What is the water shell of the earth. The main spheres of the planet Earth: lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere

Another moon will appear - artificial, writes "People's Daily". According to the publication, an artificial satellite that reflects sunlight will be nine times brighter than the real moon. This should eliminate the need for lantern lighting in some parts of the country.

The diameter of the light spot from the new moon will be adjustable - from 10 to 80 kilometers. Among the developers is the Chinese Research Institute of Microelectronic Systems for Space.

The technical conditions for the implementation of the idea, as the Chinese say, are already ready. At the same time, they assure that the light from the satellite will not disturb people and animals, since its brightness will be approximately the same as at dusk.

The main problems of the artificial moon project are its high cost, the complexity of launching into orbit and mounting mirrors, as well as their guidance, taking into account space debris flying in earth orbit. Technically, the project is too costly and practically unfeasible, says research supervisor Ivan Moiseev:

Nothing will come of them. This is too large, difficult to manage design, while such can not be done. This moment was discussed many times, six or seven years ago, when the current head of Roscosmos took up the duties of Deputy Prime Minister, this was his first proposal - to cover the polar regions in this way. It is technically impossible to deploy a large, kilometer-long structure, stabilize it, orient it, constantly have to turn, fuel is wasted, and again, there must be a fairly rigid structure.

- In some medium term, is it possible that the necessary technical solutions will be found?

Bring out a large mass, spend a lot of money on servicing this mass in space, and it will illuminate, say, the polar regions - theoretically, everything can be done, but it will cost such money that the polar bears who need it will not pay.

- Purely theoretically, if such a project is implemented, will it be visible from the territory of Russia?

The directional beam is not visible for 80 kilometers. When the lantern shines, it is visible from the place where it shines, but from the side it is no longer visible. We will find him in a position from the side.

A similar project is being prepared for launch by SpaceX. Already in November, the Falcon 9 will launch an object made of heat-resistant film into orbit. At an altitude of 560 kilometers, it will turn around and take the form of a stele. This mini satellite, about 30 meters long, will shine in the night sky by reflecting sunlight.

SpaceX does not pursue any practical goal: the company positions its brainchild exclusively as an art object. The project, worth just over a million dollars, was funded by private donations. You can see the lunar stele with the naked eye. True, it is relatively short: it will flicker for only about three months. Then the orbital reflector will descend into the dense layers of the atmosphere and burn out.

I remember that either in "Technology-Youth", or in "Quantum" (there were worthy times!) I read about the hollow moon hypothesis. At that time, this theory best explained the numerous anomalies associated with our satellite.

But even if the author of the hypothesis was wrong, it still follows from his conclusions that the Moon is an artificial object. It remains to prove this experimentally. Although some forces are clearly opposed to this. After all, launching satellites to Venus, Mars or Pluto is much more difficult than launching satellites to the Moon. Launching into the distance without having thoroughly studied the nearest neighbor does not seem quite logical.

Below is an incomprehensible picture from London Ru, allegedly taken with the help of a well-known Google program at the very moment of its launch. The authors captioned the photo as follows:

You will not find this image either in the archives of NASA or in Roscosmos. What you see in the photo is a unique shot of the lock system, the entrance to the inner space of the moon.”.

Believe it or check it out)
Is the moon an artificially created object?

The Moon is Earth's closest neighbor in our Universe. Its diameter is slightly more than a quarter of the diameter of our planet. The spacecraft can overcome 384,400 km, which separates us from our satellite, in less than 3 days. The moon is a rocky spherical body, devoid of atmosphere and, apparently, life. This can be learned from school textbooks.

Here is what, for example, "Preliminary report on the flight of the Apollo 17 spacecraft" says. “The Apollo experiments to determine whether the Moon is a “living” planet or a “dead” planet show that, compared to the Earth, the Moon is seismically calm… Volcanism and other tectonic activity have been rare or absent over the past 2 -3 billion years. »

Official science prefers (I note that this is not an official theory, but only a preferred one) the following theory of the origin of the Moon:

Quote: “The moon and the earth were formed simultaneously by the union and compaction of a large swarm of small particles. But the Moon as a whole has a lower density than the Earth, so the substance of the protoplanetary cloud should have separated with the concentration of heavy elements in the Earth. In this regard, an assumption arose that the Earth was the first to form, surrounded by a powerful atmosphere enriched in relatively volatile silicates; during subsequent cooling, the substance of this atmosphere condensed into a ring of planetesimals, from which the Moon was formed ... "

Simply, this is the only possible option for the presence of the Moon in Earth orbit.

But if you carefully read the above theory, then I think, not being professors, you should have noticed in it a complete violation of the laws of physics. I'm not even talking about these very "planetesimals", apparently borrowed from Isaac Asimov or the Strugatskys, or from anyone else ...

After even if not the complete formation of the Earth, a gravitational field has already formed around it, which would attract these same planetesimals. So, there was no question of any formation of the Moon, and even of such a volume, near the Earth !!!

Where did this satellite come from on our planet? Let not the largest in the solar system, but the largest in relation to its planet. The density of the Moon also speaks of unusual conditions for the formation. It is 3.3 times the density of water, which is less than any of the terrestrial planets: Earth itself, Mercury, Venus and Mars, and analysis of lunar soil - the resulting age of 4.1 billion years - compared to 5, 5 billion years for the Earth - only confused scientists.

The fact that a stone lies on the surface of the Moon is a clear matter (a whole army of scientists examined samples of lunar soil in their earthly laboratories). What's under it? It would seem that everything is simple - on top of the crust, inside the mantle and the molten core. So it is, only in 1969, before Neil Armstrong landed on the moon, used fuel tanks of unmanned reconnaissance ships were dropped on its surface. Then a seismograph was also left here, which transmitted information about the fluctuations of the lunar crust.

After processing the data, scientists came to the conclusion that under the rocky surface is metal shell 30-40 km thick. Later, a computer analysis was made of the substance that this shell consists of. We received nickel, beryllium, tungsten, vanadium, some iron and some other elements. But the main discovery is such a shell, by no means could not form naturally.

No less surprised was the fact that under the shell, among other things, is 73.5 cubic kilometers of almost empty space. Evidence that there is a metal shell under the lunar surface is also the fact that most of the many kilometers of craters have an unusually flat bottom, like a frying pan. In other words, no matter how big or small the meteorite was, it left the same depth on the lunar surface!!!.

In the late 60s, Soviet researchers M. Vasin and A. Shcherbakov suggested that the Moon is an artificial object, a kind of spacecraft that was transported to the Earth, and that under its surface, at a depth of tens of kilometers, there is a huge habitable cavity about 50 km high, having an atmosphere suitable for its inhabitants, technical devices, etc. The lunar crust is a multi-kilometer protective shell for a cavity.

Back in the early 60s, astronomer Carl Sagan reported that special instruments had discovered under the lunar surface huge caves conditions that may be favorable for life. Some of them reach 100 cu. km. The director of the Main Observatory of the USSR in Pulkovo, Alexander Deutsch, expressed the same hypothesis at that time.

The hypothesis that the Moon is a giant spaceship that crashed and was forced in ancient times to “park” to the Earth for “overhaul” appeared for a reason. After all, natural space bodies with their multi-kilometer protective shell, some scientists believe, are the safest and most reliable vehicles for interplanetary travel.

And also unusual in the Moon is that it is somewhat large for a satellite. What if only one side is visible?

Well, it's clear with the unknown origin of the moon. And that means that it entails another topic. The theme of alien life. Who has no desire to discuss this topic ... then it is not at all clear why you are reading my exposé about the artificial origin of the moon? ...

... People have been studying an object called the Moon for a long time. Already in the 2nd century BC, Hipparchus spoke on this topic, in the 2nd century AD. — Claudius Ptolemy. Such pundits as Heraclitus, Aristotle, Galileo Kepler, Newton also had a hand in studying it ... the list goes on.

Ancient philosophers such as Heraclitus, Xenophon, and Thales seriously believed that intelligent life existed on the moon. And they did not even hesitate to speak and write about it in their treatises. Diogenes Laertes wrote that Heraclitus from Pontus spoke about his acquaintance with one descended "Selenite". Neocles of Croton believed that an egg once fell from the moon, containing a woman.

Johannes Kepler in his book “Discourse with a Starry Messenger” wrote about the population of the Moon: “They dig huge areas, surrounding them with dug soil, maybe to get moisture from the depths; and so, below, behind dug hills, they hide in the shade and inside, in accordance with the movement of the Sun, they walk around, following the shadow, and this depression represents something like an underground city, where houses are private caves dug in this circular rotation , and in the middle - fields and pastures, so that avoiding the Sun, not to go far from food ... "

Back in the 18th century, astronomer William Herschel first drew the attention of scientists to the lights, lines and geometric shapes on the surface of the moon. Since then, anomalous phenomena on its surface have been observed constantly.

Already in our time, having been systematically observing the Moon with an 800x telescope for more than 10 years, the Japanese Yatsuo Mitsushima repeatedly filmed the passages of dark objects over different parts of the Moon with a video camera. The materials he received are sensational: the diameter of objects is on average about 20 kilometers, and the speed of movement is about 200 kilometers per second.

In preparation for landing a man on the moon, a detailed study of its surface was carried out by photographing with the help of spacecraft. NASA specialists received more than 140,000 photographs. Most of them are of excellent quality, and the optical resolution of the equipment made it possible to find something on the Moon that we were completely unprepared for ...

In 1977, a book by a certain J. Leonard was published in the UK with a sensational title: "There is someone else on our Moon" and the subtitle: "Amazing facts of intelligent life on the Moon discovered." Who is hiding under the pseudonym J. Leonard? Unknown. In any case, this is a well-informed person who managed to gain access to extensive, including top-secret information.

Thirty-five photographs, each accompanied by a NASA code number, dozens of detailed drawings, according to the author, made from high-quality large-format NASA photographs published in this book, expert statements and an extensive bibliography lead the reader to a stunning conclusion: NASA and many scientists from the world name know for many years that there are signs of intelligent life on the moon!

Analyzing the images transmitted by Ranger-7 after its safe landing near the crater and taken by astronauts from low orbit when flying around the Moon, the author, like NASA experts, came to an unequivocal conclusion: there are numerous mechanisms and structures on the surface of the moon.

According to J. Leonard, most of these huge mechanisms have been destroyed, but others clearly continue to work. Some objects change their shape, disappear or reappear on the slopes or bottom of a crater. The greatest activity is observed on the visible side of the moon. So, in the zone of King's crater there is a large number of mechanical devices, called by the author "X-Drones", because they resemble the letter "X" in shape. These "excavators" a mile and a half in size develop the slopes of the crater, breaking off the rocky soil and throwing it to the surface.

J. Leonard believes that a pipeline about three miles long was laid from the crest of the King crater, the ends of which are covered with identical caps. Similar structures were discovered by the Japanese explorer Mitsui and described in the book Explorations of the Moon.

J. Leonard's book contains many impressive descriptions of various mechanisms towering above the surface of the Moon and tracking the movement of the Sun.

“Seven miles from Bulliald, Ranger 7 took unique pictures. A metal large object, partly in shadow, has a rounded shape, a cylinder and a turret on its top. Holes are visible on the cylinder at an equal distance from each other. Mist or steam comes out of the turret. Identification marks are visible on the objects.

Are lunar technological activities related to UFOs? An analysis of NASA photographs and some statements by astronauts give an affirmative answer to this question.

J. Leonard quotes astronaut Gordon ("Apollo 15"): “When we passed 30-40 feet, a mass of objects flew nearby - so white and sparkling, they clearly had an engine”.

American astronauts had code words for Houston in case they found something unusual on or near the moon, for example: "Anibel" means a sparkling fire on or near the moon, "Barbara" is a structure, "Saint Nicholas" is a UFO .

"Anibel" was observed by astronauts in the Sea of ​​Crises. 2- and 3-storey rectangular structures were also found here, and the upper floor was a similar rectangle, but smaller. Sometimes at the base of the lower rectangle one could see large round holes arranged in a row at the same distance from each other.

At the bottom of the Copernicus crater is a structure in the form of a triangle placed on the base. On its lateral surface, one can distinguish signs resembling numbers and geometric shapes. As for the signs, on the surface of the Moon, judging by the photographs, one can find luminous (possibly in the reflected light of the Sun) signs, for example, in the form of blue crosses installed vertically in the ground.

Usually the same sign is installed in those places where there are mechanisms united by some one technological function. So, near the craters in which X-Drones operate, blue crosses are installed. In other places, signs in the form of an arrow are visible.

J. Leonard believes that the King crater and its environs can be something like the base of another civilization, since it is there that the platforms are located that rise above the surface on 0.5 miles. Many of them are across 6 to 10 miles. It is difficult for us on Earth to imagine structures of this size.

It is impossible not to mention the highly controversial assumption of J. Leonard: “Large areas of the surface are covered with the remains of something resembling a camouflage net of cables intersecting at right angles. Maybe once the surface of the Moon was disguised with the help of dust, pebbles, rubble and artificial craters under an ordinary planet? Now we see the remnants of disguise after the cataclysm on the moon".

It is the cataclysm that explains the researcher such a large destruction of mechanisms, pipelines and structures. To a large extent, this is supported by NASA photographs. Pipe systems have been discovered, laid on the surface and descending the slope of the crater to go deep into the moon. However, many pipelines have been destroyed…

"Wow! Astronaut Harrison Schmitt, the pilot of the Apollo 17 lunar module, could not contain his surprise, already on the first revolution around the Moon, “I just saw a flash on the lunar surface! The next day, during the fourteenth revolution around the moon, it was the turn to be surprised by another pilot of Apollo! 7— Ronald Evans: "Well! You know I would never believe! I am right above the edge of the Eastern Sea. I just looked down and saw a bright flash with my own eyes!”

When one of the most serious authorities on the physical and geological nature of the Moon, Dr. Farouk El-Baz, consultant and assistant to many American astronauts, was asked to comment on these observations, his answer was quite categorical: “There is no doubt that this is something grandiose: these are not comets, and this not natural origin!".

It should be noted that strange light phenomena on the lunar disk have been known for a long time. As early as May 3, 1715, while observing a lunar eclipse in Paris, astronomer E. Louville noticed at the western edge of the Moon “some flashes or instantaneous trembling of light rays ... These light flashes were very short-lived and appeared in one place or another ...”.

It could be assumed that meteors were observed against the background of the Moon, burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. However, at the same time as E. Louville, the famous E. Halley observed similar outbreaks in the same region of the Moon in the British Isles. Is it worth explaining that the same meteors burning at a height of several kilometers above the Earth cannot be seen against the background of the same region of the Moon at the same time in London and Paris?

And in the library of the Royal Astronomical Society there is a lot of information about strange light spots and fluctuations of light on the moon. For example, astronomers have long been attracted to the strange light that periodically appears in lunar craters. Especially often in the craters Plato and Aristarchus. Often moving objects are observed in the Seas of Crises and Tranquility. So, in the region of the latter in 1964, at least four times, light or dark spots were seen, moving tens and even hundreds of kilometers in a few hours.

On September 11, 1967, within 8-9 seconds, Canadian scientists recorded a dark rectangular spot with purple edges here, which was clearly visible until it entered the night region. And after 13 minutes. in the direction of the spot, near the crater Sabine, there was a flash of yellow light. And apparently, it was not by chance that Apollo 11 landed in this zone a year and a half later. The study of the lunar soil at the landing site surprised even the experts. It was melted and, according to Professor T. Gold, with energy 100 times more powerful than the Sun emits. What this source was is unknown. Experts believe that he was at a low altitude above the moon.

In 1968, NASA published a catalog of puzzling lunar sightings in its Chronological Catalog of Lunar Event Reports. Over the 4 centuries that the catalog covers, 579 examples have been recorded that science has not yet given an explanation for: moving luminous objects (just points and even entire columns of light), disappearing craters, colored trenches lengthening at a speed of 6 km / h, giant domes that change their color; a large luminous object, called the "Maltese Cross", observed on November 26, 1956, a strange gas appearing above the surface of the Moon, etc. The Catalog also recorded the speed of movement of the above-mentioned spots in the Sea of ​​Tranquility - from 32 to 80 km / h.

One of the most interesting recent observations belongs to a Japanese amateur astronomer. Our television has repeatedly played a video recording of a shadow that he made with a telescope quickly moving across the surface of the moon. If this is not a hoax, then the size of the shadow (about 20 km in diameter) and the enormous speed of its movement (for 2 seconds the shadow traveled about 400 km) allow us to speak of a high technical level of the object.

Also on April 25, 1972, the Passau observatory recorded on photographic film in the region of the craters Aristarchus and Herodotus a grandiose “light fountain”, which reached a height of 162 km at a speed of 1.35 km / s, shifted to the side by 60 km and disappeared.

All these facts forced NASA to purposefully and seriously deal with anomalous phenomena on the Earth's satellite. In 1972, a special program was created, to which dozens of experienced "public" observers armed with telescopes were connected. Each of them has been assigned four lunar regions by NASA, where lunar phenomena have been repeatedly observed in the past. Numerous symposiums and articles have been devoted to these oddities.

Scientists are desperately trying to find the natural cause of lunar phenomena, but so far without much success. At the same time, there is a rather unexpected point of view on everything that happens. “They (scientists,” writes J. Leonard, “disregard (consciously or unconsciously) the simple truth, which is that the phenomena of lunar phenomena are associated with inhabitants on the Moon who carry out their purposeful activities.”

What speaks in favor of such a bold hypothesis? Much, very much! For example, strange objects resembling some kind of mechanisms. The purpose of some devices can be guessed from the changes in the lunar surface that they leave. For example, the edges of some craters are destroyed by something that moves along them in a spiral (this is reminiscent of our giant open pit mines).

Many craters, especially on the far side of the Moon, have a pronounced polygonal shape, which has not yet been explained. During the flight around the moon of Apollo 14, the astronauts took a very interesting photo. This is a clear image of a giant mechanical device, later called the "superdevice-1971". Two light and openwork (metal?) structures stand inside one of the craters. And without casting any shadow. From their base stretch long cords. According to rough estimates, the size of the device is 1-1.5 miles (1.6-2.4 km).

Repeatedly there are mechanisms similar to a scoop for capturing soil (they were called "T-scoops"). To the east of the Smith Sea, on the far side of the Moon, near Sanger Crater, there is an area where you can see the results of their work: the device has already removed a huge section of the central slide and is on the edge, continuing to work. Heaps of cobblestones pile up nearby.

Striking results are obtained by comparing three photographs of the same area taken from Apollo 16 during 50 revolutions around the moon. On the inner slope of the crater, an X-device was recorded in an early image. After 2 days, an active spraying process was recorded in the same place.

One can only speculate what these mechanisms are used for: the search for raw materials, construction work, the elimination of defects in the lunar crust, archaeological tasks, the extraction of gas to create an artificial atmosphere? almost a ton of oxygen. This reserve is enough for an earthling for 3 years! "Isn't that why THEY destroy mountain ranges? asks J. Leonard.

Objects that move, leaving a trail behind them, look very impressive in the pictures. In NASA they are conditionally called "cobblestones". J. Leonard claims that American astronauts examined 34 such tracks in the Apollo 17 landing area. The length of the tracks varied from 100 m to 2.5 km. The width reached 16 m. As a rule, they were grouped in 8-10. Most of the objects they referred to were 20-30% wider than the tracks themselves. Some were oblong and the size of a room. How could they sometimes roll on an almost horizontal surface? And another mysterious fact: of the 34 traces examined, only 8 ended in boulders. What left other traces?

US military consultant William Cooper in 1989 published an article in the Razvitie newspaper in which he tells how at one time Alien ships have accompanied every launch and landing of Americans on the moon.

The life of the lunar natives was filmed by the participants of the Apollo mission: “Domes and vaults, gabled roofs, tall round structures, like the letter T, mining machines that leave stitch-like marks on the surface of the Moon, huge or very small alien spaceships.

Information about encounters with UFOs in lunar orbit is also found in Soviet secret archives. There is a recording of a conversation between Neil Armstrong and Baz Aldrin with a base in Houston. The astronauts are quite explicit about the fact that in front of them are the ships of other creatures, and the creatures themselves are watching them.

And in conclusion, I would like to cite the amazing words of Neil Armstrong. And although he later refused them, his negotiations were heard by many American radio amateurs.

Armstrong: "What is it? What the hell is the matter? I would like to know the truth, what is it?

NASA: "What's happening? Is something wrong?

Armstrong: “There are big objects here, sir! Huge! Oh my God! There are other spaceships here! They are on the other side of the crater! They are on the moon and watching us!”

Wasn't this the main reason that ALL projects for flights to the moon were curtailed then - after all, it was already busy !!!

P .S: Our generation is convinced that seemingly unshakable stereotypes can be destroyed in the shortest possible time, and we are gradually weaning ourselves from categorical judgments. Although sometimes we continue to presumptuously and arrogantly ridicule what does not fit into our usual earthly standards.

And when analyzing lunar phenomena, we must change our way of thinking, free ourselves from blinkered perception ...

The Moon... Many, raising their eyes to the night sky, often caught themselves thinking that the Moon attracts their eyes and makes them tune in to their own, unique way. Why? Aren't there more objects in the sky? There are: the sun, clouds, stars. But the Moon stands apart in this list. Since ancient times, the best minds of mankind have been thinking about this satellite of the Earth, but only in the 60s of the 20th century Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov from the Academy of Sciences of the USSR put forward the hypothesis that in reality our satellite was created artificially. This hypothesis, destroying all the foundations of traditional science, has eight main arguments that focus on a number of obvious facts about the moon.

The first riddle: an artificial satellite.

Calculations have shown that the orbit of motion and the size of the Moon are physically practically impossible. The magnitude of the Moon is equal to a quarter of the magnitude of the Earth, and the ratio of the magnitudes of the satellite and the planet is always many times smaller. In the studied part of the cosmos there is no other example of such a ratio.

The distance from the Moon to the Earth is such that the sizes of the Sun and the Moon are visually the same, which is also not found anywhere else. This is what makes it possible to observe from the Earth such a rare phenomenon as a total solar eclipse, when the Moon completely covers the Sun. The same mathematical impossibility holds for the masses of both celestial bodies.

If the Moon were a cosmic body, which at a certain moment was attracted by the Earth and eventually acquired a natural orbit, then calculated and practically this orbit would have to be elliptical. Instead, it is strikingly round.

The second mystery: the implausibility of the profile.

The implausibility of the profile that the Moon's surface possesses is inexplicable. The moon is not the round body it should be. The results of geological surveys on it lead to the conclusion that this planetoid is a hollow ball. Although it is, modern science fails to explain how the Moon can have such a strange structure without self-destructing.

One explanation offered by Vasin and Shcherbakov is that the lunar crust is "made" of a solid titanium framework. Indeed, it has been proven that the lunar crust and rocks have extraordinary levels of titanium content. According to their own estimates, the thickness of the titanium layer is about 30 kilometers.

The third riddle: lunar craters.

The explanation for the huge number of meteorite craters on the surface of the Moon is widely known and extremely understandable - the absence of an atmosphere. Most cosmic bodies that are trying to penetrate the Earth encounter kilometers of atmosphere on their way and simply burn up in it. Few space "cobblestones" are "lucky" to reach the surface.

The moon does not have this protective shell that would protect its surface from meteorites. What remains inexplicable is the shallow depth to which the aforementioned guests from outer space were able to penetrate. Indeed, it looks as if a layer of extremely strong substance did not allow meteorites to penetrate closer to the center of the satellite.

Even craters with a diameter of 150 kilometers do not exceed 4 kilometers in depth! Although calculated, a body capable of leaving a crater of this size would have to break through at least 50 kilometers deep. There is no such crater on the Moon.

The fourth riddle: the seas.

How were the "lunar seas" formed? What is it? Where? These gigantic areas of solid lava, which must originate from the interior of the Moon, could easily be explained if the Moon were a hot planet with a liquid interior, where they could originate from meteorite impacts. But the Moon, judging by its size, has always been a cold body and had no "intraplanetary" activity. Another mystery is the location of the "lunar seas". Why are 80% of them on the visible side of the Moon and only 20 on the invisible side?

Fifth riddle: mascons.

The gravitational pull on the moon's surface is not uniform. This effect has already been noted by the American crew of Apollo VIII when they circled the lunar seas. Mascones (concentration of mass) are places where matter is thought to exist in greater density or in greater quantity. This phenomenon is actually closely related to the lunar seas, since the mascons are located almost below them.

Sixth riddle: inexplicable asymmetry.

A rather unexpected fact, for which no explanation can be found so far, is the geographical asymmetry of the Moon's surface. The dark side of the Moon has many more craters (this is at least somewhat understandable), mountains and landforms. In addition, as we have already mentioned, most of the seas, on the contrary, are located on the side that is visible from the Earth.

Seventh riddle: low density.

The density of our satellite is 60% of the density of the Earth. This fact, together with various studies, once again proves that the Moon is a hollow object. And according to some scientists, the aforementioned cavity is clearly artificial.

In fact, given the location of the surface layers that have been identified, scientists argue that the Moon looks like a planet that formed "in reverse", and some use this as an argument in favor of the "artificial casting or assembly" theory.

Eighth riddle: origin.

In the last century, three theories of the origin of the moon were conditionally accepted for a long time. At present, most of the scientific community, of course not formally, has accepted the hypothesis of the artificial origin of the planetoid of the Moon as no less justified than others.

The first and oldest of the theories suggests that the Moon is a fragment of the Earth, but the huge differences in the nature of the two bodies make this approach practically untenable.

The second theory is that this celestial body was formed at the same time as the Earth, from the same cloud of cosmic gas. But this is also untenable, since the Earth and the Moon would have to have a similar structure.

The third theory suggests that, wandering through space, the Moon fell into the gravity of the Earth, which turned it into its "captive", having previously captured it. The big flaw with this explanation is that the Moon's orbit is practically circular and cyclic. With such a phenomenon (when the satellite is "captured" by the planet), the orbit will be quite distant from the center or represent an ellipsoid. And in our case, the Moon seems to be specially “suspended” precisely on this unnatural orbit.

The fourth assumption is the most fantastic of all, but it explains the various anomalies and absurdities associated with the Earth's satellite. If the Moon were constructed by intelligent beings, then the physical laws to which it is subject would not apply equally to other celestial bodies.

Summary.

In this case, it is appropriate to ask the question: if this theory is correct, then for what purpose was the Moon created and designed? There is an explanation that the Moon was built by ancient humanity (we will call it that for now), which had sufficient technology and capabilities to implement this global project and served some utilitarian purpose. Correction of the Earth's climate, providing the planet with "free" light at night, an intermediate spaceport - it is now impossible for us to understand what goals the ancient creators pursued.

The mysteries of our only satellite, put forward by the scientists Vasin and Shcherbakov, are only some of the real physical estimates of the anomalies of the Moon. In addition, there is a lot of video and photographic evidence, the results of research, for the most part classified by governments, giving reason to assert that our "natural" satellite is not one.

The article is written on the basis of materials obtained from open sources of information.

The authorities of the Chinese city of Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, announced a plan bordering on fantasy to put an artificial “moon satellite” into low Earth orbit. Local media, citing Chinese engineers, report that the launch of the satellite with illumination should take place in 2020. Work on the project has been going on for several years and is already approaching its main phase of implementation. The artificial "moon" will be eight times brighter than the Earth's satellite and partially replace street lighting in the city of Chengdu.

According to the plan of the engineers, the artificial "moon" will complement the natural night lighting, while covering a radius of 10-80 km with an accuracy of several meters. The device has a very powerful reflective element that will redirect sunlight to the desired area. The satellite will be controlled remotely. The backlight will be adjusted so that it only illuminates Chengdu.

More detailed technical features of the artificial "moon" have not yet been reported. However, according to engineers and officials, the technology will save on electricity, which is spent on street lighting. In addition, the project is sure to attract tourists.

Night lighting will not be very bright, so it will seem to the locals that it is twilight outside. The level of illumination will be quite enough to move freely through the streets and distinguish objects.

Chinese experts assure that such light will not affect nocturnal animals and birds in any way, but environmentalists have a different opinion on this matter. In addition, some experts say that such an installation can disrupt the biological rhythm of local residents.

The inspiration for the creation of an artificial "moon" was the idea of ​​a French artist who proposed placing several mirrors in orbit. The idea was that the mirrors would reflect sunlight and keep the streets of Paris lit up all year round.

It should be noted that in the 1990s, Russia conducted similar experiments to create artificial solar lighting. It was planned to conduct three experiments, but only one was successful. The second ended in failure, and the third did not take place and the program was eventually closed.

The mission "Znamya-2" turned out to be successful. A reflector mounted on the Progress ship was deployed near the Mir station. The installation created a bright spot 8 km wide. The reflected light traveled along a trajectory from southern France to western Russia at a speed of 8 km/s. During the Znamya-2.5 experiment, it was planned to open a 25-meter reflector. The mirror should have been perceived from the Earth as 5-10 full moons in brightness and would form a track about 7 km in diameter, which could be controlled by holding it in one place for a long time. failed. At the beginning of the opening, the shell caught on the antenna. The Progress M-40 spacecraft was de-orbited and sunk in the ocean.

Some experts point out that such installations can actually bring practical benefits, at least in theory. For example, such lighting satellites could be used in emergency areas without artificial lighting. In addition, such artificial lighting can be used in agriculture, increasing the length of the day for growth.
