There is speculation on the Internet as to whether the moon rotates at all, some feeling it does, others convinced that it does not, whichever is the case, the result is that we never see one side of the moon, the dark side. Karl Wolfe, states that while he was in the Air Force he was shown photos of the moon taken by the Lunar Orbiter, before the Apollo landing, which clearly displayed artificial structures. Mr. Wolfe had a top-secret clearance and worked with tactical air command at Langley AFB in Virginia. He claims that in the photos he saw towers, spherical buildings, large things that were similar to radar dishes and some structures that were half a mile in size.

According to only one document I could find, it was reported in March of 1996 that NASA scientists and engineers participating in the Moon and Mars exploration met in front of the Washington National Press Club to discuss their findings. Although they spoke cautiously, they announced that man-made structures and objects were discovered on the Moon. The article goes on to say that there is evidence of lost cities on the Moon. An unnamed mission control specialist is quoted as saying, “Our guys observed ruins of the Lunar cities, transparent pyramids, domes, and God knows what else, which are currently hidden deep inside the NASA safes, and felt like Robinson Crusoe when he suddenly came across prints of bare feet on the sand of the desert island.” (link)

According to un-confirmed reports, a ham radio operator picked up transmissions of the Apollo 11 landing and claims he heard these statements, “These "Babies" are huge, Sir! Enormous! OH MY GOD! You wouldn't believe it! I'm telling you there are other spacecraft out there, Lined up on the far side of the crater edge! They're on the Moon watching us!” And an unnamed professor claims he had a discussion about the Apollo 11 landing with Neil Armstrong, who said, “It was incredible, of course we had always known there was a possibility, the fact is, we were warned off! (by the Aliens). There was never any question then of a space station or a moon city.”

I’ve often wondered why we quit going to the Moon and why having a free floating space station was better, more economical or more stable than one on the moon. Perhaps we quit going because we were trespassing on someone else’s property. All I know is, it would be cool if the Moon Men of my childhood imaginings were real, but if they are, I’d watch out for the big one, he’s really mean.
