A big shout out to a reader for catching this one…

Fate loves irony, and nowhere is that more true than with names of famous people tied to famous stories — and even tied to alleged psyops.

It’s like strange names constantly come up in those situations.

I’ll give you a few as examples….

Sam Bankman Fried (FTX/crypto) — famous for running the biggest crypto scam and pyramid scheme in history — “Bankman” literally in his name, and sounds a lot like “Scam Bankman Fraud”.

Sam Altman (ChatGPT/OpenAI) — famous for launching ChatGPT and allegedly stealing it from Elon Musk, often known for “shady” character traits — a shady individual literally named the “Altman”.

Bernie Madoff (Finance) — famous for running the largest non-crypto Pyramid Scheme — literally named “Madoff” as in he “Made Off” with all the money.

Anthony Weiner (Politician) — infamous for penis sex scandals — literally named a word, Weiner, synonymous with penis.

Doug Bowser (Nintendo of America president 2019–2025) — literally named the same as the top villain in Nintendo world, ends up running Nintendo.

Gary Bowser (notorious Nintendo console hacker sued 2020) – real life hacker, sued by Nintendo, literally named the same as the top villain in Nintendo world.

Tito Beveridge (business) — founded Tito’s Vodka — literally named “Beveridge” and runs the largest vodka beverage company.

Thomas Matthew Crooks (would-be Trump assassin) — famous for alleged assassination attempt on President Trump — literally named “Crook”.

James Alefantis (owner of Comet Ping Pong pizzeria) — infamous for ties to Pizzagate scandal — name sounds exactly like French “J’aime les enfants” (“I love children”).

Now go to the biggest story for humanity this week was the launch of the Artemis II, allegedly joyriding around the Moon for a fun little jaunt and then heading home.

Earlier today I published my thoughts on all of that here:

Let’s Talk About The Artemis II Moon Launch

And now credit to a reader who tipped me off that the “Science Reporter” covering the story for PBS was none other than Miles O’Brien.

So what, Noah?

Well, if you don’t immediately catch the reference, the PBS Science Reporter covering the Rocket Launch heading to the Moon, is named exactly the same as this guy from Star Trek: The Next Generation….THIS is Miles O’Brien, Transporter Chief:

Happy Birthday Colm J. Meaney (Irish: Colm Ó Maonaigh) (born 30 May 1953; age 72) is the Irish actor best recognized by Star Trek fans for his portrayal of Chief Miles O’Brien on both Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He also played Albert Macklin in… pic.twitter.com/rnqMR05Rid

He continued the character over on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine:

And he was married to one of the most annoying characters in the entire Star Trek Universe: Keiko O’Brien.

So yeah, as Not A Space Agency errrrrr “NASA” is launching their rockets to the Moon, we get the Transporter Chief, Miles O’Brien covering the story:

A day after liftoff, Artemis II is now well on its way. Four astronauts are on a ten-day voyage around the moon and back, traveling deeper into space than any human has ever before.@IAmAmnaNawaz speaks to @milesobrien about what’s happening now and what comes next. pic.twitter.com/393KgXuprW

You can’t make this stuff up folks!

Or who knows, maybe you can….

Meanwhile, in the clip of Miles O’Brien above, he talks about the toilet breaking aboard the vessel, and that got me to thinking….aren’t they in this Orion Capsule in extremely tight quarters for 10 days?

I could maybe understand the toilet somehow handling a #1, but how exactly are all 4 of them going to do a #2?

You surely can’t just “hold it” for 10 days, can you?

Well, I asked Grok and this is what it claims will happen and how you can poop in the midst of 3 other people in a vacuum in Space:

Mission Overview

The four astronauts on NASA’s Artemis II mission (Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen) are inside the Orion spacecraft capsule for the entire ~10-day mission.

The mission launched on April 1, 2026, from Kennedy Space Center. It is a crewed lunar flyby (no landing or low lunar orbit), with splashdown planned in the Pacific Ocean off San Diego around April 10–11, 2026 (actual elapsed time is slightly under 10 full days, but NASA rounds it to 10 days). The crew never leaves the Orion capsule from launch to recovery—they live, sleep, eat, work, exercise, and handle all bodily functions in that single vehicle the whole time.

Orion’s habitable volume is only about 330 cubic feet (roughly the interior of two minivans or SUVs packed with equipment), so it is extremely cramped for four people over ~10 days. They coordinate tightly on everything, including bathroom use.


The Toilet: Not “Only for Peeing”

Your understanding is close but not quite right—the Artemis II Orion has a full toilet system capable of handling both urine and feces (unlike the Apollo-era missions, which used plastic bags taped to the body for everything). It is called the Universal Waste Management System (UWMS), a compact, vacuum/airflow-based toilet that is a major upgrade for deep-space missions.

It is installed in a dedicated “hygiene bay” built into the floor of the capsule (next to the crew hatch). The bay has:

  • A door (plus optional privacy curtain): Crew members have described it as “the one place… we can actually feel like we’re alone for a moment.” It is the closest thing to privacy they get on the whole mission.

  • Space: Roughly the size of an airplane bathroom (still tight, but functional).

  • Stability: Handrails/handles and foot restraints/tethers so astronauts can stay seated and stable in microgravity.

  • Environment: Bright orange insulation foam on the walls (for thermal/structural reasons), and it is noticeably loud because of the fans—astronauts wear ear protection while using it.

How pooping and peeing actually work (step by step):

  1. The astronaut opens the floor hatch/door, climbs in, and secures themselves with the foot restraints and handholds.

  2. For urine: Each crew member has their own personal funnel (redesigned to work for both men and women). They attach it to a hose. A fan creates airflow that pulls the urine away from the body into the system. Urine is pre-treated and stored briefly, then vented overboard into space once per day (no water recycling on this short mission, unlike the ISS).

  3. For feces: They sit on the toilet seat. Airflow (from the same dual-fan separator system) pulls the solid waste away from the body and into individual fecal collection bags. These bags go into a sealed canister that holds about 20 deposits, with filters to control odor and gas buildup. The canister is swapped out as needed during the mission and stowed for return to Earth (it is not dumped in space).

The system is designed so urination and defecation can happen simultaneously if needed. After use, they clean up with wipes/tissues (personal hygiene kits are provided), seal everything, and close the hatch. Waste is fully contained—no floating debris.

They do not just “hold it.” The toilet is used normally as needed throughout the 10 days. It was specifically built to address astronaut feedback from earlier missions about comfort, hygiene, and dignity.


What About the Brief Toilet Issue Early in the Mission?

Shortly after launch on April 1–2, there was a temporary controller/fan issue with the urine-collection part of the system (it wouldn’t boot properly). The crew and ground teams troubleshot it successfully within about a day and restored full function. Even while the urine fan was down, the fecal-collection side still worked normally, and they had backup collapsible contingency urinal bags (Apollo-style) for urine if needed. The issue did not affect the overall mission.


Bottom Line

The UWMS gives the Artemis II crew a real toilet with actual privacy (door + location in the floor), simultaneous pee/poop capability, and proper containment—huge step up from the old bag-and-tape method. Everything is stored or vented responsibly, and the crew returns with the solid waste. No one is holding it; they just coordinate who uses the hygiene bay when, like roommates in a very small apartment. The system was tested extensively on the ISS and in Orion mockups, and the crew has reported it works well.

RELATED REPORT:

Let’s Talk About The Artemis II Moon Launch

Ok, it’s time to address the NASA Artemis II Moon Mission…

Are we really going back to the Moon for the first time in over 50 years?

Longtime readers of WLT Report will know I am highly skeptical of that claim.

But what about the Artemis II?  Doesn’t this prove the Moon missions are real?  See, we’re going back right now, it’s really happening!

Ehhh, I’m not so sure.

But let’s take a look at what new information we have now that we do have the new Artemis II launch.

We can start with this….a hallmark of NASA launches is with each new launch we get the obligatory new photo of the Earth.

And here’s the newest 2026 version:

BREAKING: Artemis II crew captures new photo of Earth. pic.twitter.com/E0YgYcIhW7

Incredible right?

To see our home planet from Space?

It would be if it were real, sure!

But how do we know this one is real this time when each new one we get always looks so different?

Let me show you what I mean…

Here are 8 images NASA has told us it took of the Earth.

Will the real Earth please stand up?

Not only do those 8 not look like each other, but none of them resemble the new image was just got from Artemis II.

Strange, don’t you think?

And take another look at the 2026 image….you can see the large brown land mass in the bottom left area seems to be Australia, right?

But then look again and look specifically at its size.

Australia looks MASSIVE!

This guy did a great job explaining exactly how Australia could not possibly be that big when viewed from Space:

I’m not a flat earther but The size of Australia in the recent picture of Earth from the Artemis to rocket does not match the Google maps ball which does fit all the continents and is very accurate when it comes to proportion. https://t.co/JNBQkLcUk4 pic.twitter.com/xrnY1UsXpQ

Gotta love how he prefaces his post with “I’m not a Flat-Earther but….”

I think we’re going to start seeing people say that a lot more often going forward.

They don’t want people to think they’re crazy so “I’m not a Flat-Earther” but….I can also see that things are not adding up here.  What they are telling us is true is not what I am seeing.

Backup of that video here on Rumble if needed:

And then we always have this beauty…

If you’ve ever watched a rocket launch, you know it always follows this pattern.

It goes up, then hits a peak, and then seemingly starts going down again.

It looks like this:

…any questions? pic.twitter.com/8jiPn93Swp

I know, I know….it can’t go straight up because it has to kind of go sideways and build up escape velocity kind of like how you can’t swim directly against a rip tide current in the Ocean, you have to kind of swim mostly parallel to it.

I’ve heard it all before, and maybe that’s right.

But I also know my eyes see.

Here’s the Artemis II launch, filmed by a man with a Nikon P1000:

I’m tired of talking about this, but there are still people out there who believe this Artemis II crap, so we need to keep driving the point home:

There is no “space travel”. NASA is a computer-generation and filming studio that occasionally does public spectacles like this to… https://t.co/j4ets4PaQX pic.twitter.com/Jkc1laVnic

Then we have the Astronauts before the launch, and I’m not saying there’s any big smoking gun here but they just seem “off” to me and they seem to be making some really strange comments.

Watch here:

A lot of weird things were said by these astronauts! Wow! pic.twitter.com/8siy33czQd

— Freedom Memes (@FreedomMemesIRL) April 2, 2026

I don’t know, they sure seem a lot more like polished actors than Space Astronauts, but maybe that’s just me.

Speaking of the Astronauts, am I the only person who thinks this looks totally staged and fake?

🚨BOOM: The astronauts are SUITING UP right now for the launch of Artemis II to the Moon from Kennedy Space Center!

This is HISTORIC!

Pray for our astronauts! pic.twitter.com/k9o7J3Nudz

— Gunther Eagleman™ (@GuntherEagleman) April 1, 2026

So they have to through this ridiculous process of suiting up for hours before the leave but what about the return trip home?

What about when they’re in Space and have to change outfits to go pee?

Who suits them back up like this for the return trip?

Here they are allegedly in Space right now just hanging out, not in their gear anymore, so I ask again who suits them up for the return trip home?

NEW: Artemis 2 crew explains the difficulty of sleeping during their mission to the Moon.

Question: “What does sleeping even look like?”

Or how about this….is this Buzz Aldrin admitting flat out that we never went to the Moon?

Watch here:

Buzz Aldrin looks like he always told you we didn’t go to the Moon, didn’t he?

Little girl: “Why has nobody been to the Moon in such a long time?”

Buzz: “Because we didn’t go there.” pic.twitter.com/xbKa1N9sRV

And then there’s the fact that we can never get an uncut, live feed of the entire launch from Earth to Space.

Go search, you won’t find one.

Every single video you will find has multiple cuts in it.

We never get to see the full thing, unedited.

Wonder why that is?

And then we just have the practical questions that don’t add up.

I still find it impossible to believe that we went to the Moon from 1969-1972 and then just stopped going.

For over 50 years, we just never bothered to go back.

That would be like discovering North America and then Europe deciding they didn’t really have any interest in exploring it, colonizing it, and expanding their empires.

Folks, that has NEVER happened ever in the history of humanity that we reached a new place, a new discovery, and then just chose to not go there anymore.

Of course, NASA’s Don Pettit explains that the real problem is NASA “lost” the technology.

No joke, watch here:

NASA “lost the technology” to go back to the moon. What do you all make of this? Do you believe that story?

Look, I’ve lost my car keys, I’ve lost my homework, I even once lost my little sister for a few hours, but you’re telling me that an entire Government Agency with Billions of dollars in budget each year just lost the technology for the most important achievement of mankind?

Really?

What, like you taped over the VHS tapes?

Didn’t run the computer backup?

Misplaced the files in your filing cabinet?

You expect me to believe this?

There’s also the fact that technology never moves backwards.

We somehow figured this out back in 1969 and got it right on the very first try too, but now 55 years later we cannot reproduce it?

You do realize Artemis II is not actually landing on the Moon, right?

Isn’t that a little weird?

They’re just going to go joyride around it and then come home, but not actually land on it.

Why?

Because NASA is literally not capable of doing that right now.

In 55 years, we someone regressed in technology.

Can anyone explain that?

It would be like this….imagine right now you have your iPhone 17, super powerful, we have AI chatbots that can literally answer any question you ask it, our Teslas drive us automatically anywhere we want to go without touching the wheel or pedals, it’s all pretty wild.  But then imagine we jump forward to 2076, 50 years in the future, and you look around and for some reason the best anyone has is that old Nokia brick phone, no AI chatbots, and the cars have all gone back to 1970s era cars.

Would that make any sense?

Of course not!

But that’s what we’re told we have to believe about NASA and Space exploration.

Sorry folks, I just don’t buy it.

And neither does my man Bart Sibrel.

A few years ago, I had him on my show over on The Daily Truth Report and it was an incredible chat where we went deep on all of this stuff.

If you haven’t seen it yet, you’re in for a real treat:

MOON MAN: Bart Sibrel EXPOSES The Moon Landings

A couple days ago I had the pleasure of getting to sit down with someone who I’ve followed for a long time.

One of the first people to speak out and say the Moon Landings don’t add up….

One of the ONLY people in the world to get punched in the face by Buzz Aldrin….

And one of the best filmmakers out there.

I sat down with Mr. Bart Sibrel and we chatted for over an hour.

The time totally flew by, and I had about 20 additional questions for him that we just didn’t have time to get to.

After we had wrapped the interview, Bart commented to me that this interview flew by faster than any others he can remember doing recently, and I felt the same way.

Whether you are a NASA fanboy or a Moon Landing skeptic, I think you’re going to enjoy this one.

There’s a very real “cult of religion” surrounding the Moon Landings and so I know this is going to really ruffle some feathers.

But it must be discussed because the truth will always rise to the top.

In fact, Bart told me on air that he once came across a professor who said “even if I see Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong get on TV and confess to the world that the Moon Landings were fake, I will still believe they were true!”

Hard to imagine anything more “cultish” and “brainwashed” than that statement, but I know we’ll get some of that in the comments below.

Nevertheless, I am talking about this and I had Bart on my show because I believe this is one of the largest conspiracies ever to be covered up.

And you do know that “conspiracy theories” are only “conspiracy” until they are admitted or proven as true, right?

And you do know that MANY have moved from “conspiracy theory” to “proven fact” in the last century, right?

In fact, I recently asked ChatGPT to give me a top 10 list and you might be surprised to see this list of 10 events that were once considered “tin foil hat” conspiracy theories are all now either proven or admitted to be 100% true:

  1. The Tuskegee Syphilis Study (1932-1972): The U.S. Public Health Service conducted an experiment on African American men in Tuskegee, Alabama, allowing syphilis to progress untreated to study its natural history, even after the discovery of penicillin as a cure.
  2. Operation Northwoods (1962): This was a proposed plan by the U.S. Department of Defense to stage false flag acts of terrorism and blame them on Cuba to justify military intervention. The operation was never approved or carried out.
  3. MKUltra (1953-1973): The CIA ran secret mind-control experiments using drugs like LSD, hypnosis, and more on unsuspecting subjects, including U.S. and Canadian citizens.
  4. Operation Paperclip (1945-1959): After WWII, the U.S. government secretly recruited former Nazi scientists, engineers, and technicians, providing them with new identities to benefit from their expertise in various fields.
  5. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident (1964): Originally presented as an unprovoked attack on U.S. naval vessels by North Vietnamese forces, further analysis and declassified information showed that the event was misrepresented, leading to the escalation of the Vietnam War.
  6. COINTELPRO (1956-1971): The FBI’s program aimed to surveil, infiltrate, and discredit civil rights and political organizations and their leaders.
  7. Operation Gladio: Post-WWII, NATO-backed secret armies were allegedly involved in terror and provocation operations to discredit leftist groups and stabilize political situations in Europe.
  8. The Iran-Contra Affair (1980s): Senior U.S. officials secretly facilitated the sale of arms to Iran, which was then under an arms embargo, and used the proceeds to fund Contra rebels in Nicaragua, violating U.S. law.
  9. The poisoning of alcohol during Prohibition (1920-1933): The U.S. government knowingly allowed the poisoning of industrial alcohols, which bootleggers used to produce drinkable spirits. This led to thousands of deaths.
  10. Operation CHAOS (1967-1974): A covert CIA program to monitor and infiltrate anti-Vietnam War and civil rights groups in the U.S., despite prohibitions against domestic spying.

So now let’s talk Moon Landings….

Does that get moved to #1 on the list above at some point in the near future?

I think it might.

When it comes to the Moon Landings, I want to start with something Bart and I discussed….which is the fact that for everyone who thinks the Moon Landings were real, all the doubters used to be you!

We used to be you….

We all grew up hearing about the Moon Landings, looking up at Space and thinking how cool it was that we’d been to the Moon….

A lot of us had the posters on our wall growing up….

We had the Globe in every elementary school classroom growing up and we were taught about the Moon Landings every year in school.

We watched Star Trek and Star Wars and we loved it!

We honored and revered the Astroanuts.

We. Were. You!

But then “A Funny Thing Happened”….

I’ll just speak to my situation, but I think this is how it goes for most people.

I started hearing about how there was this group of people who said it never happened.

“INSANE!” we all thought!

But then eventually you decide, ok so what is going on here?

It’s so strange, how could they think that?

And then you go down the Rabbit Hole into Wonderland and once you start digging in you realize, hang on, some of this actually doesn’t make any sense!

And once you hit that point you often never go back.

It’s the famous quote:

“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance – that principle is contempt prior to investigation.”

The people who remain in contempt — holding all doubters in consternation — never investigate.

And according to that quote, “contempt prior to investigation” is a bar against all information, leaving man in everlasting ignorance.

So if that’s you, I challenge you to simply….investigate!

And when you start investigating, you’re going to come across two different categories of information.

The first category are what I call the micro-details.

This is stuff like the shadows in the images are all wrong, the flag is not blowing right, there is a lack of stars, one rock has a “C” on it so it looks like it was a movie prop, the dirt is the wrong color, etc.

There is a LOT of evidence in that camp, but that was never conclusive to me.

Every piece of evidence has a counterargument and you can get mired in that back-and-forth all day long.

It’s really the second category that seals the deal for me, which is what I call the logical proofs.

And the logical proof is simply this — without any special training, any tests, any evidence of any kind — you just simply need your brain and logic, and in order to believe we landed on the Moon in 1969-72, you have to believe the following:

In order to believe we landed on the moon in 1969 you have to believe this simple claim:

That we went 1,000 times FARTHER than we can currently send astronauts today…

50 years ago

On the first attempt

With one-millionth the computing power of today’s cell phone!

And then the kicker…..then we just never went back!

Each one of those elements has never happened before in human history, let alone all of them at the same time.

Let’s break those down…

Currently, even by NASA’s own admissions, we cannot send human beings any farther than Low Earth Orbit (where the Space Station is) — yet, in 1969 we went to the Moon which is 1,000 times farther.  Really?

That was 50 years ago, and so we could do it back then but can’t do it now.

So technology went backwards?

That would be like having the Internet in 2023 and then in 2073 the Internet is gone and we’re back to computers with no online connection and we’re back to using floppy disks.

Technology has never gone backwards like that, ever.

For all the visual learners, this:

Watch this stunning clip here:

Then you have to believe we did it perfectly on the first try!

Amazing!

Oh and we vertically landed the rocket on the Moon, meanwhile, it took Elon Musk 5 tries to vertically land a rocket in 2023.  They all kept blowing up!

But we did it perfect, on the first try, thousands of miles away from Earth.

With…..less computing power than we all currently walk around with on our cell phones.

Think of that.

NASA had ONE-MILLIONTH the computing power of our current cell phones.

I can’t even get the WiFi to work in my house half the time, meanwhile, with 1/1,000,0000th the computing power, we remotely landed a rocket on the Moon?  And then packed it up and flew it back home again?  Really?
