  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 […]

Both now irrevocably linked by modern Science to that immortal “shining, resonant object of continuing mystery and wonder … and Hidden History” — Earth’s Moon. The modern mythology of “Artemis and the Moon” officially picks up tomorrow morning — with NASA’s first attempted launch of the “Artemis-I […]

How the Webb Space Telescope Will PROVE the Reality of Extraterrestrial Life My guest tonight, Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe, over the years has been an honored visitor to “The Other Side of Midnight” several times; in these past shows, we’ve discussed many fascinating things … ranging from his scientific proof, decades ago, that interstellar space is TEEMING with the ‘organic, complex building blocks of life’; to his professional and personal relationships with highly-controversial “Steady State” cosmologist, Sir Fred Hoyle; to his longtime friendship with my old, dear friend … Sir Arthur C. Clarke. Tonight promises to bring all these past “wide-ranging conversations” to a dramatic point: Writes Chandra, in a paradigm-breaking, pre-publication, scientific “Webb paper” he’s currently co-authoring: “New developments in astronomy, biology and space science appear to favour […]

Finally … through “the Martian Doorway” I started out professionally as a “squeaky clean” mainstream science kinda guy — New England major city Science Curator; Science Advisor to Walter Cronkite at CBS News; and somehow one day– A small (very small …) participant in the actual Apollo Program to the Moon itself; I was asked to write the Grumman Aerospace Corporation’s “Moon Section” of its official Project Apollo press book — scientifically describing what was waiting for our astronauts … when they reached the Moon). Eventually, I become what most scientists interested in space at that time wanted to become — a full-fledged “NASA Consultant” to the Space Agency itself. So– […]

The Congressional UFO Hearings… The Nimitz Sightings– Decoded The current “UFO Era” officially began in December, 2017 — with the New York Times front page story on “repeated, baffling encounters of the USS NImitz carrier battle group with some kind of ‘unidentified aerial phenomena’ off California, in 2004”; the first Congressional UFO hearing on the matter took place “just” five years later — just a few days ago, now — as a direct result. It’s been more than 50 years … someone’s (finally?) scared. The forum for this historic hearing was the “Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence and Counterproliferation Sub-Committee, of the full ‘House Select Committee on Intelligence.’” This was a reasonable (and bipartsian!) political decision, based on the Navy observations of “extraordinarily advanced aerial vehicles, performing ‘impossible’ aerial maneuvers […]
