I wanted to bring to the attention of the forum the Horizon documents:
HORIZON was a 1959 US Army study to establish a military lunar outpost. According to the project plan, by the end of 1964, a total of 40 SATURN vehicles would have been launched to assemble the necessary spacecraft and infrastructure in low earth orbit. Cargo delivery to the moon would begin in January 1965 with the first manned landing by two men in April 1965. The build-up and construction phase continued until the outpost would be manned by a task force of 12 men in November 1966.
After a discussion here about the alleged Apollo 20 footage of a city and ship on the moon said to be 1.5 billion years old, I thought it prudent to share this web site:
http://www.friends-partners.org/partners/mwade/project/horizon.htm
It's a very interesting collection of documents and illustrations that supposedly show the pre-Apollo secret space program designed to put a working lunar colony into production. It includes spacecraft and spacesuit designs, space stations, completion reports and more.
I'd be interested to get the opinions of the rest of you here in the forum on these documents.
The Horizon Program is pointed to by proponents of the idea that we did indeed implement a space program before NASA and that we landed on the moon long before Apollo 11. Many of these proponents also point to the Horizon Program as evidence that we continue to enjoy lunar colonies--perhaps on the back side of the moon, perhaps not--to this day. People are still claiming to see activity on the moon's surface.
Understand I'm not making any claims one way or the other--I simply found the web site interesting and thought you all might, too.
