4. Apollo 18 and 19
Perhaps the strangest
anomaly of them all is the fact that, having spent so much time,
treasure, and thought on reaching the Moon, the last two Apollo
missions were suddenly and by any account mysteriously cancelled.
Altogether, there were supposed to have been ten lunar flights, and
the Apollo 18 and 19 rockets were “already paid for and the
astronauts trained and raring to go.”603 Why then were these
already-paid for missions scrubbed? The standard explanation has
always been that the final four Apollo missions were cancelled for
budgetary reasons. But this cannot be the explanation for canceling
Apollo 18 and 19 for these, as has been noted, were already paid
for. Some other reason must lie at the core of the mystery, but
whatever it is, the American government and NASA are not talking.
Perhaps, as some UFOlogists assert, we were “warned” not to return
by someone who did not like our presence there. Or perhaps, too, we
found whatever it was we were looking for.
