What follows is a timeline of events, as I've come up with them so far, that lead up to the apocalypse and beyond. I would love to hear anyone's suggestions about this; I am not a walking repository of conspiracy theories, and I'm sure I'm missing a truckload that could fit. More than that, I would love to see what connections anyone else might be able to make to really make this worthy of a YouTube conspiracy video. So without further ado...WAKE UP AND OPEN YOUR EYES, SHEEPLE!
1938,
December 17 The New Swabia
Expedition, a large-scale, five-month German expedition into the Queen Maud
Land region of Antarctica. While mapping the area, they discover a vast network
of warm water underground caves extending miles below the surface.
1939,
May 23 Germany begins
constructing a city-sized base beneath the Antarctic ice sheet codenamed Base
211 but more colloquially called New Berlin.
1939,
November 13 A German construction
crew at Base 211 stumbles upon a crashed alien craft frozen in the ice. New
Berlin becomes a technological R&D center focused on reverse engineering
the spacecraft.
1942,
December 2 Erwin Rommel’s agents
enter a series of secret catacombs beneath the Great Mosque of Kairouan.
Therein, they locate a pair of ancient, broken tablets said to have been
brought to Tunisia by barbary pirates circa 1590. The tablets’ history prior to
this point is lost in antiquity, but their writing was clearly in an early
Proto-Sinaitic orthography laced with cursive Egyptian hieroglyphs.
1942,
December 23 After a consultation
with Karl Ernst Krafft, Heinrich Himmler orders the tablets brought to Berlin.
1943,
January 6 The two 1’ x 2’
lapis lazuli tablets arrive in Berlin, where Karl Ernst Krafft receives them
and sets to translating them.
1943,
April 6 The Office
of Strategic Services (OSS) creates the Department of Historical Antiquities
Research (DHAR) as a black organization dedicated to finding out why Hitler was
so interested in the supernatural and finding ways to use it against him. This
would eventually develop into the Department of Antiquities Verification,
Investigation, and Defense (DAVID) under the CIA.
1943,
July 17 Karl Ernst
Krafft completes his translation of the ancient artifact. Within its religious
texts, there resides a potent spell for defeating any enemy. The price of the
ritual is extreme, however, so Himmler secretly secures the tablets as a last
resort.
1944,
June 6 The Western
Allies launch the largest amphibious invasion in history as part of Operation
Overlord. The tides of war begin turning against Germany.
1944,
August 24 New Berlin is
abandoned and the Antarctic Nazi research facility is moved across the
continent via a vast honeycomb of caves deep within the crust to beneath the
Transantarctic Mountains and reestablished somewhere in the vicinity of Mount
Kirkpatrick (see the Vela Incident, below).
1944,
December 16 The Ardennes Offensive
begins; Himmler has Krafft and a handful of his associates begin preparations
for the ritual hidden within the tablets’ glyphs.
1945,
January 8 Karl Earnst
Krafft dies of typhus after being arrested for treason by the Gestapo. His
apprentices continue his work.
1945,
April 30 On Walspurgis
afternoon, Adolf Hitler completes the ritual, using his and his wife’s life
forces to power the spell. The war ended. Germany was defeated. Somewhere
beyond the orbit of Neptune, a comet was nudged.
1946,
August 26 Rear Admiral
Richard E. Byrd, Jr. ostensibly leads Task Force 68, comprising of 4,700 men,
13 ships, and 33 aircraft on a mission to establish the Antarctic research
base, Little America. Unofficially, it was an offensive intended to root out
the last Nazi stronghold and put an end to any future attempts to resurrect the
Reich.
1946,
December 30 Operation Highjump
discover the remnants of Base 211 abandoned. They begin exploring the miles
upon miles of tunnels beneath the ice.
1947,
February 16 Task Force 68 comes
under attack by what can only be described as flying saucers. The USS Pine Island along with four other
ships were sunk and later stricken from the naval records for “no apparent
reason.”
1947,
February 22 Task Force 68
withdraws from Antarctica.
1947,
July 8 A Nazi
aircraft is shot down over New Mexico, near Roswell. The US government
intentionally gives flimsy stories about weather balloons and contradictory
reports regarding the recovery of an alien body. In truth, the body of a
blonde-haired, blue-eyes Argentinean national was recovered from the wreckage;
“alien” was initially a reference to immigration status.
1947,
Summer The Air Force
continues to secretly perpetuate the UFO myth in the media while publicly
denying a flying saucer was recovered. Meanwhile, the wreckage and body are
transported to Area 51 for further study.
1950s Cold War
pressures to reverse engineer Nazi technology grow more intense and drive the
expansion of Area 51 and the development of additional sister black sites like
Area 25 – where captured Nazi cloaking technology is later adapted for mounting
on US Naval vessels.
1951,
January 7 Wolf Rüdiger
Hess, son of Rudolf Hess and apprentice to Karl Earnst Krafft, finally uncovers
why the spell cast by Hitler on Walspurgis failed to destroy the enemies of
Germany: The ritual worked, but on a timescale other than intended. Somewhere
among the stars so valued by Krafft, Hess, and Himmler, a comet shifted its
orbit, which in half a century will nudge an already mapped asteroid into a
collision course with Earth. The impact will destroy the Allies and more than
decimate the planet’s population. The slate will be wiped clean for Hitler’s
Reich to rebuild.
1952,
April 29 The first of
many fortified Nazi bunker complexes called the gewölbe des wissens or “vaults of knowledge” are established as
both an archive and a way for the Reich der Menschheit to survive the coming
apocalypse. It is through this system of vaults scattered across the world that
they intend to bring about the anstieg
der götter and establish a new and everlasting reich.
1955,
August 3 Having learned
of the Vaults, the CIA restructures DPHAR into the Department of Antiquities Verification,
Investigation, and Defense (DAVID) and charges it with uncovering what the
Nazis are doing. Much funding is funneled into DAVID as a black project
ostensibly to fight the spread communism. Senator Joseph McCarthy is one of the
project’s biggest proponents.
1961,
May 7 The Nazis
successfully land one of their own on the dark side of the moon in preparations
to establish a lunar outpost. They want a backup plan for when the asteroid
finally strikes Earth.
1961,
May 25 President Jack
Kennedy declares that America will put a man on the moon by the end of the
decade.
1969,
July 19 The
decreasingly popular President Nixon gives the final authorization to air
footage of what the administration, backed by NASA, claim is Neil Armstrong and
Buzz Aldrin landing on the moon. In truth, this was all falsified as part of an
agreement between Nixon and the Lunar Nazis to boost his ratings and keep the
moon free of non-Aryans.
1972,
December 10 Apollo 17 arrives in
lunar orbit. In a particularly Nixonian backstab, the capsule is armed with a
nuclear warhead, despite Nixon’s communiques that the mission was another PR
stunt to boost his ratings with undeniable pictures of the Earth from the Moon.
America finally puts men on the moon for the first time.
1972,
December 13 Ronald Ellwin “Ron”
Evans, Jr. launches a ten megaton nuclear warhead at the Nazi based on the dark
side of the moon, presumably destroying it utterly.
1979,
September 22 Israel, in an attempt
to destroy what they believed to be the Antarctic Nazi fortress, detonate a
nuclear weapon in Queen Maud Land. Unfortunately, they don’t realize the Nazis are
primarily on the other side of the continent. Still, the operation succeeds in
sealing a portion of the tunnels and obliterates the remnants of the original
Base 211
1985,
January 6 Martin
Fleichmann receives a letter from Jgor Havel, an old friend from
Czechoslovakia. Within it, Havel claims to have infiltrated a gewölbe des wissens and stolen
1985,
November 13 Havel manages to leave
Czechoslovakia and find Fleichmann at a symposium in London. There, he hands
Fleichmann a copy of the plans for a cold fusion generator and the principles
behind it. Most of this is somewhat beyond Fleichman’s understanding at the
time, but he begins to skeptically read it through.
1988,
February 12 Martin Fleichmann and
Stanley Pons devise a cold fusion experiment in hopes of understanding and
reverse engineering the Nazi technology. Naturally, Fleichmann withholds where
he received his information – mostly for fear of being called a fake or
conspiracy loon.
1989,
March 23 Fleichmann and
Pons hold a press conference to announce their findings on working cold fusion.
Afraid the existence of the Nazi Vaults would come to light, the government
quickly covers this up by sabotaging attempts to reproduce the experiment and
manipulating the media. Fleichmann and Pons are ridiculed for their claims.
1997,
March 7 Climatologists
within the government issue a later-redacted report that suggests the melting
of the Ross Ice Shelf may be the result of excess heat from the Nazi fortress.
2011,
November 5 Keck Observatory identifies
a near-Earth asteroid measuring some six miles across on an impact course with
Earth. Impact is estimated to be in 2023.
2012 NASA
begins laying the groundwork for the Asteroid Redirect Mission under the guise
as being the first step toward putting men on Mars.
2013,
February 28 Pope Benedict XVI
resigns from the Papacy under pressure from the College of Cardinals, who
having recently discovered his ties to the Nazi vaults. The Pope had been using
his supreme access to research and ship some of the many occult artifacts accumulated
beneath the Vatican. While no one is particularly surprised by the actions of
the former Hitler’s Youth member, they can’t allow this to come to light, and
cover it up.
2013,
March 13 The papal enclave
elects Jorge Mario Bergoglio – a Jesuit – the 266th Pope in hopes that he can
both mend the Roman Catholic Church’s public image and, more importantly, to
assess the occult thread presented by Benedict’s actions.
2021,
October 1 After numerous
budget cuts, political infighting, and development delays, the SLS finally
lifts off. At T+12 minutes, an unknown power surge triggers an explosion in the
main fuel tank of the Orion spacecraft resulting in the complete loss of the
vehicle. No live are lost, but NASA suspends the program pending a full design
review. Sabotage is never officially mentioned as a cause.
2023,
April 29 The asteroid,
later named Surtr, slams into atmosphere, where it breaks into three smaller
pieces. The first slams into London, obliterating the city. The second
vaporizes Moscow with a Tunguska-like explosion, and the third skips into
Washington D. C., where it leaves nothing but a miles-wide crater and sends a
massive tidal wave across the Atlantic into France and Spain. The resulting
dust cloud blots out the sun, plunging the Earth into a mini ice age.
2025 Crops are
failing worldwide and nations can no longer feed their people. Governments
begin collapsing into anarchy.
2028,
January 1 A mere five
years after the impact, 40% of the world’s population is dead from starvation,
war, and disease. The cloud blanket still blocks out the sun. People are
calling it the Long Winter.
2044,
June 6 A generation
after the Surtr impact, humanity is broken and scattered. And the Nazi vaults
begin to open. The first city to be reclaimed is Berlin.
2100 Now, the
time of the Fourth Reich is near. The spell cast by Hitler's suicide brought
the end of the world, absolutely obliterating his opponents. The descendants of
the Nazis have crawled from the holes they hid in for decades with a vast bank
of knowledge amassed in the days leading to the End Times. They toiled
secretly, building infrastructure from the wreckage of the world, created
powerful city-states from which to unleash the inevitable tide of war. Outside
their walls, people fight to survive on the carcasses of the nations that once
opposed the Axis. Soon the time will come to reclaim the world, to cull the
impure, to build the Reich as it was intended to be. Until then, they wait,
ever reaching out with their cold influence on the budding towns and cities
near their strongholds.
So that's what I have so far. What connections don't flow? What conspiracies am I missing? What would you like to see added in?
