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 print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. 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


Home Depot joins Walgreens in dumping tens of thousands of employees from their employer heath insurance plan, because of Obamacare.

Finding out what’s in it: Home Depot joins Walgreens in dumping tens of thousands of employees from their employer heath insurance plan, because of Obamacare. Key quote:

The accelerating shift of workers to Obama’s taxpayer-funded network will likely drive up costs to taxpayers, disadvantage companies that try to pay for their employees’ health-care and make more voters dependent on health-care decisions made by Democratic officials and legislators. The switch is also making a mockery of Obama’s promise that Americans would be able to keep their pre-Obamacare insurance if they prefer. “If you like your health care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what,” he said in June 2009. [emphasis mine]

Obama’s statement in 2009 was an obvious lie and an insult to everyone’s intelligence. Unfortunately, it appears he estimated the intelligence of too many Americans quite rightly.

Readers!

 

Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.

 

I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either.

 

Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.

 

Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

 

You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four 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 (zimmerman at nasw dot org). 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

    Two scientific proofs of ET’s/Angels that the Press, Clergy and C2CAM won’t tell you.

    Professor Rips found the Book of the Seven Seals incripted in the Bible. In the oridgenal Hebrew and Aramaic. Called Bible Codes.
    Harold Gans said you need a Quantum Computer to do this. Who had one 3,300 years ago ?

    A phtografic study of the Shroud of Turin, the barrial cloth of Jesus, is a Three Dimensional, Molicular, Ditigtal, Scan. They said we can’t do that. Who did 2,000 years ago.

  • Sgt Myers,

    You are always welcome to comment here, but I am wondering what your comment has to do with Home Depot, Obamacare, and health insurance.

    I really prefer if people stay on topic.

    “. . . and make more voters dependent on health-care decisions made by Democratic officials and legislators. ”

    The flip side of ‘help’ is ‘control’. If the Left really wanted to ‘help’ people as they continually claim, they’d work to empower them. In every case, though, the Left seeks to concentrate power in the hands of a few, rather than diffuse power to the many, thereby creating the vassal state they so dearly covet. Sadly, the 2012 elections demonstrated that the majority of people in this country prefer the gilded and comfortable cage to the less certain but much more satisfying state of freedom.

    Having the total power of the IRS as the enforcer of this program is insane and now two companies have found the loophole in this program making sure all other companies know that they can do the same. I now find that I can no longer support such a poorly created program as the funding set aside is going to be far too small when all companies start using this loophole. Maybe the IRS will stop this loophole from being used as the hidden free wheeling agency that is backed up by the courts to only take on people that cannot afford to fight back.
