Operation Windmill , 3rd January 1948 , Antarctica

List members , just remember this date & location - 3rd January 1948 , Operation Windmill , Antarctica.
This was the day on which "Station 211" , the secret Nazi base was found in an ABANDONED state by the US Navy...they had by then escaped to Walhalla base on the moon , under the lead of General Hans Kammler , known for the "Bifrost Protocol" . KGB too had documented this whole story...please read all 9 pages in the enclosed article - I have just copy pasted page 1 . This article has a goldmine of authentic , thoroughly researched chronological information , even down to the specific dates of events...it is NOT one of those cheap conspiracy websites :))

**At first , the above may sound bizarre and beyond far-fetched , but if you go deep into the facts of this story , it is the only logical conclusion you can draw . After the debacle of Operation High Jump in Feb. 1947 , the next mission to Antarctica , within a year - in 1948 , by the US Navy was codenamed Operation Windmill , which concluded on 16th Feb. , 1948 :-

Nazi Moonbase

Introduction

As 1944 began, the writing was on the wall for Nazi Germany. In the east, Soviet forces were advancing steadily after the disasters of Stalingrad and Kursk. To the south, fighting in Italy continued to drain men and materiel. In the west, American bombers pounded German industry and British night raids set cities ablaze as the Atlantic Wall defenses braced for an inevitable invasion.
While Hitler continued to spout rhetoric and exhort his troops to fight for every inch of land, other Nazi commanders made their own plans for the survival of the Third Reich. Jet aircraft, ballistic missiles, and other Wunderwaffen (Wonder Weapons) could delay the end, but not prevent it. Research continued at a frantic pace, but Germany’s atomic bomb program had yet to produce a new weapon and the projected Amerikabomber would be of little value without it. It was time to plan for the survival of the Reich after the fall of Germany.
As Berlin fell and many SS and Nazi Party leaders made their way to Argentina via the “rat lines” of the ODESSA network, the Nazi occult organization known as the Black Sun put a larger operation into place. Key personnel were smuggled out of Germany to a secret base in the Antarctic, codenamed Neuschwabenland. Commanded by SS-ObergruppenfĂŒhrer Hans Kammler, this facility continued work to develop advanced weapons and other technologies until it was discovered by the Americans in 1947. Although the US forces were driven off, Kammler knew that it was only a matter of time before they returned in greater strength. He gave the order to evacuate Neuschwabenland to an even more remote location: the surface of the Moon.
This book tells the story of the Nazi moonbase codenamed Walhalla and the project that created it, from the beginning of Nazi space research to the present day. The base is described in detail, along with the research projects that were transferred there from Earth. Also covered is the profound but largely undocumented effect that the existence of the Walhalla base has had on postwar history. From US and Soviet efforts to capture Nazi scientists, through the Cold War and the Space Race, to the abandonment of the Apollo project and the present-day unmanned exploration of the Solar System, the Walhalla base and the advanced technology it contains cast a huge shadow even today.

The Bifrost Protocol

The Nazi leadership knew by 1942 that Wunderwaffen offered Germany’s only chance of winning the war. The Blitzkrieg had stalled, the Allies were preparing to fight back, and Germany had neither the men nor the resources to fight a protracted war.
Operation Sea Lion, the planned invasion of Britain, had been postponed indefinitely in September 1940, and the Luftwaffe’s eight-month Blitz of late 1940 and early 1941 had failed to put Britain out of the war as Hitler had intended. The Royal Air Force continued to bomb German industrial targets, and the United States entered the war in December, raising the specter of countless American troops invading the Continent from southern England and turning the tide of the war, just as they had broken the stalemate of World War I in 1917.
Things were no better on the Eastern Front. Despite Hitler’s rhetoric, Operation Barbarossa had failed to bring about the collapse of the Soviet Union. German forces had been thrown back 200 miles from the gates of Moscow, and the Red Army was rebuilding in the east. Unless a decisive blow could be struck, it was only a matter of time before Germany was crushed between the Western Allies and the Soviet Union.
The development of Wunderwaffen was given the highest priority. Several jet aircraft projects were already under way, including the Messerschmitt Me 262 fighter and the Arado Ar 234 bomber, but the Reich’s greatest need would be for long-range weapons that could be launched from Europe to destroy targets as far away as North America and Siberia.
The first fruits of the Wunderwaffen initiative were the V-1 cruise missile and the V-2 ballistic missile, which entered service in June and September 1944 respectively. Resources were poured into the development of an atomic bomb: the Amerikabomber project and the A-9 rocket aimed to provide intercontinental-range delivery systems for nuclear warheads.
Other long-range bombardment initiatives sound like science fiction. The Oberth Sonnengewehr (Sun Gun) was a huge orbiting mirror designed to incinerate cities like ants under a magnifying glass. The V-3 supergun had a barrel 430 feet long and could fire a 150mm shell more than 100 miles.
As the tide of war turned against Germany, work on all these projects was hampered by Allied air raids and increasing material shortages. By March of 1945, even the most ardent Nazis knew Germany was doomed — but some dared to think beyond the defeat of Germany and make plans for the Reich to fight on and win eventual victory.

The Order of the Black Sun

Founded as an elite within an elite, the Order of the Black Sun had its origins at Heinrich Himmler’s SS academy at Wewelsburg Castle in Westphalia. It took its name from a symbol on the floor of the ObergruppenfĂŒhrersaal, or Generals’ Hall, which can still be seen there.
The symbol of the Black Sun was based on the design of brooches worn by the Germanic Allemani people during the post-Roman period. It resembles a sun emitting twelve jagged rays, and has been described as a triple swastika representing the sun at sunrise, noon, and sunset.
Its origins in Nazi symbolism date back to the writings of Helena Blavatsky and Karl-Maria Willigut, two of several mystical writers of the 19th century who inspired various facets of Nazi occultism. More on this subject can be found in Kenneth Hite’s The Nazi Occult, also in this series. The Black Sun represented a source of energy allegedly known to the ancient Aryans, which would shine over the rise of the New World Order.

Wewelsburg

In 1934, Heinrich Himmler rented Wewelsburg Castle from the local government of Westphalia for 100 years at the token rent of one mark per year, and set about refurbishing it as an SS academy and research institute. While it is true that certain chambers were renamed after characters from the Grail Romances, claims that Himmler intended Wewelsburg to be the new Grail Castle are exaggerated. However, he did envisage it as the functional and spiritual center of his new religion.
Himmler had long despised Christianity for its Jewish roots, and was in the process of formulating a Germanic faith for the Aryan race. Hitler expressed his opposition to the idea of völkisch religion and occultism as a part of National Socialism, both in Mein Kampf and in public speeches, but Himmler was determined that the SS — his state within a state — should have an ideology of its own, based on solid Germanic roots. The new religion would ensure that members of the SS would never feel torn between the principles of Christianity and Nazism.
Among its other functions, Wewelsburg was to be the center of this religion. After 1941, it was often referred to in documents as “the center of the world.” While Hitler and his architect Albert Speer planned a new world capital in Berlin, Himmler planned Wewelsburg as a spiritual and intellectual capital.

The Rise of the Order

It was against this background that the Order of the Black Sun came together. Its members sought to combine science, politics, and mysticism into a single driving force that would underpin the new world order, and place themselves — as the masters of this new thinking — in effective control of the world.
Although Himmler maintained a mask of servility — Hitler nicknamed him der treue Heinrich,“loyal Heinrich” — by 1941 his ambition to succeed Hitler as FĂŒhrer, and their differences over völkisch mysticism, led him to keep much of Wewelsburg’s work secret. This work included the development of ideas and technologies that had originated within the Thule Society (Thule Gesellschaft) and the Vril Society (Vril Gesellschaft). The Thule Society had been disbanded on Hitler’s orders in 1935, along with the Freemasons and other organizations, while the Vril Society was on the brink of a schism: its leading “Vril medium,” a woman known to history only as Sigrun, insisted that its knowledge — especially the propulsion system used in the Vril series of saucer craft — should be used only for peaceful purposes. More information on both these societies will be found in the next chapter.
Even as Himmler began to distance Wewelsburg from Hitler, though, the Order began to distance itself from Himmler. Many leading members of the Order felt that Himmler’s emphasis on the development of his Aryan religion was a distraction from the more urgent goal of developing the superscience, and superweapons, that would enable Germany to win the war; as the tide of the war began to turn, their frustration drove them to keep more and more from their former leader.
With Britain undefeated, the Soviet Union on the counterattack, and the United States poised to launch a European front, the Order looked for a way to save Germany — or if this was impossible, to ensure the survival of their work and plan for the creation of a new Aryan state. The man they chose to lead this effort was a rising SS star named Hans Kammler.

Hans Kammler

Hans Kammler was born in Stettin (now Szczecin, Poland) on August 26, 1901. At that time, Stettin was part of the German Reich ruled by Kaiser Wilhelm II. After World War I, he studied civil engineering in Danzig (now Gdansk) and Munich and was a member of the Rossbach Freikorps, a far-right paramilitary group whose members included a young Rudolf Hess. Kammler joined the Nazi Party in 1931 and the SS in 1933.
Kammler held various administrative posts in the Nazi government, starting as head of the building department in the Air Ministry (Reichsluftfahrtministerium). He joined the Waffen-SS in June 1941, and became Oswald Pohl’s deputy at the SS Main Economic and Administrative Department (SS-Wirtschafts-Verwaltungshauptamt), whose duties included oversight of the concentration camp system.

Kammler was an ardent Nazi with a gift for organization which led him to the command of all Wunderwaffen production. (Artwork Hauke Kock)

In 1942, Pohl assigned Kammler to construct facilities for various advanced weapons projects, including the Me 262 jet fighter and the V-2 ballistic missile. He rose quickly, largely thanks to his notorious expedient of using concentration camp prisoners as a source of slave labor. Hitler placed him in charge of all V-2 production, as well as transferring the responsibility for jet aircraft production from Hermann Goering to Kammler. On March 1, 1945, Kammler was promoted to the rank of ObergruppenfĂŒhrer, making him answerable only to SS chief Heinrich Himmler. A few weeks later, all special weapons development and manufacturing projects were absorbed into Kammler’s SS Development Agency IV (SSEntwicklungstelle IV, known as SS E-IV). Only Wernher von Braun’s PeenemĂŒnde rocket group remained outside Kammler’s control, and this only because of von Braun’s obstinate refusal to acknowledge Kammler’s authority. The conflict between Kammler and von Braun began as a simple clash of personalities, but came to have a profound effect on the history of manned space flight.
No one else in the Third Reich had such a comprehensive understanding of the new technologies being developed. As Germany crumbled, Kammler assembled a hand-picked team of scientists and devised a daring plan — to build a base on the Moon, bombard the Allied homelands with impunity, and return to Earth victorious once they had collapsed.
Officially, Hans Kammler committed suicide in May 1945, but the credibility of the supposed eyewitnesses has been challenged multiple times. The US Army Counterintelligence Corps (CIC) launched an unsuccessful hunt for him later in May. One former Office of Strategic Services agent claimed to have brought him to the United States, but this claim was never confirmed. By 1949, Kammler’s name simply vanishes from intelligence documents, without any explanation.

This memo ordering the destruction of a “V-1 device” (possibly a prototype of some kind rather than a V-1 flying bomb) is dated April 23, 1945 and bears Kammler’s signature. It is the last trace of Kammler in Europe. (PD)
Kammler’s Plan

Kammler named his plan Protokoll Bifrost (The Bifrost Protocol) after the rainbow bridge of Norse myth that linked the mortal world of Midgard to the divine realm of Asgard. Simply put, it was a three-point plan to ensure Nazi survival — and eventual victory — after the fall of Germany. Its objectives were as follows:
Escape
The first priority was to ensure that all the necessary technology, personnel, and resources were placed out of the Allies’ reach. In Kammler’s original documents, dated to early 1944, this phase of the operation was codenamed WalkĂŒre (Valkyrie), but it was renamed Einherjar after July 20, 1944, when a group of disaffected officers launched a failed attempt to assassinate Hitler under the codename WalkĂŒre.
In Norse myth, the einherjar were the warriors found worthy of admission to Valhalla. This was a perfect metaphor for Kammler’s careful selection of projects and personnel, but it turned out to be too perfect. By now, Alan Turing’s Bombe computer at Bletchley Park had cracked the German Enigma code, and MI6 quickly deduced that signal decrypts featuring the codename Einherjar referred to some Nazi effort to evacuate key personnel and technology from Germany. This intelligence resulted in the British launching Operation Surgeon and the Americans launching Operation Paperclip, which were intended to intercept and retrieve Nazi scientists and exploit their knowledge.

SURGEON AND PAPERCLIP

In the months either side of the war’s end in May 1945, Allied intelligence officers made a concerted effort to recover and turn German personnel who had been employed on advanced technology. Operation Surgeon was run by British Intelligence and Operation Paperclip by the US Office of Strategic Services. The latter’s most notable success was the recruitment of Wernher von Braun and others of his PeenemĂŒnde rocket research group, who went on to play key roles in the American space program.
The stated purpose of both operations was to ensure that German advanced technology stayed out of Soviet hands: with the end of the war in sight, it was clear that the postwar world would be dominated by the rivalry between the capitalist West and the communist East.
The second, and perhaps more important, goal of these operations was known only to a few individuals in the very highest intelligence circles. From what Western intelligence agents had been able to discover about the Bifrost Protocol, it was clear that some Nazis had escaped and intended to fight on, using what MI6 chief Sir Stewart Menzies called “a continuation of the V-weapon offensive, conducted from some remote spot and using weapons of extremely long range with the goal of destroying the major cities of every Allied nation.” The highest priority was given to uncovering more information about this planned offensive, and the recovery of any technology that could help thwart it.

Bombardment

Once established on the Moon (codenamed Walhalla), the second phase of the Bifrost Protocol would begin. This phase, codenamed Mjölnir after Thor’s mighty hammer, would see the development of Wunderwaffen capable of bombarding Earth and wiping out entire cities. This armament would be used to destroy the major cities belonging to the principal Allied powers — the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, and France — and leave them with neither the population nor the industrial capacity to resist the third phase of the operation.
Kammler acknowledged that this would be the most critical phase of the Bifrost Protocol. In particular, he was aware that the Walhalla base would be living on borrowed time. Once the Allies became aware of the Walhalla base’s existence, they would surely devote all their vast scientific and manufacturing resources to the task of developing weapons that could reach it and destroy it. Mjölnir would have to achieve its objectives before they could do so.
Return
The final phase of the Bifrost Protocol was codenamed Gungnir after Odin’s deadly spear. With the Allied powers on their knees, the personnel of Walhalla would return to Earth as conquerors, raise up the fallen German nation, and establish an eternal Fourth Reich built upon the principles of the Third.

The Haunebu IV saucer received its final fitting-out at the Neuschwabenland base. Barely airworthy in mid-1945, it managed to evade the Allied advance and limp to Antarctica. This giant craft was to form the core of the moonbase.
Antarctica

By March 1945, the Western Allies had crossed the Rhine and the Red Army was pushing westward from Vienna. Kammler knew that the first phase of the Bifrost Protocol had to be put into effect soon, but there was a problem: the massive Haunebu IV saucer, whose carrying capacity was vital to the evacuation plan, was not yet spaceworthy. With his characteristic efficiency, however, Kammler had foreseen this possibility and formulated a contingency plan.
The German Antarctic Expedition of 1938 had laid claim to a vast amount of territory on the continent of Antarctica, naming the territory Neuschwabenland (New Suebia) after one of Germany’s ancient duchies. Although the Allies had ignored the Neuschwabenland territory, Kammler had not. In the closing months of the war, Kammler used the Haunebu craft, along with a fleet of U-boats, to move SS E-IV assets to Neuschwabenland.
The Haunebu IV limped out of Prague ahead of the Soviet advance, reaching Antarctica a few hours later after a flight beset with minor technical problems. When Kammler made the decision to take off, chief saucer engineer Klaus Habermohl was in the city scrounging for materials: he was captured by the Red Army on May 11, showing just how close the Russians came to capturing the craft itself and thwarting Kammler’s whole plan.
Through 1946, Kammler and his remaining followers worked to develop the Antarctic base into a working development and manufacturing facility which would enable them to continue the war. While the Haunebu IV completed its fitting-out, work continued on various other advanced weapons projects as materials and facilities permitted.

Folks , for those interested - the Aristarchus Crater on the NorthWestern side of the Moon's Near Side (not the dark side) , is known for it's unusual brightness , flashing lights and many other anomalies...you may be able to validate the existence of the Walhalla base (built by Nazis) on the moon , yourself . Over the last 74 years , they have probably expanded their facilities underground , to a large extent .

As early as 1959 , there was planning activity going on in the US military about Lunar Surface Combat...but with whom ???? Who was present on the moon at that time that needed to be attacked ?? Hmm ! At the present time , there is now even a drone to attack the Lunar surface - the MQ-14 Lunar Hawk , in service .

Lunar surface combat

BY SND_ADMIN ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2020DEFENCE & SPACE INDUSTRY

By Dr. Chris Flaherty

INTRODUCTION

Potential for Lunar surface combat was raised by a U.S. Army proposal to set up a manned permanent Lunar Base (U.S. Army, 1959); and a U.S. Airforce proposal to establish a Lunar Expedition Facility (U.S. Airforce, 1961). A U.S. Army Lunar surface weapons study (U.S. Army, 1965), gave greater definition to the notion of Lunar surface combat, and how this might be conducted. Space exploration technology has vastly developed over the last half-century; however, these early papers enunciated key tactical concepts that remain relevant. The most significant of which was the radical redefinition of the enduring features of terrestrial tactics, than that expected would operate on the Lunar surface. The concept of distance, weapons effect and range, and the use of terrain were all envisaged to radically change. New weapons were envisaged, designed to fit new parameters based on the moon’s surface conditions. Fundamentally, it was also understood, that the approach to combat and its operations on the Lunar surface would change according to a two-stage concept development. An initial phase, would be based on known science, developed before arrival on the Moon. A further stage based on discoveries, and technological advancements made during the time spent fighting and operating on the Lunar surface, would lead to bespoke weapons and combat approaches. It is suggested that this two-stage model for military operations, is likely a norm underlaying a common operating doctrine for future Human military operations on other worlds, such as Mars, Jupiter’s Galilean moons (Europa), and Saturn’s moons – Titan, and Enceladus.

FUNDAMENTAL REDEFINITION OF THE ENDURING FEATURES OF TACTICS

“FIGURE 1: The Lunar Surface Horizon in Relation to Maximum Line of Sight, Maximum Impact Point of a Horizontal Fired Projectile, Maximum Hight Above the Moon’s Surface, and Maximum Over the Horizon Range from the Position of a Lunar Surface Combatant.”

All tactics are based on fundamentally enduring features that have not altered, namely: human speed, human perception of terrain, ballistics, range, and human vision. The three-dimensional engagement space has only recently undergone a more radical transformation with its augmentation using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) giving human operators greater capacity for bi-focal, and multi-focal views of the land and air space they are operating in (Flaherty, 2018).

The 1965 U.S. Army study argued transition to the lunar surface would require a complete redefinition of the enduring features of tactics:

“It should be kept in mind 
 that penetration and lethality on the moon are almost synonymous since penetration of a pressurized vessel on the moon may be tantamount to defeating it.” (U.S. Army, 1965)

Equivalence between penetration and lethality as a new tactical concept applied to pressurized structures that housed humans in the Lunar Base, gave rise to the thinking the base would be better protected from attack, or a meteor strike if buried underground (U.S. Army, 1959; U.S. Airforce, 1961). Security was identified as the main reason for underground construction. While not directly alluded, burying the base would add to its camouflaging, as it had been noted that it was feasible for an over the horizon attack to be made from the surface from some 320 miles: 514.9 kilometres away (see FIGURE 1).

The 1965 U.S. Army study argued that the, “approach 
 [to]
 the problem of space weaponry should recognize the differences in 
 [Lunar] 
 conditions” (U.S. Army, 1965). The major tactics change posed by Lunar conditions, was the curvature of the Moon (its mean radius 1080 miles: 1,737.1 kilometres), meant a human with an approximate height of six feet: 185 centimetres, was likely to have an unrestricted maximum line of sight some 8,448 feet: 2,574.9 meters away (see FIGURE 1). It was further calculated that a Lunar surface weapon (see below), would have the capability to fire a projectile horizontally, reaching a maximum Point of Impact: Impact Point (see FIGURE 1), some 8,190 feet: 2,500 meters away (U.S. Army, 1965). In was concluded, that as a result of the high visibility: “A complex set of sights does not therefore appear to be required.” (U.S. Army, 1965) High visibility, and long-range effective weaponry would create wide, long-range effective killing zones, that would force both offensive and defensive forces into highly distributed modes of operation dependent on stealth and camouflage in order to escape detection and destruction.

Another major tactics change posed by Lunar conditions, was the slower rotation of the Moon, its ‘day’ relatively speaking, or the area under light at a given point lasts approximately two weeks from beginning to end, followed by approximately two weeks of darkness, as well periods where there is illumination from Earth-Light. The radical nature of two-weeks of light, followed by two-weeks of darkness could be used as an opportunity to position approaching forces, awaiting the light-time window to launch attacks.

LUNAR SURFACE WEAPON’S OPTIONS

The 1965 U.S. Army study identified several plausible hand-held presumably smoothbore weapons options, with a much reduced recoil (equivalent to the Moon’s gravitational field which is notionally ⅙th that of the Earth). A proposed short single barrel, “spin stabilized micro gun” (U.S. Army, 1965), worked on the Gyrojet projectile principle: firing by electrical ignition a small bullet round packed with its own propellent, that acted like a micro-rocket. It was assumed the Gyrojet projectile firing micro gun would have had sufficient muzzle velocity (calculated to be 3,000 feet per second), allowing a projectile fired from the horizontal, reaching its full-distance Impact Point (see FIGURE 1), some 8,190 feet: 2,500 meters away. It was further calculated that the same weapon fired at an angle of 45 degrees, with the lunar surface, was understood to greatly increase the maximum range of a projected object (fired at a velocity of 3,000 feet per second), to about 320 miles: 514.9 kilometres, with its maximum ordinate approximately 80 miles: 128.7 kilometres, above the surface (U.S. Army, 1965; see FIGURE 1). A multi-barrelled version called a ‘sausage’ was also envisaged that fired by electrical ignition, a sabot capped flechette with its own propellent case (U.S. Army, 1965). This weapon, like the Gyrojet projectile firing micro gun would have had a muzzle velocity calculated to be 3,000 feet per second, giving it the same range capabilities.

The tactical implications of having weapons available to a combatant with capacity for direct-line of sight fire, and for indirect-fire at more distant targets, such as the opposing combatant’s Lunar Base, would likely have created a key operational concept, based on launching operations well-away from the actual position of the Lunar Base, in order to draw-away the potential for attack. The base itself buried, and camouflaged, may have likely led to employment of other traditional deception techniques, such as the development of several dummy-bases, as a means to protect the real base from damage or destruction which if lost could potentially kill the entire base force.

MID-RANGE WEAPONS

Mid-range weapons were envisaged, by the 1965 U.S. Army study, namely smoothbore pistols. One used a compressed spring to propel a spherical projectile, along with a ‘gas cartridge gun’, that relied on compressed gas to fire spherical projectiles. It was envisaged these guns had a muzzle velocity of 1,000 to 1,600 feet per second, giving a plausible range of somewhere in the vicinity of 2,624 feet: 800 meters. The main problem with Lunar surface weapons, these were either limited to fire their pre-loaded barrels, or were limited by magazine capacity. It appears, that all the proposed weapons designs were aimed at the need to keep, “weapon weight at a minimum.” (U.S. Army, 1965) It appears combatants were intended to carry multiple weapons at a time, suggesting that a key tactic would be either ride vehicles (discussed below), or to dig-in, using personal pits, covered presumably by a camouflage net. It should be noted that a method proposed to help maintain space suit temperatures, was the use of, “a reversible white and black umbrella” (U.S. Army, 1965); that might have doubled as a hide-shelter, that could be camouflaged.

CLOSE-COMBAT

A weapon was envisaged, by the 1965 U.S. Army study, namely a short-range (estimated to be some three to six feet: 1.8 meters), self-protection pepper-box pistol that relied on a separate single-shot gas blast from a high explosive detonation, “for close-in fighting” (U.S. Army, 1965). Penetration and lethality equivalence (discussed above), also applied to a combatant wearing a pressurized suit:

“it might be sufficient to penetrate a space suit since the suit would then suddenly decompress.” (U.S. Army, 1965)

Use of a personal shield was not envisaged by the 1965 U.S. Army study, to protect a combatant from damage being done to their space suit. However, use of anti-ballistic personal shields has become commonplace in contemporary policing (this issue is discussed below).

VEHICLES AND PROTECTION

Vehicles were envisaged for Lunar Base construction, transport, and scouting purposes (U.S. Army, 1959; U.S. Airforce, 1961), and for protection of combatants (U.S. Army, 1965). It was thought, “the first defensive personnel weapon 
 should have a capability of penetrating (at the minimum) thin skinned vehicles.” (U.S. Army, 1965) Penetration and lethality equivalence (discussed above), applied to, “vehicle requirements 
 for use in an extra-terrestrial environment.” (U.S. Army, 1965) The most notable, was the need to provide these with some type of skin protection; it was thought that vehicles would initially be thin skinned, advancing to more thicker armour as projectile weapons continued to increase penetrative power.

CONCLUSION

Only a small force was envisaged for a Lunar Base, namely: “a final complement of 12 men” (U.S. Army, 1959). Given, the ranges possible for direct, and indirect-fire it is likely that a highly distributed type of combat would have been used, with only teams of two, or three riding a thin skinned vehicle designed to afford combatants some means of protection. Each fighting unit searching-out and attacking opposing forces. Contemporary space exploration has seen development of small and larger sized robotic rovers that could be controlled by the vehicle-borne roving team, or from a coordinated attack and defence plan under the command of a Lunar Base operator. Current tactical-techniques, not considered in the late 1950s, or early 1960s, such as anti-ballistic personal shields, would likely see deployment in a potential Lunar surface combat. Like modern policing, seen during Sumerian warfare, or medieval period combat using the large man-sized Italian Pavise, carried by a Pavisier, who specialized in carrying this cover to protect an archer, cross bowman, or hand-gunner could see Lunar surface combat conducted by paired individuals, and companion robot rovers using a shield. In regards to other worlds, such as Mars, different operation parameters are already known, that are much more Earth like. For instance, the current 2020 mission will see deployment along with the Perseverance rover, the first use of a Mars Helicopter UAV – Ingenuity, designed to act in conjunction with the rover scouting potential safe routes ahead. Not envisaged by the 1965 U.S. Army study was the capacity of 3D Printing and computer-aided design to greatly increase the capacity to manufacture weapons, and make new ones as a speed-up of the second stage process of making next-generation bespoke weapons based on real operational experience and on-the-ground innovation. This could lead to a tactics situation, where as long as the raw materials are available, or even extracted locally on the Moon, then a relatively small force could set up an extensive denial strategy, and keep replenishing it, stopping enemy approaches to the Lunar Base, and other assets that have been constructed on the Moon.

Folks , you will find below the extract from page 7 of the original article in my first post of this thread...it's about the real historical events that occurred after the Nazis escaped from Antarctica - to the moon in 1948...something happened in 1972 to the Horizon lunar base secretly built by the U.S. - it was destroyed by the Nazis on the moon , post which the U.S. and the Soviet Union abandoned all plans of building a base on the moon...back in the 1950s , it had even been contemplated under "Project A119" to blast the lunar surface with an H-bomb . That project was shelved .

***The whole world watched when astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped onto the Moon in 1969, but the heart of the Apollo 11 mission was taking place 60 nautical miles above, where Michael Collins, in the command module Columbia , was continuing the reconnaissance work undertaken by previous Apollo missions to photograph the Walhalla base. Since Apollo 8 had first orbited the Moon in late December of 1968, NASA had photographed the base with ever more powerful cameras to assess its defensive capabilities. Back on Earth, planning experts analyzed the photographs and film brought back from the Apollo orbiters and developed an assault strategy.
While the Apollo missions were putting boots on the ground and developing expertise for a planned ground assault, the Russian plan took a different approach. The Zond series of missions are still described as planned Moon landings, but they secretly aimed to create an orbiting base assembled from Soyuz 7K-L1 components, which would be used to knock out the Walhalla base’s defenses from long range before dropping troops to conquer it. As will be seen, though, this plan did not reach completion.

US and Soviet Moonbases

In parallel with their early satellite programs, the United States and the Soviet Union both began planning moonbases of their own, with the intention of taking the war to the Moon and extinguishing the Nazi threat once and for all. The effort was also spurred by growing Cold War tensions: whoever controlled the Moon, it was thought, would also control the Earth.

APOLLO 13

The Black Sun response to the Apollo landings came in 1970 with the attack on Apollo 13. When the spacecraft came within five and a half hours of lunar orbit, it was struck by a KSK energy beam that caused an oxygen tank to explode, severely damaging the Service Module and causing the mission to be aborted.
For three tense days, the world watched as the crew struggled to survive and return to Earth in their crippled spacecraft, believing American press releases that wrote the explosion off as an accident. In American military circles, though, it was well known that this was an attack, and a response was urgently needed.
Apollo 13 was the last of the program actually to be launched. The remaining four missions were simulated in the Nevada desert while the United States secretly switched its efforts to developing von Braun’s proposed moonbase in order to mount an assault on Walhalla and end the Nazi threat once and for all.

Lunex and Horizon

In 1958–59, both the US Army and US Air Force commissioned plans to establish a manned base on the Moon by the mid-1960s.
Project Lunex, the Air Force plan, used a one-piece lander and return vehicle that looked something like the Space Shuttle of the late 20th century. It planned to establish a permanent American presence on the Moon by 1968. Officially, the project was scrapped over crew safety concerns, and because the lander would require an even larger rocket than the Saturn V to take it to the Moon. However, various aspects of the Lunex designs were developed as classified projects at the famed Lockheed-Martin “Skunk Works” and saw service as components of Project Horizon.
Project Horizon was conceived by Wernher von Braun’s team at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency, and aimed to establish a manned moonbase by 1967. Saturn-A boosters would be used to lift components into orbit, where they would be assembled at a space station. The project was examined at the highest levels, and then shelved in favor of the Apollo program.
After the attack on Apollo 13 , however, priorities changed. After a total of 40 classified launches in 1970, the so-called “lunar shuttle” was complete, and starting in January 1971 it landed structural components on the southwestern edge of the Mare Imbrium, a comfortable distance from the Walhalla base. A defensive perimeter was set up immediately, consisting of low-yield Davy Crockett nuclear rockets and Claymore mines adapted to pierce space suits. The first phase of construction was complete by April and over the following 18 months a large complement of trained volunteers from every elite branch of the US military was secretly moved in.

Zvezda and Zond

The Soviet Zvezda project was begun in 1972. It was planned to deliver prefabricated modules to the Moon using the N1 rocket, Russia’s answer to the Saturn V, and assemble the base on the lunar surface. This plan had the advantage of creating a base that could be made operational far more quickly than its American counterpart. However, the project suffered serious delays because of the problematic N-1, and after 1970 the plan was abandoned in favor of the Zond orbital station. Having observed the failure of Operation Lyre in 1972, however, the plan was canceled in 1974 without a shot being fired.

The Strategic Defense Initiative was aimed at defending the United States against Nazi spacecraft as well as Soviet missiles. (PD)
Operation Lyre

Operation Lyre took place on March 17–19, 1972. Over 200 specially-trained US troops moved overland from the Horizon base, assaulting Walhalla on the morning of March 19. The attack was the culmination of a plan that had begun six months earlier: an initial rocket attack aimed to knock out the base’s heavier defenses while ground troops in modified space suits conducted a ground assault.
The attack was a complete failure. Although the initial rocket barrage did some damage to Walhalla ’s heavier defensive weaponry, lighter point-defense weapons wrought terrible havoc among the Americans, who were forced back three times before abandoning the attack. Details of the mission are still classified, and the casualties were hidden within the military losses for the First Battle of QuáșŁng Tri which began on March 30.
The main effects of Operation Lyre were to knock out the Sonnengewehr and cause minor damage to the V-9 rail gun. Some called this a partial success, although neither weapon had yet been able to cause serious damage on Earth. However, it undoubtedly had an effect on the Black Sun’s decision to abandon Projekt Mjölnir and accelerate plans for the next phase of the Bifrost Protocol.
With the failure of Operation Lyre , the Horizon base was abandoned and the survivors were shuttled back to Earth. The Apollo program was wound down: two more missions were flown, but the pretense was no longer necessary: the United States had abandoned the Moon.
In the Soviet Union, military planners considered their options. Work on the Zond project was still hampered by flaws in the N1 rocket system, and despite the damage to two of Walhalla ’s long-range weapons a Nazi reprisal attack was feared. For the next two decades, both superpowers switched their priority from attacking the Moon to defending the Earth.

Although several moonbase projects have been proposed since 1972, the continuing threat from Walhalla has led to a focus on unmanned missions. (NASA)
Orbital Defenses

After Operation Lyre , the technological advantage switched back to the Soviet Union. It already had a working orbital station thanks to the Salyut program, while the United States was forced to catch up with the Skylab project. Through the later 1970s and the 1980s, orbital stations of increasing sophistication served to provide early warning of approaching threats and, if necessary, direct ground-launched missiles to their targets.

The Salyut Program

Building on the Zvezda concept, the Soviet Union already had advanced plans for space station construction as early as 1971. Salyut 1 was launched in April of that year, and had been intended as a dry run for the construction of the planned lunar orbital station when the failure of Operation Lyre made both superpowers rethink their strategy. Russia’s Almaz program aimed to create a series of military space stations using Salyut technology, but after three missions it was decided to focus instead on automated defense satellites coordinated from a single manned station. This project continued under the Almaz name through the later Salyut missions of the early 1980s and the construction of the Mir station. Salyut 7 , the last of the series, remained in orbit until 1991.

Conducted in March 1972, Operation Lyre was America’s first attack on the moonbase. The battle resulted in heavy American casualties with minimal damage to the base itself. According to some commentators, the plan was rushed through with insufficient time for training in lunar conditions; the failure of the initial rocket barrage to knock out all of Walhalla’s defensive weaponry was also critical. Shortly thereafter, the American Horizon moonbase was abandoned and the Apollo moonshot program was wound down.
Skylab

Barely a year after Operation Lyre , NASA launched Skylab I , an orbiting scientific station whose stated purpose was to make astronomical observations, survey the Earth from space, and conduct experiments in zero gravity. It also had a classified mission: to detect approaching spacecraft and direct the fire of ground-launched missiles. This mission was largely carried out by automated systems, allowing Skylab to work continuously between the three manned missions to the station. Upgrades to Skylab’s detection and communications systems continued throughout its lifetime, and there was a plan to use the Space Shuttle to boost it to a higher orbit, but delays in Shuttle development prevented this operation from taking place. Skylab finally dropped out of orbit on July 11, 1979, breaking up on re-entry. The largest pieces came down near Perth in Western Australia.

Killer Satellites

The Soviet military had developed the Istrebitel Sputnik (IS; Fighter Satellite) concept in the 1960s as part of the Zond project, which saw the orbiting moonbase as the command and control center for a fleet of attack satellites parked in lunar orbit. Like the Zond space station, it was a simple matter to adapt the system for use in Earth orbit, both looking outward for approaching Nazi craft and looking out for rival US satellites.
Upon detecting an enemy launch from the lunar surface, the Zond command module would direct the nearest IS satellite toward it: the satellite would detonate a fragmentation warhead which was effective at a range of up to half a mile.
Until 1983, US orbital defense relied on missiles launched from the Earth’s surface. That year, however, President Ronald Reagan launched the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). Nicknamed “Star Wars,” this ambitious program surrounded the Earth with a network of satellites armed with X-ray lasers and rail guns. The project was sold to the public as a defense against Soviet intercontinental ballistic missiles, raising Cold War tensions to a pitch not seen since the Cuban Missile Crisis, but equally important was its ability to detect and destroy incoming Nazi saucers.
The launch of the first SDI satellites led to a brief period of orbital dueling to accompany the political and military posturing on the Earth’s surface. Although Soviet Premier Yuri Andropov publicly declared an end to the IS program, US and Soviet satellites continued to spar with each other until the collapse of the Soviet Union.

ASAT Missiles

In addition to orbital stations and armed satellites, both superpowers relied on conventional missiles to bolster their defenses against an attack from space. Known in military circles as ASATs, antisatellite weapon programs were usually piggybacked onto antiballistic missile (ABM) development, frequently using the same launch vehicles.
Initial development stalled in the 1960s when the electromagnetic pulse from a nuclear ASAT caused disruption across a wide area of the Pacific, but after 1972 ASAT development assumed a new urgency with Earth thrown onto a defensive footing. Since that time several countries have developed an ASAT capability, most notably China, India, and Israel, which arguably has the most to fear from a Nazi attack on Earth.

The 1980s and Beyond

The collapse of the Soviet Union severely disrupted the Russian space program, although several Soviet initiatives continued. The Mir space station remained operational, and the SH-11 “Gorgon” ABM was deployed around Moscow along with other defenses such as the 53T6 “Gazelle” system.
In the United States, the lander from Project Horizon developed into the Space Shuttle, which was instrumental in deploying a network of military and civilian satellites that covered the entire globe. According to leaked Department of Defense documents, the satellites of the Global Positioning System (GPS) include a classified module codenamed SID (Space Intruder Detector) that watches for incoming threats including missiles, asteroids — and presumably, though this is never openly stated, Nazi saucers. The SID system is patched into the secret network of SDI hunter-killer satellites, and controlled both from the ground and from the International Space Station.

The International Space Station

Launched in 1998 and expanded several times, the International Space Station (ISS) began as a US/Russian cooperation after the Skylab and Mir stations became obsolete. The European, Canadian, and Japanese Space Agencies have also contributed modules, and astronauts from several other countries have served tours of duty aboard.
In addition to its scientific work, the ISS continues to serve as the primary command and control center for Earth’s orbital defenses. Each member nation also maintains a backup control center: Houston, Texas; Baikonur, Kazakhstan; Kourou, French Guiana; Saint-Hubert, Quebec; Tanegashima, Japan; and Harwell, England.

Recent Moon Shots

In 2004, President George W. Bush proposed an American moonbase by 2020, but the idea quickly evaporated after initial cost estimates. Some observers believe that Bush wanted to capitalize on the early success of Operation Iraqi Freedom and bring the war against Walhalla into the open; others claim that the almost instant dismissal of the project was part of a cover-up organized by the US military and intelligence communities after Bush accidentally came perilously close to exposing the existence of Walhalla , which has been classified Above Top Secret for almost 70 years.
Since 1990, more nations have joined in the effort to monitor the Walhalla base and protect the Earth from future attacks. Results have varied.
In 1990 the Japanese Hagoromo orbiter was quickly neutralized, despite a highly elliptical orbit that left it vulnerable only during brief passes. Its transmitter was knocked out, probably by a Röntgenkanone or Kugelblitz- derived weapon. In 2007 the SELENE project placed three satellites in elliptical orbits around the Moon, transmitting data back to the Tanegashima Space Center. Despite heavier shielding than the Hagoromo , the SELENE mission’s Kayuga main orbiter crashed into the lunar surface in 2009 after suffering control problems. The Okina relay satellite was brought down a few days later. A similar fate was suffered by the European Space Agency’s SMART-1 orbiter in 2006 after three years of observations, and India’s Chandrayaan-1 probe after just ten months. These three shootdowns, of small satellites (3.5–5 feet each side) at distances of 60 miles or more, have led some commentators to express dismay at the frightening precision of Walhalla ’s long-range defensive weapons; others suggest that all were lucky shots, finally hitting their targets after months of trying.
In 2007, China launched its own Moon probe, Chang’e 1 . About four times the size of Okina and SMART-1 , it was brought down 15 months after entering lunar orbit. The Chang’e 2 remained in lunar orbit for nine months before leaving the Moon for other objectives, and seems to have escaped unscathed.
In December 2013, the Chang’e 3 lander touched down across the Mare Imbrium from Walhalla and deployed the Yutu rover. At some time during the next lunar night (December 26–January 11), however, the rover suffered unspecified mechanical damage and has been unable to move since, stranded less than 165 feet from the lander. It is uncertain whether the damage is coincidental, as the China National Space Administration claims, or whether Yutu was intentionally immobilized by scouts sent from Walhalla to investigate the lander. The launch dates for the Chang’e 4 and Chang’e 5 missions have since been postponed from 2015 and 2017 to “before 2020.”
Meanwhile, Russia’s planned Luna-Glob project aims to put more rovers on the Moon, perhaps for reconnaissance purposes. Although Yutu was disabled within a few days of landing, some schools of thought believe that a small, fast-moving rover, able to take advantage of ground cover, may be able to recover more information at closer range than an orbiter.

The MQ-14 Lunar Hawk drone developed from the X-37 unmanned spaceplane, and is the primary weapon of Operation Eclipse. Drone strikes against the moonbase commenced in May 2015 and are ongoing at the time of publication. All details of the operation remain classified, although a squad-carrying X-37 variant is said to be in development, perhaps for a mopup operation after the drone-strike program is completed.
Operation Eclipse

The X-37 unmanned space-plane flew its first test mission in April 2010. Almost immediately, the US Air Force ordered a modified version, known as the X-37B. In a classified program, this was developed into the MQ-14 Lunar Hawk, a drone attack vehicle.
Emboldened by the success of drone strikes as a strategy in the War on Terror, the US Air Force began developing a secret lunar drone strategy in 2008. The first attack on Walhalla took place at 4pm Eastern Standard Time (10pm Central European Time) on May 8, 2015: 70 years to the minute from the signing of Germany’s unconditional surrender in Berlin.
Like the military drones deployed in the Earth’s atmosphere, the MQ-14’s small size and agility make it harder to detect and target than an orbiting satellite or a manned spacecraft. The design incorporates many stealth features that help mask it from enemy radar, and its avionics suite includes an Automated Terrain Following (ATF) package allowing it to fly at extremely low altitudes, making the most of ground cover.

Folks , looking at the events of the present day , I am more inclined to believe that this story is 100% factual...one Nazi faction did somehow manage to escape from Antarctica and establish a foothold in the Aristarchus crater of the moon...if they did survive there for the last 75 years , their technology may even have leapfrogged that on Earth .

Their activities might well be contributing to at least some of the anomalous sightings on the moon . Of course , there is likely a much older civilisation existing on the dark side of the moon.

Any thoughts , comments ?

Regards

There were reports of inhabitants on the Moon as far back, at least, to the 1800s. I am familiar with a third party account/quote where Joseph Smith, Jr. remarked about there being inhabitants on the moon. Many people ridicule him and consider it a huge farce / faux pas, but I sincerely believe he was correct and had some actual knowledge of this. I suspect there are other religions' records/writings that also remark on such things, but I'm not familiar with them.

Clearly there has been extremely much more highly advanced things going on not only outside of our known society and world. I have heard repeatedly before that the governments of the world are 100 years ahead of known open technology - that your jaw would drag the floor if one were to see the things they have going on in the dark labs of the world...

Well said @Soretna , things just don't add up unless you factor in something like this...there are too many loose ends in the current narrative that the mainstream media is trying to hardsell !

Folks , I believe the lack of any manned mission to the moon in last 50 years , proves the presence of the Nazi base on the moon ! Only a deterrent of that sort could have made the nations of Earth avoid building a base on the moon , following the Euphoria of the first official moon landing of 1969...

Regards

Plausible, but it doesn't necessarily have to be the Germans inasmuch as it could have been any other presence... Or even our own military presence or many such presences and/or perhaps a robust population...

True @Soretna , it's most likely a combination of such factors that has acted as a deterrent !

Regards

Sidhartha,

With the technology that they seem to have on The Moon, I doubt that separate civilizations would be there co-inhabiting. Escaped human NAZIs from the Earth and traditional lunar residents on opposite sides? They would have communicated with each other and would probably have joint activities.

I can't see NAZIs settling there unless the lunar inhabitants took them in, even invited them and then took them in - out of mercy.

The lunar inhabitants are mentioned in the Puranas as visiting the Earth in friendliness and having contact with the celestials.

By the way, I can't really figure out who was behind that NAZIs with their Swastika flag; although I keep hearing about Tibetans, and Asian contacts.

And who is behind the Russians with their hammer and scythe flag, so reminiscent of the banner of the celestial Parasurama, the partial incarnation?

Cheers!

@deandddd , I agree .

There are some very specific "facts" mentioned in this article about the Nazi activities on their lunar base , certain structures and light pulses etc. in the Aristarchus crater of the moon , that are verifiable . Also their weapon systems have been described in detail - those again can be checked . Last but not least , the events of 1972 when a secret lunar base of the US was destroyed and the "Operation Eclipse" launched post that to eliminate the Nazi Base are all points worth investigating further...!

Regards

Sidhartha,

Things like the existence of a secret U.S. lunar base, and a NAZI base need to be based on extraordinary evidence because they are extraordinary claims.

I certainly accept the existence of structures and light pulses, but based on what do we attribute them to NAZIs? The Moon is not so large, not like Jupiter. I think that any intrusions would be met with shortly. I saw a film clip once, whach is at least "some" kind of evidence, of two UFOs flying out of the dark bottom of a lunar crater, then zipping around behind The Moon. "If" the lunar inhabitants are able to do that, if they have such resources, then they wouldn't sit around playing tiddlywinks while the NAZIs establish a base.

Cheers!

@deandddd , the Nazis probably took shelter on the lunar crater , with support of the moon dwellers (from the dark side of the moon) , the same way they took shelter of the Hollow Earthers in Antarctica...the specific details included in this article are quite compelling and seem logical...even the Oxygen tank of Apollo 13 was busted by a mysterious energy beam weapon , that was likely being operated by the Nazis from the lunar surface .

The US made an attempt as recently as 2015 , to eliminate the Nazi lunar base using their lunar "hawk" drone .

As far back as the late 1940s and early 1950s , both the USA and the USSR were contemplating plans for "nuking" the lunar surface , in order to eliminate the Nazi presence there...then later dropped that plan and tried instead for a manned moon mission - eventually that transpired in July 1969...however , the secret lunar base that the US did build in the early 1970s , was destroyed by the Nazis in 1972 .

**In fact there are claims that the LCROSS mission of NASA in Oct. 2009 , was actually a nuclear detonation on the Moon's South Pole , not just a "kinetic" impact :-

Regards

Sidhartha,

The explosion of a nuclear device at the South Pole of The Moon by the LaCross mission is a documented fact. The missile might have been intercepted, though, before it hit ground zero.

On one hand, this talk of bases on The Moon has no proof. That doesn't mean that they never existed. And knowing that the Moon has a nice, thick atmosphere would make it all the easier. Still, I don't think that the lunar inhabitants would have let the USA even get a foothold.

We were hearing about UFO back engineering even 30 years ago, and black uniformed soldiers were being sighted as far back as a couple of decades, and military vehicles painted black. At least, those were the things that we were hearing.

Cater wrote about a U.S. antigravitics program during the 1950s that was officially shut down in the late 1950s. So there is a lot possilble that we cannot even imagine.

So there might be weapons and armed forces ready to fight WWIII that we can't imagine, either.

Now you know why I can't get to sleep at night.

Cheers! And fears!

@deandddd , even at the height of the Cold War , the only issue on which the Americans and the Soviets saw eye to eye was their common intent to blast the lunar surface with an H-Bomb...

Now imagine the nature & magnitude of the threat needed to have made those 2 bitter rivals of the Cold War, find common ground- to nuke the moon !

Then factor in the mysterious silence of Neil Armstrong and other Astronauts of the Apollo mission , the unexplained "accident" of Apollo 13 , the strange "lack of willpower" in NASA to revisit the moon , or the apparent lack of interest in setting up a permanent lunar base...from the Euphoric moments of July 1969 , how did things take such a different turn from what the enthusiastic public expected it to ??

Anyone who saw the "first" (official) moon landing by man in 1969 could not have believed at that point in time that even 53 years after the Apollo mission , there would be absolutely no progress made in colonising the moon - Zilch ?? Does this all add up ? I mean there has to be an elephant in the drawing room !!

Given all of the above , I am strongly inclined to believe that this theory of a Nazi presence on the moon , however improbable it may seem at first , is actually true !

Regards

I don't dismiss the idea of a NAZI presence on The Moon. But I like to understand the raison d'etre of things. And it is hard to understand which underground power block is behind which movement or grroup on the surface. Who was behind the NAZIs? It seems that the Tibetans were. Who was behind the Soviets? Who is behind Russia now? Are Atlanteans behind the USA Patriot movement? The Atlanteans had an underground presence in Wales and also the USA , even around the times of Arthur, if not before. So it is less absurd than one might think. Who was behind Babylon? Is Babylon influential still?

But I don't dismiss the idea. “Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.”

Cheers!
