Do you think that the moon is hollow and artificial?
i don't know, heard a lot about it. There are a lot of other interesting claims and theories out, like ringmakers of Saturn (Dr. Norman Bergrun - Nasa) and an ancient war with nuclear weapons that probably made mars inhabitable (John Brandenburg - Plasma Physicist). Very interesting stuff, but until now, there is no proof....
I LOVE THE UNIVERSE! thanks nice post!
thanks :)
