246 outside in), with a spacecraft in the heavens between them. Benefiting from Mars’s lower gravity compared to that of Earth, the Anunnaki had found it easier and more logical to first transport themselves and their cargos in shuttlecraft from Earth to Mars, and there transfer to reach Nibiru (and vice versa). In 1976, when all that was first presented in The Twelfth Planet, Mars was still held to be an airless, waterless, life- less, hostile planet, and the suggestion that a space base had once existed there was deemed by establishment scholars even more far out than the notion of “Ancient Astronauts.” By the time Genesis Revisited was published in 1990, there were enough of NASA’s own findings and photographs from Mars to fill up a whole chapter titled “A Space Base on Mars.” The evidence showed that Mars once had water, and included photographs of walled structures, roads, a hublike compound (Fig. 114 shows just two such photographs)—and the famous Face (Fig. 115). Both the United States and the Soviet Union (now Russia) made great efforts to reach and explore Mars with unmanned spacecraft; unlike other space endeavors, the missions to Mars—since augmented by the European Union—have met with an unusual, troubling, and puzzling high rate of fail- ures, including bewildering unexplained disappearances of spacecraft. But due to persistent efforts, enough U.S., So- viet, and European unmanned spacecraft have managed to reach and explore Mars in the last two decades, that by now the scientific journals—of the same “Doubting Thomases” of the 1970s—have been filled with reports, studies, and photographs announcing that Mars did have a sizeable and still has a thin atmosphere; that it once had rivers, lakes, and oceans and still has water, at some places just below the surface and in some instances even visible as small frozen lakes—as a medley of the headlines shows (Fig. 116). In 2005 NASA’s Mars Rovers sent back chemical and photo- graphic evidence backing those conclusions; together with some of the Rovers’ amazing photographs showing struc- tural remains—like a sand-covered wall with distinct right- angled corners (Fig. 117)—they should suffice here to make THE END OF DAYS
