Somebody Else Is On The Moon. And so, of course, Bach sketches somewhat resembled my own made in 1975 for the benefit of Mr- Axelrod. Not long after Bach's article, a Ufologist friend of mine visited me, and brought along a book published by some Moon enthusiast in Japan, and which, of course, was all in Japanese. But the book was about structures on the Moon seen through a telescope. The structures were very hard to identify with the naked eye, but the book provided sketches of what the photos contained. With this help, it became credible that there were structures on the moon. I eventually tracked down the telephone number of Felix Bach and had several conversations with him. In short, with a small telescope, it takes a "very experienced eye" to separate the vague structures from the lunar background. This development caused me to consider TELESCOPES, and the details that could be acquired by them- The matter of telescopes will be discussed in the following section. As a result of the Bach 1991 article, memories of the Axelrod affair now welled up. They had all along been lodged somewhere in memory, but I was somewhat astonished that it took Bach's article to bring them to the surface. The Axelrod affair had jolted me in more ways than one. Why, then, was it not easy to remember? One would have thought that the memories would constantly have been trembling on the edge of immediate recall. The second development that helped resurface the Axelrod memories was the advent of Camcorders available to the public. Before easy-to-purchase video equipment became available, there had, of course, been many still photos of UFO crafts. It was easy to discredit the authenticity of the still photos simply by suggesting that they had been altered in well-equipped photo labs. This suggestion was cast in cement when SOME photos were proven to be faked, which spread the assumption that all photos "must have been produced" likewise. Thousands of independently achieved video footage can hardly be said to have been faked. It might be possible to do so, but only with the help of rather significant amounts of money and extensive digital computer techniques. During 1991, Earthsiders worldwide had begun to accumulate miles and miles of Camcorder footage of UFOs, many of the craft being simultaneously taped by several recorders, but from different angles and often miles apart. As a result, a lot of the video footage was shown on various TV shows specialising in oddities - such as Current Affair, etc. While the increasing availability of live video footage is gross in size and dimensions and unavoidable implications, the net result is that
