The Moon Was Inhabited 200,000 Years Ago

Intelligent, highly-artistic beings may have inhabited the Moon around 200,000 years ago, says geologist Dr. Morris Charles, who worked at NASA for 23 years, until 1987. He says that the Apollo 11 crew returned home a 10-inch (25.4-centimeter) statue of what could best be described as an angel.

The artifact was removed from one of the lunar rock samples that astronauts brought to Earth in 1969. Analysis of the object indicates that it has been hand-polished to a silvery metallic sheen. The statue depicts a humanoid female with wing-like appendages, UTAOT reports.

Interestingly, the Sumerian culture referred to such beings even in the 18th century BCE. The winged deities these people worshiped were called Annunaki, and you would have to exercise a lot of will power to ignore the fact that most Sumerian statues are depicted wearing astronaut-like helmets.

Officials from NASA have denied the existence of the statues, but Dr. Charles has allowed reporters to take pictures of the artifact, after he received it from people inside the American space agency. Since this is an extraordinary claim, you should take it with a fair amount of skepticism.

The site you link to has a post from weeks ago showing this to be completely fake. Not that you'd really need any proof since everything about this is ridiculous.
