full scale “replica” is submerged in a giant swimming pool at the NASA headquarters in Houston. Perhaps that is why videos of astronauts doing “space walks” frequently have bubbles and reflections off the visors of astronauts sometimes show scuba divers. 

NASA claims that the ISS can be seen against the moon. A law of optics is that the size of objects decreases in direct proportion to the distance. The ISS is proportional to a commercial jet passenger plane. The observable size of the ISS at 250 miles against the face of the moon is approximately the same size as a commercial jet at about five mile altitude. Someone is lying. 

One engineer pointed out that the valves, etc. on the ISS should have failed repeatedly, but there has never been any real problems and no fatalities. What about micrometeorites? Our favorite modern astronaut, Don Pettit, revealed that he did not even have proper training to handle emergencies. (Start at 5:24. End at 7:10.)

The supposed photographs that NASA offers as proof that the earth is a spinning globe suspended in outer space are either CGI or photo-shopped. This has been proved over and over. If NASA had real photographs, why would they use fakes?

(Begin the above video at 14:24. End at 37:36.)

There are numerous rather hilarious glitches in NASA’s supposed live streaming from outer space. 

I expected the recent Artemis moon mission to use a far more advanced version of AI and CGI deception, but surprisingly, they were not at all convincing. All sorts of obvious evidence of falsification were present. One of my favorites is the excuse that was made for not taking photos of the back side of the moon: it was the astronauts’ sleep cycle. Several videos have been produced to illustrate this fakery. Below are two.

Below is a humorous video exposing the Blue Origin fakery when Katy Perry supposedly went to space.

Based on the obvious fakery and lying that has taken place and is still ongoing, I see no reason whatsoever to trust NASA or any other space agency. My sad conclusion is that many Christians more highly esteem the word of proven liars like NASA over God’s Word in the Bible and prefer Satan’s cosmology to God’s. I pray this will soon end. What we can do to help end the church’s affair with heliocentrism will be the subject of the final part of this series which is entitled The Counter Revolution.
