Final Statement by the Journal of Cosmology on the
Hoover Microfossil-Meteorite Discovery
All Roads Lead to the O'Bama White House
The following is a final statement of the facts as we know them:
1) In 2007--NASA approved the submission of the Hoover Microfossil-
Meteorite data for publication.
2) The IJA had received a paper by Hoover, but it was never reviewed
as it was determined to be too lengthy.
3) Hoover wrote the paper submitted to JOC in Sept-October 2010 and
submitted it in the first week of November of 2010.
4) The Hoover paper submitted to JOC, and the data it contained, had
never been reviewed or rejected by any other journal, but contained
the data approved by NASA in 2007 for publication.
5) The Hoover paper was reviewed, and subsequently underwent a major
revision and was resubmitted in November, and again reviewed and
approved. But it was not immediately published in JOC as is our normal
standard procedure.
6) For the next 4 months the Hoover paper was critically examined by a
Referee/Editor who went over it line by line, even enlarging the
photos to pixel size to search for any evidence of tampering or fraud
or anything which would make the data suspect. The data looked solid.
7) We were well aware the paper would be controversial, and were
braced for slanders and defamatory attacks.
8) Before it was published the Hoover paper was made available to the
scientific community for comment.
9) It was published in the first week of March and immediately met
with an avalanche of slanderous attacks, led by a NASA administrator
at Ames Research Center and a fake expert, and two media outlets with
ties to NASA.
10) JOC quickly became the target of these attacks, now led by NASA's
Chief Scientist, who, to our astonishment, brazenly lied about the
history of the Hoover paper and about JOC and its review policies. In
so doing he maliciously disputed the legitimacy of the work of two
NASA Senior Scientists Science Directorates who have published five
peer reviewed articles in JOC, and over 30 NASA scientists and 4 NASA
astronauts who have also published their own peer reviewed work in
this same journal. JOC has in fact been guest edited by a NASA Senior
Scientist Science Directorate, and another senior scientist at NASA/
JPL. NASA's chief scientist was willing to discredit anyone and
everyone including top scientists at NASA, in order to destroy the
legitimacy of the Hoover discovery.
11) Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe spoke by phone with Richard Hoover the
weekend the article was published, and reported that Hoover was
clearly "terrified". Hoover reported that NASA officials had been
threatening him and "shouting" and "yelling and screaming" at him.
12). Over the following week we received 24 commentaries on the Hoover
article. Most of these were sympathetic.
13). JOC is so confident of the data the editors at Science and Nature
magazine were invited to cooperate in an independent review. These
editors were uncooperative.
14). To date, there is no evidence the Hoover data is not accurate.
The preponderance of evidence is these are microfossils of
microorganisms which are extraterrestrial in origin and which
colonized these structures and the parent bodies, before this planet
was formed.
15). We had anticipated the results would be met with hoots of
derision. We anticipated slander and defamation. We believed that much
of this would be motivated by ignorance, fear, and religious beliefs.
We did not anticipate that NASA's chief scientist would lead a slander
campaign and boldly make up lies about the Hoover paper and JOC. We
frankly wondered why he would dare make up easily disproved lies and
why he did not fear consequences from officials higher up.
16). On Friday, March 18, 2011, Dr. Rudolf Schild, Editor-in-Chief of
JOC spoke at length with Richard Hoover and learned that the White
House, i.e. the offices of President O'Bama, became a party to this
issue almost immediately after the story broke. The exact nature of
this involvement is unknown to us.
17). We have been concerned that Richard Hoover might be forced to
recant. He has not done so yet. However, it is also clear he has been
under enormous pressure at NASA by powerful forces which wish him to
disavow his findings.
These are the facts as we know them. We believe the data is real. The
implications profound.
We have to consider if a mountain-sized chunk of this planet was
sheared from the surface and tossed into the abyss, only to land
billions of years from now on another planet, that this chunk of
expelled Earth would be peppered with the fossilized remains of
various organisms. Hoover found fossils of microorganisms which had
lived in the parent bodies which may have included planets older than
Earth.
The Hoover data, by itself, does not mean life on Earth came from
other planets. It simply means we are not alone--and the implications
are staggering. However, based on the evidence compiled in an
inexpensive book, "The Discovery of Alien ExtraTerrestrial life" and
which includes Hoover's discovery and landmark paper, and the
discoveries of other independent scientists, the conclusions are
threefold:
We are not alone. Life is everywhere. Life on Earth, came from other
planets.
JOC never intended to take the safe road. Our goal is to advance
science. We are open to all ideas, even those we disagree with, so
long as they are backed up by science and scholarship. This is why JOC
has become one of the most read scientific journals in the world.
It takes courage to lead. It also takes intelligence to recognize when
it is time to move on. The involvement of the offices of the president
of the United States in this sordid affair, and with all its power, is
most distressing. What the motives are, is unknown to us.
It is the intention of JOC to say no more about the Hoover paper and
to ignore all further inquiries; unless backed into a corner and
forced to respond.
With 14 million hits for March alone, JOC has had a major impact, and
has become one of the most read scientific journals in the world. Our
goal is to advance science.
