2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.

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. And if you buy the books through the ebookit links, I get a larger cut and I get it sooner.


The loss of skepticism in science

In April I taped a half hour television interview with George Noory for his subscription-based video show, Beyond Belief. Below is a clip from that interview, where I describe the terrible state of climate research, and how politics is destroying the very heart of what science stands for. Too many people are no longer open-minded. Rather than relay on the data they push their theories instead.

Robert Zimmerman discusses the truth about climate change with George Noory!

Genesis cover

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 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

    It’s great to actually see you and not just read your website or listen to you on John Bachelor’s radio show. You stated several excellent points on the state of science today, and I only hope the millenials that watch Noory will take your comments to heart and cypher at bit on them.

    Noory’s show, including the other hosts of Coast To Coast (his radio show) discuss what all others in the media are forbidden / will never discuss or talk about, and its not whether UFO’s exist or not, a little more terrestrial in nature.

    I am not sure whether the mellenials will have an advantage or not due to the availability of technology. There may have only been a short window between the initial implementation of technology (video, internet, computer manipulation of information) and the ability to really shape and control the information (or disinformation), images and “facts” that are available.

    Will they own it and be able to discern “truth” and the scientific method or will it be used to own them?

    We will have to wait and see.
