Iran Launches Monkey Into Space
Iran sends monkey into space and returns it to Earth safely
By Press TV
The Islamic Republic of Iran has sent a monkey into space on a suborbital flight and returned it to Earth safely.
On Monday, Iran launched the Kavoshgar Pishgam (Pioneer Discoverer) rocket, which took the primate to an altitude of 120 kilometers.
“In this project, we are sending a live animal, a monkey, into space. This kind of monkey’s physiology is very similar to humans. We are [using] this monkey to test life support systems and flight conditions. The capsule is completely sealed. It is equipped with machines that produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide. All the vital signs will be transmitted to Earth, and cameras inside the cabin will record the event,” Iranian Space Agency Director Hamid Fazeli said.
Iran launched its first domestically manufactured satellite, the Omid (Hope), in 2009. The Islamic Republic sent its first bio-capsule containing living creatures into space in February 2010, using the domestically manufactured Kavoshgar-3 (Explorer-3) carrier.
Iran is one of the 24 founding members of the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, which was set up in 1959.

NASA proves its Apollo hoaxery with another bombshell photo:
The first picture is taken supposedly facing the sun (which actually is a flood-light) with absolute darkness around the sun (because of supposedly absolute vacuum on the moon) yet the shadow side of the LEM which should also be absolutely black (similar to LEM’s shadow) is fully lit & visible to the minutest details!!! What magic photography?
Worse yet: the direct sun hitting the film must burn the film with the sun’s intensity & with the 200+ degree heat!!
Worse yet: because the flood-light (phony sun) is hanging a few yards behind the phony LEM only a few yards of the moon surface is lit. The dark-surface line begins less than 50 years behind LEM!!!

MORE PROOF THAT NO SPACE-CADET EVER TRAVELLED OVER 400 MILES ABOVE EARTH (which is NOT space):
@ Min. 26: 3000 tons mistake: Apollo weighed only around 100 tons at launch
Assassinated astronaut Guss Grissom: @ Min. 28: “How are we going to get to the moon if we can’t talk between three buildings?”
Also: Von Braun & Bill Clinton revealed moon hoaxing. All in:

NASA HoaxNut walks into shadow of LEM and is completely visible as opposed to entering ABSOLUTE DARKNESS:

NASA: an ultimate photo hoax:
visible surfaces in shadow reveal atmospheric light reflection & even fill-in light source:

NASA confesses to its APOLLO HOAX by releasing only a handful of photos (out of millions):
Folks: please copy these individual images to your computers because they will probably disappear quickly. All taken from:
***********http://www.space.com/12030-moon-photos-nasa-lunar-reconnaissance-orbiter.html
Image 4: Doctored moon picture claimed to show Lunar Lander and even tracks of its rover (one foot wide tracks) yet not showing any of the bogus vehicles (notice pic includes a scale):
************http://i.space.com/images/i/000/011/894/i02/apollo17-moon-landing-site-lro-image.jpg
IMAGE 5: crispy shot omits scale because it reveals that orbiter’s camera easily photographed even individual rocks & could have also photographed any Apollo remains up close (but it didn’t because there are none) so it is necessary to conceal orbiter’s camera power by omitting its scale!!!
Another fantastic detail is that nothing is visible within the shadows apparently because of the vacuum on the moon which prevents any reflections as opposed to here on earth where the atmosphere causes widespread reflections. Yet all of Apollos’ photo-shopped pictures show lots of details especially inside shadows. This is one hell of a smoking nuclear bomb against NASA provided by itself after 45 years of continues frauds & cover-ups.

Image 32 : is this the MOON-SPLIT discussed in the Quran 1400 years ago??? Where is the rest of the line???
Hello NASA… can we have those please & the entire album??? It’s not yours… you’ve stolen our money for 65 years to take those pictures & and then you’ve been lying to us with them!!! Do we have to come & get’m at gun point??? & now you’re collecting our guns too so we can’t do that either???…

Outer-space begins after passing the Van Allen Belts (over 40,000. Kilometers from earth) & no earthling has ever passed through it (ie: Apollo hoax)!!!. Very low earth orbit where all astronauts (including Iran’s monkey) have circle the earth is not EARTH-SPACE as it is earth’s orbit.
This NASA hoaxter implies the Apollo hoax in this video:

PS: the monkey is probably a Charles Darwin descendant borrowed from Queen Lizard !!!
And I bet that monkey has a better grasp of scientific issues than most of our policy wonks. Could likely hold a more interesting conversation. Better looking, too.
They’ve just changed policy to put the most recent comments at the top of the article haven’t they Aine ? Seems eminently sensible to me as, when returning for an update on a topic, we don’t have to scroll down 50 comments to the bottom of the page.
I remember when the US had a space program instead of a continual war program.
“The capsule is completely sealed.”
Is this important?
Joking aside, I want to hear something about the explosion at the Iranian nuclear site.
The story started at *******http://www.wnd.com/2013/01/new-details-surface-on-iran-nuclear-explosion/
And I think it is faked.
