Lovely clear blue sky

Indeed, the Martian atmosphere is a light blue colour and not light reddish as was made out in the 1970's Viking missions. Numerous ex NASA employees have gone on record to state that those pictures were deliberately doctored to deceive the public into giving the impression that Mars is a desolate and alien landscape.

Which adds further credence to the alleged Mars landing video footage shown in "Alternative 3"... it shows a blue sky

If I may ask Kiwielf what's alternative 3? I look forward to your reply. Thank you in advance

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_3

Alternative 3 is a television programme, broadcast once only in the United Kingdom in 1977, and later broadcast in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, as a fictional hoax, an heir to Orson Welles' radio production of The War of the Worlds. Purporting to be an investigation into the UK's contemporary "brain drain", Alternative 3 uncovered a plan to make the Moon and Mars habitable in the event of climate change and a terminal environmental catastrophe on Earth.

The programme was originally meant to be broadcast on April Fools Day, 1977. While its broadcast was delayed until June 20, the credits explicitly date the film to April 1. Alternative 3 ended with credits for the actors involved in the production and featured interviews with a fictitious American astronaut.

Thank you very much for the quick reply Kiwielf and the enlightenment you have brought me.

You're welcome nephalim - an Alternative 3 novel followed which has recently been uploaded here on Avalon (downloadable PDF). Despite being a work of fiction, over the years it has become a cult classic with many "out there" believing it to be largely true.

I remember seeing it as a kid in NZ,.. it sent chills through me! The following day TVNZ was inundated with phone calls from Kiwi's who were justifiably upset. TVNZ's reply was that it was an April Fool's joke (to look at the end credits), and played a repeat screening the following night after the public uproar.

According to some sources, the section near the end of the video, showing an alleged joint US-Russia mission landing on Mars in 1962, (spacecraft borrowed from alien technology), was authentic. It clearly depicts a quite different view of Mars from what NASA has been showing us; ie blue skies, habitable etc.

There are several other threads on Avalon, some quite recent, about related information if you have a search. Bill, who also is in the movie, has alerted us to the upcoming movie/doco, "Packing for Mars". (trailer below)

Here's the official trailer, which sent the same chills down my spine as did the original - can't wait to see it.

Looks like they pulled out and dusted off the old landscape background from 2001... :D
