Final week of July fund-raising campaign celebrating Behind the Black’s 16th anniversary
Scroll down for new stories.
The July fund-raising campaign is now in its final week. I have refrained from revising this post and begging for support up until now because I really hate begging for support.
Unfortunately, I must now do this, because this July campaign has been an extremely poor one. It seems that support is down, even as my traffic is up.
If you haven’t donated this year yet but enjoy reading my webpage regularly, please consider supporting me in some small amount. I do not take advertising, I have no sponsors (other than my readers), and I require no payment to read what I write. Your support is the only thing that keeps this website going.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are five ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (obtained the “Copy Zelle Email” box in the tip jar). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to:

You can also support me by buying one of my books, as noted in the boxes interspersed throughout the webpage or shown in the menu above.
This post will remain at the top of the page until the end of the month.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
Considering the state of “science” in the world these days, Behind The Black is a beacon of sanity and truth. For those of us who grew up with the Mercury Seven, Gemini and Apollo, there are never too many Cool Image Times, especially Cassini. The book reviews are appreciated. Above all, the truth.
Rush Limbaugh had his Essential Stack Of Stuff.
Behind the Black is our essential stack.
Thank you for what you do here at Behind The Black!
I’ve been meaning to send you a donation – the fantastic performance of God Bless America by Kate Smith prompted me to get off my duff and “Zelle” $50 to you.
