Sitchin as NASA consultor

[Jairo]

I suppose this claim was debated somewhere here before. Do you have any information?

The CTs I know don't have any evidence of this, so I don't even know how this claim appeared.

Thanks.

You seem to have forgotten that you asked the same question here (http://www.bautforum.com/showthread.php/18933-Zecharia-Sitchin-NASA-consultor?) 7 years ago. :clap:

Maybe they are confudled about Robert Harrington.
Who wasn't NASA.


There's a Dutch expression that translates as "He did hear the sound of the bell, but doesn't know where the clapper hangs."
CTs seem to have that a lot.

I do remember, but the links on the first reply are dead and I was unable to find an answer actually written in that thread.

So I tried again.

I tried searching NASA's root domain with Google. So far the only mentions are on the "Ask an Astrobiologist" page. There's also a "Z SITCHIN" in the list of names launched with Stardust (http://stardust.jpl.nasa.gov/overview/microchip/names2s23.html). :)

Allegedly his brother, Dr. Amnon Sitchin, worked for the JPL, so it's possible that someone conflated them.

I was in the top 10 percent of Stardust web participants. So I guess that makes me more of a NASA consultant tha Stitchin.

Well, there are other possibilities.

Some years back, I went in to buy a set of tires. NASA employees and contractors got a 5% discount, and the store manager wanted me to get it. But, I didn't work for NASA.

However, I was refereeing soccer matches at the NASA rec center.

So, I qualified as a "NASA contractor."

Just to clarify, this did not make me privy to any top secret Apollo information.

Hey... that makes me a GM consultant too...
Last time I got a car the salesman said he can get me the GM supplier discount. I replied "me too".

[Jairo]

So, not even Sitchin himself claimed to be a NASA consultant?

Dude! How did you even know that?

You can't possibly do a background check of every new post that shows up here.

At the bottom of this page there is a box labelled "Similar Threads". I'm guessing he noticed a near identical title by the same author there.

Well, Disney did some work with von Braun on the early US space program (link from NASA (http://history.msfc.nasa.gov/vonbraun/disney_article.html))

Von Braun served as technical advisor on three space-related television films that Disney produced in the 1950s. Together, von Braun (the engineer) and Disney (the artist) used the new medium of television to illustrate how high man might fly on the strength of technology and the spirit of human imagination. According to David R. Smith, Director of Archives at Walt Disney Productions, von Braun caught the attention of Disney senior producer Ward Kimball.

In 1965, 10 years after "Man in Space" first aired, von Braun invited Disney and others involved in the 1950s films to tour the Marshall Space Flight Center.[40] Von Braun and his employees clearly hoped that the reunion might rekindle Disney's enthusiasm for space exploration. One Marshall official wrote, "Out of this we would at least establish good will, and maybe (if we play our cards right) we could get something going that would be of tremendous benefit to MSFC, Apollo, NASA, and the entire space effort." [41] Von Braun himself wrote that the Disney tour "may easily result in a Disney picture about manned space flight." [42] On April 13, 1965, Walt Disney, his brother Roy, and other Disney executives visited the Marshall Center.[43] In an interview with The Huntsville Times, Disney said, "If I can help through my TV shows... to wake people up to the fact that we've got to keep exploring, I'll do it."[44] In reality, the tour at Marshall and other NASA sites did not inspire Disney to use the 1950s television series as a model for a new film about space exploration.

Disney actually has a very long history of collaboration with NASA, as described here (http://thisdayindisneyhistory.homestead.com/SpaceTravel.html).

Do the hoax believers ever bring that up? (In the same way they claim Kubrick was involved)

There's it least one youchuber who is obsessed with the idea.

I'm not aware that a claim to be a NASA consultant was among the nonsense spread by Sitchin. Perhaps you are confusing him with his fellow huckster Richard Hoagland who claimed to be a consultant for CBS at the time of the Apollo missions. You may appreciate this interesting material exposing Sitchin: http://www.sitchiniswrong.com/index.html

Sitchin as NASA consultor.


I'm trying to decide exactly what Sitchin could have been "consulting" on?

Just can't imagine what "use" NASA would have had for him.



In the other thread, linked in the 2nd post, A.DIM (who is as much of a Sitchin "authority" as there is on this board) stated that he had no knowledge of Sitchin being a NASA consultent....and that's good enough for me. :)

[Jairo]

I sent an e-mail to the webmaster of www.sitchin.com, Janet Sitchin, asking whether he ever claimed to be a NASA consultant. Some minutes later, she answered that he didn't.
