KAYSING LOOKS FORWARD
TO HIS DAY IN COURT -
By Rich Azar
Billy Kaysing says
he would not be inclined to settle his pending lawsuit against
former astronaut James Lovell because his "goal is to reveal to the American
public that the government lies about important things."
"They lie to us,
they cheat us, and I want to open the lid to Pandora's box," he said in
an early June telephone interview. "I want only to appear in court
without any attorney, on my own in front of a jury, and present my complete
case."
Kaysing, a former
technical writer for Rocketdyne, a California corporation that
worked on rocket engines for the Lunar Module (known as the LEM) which
supposedly landed on the moon six times between 1969-72, and author
of "We Never Went To The Moon" filed a malicious libel suit against
Apollo astronaut James Lovell last August because Lovell called him
a "wacko" in an article which appeared in San Jose's
"Metro Weekly Magazine"
Kaysing had high
praise for the recent video produced by seasoned investigator James
Collier: "Was It Only A Paper Moon?" The video recounts
numerous lingering questions about the moon program, including:
* The apparent physical
impossibility of two astronauts, fully loaded with gear,to enter
and exit the lunar module.
* Analysis of the
shadows supposedly cast on the moon by the astronauts and their equipment,
shadows that many believe do not correspond with the configuration
of the sun and moon during the landings.
* The fact that NASA
never took pictures of the earth from the moon, which skeptics say
would have proven the landings as well as provided earthlings with
startling, inspiring footage.
Skeptics also charge
that the photographs that were taken show no stars. * The apparent inclusion
of "sky-blue"footage taken by astronauts in deep space.
While the video is
a good compendium of the theories that have floated about for some time,
Kaysing says its strongest suit is that Collier "publicly challenges
NASA officials to prove him wrong. A really outstanding aspect
is that he went to Houston and Washington to question NASA officials,
and those personal confrontations are
outstanding."
Kaysing says his
lawsuit and Collier's video are but two of several fronts in which
the moon controversy is being resurrected. A Nashville, Tenn. producer is
currently working on a video but thus far has been unsuccessful in
getting Neil Armstrong to answer some lingering
questions, Kaysing
said.
"The first time he
got turned away, and the second Neil told him if he came back again
he would get arrested." Kaysing said.
"The astronauts themselves
are bring forced into corners by people who want answers to
cogent questions."
