Story3
Near the end of the Apollo 15 mission, David Scott and fellow moonwalker James Irwin conducted a secret ceremony unsanctioned by NASA: they placed on the lunar soil a small tin figurine called The Fallen Astronaut, along with a plaque bearing a list of names. By telling the stories of those sixteen astronauts and cosmonauts who died in the quest to reach the moon between 1962 and 1972, this book enriches the saga of humankind's greatest scientific undertaking, Project Apollo, and conveys the human cost of the space race.

What if the gods of ancient myth… were never gods at all? Hosted by Ben Carter, Ancient Astronauts explores one of history’s most compelling mysteries — the theory that advanced extraterrestrial beings may have influenced the origins of human civilization. From ancient temples and sacred texts to unexplained artifacts and cosmic alignments, each episode uncovers the evidence that challenges what we think we know about our past. We don’t push beliefs.We examine the evidence — the carvings, the myths, the mathematics — and let you decide what’s possible. Because if the answers aren...

Space is the vast, infinite void beyond Earth's atmosphere, where gravity and cosmic structures form a complex tangle. Here, there are elements and phenomena including stars, planets, galaxies, nebulae and comets. This space has no atmosphere, so there is no air or pressure, and temperatures can be extreme - very cold in empty space and very hot near stars.Here are some of the stories that exist in outer space and were experienced by astronauts

The families behind America’s astronaut heroes are just like yours...sort of. This is the hilarious true story of one of those families. While many children grow up wanting to become an astronaut, Patrick Mullane grew up the child of one. In his memoir, The Father, Son, and Holy Shuttle: Growing Up an Astronaut’s Kid in the Glorious 80s, Mullane shares his hilarious coming-of-age story. It’s a story about his quirky and death-defying father, a mother with a secret, and a cast of characters from his extended family who showed their love for him in often bizarre ways.

In the most comprehensive biography on the subject yet, Gus Grissom: The Lost Astronaut offers a more personal side and fuller picture of Grissom’s life and character. Author Ray E. Boomhower explores Grissom’s life from his days as a child to his service as a combat pilot. He delves into the process by which NASA selected its original seven Mercury astronauts, the jostling for position to be the first American in space, and Grissom’s near-fatal Liberty Bell 7 flight that haunted his subsequent space career.

Dating to the fifth millennium BC, Sumerian civilization emerged seemingly out of nowhere, with no predecessor, in the land that is now southern Iraq. It has been known as Mesopotamia, Babylon, and Akkadia, but the Sumerians were the first culture to inhabit the land. We attribute to the Sumerians over 100 of the firsts needed for an advanced civilization.

What's it like to travel at more than 850 MPH, riding in a supersonic T-38 twin turbojet engine airplane? What happens when the space station toilet breaks? How do astronauts "take out the trash" on a spacewalk, tightly encapsulated in a space suit with just a few layers of fabric and Kevlar between them and the unforgiving vacuum of outer space?

Most exopolitics books focus on the human politics of dealing with extraterrestrials, but what about the exopolitics of the aliens themselves? We treat them as enigmas as if we didn't have a clue as to their motives, but the primary extraterrestrials who colonized our entire planet thousands of years ago left a rich history of their activities and motives. We interacted with these beings, and we knew them well. Have a look at the exopolitics from the other side.

Alabama Astronaut is a podcast featuring Alabama songwriter & artist Abe Partridge. Abe discovers a set of undocumented songs in the hills of the Appalachians, and believes they are undocumented because of the subject matter: lyrics that speak of the consumption of poison, and the handling of venomous snakes. These are the songs of the serpent handlers. To capture their music, Abe must first capture the hearts and the minds of the people who wrote it...and in the process, they capture his.

Humans living in a dark, flooded world without sunlight - that’s what the gods of the Incas found upon their arrival. They terraformed waterlogged Earth to make it habitable again and built golden cities along the western half of South America connected by 25,000 miles of Inca road. Inca legends match the biblical Genesis but with incredible detail that tells a much fuller story. Creation did not involve making the sun and moon, and Earth out of nothing - it reworked what was already here.
