Where's it Going ?

OK, so I have to share this, as it seems just enuff of a thing to actually be plausible. I have worked for Uncle Sam in various ways for a high # of years, and have made some good friends. One of these friends. who has asked to remain Anon. says he was running a loader, on a AF base, and it was used to load the smaller Shuttle, the non-piloted one. He stated that "The loader failed" (the hydraulics of the arm failed) and he was asked to fix it. He goes and gets a tool kit, he shows back up, TWO cops (SP's) are circling the loader.
He approaches. "Halt". He badges past them, and he sets to work. He goes to shift the load to get the other end free to check the lines and one of the SP's says " Don't touch the crate". It's a wooden crate about 2 foot by 3 foot and about 1 1/2 feet high. My friend says "I need to get this up and over a little to check the hose and to bleed the system". Second SP calls it in and a third guy shows up…
Now there is a whispered conversation, SP asks my friend for his ID card AND his "Line Badge". He hands it over, 5 minutes go by, the third guy comes back and asks my friend what he needs. He tells him "the crate moved". Third guy says "Can't, too heavy". Now it's too small to be a bomb, or even a stack of warheads, which is what a loader is for, so the third guy gets a call and walks back and hands my friend his ID and Badge. "OK, you've been cleared". He then turns to the SP's and says "Unload the gold bars, fix the loader, load 'em back up, and get this done".
Now why are they loading up Gold bars to be shot into space ???

There's a theory that humans are just gold mining slaves for advanced alien species.

Why would aliens have them transported via bars? Why not melt them down first?
This is silly and doesn't make good sci-fi because it's not plausible. The realistic stuff is always more interesting.

Im sorry but are you seriously offering this as possible reality?

I fully comprehend that there is much we don't know and I am very open-minded and awake when it comes to plausible alternatives to mainstream thought. This, however is not plausible to me.
Sending gold to space to be pulverized and used to line the atmosphere of a hidden mystery planet so it's inhabitants can survive? This is not theory, it's science fiction. Being open to other realities also involves realizing when you're being had.

I just can't get behind the Nibiru thing. With the amount of eyes, governmental and independent, focused on the universe I feel there would be more compelling evidence then what I've seen.

I didn't downvote because I took it seriously. I downvoted because it wasn't funny.

If you wouldn't have said anything you could have come to Jewtopia...

Space is outside of international / UN treaty jurisdiction.
Will be brought down by russian cosmonaut and personally delivered to Putins office.
Pay off for drug running, war making, child prostitution and all the other things our dear leaders get up to.

Oh shit! The Bain Space Bank, Mitt's cashing in and headed to Kolob! If that mega job creator goes to his heaven planet early there will be an adverse effect on our economy, there will be at least ten thousand Chinese workers out of a job and one elderly Mexican lady known simply as "the help". Those jobs bringing hundreds of dollars to these economies annually. The effect will be an astronomical lowering of the poverty level across the world. I just pray to Elohim, the engineer fueling that ship takes in consideration that those gold bars have been salted with tungsten mysteriously while inside the vaults of the federal reserve. The added thrust to weight ratio would send that craft on a long cold oval shaped orbit around the entire solar system then back into sun which causes a reaction the gold lowers the suns temperature enough that the earth will cool at the rate of global warming and everything is fucking awesome. African children obtain a western diabetes rate, Canadians stop apologizing, and Omari finally gets his motion censor machine gun turrets mounted on the gates of the wall reddit built the orphans, but they ain't fucking needed no more. The end
Edit: sadly and mysteriously for reasons unknown, the ethnically diverse and very popular sub on reddit known lovingly as r/conspiratard suddenly fell silent as every single member fell victim to spontaneous human combustion. There mass funeral was yesterday they were survived by 43 grandmothers, one ferret, and ten cousin wife's. when interviewed Buzz Lightyear simply said "empty basements, empty basements everywhere."

So shooting an ultra dense metal into space is cheaper then funneling money through a shell corporation?
1 _red 2013-01-03
Cheaper?
No one cares how much it cost, because they don't pay for it. You pay for it taxpayer.
0 GitEmSteveDave 2013-01-03
We lose spacecraft all the time. Losing gold in the atmosphere and it being unrecoverable is considered a "cost".
2 Zagtar_the_Defender 2013-01-03
You obviously never went to the Evil Movie Villain School for Secret Societies. Why hand the money to someone when instead you can have a super convoluted plot of shooting gold into space? Do you have no flair for the dramatic? I assume you also don't tell everyone your super secret plans before you do them either? Plebe

Obvi paying off the Aliens to not carpet bomb our asses. Duh.

Not saying your suspicions are unfounded, but it sounds like he was joking to me; one a person would naturally make in reference to a box of something very heavy, but unknown.
1 theRube 2013-01-03
maybe it was slang for something else.
maybe aliens are harvesting gold but that seems unlikely given that if there were aliens going after earth's gold they could be doing a way better job if theyre advanced enough to get to earth
maybe this story never happened.

What do you mean by "the non-piloted one"? Somebody has to fly it. How does that work?
3 Apersonofinterest666 2013-01-03
Unmanned X37b. Can't imagine why they would be flying Gold to Space. The cost per lb. to put anything into space is expensive

Depends on the engine

Maybe there is a reason we never went back to the moon. It's Ft. Knox now.

Canadian smugglers do this with weed in the ocean, let it float around with a GPS and someone comes and picks it up

I think your friend was possibly not being entirely truthful.
0 GitEmSteveDave 2013-01-03
Why is your friend moving a load without a spotter? That is suspicious.
