  1. hmmm on NASA In Financial Trouble · · Score: 1

    Any reason why The American Space program hasn't gone the same way as the European?.. the UK have, for example, moved into the private sector to support it's self and then, only, in partnership with Germany and France space "companies".

    Does this debt reflect the world space sector as a whole or is it just NASA?

    I'd imainge that, like the UK, much of the moneyy comes from miltary projects based on the research done. Help me out here, I thought the US pushed some much money into defense, surely NASA must get a massive chunk of that fat pie.

    Interesting point... my only question is that wind carry debris such as sand would indeed wear a lot but I was under the impression that the errosion was different to that of rainfall.

    Also the surrounding land sites dated to the same time as the sphinx by Egyptologist do not show the same wear. I would claim that the outer casing of the great pyamids which stolen over time that would have demonstated that they too echo from the same period but all that is left is the soft sandstone blocks which have eroded by sand stroms much like everything else in Egypt giving the false opinion that they are all of the same age.

    Thanks for telling me, though interesting thought.:-)

    Okay...

    the whole point is that a the sphinx NOW doesn't point at the correct constellation but wind the clock back 15,000 years (I think) and it exactly matches the constellation of Leo. Demonstrating that the builds want to tell the date it was built using a clock that can't be destroy by time, namely the procession of the Earth orbit. The simplest measurement of great periods of time that a civilisation of astronomers had. We know this as they built sea-fairing boats that were capable of crossing all the oceans of the Earth without a compass.

    In addition to the fact that the sphinx(spelt wrong I'm sure) shows signs of water corrison in the middle of a desert also suggest a greater age. By extending this thought to the Giza landmakes, the theory arises that the three great pyramids that match the stars in Orian's belt pre-date the Egyptians and point back to antiquity.

    So you find a simplier explanation for a civilisation that just appears with no evidence of development, a declining skill of pyamind building that simply started with the great pyaminds and never managed to achieve anything close ever again, the fact that the great pyaminds are fundelmentally different in terms or scale, mathematics, quality and design and some landmarks so signs of water errosion dating back 15,000 years.

    Graham Hancock, is one of the foremost supporters of these theorys of landsites mapping the stars on Earth... apprently a message of forthcoming doom passed on by an ancient civilisation. The only trouble is he is very baised and omits a lot of evidence that weakens his arguemnt, for example the pyramids do line up with Leo and map Orien but only if you turnt he sky upside down. From an artitectural point of view the ancients had the knowledge to know how to represent these things properly if they wanted to do so. Can this wind theory not be accepted as another tool in the ancients arsenal of constructional technology? To be integerated with ramps and whips etc.
