About the book*:

"Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA" by Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara is a controversial work that delves into alleged hidden agendas and suppressed discoveries within NASA's history. The authors propose that NASA has concealed evidence of ancient extraterrestrial civilizations on the Moon and Mars, and that the agency's activities are influenced by secret societies and esoteric beliefs.

📘 Synopsis

At its core, Dark Mission asserts that NASA operates under a clandestine agenda, influenced by secret societies such as the Freemasons. The authors argue that many of NASA’s missions are orchestrated with symbolic meanings, aligning with ancient rituals and astrological events. They suggest that certain images and data, particularly those related to the Moon and Mars, have been deliberately suppressed or altered to prevent the public from discovering the truth.

One of the book’s primary claims is that structures on the Moon and Mars provide evidence of an ancient extraterrestrial presence. The authors cite anomalies in NASA photographs, claiming that these images depict artificial structures such as domes, towers, and remnants of cities. They argue that NASA has edited or withheld these images to maintain control over public perception.

The book also discusses alleged cover-ups surrounding the Apollo program. The authors claim that NASA’s lunar missions revealed far more than what was officially reported, including encounters with unexplained phenomena. They assert that astronauts were aware of these discoveries but were prevented from speaking openly about them.

Additionally, Dark Mission explores the role of symbolism in NASA’s history. The authors argue that many aspects of the agency’s decisions—such as mission naming conventions, launch times, and landing sites—are influenced by Masonic traditions and Egyptian mythology. This perspective suggests that NASA is not simply a scientific organization but one that adheres to a deeper, hidden philosophy.

While the book presents numerous instances where mission details align with known Masonic and esoteric traditions, these interpretations have been met with skepticism by the scientific community. Critics argue that much of the book’s reasoning relies on pattern recognition and speculation rather than verifiable scientific evidence.

We have the book and take a look at it to determine the book's condition. We ship in protective packing to ensure it arrives in the best possible shape during shipping. 

While we try to indicate the condition of all books, used books may have publisher or retail store merchant price stickers, writing or residuals or original pricing imprints and those may not be indicative of and differ from current pricing. Used books may have original or owners name, etc written or stamped in book. Stickers such as original or old pricing, inventory, etc may still be on the book as well as spots where the sticker has been previously removed. We do our best to describe the book in the condition notes above as well. Subject to shelf wear, the picture is the actual item photo. If we have more than one, we will endeavor to show the worst book or list separately. Pricing is based on today's value and not old price stickers.

We pack and ship with care! We do this right, unlike some of the other mega warehouse sellers who really haven't even looked at the book and then toss it in a cheap bag for shipping. We do better than that, and we suspect you expect better if you collect and value good books.
