About this episode
Richard C. Hoagland presents explosive revelations about the upcoming Mission to Mars film and NASA's involvement in its production. Hoagland details how Disney's film received NASA script approval, making this a NASA-sanctioned production about the face on Mars. Director Brian De Palma mysteriously disappeared from all press events following the premiere, refusing interviews despite having a $120 million film at stake. Hoagland reveals two different trailers exist, one showing the actual Viking face on Mars with narration stating the government concealed evidence for 25 years. The discussion examines the connection between De Palma and his late brother Bruce, a physicist who worked closely with Hoagland's research. NASA's strange silence and the film's embedded references to Enterprise Mission research, including repeated appearances of 19.5 degrees, suggest something unprecedented is unfolding in Hollywood's relationship with space agency secrets.
