  • The life and death of Jack Parsons is stranger than fiction. An intense commitment to Black magic and the occult, a shared lover with L. Ron Hubbard, and a founding father of rocket science-Jack’s curiosity and mischief-making propelled him to success and eventually drove him to his death.
    But it’s the details of his death that still remain unknown...was it an accident... suicide, murder or the work of Satan? In this episode, we reexamine the last days of this rocket man and attempt to solve the mystery of what really sent him to the moon. Join us.

    There’s 1 incorrect point. Jack Parsons began testing rockets at the age of 15 at Devils Gate in Arroyo Seco years prior before Caltech. He was from Pasadena so obviously he knew of the “Devils Gate” while growing up. His fascination with the occult started much earlier than we are told in this presentation.

    Hubbard conned Parsons out of $400k not $10k! Hubbard then takes the money and Parson's girl to sail around Miami. Parson gets the word from Crowley that he was duped. Parson's performs the Mars invocation (black magic ritual) which then leads to Hubbard crashing the boat and get arrested. This story is crazy!

    Another interesting thing about Jacks death is that a day or 2 before there were omens. It's been a long time since I read "Sex & Rockets", but I remember there was a shattering sound at the front door. He ran & opened the door & saw that the front porch lamp that hung from the ceiling had fell & broke. He said he saw a dark entity come out. I think that had something to do w/his premonition of death being near. Idk if he just finished a ritual, but that happened. Also his manifestos & essays are in a book called "Freedom is a Two-Edged Sword". One side is Responsibility & the other Freedom. You can't have one w/out the other!

    One last thing, 'cause this one is really, really interesting! Jack told Cameron that there's already a Universal Federation type of thing. There are all sorts of extraterrestrial beings that are in contact w/each other, us included. Some of them are even etherial, not tangible. Cameron explained it to her grandson (my ex-husband) that it was like the movie Star Wars. There's a whole system out there. Jack was already talking about bending space & time, teleportation before everyone else. He said that is how these extraterrestrials get around. This was in the 30's or 40's when he was talking about this.

      My parents asked me about aliens when I was 4 and I insisted they were real and they were here.
      So yeah, I totally believe you. Those scenes where there's all different kinds of aliens in the bar together are taken from real experiences.

    Id also heard another story that, the Babylon Working Ritual that Parsons and Hubbard performed was actually done in Roswell NM where they opened a Portal to another dimension in 1947. Supposedly he was asked by a High Ranking Officer, in the AirForce, if the Aliens that crashed there later that year, had anything to do with what theyd done. Parsons said "YES, i believe it did". Supposedly the ONLY people who could close an interdimensional portal were the people who opened it up. Unfortunately, Parsons died, or was killed, before they could close it. 🤔

    The whole theme to the story is I think they knew how to tap into things because they themselves were being watched for bad behavior.They were working on transfer for one being to the next for a change of identity and is were L.Ron.Hubbard came in because Hubbard had knowledge from the Navy.The U.S.Navy I believe operates heavily within the occult for it's own purposes but the U.S.Navy will not admit to being involved with occuliist.Remember the jailbreak with Timothy Leary.He broke out of prison through the camera system,with the help of the weather men underground.People can actually move from camera to camera and go into another new body.

    Great video. The Jack Parsons Rabbit hole goes much deeper. Some think that JPL actually stands for the Jack Parsons Laboratory. He was a member of the Ordo Templi Orientis along with people like JR Oppenheimer and LR Hubbard. Read the Playboy interview of LR Hubbard’s son if you want your mind blown. Also Carmen had talked about things like Oppenheimer putting an aborted baby in a containment chamber called “Jumbo” to try to usher in the end of the world by trying to incarnate the Hindu Goddess of destruction Sheeva with the atomic blast at the Trinity Test site at 33 degrees North Latitude during the Manhattan Project. And that’s just a few feet down into the rabbit hole, it goes much deeper.

I personally think that the cops killed him, that's what Cameron said. She was down the street at Jacks moms 5 minutes away from their house on Orange. They were on their way to Mexico then Israel. I think Jack was going to Israel for a job. All their bags were packed and they were suppounderneath

    Yes, suspicious. When he said "...not finished yet" i think he meant that chemical's were not completely mixed; thus, the mixture was not explosive, yet. So, it should never have exploded. The resulting explosion was very powerful. Yet his body was more/less intact, thus actual bomb location must have been at least 10 feet away from him. Hmmm....
