What Causes Lyme Disease

Since ancient times, full moons have been associated with odd or incomprehensible occurrences that can only be explained by the supernatural. These events have prompted countless experiments and endless research, but maybe such problem’s answers are simply out of this world. It has been reported that many people and animals that have contracted Lyme disease feel discomfort and the worsening of their symptoms during full moons. An answer as to why this occurs is beyond scientific understanding, but what if the answer is as simple as society 's location, or more so planet? If a moon base were to be created, then the bacteria that causes Lyme disease, Borrelia Burgdorferi, could be further researched, the base would help society learn how the bacteria

The bacteria stated prior, Borrelia Burgdorferi, is the cause of the disease and the stem of the problem. The bacteria cannot survive alone for longer than a few hours so it finds a “host” to survive inside of (MD). The most common hosts are ticks, mice, and other small mammals (MD). The bacteria has a reproduction cycle of 28-30 days, almost identical to the moon cycle (TOL). The bacteria has been known to align itself with the moon cycle, causing its victims to have noticeably worsening symptoms during full moons cycle. Mammals that are infected by Lyme disease include dogs, horses, humans, cattle, and cats (CFSPH). The science behind this mysterious correlation has yet to be proven but many theories have been made supporting the ideas of electromagnetism and gravitational pull (TOL). To find the reasoning behind this all but coincidental occurrence between the two cycles, these theories must be tested on the moon. With the comparison of the disease on the earth and on the moon, society could learn more about how the bacteria is affected on the moon which would revolutionize society’s outlook on this very delicate

These symptoms include a “high fever, swollen lymph nodes, lethargy, loss of appetite, and swelling of the joints”. The study itself will take four months without space travel time. The reason being four months is to ensure that accurate data will be taken and an adequate amount of time is supplied for data and research. Multiple dogs will need to be taken to the moon to compare the symptoms of different sized dogs and how that affects the study. Lyme disease is most popularly contracted during summer months, ranging during late May through early September (CFSPH). This would be the ideal time to conduct the study because symptoms will be most intense and significant during the early months of the disease. Although many other elements of the study will need to be taken into account, these suggestions are vital to the accuracy and likelihood of a successful
