On May 26th, our own Don Ecker was seen on Hard Copy, a
|
|
television news program, discussing the recent visit to the
|
|
United States by Marina Popovitch, a Russian Colonel who has
|
|
knowledge of the ill-fated Phobos II space probe sent to Mars to
|
|
send back information on the red planet and one of its moons,
|
|
Phobos. According to Popovitch, the probe was destroyed by a long
|
|
cigar-shaped object as it approached the orbiting satellite.
|
|
Although this information is speculative and not confirmed, a
|
|
recent article appearing in a science publication did confirm
|
|
that a strange shadow was seen prior to Phobos II spinning out of
|
|
control and breaking contact with earth. Obviously there is a
|
|
lot yet to be learned about what really happened up there.
|
|
ParaNet has received information that Richard C. Hoagland,
|
|
the noted author of The Monuments of Mars - a book detailing a
|
|
possible surface anomaly on the planet, that NASA has covertly
|
|
launched the Mars observer spacecraft to speed to Mars to find
|
|
out what is going on up there. Below is a reprint of that
|
|
article. Our members are encouraged to provide any information
|
|
that would substantiate or disavow these claims.

U.S. MARS MISSION?
|
|
[Extracted from SpaceNews, 5-13-91, a publication normally
|
|
concerned with amateur radio topics.]
|
|
WWCR's radio broadcast "For The People" on 03-May-91 carried a
|
|
report by Richard C. Hoagland, who believes the United States
|
|
might have a spacecraft on its way to the planet Mars in order to
|
|
investigate the "Cydonia Message" first discovered in photos
|
|
taken by Viking 1 in 1976. Hoagland believes the Mars observer
|
|
spacecraft was deployed by the Space Shuttle "Atlantis" on
|
|
mission STS-38. According to official records, STS-38 carried an
|
|
AFP-658 satellite into orbit. An AFP-658 satellite measures 65
|
|
feet long and 15 feet in diameter. Hoagland believes this
|
|
payload was actually a booster rocket for the Mars observer
|
|
spacecraft which was later mated with the Mars observer
|
|
spacecraft on a following STS mission.
|
|
Observers reported seeing Atlantis and its satellite deployment
|
|
during mission STS-38. Some observers reported seeing both
|
|
objects illuminated by a reddish glow, which has yet to be
|
|
explained. On later orbits, the deployed satellite appeared to
|
|
have vanished.
|
|
Hoagland feels that if such a spacecraft were on its way to Mars,
|
|
it should be transmitting on X-band using pseudo-random noise
|
|
encoding. Hoagland is trying to get in touch with scientists who
|
|
have deep space X-band receive capabilities to see if signals can
|
|
be detected coming from Mars. The reception of intelligent radio
|
|
signals from Mars could indicate that either the US or the Soviet
|
|
Union have Mars observers sending valuable data back to
|
|
scientists on Earth.
|
|
Cydonia is a Martian desert located in the northern hemisphere of
|
|
Mars. It contains a mile-long, 1500 foot humanoid "face" and a
|
|
system of five-sided pyramids. Through images taken by Viking 1,
|
|
the "face" was found to contain such detail as an eye socket,
|
|
eyeball and pupil, nose and mouth. The facial proportions are
|
|
those of early man.
|
|
An investigation into Cydonia could help to confirm these
|
|
findings and shed light into their meaning.
