For most Americans, the word NASA suggests a squeaky-clean image of technological infallibility.

Yet the truth is that NASA was born in a lie, and has concealed the truths about its occult origins. Dark Mission documents this seemingly wild assertion.

Why is the Bush administration intent on returning to the moon as quickly as possible? What are the reasons for the current “space race” with China, Russia, even India? Remarkable images reproduced within this book provided to author Richard C. Hoagland by disaffected NASA employees provide clues why, including information about suppressed lunar discoveries.

Mystical organizations quietly dominate NASA, carrying out their own secret agendas behind the scenes. This is the story of men at the very fringes of rational thought and conventional wisdom, operating at the highest levels of our country. Their policies are far more aligned with ancient religions and secret mystery schools than the facade of rational science NASA has successfully promoted to the world for almost fifty years.

Dark Mission is proof of the secret history of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the astonishing, seminal discoveries it has repeatedly suppressed for decades.

Richard C. Hoagland is the former science advisor to CBS News, author of The Monuments of Mars, and a frequent guest on the popular radio programs Coast To Coast and The Art Bell Show.

Mike Bara is a consulting engineer for Boeing aircraft. This is his first book.

Waste of time and money	Customer Rating:
Poorly written, and the book is of poor quality, with dubious and biased opinions. The endnotes are inferior, and obviously the book is an exercise in self-aggrandization for the author.

Dark mission	Customer Rating:
One very impressive and dense book, that makes you think. I am going to look for other Hoagland works. Future will say if he is right or wrong.

This is a great book...

Customer Rating:

I loved this book. This book is not just about space. The book confirms there was another shooter on that dark day in Dallas. A blown up picture shows what appears to be a crew cut policeman firing off the kill shot. This book is thoroughly documented. A book NASA will not want you to read. You will learn what the Apollo astronauts were really looking for on the Moon. There is even a chapter that explains why the Apollo astronauts don't remember much from the moon trip. A must read!

Chilling, Thrilling....

Richard Hoagland has been my hero for many a year, and it is breathtaking to see all this information at last in writing. The disparity between what we're told, and the Truth about Space will make you Gasp. Then it will make you Mad. From statements from the Astronauts, to true history from NASA insiders; from retouched and blurred photos from NASA, to the REAL pics of the moon and mars. What is out there is our right to know, and to demand our rights, and soon, is an urgent necessity. There's Big Plans going on for our Solar System, and they don't seem to include Us.

Excellent book! A real eye opener!

Customer Rating:

I heartily recommend this book. Good reading, although it bogs a little in the front part with a lot of technical jargon. Hoagland has done his research very well and exposes NASA as another of those wonderful government branches which will LIE to the American people to further it's hidden goals. I always wondered what the true reason was behind the sudden stoppage of the Apollo missions in the Mid-70s. I leave the verbosity to the other reviewers here... as they seem to enjoy that! ;-)
