The post British Astronaut Tim Peake Claims Moon Colony Is The Next Step appeared first on Kev Baker Show.
EDITORS NOTE: If you are a listener to my show, you will remember me saying at the start of the year that space would be a topic that I felt was going to feature highly on the agenda for the year, and I wasnt wrong!
Just last night on the show we had Olav Phillips join us to talk to us about the history of, and the evidence supporting, a secret space program, complete with moon bases, and even outposts on Mars.
Then today, during a first LIVE broadcast for a British astronaut, Tim Peake starts talking about a “moon colony” being the next logical step for space research.
I put it to Mr Peake that he obviously isn’t part of, or privy to the knowledge of, the secret space program that is so far advanced from that which we see at NASA, ESA etc, that it would be barely recognisable to us mere mortals.
What is encouraging about Mr Peake’s trip to the ISS is the surge in interest from the children in Britain when it comes to space. When I was growing up, I thought we would have taken our rightful place out in the stars, meeting our space brothers and sisters. Sadly, we are not, and ironically, at the time of me thinking it, the elites that run the show had already been there and done that.
To infinity and beyond? Just the truth would be nice thank you!
Join us tonight on The Kev Baker Show as we welcome Nano-Girl back to the panel to discuss this and other space related topics
Sky News reports….
In his first live television interview since blasting off from Earth, Major Peake answered questions submitted by Sky News viewers.
When asked about the possibility of establishing a permanent base on the Moon, Major Peake suggested it was a “great ambition” because it could be used to learn more about travelling to Mars.
“It enables us to investigate many of the challenges we’re going to face in terms of radiation exposure, (and) energy production,” he said.
“However the Moon in itself is a wonderful place to set up a location for research.
“There’s a huge amount that we’ve still yet to discover about the Moon. It call tell us a lot of things about the origins of our own planet.
“I hope that we see that as a next destination in itself, and also as a stepping stone to Mars in the future.”
He says astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) are working 12 to 14 hour days to carry out more than 250 experiments.
“I think personally the medical experiments are some of the most exciting and interesting ones that have the potential to benefit people back on planet Earth the most,” he said.
Some of that research is looking at how the ageing process affects bone density and muscle loss. It is also investigating why viruses are more virulent in a micro-gravity environment.
Here is last nights interview with Olav on the secret space programs….
Perhaps we should introduce this next presentation to newbie astronauts so they get a better understanding of what is really going on here, and off world!
