U.S. astronaut, Resemblance Aldrin, the beyond man to walk on the Moon, alluded to a monolith detected on Mars^a moon Phobos. Tongue on a U.S. cable shield channel he said: ^aWe essential think about it the moons of Mars. There^as a monolith current ^a" a very first construction on this hardly any potato formed object that goes on the subject of Mars considering several seven hours. ^aWhen country foundation out about that they are separation to say, ^aWho put that there? Who put that there?^a Capably the universe put it current, or if you assist God put it current.^a In 2007 the Canadian Complete Commission funded a sketch for an unmanned lobby group to Phobos open as Vital (Phobos Inspection and Total Mars Exploration). Phobos is a exceptionally growing categorize for well ahead exploration. The moon itself has want been an anomaly; its orbital kind VIP it may be imitation. Haughty obnoxious hypothesize suggests that Phobos may in fact be a badly maintained spacecraft of the ^ageneration ark^a produce described by science writers such as Isaac Asimov.

The space agency is weighing a proposal to build a "gateway spacecraft" that would hang in space about 277,000 miles from the Earth and 38,000 miles past the moon -- more than a quarter million miles further into space than the orbit of the International Space Station.The Deep Space Habitat project is an attempt to work out optimum size of capsule, equipment and resources to send outside of the Earth-Moon system and into deep space and support a human crew of four. L2 is probable locationThe mission would most likely be the second LAGRANGIAN POINT OF THE EARTH-MOON SYSTEM or L2. Initial concept missions for the structure to cope with cover a SIXTY-DAY JAUNT into the inky blackness, and a much-longer 500-DAY VARIANT. "[Placing a spacecraft at the Earth-Moon Lagrange point beyond the moon as a test area for human access to deep space is the best near-term option to develop required flight experience and mitigate risk," concluded a recent NASA report. The new outpost -- which may be built from parts leftover from the construction of the ISS and as well as Russian and Italian hardware -- would be an ideal first mission for the heavy lift spacecraft dubbed Space Launch System (SLS) that is being developed at NASA. Artist concept of L2 stationWith the push for exploration Beyond Earth Orbit (BEO) increasing, a proposed habitat for human exploration outside the confines of Earth's immediate space is taking shape as NASA presses forward with the development of its new Deep Space Habitat (DSH) - a module-based habitation facility that will be used as part of manned exploration missions to the moon, asteroids, and eventually Mars wrote CHRIS GEBHARDT FOR NASA SPACEFLIGHT in the spring of 2012. Colin Lecher, writing for "POPULAR SCIENCE", notes Engineers at Marshall Space Flight Center and experts Johnson Space Center in Houston (led by NASA ASTRONAUT ALVIN DREW) are tinkering with the spaceship mockup, deciding the right size, necessary equipment, and everything else that's going to make a mission. The team's also planning what kind of toys will be sent along and built in. Some of it's the sort of thing you might expect from a trip like this--life support systems, food storage, etc.--but other parts of it are especially interesting. One of the best is a 3-D printer, which would allow astronauts to create any tools they need right on the spot. On the lower-tech side, there's also greenhouse for astronauts to grow their own and food, and a barrier of water on the outside that could be used to shield explorers from cosmic rays, notes Lecher.Apollo 11 lunar astronaut Buzz Aldrin has long urged NASA to set up a similar "FLOATING LAUNCHING PAD" at a different balance point between Earth and the Moon, called EML-1 OR L1, and he told "IO9" that platforms at L1 or L2, plus fueling depots for spaceships, would serve as appropriate "intermediate steps" for voyages to Mars and other worlds. Bigelow Aerospace lunar habitatAldrin's vision calls for NASA to lead in the construction of the infrastructure needed for space transport beyond Earth orbit, while leaving the development of facilities on the Moon's surface to commercial ventures. A human-tended station at EML-1 or EML-2 could help direct the robotic construction of habitats and factories on the moon, to be occupied at a later time by humans. Aldrin touted Phobos to President ObamaThe eventual goal would be to have a human-tended station on the Martian moon Phobos, directing robots to build facilities for permanent residents on the Red Planet. And then? "We make a commitment to permanence," Aldrin explained. "It's like the Pilgrims on the Mayflower." It is a bold vision with multiple civil and commercial sector destinations.
The Federal Space Agency (ROSCOSMOS) is warning in a new report to President Putin today that Russian space defenses should be "immediately activated" and that the 5,000 new civil population bomb shelters completed this past year be "urgently stocked" after scientists confirmed that newly discovered Comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) is, indeed, a "planet killer" and has Mars "in its sights."According to this report, Mars-bound Comet Siding Spring was discovered by Rob McNaught on 3 January at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia after which all of the information relating to this threat was turned over to Project Wormwood run by IPS Radio and Space Services and established at Learmonth Solar Observatory to participate in the first two phases of Planetary Defence.IPS Radio and Space Services is the Australian Space Weather Agency, providing advice to customers in the Australasian area on the near-space environment, and the effects it has on communications, navigation, satellite operations, and other technological systems, whereas the majority of Project Wormwood activities are follow-up astrometry (position measurements) that are required to obtain precise orbits for space objects (asteroids/comets) that have previously been discovered by other programs.US scientists report that they expect Comet Siding Spring's closest approach to Mars to occur on 19 October 2014, at about 11:45AM. PDT (18:45 GTM), which their latest orbital plot places its closest approach to Mars a little farther out than previously estimated - at about 117,000 kilometers (73,000 miles) from the surface of the Red Planet.Richard Zurek, chief scientist for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's (JPL) Mars Program Office and project scientist for NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO), had previously warned that if Comet Siding Spring did impact Mars it "could be a huge, global event" and further warned "we will have to start thinking about what precautions we should take."Where US safety measures would include positioning their orbiters so that they are on the other side of Mars at the time of comet impact, this report continues, the "lethal potentiality" of Comet Siding Spring cannot be underestimated, specifically as its size, 50 km (31 miles) would result in an upper limit energy of impact that could reach 20 billion megatons and leave a crater measuring 44 km (338 miles) in diameter.The greatest danger to Earth should Comet Siding Spring impact Mars, ROSCOSMOS experts state in this report, would be the massive debris field ejected into space which would then plummet towards the Sun and eventually crossing our planets orbit.Spurred into action after the 500-kiloton explosion the Chelyabinsk Meteor above the Urals region on 15 February, Russia sped-up allocation of some 58 billion rubles (over 1.9 billion) for its planetary defense network, and the 5,000 new emergency bomb shelters built in Moscow between 2010-2012 to save people in case of potential attacks are further advised by ROSCOSMOS in this report to be used for planetary defense too.Curious to note about this report is a dissenting summary of its findings and recommendations by a minority of ROSCOSMOS experts who note that the as yet "unexplained orbital adjustments" being made by Comet C/2012 S1 (Comet ISON) as it nears its 1 October rendezvous with Mars, and its apparent "128 stand still" that has puzzled US scientists, means that Comet Siding Spring cannot be ruled out as an "intelligently directed space object" like Comet ISON is now appearing to be too.As we had previously noted in our report "Experts Puzzled After Great Comet Makes Mars Orbital "Adjustments," Comet ISON has made a number of "unexplained orbital adjustments" around the planet Mars seemingly to better align itself with the Red planets strange moon Phobos which Russian astrophysicist Iosif Samuilovich Shklovsky, in 1958, stated was a metallic hollow "craft," a finding supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) who last year reported:"One reason to suspect that Phobos is not a captured asteroid is its density. Analysis of Mars Express radio science data gave new information about the mass of Phobos based on the gravitational attraction it exerts on the spacecraft. The team concluded that Phobos is likely to contain large voids, which makes it less likely to be a captured asteroid. Its composition and structural strength seem to be inconsistent with the capture scenario."To what the truest reasons Comet ISON and Comet Siding Spring are "targeting" Mars nearly one year exactly apart in 2013 and 2014 are, basically, still unknown, but it cannot go unnoticed that Project Wormwood has put on its website this most cryptic of warnings:The third angel sounded his trumpet,and a great star, blazing like a torch,fell from the sky on a third of the riversand on the springs of water- the name of the star is Wormwood."Revelation 8:10-11Source: whatdoesitmeans
