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 ...

August 16, 1977, 3:32pm – NEWS FLASH – Elvis Presley, the King of Rock & Roll, has died from an apparent heart attack. And so begins the years of innuendoes, rumors, and conspiracy theories surrounding the death of Elvis Presley. Was it his lifestyle of sex, drugs, and rock & roll or was it the FBI staging his death in order to protect their high-profile Mob family informant. Comments made by Presley’s personal aides to the first responders of a possible drug overdose; plus, the fact that Elvis’ personal physician was the infamous Dr. Nichopoulos well known for freely dispensing copious amounts of narcotics, would certainly point to lifestyle choices (Williamson 1).  Yet, very quickly those closest to Elvis conspired to present an untarnished image of "The King" by taking elaborate steps to further the death by heart attack announcement.  Character analysis Elvis Presley, the “King of Rock and Roll”, was a “lady’s man”.  He was a good looking, charismatic, generou...

            Sound has immense power over emotions. It has the power to evoke feelings of happiness, the power to lull a crying baby to sleep, the power to cause sorrow, and countless other powers. According to Ryan Littlefield, an author who is published by the University of Portsmouth, sound holds such tremendous power that technologically advanced countries secretly use it as a devastating weapon (Littlefield 1). At an infrasonic level, sound can cause insanity, brain damage, and hearing loss. Bobby Fischer, a brilliant chess player born in 1943, suffered from these same symptoms (Biography 1). Bobby’s symptoms appeared around the same time that he challenged Boris Spassky, a Russian chess grandmaster and the world chess champion, for his title (1). Russia did not want an American to steal the title, so they constantly tried to smear Bobby’s name through propaganda. Since propaganda alone did not make him less popular, Russia deci...

What happened to Malaysian Flight 370? On March 8, 2014, a plane took off from Kuala International Airport (Sharp). However, it did not make the ETA. It actually never reached its destination in Beijing. The plane and its passengers disappeared in the middle of the flight. Although they searched exclusively for months, they found next to nothing on an alibi for that flight (Karimi). They called off the search in January of 2017 (1). Since the day the plane went missing, several conspiracy theories surfaced: a fire in the cockpit led the captain to turn west and the plane flew until it ran out of fuel, Russian special ops hijacked the plane, or the captain, Zarahie Shah, committed a mass murder-suicide (Golson). This paper will examine the evidence behind each theory and the possibility that the pilot of the plane flew a crazy suicide mission.     As an experienced Boeing 777 captain, Zarahie Shah knew the Asian air routes proficiently (“Who are…”). He was a 53-year-old veter...

Anastasia Romanov was the youngest Grand Duchess of Russia. She was born in Petrodvorets, Russia. She was fun, carefree, and would always play pranks on her family. Not quite the characteristics of a royal; but underneath her title, she was simply a seventeen-year-old girl. Sadly, this princess did not have a happy ending. Anastasia was brutally murdered, along with her entire family. There are theories that she escaped, given the fact that her body was not found until almost a hundred years after her murder. Even then, could that have really been her body? Or could she have escaped and lived her life to the fullest after the Romanov’s murder?             As a young child, Anastasia was vivacious and energetic, described as short and inclined to be chubby, with blue eyes, and strawberry blonde hair (Massie). Anastasia began her academic schooling as soon as her mother saw her fit of understanding. She taught Anastasia spelling and w...
