# Thunderbolts Forum Deletions — Evidence Archive

**Status:** Open  
**Triggered by:** Content strategy; [Controlled Opposition](/timeline/evt-controlled-opposition-managed-disclosure) (15.02.00) cites deleted forum threads as evidence of gatekeeping.

## Claim

The Thunderbolts Project (Electric Universe / Saturnian cosmology) has deleted or moderated forum threads when critics approached "the boundary" (e.g., Fomenko, Biblical chronology, full Polar Configuration). Documenting preserved evidence supports the controlled-opposition thesis.

## Methodology

- Collect any archived copies of removed threads (e.g., saturniancosmology.org/files/blog/removed_thread.txt cited in 15.02.00).
- Document dates, topics, and summary of removed content where possible.
- List other reported deletions or bans related to boundary topics.
- Keep this investigation factual; avoid speculation beyond what archives show.

## Findings

(To be populated. Reference: "grey cloud" thread August 7, 2010, removed_thread.txt.)
