Life inside China's 'Heavenly Palace'


Alleged photo of TSS Heavenly Palace (CGI?)
Tiangong
(Chinese 天宫, Pinyin Tiāngōng, lit. "Heavenly Palace") [5][6], officially the Tiangong Space Station [7] (Chinese 天宫空间站, Pinyin Tiāngōng Kōngjiānzhàn), is a permanently crewed space station constructed by China and operated by China Manned Space Agency [8].

Tiangong is a modular design, with pieces docked together while in low Earth orbit, between 210 and 280 miles (340 and 450 kms) above the surface of Planet Earth.

Modules of the Heavenly Palace (TSS)
It is China's first long-term space station, part of the Tiangong program and the core of the "Third Step" of the China Manned Space Program. It has a pressurized volume of 12,000 cubic feet (340 m3), slightly over one-third the size of the US's International Space Station.

Tiangong Space Station aims to provide opportunities for space-based experiments and a platform for building capacity for scientific and technological innovation [9] far in excess of Europe, the US, or any other human efforts on the planet currently. More

Dolphins welcome back lost astronauts


Dolphins welcome SpaceX Crew-9 Dragon spacecraft off coast of Florida after splashdown
How to keep Americans believing in NASA?
(VideoFromSpace) March 18, 2025: A pod of dolphins swam around SpaceX Dragon "Freedom" carrying Crew-9 on March 18, 2025, during its dramatic splashdown. It looks staged like SpaceX is thought to have done previously with NASA's help, and many feel it has been partially faked with CGI, but then how were the dolphin actors trained to be right on cue? Is it a psyops campaign to keep us distracted about secret space programs that utilize secret antigravity technology that have nothing to do with fiery rockets shooting sideways into the sea to be recovered rather than making it into the "vacuum" of space where their propulsion would have no effect. Full story: space.com/space-exploration... The spacecraft was being prepped for hoisting onto the recovery vessel. Credit: NASA

Space Archaeology with Sarah (TED Talk)

Dr. Sarah Parcak (TED Talk, March 2012); Pat Macpherson, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Archaeology From Space
In this brief and exciting talk, TED Fellow Dr. Sarah Parcak introduces the field of "space archaeology" -- the use of satellite imaging to search for clues to lost sites of past human civilizations. More "I wish for us to discover the millions of unknown archaeological sites" around the world, says Parcak. "By building an online citizen science platform and training a 21st century army of global explorers, we'll find and protect the world's hidden heritage, which contains clues to humankind's collective resilience and creativity." VIDEO: Presented at an official TED conference. Featured by TED editors on the TED home page.

Meteor shower over the plane of Earth (video)

CNET, C2C; Eric Dubay (AG); Seth Auberon, Pfc. Sandoval, CC Liu (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

The devas put off much more light.
NASA Astro[not] Christina Koch captured a [photoshopped] photo of the Quadrantid meteor shower in early January 2020 from her vantage point aboard the extreme low-earth International "Space" Station (ISS) up just 50 miles or so well within the spheres above the atmosphere.

The image, by Koch's own admission, is not a "photo"; it is a touched up composite fabricated and adjusted to show what NASA wants shown and conceal what it does not want shown.

It's also strange that stars are suddenly visible in this image when most images from this height leave them out, claiming they can't be seen from here.
.
Like photos photoshopped, fabricated, composed, collaged, composited? Then love this.
.
Russia's space program officially announced that our moon is within the atmosphere, suggesting that it is either much smaller and closer than NASA is willing to tell us or that the atmosphere goes much, much farther out. Russians have never explained, nor have they ever retracted their official announcement.

It looks curvy, too curvy to be this close (Tw).
Hey, but the "curve" is clearly visible! Yeah, it's a NASA ("never a straight answer") photo, but what about this curve? Most of the time it's the fish-eye lens effect, and others photos are touched up, and yet others are completely flat without explanation.

Koch's stunning image is thought to show streaks of several "shooting stars" between the green glow of the aurora borealis or northern  lights and the lights of a unknown city below. "Can you see shooting starts [sic] from space? Turns out, yes!" Koch tweeted from ISS. More
200 proofs we can't disprove so we ignore
Eric Dubay via Planet Plane) 200 Proofs Earth is Round but Not a Spinning Ball. This is SCIENCE that dares to question, not the denial of testable facts. Test them. Report honestly. Dubay may not have all the answers, but NASA is definitely lying and concealing many things while calling it "reality" and "open science." At least have the courage he has to question the deceptive fantasy NASA puts forward.

Awaken: NASA images are "fixed" and fake
First you say, "These photos are not fake! My country would not lie." Then seeing the evidence, including NASA's admissions that these are doctored images, you say, "Of course these images are photoshopped! They have to be to show stuff. Nobody ever siad they were 'photos.' My country would lie to others but not me. Blame NASA not my government."
.
NASA pretends atmosphere is "space"
If examined closely, the illusion fades and one sees that this "photo" (actually a heavily photoshopped image) is completely fake and ridiculous. The eye says that this is what is seen from a window or hatch with the ball earth right there.

But the ISS is very close to earth, very close, and in no way could ever get this image even with a fish eye lens. One can see sand on the coast of a massive continent that spans from one end of the earth nearly to the other. Note that the shape of the earth is not a globe but an exaggerated oblate spheroid.

The clouds are so close that the point of view is not from space but from the thermosphere (where it is too hot and ISS's stated components would all melt), ionosphere, or most likely just the stratosphere.

This is all earth's "atmosphere"? Behold, no stars! Note the fake colorization and color saturation, which differ from official NASA "photos" of the planet NASA annually posts on its official website.

NASA's flat earth at the "top of the atmosphere." Claimed altitude 208 miles or 335 kms (eol.jsc.nasa.gov). Crescent moon through top of atmosphere. Photographed above 21.5°N, 113.3°E by Int'l Space Station crew Expedition 13 over the South China Sea, south of Macau (NASA image ID: ISS013-E-54329).
.
Note absence of glowing atmospheric layers of gases. Note photoshopped shadows of missing clouds. Note glare of "hot spot" of nearby sun close to the center of photo, which would be utterly impossible if sun were 93 million miles away sending in light at a near straight angle.

The amazing this is not that we are fooled. We are little better than Soviets reading Pravda. For as Americans we know little of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). What is amazing is that "experts" are fooled into unquestioning obedience about these things.

Hollywood, look at us standing in front of a photoshopped Earth as "ball flying in space"!
.
And then once they realize this is clearly a deception at odds even with published facts, they keep quiet. They drink heavily. They keep their heads down to hold on to their jobs and reputations, implicitly participating in the cover up. Think. Question. Research. Or be a coward, a good German citizen during WW II, yes, a "Little Eichmann."

Control Center, Beijing (Xinhua/NPR)
Very early Sunday morning [Dec. 15, 2013], China's Moon rover, Yutu or "Jade Rabbit," separated from its lander and began its exploration.
 
This means that China has officially joined the USA and the former USSR as the only three [imperial] countries to make a soft landing and drop an exploratory vehicle on the Moon [named Chang'e in Chinese] safely. The Chinese state news agency Xinhua reports:
"The 140 kg six-wheeled rover touched the lunar surface at 4:35 a.m., leaving deep trace on the loose lunar soil. The process was recorded by the camera on the lander and the images were sent to the Earth, according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center.
"After the separation, the rover and lander will take photos of each other and start their own scientific explorations.
"Engineers made final checks of the environment of the landing site, the situation of the probe and the solar incidence angle late night on Saturday and sent signals of separation to Chang'e-3.
"Yutu, atop the probe, extended its solar panel and started to drive slowly to the transfer mechanism at 3:10. The transfer mechanism unlocked at 4:06 with one side reaching the moon's surface, allowing the rover to descend to the surface following a ladder mechanism."
As NPR reported yesterday, this is a big deal for China, as it shows off its technical prowess and is a point of national pride. But it's also a big deal for humankind. More

China rockets into space (video)

Steve Chao, , June 16, 2012

GOBI DESERT - China's latest space mission has successfully lifted off with the country's first female taikonaut. It is the next step in China's strategy to build a permanently-occupied space station of its own. It is now in a position to reveal the truth about the Moon, its archeological artifacts, stations, and occupants. The West's military-industrial complex must negotiate with the world's largest country and quite possibly its strongest economy if it has any hope of it maintaining the silence.

SpaceX’s Dragon capsule, which was scheduled to launch last weekend and berth with the ISS (International Space Station), had a minor malfunction. But the spacecraft is okay now according to the company: “Today’s launch was aborted when the flight computer detected slightly high pressure in the engine 5 combustion chamber,” the company said in a brief statement on Saturday. “We have discovered root cause and repairs are underway.” More

7 planets visible in the sky this week

Geoff Gaherty, Starry Night Education (Space.com via Yahoo! News)
Planet finder searches for exoplanets. Having found many of them, paid scientists now tow party line that they are "too hot" for life (msnbc.msn.com).

This week presents a rare opportunity to see all the major planets of the solar system in a single night.

Just after sunset tonight (Dec. 21) the two brightest planets will be shining, weather permitting. Venus, the brightest, rides low in the southwest just above the setting sun. Jupiter, the second brightest planet, is high in the south.

If you have a telescope, you can find Uranus and Neptune between Venus and Jupiter. The sloping line across the sky that the four planets define is called the ecliptic, because it is the line along which eclipses take place.

The sky maps of the planets available here show where to look to try to spot them this week. Get up around 6:00 am local time tomorrow morning, and you can see the rest of the planets.

The ecliptic is now sloping in the opposite direction, and along it are arrayed Mercury, the Moon, Saturn, and Mars. In the background are three of the brightest stars in the sky: Arcturus, Regulus, and Spica.

Pay particular attention to Spica because, over the next year, the Moon will make numerous close passes near Spica, actually passing in front of the star and occulting... More

The exo-planet count keeps growing, some covered in ice (interfacelift.com).

Recent UFO sightings (video)



() It's April, 2011 and recent footage from around the world of the latest UFO sightings is scaring me. All of these videos have made international news, and no one can explain these phenomena. Don't believe in aliens? Watch this, and I guarantee you will begin to think otherwise. These videos span just two year, from 2009 to early 2011.
(, July, 2011) The untranslated clips speak for themselves. Facebook.com/groups/discl0sur3, YouTube.com/user/DISCL0SUR3

(, Aug. 2011) Newly discovered, top secret NASA video shows a UFO following the Space Shuttle in orbit during a recent mission. NASA refusing to comment on the alien UFO sightings, even ordering astronauts to keep silent.

Alien craft following the Space Shuttle, near misses as a UFO races toward Earth's atmosphere, detailed accounts from eyewitnesses including astronauts, presidents, celebrities, military officials and personnel, dignitaries, and heads of state -- what is it going to take? They have all reported alien UFO activity.

Most notably, former NASA astronauts, military and civilian pilots, have reported close encounters with UFOs.



NASA and our shadow government can no longer deny or successfully cover up crop circles, reports, alien abductions, and close encounters. Documented proof of UFO encounters are replaced by stacks of redacted pages -- yet our government claims it knows nothing.

Meanwhile, other governments confess. WikiLeaks reveals low level (White House and below) discussion. But there are many levels above "top secret." So an official confession will sooner come from the Pentagon than the Obama administration. UFO encounters are on the rise all over the world, more so in near Earth orbit, as if they [and there are many alien groups, not a single "other"] want to bypass world governments and make themselves known.

American astronauts and Russian cosmonauts have been filming near misses with UFOs from the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station (ISS). Ground Control ignores the reports. One has to wonder, "What really happened to cause the fire on the MIR space station?" Visit launchpad39a.com for more videos.

Why NASA never returned to the Moon (video)

()

Is there an "alien base" on the Moon? More and more people are coming forward with stories and proof that this is true. Rumors suggest the base is on the far side of the Moon, the side never seen from Earth.

Why did our Moon landings stop instead of leading to humanity building a lunar base? It is far easier than a floating space station with no access to any raw materials or supplies. It is easier to launch craft to other planets or out of the solar system from the Moon.


According to NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong, space aliens have a base on the Moon and told us in no uncertain terms to get off and stay off the Moon! Sound far fetched?

Milton Cooper, a naval intelligence officer, says that not only does the alien Moon base exist, but the U.S. naval intelligence community refers to it as "Luna." There is a huge mining operation going on there. And it is where aliens keep huge mother ships, while trips to Earth are made via smaller "flying saucers."

The Week in Space

(Spaceflightnow, Mar. 27, 2010) — "VSS Enterprise" takes flight, and "space for the rest of us" moves a step forward. The Martian Rite of Spring commences, while the folks at JPL in Pasadena prep a "rover on steroids" for departure to the Red Planet. The Wizard Nebula is ready for its close-up, there's Roller Derby on Saturn's rings, Discovery is "go" for launch with orbital Olympics. And the crew of STS-134 prepares to go where no one has gone before. Finally, Buzz "Twinkle-Toes" Aldrin wows the judges on "Dancing with the Stars" -- or not.

News from Space (video)

(Space Flight Now) There are beings who reside in various spheres above Earth. They are called akasha devas in Buddhist cosmology, long in contact with human leaders, and their worlds range from Parinirmitta to Asura. Humans are reaching into their realm. The International Space Station (ISS) gets a room with a view like no other. Many wish NASA had as clear a view of what is next in space. "This Week in Space" talks to the exiled president of the "Constellation Nation," former NASA boss Mike Griffin, who equates the Obama decision to Nixon's cancellation of Apollo, only worse. Space Adventures' Eric Anderson, a leading space entrepreneur says the Obama plan is "brilliant...a masterstroke of US Space policy." Head spinning? Why not join him for a beautiful, relaxing ride on a Zeppelin! Yes, seven decades after the infamous "Oh, the humanity!" moment in New Jersey, the big airships are floating on a new wave of public interest.

Endeavour Astronauts take 2nd Space Walk

Meredith Kolodner (NYDaily News)

Endeavour astronauts connect Tranquility to the Int'l Space Station: Specialists Nicholas Patrick and Robert Behnken work outside the International Space Station during the second spacewalk of the STS-130 mission (NASA via GettyMission).

Two spacewalking astronauts got the power pumping in a new room in the International Space Station on Sunday. An ammonia leak, which spattered astronaut Nicholas Patrick's suit with the toxic substance, didn't stop him from making the much-needed repairs while floating in space. More>>

Int'l Space Station: the view from space

A glimpse from the International Space Station (ISS) looking at the Earth all terrestrial beings share. From space it's hard to tell there is chronic low-level conflict in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa thanks to the military-industrial complex that profits from exploiting the sentiments and resources of ethnic groups and the greed, aversion, delusion, and fear of individuals. Time on Earth is passing as this year compacted into 40 seconds reveals:

California Wildfires from Space; Spacewalk


Los Angeles County: 120,000+ acres burned (LA Times/Ricardo DeAratanhha/wusa9)

Astronauts Complete Overnight Spacewalk
Paul McDougall (InformationWeek, 9/2/09)

A pair of astronauts from the space shuttle Discovery changed out a 1,300 pound holding tank from the International Space Station (ISS) during a six and a half hour spacewalk that began Tuesday night and ended Wednesday morning. Astronauts Danny Olivas and Nicole Stott removed the bulky ammonia tank from the ISS and will replace it with a new module during a follow-up spacewalk later in the week. While Olivas and Stott worked out in space, station crewmembers were busy transferring 7.5 tons of cargo, including an exercise device named after comedian Stephen Colbert, from Discovery to the ISS.

California Wildfires from Space

Robert Mackey (The Lede, NY Times)

Smoke from California wildfires captured on Sunday by NASA’s Terra satellite. The Station Fire began last week in the Angeles National Forest just above the city, close to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA/GSFC/LaRC/JPL, MISR Team).

As my colleagues Randal Archibold and Sharon Otterman report, firefighters in California are still trying to get wildfires that started last week under control. On Monday, The Lede pointed to several views of the fires posted online. On Tuesday, the Web site Space Fellowship drew our attention to the photograph posted above, which is a view of the fires from space. This image was recorded on Sunday by a satellite camera managed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which is located in Pasadena, not far from the Angeles National Forest where one of the fires started. A larger version of the image is available from JPL... More>>
