Guest Page Fast links to Items: Richard – Andrew Fast links to Bios: Ron – Ruggero – Andrew – Kynthea – Keith – Robert Support The Other Side of Midnight! “Unknown ship, sir, hanging half-a-mile off the port bow!” The Continuing Saga of the DART Asteroid Impact Mission …. As the title of tonight’s show strongly “suggests”: NASA did NOT just “hit an asteroid” two weeks ago — with its DART (Double Asteoid Redirection Test) Mission. They hit a genuine Ancient Solar System Spaceship! And– We can PROVE it. The immense number of questions this human-initiated “Startling Cosmic Event” clearly opens up, will definitely fill our three hours tonight … and many more …. Did the “rank and file” at NASA — all those “bubbling, cheering, congratulatory NASA scientists,” appearing at all those official NASA press conferences, post-impact … REALIZE what they have done?!: DESTROYED an ancient “solar system time-capsule,” […]

DART and Artemis … Two NASA Missions That Will Save the World While catastrophic disasters continued to loom across the Earth this week — the devastating effects of Hurricane Ian on millions of US citizens; the bizarre sabotage of TWO Russian natural gas pipelines, preventing millions of shivering Europeans this coming Winter from receiving vital Russian energy supplies; and … Vladimir Putin’s own, increasingly shrill “nuclear threats” … over Ukraine. Millions of miles out in space … an extraordinarily POSITIVE development happened! NASA, in a dramatic “double asteroid re-direction test” (DART), shot a high-tech “bullet” over 7 million miles across the inner solar system, and– Directly clobbered a small celestial […]
Happy Birthday, Keith Morgan! The Show couldn’t go on without you!!! Guest Page Fast links to Items: Richard – Andrew – Robert – Ruggero – Ron Fast links to Bios: Ron – Ruggero – Andrew – Kynthea – Keith – Robert Support The Other Side of Midnight! Make No Wine Before Its Time…. “The CAPSTONE team continues work on recovery efforts [of its unmanned spacecraft currently heading to the Moon, arriving November 13] ….” “South Korea’s first robotic lunar orbiter, named ‘Danuri,’ is looping back to the Moon … after successfully conducting a critical trajectory correction maneuver Sept. 2 ….” CAPSTONE (“Cislunar Autonomous Positioning System Technology Operations and Navigation Experiment”) is in trouble: at the end of its third pre-planned mid-course correction burn last week (Sept 8), “something” went radically wrong– And the microwave-sized spacecraft began tumbling wildly enroute to lunar orbit. The third unmanned lunar launch attempt — the 5-year […]
Guest Page Fast links to Items: Richard Fast links to Bios: Richard Support The Other Side of Midnight! They’re going for a SECOND launch attempt for Artemis-I THIS coming Saturday afternoon — September 3. “T-30 minutes … and counting ….” This afternoon (as this is being written …), at 2:17 PM Eastern Daylight Time, NASA is going to try again — for the second time this week — to launch the first unmanned mission of the official successor to the fabled half-century-old Apollo Lunar Landing Program: Artemis-I. The new Program’s “Space Launch System” carrier rocket, and its soon-to-be crewed state-of-the-art interplanetary human spacecraft — named fittingly “Orion” — is planned to fly a rigorous, six-week “wring out all the systems” orbital mission to and from the Moon …. The successful launch of Artemis-I — named deliberately in honor of the ancient Greek “goddess of the Moon,” twin sister of Apollo […]
