People have believed in the possibility of a Hollow Earth for well over a century. Now, some say there also may be a Hollow Mars. The Hollow Earth stories began with a theory proposed by Edmund Halley in 1692. The theory was pseudo-scientific and made the claim that the Earth is a hollow shell some 500 miles thick with two concentric shells and an innermost core with an inner sun. He said that atmospheres separated these shells, that each shell had its own magnetic poles and all rotated at different speeds.
Halley used his theory to explain unusual compass readings at various places around the world and also hoped it would provide a reason for the northern and southern lights at the Earth’s polar regions. I also imagine that he took into consideration the already well-known and very ancient stories of people living under the earth as mentioned in the Bible, as well as Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Scandinavian and European legends. These legends were expanded as the centuries passed to include stories of entrances to the underworld culled from the beliefs of African, Asian, Native American and South American civilizations.
By the mid-1800s explorers, treasure and fossil hunters returned from the four corners of the globe with more inner world tales they heard from cultures separated by continents. These tales involved the existence of an underworld or inner world populated with powerful beings that possessed impressive technology or magic. These new stories built on the older legends and theories during a time when conventional beliefs were being questioned and many new theories and ideas found a home in the minds and literature of that era.
As various clubs and groups met to consider all the hollow earth legends, they came to the conclusion that there are three distinct plains of physical existence on our planet. The Outer Surface, or surface of the earth, is a place where civilizations are born. After they grow weary of dealing with the constantly changing surface conditions, societies advanced enough to do so move underground to the Middle Earth. It’s a place of tunnels and caverns that links the Outer Surface to the more serene and affable climate of the Inner World.
The Inner World is the home of the hollow earth dwellers. With less gravity, a perfect and clean environment, and a miniature sun that allegedly shines constantly, beings that exist in this realm are said to live extremely long lives and be far more evolved and technologically advanced than the surface dwellers. Believers in this theory point to the northern and southern lights at the poles as proof that entrances to the inner world exist there. They believe the lights are caused by the existence of the hollow earth sun.
Alleged proof of the polar entrances to the Inner World has arrived during recent decades in the form of satellite photos and photographs taken by Astronauts during various NASA missions. These appear to show areas that look like holes or circular places where clouds are being sucked inside the earth. Many believe that these photos prove that the atmosphere surrounding our outer sphere also feeds the inner earth atmosphere that serves the various levels that exist inside our planet.
While scientists scoff at the talk of a hollow earth and all of the evidence presented to support that theory, believers point to an incident involving U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Richard Byrd. In 1947 he undertook an historic exploration of the North Pole by air. During that time he flow beyond the pole and allegedly traveled further than maps indicated he should have been able to. Those that monitored his radio transmissions say he noted a warming of the air and described seeing areas not covered by ice.
During Byrd’s flight, he supposedly described seeing semi-tropical environments and even extinct animals (like woolly mammoths) that roamed the landscape below him. Hollow Earth proponents say he did not fly beyond the North Pole, but into the inner world. Byrd made a similar flight over the South Pole which allegedly produced the same results. But on subsequent flights over that pole, he had some company. Those later flights were part of a military and scientific expedition known as Operation High Jump that began in August of 1946 and may have had some unusual goals. One might have been a hunt for UFOs.
Several former members of the military say that the real purpose of at least one aspect of the multi-faceted mission to the South Pole was to search for evidence of UFOs and Alien Bases in that region. Similar military missions were later conducted in the northern polar region, but on a much reduced scale. If Byrd’s flights and the search for UFOs and Aliens at the poles were unusual, the face the military tried to put on the whole South Pole adventure was downright strange and involved many unanswered questions.
In 1948 the U.S. Government released a film produced with the cooperation of the Navy and Army Air Force called The Secret land. The film won an Academy Award back in its day and has been shown on cable channels during recent years, especially on TNT. To most people, it’s just a propaganda piece designed to justify the personnel, military resources and expenses involved with the 1946 south pole military expedition. However, anyone with knowledge of the hollow earth theory or UFO phenomenon will find a treasure trove of unsolved mysteries and curious coincidences surround the film and the expedition.
The Secret land is a documentary narrated by several famous actors who were still serving in the military as a result of their military service in World War Two when it was produced. These included Robert Montgomery, Robert Taylor, Van Heflin and Jimmy Stewart. Interestingly enough, it’s introduced by James Forrestal, the first U.S. Secretary of Defense (a cabinet position that replaced the old Secretary of War title) and former Secretary of the Navy during World War Two.
Less than a year after the film was released, Forrestal was dead. While he showed absolutely no signs of any type of an abnormal psychological condition when he appeared in the film, Forrestal committed suicide by supposedly throwing himself out of a barred window on the 16th floor of the Bethesda Naval Hospital on May 22, 1949. He was allegedly admitted to the facility suffering from an undiagnosed mental condition. The cause of that condition is the subject of great debate in the UFO research community.
Some believe that the fact of Alien visitations to our earth may have caused the mental condition that eventually led to Secretary Forrestal’s suicide, if his death was a suicide at all. One theory suggests that when James Forrestal was told about the discovery that Aliens from another planet exist and were visiting ours, it was just too much for him. Known to be a religious man with traditional beliefs, he may not have been able to fit the existence of space aliens into his faith.
According to the late conspiracy theorist Bill Cooper, James Forrestal may have been one of the first victims of what General Douglas MacArthur once described as ‘an interplanetary war’ during a speech at West Point Military Academy. Cooper often said that the Secretary of State was probably murdered by government operatives while at Bethesda. After allegedly viewing the bodies of dead and living aliens from one or more UFO crashes that may have occurred before, during or just after World War Two, Forrestal’s death may have been ordered after the powers that be decided that his sudden and inexplicable mental illness made him too much of a security risk to go on living.
Others believe that Forrestal’s Mind may have been compromised by Aliens using some sort of unknown process which either made him a security risk that needed to be eliminated or caused him to take his own life because he couldn’t deal with what was happening to him. Either way, he was gone and several fascinating mysteries remain. Apart from the UFO phenomenon itself, what really happened during the great Antarctic military expedition of 1947?
Many wonder why such an expedition was ever undertaken at a time when the U.S. was involved in so many unstable political areas and situations after World War II. Operation High Jump officially committed thirteen ships, one submarine, twenty-three aircraft and nearly five thousand military personnel to the 1946 endeavor. Those are the official numbers, but watching The Secret Land indicates that more planes and ships were there than reported.
