This is the Dr. Beter AUDIO LETTER(R), 1629 K Street N.W., Washington,

DC 20006



   Hello, my friends, this is Dr. Beter. Today is April 27, 1981, and

this is my AUDIO LETTER No. 64.



   "T minus 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4...We've gone for main engine start.

We have main engine start." (Engine noise takes over for some two

seconds) "...liftoff of America's first Space Shuttle, and the Shuttle

has cleared the tower." (Then again the roaring noise on the AUDIO

LETTER tape.)



   And that's how it all began, my friends, just two weeks

ago--Sunday, April 12, 1981. After years of delay, America's first

attempt to launch a space shuttle into orbit had finally begun.



   In days gone by, the voice of "Mission Control" has always been a

familiar hallmark of American manned flights into space. In the early

days, beginning with "PROJECT MERCURY", the voice was that of Col.

John (Shorty) Powers. Later, during the "APOLLO" program there were

other voices; but regardless of who it was, that familiar voice of

"Mission Control" would always stay with us throughout each space

flight--that is, until this time. This time the voice of Mission

Control, up until the moment of launch, was that of NASA spokesman

Hugh Harris. The last words Harris spoke as the voice of Mission

Control were the words you just heard: "The Shuttle has cleared the

tower."



   Television cameras followed the Shuttle as it climbed higher and

higher on a column of steam and smoke. For another 30 seconds or so,

we were allowed to hear the slowly fading roar of the Shuttle's rocket

engines. Then the sounds from Mission Control abruptly changed.

Exactly 45 seconds after lift-off, "live" audio from Mission Control

was terminated. In its place NASA began feeding the radio and

television networks an elaborate tape recording, which had been

prepared far ahead of time by NASA. The change-over from "live" audio

to the NASA tape recording sounded like this: (First, loud roaring for

10 seconds, abruptly fading, then into a steadily

increasing-in-loudness humming-roaring for some 10 seconds.)

"4-34...?" "Roger." (More of the roaring sound.)



   Just 45 seconds after lift-off, the falsified NASA coverage of the

flight of the "Columbia" began. We were still able to see the Columbia

by way of long-distance television cameras for another minute and a

half, but the sounds we were hearing were no longer "live." They were

the sounds of the special NASA tape recording. For the first minute or

so of the tape recording, we heard nothing but the sound effects

simulating conversation between the Shuttle and NASA-Houston. Then,

for the first time, we heard the anonymous new voice of Mission

Control. It was no longer the familiar live voice of Hugh Harris, but

the recorded voice of someone else. For added realism, the new voice

was interrupted in turn by the recorded voice of the alleged capsule

communicator Daniel Brandenstein. It sounded like this: (first a

high-pitched screech followed by) "One minute 45 seconds, coming up on

go-go-go." "Columbia, you're negative seats." "That call-up says that,

Columbia, the altitude is too high for ejection seat use."



   By that point the shuttle Columbia was more than 20 miles high, and

climbing fast. Everything was going according to plan so far, so the

things we were hearing on the tape recording corresponded to what we

were seeing. We could still see the Shuttle on our TV sets, but it had

dwindled to nothing more than three bright spots dancing in the

distant sky.



   The last thing that you and I were able to see and verify for

ourselves about the Shuttle was the separation of those two giant

solid-rocket boosters. A little over two minutes after liftoff, we

were able to watch the boosters, two burning bright spots, break off

to each side. That left only the single tiny flame of the Shuttle

itself, gradually fading into invisibility. Several seconds later the

NASA tape recording caught up with what we had already seen, and said

the boosters had separated. Moments later the tiny bright dot of the

Shuttle faded from our screens. It was too far away for the television

cameras to follow any longer. We had had our last look at the real

space shuttle Columbia!



   In AUDIO LETTER No. 62 two months ago, I gave an advance alert

about the secret military mission of the space shuttle Columbia. At

that time I made public what the mission was really all about. I was

also able to reveal what to expect in the falsified NASA coverage of

the mission.



   The falsified coverage was designed to accomplish two purposes.

First, to completely hide the military nature of the mission; and

second, to make sure the mission looked like a total success, no

matter what might happen in secret. As I detailed in AUDIO LETTER No.

62, the Bolsheviks here in the federal government are depending

heavily on the Space Shuttle Program to get ready for a nuclear war

against Russia.



   The falsified NASA coverage of the mission of the space shuttle

Columbia was carried out exactly according to plan. I revealed this

plan two months ago. There were the standard brief cockpit scenes made

by techniques which I will describe later. Just to make it look good,

it was spiced up by telling us that a few non-critical tiles had

fallen off. Otherwise we were told over and over how perfectly the

Columbia was performing.



   Four days ago on April 23, a news conference about the flight was

held in Houston, Texas, by the alleged two astronauts, John Young and

Robert Crippen. The entity called John Young summed up the flight in

words that were more meaningful than most people suspected. Referring

to the falsified flight which we followed on television, he called it,

quote: "...even better than normal." And so it was, my friends. The

Bolsheviks who now control NASA bent over backwards to paint the image

of an abnormally perfect shuttle flight. Meanwhile the actual Shuttle

mission, which was carried out in secret, did not go according to

plan. After the Shuttle disappeared from our television screens, the

flight continued for barely four more minutes before disaster struck.

The Columbia never even reached earth orbit!



   My friends, I believe you have both the right and the need to know

what happened to the space shuttle Columbia two weeks ago. I believe

you deserve to know, in detail, how and why the truth was hidden from

you. The stakes involve nothing less than the very survival of our

land and our way of life.



   My three special topics for this AUDIO LETTER are:



Topic #1--THE ADVANCE PREPARATIONS FOR THE SPACE SHUTTLE MISSION Topic

#2--THE ABORTED FLIGHT OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE "COLUMBIA" Topic #3--THE

NASA COVERUP OF THE "COLUMBIA" DISASTER.



Topic #1--There is an old saying that "Seeing is believing." For that

reason, television has become the No. 1 tool of deception in America

today. Through television we are made to see things we do not

understand so that we will believe things that are not true. If

television were used honestly and constructively, television could be

a great force for good. Instead, it's used continually to hoax,

deceive, and mislead  us. Video-taping makes events which took place

weeks or months ago look as if they wer e taking place "live" right

before our eyes. Computer editing enables scenes to be spliced

together to create completely artificial images that look real.

Special effects of all kinds enable these television hoaxes to be very

convincing indeed.



   Two years ago I described one major television hoax in detail in

AUDIO LETTER No. 44. That hoax involved no less than the NBC

television news program "Meet the Press." Now we have been treated to

another great television hoax, and this one was the granddaddy of them

all. In terms of sheer deception, this was the "Meet the Press" hoax,

"Guyana", and SKYLAB all rolled into one. This was the hoax coverage

of the first flight of the space shuttle Columbia.



   To begin with, we were led to believe that until two weeks ago no

space shuttle had ever left the earth's atmosphere and gone into

space. We were also led to believe that the very first space flight by

a shuttle had to be an orbital flight, instead of something less

extreme. To make matters still worse, NASA swore up and down that this

very first flight, pushing the Shuttle to its limits, just had to have

men aboard. At one point even John Young himself was quoted to this

effect very widely in the controlled major media. For example, two

months ago on February 15, the New York Times carried a big article

about the Shuttle. Quoting from the article: "Mr. Young said, to have

conducted an unmanned orbital flight of the Shuttle first would have

added perhaps $500,000,000 to project costs, and meant another year's

delay." Statements like that were cooked up purely to explain away the

many things that did not add up about the announced plans for the

Columbia's flight. Many people believe these explanations, but they

were just a litany of lies.



   For example, time after time during the television coverage of the

alleged flight this month, John Young's earlier statement was totally

contradicted. Authoritative spokesmen pointed out over and over that

the astronauts control the Shuttle by telling computers aboard the

Shuttle what they want. The computers then do all the actual

activation and control of the Shuttle--and, in an emergency, the

Shuttle can fly itself into orbit, re-enter, and even land itself

without help from the pilots. So much for all those lies NASA told us

about an unmanned first flight being impossible.



   The real reason astronauts were aboard the first orbital flight was

the one I revealed in AUDIO LETTER No. 62. It was a military mission,

and the astronauts had to be aboard to carry it out. NASA told us that

the flight this month was only a test flight with the cargo bay

practically empty. But the cargo bay of the Columbia was not empty. It

carried a laser-armed Spy Satellite equipped with special shields to

protect it against Russian space weapons. "But wait a minute", you

say. "They showed us live pictures from space and you could see that

the bay was empty." No, my friends, not "live" pictures but video

tapes. The pictures with the doors closed were taken inside a training

mock-up of the shuttle that is carried inside a specially modified

Boeing 747. The pictures with the doors open were taken on the ground

inside a darkened hangar. Then these scenes were combined by video

tape editing techniques with video tapes of the earth taken from orbit

years ago. The final product was what you saw on television. It was

not what it appeared to be, but "seeing is believing."



   My friends, the next time you see a replay of those scenes with the

Shuttle doors open, supposedly in space, there is a telltale clue to

look for. Look at the shadows visible inside the open cargo bay.

Shadows in space tend to be sharp and harsh because there is no air to

soften and diffuse them. The shadows we saw in the video tapes on

television were softer because they were not made in space. Also, look

at the angle of the shadows. The earth is shown floating straight

overhead, and it is all in daylight. Look at the slant of the shadows

inside the open cargo bay, then ask yourself: "Where is the light

coming from to make shadows like that?"



   The impossible shadows which we saw in the Shuttle bay video tapes

are just one small example of the many discrepancies in the NASA hoax.

More to the point, NASA has pretended that the Columbia flight this

month was the very first shuttle flight into space. We are supposed to

believe that the only previous shuttle operations were a few gliding

tests launched from mid air by another modified 747. Nothing could be

more ridiculous or more untrue.



   There is one very obvious question about the Space Shuttle Program

which NASA has always managed to side step. Somehow no one ever quite

dares to ask it. The question is: Why wasn't the space shuttle

"Enterprise" the first to be sent into orbit? After all, the

Enterprise made its public debut nearly four years ago in the summer

of 1977.



   To all outward appearances, the Enterprise looks almost identical

to its sister ship, the Columbia. The differences between the two are

so subtle that you would never notice them unless you knew exactly

what to look for. The engines of the Enterprise look just like the

engines of the Columbia. The Enterprise is also covered with the same

system of thermal tiles as the Columbia, so again, the question is:

Why wasn't the Enterprise sent into orbit long ago? Why did NASA wait

three years and more to launch the Columbia instead? The answer, my

friends, is that the Enterprise was designed to be a training ship for

shuttle astronauts. It is not meant for orbital flight. Instead, it is

specially equipped to make shorter, suborbital flights into space. In

effect, it can do everything short of going into earth orbit. It can

climb to orbital altitudes as high as 125 miles before dropping back

to earth. This enables astronauts to practice working in

weightlessness for up to five and one-half minutes at a time. It also

allows astronauts to practice landing the shuttle, slowing down from

speeds of around 5,000 miles per hour.



   The Enterprise is exactly like its sister ships in the crew

compartment and cockpit. What makes the Enterprise radically different

is the cargo bay area. The Enterprise cannot carry cargo because the

bay area is taken up by rocket fuel tanks. The tanks of the Enterprise

can hold well over 100,000 pounds of rocket fuel when fully loaded. To

make a suborbital hop into space, the Enterprise is perched on top of

a modified Boeing 747 known as the "Launch Aircraft." Inside the 747

there are technicians with instruments and support equipment for the

shuttle. The shuttle Enterprise is loaded with rocket fuel, and then

the 747 takes off. At an altitude of around 40,000 feet, the shuttle

is launched. The launch techniques are derived from the old days of

the X-15 Research Airplane and others before it. The Enterprise is

released from its mounts, rises up, and then falls back behind the

747. As soon as it is clear of the 747, the Enterprise starts its

rocket engines and zooms upward at a steep angle. After a minute or so

the rockets shut off, and the Enterprise is left to coast upward to

its peak altitude and then drop back toward earth. From the moment the

engines shut off until the shuttle begins re-entering the atmosphere

five or six minutes later, the astronauts inside are weightless.



   Astronauts Young and Crippen made more than half a dozen training

flights like this aboard the Enterprise before they lifted off aboard

the Columbia at Cape Canaveral. That is why they were so ready to go

all the way into orbit. They had already done everything else that was

necessary to work their way up to it. Of course, other training was

necessary to work their way up to those suborbital flights aboard the

Enterprise. For one thing, they spent many hours in the detailed

replica of the shuttle which is housed inside a modified Boeing 747.

The "Flying Mock-Up", as it is called, is a simulator designed to

acquaint astronauts with shuttle operation as realistically as

possible. One of its advantages is that it can even provide periods of

weightlessness of up toabout 45 seconds. The 747 pilot does this by

flying a precise arc through the air called a "parabolic trajectory."

It's an old technique developed a quarter century ago to help

astronauts get accustomed to weightlessness.



   All of these things and more were originally conceived and

developed for purely technical reasons, but they are being kept secret

from you because the Bolsheviks who now control NASA have turned them

into tools of deception against you and me. Lately, publicity about

the Space Shuttle Program has been focused on three geographic

locations. One is the launch site for orbital missions, Cape

Canaveral, Florida. Another is Edwards Air Force Base, California. The

third is that old stand-by, the NASA Manned Space Flight Center in

Houston, Texas.



   As always, we are being distracted from paying serious attention to

the one area that is most important of all. It is the missing link,

the true nerve center of the entire Space Shuttle Program. My friends,

I'm talking about the White Sands Missile Range in southern New

Mexico.



   Most people today rarely give a second thought to White Sands. Few

people remember that White Sands is where America's Space Program got

its start after World War II. Captured German V-2 rockets were taken

to White Sands to be studied and test fired. After the V-2s, there

were American rockets, the Navy's Viking series, and others. They were

launched, rocketed upward into the fringes of space, and came back to

earth--all within the boundaries of the vast White Sands Missile

Range. One time a missile got out of control, veered south, and almost

destroyed a small Mexican town when it crashed to earth; but that

incident was a dramatic exception to the normal situation. Most of the

time, no one outside White Sands even knew when rockets were launched.

Recently the public has been made aware of the vast wide-open spaces

that constitute Edwards Air Force Base in California. For comparison,

White Sands is so huge that it would hold nearly 100 Edwards Air Force

Bases!



   White Sands, my friends, is the training base for space shuttle

pilots; and since late 1977 it has also become much more. It is the

geographic key to the secret military missions which are now the

central focus of the Space Shuttle Program. The Shuttle Program today

is being managed in a way that is far different from the original

plans. In August 1977 we were shown early gliding tests of the

training shuttle Enterprise. The plan of NASA was to drum up public

support for the Shuttle Program, just as they had done a decade

earlier in the Moon Program.



   In AUDIO LETTER No. 26 I detailed how the Apollo Program, the

biggest military program in American history, was disguised as a

peaceful scientific venture. In the same way, the original plan was to

bathe the military Shuttle Program in the glare of deceptive

publicity. In the process we would have learned about the suborbital

space capability of the Enterprise. Even the crucial White Sands would

have received more publicity.



   What changed it all was the secret "Battle of the Harvest Moon" in

space September 27, 1977. This secret space battle, which I made

public that month in AUDIO LETTER No. 26, took place barely one month

after the first gliding tests of the space shuttle Enterprise.

Russia's military take-over of space was under way!



   Only the next month, October 1977, a newly operational Russian

Cosmos Interceptor shot down SKYLAB. SKYLAB, along with its crew of

five American astronauts secretly aboard, died in a giant fireball

over the United States. I reported on SKYLAB's fate that month in

AUDIO LETTER No. 27, and also revealed that NASA was initiating a

prolonged cover-up of what had happened. NASA wanted everyone to

forget about that mysterious headline-making fireball, so they

pretended that SKYLAB was still in orbit but sinking unexpectedly.

NASA used stories about the space shuttle as part of their SKYLAB

cover-up. They pretended that perhaps the shuttle would come along in

time to save SKYLAB. As I reported then, that was a double lie by

NASA. First, SKYLAB could never be saved because it had already been

destroyed. Second, the United States was in no position at that time

to launch the shuttle or anything else of a military nature into

space. Russia was deploying her secret new Space Triad of advanced

manned space weapons.



   America's previous military control of space had been totally

shattered by Russia. Our military base on the moon had been put out of

action in the "Battle of the Harvest Moon." Russian Cosmos

Interceptors had started sweeping the skies clear of American Spy

Satellites, and Russian hovering electrogravitic weapons platforms,

the Cosmospheres, were making headlines by creating enormous air booms

along the East Coast and elsewhere. All of these things took place

just as America's Space Shuttle Program was getting off the ground.



   The result was a complete reorganization of the Shuttle Program.

The old plans to bathe it in continuous publicity were thrown out. The

Bolsheviks here, who have replaced the Rockefeller cartel in many

areas of power, cast a net of secrecy over all these new military

plans. We were never told about many of the capabilities of the

training shuttle Enterprise, and we were never told about the many

things which are going on at White Sands in the military Shuttle

Program. By keeping these things secret from us, the Bolsheviks here

have placed themselves in a powerful position to deceive us.



   We have never been told about the modified NASA 747 which carries a

complete replica of the crew quarters and cargo bay of a shuttle.

Therefore we are unaware that this airplane, originally intended for

training, has become a Bolshevik tool of deception against us. When we

saw video tapes of astronauts in the simulated Shuttle cockpit, we

naturally thought it was the real thing. Seeing a notebook float in

mid air for a few seconds next to the astronauts, we were supposed to

think: "They are weightless because they are in orbit." We were given

no clue that these moments of weightlessness had taken place months

earlier in a 747 flying a controlled arc through the air. Likewise, we

were shown one or two episodes of the astronauts moving around the

cabin, obviously weightless for up to three or four minutes. What we

were not told is that these scenes had been video-taped months earlier

during suborbital space hops by the training shuttle Enterprise.



   Many of my listeners have called or written with the same

observation about the first of these episodes shown the day of the

launch. We heard the alleged "live" conversation of Young and Crippen,

and yet, in the television picture, they were not moving their lips.

They had merely posed for the camera during a suborbital flight months

earlier, and they recorded the sound track we heard only days before

the launch.



   While NASA may have fooled you and me about the Space Shuttle, they

did not fool the new rulers of Russia. They learned last fall what the

flight of the Columbia was really all about; and, my friends, when the

Columbia was launched two weeks ago, the Russians were ready and

waiting!



Topic #2--A month before the shuttle "Columbia" blasted off from Cape

Canaveral, the two astronauts who were to ride in it held a news

conference in Houston. The day was March 9, 1981. Astronaut Robert

Crippen caught the attention of the reporters when he said:



  "I think the odds, with the way we've designed the mission right

now, are that we will probably come home early."



Then he added, quote:



  "As far as John and I are concerned, if we get up and get down, it's

a success."



Those words of astronaut Crippen about a short mission were more

accurate than most people realized.



   The real mission plan, which I had already made public in AUDIO

LETTER No. 62, was for a short mission. The astronauts were supposed

to get into orbit and deploy the military satellite from the

Columbia's cargo bay very quickly, then they were to return to

Earth--not aboard the Shuttle but in a special re-entry capsule. Two

days later they were supposed to land the disguised shutt le

"Enterprise" at Edwards Air Force Base as the final act in the

falsified drama staged for our benefit.



   In AUDIO LETTER No. 62 I described the military purpose of the

mission in detail. For the first time in three years the Pentagon was

hoping to get a Spy Satellite into orbit that could not be shot down

immediately by Russia. I also outlined important features of the

flight plan which had been conceived for the Columbia. Now I want to

give you more details about that and tell you how it turned out

because, my friends, the Bolsheviks here in the Government are now

planning to try it again with a second shuttle flight presently

scheduled for the fall of this year 1981.



   Knowing what happened this time, I believe you will be far better

prepared to see through it all next time. If you can think back to

American space launches of the past, you may have noticed something

very unusual about the launch of the Columbia. In the past, manned

space launches from Cape Canaveral have always been made toward the

southeast, toward the equator, but not this time. The Columbia was

launched to the northeast, away from the equator. The reason for this,

my friends, was the secret space reconnaissance mission of the

Columbia.



   In its public news releases, NASA told everyone that Columbia was

launched into a 44-degree orbit--that is, it would never go further

north or south than 44 degrees above and below the equator. But the

actual orbit chosen for the Columbia was a 69-degree orbit. A

69-degree orbit was chosen because it would take the Columbia, and the

Spy Satellite inside it, all the way north to the Arctic Circle and

beyond. That is the kind of orbit that is necessary if a spy satellite

is to fly reconnaissance over Russia.



   The northeast launch of the Columbia was done in order to enable

the Spy Satellite to start gathering data over Russia only minutes

after the Columbia reached orbit. These days time is of the essence in

any attempt to spy on Russia. Every American spy satellite launched at

Russia during the past three years has been blinded or shot down

before gathering much data.



   The secret flight plan for the Columbia was completely different

from what NASA claimed in public. The plan called for Columbia to be

launched on an initial northeast course in the general direction of

Bermuda, then roughly 2-1/2 minutes after launch, Columbia was to

begin an unorthodox course change--a wide sweeping turn into the

north. This unprecedented curving launch was intended as an evasive

maneuver. Planners of the Columbia mission believed this would enable

Columbia to sneak past any Russian Cosmospheres that might be waiting

overhead. Still accelerating on its curving course, the Columbia was

supposed to pass about 100 miles east of Cape Hatteras, North

Carolina. Roughly 200 miles east of Washington, D.C., the Shuttle's

main engines were to cut off. After coasting in silence for a few

seconds, the fuel tank was scheduled to cut loose as the Columbia

passed 100 miles east of New Jersey. For the next two minutes the

Shuttle and its fuel tank were to be coasting onward past the east tip

of Long Island, over Boston, and onward toward Maine. During that time

the Shuttle was supposed to maneuver away from the fuel tank, using

small maneuvering jets. Finally, just as the Columbia passed over New

Brunswick, Canada, the flight plan called for the orbital maneuvering

engines to be fired. Somewhere over the Labrador Sea, flying

upside-down, the Columbia was scheduled to reach earth orbit. As soon

as it did so, the flight plan called for astronauts Young and Crippen

to go to work fast. In less than 10 minutes time they were supposed to

open up the cargo bay doors and turn on the sensors of the Spy

Satellite resting inside. As they did these things, the Columbia was

to be racing over the south tip of Greenland, out over the middle of

the Denmark Strait between Greenland and Iceland, above the Arctic

Circle, and then dipping back southward toward northern Norway,

Finland, and Russia. According to the flight plan, the Columbia was

scheduled to cross the Russian border just south of the strategic Kola

Peninsula. The time: a mere 22 minutes, 42 seconds, after lift-off

from Cape Canaveral. At that moment initial reconnaissance over Russia

was to be under way. The Spy Satellite inside the cargo bay, even

though not yet deployed, would have had a perfect view downward

through the open doors of the upside-down Shuttle.



   The Columbia was intended to fly over a course across Russia that

began just west of the strategic White Sea in extreme northwestern

Russia. From there the planned course of the Columbia was to take it

southeastward over some 2500 miles of strategic Russian territory.

During the first minute alone, the Satellite was expected to see parts

of the highly sensitive Kola Peninsula, the White Sea, including the

super secret submarine yards at Archangel and the Plesetsk Cosmodrome.

The Shuttle was also to pass near Kazan, one of the bases of Russia's

flying ABM system. This system, as I revealed a year ago in AUDIO

LETTER No. 54, uses charged particle beams carried by supersonic

TU-144 transports.



   Toward the end of the first pass over Russia the Spy Satellite was

expected to gather data on two more of Russia's four

Cosmodromes--those of Baikonur and Tyura-Tam. In between, numerous

other war targets were also to come under scrutiny. The Spy Satellite

in the Columbia's cargo bay was expected to see all that during its

very first pass over Russian territory. It would all take only 8-1/2

minutes! Then the Columbia would have crossed the border with

Afghanistan, heading toward India. Barely 10 minutes later, the Spy

Satellite was to be radioing its data down to the American receivers

at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.



   That was the plan, my friends. The Bolshevik military planners here

were confident that their Spy Satellite would get at least this

planned first look at Russia. They were sure that Columbia's curving

launch and the short time involved would prevent Russia from thwarting

the mission. Columbia took off from Cape Canaveral at 7:00 A.M.

Eastern Time, that Sunday morning. By 7:23 Columbia was expected to be

over Russia already. By 7:31 Columbia was expected to be leaving

Russian skies, and by 7:45 that Sunday morning the military planners

expected to have their first reconnaissance data from Russia.



   The plan sounded plausible, my friends, but the Bolsheviks here are

falling victim to the very Intelligence gap which they themselves

created in America years ago. Russian Intelligence agents were able to

learn the general outlines of the Columbia mission plan some six

months ago. Fully one month before the public roll-out of the Columbia

at Cape Canaveral last November, the Russian Space Command was

studying the problem. There was no question about one thing: The

Columbia's mission could not be allowed to succeed. Given even a shred

of up-to-date reconnaissance data, the Bolsheviks in America are

determined to set off nuclear war. Even so, there was a question about

the best way to spoil the Shuttle mission. Several possibilities were

considered, including sabotage or simply blasting the Columbia out of

the sky. All were rejected because they shared one weakness. Each

alternative would halt one shuttle mission, but it would not stop the

Shuttle Program as a whole, and Russia's goal is to completely shut

down the Space Shuttle Program.



   At last they hit upon the solution. What was needed was a Space Age

version of the famous U-2 incident of two decades ago. In the waning

days of the Eisenhower Administration, Russia had publicly accused the

United States of invading its air space with spy flights. That was

before the era of Spy Satellites, and invading other countries' air

space was a serious charge in the eyes of the world. American

spokesmen tried to defuse the growing furor while carefully avoiding a

definitive denial of the charges; but the Russians kept it up. Finally

President Eisenhower became so exasperated that he flatly denied, in

public, that America was flying spy plan es over Russia. That was

exactly what the Russians were waiting for. The Russians promptlydid

what American Intelligence specialists thought they could not do--they

shot down a high-flying U-2 on a flight over Russia. The name of the

CIA pilot, the late Francis Gary Powers, filled the headlines

world-wide overnight. The Russians had made a liar of the President of

the United States! A summit had been scheduled between President

Eisenhower and Nikita Khrushchev, but the Russians icily called it

off.



   The Russian Space Command proposed to the Kremlin that the shuttle

Columbia be made the focus of a similar incident. All that was

necessary was that the Columbia be made to crash land in Russia

reasonably intact. Having protested continuously about the military

nature of the Shuttle Program, Russia would be able to stun the world

by proving it. They would put the crashed Shuttle on public display

together with its nuclear-powered, laser-firing Spy Satellite. The

Kremlin liked the plan, and agreed to it. To further emphasize the

parallels with the 1960 U-2 incident, Russia has recently proposed a

summit with the United States. The plan was to withdraw the summit

proposal in protest after shooting down the Columbia.



   The Russian Space Command went to work several months ago to get

ready. They were faced with a tall order to bring down the Columbia on

Russian territory without totally destroying it. As recently as a year

ago it would have been an impossible task, but now Russia has a new

space tool to do the job. It is a third version of the Russian

levitating weapons platform, the Cosmosphere. They are called "Super

Heavies" by the Russian Space Command.



   The Russian Super Heavy Cosmospheres are still considered

experimental. Even so, the Russians have already built seven of them.

They are mammoth machines, the largest flying machines ever built. In

terms of volume, they are even bigger than the biggest zeppelins of

the 1930's. They can carry a pay load of more than 50 tons, far more

than our own space shuttle; and they are equipped with powerful

electromagnetic propulsion which can take the Cosmosphere all the way

to orbital speed. In short, my friends, the jumbo Cosmosphere is

Russia's space shuttle. It is still experimental, but it is operating

already.



   In order to carry out their attack on the space shuttle Columbia,

Russia's entire fleet of seven jumbo Cosmospheres were made ready.

Five were outfitted with special grappling equipment to enable them to

seize a very large object in space. The other two were outfitted with

neutron particle beam weapons. These weapons are the same type as were

used in the "Battle of the Harvest Moon" in September 1977.



   At 7:00 A.M. Sunday morning, April 12, the rocket engines of the

space shuttle Columbia roared to life. Moments later the giant solid

boosters were fired, and the Columbia took off fast. As it climbed, it

rolled around and started leaning into its flight path toward space.

As we watched on our television sets, it rapidly dwindled off into the

northeast. We watched as the solid boosters separated and peeled away

to each side. Moments later the Columbia vanished from the screen.



   The television scene shifted to the alleged Mission Control in

Houston. It was the old familiar scene with rows of Mission

Controllers intent on their consoles. Up in front the NASA

computer-controlled map started tracing the alleged course of the

Columbia. According to the map, Columbia was heading out over the

Atlantic toward Bermuda; but at that moment, free of the solid

boosters, Columbia was already starting its long sweeping curve to the

north. One-hundred-fifty miles east of Charleston, South Carolina,

Russia's fleet of 7 jumbo Cosmospheres were hovering high over the

ocean. As the space shuttle approached on its elaborate curving path,

the Cosmospheres started speeding up to intercept it. The Shuttle was

already flying upside-down with the huge fuel tank on top. The two

Cosmospheres armed with neutron beams closed in on the Columbia from

below and slightly behind, where they could not be seen by Young and

Crippen. The other five jumbo Cosmospheres with their grappling

equipment flew in formation above and well behind the fuel tank to be

out of the line of fire. The Cosmospheres paced the Shuttle until it

reached a predetermined altitude and speed.



   Then the armed Cosmospheres opened up with their neutron beams.

Firing at point-blank range, each Cosmosphere fired just two bursts

from its beam weapon. The first salvo flooded the cockpit area and an

area near the engines in the rear. Young and Crippen died instantly,

the neutron radiation having totally disrupted all activity of their

nervous systems, brains, eyes, and hearts. At the same time the

Shuttle's engines shut down. A fraction of a second later, the second

salvo flooded neutron radiation into the nose and an area beneath the

cargo bay. These shots were calculated to derange and shut down the

Columbia's flight computers--that is, all the computers except one.

The Russians wanted the backup computer to take over and do its

job--that is, make an emergency automatic re-entry and crash landing

in Russia. They anticipated that it would do so because the backup

computer is heavily shielded against radiation. The shielding is a

material more efficient than lead. It is gold! The Russians expected

that the "Gold Computer", as it is known in certain circles, would

take over after the engines shut down. Sure enough, within 10 seconds

after the engines shut down, the fuel tank, still a third full, was

automatically cast loose. The Gold Computer was now flying the

Shuttle. The five jumbo Cosmospheres with grappling equipment fastened

onto the fuel tank. Then, using their powerful electromagnetic

propulsion, they veered away with the tank. From its northeasterly

course, the tank was swerved around over the North Atlantic in a great

arc until it was heading southeast instead. The Cosmospheres then

accelerated to orbital speed and cast the fuel tank loose.



   Three years ago the first Cosmospheres had sent a message by way of

enormous air booms along America's East Coast. Now Russia's newest

Cosmospheres were using the Shuttle fuel tank to send a chilling new

message to America's Bolshevik war planners.



   Meanwhile the armed Cosmospheres followed the Columbia itself.

Having had its engines shut down prematurely, the Columbia was well

below orbital speed. Instead it was following a ballistic path, just

like an ICBM, into the heart of Russia. It looked as though the

Russian plan was going to work, but then the unexpected happened!



   One of Columbia's deranged computers apparently started working

again. The brief shut-down had thrown it out of synchronization with

the Gold Computer, so the two computers apparently did not communicate

with one another. As the Columbia passed over the border of Russia, it

was flying right-side-up instead of upside-down under control of the

Gold Computer. But the other computer opened up the cargo bay doors

right on schedule. As the Shuttle began to re-enter over Russia, hot

air flooded the cargo bay. Heat sensors in the Spy Satellite detected

the heat build-up, which was programmed into the Satellite's computer

as a sign of "attack damage." Finally, the temperature built up to a

critical point, activating a self-destruct circuit in the Satellite.

The Spy Satellite exploded, blowing the Columbia apart.



   The Russians had hoped for a crash landing in recognizable form.

Instead, the Columbia ended up in wreckage strewn along a line some 85

miles long in central Russia southeast of the City of Kazan. As it

turned out, neither the Bolsheviks here nor the Russians got what they

wanted. The Bolsheviks did not get their reconnaissance data, and the

Russians did not get a recognizable space shuttle to show the world.

That leaves the stage set for another "try" by both sides later this

year.



Topic #3--Sunday, April 12, 1981, was the 20th anniversary of the

first manned flight into space. It was the anniversary of the first

orbital flight by a Russian co smonaut, Yuri Gagarin. It was also a

day of total disarray among the Bolshevik masters of America's Space

Shuttle Program.



   Less than eight minutes after launch that Sunday morning they knew

something had happened to the Columbia. You and I were still hearing

the sound effects of a seemingly successful flight, courtesy of the

NASA tape recording from Houston. But the military controllers at

White Sands, who were following the real flight, were hearing nothing

at all. Columbia had suddenly gone totally silent.



   At 7:45 A.M. the news got worse. Columbia had failed to arrive over

the Indian Ocean on schedule.



   Before the morning was out, there was still more bad news. NORAD

was tracking the fuel tank of the Shuttle. It was not supposed to be

in orbit at all--but there it was, in an orbit that looked impossible.



   That evening, Sunday April 12, the Shuttle's fuel tank re-entered

over the Gulf of Mexico just south of Louisiana. The tank had ruptured

but there was still a sizeable amount of liquid hydrogen and oxygen

inside. When the tank re-entered it heated up and set off an enormous

explosion, creating a giant cloud at the fringes of space. Gold

plating, which is used extensively in the shuttle fuel tank because of

its heat transfer properties, was vaporized and scattered through the

cloud. The result was the same as when gold is added in tiny

quantities to stained window glass--a brilliant pinkish-red color. The

giant pink cloud, with chunks of the ruined fuel tank flashing in the

sun, created headlines as it passed to the northeast over Louisiana

and Mississippi. Meanwhile, Government spokesmen tried to pooh-pooh it

all as, quote "a natural phenomenon."



   The Bolsheviks here still are not quite sure what happened to the

Columbia, but they do know that as far as Space is concerned, the

Shuttle Program is their only hope. They have three more orbital

shuttles hidden away at White Sands, and they intend to launch them

all no matter what the odds may be, so the NASA cover-up of the

Columbia disaster went right on according to plan.



   Two years ago I first revealed the existence of man-made genetic

replicas of human beings. I was widely disbelieved and condemned at

the time, just as I knew I would be. But they do exist, and once again

they have been pressed into service before our eyes.



   Tuesday morning, April 14, genetic replicas called "Synthetics" of

the late astronauts John Young and Robert Crippen were readied at

White Sands. They were programmed to take a computerized ride on the

training shuttle "Enterprise." The Young and Crippen entities boarded

the Enterprise, which was mounted on top of the launch 747. After

rocket fuel was loaded for the shuttle, the 747 took off and headed

west, avoiding commercial air traffic. The launch 747 headed out over

the Pacific until it was several hundred miles west of Los Angeles.

Then it turned back toward the east toward the California coast. On

television we were told that the non-existent Columbia was re-entering

from orbit. Meanwhile the "Enterprise", re-labeled "Columbia", cut

loose from the 747 and fired its rockets. It sped up to a speed of

nearly 6,000 miles per hour, then we watched it as it made that

dramatic race in from the sea to a precise computer landing at Edwards

Air Force Base. It was all timed to agree as closely as possible with

the official NASA timetable.



   Even so, a technical mistake was made that morning and as a result

we were told that the Shuttle would land six minutes early. My

friends, in space flight, six minutes might as well be a year. Six

minutes in orbit corresponds to nearly a 2,000 mile error in the

location of the Shuttle, but on TV nobody bothered to question it.

They all just smiled and said, "Isn't it a lovely day to watch the

Shuttle."



   After the dramatic Shuttle landing, former astronaut Gene Cernan

expressed surprise on ABC television. He said the Shuttle simply did

not look scorched enough for a ship that had re-entered from orbit.

Likewise, when the synthetics called Young and Crippen emerged, they

did not act like men who had been weightless for two days. Instead

they bounded down the access steps and pranced around with restless

energy, but no one questioned it. After all, we had seen the Shuttle

landing for ourselves; and as that old saying goes, "Seeing is

believing."



   Now it's time for my Last Minute Summary.



   My friends, the score in America's Space Shuttle Program is now

"One down and three to go." Three more shuttles like the Columbia are

waiting their turn in the desert at White Sands. Each will have the

name "Columbia" painted on its side. The real Columbia is now dead,

along with its crew; but thanks to these mechanical clones, the

Columbia will live again in the public eye.



   I have given you as many details as time will allow about the

Columbia disaster and its cover-up by NASA. The point of it all is not

whether Russia is ahead or America is ahead in the Space race. The

point is that we are being deceived. We are being given a false sense

of security and a false sense of confidence. We are being led like

sheep to slaughter into nuclear war and Bolshevik dictatorship.



   If we choose to believe their lies, then they will succeed, they

will destroy our way of life, and enslave the few of us who survive

their war. OR, we can learn to do as our Lord Jesus Christ taught us

to do long ago. We can learn to look for the truth, cherish the truth,

and believe the Truth. If we do that, my friends, then we will always

be free.



   Until next month, God willing, this is Dr. Beter. Thank you, and

may God bless each and every one of you.
