New research claims that the moon could have supported life during two windows of its history, four and 3.5 billion years ago.
A study published in the journal Astrobiology has found that simple lifeforms could have survived on the lunar surface during two periods 3.5 and 4 billion years ago.


The study was conducted by two scientists, Professor Dirk Schulze-Makuch, an astrobiologist at Washington State University, and Professor Ian Crawford of Birkbeck, University of London.

They believe the moon must have been spewing out so much super-heated volatile gas, including water vapour, during these periods that it could have sustained life.

"If liquid water and a significant atmosphere were present on the early moon for long periods of time, we think the lunar surface would have been at least transiently habitable," Professor Schulze-Makuch said.

Interesting article and somewhat supports the views of John Lear that the Moon still has a thin atmosphere and water today.

This provides further justification for looking for evidence of past life on the moon first, as opposed to Mars. Particularly fossils in the caves and water deposits recently reported.

I remain of the opinion that we ourselves need to visit these places and determine on our own what actually is or was happening.
Independent scientists and researchers without ties to propaganda regimes provides valuable insights but I want to see for rmyself

What about Venus? That's an Earth sized planet that is very near yet the official exploration of it is almost non-existent. The 'story' about Venus is that its atmosphere is too thick and hot. If the soviets and americans didnt disclose the entire truth 40 years ago, we wouldnt have a clue. Venus is in the 'goldilocks zone'. If you were looking for a planet most likely to have developed life a while ago, look no further than Venus.

for more info on the moon do read Christopher Knight/Alan Butler's book "Who Built the Moon?"-

very revealing- the moon is a construct, not a natural trabant- our moon is too big for our planet-

just a sugesstion (that I've taken very much to heart)-

Have a look/listen to these: Icke's take on the moon is well known to his fans & I can recommend that one, although I haven't listened to the Veritas radio interview, it does sound very intriguing!
