Jessica Sjostrom Hammett English 1301 Dec. 10, 2017 Neil Armstrong and the Apollo 11 Moon Landing             “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” the infamous words of astronaut, Neil Armstrong, as he first stepped foot on the moon (Armstrong). That one phrase has since started a new found nationally and sense of pride in many Americans. Many children dream of becoming astronauts and accomplishing what Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin accomplished on July 20, 1969 (“Apollo Moon Landing – 35 th Anniversary”). However, this all might be a lie. Some believe NASA faked the moon landing to advance their position in the “space race” with Russia. Let's explore the moon landing and whether it was fake or real, with the most likely solution being that the moon landing was faked so the US could compete with Russia in the “space race”.             Neil Armstrong was ...

  What do you imagine when you hear the words "classified government disease laboratory"? Do you picture a heavily guarded research facility, teeming with dangerous and infectious pathogens and plagued with mysterious motives, or a noble research center where scientist learn to defend the western world against the perils of bioterrorism? These are the opposing views with which the Plum Island Animal Disease Center, or PIADC, is seen. One conspiracy about Plum Island regards it as the birthplace of Lyme Disease, while another claims that it creates deformed creatures through horrific experiments. Although seemingly implausible, the island is regarded by theorists as, “a biological ticking time bomb” (Carroll, 267). It's close proximity to the heavily populated city of Manhattan creates further concern about the center's operations. If there is truth to these sinister rumors, then the PIADC has the potential to do much more harm than good to Americans and people around ...

          Do they really have aliens in Area 51? What is the government hiding from us? Area 51, located in Groom Lake, Nevada. A Military base known for having top secret information that not even the President has knowledge about. According to research we only know, “5% about the ocean, 8% of the Universe, and 0% of Area 51” ("How much of the ocean have we explored?" 1). Aliens are real, it’s only a matter of time and evidence.           There is one person who does lots of research over Area 51, Jeffery T. Richelson. In the middle of the Barren Nevada desert, there's a dusty unmarked road that leads to the front gate of Area 51 (Blitz 1). It's protected by a little more than a chain link fence, a boom gate, and intimidating trespassing signs (1). One would think that America's much mythicized top secret military base would be under closer guard, but make no mistake; They are watching. Beyond the gate, cameras see every angle (1). On t...

            Time is relative . My second can feel like your day , and so on . But , if time is a man-made concept , created to determine how life progresses , is it possible to travel through it ? In other words , can one travel from today to ten years in the past ? What about ten years into the future ? Project Pegasus is a project founded under DARPA ( Defense Advanced Research Project Agency ), in 1968 ( Basiago ). This project is aimed at traveling through time and space . Andrew D . Basiago claims to be a subject of these experiments and went as far as to write a book on his horrifying experiences ( 1 ). Some claims even go as far as putting our current president , Barack Obama , on Mars . As expected , many conspiracies have been developed around these outrageous claims , but many can be dwindled down to two questions : Did it happen ? Or is it all a hoax ?           ...

W ho could murder a young child? This was the question asked when JonBenet Ramsey, a six-year-old beauty pageant queen, was murdered in her own home and found the morning after Christmas day (Death of a Six-Year-Old Beauty Queen) Ramsey was found in her basement that morning with a garrote around her neck, blunt force trauma to her head, with possible signs of sexual abuse and wrapped in a blanket. Ramsey's parents found a ransom note which would have ruled them out as suspects, if not for the little evidence the police found in their media-clouded investigation.   This unusual case drew an enormous amount of media attention and lead the public drawing their own theories as to who killed the young girl. Could JonBenet's own parents have killed her? Or her older brother Burke? Maybe the Santa Claus from the Christmas party the night before? Or, the most likely theory, could the entire family have been involved in JonBenet's murder? Let's examine what could have happened ...
