this episode of the Y files is brought to you by delete me in 1957 a small metal sphere blinks its way across the night sky Sputnik the first human-made satellite marked the beginning of the Space Age the American public was terrified the US government responded by creating NASA in 1958 NASA presented itself as a civilian agency focused on science and exploration the truth was different NASA had one Mission beat the Soviets to the Moon they planned three stages to reach that goal Mercury Gemini and Apollo Mercury proved Americans could survive in space Gemini showed they
could work outside their spacecraft then came Apollo 20 missions designed to land humans on the moon Apollo succeeded Neil Armstrong stepped onto lunar soil in 1969 that was Apollo 11 Apollo 12 followed Apollo 13 famously had a problem but Apollo 14 15 16 and 17 were also successful moon landings had become routine then suddenly in 1973 Apollo was shut down with three missions to go budget cuts at least that's what we were told but there is another theory that Apollo 18 19 and 20 weren't cancelled they were carried out in secret and were successful and
there's footage to prove it but it's not footage of a moon landing in 1973 NASA landed on Mars [Music] yeah human thank goodness I need your help my life is in Jeopardy did you get into the blus again no the aliens bog guarded my blers at my house party last week you mean last week at my house that's why there was a weird staying on the carpet relax I told you sprinkle juice rubs out with club soda you sprinkle juice look I don't even want you you are missing the point so there I was just

as soon as World War II ended America struck first launching fruit flies on a V2 rocket to study radiation's effects on living organisms oh the had the V2 designed by waron BR yes did you know that Von Bri was a Nazi who joined the SS won two medals and attained the rank of major yes I knew that oh did you know where Von bran Rockets were built using slave labor from concentration camps yes the Rockets killed 9,000 civilians in London but 20,000 prisoners died building the rackets multiple survivors said Von BR ordered this though he
denied it I know but when Von Brown agreed to work for the United States under Operation Paperclip his war crimes were forgiven he became the first director of NASA's flight center okay that's all true but every time we talk about Von Bron are you going to bring up the Nazi stuff every time okay let's every time fine cool by the way Von Brown got a long Rel well at Walt Disney what does that have to do with anything a few people out there know what I'm talking about the Soviets launched Sputnik in 1957 it was
their first victory in Space over the United States but not their last both Nations poured billions into the space programs to the American public the space race was about technological superiority landing on the moon became the Ultimate Prize but behind this public competition something else was happening the US and Soviet Union were working together in secret and their goal wasn't the Moon it was to establish a human Colony on Mars they called it project Reds Sun the project was inspired by earlier plants specifically project Horizon proposed in 1959 Horizon was a plan to put a
nuclear armed military base on the moon a lunar base would give America unmatched military power over the entire planet the Soviets would be defenseless this station is now the ultimate power in the universe I suggest we use it but as nuclear arsenals grew both sides realized a war would destroy Humanity so they created a backup plan if nuclear war or natural disaster threatened Earth the human race would continue on Mars getting there wouldn't be easy the Moon is 239,000 MI away a 3-day Journey Mars is a different story its distance from Earth varies between 34
million and 250 million miles as both planets orbit the sun America had the Saturn 5 the only rocket powerful enough for the journey the Soviets had better Safety Systems and life support technology designed for Extended space travel the trip to Mars would take 6 months alone neither side could do it but together Mars was Within Reach on March 23rd from a secret facility deep in the Amazon jungle the most powerful rocket in the world was launched hang on what why are they launching Rockets from the jungle well NATO and Warsaw packed Nations tracked every launch
from the US Europe and Asia but a rocket lifting off from Brazil in the southern hemisphere no one would notice that rocket carried Humanity's most advanced spacecraft the interplanetary space vehicle or isv Columbus its crew included two Americans Neil Armstrong and balron and Soviet cosmina Vladimir uian Columbus touched down on Mars 158 days later the crew documented everything they saw their logs films and video recordings went straight to NASA's classified archives the public could know about project redson so why hide Mankind's greatest achievement because once the crew landed on Mars it didn't take them long
to realize they weren't alone [Music] in 2011 Italian journalist Lucas kenten Boro held a press conference to announce that project redson was real he had witnessed statements from Project redson workers emails documents but that wasn't the big reveal at the bottom of his statement was a photograph that silenced the room a grainy image of Buzz Aldren Walking on Mars when it comes to Mars Buzz gets exced excited and that's when he lets Secrets slip fly by the Comets visit asteroids visit the moon of Mars there's a monolith there a very unusual structure on this little
potato shaped object that that goes around Mars once in 7 hours when people find out about that they're going to say who put that there who put that there now maybe Aldren only saw images of the monolith but other astronauts dro similar hints Jean cernon was the last person to walk on the moon he spoke about going back to Mars Buzz does want to go back to Mars and I I support that but I I believe we should do it in a logic logical stepping stone process okay maybe he misspoke but a minute later he
said it again good to talk to you thanks what John can I just say one other real quick thing you know I'm not going to be there when we go back to the moon on of Mars and and it may not be this president or those who follow scanton Boro had more a whistleblower he called Bravo X Sierra 24 smuggle photographs out of NASA's archives I introduced to you a press relase testimony I have written to discuss the presumed existence of a hush hush military space program called project Red Sun carried out in the 1970s
of the last century to build a stationary base on M Mars the red planet my source of information named by me Bravo X Sierra 24 contacted me by email it is possible to reproduce the pages of the press release and the picture presented here as well the images are blurry but unmistakable astronauts collecting samples on rust colored terrain a temporary habitat a Rover one photo shows astronauts examining an artificial object in a crater behind them stands a pyramid reminiscent of ancient South American Structures NASA denied everything of course they did never a straight answer the
denials made sense the photos are terrible but scanton burow wasn't finished as word of project redson spread more whistleblowers emerged and now he had evidence of a 1973 Mars mission actual video footage now to be honest a lot of people have requested I cover project redson but a press release and some blurry orange photos didn't sound like much of a story to me then someone sent me the video and I was hooked the footage opens with NASA's logo and an internal use only warning a title card appears welcome to isv Columbus date 1973 the next
shot shows Earth through a spacecraft window holy then quick shots of the astronauts aboard another card marks day 10 of their Journey Earth and the moon drift past the windows at 1 minute 7 Seconds the shot reveals they've traveled much farther from the earth day 100 more glimpses of the crew Beyond those early views and brief interior shots we don't see very much but then at 1 minute 46 seconds we're at day 158 they should be close to Mars an astronaut moves past the camera a reddish blur crosses is the frame wa wa wait was
that Ms did they really show Ms on this thing they do we're only halfway through the film and you're not going to believe How It Ends the Columbus Journey lasted 158 days Soviet life support systems and radiation Shields kept the crew alive along with experimental Technologies inspired by project Horizon the crew cre logged everything they saw years later their records leaked then came the film Columbus approaches the red planet holy sh I know and watch your M sorry sorry this this is unbelievable oh just wait as we get closer we can see Mars's features more
and more clearly at 206 the planet's terrain fills the windows some quick Cruise shots then the camera captures col Columbus's exterior below is valis marinaras the image finally focuses as we Zoom toward the canyon at [Music] 259 at 312 Mars's surface appears in stunning detail more surface features a little more inside the ship and then this amazing view of Victoria crater a few more shots of the crew then we begin The Descent to the surface no I'm going to need my glasses yeah the Apollo missions had this problem too the astronauts took actual film so
the images are pretty clear but the external cameras were television cameras recording video so they're not good at all still we can get a sense of the landscape and the speed finally The Landing module touches down but look closely what the hell is that I don't know but it's not wind something is definitely moving down there it looks like it's under the surface ah shude they're the sandw worms from dude I know what they are anyway the video ends there NASA continued to deny project redson sure the film could be fake the photos could be
fake but NASA fakes photos in film too nobody knew who to trust then came the bombshell a new witness steep forward Not only was he part of project redon he said it was still operational and had been to Mars that year and he brought video to prove it Secrets Don't Stay buried forever especially something as big as a hidden Mission to Mars decades after project red Sun's supposed Landing insiders began talking Jackie a retired NASA employee called into the Coast to Coast radio show oh that fell George Nory oh Jackie described watching a viking Landers
live feed from Mars in 1979 the camera captured two men in protective suits walking toward the Lander but they came over the horizon walking towards the uh uh Viking Explorer and uh our vision got cut off I didn't see what they did with it or anything else they were probably making repairs Jackie said there were six other Witnesses watching the feed with her NASA cut the feed when they realized their mistake Jackie said the Viking program wasn't searching for Life on Mars it was covering up missions already there William rutage came forward in 2007 the
retired astronaut claimed he flew on the isv Columbus and ISB Melbourne he said Apollo 19 and 20 continued in secret their missions were to retrieve alien technology from both the moon and Mars rutage described finding alien tools spacecraft pieces even a oberved body we covered Apollo 20 in another episode it's one of my favorites and if you've never seen it you're not going to believe the photos Apollo 20 video down here in your chatot according to rutl NASA and the Department of Defense launched several man missions to Mars through project redson some as recent as
2011 and here's video from that mission a distant shot of Earth then we get closer to Mars you can see the color is much better now here's a shot of the astronauts there's Mars out the window as we get closer now the video becomes spectacular through the window we can see Martian terrain very clearly holy sh I know and what I tell you sorry sorry sorry go ahead that video and the testimony of Jackie and William rutage aligned perfectly with records leaked by another whistleblower Gary McKinnon Gary is a Scottish computer engineer and he accessed
Pentagon and NASA systems in 2002 you'll hear it reported that Gary hacked into NASA he didn't he scanned their networks and found computers that had weak passwords or no passwords at all he said he was looking for evidence of UFOs but he stumbled onto something bigger a spreadsheet labeled non-terrestrial officers and a list of navy ships that don't appear in any official registry we go into all the details in our Solar Warden episode which is about America's Secret Space Program link to solar Warden [Music] down physicist Dr John brandenberg has a theory that an ancient
Martian civilization was destroyed by a nuclear attack from an alien race he believes NASA is hiding evidence of this ancient conflict his theory is grounded in science and we explored this in the face on Mars episode link is it's below NASA dismisses these stor with vague denials whistleblowers are branded disgruntled or untrustworthy it's a common tactic raise questions about their credentials question their motives and watch the media mock their claims but if these claims are fantasy why Monitor and intimidate whistleblowers there are a disturbing number of cases where whistleblowers report being followed by what we'd
call Men In Black and soon after they end up in fatal car crashes or have heart attacks are all these cases a Co incidence nope it's murder murder most foul it sure seems that [Music] way but those are pretty aggressive measures to protect a fantasy denials will only work for so long for every whistleblower that's silenced another emerges with more details they can't suppress them all not with Stakes this high if project Red Sun is real it's Humanity's greatest achievement it doesn't belong to a select few Gatekeepers it belongs to all of us we own
the information we're not going to learn the truth by asking for permission we have to demand it the story of project Red Sun is a frustrating one like I said earlier lots of people asked me to cover this but the images were so bad I didn't think it was worth it the story is obviously fake but then someone sent me the video which got me interested then started researching and saw there might be something to the story after all but first let's dismantle the hoaxes yes both videos are fake frame one the NASA logo fine
but look at the pixelation now the warning the text is crisper this is an edit we're not off to a good start this shot of Earth was taken from Apollo 8 rotated and blurred I was going to use fake images of a fake moon mission to make a fake video about a fake Mars mission can we just focus on this for Now link the fake moon landing episode down in your Chum Bucket Bill Anders Apollo 8 here's the Earth Moon system from space scale is all wrong but the scale is right in this shot that
was taken from the Mars reconnaissance Orbiter mission in 2022 Jean cernon Apollo 17 more Apollo 17 but the shots are taken out of order day 158 Mars approach wait Edgar Mitchell Apollo 14 that's from the Mars Global surveyor mission in 1999 blurred and brightened to wash out the Color Oops film sprocket holes are supposed to be on the left and right side not top and bottom more Apollo 14 Global surveyor again now we can match up the features I love this one that's from a photo of the so tm33 stocking with the International Space Station
on October 23rd 2001 but the soy was pulled out the original was from Wikipedia comments Martian North polarized cap 1999 lifted directly from Wikipedia Destiny module 2001 Apollo 14 and then this amazing shot of Victoria crater taken from Wikipedia and before landing we have this perfect shot from Apollo 7 and here's the Mars Landing this is from the movie alternative 3 released in 1977 as far as fakes go I thought it was pretty good the original fake was created by someone named the faking hoaxer and you could see his watermark on the video but most
people post his video cropped in without the watermark and most versions have the Apollo footage removed so it's not quite so obvious well this has been thoroughly disappointing sorry now I can't debunk the entire story of project Reds Sun but I can shred that second video oh no Jean cernon Apollo 17 some images from Lucas kentam boro's report most of these are also Apollo 17 this one is obviously out of place it's from the BBC documentary exploring Mars the same Mars surveyor photo from before but this time the color is more visible Mariner 7 mission
Edition 40 in the summer of 2014 astronauts Steve Swanson and Reed Weissman on the ISS this is a good one you can tell this is the ISS from the windows here's how they did it grab an image from the ISS and pull it into after effects or some kind of video editor mask out the window throw some orange behind it crank up the contrast dirty up the windows make everything just a bit blurry I know my version isn't perfect but I did that in about 8 minutes and if you look at the hoaxed video you
can see they were just as sloppy with the mask as I was the edges aren't round that's someone who doesn't know their way around a beer tool be what now bezier it's the tool that lets you draw curves then call it a curve drawing tool a best sounds elitist it's French exactly [Music] these shots are nice too they're from the European Space Agency we've got the Yanni chaos region the Corral is chaos uh why they call these areas chaos because they're chaotic that's it that's it I was hoping for something more uh out of space
he sounded how about this this is Cassie valis and sacrif Cass is the Japanese word for Mars it literally means firear vales is Latin for valleys and Sacra means sacred or holy f is plural for the word FAA in Latin which means ditch so Sacra FASA means holy ditch basically yeah now we're talking another area of cie balis and the video ends so both videos are thoroughly debunked let me ask you how long did it take you to find all those shots there boyo it took me well over a 100 hours of searching Apollo footage
and images from every Space Program in Mars mission going back to the 1960s yeah and you wonder why you burn out I don't wonder that you spent two weeks working on four minutes episode yeah it's called commitment it's called OCD I can't argue with that tow so so the videos are definitely fake as for Jackie from NASA I couldn't confirm anything about her story she didn't sound like a scientist to me but who knows she might be telling the truth William rutage is considered debunked there's no record of him being an astronaut and it's not
like there are that many astronauts they're records of all of them yeah not if they're secret astronauts that's true and that's what rutage says there's no record of him because it's classified which brings us to Gary McKinnon he says that he found proof of a secret space program and I believe him um it was an Excel spreadsheet and um there was a m terrestrial officers list and I can't remember the file L the spreadsheet but the heading on the column was non- terest in officers um obviously it wasn't aliens it wasn't you know little green
man um I took it to just it must the evidence of a an offer Fleet you know if you have one terestrial officers you must have spens that Bas maybe G or bits who knows now I don't know if there really is a secret space program but I believe Gary found something and whatever he found was so sensitive that President Obama the dod And the doj tried to have him extradited to the US they wanted to put him in prison for 70 years for accessing computers with no password how was this on him the charges
filed against Gary say that he wasn't authorized to access those systems the charges failed to mention that NASA and the dod were sloppy with their network security that's one of the reasons why the UK didn't allow the extradition he will not be going to the United States anytime soon here here G Save the Queen pip pip yeah that was a pretty big deal the United States isn't used to hearing no and I trust that this will get resolved in a way that uh underscores the seriousness of the issue the Coalition came into power they blocked
the Expedition but also underscores the fact that uh we work together and uh we can find a an appropriate solution he will not be going to the United States anytime soon now what doesn't help the story is that movie I showed you before alternative 3 that aired in 1977 as a mockumentary about a secret space program to Mars by Apollo Astronauts in coordination with the Soviets we obtained an acceptable picture which are now about to see as we saw it and when it aired people thought it was real and project redson seems to follow along
with that plot almost exactly so some of the evidence of project Reds Sun can be dismissed but not all of it a lot of project Reds Sun's claims were later proven to be true like there was once water on Mars lots of it tonight for the future of everything we're going back three billion years into the past picture Mars as a world with water according to NASA oceans covered as much as 20% of the red planet and the documents leak to scanton Boro have coordinates that overlap with Rover Landing sites now if I were a
conspiracy theorist right if I were one of those I would be suspicious it's almost as if NASA is carefully managing the flow of information and expectations about Mars exploration now I don't think it's a coincidence that this is happening at the same time that space exploration is becoming privatized and if you warm Mars up you will um there's a bunch of Frozen CO2 that will evaporate dense by the atmosphere and um get your ass to pass you'd actually want kind of global warming on Mars as companies like SpaceX and blue origin head toward Mars they'll
operate with less public oversight than government agencies oh you you know that if Elon Musk lands on Mars he's going to tell us what he finds the US government doesn't want Elon exposing them for lying to the public you mean exposing them for lying to the public again right so while SpaceX prepares to go to Mars NASA can slowly release more and more information so that by the time SpaceX gets there there are no more surprises and NASA's probably okay with this Elon thinks he'll be making history by Landing human beings on Mars but it
may very well turn out that all he did was create the perfect cover for a classified space program that truly never ended thank you so much for hanging out today my name is AJ that's hle fish he instant mergatroid this has been the wi files you fun or learned anything do him a favor subscribe like comment share that stuff really helps us out and like most topics we cover on the channel today's was recommended by you by lots of you so if there's a story you'd like to see or learn more about go to the
