You know, even if you don't believe these, I find them interesting enough - and quite frankly, I feel that you can even learn one or two things from them. If nothing else, it will eventually lead you toward thinking and hypothesizing about some past events.
Oh, and the common topic will also be space. Because there are quite a few conspiracy theories going around related to it - besides all those weird alien stories.
1. Russians and the Lunar Landing
In 1969, Apollo 11 wasn't the only machine that landed on the surface of the Moon. Luna 15, an unmanned probe landed there too.
The conspiracy theory in this particular event goes like this: Luna 15 wasn't unmanned, that it actually carried a Soviet astronaut. The funny part in this theory comes when apparently Luna 15 wasn't made to be able to come back to Earth, so this Soviet astronaut would have had to casually walk up to Apollo 11 and ask the guys to take him home.
Ridiculous, isn't it?
2. A dead astronaut
But then, there are actually people who think that the Russians sent someone else way before Gagarin, who died a slow and painful death.
The fun part in THIS one is that there is supposed to be a recording of this event- as in, a radio transmission that was intercepted by some brothers from Italy, about the man slowly drifting off into space.
3. Planet X
Let's go a bit further out, guys. Some people are convinced that our Solar System is not complete without the giant, unnamed planet - Planet X. Yes, there are a few people out there who are convinced that this mystery planet is number 9 - and if you still think of Pluto as a planet, number 10.
This Planet X is - as I already told you guys- supposed to be huge (So I don't really get how it would still not be discovered if it's huge...), and it should be coming close to Earth soon. People actually say that the Earthquakes and other natural phenomena that are occurring nowadays are because it's getting closer.
4. The Black Knight
No, it's not Batman coming to spice things up here. The Black Knight is supposed to be a satellite, that was discovered in March 1960, orbiting the Earth. It is said, that the mysterious object wasn't Russian or American, so this meant that it was probably alien. Or, you know... someone was lying.
This satellite also supposedly had about 15 tons, which was far too heavy for a rocket from that era, and it traveled twice as fast than any satellite at that time. This satellite orbits every 15-20 years, which puts its new arrival to 2016. (Oh, my, tell me this won't be another end of the world thingy).
It is also said that this particular satellite shadowed Sputnik and signaled old radio waves - which has been decoded to be a star map, 13000 years ago. Oh, and let's not forget the cryptic message that was supposed to come also in the form of these radio waves:
"START HERE. OUR HOME IS EPSILON BOOTIS. WHICH IS A DOUBLE STAR. WE LIVE ON THE 6TH PLANET OF 7 - CHECK THAT, 6TH OF 7- COUNTING OUTWARDS FROM THE SUN WHICH IS THE LARGER OF THE TWO. OUR 6TH PLANET HAS ONE MOON, OUR 4TH PLANET HAS THREE, OUR FIRST AND THIRD PLANETS EACH HAVE ONE. OUR PROBE IS IN THE ORBIT OF YOUR MOON THIS UPDATES THE POSITION OF ARCTURUS SHOWN ON OUR MAPS."
By the way, Boötes contains the fourth brightest star in the night sky, called Arcturus. This is what the constellation looks like:
It actually kind of reminds me of Orion...
Of course, the pics were posted on NASA's site, but they were proclaimed to be space junk. Well, who knows, right? (Though I would still think it was actually something that the US experimented on, just because it's the US we are talking about. Yeah, I know, I'm a bitch).
5. Nazi's on Mars
Yep. You read that right. There are some people saying that in April 1945 the Nazi's sent some people on Mars- on a joint mission with the Japanese too!- with a prototype Haunebu III saucer craft. (They also believe that the top secret weapon that the Nazi were building by the name of the Bell was apparently this craft.)
This machine was supposed to actually take them to Mars in 8 months. This is quite a nice thing, since it does take around that much time to reach Mars - when Mars is closest to Earth, of course- with a modern spacecraft, using a shitload of fuel.
Curiosity for instance reached Mars in 253 days. And don't forget the fact that this was 2012.
I love how everyone is trying to make the Nazis look like something out of this world - while, in fact, they couldn't even make decent rockets that could hit ENGLAND (They launched about 1400 of them, and a bunch of them actually missed a the whole freaking England.).
So yeah, there we go. What do you think?
