Thanks to AI and people with nothing better to do, it has become virtually impossible to believe anything you see on the internet. I don’t think that’s a bad thing. The response to COVID led tens of millions of people to adopt a healthy distrust of experts and the politicians (few of whom are good at anything but running for office) who use them to accumulate wealth and power.
If you can’t be certain it’s real, then you ought to go in as a skeptic and then work your way backward toward believability. But to be fair, the conspiracy theorists have been winning a lot more than they’ve been losing over the past five years, and it’s ok to be Mulder, but sometimes it’s not what the so-called conspiracy theorists claim, or at least not the way they claim it.
Jews & Stuff
Jews have had 6000 years (give or take) to take over the world, and yet they continue to be one of the most hated and oppressed people on the planet. Europe never liked them and still doesn’t (despite all that posturing about the Holocaust), and don’t let them tell you otherwise. The Democrat party is full of Jews who hate themselves and each other and would be happy if Iran burned Israel off the face of the Middle East (as long as their big-dollar donors are not visiting when it happens). This informs left-wing objections to Trump “making it harder” for Iran to do that, along with a handful of other things they hate, like peace and stability. You can’t launder money as easily, and that’s a problem.
I’m not saying Israel doesn’t have a different agenda from ours or that it never works against American interests to its own advantage, or that the Jews who like bad things are better or worse than the non jews doing the same stuff, but everyone does that. South Americans don’t have a monopoly on the drug trade, Italians don’t dominate organized crime, and Muslims aren’t the only terrorists, but sometimes it looks that way, and the internet is very good at making you think it and believe it, whatever it is, including fake moon missions and Jewish global hegemony.
Safe Space
Artemis II launched, went around the moon, broke some records, and splashed down, and there are some amazing pictures of the crew in a studio faking all of it. My first thought was Jews fake moon mission, but like many of the “the Jews are the global cabal controlling everything” narratives, the compunction is human, not Jewish, and there are just as many or more non Jews in the globalist-Marxist cabal which, for the record, would put an end to all religions because regardless of the size of the Communism there can be no greater power.
These would be Jews on a quest to end Judaism, which makes them anti-Jews, and where do we go with that?
To the Moon, Alice, or the studio where they faked it all. And to be fair again, the American government has done a lot of sketchy things, and moon landings and space missions are on the list of maybes, along with hiding alien life, and Jeffrey Epstein is alive, hanging with Elvis on the beach with Ameila Earhardt and Tupac.
Skepticism is good; cynicism can lead to the dark side.
But we have the technology, the will, the desire, and the corporate and National Security self-interest to pillage the moon for resources and find a way to make it cost-effective. Also, human nature.
Moon Stuff
Just ask an AI. Earth’s moon has all sorts of crap we could make use of, some of which is very rare planet-side.
Helium-3 (He-3)
Why Earth needs it: On Earth, He-3 is extremely rare (only ~20-30 kg usable annually, mostly from tritium decay in nuclear stockpiles). It enables aneutronic deuterium-helium-3 fusion: cleaner, safer nuclear power with no long-lived radioactive waste, fewer neutrons (reducing reactor damage), and high efficiency. It’s also critical for emerging quantum computing (cryogenics and dilution refrigerators), medical imaging, and other high-tech uses where demand is surging.
Companies and nations (e.g., China, Russia, India, and U.S. efforts via NASA/DOE) have long eyed it. Extraction involves heating regolith to release the gas, then compressing it for return. While technically challenging and energy-intensive today, prototypes and contracts (e.g., recent U.S. plans) are advancing.
Rare Earth Elements (REEs)
These include the 15 lanthanides plus scandium and yttrium—essential for magnets in EVs/wind turbines, electronics, batteries, lasers, defense systems, and green tech. Lunar REEs occur in KREEP-rich rocks (potassium, REEs, phosphorus), concentrated in areas like the Procellarum KREEP Terrain (near-side maria) and South Pole-Aitken basin.
Water Ice (and Derived Oxygen/Hydrogen)
Permanently shadowed craters at the lunar poles contain water ice (confirmed by multiple missions like LCROSS, LRO, and Chandrayaan). Estimates vary, but significant deposits exist, especially at the south pole (and recent data suggest more at the north).
science.nasa.gov
- Why it matters for Earth: Not a direct “mineral” import (Earth has water), but critical for reducing Earth’s launch costs. Water can be electrolyzed into oxygen (life support/oxidizer) and hydrogen (fuel). This enables propellant depots in space, cheaper deep-space missions, and lunar bases that support Earth’s space economy. It’s foundational ISRU (in-situ resource utilization) for sustainable exploration.
Other Lunar Materials
The lunar regolith (soil) is ~45% oxygen by weight, plus abundant silicon, iron, magnesium, calcium, aluminum, and titanium. These support on-site construction, solar panels, or metal production—but Earth doesn’t “need” them imported, as they’re common here and cheaper to mine terrestrially.
Minor mentions exist of platinum-group metals or uranium/thorium, but evidence is weaker and not a primary driver.
I’m not sure why you would fake space travel or, in the case of Elon Musk, invest vast sums to make getting there not just feasible but economically justifiable, unless you were serious about both mineral wealth and (again, in the case of Musk) colonizing space to secure human life should something happen to the planet we’re on now.
If the Jews can help us do it cheaper and faster, I wouldn’t criticize them or exclude them for that contribution, and yes, they are entitled to make a little profit for their investment risk.
