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


Anna Weatherup – Be Thou My Vision

An evening pause: It all depends on how you define God. To me, God is the entire universe, of which I am part. To recognize such a reality is terribly humbling, and leads to wisdom.

The support of my readers through the years has given me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Four years ago, just before the 2020 election I wrote that Joe Biden's mental health was suspect. Only in this year has the propaganda mainstream media decided to recognize that basic fact.

 

Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Even today NASA and Congress refuse to recognize this reality.

 

In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the 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. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

 

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.

    Robert,
    While I absolutely respect your belief, to say that God is the entire universe is to actually diminish who the person of God is.
    While the universe, at least to us little humans, is infinite, the God who created the universe with a Word, is infinitely larger than our infinite universe. That same God, who loved us rebellious and lost little creatures so much, that He became one of us, born in a manger, and sacrificed Himself on a cross so that we could all be with Him one day and forever.
    THAT is humbling! That is what Christmas is all about. We celebrate the God who became a man to save all men!

    Merry Christmas

    wayne … I don’t know whether that video is funny or devastating … I am an anti- “karen” (my favorite line delivered by the guy in that beautiful English accent: “There’s a name for that demographic!”) in that I am likely to get mouthy or derisive with people who ARE wearing masks in their cars or outside, here in my part of Ca where the weather is beautiful and temps are in the mid 70s.

    I yell “Hey, 99.9something percent of all of us are fine after a year of this lockdown — can’t you do math? Isn’t 99.9something percent okay good for you?” When I walk up to a door with a sign on it about wearing a mask, I flip the sign off as a matter of course. I burst out laughing and point at those wearing masks outdoors or in a car, or if I’m driving I’ll slow down and stare at masked pedestrians like they have lobsters coming out of their ears, and then laugh … I feel it is my duty to make things as unpleasant as possible for mask social distancing believers. They need to be stopped because they are no longer just annoying, they have become bloody dangerous, and I don’t mean “bloody” in the English profanity sense, I mean it as in: If the Karens (many are men) continue being bossy jerks, there will be blood shed.
