In late 1997, I invited Richard C. Hoagland to present his research to the residents of the state of Utah. On May 16th, 1998, Mr. Hoagland delivered a 5 hour lecture at the Fine Arts Auditorium on the campus at the University of Utah and his presentation was only a few weeks after the Mars Global Surveyor took new pictures of the Cydonia region of Mars since the 1976 Viking missions.

“There are great ideas undiscovered, breakthroughs available for those who can remove one of truth’s protective layers. There are places to go beyond belief.”—Neil Armstrong
“…it is better to be smart than to be stupid…” — Carl Sagan
To recapitulate, thus far, we have discussed an image taken during the Apollo 12 mission which was published in Carl Sagan’s Cosmos, the significance of which was discovered and revealed in 1995. We have presented details from the image itself, and its companion frames, that indicates the presence of an enormous, crystalline, pre-historically engineered dome (one of many distributed over the lunar surface). We have discussed the mysterious lack of post-Apollo space goals not having been met. We have discussed the late 1950’s speculations that the moons of Mars might be artificial and that this was the primary impetus behind the Brookings report proffering the subject of artifacts on other worlds. We briefly discussed the implications of the Brookings recommendations, including the suggestion that further research was conducted to study the effects on humanity of the verified discovery Continue reading Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan Part 8: “Who Speaks for Earth”?→
“…it seems possible that the Earth has been visited by various Galactic civilizations many times…It is not out of the question that artifacts of these visits still exist…or even that some kind of base is maintained within the solar system to provide continuity for successive expeditions…forthcoming high-resolution photographic reconnaissance of the moon from space vehicles—particularly, of the back side,—might bear these possibilities in mind…”1)See chapter 33 of the 1966 book, Intelligent Life in the Universe .—Carl Sagan writing 36 months before the above picture was taken. [emphasis mine.]
“Please be informed, there is a Santa Claus…”—Words of Jim Lovell, crew member of Apollo 8, the first humans in recorded history to see Earthrise from the lunar limb after passing from the “back side” of the moon.2)For Jim Lovell’s explanation of this quotation, see here.

As explained in our previous installments of this series, Dr. Sagan predicted the discovery of potential extra-terrestrial lunar artifacts. Given his having published an amazing picture of a potential “glass” dome in Cosmos, and also given the interesting suggestive way he mentions the enigmatic features of Mars years after his statements in the book Intelligent Life in the Universe, we now realize that Richard Hoagland was probably incorrect when he said Continue reading Tricks of Light and Shadow; The Secrets of Carl Sagan Part 5: An “Extraordinary Claim” or “…there is a Santa Claus…”→
