These assumptions you're making about the space shuttle are just that--assumptions. You don't believe the space shuttle actual launches into space, but you want to believe that it can fly out over the ocean in a way that escapes everyone's notice, and manages to land on an aircraft carrier (fighter pilots or anyone in the military will tell you how hard it is to land a fighter on a carrier. But the space shuttle???) or a small island, and then of course has to be carried all the way back to land without being noticed. Sounds like a lot of trouble to be going through all these decades just to make us believe the world is round, and aliens are coming someday. It would have made more sense to stage an alien invasion many, many years ago rather than carry on such a deception for all these decades.
Did you ever hear of what happened when the radio aired a fictional show about an alien invasion. It wasn't as bad as the media portrayed it, but it was hysteria.
Satan needed many decades of deception and gradual implementation of the idea of aliens coming here from other planets. Now he has us all acclimated to the idea.
Tell me, if we ever did get technology that allowed us to travel light years away.... when we got there, would we wait around for 50 or 60 years?
I doubt it.... we would go there and make contact. Right away.
This whole idea of other civilizations observing us for decades... really? They would have written us off long ago and went to find some other places.
Sure! Can you explain then why he continues to spend so much money if all those launches to the space station are just pretend? Where are those supplies going? Where are the satellites going? The guy's company is only going to make money if he's actually accomplishing something productive.
Hmmmm, what would I do if I was getting millions of dollars of taxpayer money every month.... Hmmmmm.
The other companies, other than NASA are all in it for the same reason... money.
Would you dig a hole one week and fill it in the next.... if you were getting 100 dollars an hour to do it and all you had to do is keep quiet about what you were doing?
Are you serious. They have this down to an art. You put a few million$$ into a Rocket now and then.... the rest goes to other pockets..
Seriously, NASA's budget for next year is 19.1 billion dollars.
How much of that would you need to send some fire works up in the air in order to keep the sheep wandering around in the hills of naivety.
