lol - anyone remember "Mutineer's Moon" from one of David Weber's old novels where the moon was revealed to be a powered down battleship from a long dead empire - a lonely sentinel stationed along a forgotten frontier standing watch against a xenophobic race keen to eradicate potential competitors. Fun series if you're looking for some lighter adventure... and can find them in print.
@@ronjon7942 Should also consider the Starfire series by david weber and steve white its also a good read. Start with "Crusade" very good fleet battles & some ground fighting. Gets really good with "In death ground". While written first "Insurrection" should be read after "The Shiva option" since that's the in-universe timeline order. Only downside is these novels refer to events that happen in tabletop game lore no novels have been written about those events.
Just some nerdy trivia... the Richter Scale has largely been replaced by the Moment Magnitude Scale but most people still erroneously say Richter Scale. Since the seismic tests on the moon were in 1972 this is one of the few places calling it the Richter Scale is probably accurate, since the Moment Magnitude Scale didn't replace it till 1979 according to wikipedia. A Caveat: Although measurements are generally always taken in Moment Magnitude, sometimes people will convert it to the Richter Scale for distribution to the general public even though it's technically deprecated.
Great video! Strangely this is not the first video about this subject I've seen recently. There was another which goes a bit deeper from a channel called The Why Files. It's a channel which is broken into two halves where he first explains the conspiracy and then tries to debunk it. In this case though he couldn't actually disprove the conspiracy and actually ended up with more questions than answers. Like the explanations for how the moon actually came to orbit the earth in the first place. The accepted collision theory according to him doesn't make sense as both the earth and the moon don't share any of the same geology. In fact the rocks and matter collected on the moon are older than anything on earth. It is fascinating, but still... no I don't think the earth is hollow or an alien structure.
It could be that “making sense” isn't a criterion in science. Water having the highest density at 4 °C doesn't make sense either. Until you go deeper. Often a lack of understanding, knowledge or poor deduction skills can lead you to a path of confusion where the only way out is forming a narrative that removes it, whatever it takes, so it subjectively starts making sense. Many Pop Sci channels are prone to walking that path, so your eyes remain well-oiled from the constant rolling. The ages are different because the moon is basically just a big chunk of rock that only had to deal with impacts after its creation, whereas Earth has tectonic plates, which act as recyclers even today, water, and erosion forces. It's entirely possible that if you could dig deeper into the Earth, you would also find ancient matter. When solid bodies cool, the more heavy elements sink first and the lithophile element stick to the top, then there are also siderophile elements like tungsten.
The earth has active tectonic plates. The crust is effectively recycled every few billion years. The moon is effectively a static snapshot. That's why the rocks are older on the moon.

Most of the conspiracies about fake space comes from fundamental religious beliefs that there's a firmament above us. I have some religious family members that believes that lol 😆
@@WiegrafFolles Magnetic fields are not objects, they can be created by objects and interacted with by other objects without these needing to touch each other. The fields are also useful for creating forces that move several machines that help us on our daily lives. We can also measure the Magnetic fields of objects far away proving it's not a phenomenon exclusive to Earth. Eventually the evidence was great enough that humans decided to accept Magnetism instead of being picky morons. Any hollow celestial body, on the other hand, cannot be created or interacted with, or studied or even found, because it would go against many principles that we have much more evidence of their existence. So we decided to not waste any more time on these unreasonable ideas because we're, again, not morons. Hope I said it in a way you'll understand.

Once we put something in orbit around the Moon we knew the mass of the Moon with high accuracy. We also know the size of the Moon so we know the average density with high accuracy. 9:03 "The Moon is less dense with a smaller iron core." This implies that the mass is smaller too and I have a hard time believing that.
So, what is the explanation for the shallow larger craters? Why the comrades noted it isn't really important, if it's genuinely anomalous. Also, have we found anything close to the our Moon yet anywhere else in terms of all the size-distance ratios or the fullness of eclipses? If a moon like ours is important for the stabilization of biosphere, for example, an advanced alien civilization could have built it for that purpose (and made it look like a natural object) or nudged it into its orbit as part of some sort of terraforming operation.
Moon is hollow. Not only Zulu tribe speak of time when there was no Moon in orbit but also numerous greek sources. The Great flood might just be a product of bringing Moon into Lagrange point which could have caused solar flair and huge tides on the planet.
There is a Soviet sci fi story by Vladimir Mikhailov about Phobos and Deimos, the moons of Mars, being alien starships and Arthur Clarke puts an alien ship in orbit around Jupiter. As science fiction they are quite interesting.
I don't understand much but I could believe that there could be underground bases on the moon but if the whole Moon was hollow, wouldn't the gravitational effects on the ocean be a LOT weaker?
They also left laser reflectors that still function. These really give moon landing deniers the ass, because anybody with a little gear can bounce light from the moon.
@@thomasbell7033 The laser reflectors are just mirrors and since there is no atmosphere on the moon, they only get dust on them if a meteor hits near it and kicks dust up. So the laser reflectors are passive and would work for a long time until something hits the moon near them. Also not anybody with little gear can't bounce light off them really. It takes a lot more gear than just someone in their backyard. Observatories around the globe can and measuring the light pulses sent, bounced off and return, can determine very accurately the distance.
@@MrT------5743 Thank you for providing some reason and clarity to my rather glib remark. Indeed, after I posted it, I wondered about the matter of dust on these mirrors, recalling the dust on the solar-power panels on Martian exploration rigs, so thanks. And no, kids with laser pointers from Wal-Mart can't get a reflection from the moon.
@@thomasbell7033 Mars has an atmosphere, where the moon is considered to not have one. So dust does move around on Mars where the moon it does not. It would probably cost a million dollars to be able to bounce lasers off the reflectors and detect the return.
@@MrT------5743 given that some guys easily spend on the order of 10,000 on an expensive hobby (just google RC jet for instance), a dozen of these guys could afford to do it as a "club project" - a million dollar project may be out of reach for the average person, but it is not _that_ out of reach

Dude, you didn't need to waste time on a video, I could have just explained this for you. It's a little complicated, but hang with me: You have to begin in the US, in southern California, take a high-resolution photo of the moon. Then travel to Washington and take another one. Now you need to get to Texas, no matter which route you use, you should pass through at least 4 other states, you don't need a photo in each one but the more you have the better. At this point you may start to notice something about the photos, but resist the urge to examine them for now. This is where the trip gets really tricky, From Texas, hit Oklahoma, then you have a choice: hit every state to Florida, or every state to Maine. Now you can begin studying the photos. Look closely at the Sea of Tranquility and some of the smaller craters, notice how there is a tiny difference in shadow during different phases of the moon? See how even though YOU took every picture with your OWN camera, but somehow the moon is different colors in some of the pictures! And sometimes it's even freaking smaller!!! Lightbulbs in your house don't change size and color randomly, so WTF man???!!! Wait, wait... whose voice was that in your head just now... then you remember, it was that crazy sombich you met out west. Now that you think about it, you realize you've heard similar things from people in several states. This has to be a coincidense right? But what if that fat lady in Alabama was right and there's no such thing as coincidense? "Snap out of it, this is stupid!" you tell yourself, "what does she know, she misspelled coincidence twice!" But it's too late, the floodgate of your mind is open and you realize you've been trying to ignore a wave of beer-scented conversations you suffered nearly every time somebody saw you taking photos. A sudden understanding washes over you and you whisper to yourself, "Holy #%@&, people are &#$%ing stupid." Unfortunately, the seed of conspiracy is planted. However, you can protect yourself with a little self-medication and it's very easy. Simply pick up a book, flip to a random page and read it. Now think about what you just read, was it interesting, did you enjoy it? You see, most of those people can't read and the few who can often suffer physical pain from it. Sometimes the stupid can be bad enough that you may need to read multiple pages, or a whole chapter. I paid attention to politics once, jesus, I had to read an entire book... if only Sam knew the value those eggs would have today.
I agree 💯.... But even if it had been discovered to be hollow/artificially created, you think they’d tell us? Hell no, just discredit anybody that gets close with a theory, then feed more bullsh1t to the masses to keep them quiet.... 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
Strange that the moon surface has been found to contain U236, which is only a man-made element on earth, I understand. (Does anybody dispute it is not naturally occurring on earth?) Strange, too, the recent discovery of Changesite-(Y), which also does not exist naturally on our planet, unless I misunderstood China's news reports after their recent mission to our oversized satellite, Luna. Anyway, the later mineral is said to be a promising resource as a fuel for nuclear fusion. How convenient, as The Church Lady said on SNL.
I did not know about all those experiments on the moon, great work. makes sense to use the kinetic force of the module to poke it, and then observe genius. Those guys on Nasa in the 60 70 were cream of the cream really.. Also hats off to the russkies that accomplished a lot under WAY more pressure.
I don't know about less pressure but sure as hell less concern for human life. Hey comrades don't sit back there sit up here by the big wig and die like men.
Both rotate in synchronicity. This is likely because of the moon’s origin, a minor planet sized object striking the earth and the resulting spin imparted to both body’s has endured since that time has remained locked in this synchronicity.
@@Greendragon420able I could be wrong but I think it's more that a planet hit proto earth and the moon is the debris from that impact yes? Moon and earth rock show the exact same chemical signature.
Earth is a sphere and the moon goes around the earth, it is tidally locked with the earth with one face always pointing towards the earth. That's why everyone on earth always sees the same face of the moon.
Why do you use the phrase conspiracy theory? A term born from the CIA to discredit… Lately, most conspiracy theories have been proven to be spoiler alerts, who’d have thought that 😂
Are you aware that AI models only work when previously being fed with validated data? You can not just vomit data into a neural network and expect it to have any explanatory power. This is a job for simulation using the finite element method.
Whilst the Moon is not hollow, the large caverns and lava tubes known to exist under the surface offer the perfect place to establish a Lunar base. They give protection from both radiation and micro meteorites.
Yes, and the deepest lava tubes reach down to the hollow space. The crazy thing is that an astronaut can crawl into that empty space and can stand up and walk around on the inner surface because the gravity pulls them upwards towards the inner surface. People had to accept that gravity is different than people had always assumed.
That doesn’t mean such a time existed. I could see a mythology growing up that gets passed around that there was such a time even though no one actually experienced it.
I've heard that there are old stories of a time before the Moon was in the sky, stories about how it arrived here. I always wondered what that was about.
I really wanted to believe the hollow moon theory! It makes a great story. Unfortunately I paid attention in science, and science makes sense. There are so many things that wouldn't be how they are if the moon could be hollow. Our universe never would have happened.
well it is filled with liquid, just like earth. gravitationally, the moon experiences even greater tides, forcing all the water to the earth-facing side. that's why we only see one side of the moon. the moon is 1/3rd the mass of earth and it got 1/3rd of all earth's water, too, and gold and magma. if the moon lost all that water then it would be hollow, best way to find out is to dig.
They're looking for the man who paints the bits no one sees. The dark side of the moon's not dark and once was topped with Alien Cheese. Till some thing"s" by a distant star thought 'That'll do. We’ll eat that now.' . The thought, a flash, the deed was done . And when They’d only left a crumb and thought out blind '' We can't leave that nor show the fact we've left a crack. ".

I recall listening to BBC news at the time when the first ascent module was crashed into the moon in the early 70s and it said the moon had rang like a bell and could be hollow, that was back then . I wonder whether Clive Neil’s comments, his choice of words, could have been directly referencing these earlier statements
@@Agarwaen I can assure you that this did happen and the BBC if not getting it live simply passed on what NASA told them even if it was a day or so after the event.
Another simply wonderful show. In regards to "ringing like a bell"- as an instrument maker, I'd just add that if the Moon were hollow, it would almost certainly ring for much longer than ten minutes after larger impacts, and that the frequency of the ringing would be much slower. Lunch is on me if you're ever in town. Cheers from cloudy Vienna, Scott
Exactly! We know the Moon's mass based on its gravity. When calculating its density based on its mass and volume, the result is 3.344 g/cm³, which is higher than most types of solid rock.
Buster Bloodvessel found his niche as an expert on the composition of the moon. That figures. I like these conspiracy theories. There are so many astronauts who got freaked out by their experiences there.
I read the comment in the newspaper ( people actually READ back then ) about the impact causing it to "ring like a bell ... for ~45 minutes" when I was in High School in the 70's . That's a LONG TIME before the 2005 statement !

Fun series if you're looking for some lighter adventure... and can find them in print.

I could use a good read, thnx! Old scifi is the best.
@@ronjon7942 Should also consider the Starfire series by david weber and steve white its also a good read.
Start with "Crusade" very good fleet battles & some ground fighting. Gets really good with "In death ground". While written first "Insurrection" should be read after "The Shiva option" since that's the in-universe timeline order. Only downside is these novels refer to events that happen in tabletop game lore no novels have been written about those events.
I love that “atheist” was supposed to be an insult when there’s more evidence for a hollow moon than their is a god lmao
Just some nerdy trivia... the Richter Scale has largely been replaced by the Moment Magnitude Scale but most people still erroneously say Richter Scale.
Since the seismic tests on the moon were in 1972 this is one of the few places calling it the Richter Scale is probably accurate, since the Moment Magnitude Scale didn't replace it till 1979 according to wikipedia.
A Caveat: Although measurements are generally always taken in Moment Magnitude, sometimes people will convert it to the Richter Scale for distribution to the general public even though it's technically deprecated.
They grew up watching moonfall.

The Moon being something other than what it is has been a set piece in countless scifi settings. Always a good time
Great video! Strangely this is not the first video about this subject I've seen recently. There was another which goes a bit deeper from a channel called The Why Files. It's a channel which is broken into two halves where he first explains the conspiracy and then tries to debunk it. In this case though he couldn't actually disprove the conspiracy and actually ended up with more questions than answers. Like the explanations for how the moon actually came to orbit the earth in the first place. The accepted collision theory according to him doesn't make sense as both the earth and the moon don't share any of the same geology. In fact the rocks and matter collected on the moon are older than anything on earth. It is fascinating, but still... no I don't think the earth is hollow or an alien structure.
It could be that “making sense” isn't a criterion in science. Water having the highest density at 4 °C doesn't make sense either. Until you go deeper. Often a lack of understanding, knowledge or poor deduction skills can lead you to a path of confusion where the only way out is forming a narrative that removes it, whatever it takes, so it subjectively starts making sense. Many Pop Sci channels are prone to walking that path, so your eyes remain well-oiled from the constant rolling.
The ages are different because the moon is basically just a big chunk of rock that only had to deal with impacts after its creation, whereas Earth has tectonic plates, which act as recyclers even today, water, and erosion forces. It's entirely possible that if you could dig deeper into the Earth, you would also find ancient matter. When solid bodies cool, the more heavy elements sink first and the lithophile element stick to the top, then there are also siderophile elements like tungsten.
…the moon tho…
I believe it could be somewhat hollow (having a massive cave system maybe) but I definitely don’t think that it’s an alien base lol
LIZZID PEEPLE!!!
The earth has active tectonic plates. The crust is effectively recycled every few billion years. The moon is effectively a static snapshot. That's why the rocks are older on the moon.
I do get why people choose to belive these things, it would be one hell of an exiting mystery
So first you want us to believe that the moon isn't hollow but then you claim that space is square?! Now who sounds crazy?
l love these kind of conspiracies - they always turn out to be really cool 'what if' thought experiments. They make for really interesting short sci fi stories. There is another conspiracies where it is believed that outer-space doesn't actually exist- it's really imaginative!
At 4:28 you say democracy could do communism? First of all, the Soviet won the space race in terms of firsts. USA moved the goal post to men on the moon but that's the only thing they were first at that was major, in terms of sheer firsts the Soviets won the space race. Also. How had capitalism anything to do with nasa when nasa was a government project that overpaid by billions to get stuff done? The USA showed communism how to do it, throifh social programs just like the Soviets did? Sheer stupid curious Droid. You shouldn't be as dumb as this
@Wiegraf the moon really isn’t hollow. Sorry.
Most of the conspiracies about fake space comes from fundamental religious beliefs that there's a firmament above us. I have some religious family members that believes that lol 😆
@@WiegrafFolles if there is something that makes the Moon not hollow, that is space and time
@@WiegrafFolles Magnetic fields are not objects, they can be created by objects and interacted with by other objects without these needing to touch each other. The fields are also useful for creating forces that move several machines that help us on our daily lives. We can also measure the Magnetic fields of objects far away proving it's not a phenomenon exclusive to Earth.
Eventually the evidence was great enough that humans decided to accept Magnetism instead of being picky morons.
Any hollow celestial body, on the other hand, cannot be created or interacted with, or studied or even found, because it would go against many principles that we have much more evidence of their existence. So we decided to not waste any more time on these unreasonable ideas because we're, again, not morons.
Hope I said it in a way you'll understand.

Once we put something in orbit around the Moon we knew the mass of the Moon with high accuracy. We also know the size of the Moon so we know the average density with high accuracy. 9:03 "The Moon is less dense with a smaller iron core." This implies that the mass is smaller too and I have a hard time believing that.

So, what is the explanation for the shallow larger craters? Why the comrades noted it isn't really important, if it's genuinely anomalous. Also, have we found anything close to the our Moon yet anywhere else in terms of all the size-distance ratios or the fullness of eclipses? If a moon like ours is important for the stabilization of biosphere, for example, an advanced alien civilization could have built it for that purpose (and made it look like a natural object) or nudged it into its orbit as part of some sort of terraforming operation.
the explanation is fucking physics and geology.

Reminds me of David Weber's Mutineers Moon, where our Moon is a giant spacecraft.

Moon is hollow. Not only Zulu tribe speak of time when there was no Moon in orbit but also numerous greek sources. The Great flood might just be a product of bringing Moon into Lagrange point which could have caused solar flair and huge tides on the planet.
How much did they pay you to make this video
My hippy friend told me recently that the moon was made of plasma... I asked," like the sun"? He replied "Yes". I left it at that...
There is a Soviet sci fi story by Vladimir Mikhailov about Phobos and Deimos, the moons of Mars, being alien starships and Arthur Clarke puts an alien ship in orbit around Jupiter. As science fiction they are quite interesting.
I don't understand much but I could believe that there could be underground bases on the moon but if the whole Moon was hollow, wouldn't the gravitational effects on the ocean be a LOT weaker?
yep.
Neat learning that NASA had left behind stuff to see seismic activity and intentionally crash stuff to get some sort of baseline.
They also left laser reflectors that still function. These really give moon landing deniers the ass, because anybody with a little gear can bounce light from the moon.
@@thomasbell7033 The laser reflectors are just mirrors and since there is no atmosphere on the moon, they only get dust on them if a meteor hits near it and kicks dust up. So the laser reflectors are passive and would work for a long time until something hits the moon near them.
Also not anybody with little gear can't bounce light off them really. It takes a lot more gear than just someone in their backyard. Observatories around the globe can and measuring the light pulses sent, bounced off and return, can determine very accurately the distance.
@@MrT------5743 Thank you for providing some reason and clarity to my rather glib remark. Indeed, after I posted it, I wondered about the matter of dust on these mirrors, recalling the dust on the solar-power panels on Martian exploration rigs, so thanks. And no, kids with laser pointers from Wal-Mart can't get a reflection from the moon.
@@thomasbell7033 Mars has an atmosphere, where the moon is considered to not have one. So dust does move around on Mars where the moon it does not.
It would probably cost a million dollars to be able to bounce lasers off the reflectors and detect the return.
@@MrT------5743 given that some guys easily spend on the order of 10,000 on an expensive hobby (just google RC jet for instance), a dozen of these guys could afford to do it as a "club project" - a million dollar project may be out of reach for the average person, but it is not _that_ out of reach

Thanks for the explanation Mr. Shillito, your shirts are truly amazing, like your content!
It's "hollow" to me but due to lava tunnels and natural/geological cavities, NASAs LRO program peeks into lunar pits and into large volcanic tunnel systems.
Dude, you didn't need to waste time on a video, I could have just explained this for you. It's a little complicated, but hang with me: You have to begin in the US, in southern California, take a high-resolution photo of the moon. Then travel to Washington and take another one. Now you need to get to Texas, no matter which route you use, you should pass through at least 4 other states, you don't need a photo in each one but the more you have the better. At this point you may start to notice something about the photos, but resist the urge to examine them for now. This is where the trip gets really tricky, From Texas, hit Oklahoma, then you have a choice: hit every state to Florida, or every state to Maine.
Now you can begin studying the photos. Look closely at the Sea of Tranquility and some of the smaller craters, notice how there is a tiny difference in shadow during different phases of the moon? See how even though YOU took every picture with your OWN camera, but somehow the moon is different colors in some of the pictures! And sometimes it's even freaking smaller!!! Lightbulbs in your house don't change size and color randomly, so WTF man???!!! Wait, wait... whose voice was that in your head just now... then you remember, it was that crazy sombich you met out west. Now that you think about it, you realize you've heard similar things from people in several states. This has to be a coincidense right? But what if that fat lady in Alabama was right and there's no such thing as coincidense? "Snap out of it, this is stupid!" you tell yourself, "what does she know, she misspelled coincidence twice!" But it's too late, the floodgate of your mind is open and you realize you've been trying to ignore a wave of beer-scented conversations you suffered nearly every time somebody saw you taking photos. A sudden understanding washes over you and you whisper to yourself, "Holy #%@&, people are &#$%ing stupid."
Unfortunately, the seed of conspiracy is planted. However, you can protect yourself with a little self-medication and it's very easy. Simply pick up a book, flip to a random page and read it. Now think about what you just read, was it interesting, did you enjoy it? You see, most of those people can't read and the few who can often suffer physical pain from it. Sometimes the stupid can be bad enough that you may need to read multiple pages, or a whole chapter. I paid attention to politics once, jesus, I had to read an entire book... if only Sam knew the value those eggs would have today.
Literal laugh out loud: LLOL!!!
I actually do think it’s hollow .. why are all the meteor strikes the same depth . Why did it ring like a bell ?
exactly
I agree 💯.... But even if it had been discovered to be hollow/artificially created, you think they’d tell us?
Hell no, just discredit anybody that gets close with a theory, then feed more bullsh1t to the masses to keep them quiet.... 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
THIS is why you stay in school kids.
Strange that the moon surface has been found to contain U236, which is only a man-made element on earth, I understand. (Does anybody dispute it is not naturally occurring on earth?) Strange, too, the recent discovery of Changesite-(Y), which also does not exist naturally on our planet, unless I misunderstood China's news reports after their recent mission to our oversized satellite, Luna. Anyway, the later mineral is said to be a promising resource as a fuel for nuclear fusion. How convenient, as The Church Lady said on SNL.
I mean the questions are true tho why did it ring there are no explanations@@steveburke7675
My question is,if the moon is hollow,then why the moon is volcanic active
it's neither, however when it was a coupe billion years ago that would have been impossible had it been hollow.
It’s a derelict spaceship, I thought everyone knew that.
I did not know about all those experiments on the moon, great work. makes sense to use the kinetic force of the module to poke it, and then observe genius. Those guys on Nasa in the 60 70 were cream of the cream really.. Also hats off to the russkies that accomplished a lot under WAY more pressure.
I don't know about less pressure but sure as hell less concern for human life. Hey comrades don't sit back there sit up here by the big wig and die like men.
@@Parents_of_Twins All in all, great men and women of Steel, both sides.
Thanks, good information. Please make a video explaining why we always see the same side of the moon.
Both rotate in synchronicity. This is likely because of the moon’s origin, a minor planet sized object striking the earth and the resulting spin imparted to both body’s has endured since that time has remained locked in this synchronicity.
@@Greendragon420able I could be wrong but I think it's more that a planet hit proto earth and the moon is the debris from that impact yes? Moon and earth rock show the exact same chemical signature.
@@JamesF0790 That’s essentially what I’m saying above.
@@Greendragon420able Ah okay, my mistake!
Earth is a sphere and the moon goes around the earth, it is tidally locked with the earth with one face always pointing towards the earth. That's why everyone on earth always sees the same face of the moon.

Whilst the Moon is not hollow, the large caverns and lava tubes known to exist under the surface offer the perfect place to establish a Lunar base. They give protection from both radiation and micro meteorites.
Yes, and the deepest lava tubes reach down to the hollow space. The crazy thing is that an astronaut can crawl into that empty space and can stand up and walk around on the inner surface because the gravity pulls them upwards towards the inner surface. People had to accept that gravity is different than people had always assumed.

well it is filled with liquid, just like earth. gravitationally, the moon experiences even greater tides, forcing all the water to the earth-facing side. that's why we only see one side of the moon. the moon is 1/3rd the mass of earth and it got 1/3rd of all earth's water, too, and gold and magma. if the moon lost all that water then it would be hollow, best way to find out is to dig.
