I'd have to say that if the government had such organisations, they wouldn't let people release books when they are trying to keep them, 'Above Top Secret', wouldn't make any sense and woulddefeat the object of having such an organisation.
Come on people, were really not that stupid are we?

Show us your "well researched" material on this "Above Top Secret" space program.

How come Nobody ever talks about the Navy's space program?
In 1963, von Braun reflected on the history of rocketry, and said of Goddard's work: "His rockets ... may have been rather crude by present-day standards, but they blazed the trail and incorporated many features used in our most modern rockets and space vehicles."[8] Goddard confirmed his work was used by von Braun in 1944, shortly before the Nazis began firing V-2s at England.
Standing in front of the rocket in the launch tower on September 23, 1935, are (left to right): Albert Kisk, Goddard's brother-in-law and machinist; Harry F. Guggenheim; Dr. Robert H. Goddard; Col. Charles A. Lindbergh and N.T. Ljungquist, machinist. Charles Lindbergh, an advocate for Goddard and his research, helped secure a grant from the Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Foundation in 1930. With that money Goddard and his wife moved to Roswell, New Mexico, where he could conduct research and launch rockets while avoiding the scrutiny and criticism of his colleagues and the press.
Proposals for space-related activity continued to be developed by the Navy, Army and Air Force, but all such proposals were opposed by Vannevar Bush, head of the powerful joint Research and Development Board. (Bush also opposed development of rocket boosters for long range missiles.) In 1948, the Secretary of Defense reported, with respect to space...
...still the truth cannot be told.

I wonder where you are Chakotay?
You have been gone a long time.
And this is a very odd last post for you to make. Very odd.
Because I actually have a very good idea what you were alluding to possibly.
this?
this too
I wonder what it was you were going to say? I guess I will just have to hope you decide to return one day so we can find out. Hopefully nothing bad happened...
Hope to see you soon.
Well, muzz, strangely enough, I did find the post where Chak states he is deploying; it is in the first paragraph of his last post in this thread; I, too, think highly of our friend, and hope he returns swiftly and healthy to rejoin our ranks...
