Indeed the very
physics of lens dynamics and depth of field apparently disappears
when the astronauts shoot photographs. (Just for the record the cameras
were not altered at all by Hasselblad or anyone else).
As a professional
photographer and a filmmaker I have wrestled with depth of field
problems for over 40 years. I am surprised that no other photographer
has noticed the lack of depth of field problems encountered by the
astronaut-photographers. In reality the lack of depth of field problems
is a nail in the coffin of the Apollo program.
6). GLASS CITIES
OR FRONT SCREEN PROJECTION?
Former NASA consultant
Richard Hoagland has examined many of the photos of the Apollo landings
and, although he has never noticed the impossible depth of field,
he has found other strange anomalies in the NASA material.
Examining the photographic
record of the Apollo missions, and processing Apollo images through
various graphics programs, Hoagland has discovered 'geometries' in
the skies surrounding the astronauts on the moon. He postulates that
these geometries are evidence of some kind of gigantic glass-like
structures behind, above and surrounding the astronauts as they stand
on the lunar surface. Hoagland even shows us that there are rainbow
lights reflecting in the sky high above the astronauts.
Many people, especially
in NASA, have attacked Hoagland for these interpretations. Yet, no
matter how much they attack Hoagland, they can never explain what
it is that he is finding on these Apollo images. In the same way
that evidence in the JFK assassination and the high weirdness around
911 is never examined and explained by the anti-conspiracy theorists,
so too, is Hoagland's evidence just simply ignored by the critics.
Instead they have
created an ad hominum attack machine that criticizes Hoagland - the
man - while deftly ignoring his intriguing evidence.
His critics are
either wrong or they know what is really happening.
I have known Richard
Hoagland for a long time. I was with him during his initial discoveries
of artifacts on the lunar surface. I have seen photographic evidence
that there are very strange things on the surface of the moon. I
am not here to start an argument with Mr. Hoagland or anyone else.
I, like Hoagland,
believe that NASA has actually gone to the moon. I believe that moon
rocks were taken from the surface of the moon. I believe that there
is strong evidence of some kind of past intelligent activity on surface
of the moon. But I do not believe that standard rocket technology
is what got mankind from the Earth to the surface of the Moon.
I am not trying
to debunk Hoagland's discoveries. All I am trying to do, with the
following evidence, is show that the Apollo landings were a hoax.
And that Stanley Kubrick, using the Front Screen Projection system,
directed them.
Again I want to
make sure that I am understood here. I am not saying that there are
not strange structures on the moon. What I am saying is that the
structures and geometries that Richard Hoagland is seeing in the
photographs taken on the lunar surface are not what he thinks they
are.
Here are a few
of Hoagland's images. He believes that these images are proof that
NASA is hiding evidence of alien cities.
This is a processed
photograph of astronaut Ed Mitchell on the surface of the moon taken
during the Apollo 14 mission. Of course all of the stuff in the sky,
as seen in this processed Apollo image from Hoagland, is impossible
if it was taken on the lunar surface. There is no atmosphere on the
moon. Therefore there can be nothing in the sky. Yet when Hoagland
processed much of the Apollo lunar surface imagery he discovered,
over and over again, all of this 'crud' in the sky above the astronauts.
No one in NASA
even attempts to answer Hoagland, or anyone else, about the strange
stuff that he, and others, is finding in the skies above the astronauts.
Richard Hoagland
theorizes that this is photographic evidence of huge, abandoned 'glass
cities' on the surface of the moon. He says that what we are seeing
in the above processed image is huge glass towers that only show
up on the images after they have been processed through graphics
software.
Here are some other
of Hoagland's images:
Hoagland has taken
the image on the left and processed it in a manner very similar to
how I processed the above images from 2001: A Space Odyssey. By increasing
the gamma and the contrast of the image he arrived at the picture
on the right.
Hoagland interprets
the image on the right as proof of giant glass structures behind
the astronaut and, for that matter, all over the surface of the moon.
What Hoagland is
really seeing, though, is the imperfections in the background Scotchlite
screen that Kubrick used to create the lunar backgrounds. These imperfections
can also be found in the desert backgrounds in the ape scenes in
2001: A Space Odyssey (see above).
What Hoagland,
and the above image reveals, is the texture and geometry of the Scotchlite
screen.
Because of the
vastness of the set, because he needed it to look like it was NOT
DONE ON A SOUNDSTAGE, Kubrick had to sew several Scotchlite screens
together. It was only when he had created a large enough Scotchlite
screen was he then was able to get a large enough background image
that would look expansive enough to appear to be the surface of the
moon or a desert four million years ago.
The same process
that created the desert backgrounds in 2001 is the same process that
created the lunar mountains backgrounds for the Apollo missions.
This is picture
from Hoagland's research.
The processed image
reveals a rainbow-like reflecting light high above the astronauts
in the sky on the moon. Hoagland theorizes that this is a light reflecting
off of one of the giant glass towers standing right behind the astronaut.
What this is really
is a light reflecting off of one of the tiny glass beads of the Scotchlite
screen. For some reason that particular glass bead was slightly off
from its 90-degree angle and so it caught the projector light and
reflected it back to the camera.
Again a scene from
2001: A Space Odyssey (processed):
And one of Hoagland's
processed Apollo shots:
It is pretty clear
from the two images above that Hoagland's 'geometries' are really
the patterns and flaws and stitches in the Scotchlite screen.
Maybe this is why
NASA suddenly lost all of its lunar images. Maybe this is why NASA
just admitted that they 'accidentally' taped over the original high-resolution
tape of Apollo 11. Maybe this is why Neil Armstrong, 'the first man
to walk on the moon', doesn't want to participate in the 40 th anniversary
parties.
Maybe this is why
we have never gone back to the moon.
7). INCONSISTANT
SHADOWS
Many researchers
have pointed out the different angles of light on the surface of
the moon. Because there is only one light source (the sun) how can
there be multiple light angles on the moon such as this?: 
How can the astronaut's
two shadows not be consistent with each other? If they were actually
standing in the bright light of the sun, their two shadows should
be at the same exact angle. Yet they are not. Why? Because Kubrick
used studio lighting!
But why would Kubrick
make a mistake like the inconsistent shadows in the above image?
A great filmmaker like Kubrick must have realized that this was a
huge mistake.
My answer is that
Kubrick did this on purpose.
He left behind
telltale evidence for his work. And he did this on purpose. Not just
in the above shot but actually all over the Apollo photographic record.
In my forthcoming
documentary on the NASA Apollo fakery titled "Kubrick's Odyssey",
I will reveal much more photographic evidence than I possibly can
in this short essay.
One thing that
I am sure is that some part of Stanley Kubrick wanted everyone to
know what he had done. And that is why he left behind clues that
would explain who did it and how.
8). LAST NOTES
Those of you who
are familiar with my essay, written in 1999, on 2001: A Space Odyssey
called Alchemical Kubrick (see http://www.jayweidner.com/kubrick.htm)
already know that I believe that 2001 A Space Odyssey is the greatest
esoteric film of all time.
For the first time
anywhere, in that essay, I show how Kubrick designed the black monolith
to be exactly the same size as the screen on which 2001 was projected.
The monolith and the screen are the same thing. The monolith is the
screen and the screen is the monolith. It is truly one of the greatest
discoveries in cinema history.
When one realizes
that Kubrick also used the Front Screen Projection system - not only
for the ape scenes in 2001 - but also the fake the moon landings
- we can see a double, or even possibly a triple meaning, inside
the idea that the screen is the monolith and the monolith is the
screen.
If the monolith
is that device that enlightens humanity then the Front Screen Projection
system, and it's unmistakable fingerprints, is the device that enlightens
humanity as to how the Apollo landings were faked.
But also we can
see that Kubrick used the faking of the Apollo moon missions as an
opportunity to make one great film.
Because he had
negotiated a deal where no one would be given oversight on the film,
Kubrick was allowed to make whatever movie he desired. Knowing that
no one would object to his anti-Hollywood methods, he created the
first abstract feature film, the first intellectual movie and the
greatest esoteric work of art in the 20 th century.
The President of
MGM, at the time in 1968, publicly stated, that he never even saw
a rough cut of 2001: A Space Odyssey during the entire four years
of production. Does that sound like the manner in which a head of
a major studio would act? 2001: A Space Odyssey was one of the most
expensive films ever made at that time. Does it even seem remotely
possible that no one at MGM even cared to see the continuous progress
of the film?
No way.
I am sure that
2001: A Space Odyssey is the only film in MGM history where the executives
who funded the movie never scrutinized the film.
Why weren't they
more interested in this very expensive endeavor?
Because MGM
did not fund 2001, the US Government did.
Outside of the
Front Screen Projection evidence, which I believe nails the fraud
of the Apollo landings; there is other circumstantial evidence that
forces the conclusion even more in the direction of Kubrick directing
the entire Apollo missions.
For instance:
In the original
release of 2001 there were many credits thanking NASA and many of
the aerospace companies that worked with NASA on the moon landings.
These credits have since been removed from all subsequent releases
of 2001. But for those of us old enough to remember, in the original
credits, Kubrick thanks a vast array of military and space corporations
for their help in the production.
As these are the
same corporations that supposedly helped NASA get the astronauts
to the moon - one has to wonder - what kind of help did they gave
Stanley? And for what price?
In the film 'Wag
the Dog' Dustin Hoffman plays a movie producer hired by the CIA to
'fake an event'. His name in the movie is Stanley. In that movie
'Stanley' mysteriously dies after telling everyone that he wants
to take credit for the 'event' that he helped fake.
Stanley Kubrick
died soon after showing Eyes Wide Shut to the executives at Warner
Brothers. It is rumored that they were very upset concerning that
film. They wanted Kubrick to re-edit the film but he refused. I personally
was in France when Stanley died and I saw, on French television,
outtakes from the forthcoming Eyes Wide Shut. I saw outtakes from
several scenes that were never in the finished film.
Warner Brothers
has even come out and admitted that they re-edited the film. To this
day they refuse to release a DVD of Stanley Kubrick's cut. Not only
is this a direct violation of the agreement that Kubrick had with
Warner Brothers but also it means that we will probably never see
the un-edited version of this film.
One has to wonder
what was cut out?
And finally:
Eyes Wide Shut
was released on July 16 th 1999.
Stanley Kubrick
insisted in his contract that this be the date of the release.
July 16 th 1999
is exactly 30 years to the day that Apollo 11 was launched.
Happy Fortieth
Anniversary Stanley. Now you can rest in peace.
