Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA, Enlarged and Revised Edition

The New York Times bestseller about the strange history of NASA and its cover-ups regarding its origins and extraterrestrial architecture found on the moon and Mars is even more interesting in its new edition.

Authors Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara include a new chapter about the discoveries made by ex-Nazi scientist and NASA stalwart Wernher von Braun regarding what he termed "alternate gravitational solutions," or the rewriting of Newtonian physics into hyperdimensional spheres.

A good example of subjective validation - confirmation bias

By Reb Johnson - June 19, 2011

This is an interesting book, a good read, but if you read Hoagland's book with a critical mind, which is better than reading it with a biased, gullible, or overly suggestible mind, when you come to the section on his lunar dome hypothesis, which is roughly thirty percent into the book, you should begin to shake your head.

Hoagland is convinced there are literally billions of "watch crystal" pieces of glass suspended over the moon on an ancient rebar structure, the remains of artificial domes that were inhabited by ancient intelligent beings. He has "validated and confirmed" for himself this hypothesis from tiny shards of visual evidence he finds scattered here and there in lunar images, such as AS17-134-20426 (Google "Project Apollo Image Gallery" and go the the Hasselbad magazine for Apollo 17). That image, for instance, shows a streak of light in the sky above the astronaut. For Hoagland, it's proof positive of his hypothesis, complete with exclamation points... read more

Most Intriguing

By Nick - March 31, 2012

While reading this imposing volume (almost 600 pages), I've changed my mind from 5 to 3 stars, depending on the section. On the whole, I will say that if you're interested in space, NASA, conspiracies, Mars, the Moon, this book is something you should absolutely take a look at.

Dar Mission covers a lot of ground: hyperdimensional physics, NASA origins (with more weird, but verified, stuff than you'd expect, including "Magicians", Nazis, and Freemasons), Hoagland's personal struggle with NASA and others, various astronauts' testimonies or odd behaviour, a lot of photographic evidence - which may or may not convince you - and JFK assassination material as well. A lot of ground to be sure.

All of this is highly interesting. However, there are some minor flaws I wish to point out. One thing, which I heard mentioned before, is the abuse of quotations marks and italics. It wasn't as omnipresent as I feared, but they're still pretty much on every page; it's as though... read more

Fantastic confirmation of ET Lunar landscape!

By Dalton Bagby "Dalton Bagby" - November 12, 2009

Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA, is one of the most astonishing and enlightening books I have ever read, and a great follow up to the earlier edition. Tremendously important for everyone! The ET lunar architecture depicted in the photos are astonishing! Thank you Hoagland and Bara for putting your "hand in the box" where others are too afraid to go. This book definitely calls into question the official versions of space exploration, given to us by force feeding from governments and academia. This book literally rewrites our relationship in the cosmos. A new science and NASA politics, tells us that for the last 50 years, space has been owned by government and not the people-few are allowed to participate. Hoagland and Bara are like science detectives wading through obstacles and explaining the science and what it means to us. In reading your book twice, I feel as I was really there as you tell the story. Thank you for allowing me to participate in this adventure!
