Tycho, Copernicus, and Aristarchus craters on the moon, may have
been created by explosions
that took place above the planet’s surface. The “rays” from these
craters are sometimes hundreds of
miles long, and some rays cover other craters. These bright rayed
craters are still giving off large
amounts of radiation. NASA scientists used optical infrared
equipment to scan the moon’s surface
during an eclipse, and found that these craters gave off more heat
than the surrounding areas.
Even
stranger, analysis of Apollo rock samples indicated high concentrations of
certain
radioactive isotopes of the elements, uranium and thorium. Such
isotopes could have been the by-
products of nuclear exchange. The Apollo missions also found
pounds of glass-like substances all over
the moon’s surface. Orange glass brought back by Apollo 17 from
Shorty crater was examined by
William C. Phinney, head of the preliminary examination team at
NASA’s Manned Spacecraft Center in
Houston. Phinney was extremely upset by this glass. As he stated,
“the orange glass is not related to
the surrounding material.” (Science News, Jan. 24, 1973). Oddly,
such glass can be found at nuclear
test sites. Astronomers have known for years that the fault lines
around the lunar craters closely
resemble the fault lines radiating from nuclear explosion craters
at Yucca Flats.
It would appear that if the moon was once inhabited, then the
people living there did an
incredible job of landscaping the moon’s surface. European
astronomers have known for many years
that large areas of the moon were divided into a massive grid
system, similar to the grid system found
on maps. Faults, rilles, ridges, and crater chains were laid out
in parallel lines intersecting each other at
right angles. Europeans,
led by Fielder, Darney, and Von Bulow published detailed maps of this
system. Are these the
remains of ancient roads and canals?
Photographic evidence provided by U.S. and Soviet space probes,
disclose that the surfaces of
Mercury, Venus, and Mars appear to have suffered the same
catastrophic fate as that of the moon.
Physicists estimate that the energy required to blast out craters
as large as 800 miles in diameter could
be billions of times more powerful than the largest H-bomb.

Most of these planets, the exception
being Mercury, were vastly different bodies in the recent
geological past. Some unknown agency
apparently altered these worlds leaving them dead and inhospitable
to life. There is evidence to support
that most of these grievously scarred worlds once possessed
atmospheres, as well as surface waters or
seas.
234
Due to its close proximity to the sun, Mercury
probably never possessed water, or evolved an
atmosphere. And, if it did
in the beginning, it would have vaporized early into its preliminary evolution.
Nevertheless, the tiny
face of Mercury is severely pock-marked by craters.
In
the sixties, scientists discovered that the average surface temperature of
Venus was so hot that
the moment you stepped out of the protection of your spacecraft,
you would be instantaneously cooked
and vaporized. It would be as though you were standing in a
micro-wave oven. Both American and
Soviet probes disclose that the planet’s hell-like conditions are
caused by a thick shroud of carbon dioxide clouds containing sulfuric acid with
traces of water vapor. It is as if something completely
annihilated the protective
ozone layer of the planet, creating a frightening greenhouse effect that
trapped heat from the sun.
This caused surface water to boil, then leak off into space, barbecuing
everything on its surface.
Because Venus is so close to the sun, its heat would only serve to accelerate
this destructive process.
Venus Once Had Water
The
thick atmospheric mantle of Venus traps the heat of the sun on the face of the
scorching
planet, denying it the
opportunity to escape back into space. This creates a condition that causes the
surface temperature of Venus to continue to rise. Therefore, any abundant
waters, such as oceans or
rivers, existing on Venus may once have harbored water in its
remote past. Unmanned probes reveal
topographical features suggesting dried out beds of oceans and shallow
seas. What some believe are the
remnants of fried river beds remain etched into its blistering
countenance. And, traces of water vapor
are yet found in its lethal atmosphere of carbon dioxide and
sulfuric acid. The Pioneer Venus 1 and 2
Probes, reveal that the planet may have once been covered by water
which was on the average, thirty
feet in depth.
235
This
raises the somewhat obvious question of was Venus always the uninhabitable
inferno it now
is? Was it ever capable of supporting life in its remote past? If
Venus was once an entirely different
type of planet, then what caused the drastic change in its surface
conditions? It has occurred to some
that massive nuclear bombardment may have ignited the radioactive
elements in the planet. And, that
the demolition of Venus may be only part of similar cataclysmic
destruction throughout the solar
system. There is ancient textural evidence that there was once a
frightening solar system war fought
among various factions of the Elohim, or Nibirians, as shall soon
be apparent.
Mars Once Had Water
And
what of Mars? It stands in frozen contrast to the oven-like temperatures
existing on Venus,
yet it shares in some of the same patterns of destruction. Little
remains of the Martian atmosphere now
consisting of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, argon, and traces of water
vapor. Most of the surface water of
Mars has disappeared.
236
Again the question arises as
to what is responsible for its now desert-like
condition? Planet Mars has
fascinated mankind down through history. Ancient man watched for its
appearance, and considered
it at times an ill omen. Percival Lowell, a nineteenth century astronomer,
was made famous by his
intensive study and steadfast conviction that the red planet actually contained
man-made canals. He also
believed that intelligent “Martians” were inhabiting the dying world.
Lowell, a man far ahead of his time in vision and perception,
became the laughing stock of the
scientific community. Despite criticism, he wrote several books
having wide appeal with the general
population, though they were scorned by the contemporary
scientific world. In 1894 he completed the
now famous Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff Arizona. In 1905 he
predicted the discovery of the planet
Pluto. Ironically, at his death, he was buried at a place called
“Mars Hill.”
237
Mars was Once Inhabited
We
now believe that Mr. Lowell was indeed correct in his remarkable hypothesis
that Mars
was/is an inhabited world with the recent discovery of
extraterrestrial ruins on Mars. In fact, a giant
mile-long human-like
Visage has been found in Cydonia, named by researchers the “Face on Mars.”
Pyramids, scattered ruins,
and other anomalies have also been discovered on Mars. Some have
attributed these monuments
to the Elohim of the Bible.
238
Although
early probes seemed to confirm that Mars was a geologically lifeless planet,
this notion
was quickly cast aside when the Mariner 9 probe of the early
seventies successfully photographed nearly
the entire surface of the red planet. Much to the surprise of the
scientists who studied the findings of the
Mariner 9, volcanoes, canyons, and dried up river-beds abound
there. And it is now believed that water
played an active part in the evolution of Mars. There is clear
photographic evidence of deep winding
channels that may have once been fast flowing streams. If there
was once water in substantial amounts,
then there could also be life.
Photographic
evidence taken by the Viking l and 2 probes supports this theory of water on
the
surface of the Mars in the
past. Chryse Planit is indicates flooding by large quantities of water, while
Vallis Mariner is once
released running water that carved large channels into the rocky terrain of
Mars.
There is also evidence of weathered rocks, subsequently eroded by
the presence of water in the planet’s
past. It is now believed by scientists, that Mars once had water
several meters deep over the entire
planet.
Mars was Once Earth-Like
Apparently
surface water still exists on Mars. Viking 2 discovered an area where frost was
present on the ground.
This Martian frost consisted of water, water ice, and frozen carbon dioxide. It
is
known that the Martian
North Pole consists of water ice, although this does not seem to be the case
for the South Pole. Scientists of the former Soviet Union believe that Mars may
still have flowing water
below the surface of its dried out river beds.
239
It
would also appear that Mars now has water vapor in its atmosphere, due to cloud
formations
an indication
that it was once much more plentiful than it is now. A great deal of water
could yet be
trapped below the ground in underground aquifers. Because the soil
of Mars is red, some scientists
believe it was previously a living planet like earth. They believe
that its soil became red due to the
processes of a once abundant plant life that oxidated its
atmosphere. Some past catastrophe appears to
have altered Mars. It
ripped away its protective atmospheric mantle, allowing most of its surface
water
to photolyze into the black void of outer space.
240
Mars Subjected to Nuclear Cataclysm
Mars
appears for all intents and purposes to be a dead planet. It may have once
supported a vast
amount of life, before the cataclysm responsible for its
destruction. The “death” of Mars may have
been caused by the periodic bombardment at 3,600 year intervals by
asteroids from the asteroid belt as
Nibiru passes between Jupiter and Mars. It may just as well have
been the result of a solar system war,
some epic battle fought by the Nibirians. Photographic analysis
indicates that Mars is scarred with
craters laid out in geometric patterns as discussed earlier.
Therefore, it seems unlikely that all craters on
its surface could be the
result of repeated passing’s of planet Nibiru. It could be that the “war in
heaven ”
described in Revelation 12:7-9, may indeed have been a “solar
system war.” In this conflict, key bases
of the Nibirians were systematically destroyed, leaving dead,
burned-out planets, pulverized moons, and
crumbling ruins as system-wide evidence of this past calamity.
Could
this be why there are thousands of large craters strategically located on the
various
planets? Is this why traces of radiation are still being emitted
by some of them?
241
Graphic evidence of
such a battle can be
discerned. Those who study the archaeological remnants of the Cydonia City on
Mars have found evidence
of nuclear war. The very tip of the nose on the famous “Face on Mars”
appears to have been shot
off The tip is lying on the cheek of the enormous visage below the right eye,
which ironically creates
the illusion if a teardrop; or an Egyptian wedjat eye.
242
This
immense
monument is not the only damaged structure found in Cydonia. The
five-sided D & M pyramid also
appears to have been damaged by explosive penetration.
243
The
unusually high number of heavy impact craters dotting many areas of Mars may
have been
caused by sophisticated nuclear weapons.
244
The large
head in the Utopia region is badly damaged. In
fact, it appears to have
had the lower portion of its face blasted into. The face is badly scarred,
being
much darker than the upper half. It looks as if some powerful
weapon sprayed buckshot into it,
destroying part of it, and peppering the rest of it with tiny bits
of shrapnel.
