"Earthlight" is the novel, what Arthur C. Clarke wrote in 1955, and it is the very futuristic story about the war between the Earth and it's colonies. The book is full of technical things, like the train, what travels on the surface of the moon. This fictional moon train is a quite conventional electric train, what is modified as the space capsule, and it would travel to the station, and then the airlocks would be connected to that system, what allows people to travel on the surface of the Moon. The combat systems that are used in this book, are the probably triangle-shape spacecraft, what have thrust to every side of those vehicles, and that would make those ships, what fictional colony would be used capable to fly like some UFO.


Because the war between colonies, what are known as "Federals" is expected, the Moonbase must be defended, and the defense is the thing, what is prepared almost all of the book. The defense of that base bases the magnetic cannon, what would pump meted iron straight to those targeted spacecraft. The book is actually the story about preparing the war, and how the colonies spies would be searched from the Moonbase. In the last chapter, Clarke wrote that the peace treaty would be made under the control of the Moon, and in this case, I would tell that in the real life, would the Moon be acting in the control of Earth.


There would be many things, what the Moon needs from Earth, and one of them is clothes and the second thing, what Clarke forgot, is that the Moon would be targetted the nuclear weapons from the Earth, or there could be powerful, but an unseen radiological weapon, what could destroy entire Moon in seconds. That fictional weapon could be an actually radiological weapon, and it can be actually misused radio telescope. The thing could be tested in some weapon tests, where are trying to create the protective shield, by using electric arcs.


Those radio telescopes would be synchronized in the same frequency, and then their radiation would be targeted to the heart or center point of the Moon, and this means, that the Moon would be destroyed immediately when the Earth wants. The warming of the center of the Moon with extremely powerful electric arcs could cause the expansion of the nucleus of the Moon, and that would crash entire planet. This is the thing, what this master of science fiction might be thought, when he wrote that novel, that feels so timeless even today.

Writing about Science fiction

Many people think that there is harmless texts on the world. Some of the most harmless is mentioned be science fiction stories. Those texts are mentioned to be coming straight from the writer's imagination. But the persons who tell that are always forgotten, that every single invention in the world is the reason for the imagination of the inventor. We don't want to believe any secret experiments or eugenics. But when we are thinking that somebody wants to make "superhumans" might this person want to destroy weak genomes from the individuals.



The most suitable way to make that is use radioactive radiation for that purpose. High level of radiation can use as the scary element, what can keep people out from that area. But there is one possibility for keeping the radiation in high level. And that is cutting the individuals, who have weak genomes from the system. But this kind of things is so-called marginal Sci-Fi what means sometimes horror-style science fiction what means that monsters are creating by human experiments. Same style texts are made by some notorious human behavior experiments.



The source of those stories is the case, where psychologist named Watson taught a child, that teddy-bears are frightened creature. He used loud voice, when this psychologist shows a teddy bear to the child, what was called as "Albert", and that test was made in 1920, and some rumors are that this child was named "Josef", and he became infamous doctor Mengele, the "Angel of Death" of Auschwitz-Birkenau. This experiment was proved that people would make do anything by using this kind of methodology. This horrifying experiment made people think that behind some of the most notorious crimes is the person, who is the victim of that kind of experiments or unqualified medical personnel.



The "Case Albert" were brought to my mind one very disturbing idea: what if somebody might make this test by claiming that fear was made by some jew, and could somebody make that kind of experiment to Adolph Hitler? This could explain his fanatic hate against Jews. The experiments like "Case Albert" were justified in many societies, but it brought the mind of the people one question: what has been done in the institutes, what was in the middle of the forests. We must ask also what those medical experiments made with children who were not met their parents? The horror stories are sometimes written by keeping some areas clean by people, who would not want to see, what was happen in those areas.



One of the most attractive Sci-Fi-horror film what I have seen is "Capricorn one", where NASA hides secret, that it's flight to Mars is happening in the studio. Then the capsule destroyed during the landing, and those persons who were working as the "film stars" become the problem for the men, who are behind this thing. Then those persons made the decision, that those persons must die. And after that, they must hide the killers of the government. The story is actually the copy of the old theory, that NASA  made some moonwalks in the studio. The original conspiracy theory about faked moon trips was the rumor that only one or two of those moon trips were made in the studio, and another of those capsules were Apollo 13, but there is no evidence of that.



The Space suits are very useful in the deep space operations, and they could use in the kilometers deep.  In the claiming of "hoax moonwalk" the site where that operation happened was in the bottom of Ocean. The reason for those "studio flights" have been explained that NASA transferred money for "black budget aircraft projects". But somebody claims that NASA would tell more lies about the technology, what has been used in their Moon projects. One claim was that in the chamber of rocket motors were installed the electric-dynamic motor, what was series of opposite rotating magnets.



That system is actually known as "Die Glocke", or maybe there was electric arc equipment inside the burning chamber. The electric rocket motors like ion rockets would not need nuclear reactors for working. They can equip with generators, what is connected to the pumping system of the rocket, and they can give enough electricity that those rockets can fly in empty space by enormous speed if that would be compiled with the speed what normal rocket can take.
