Upcoming lectures
Since one of my readers asked about my future speaking appearances, I thought I’d note them here, on the main page. I will be speaking at three different venues in the next month, as follows:
- Lecture: December 10, 2016, 2:00-4:00 pm, Tubac Presidio State Historic Park, Tubac, Arizona. Topic: “Apollo 8: Mission to the Moon”.
- Lecture: December 14, 2016, 11:30 am, for the Vandenberg section of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Topic: “Predicting the future of space travel, based on the past”.
- Lecture: January 19, 2017, for the St. Louis section of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Topic: “Predicting the future of space travel, based on the past”.
The first is open to the public, but there is a $10 admission fee to the park. While the last two are free and also open to the public, I do not know what the public must do to gain access to the middle event at Vandenberg Air Force Base, as the location I think will be inside the base.
As always, all my appearances, including these, are listed in the right column below.
Readers!
My annual February birthday fund-raising drive for Behind the Black is now over. Thank you to everyone who donated or subscribed. While not a record-setter, the donations were more than sufficient and slightly above average.
As I have said many times before, I can’t express what it means to me to get such support, especially as no one is required to pay anything to read my work. Thank you all again!
For those readers who like my work here at Behind the Black and haven't contributed so far, please consider donating or subscribing. 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

Very cool!
>Hoping the “audio-visual folks” are recording these!
My son and I just watched “Apollo Thirteen” again the other night.
Every time I watch it and there are references to Apollo 8, it reminds me how lucky NASA was to have that oxygen tank explode on 13 instead of 8….. Or, for that matter, on the way back on any of the other moon missions.
