     This picture is undoubtedly one of ufology's most interesting and genuine UFO photo cases. It was taken by professional photographers from the Martin Aircraft Company (which later merged with the American-Marietta Corporation and the Lockheed Corporation to eventually become what is now Lockheed Martin) for a promotional shot of their Martin B-57 Canberra bomber. The bomber was flying near Edwards Air Force Base in southern California sometime in 1954. This photo was leaked to the UFO organization NICAP. . . .

Star Wars-style planets with TWO SUNS are more capable of housing alien life than those which orbit a single star

• Astronomy student Joni Clark created simulations of a variety of so-called binary systems - solar systems with two suns - to see how far habitable zones within them could spread
• This is because the two suns orbit each other and create a safe zone which reduces the threat to those planets from solar winds
  
• This gives those planets within such binary systems more potential to be habitable than those in single sun set-ups

Planets in solar systems that have two suns - similar to the fictional Tatooine planet from the film Star Wars - have more potential for supporting alien life than planets with single suns, according to an astronomy student.

Joni Clark from New Mexico State University simulated various types of systems including binary - systems with two suns - to test whether the planets within these systems were more or less capable of being habitable.

She discovered that in binary systems, the gravitational pull of the two suns orbiting around each other reduces the threat to those planets from solar winds, for example, increasing the chance of life surviving and water sources forming.

An artist's impression of Kepler-35 b - a planet that orbits around a pair of sun-size stars. The discovery of Kepler-35b and another twin sun planet, Kepler-34 b, was announced in January 2012. Planets in solar systems that have two suns - similar to the fictional Tatooine planet from the movie Star Wars - have more potential for supporting life than planets with single suns, claims an astronomy student

WHAT IS A BINARY SYSTEM?

A binary system is a system of two objects in space - traditionally stars - which are so close that their respective gravitational pulls causes them to orbit around each other.

They do this because they orbit around a central mass that keeps them in a fixed position.

Binary suns and star systems are featured heavily in the Star Wars in the system in which the planet Tatooine is located.

In the Discovery program Alien Planet, the planet Darwin IV orbits a binary system.

In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the planet Magrathea orbits a binary system.

In Escape To Witch Mountain and Return From Witch Mountain, Tony and Tia's home planet orbits two suns.

In Star Trek Voyager, there is a system with two suns and in Doctor Who, Gallifrey -the home planet of the Time Lords- has two suns in its planetary system.

Clark told Space.com: '[The stars] calm each other down.

'It's like a really good marriage. They vent to each other, and they're not focused on anything else.

'They slow each other down and that causes increased magnetic protection of the planets.'

 

After modeling a variety of systems, Clark, along with astrophysicist Paul Mason from the University of Texas concluded that stars 80 per cent as big as the sun, if close enough together, could increase the chances of being able to sustain life.

An example of an existing planet in a binary system is the Kepler-35 b - a planet that orbits around a pair of sun-size stars.

The discovery of Kepler-35b and another twin sun planet, Kepler-34 b, was announced in January 2012.

Another binary system is the Kepler-47 system.

It is a star system with at least two planets in orbit around the pair of stars located 5,000 light-years away from Earth.

When the suns in a binary system occupy a similar mass they orbit each other in a way that reduces the amount of solar wind they create.

Solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of a sun.

It is mostly made up of electrons and protons and this stream of particles can vary in temperature and speed.

The particles escape a sun's gravitational pull because of their high kinetic energy and the high temperature of the plasma around the sun - called the corona.

This diagram shows the Kepler-47 system. Kepler-47 is a binary star system with at least two planets in orbit around the pair of stars located about 5,000 light-years away from Earth. This image shows a habitable zone in which planets that may support life could reside. Clark's study found that the habitable zone in binary systems is 40 per cent larger than in single-star systems

If the suns are similarly matched their speed and temperature is more regulated. This reduces how many particles escape which in turn leads to less solar wind.

Clark's stars also need to fully orbit one another within 10 to 30 days to extend the wider habitable zone - dubbed the 'Goldilocks Zone'.

The planets within these binary systems would still die out at a similar rate to those within single-starred systems, yet the 'habitable zone' increases by around 40 per cent.

However, Clark claims that if they drift too far apart, this puts a significant gravitational strain on the orbiting planets within that system.

Clark's findings were reported in Astrobiology Magazine, a web-based publication sponsored by the NASA astrobiology program.

She also found that some 'p-type' planets - planets that orbit both stars within the same binary system were hit with 0.7 percent less flux from solar winds than Earth is currently exposed to in our single-star system.

Although this level of flu depends on the planets' position within their binary solar system.

Planets that only orbit one of the suns in a binary system are more at risk, and in cases where the two suns are too far apart or greatly differ in mass to create a synchronised movement, the planet orbiting the second sun can be hit with double the amount of solar flux it gets hit with.  

This is because these planets are more prone to be tidally locked in one position, usually with one side permanently turned toward its sun.This side then receives the full brunt of any solar flux.

In binary systems, like the artist's impression pictured, its more likely that rocky planets with water sources can form because they're not at as much risk from solar assaults, compared to planets in systems with single stars. This means such planets could house alien life

Planets that orbit the first sun in a binary system, though, behave in the same way planets do in a single star system.

In binary systems its more likely that rocky planets with water sources can form because they're not as much risk from solar assaults, compared to planets in systems with single stars.

Living conditions on these planets would vary because of cloud cover.

Planets with high cloud cover would be insulated and protected from ultraviolet radiation.

'It also leaves the potential open for smaller planets that have less magnetic field protection to remain habitable because in a sense they don't have to protect themselves from as much as they would in a single star case,' continued Clark.

Uri Geller psychic spy? The spoon-bender's secret life as a Mossad and CIA agent revealed

We may know him for spoon bending antics and for his lengthy friendship with pop star Michael Jackson but showbiz psychic Uri Geller has seemingly had a lengthy second career as a secret agent for Mossad and the CIA, albeit one that was more Austin Powers than James Bond.

Geller was at the Sheffield Doc Fest this week for the premiere of Vikram Jayanti’s The Secret Life Of Uri Geller – Psychic Spy?, a new film that offers compelling evidence of his involvement in the shadowy world of espionage. 

“Uri has a controversial reputation. A lot of people think he is a fraud, a lot of people think he is a trickster and makes things up but at the same time he has a huge following and a history of doing things that nobody can explain,” Jayanti says of his Zelig-like subject.

Speaking to The Independent, Geller acknowledged alarm when he first saw Jayanti’s documentary.

“I was worried and I am still concerned,” Geller said of the way the documentary outs him as a spy. “I didn’t realise that Vikram was going to do such a thorough job of tying all the loose ends…making that the little hints I dropped throughout my career were real.”

When he signed up for the doc, the psychic didn’t realise quite how diligently Jayanti would track down his old spy masters. Nonetheless, he is happy that the doc is showing “a serious side” to him. “Some countries think I am a freak, bizarre, an eccentric,” he sighs. 

On camera and in interview, Geller still remains coy about his espionage activities. Nonetheless, the psychic acknowledges that his handlers once asked him to use telepathy to stop a pig’s heart. He refused, knowing that if he had succeeded, the next target would almost certainly have been a human.

“I tried to execute missions that were positive,” Geller claims. “I said ‘no’ to dark things.”

Jayanti didn’t rely on Geller’s own cryptic testimony. Instead, he spoke to the high-level officials involved in recruiting and using him. These include scientists from The Stanford Research Institute as well as senior CIA operatives. Among the interviewees with first hand knowledge of Geller’s psychic spying activities are former CIA officer Kit Green, Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell (the sixth man to walk on the moon), physicists Russell Targ and Hal Puthoff, and retired US army colonel John Alexander (of The Men Who Stared At Goats fame). A Brit, Nick Pope, once the British Government’s UFO boffin, also puts in an appearance. We also learn about Geller's stint as a psychic bodyguard for Mexican President Jose Lopez Portillo.

The doc leaves a question mark in its title but provides so much background evidence that we are left in little doubt that even its most outlandish assertions are rooted in truth. Whether or not Geller had psychic powers, US security forces were certainly prepared to take a very hefty wager on him.

It is inferred that Geller attempted to use his psychic powers to disable radar during the “raid on Entebbe,” when Israeli commandos stormed a hijacked plane.

The spoon bender also used his mind powers to try erase the contents of floppy discs being carried back to Russia by Soviet diplomats in Mexico and to convince a Russian minister to sign a nuclear arms reduction treaty. (Geller is pictured alongside the minister flanked by a youthful and grinning US Vice-President Al Gore.)

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears in the doc, testifying to his many years of friendship with Geller.

Jayanti’s thesis is that Geller was recruited as the US security forces were caught up in “psychic arms race” with their Soviet rivals, who were almost certainly bluffing about the strength of their own psychic warriors.

“When Jimmy Carter was elected President, one of the first things he did was to have Uri Geller give him a four hour briefing on the Soviet psychic threat. America didn’t want a psychic gap and Uri was the go-to guy about these things,” Jayanti said. “Sometimes, you wonder whether Uri’s entire public career has actually been a front for his shadow world activities.”

After 9/11, Geller was apparently “re-activated” as a psychic spy.

The key formative event in Geller’s youth appears to have been his near-death experience while fighting for the Israeli army during the Six Day War. He came face to face with a Jordanian soldier and shot him to save his own life.

“Out of the entire war, that one incident, that split second of killing another human being, left me scarred and I definitely have recurring nightmares about that. I learned to live with it,” Geller tells me. “When I woke up in hospital in Jerusalem, I realised what I had committed…that soldier is embedded in my soul now. He is like my brother. That is the way I feel. Although these recurring nightmares are such that he comes and grabs me and says what did you do to me, I still feel his soul is in my soul.”

Although Geller is coy about how he helped the Mossad, he had one revealing anecdote about Israeli military leader Moshe Dayan in a restaurant.

“He (Dayan) was an avid collector of archaeological items, very ancient ones, four, five six thousand years old. They’re all around Israel. When he met me and saw my powers, the first question he asked me, after the serious questions of military use and all that…was ‘Uri, do you think you can find for me some archaeological artefacts with your powers.’ I said, ‘You know, Moshe, I’ve never done it but let’s try!’”

This led to various late night trips when Geller would take Dayan with him as he went dousing for ancient relics. “I found quite a few things for him. He loved it. He used to collect them in his garden.”

Spying for the CIA is one thing, football another. In Sheffield, Geller belatedly offered his apologies to the Scottish people for using his psychic powers from a helicopter above Wembley to try to make the ball move before Gary McAllister took his fateful, missed penalty against England during the Euro 1996 tournament. He acknowledged that was one occasion when he had most definitely crossed ethical lines.

“I then realised after I got hate letters, hundreds and hundreds from Scotland, that it was absolutely and utterly unethical,” Geller confessed. “Guess what, I bought a Scottish island. I made up with Scotland. I am an owner of a Scottish island. That, to me, means I am partially Scottish.”

(The Secret Life Of Uri Geller – Psychic Spy? Was a premiere at the Sheffield Doc/Fest and will be broadcast by the BBC later in the year.)

“I feel the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. In special reports, this week’s files cover: UFO Beams and Lights in the Bible, UFO Hits Airliner over China, Evict Tornadoes and Hurricanes, Mexico UFO Flies into Popocatepetl Volcano, Antarctic Cave Entrance, Mars Rover Finds Water, and Vital Work

The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research.

Special Reports

UFO Beams of Light in the Bible

“For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.” Isaiah 66:15 was written about 100 BC. There are many descriptions in the Bible of clouds carrying people, lights from heaven, and the glory of the Lord, power, and chariots of fire and whirlwinds that describe aerial vehicles that could be the UFOs we see today.

I interviewed a lady in Pensacola Beach who told me they shot they shot a blue beam at me, it knocked me out a little but not completely, then it shut off then a second beam came on and it lifted me up to the UFO and it was a humming blue beam. I was unconscious most of the time aboard the craft and saw others being examined. She parachuted as a hobby and when they returned her, she had a similar feeling to jumping out of an aircraft. Near the ground she had a similar feeling to an opening shock of the parachute. She awoke later thinking it might have been a dream, but she was in the wrong bedroom with her pajamas on backwards.

In this painting, the Angel of the Lord announces the birth of Samson to Manoah's wife. The Angel states, “Why do you ask my name it is beyond understanding and then. “As the flame blazed up from the altar toward heaven, the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame.” Judges 13 -20

I have interviewed several people have described a white or humming blue beam coming from the craft. One helicopter pilot who flew out of Fort Stewart Army Base in Georgia told me he was directed to intercept a UFO. When he approached it was hovering a 100 feet above a home and a blue beam was shining down lighting up the area. When he got near the UFO it flew away and he was told to not reveal his story.

http://bible.cc/acts/26-12.htm Paul states, “A t midday, O sir, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining all around me and those who were journeying with me. “And I said, ‘Who are you?’ And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting.” Now stand up for I have appeared to you to appoint you as my servant and my witness.” Acts 26 -13-16.

God has the ability to make light or carry someone to Heaven, but He may choose to use technology. Someone describing light or flight several thousand years ago has few words in his vocabulary to describe what is happening. It’s even difficult today to describe a light that shines down from the sky that can lift a person or freeze his body or blind his eyes.

How does the pillar of a cloud or the beam of light, lift things up using the laws of science? In Sci-Fi television such as Star Trek the actor would say, “Beam me up Scotty.” My hypothesis is the beam of light or a pillar of the cloud that lifts may use circular particle accelerator. Ezekiel in the Bible describes a wheel in a wheel that may be a clue of how it works.

The beam of light could be a beam of molecular ions, molecules with one electron removed, that travel from the vessel to the ground. Science is just now starting to understand the technology described in the Bible and by abductees of how beams of light could lift a person or heavier objects into a hovering craft.

The Engineer Digital June 11, 2013 Edition reports, “New research could help cut the size of powerful particle accelerators from kilometers to meters in length, paving the way for their wider use in science, energy and medicine. An international group of scientists is hoping that a powerful new type of accelerator, in which particles ‘surf’ in the wake of pulses of energy created by optical fiber lasers, could be small enough to fit within a typical lab – and they are drawing up plans of how to build one. Such small accelerators could be used to conduct high-level scientific research with cheaper facilities than is currently possible.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) used to find the particle that appears to be the Higgs boson, for example, sits in a 27km-long circular tunnel. “The problem with accelerators at the moment is that to accelerate electrons you need a big electric field,” explained Dr Bill Brocklesby, a researcher at the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) at Southampton University.

RF accelerators based on radio frequency electric fields are limited to how big those fields can be before you get breakdown (sparks). That means if you can only have a certain amount of electric field then to get the electrons to higher energies you need to make then go further, and that’s why the LHC is 27km long.’ The accelerator proposed by ICAN would use a different principle known as laser Wakefield acceleration whereby a laser pulse is fired into a small tube of gas or plasma to create a wake of electric potential that can accelerate particles to very high speeds over very short distances.

UFOs propulsion systems have strong electrical fields that can power a small city. They have been used to turn off automobile engines and lift automobiles.

The blue beam photo is courtesy of Ed Walters. He told me the beam was sucking up stones, leaves, and debris and just missed his wife. Ed Walters’s leg was caught in the beam and he claimed it felt frozen, like it was nailed to the floor. With the help of his wife Frances shown here he was able to slowly pull his leg out from under the beam. Gravity may be overcome inside the beam that seems solid. This beam or tube of high speed molecules has an inner beam ring just inside the outer beam circle.

These two beams are like a slightly smaller tube inside a larger tube. The outer beam circle or tube is like "glass" and the inner beam circle or tube is the fan. The inner beam of molecules does not blow on the individual, but flows down the inside of the outer beam, bounces of the ground, develops air pressure and sucks the individual up into the UFO. 

The Persian king Darius the Great in 500 BC apparently saw a UFO and had this representation of the god Ahuramazda carved in stone claiming the god had made him King.

UFO Hits Airliner over China

Chengdu -- UFO hits airliner in mid air over, China in June, 2013, as reported by UFO Sightings Daily. The website is authored by Scott C. Waring who was with the United States Air Force and is now in Taiwan.

 “According to the Aviation Herald, the aircraft (registration B-2856) was performing flight CA-4307 from Chengdu to Guangzhou on 4th June 2013, when a large bang was heard from the nose section of the aircraft and the aircraft performance worsened".

 “The Boeing 757 was returned to Chengdu for safety reasons and post flight examinations confirmed that the aircraft collided with a foreign object.”

 “A bird strike has been ruled out (due to lack of blood, feathers or other remains) and theories about the object have ranged from a chunk of ice to UFOs.” Thanks to http://www.ufosightingsdaily.com/

Evict Tornadoes and Hurricanes

The Weather Space.com Facebook reports there were 20 tornado signatures near the North Carolina coast last week! All those dents in the green color are waterspouts offshore, moving toward the NC Coast. I have never really seen a large number of waterspouts like this before.
The East and Midwest have been hit by a high number of tornadoes over the last week. TWS Tornado Watch 31 and recent tornado predictions can be seen here - http://www.theweatherspace.com/2013/06/06/tws-tornado-watch-31/ 20 tornado signatures

President Obama ordered the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) find methods to control or decrease the strength of hurricanes and improve forecasts as they pose a threat to national security. Accurate forecasts will help DHS gauge its response to impending storms. Hurricanes and tornados are both dependent on super cell cloud formation although hurricanes and waterspouts develop over the ocean and tornadoes develop over the land.

The first year 2010, Hurricane Aerosol and Microphysics Program (HAMP) was highly productive scientifically. Aerosol and cloud measurements, statistical analyses, and numerical modeling using advanced microphysical schemes supported the hypothesis that tropical cyclones (TC) (hurricanes) are sensitive to aerosols that can act to decrease storm intensity. Aerosols such as pollen, spores, and bacteria including anthropogenic ones like products of combustion such as: smoke, ashes or dusts substantially affect cloud microphysics creating bigger super cell thunderstorms that create the tornadoes.

HAMP states, “The major impact of this research on hurricane intensity prediction is that it highlights the importance of low-level cold-pools, particularly in the outer rainbands on hurricane intensity. It means that methods for diagnosing cold-pool strength and area in real time need to be developed for hurricane intensity prediction. In addition, operational forecast models need to be implemented that can explicitly represent the variability of hurricane cold-pools due to variations in wind-shear, environmental moisture, and aerosols. It was found also that the effect of aerosols on tropical cyclone intensity is as important as interactions with the ocean. “

Hurricane Sandy October 26, 2012 - CNN

The HAMP hypotheses:

Aerosols affect clouds within tropical cyclones leading to redistribution of latent heat release within hurricanes and affect cyclone intensity

There is a possibility to decrease the intensity of hurricanes by seeding cloud bases of hurricanes at their periphery with submicron aerosols.

Cloud Water Content in clouds developing in dirty air is higher and super cooled water reaches higher levels as at right.

http://weathermodification.org/Park%20City%20Presentations/DC%20Program%20Review.pdf

Study Conclusion: Small aerosols change dramatically the cloud microphysics and dynamics, transforming deep maritime clouds into thunderstorms.

The HAMP Hypothesis and Objectives emphasizes aerosols because they have been implicated in the rate of energy transfer within hurricanes. The main sources of energy of these hurricanes or tropical cyclones (TC) are latent heat released in clouds and sensible heat transferred from the warm ocean. Statistically significant weakening of the peak wind intensities compared to the prediction (dVmax) was found independently for both desert dust and organic carbon, while an invigorating effect was found for black carbon.

It seems reasonable that the HAMP hypotheses are probably relevant to tornadoes.

A paper co-written by several participants in the HAMP project including Joe Golden entitled, “ Aerosol Effects and Microstructure on the Intensity of Tropical Cyclones,” was released in the July 2012 Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. In conclusion, the authors wrote, “We recommend that hurricane reconnaissance and research airplanes are equipped with aerosol and cloud physics instruments and fly patterns that will allow such measurements.” Drone use in “areas where safety concerns preclude aircraft measurements” was also called for.

This satellite image shows Hurricane Sandy and possible cloud seeding several hundred miles off the coast of North Carolina. Some people claim this seeding called Sandy to turn inland into New Jersey. Although the winds diminished to 85MPH a storm ocean surge caused most of the damage.

The intensity of a hurricane critically depends on the rate of latent heat release as well as on its spatial distribution within the storm. The latent heat release results from complicated microphysical processes in clouds. It is known that cloud composition, which in turn determines and precipitation forming processes and the resultant heating depend on atmospheric aerosols (pollution, dust, and salt).

Chemtrails are apparently spread under a geoengineering in an attempt to halt global warming. The practice has been openly called for more and more recently, although the chemtrail phenomenon has already been reported across the globe for years now. In the Environmental Research Letters journal, scientists’ most recent geoengineering proposal detailed an “affordable” $5 billion project wherein airplanes will spray sulfur particles in the atmosphere to cool the planet.

J. Golden, W. Woodley, W. Cotton, D. Rosenfeld, A. Khain, and I. Ginis

“…this means that seeding the full depth of the marine boundary layer with 0.1 mm hygroscopic particles at concentrations of several thousand particles cm-3 can be done by dispersing hygroscopic smoke from 5 to 10 cargo airplanes flying in the boundary layer just outside the typhoon spiral cloud bands so that the particles would be drawn into the storm by the low level convergence after having sufficient time to mix well in the boundary layer.” 

These aerosols affect the cloud composition by determining the concentration and size of water droplets and ice crystals in the cloud. Recent observational and numerical studies (using advanced microphysics schemes) indicate that higher concentrations of atmospheric aerosols dramatically intensify updraft velocities and latent heat release aloft in deep maritime convective clouds. This is coupled by greater evaporative cooling at the low levels. This redistribution of heat tends to decrease the intensity of the storm.

Mexico UFO Flies into Popocatepetl Volcano

A clip of a UFO over a Mexican volcano is raising many questions this Monday morning, and the first isn’t even “is that really a UFO?” Instead, it’s “Did that UFO just sacrifice itself into that volcano?”

The video of an apparent UFO apparently flying right into Mexico’s Popocatepetl volcano was taken on May 30, 2013, and is just the latest in a series of UFO sightings around the active volcano since late 2012. In the clip, the UFO seems to approach the volcano, slow down, and then deliberately enter the lave-filled crater.

So far, experts say that the video wasn’t faked, but they’re not entirely sure what to make of it.

The video could show an aircraft descending and just appear to enter the volcano. You can check out the video of the UFO flying over the Mexican volcano for yourself below, and let us know what you think. Is this an alien craft sacrificing itself to appease the the Mayan gods?

Antarctic Cave Entrance

 Very interesting and intriguing images from Google Earth, which seem to show two very similar entrances to an alien base and a huge saucer shaped object buried in the ice. If there are Alien bases in the Antarctic it would follow that there are ET craft their also.

And why have Google Earth censored the location? Images submitted by Ryan Bolton.

Aging Mars Rover Finds Water

Scientists on Friday claimed NASA's Opportunity has discovered early water on Mars. The solar-powered vehicle has just analyzed what may be its oldest rock ever, known as Esperance 6. It contains evidence that life-supporting water once flowed in abundance, leaving clay minerals behind.

"This is powerful evidence that water interacted with this rock and changed its chemistry, changed its mineralogy in a dramatic way," said principal investigator Steve Squyres of Cornell University. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5g_UBR6iWFJ045e3owAKD03KVZnHA?docId=CNG.5f0054d4dca2ab7bcf370fa8bb5fb053.2f1

Note: It is interesting scientist are announcing what researchers have been claiming for years.

California Orb

Los Angeles – This photo of two orbs was taken on the night of December 31, 2011. I took a second picture in the afternoon of January 1^st, 2012 in Hollywood of two similar white orbs in daytime. I got hurt in the beginning of April when an attacker caved in part of my forehead and broke my nose pretty good. The next morning I was completely healed! This is where chariots of fire come in.

I have a long story that’s about an hour or two long if uninterrupted with questions. If you get interested it’s on YouTube. I’m going on the road as have left my apartment and all my possessions behind. Thanks to William Dee Young-

 HUNTINGTON Beach – I was walking from my garage back into the house on May 25, 2013, when I felt the need to look up to see a star like orb. It looked just like a star but at mid day but it was too bright, stationary and very high up. The wind was blowing clouds by so I knew it was not a balloon. I was calling for my wife to witness as I ran to get video camera. While filming it was hard to see through flip out lenses so it appears to move as I try to focus. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Orb

KISSIMMEE -- We were at EPCOT center waiting for the fireworks, as I looked to the distant sky and saw an aircraft with the normal contrail following it. Soon the contrail stopped and the object continued moving our way. Three lights were released from the bright light. I snapped a couple of pictures and it appears that another set of triangular lights were released. I tried to get another picture but the object disappeared as if someone turned off the light. I don’t believe Disney had anything to do with it. While asleep. I remember being able to leave my body and float and be turned over and over. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Idaho Lights

TWIN FALLS -- This is a real 100% UFO they are here blinking over the city with red and orange lights. I took numerous night photos for proof!

There were two witnesses. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Illinois Disc

 Chicago -- I am writing this for a friend, as he is leery of revealing his name. On June 10, 2013, in the Logan Square neighborhood during broad daylight and blue skies at very busy time of day. The UFO was extremely close for it being over the city.

It was an unmistakable slow moving rotating saucer. We were in utter shock and awe, looking around to see if anyone else saw it. We do not think anyone else saw it as it took off in a blink. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Indiana Cylinder

 Evansville -- I was home alone with my twins and I decided to set up my camera to take some pictures of star trails on June 8, 2013. I went out back and set up camera for 400 five second photos.

When I was scrolling through them I noticed this picture.  I live next to an airport, but I know what airplanes look like in my photos. The picture before and after has nothing. It has two green orbs in the sky. From the picture it looks as if one is completely stationary because there is no trail on in since it’s a five second video. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Maine Light

Bangor -- I walked out front to take pictures of the stars on June 4, 2013. When I looked up I saw a bright, white light that was moving and was larger and lower than the stars. I ran inside and asked my partner to come and look. We watched the single, bright oval object move steadily across the sky with a slight wobble about 500+feet in altitude. We viewed the object for about a minute until we lost sight of it behind the trees. I did manage to capture it on video. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Mississippi Orb

 I take pictures of the weather and clouds all the time. On June 6, 2013, I took this picture and hadn’t noticed either object. When I went to reduce this picture, I noticed the plane and the white object. There was a golf tournament in nearby Memphis and I observed an obvious blimp the day this happened. This object does not have the 'under carriage' you see on a blimp but the small object is obviously there. Other pictures taken seconds later do not show the object what I feel is a UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Missouri Orb

ST. CHARLES COUNTY -- A YouTube video taken during Friday night's storms May 31, 2013 gives viewers a look at the powerful wind that caused so much damage across St. Charles County.

The man behind the camera, Tim H., said in the notes "I was acting silly, driving home from work, I didn't think it was really going to be a tornado, but I turned the corner and there it was. I had a kind of gallows laugh and humor; I am an example of what not to do. Please heed warnings, go to your basement. My Prayers go out to all that have suffered in all the recent tornados." http://stcharles.patch.com/groups/editors-picks/p/video-gives-a-frightening-view-of-friday-nights-tornado-in-st-charles-county?ncid=newsltuspatc00000001&evar4=picks-3-media

ST. LOUIS -- The sighting started when a friend come over to my house and saw a floating disk of light as he pulled up on June 3, 2013. This occurred around 11 PM so he could not see the outline. He comes inside to tell us to come look and when we get back it has vanished. We also noticed a red, blue and yellow/white light floating in the sky. We observed it moving all around the sky at various speeds.

It would light up white for two minutes then return to the blinking lights. We watched for an hour and a half and headed inside. The picture included was taken when the UFO lit up. There is a shadow below the light indicating a saucer shape. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

New York Light

Queens -- I was walking back with my little brother from the gym on June 4, 201, when I noticed a white bright light flying over the airplane traffic. I could tell the difference from this object and the airplanes and helicopters. This had no air craft lights. I was able to take three pictures. The craft disappeared into the horizon. Someone else had to see it.

 Even the airplanes in the area may have caught it on radar. When you zoom in on the pictures you can notice something strange. I thought it was a plane as it flew in a straight going past near LaGuardia Airport. I was mesmerized how it was just cruising past the planes. It was bright and beautiful. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Flushing, Queens – I’d gone with my family about 5:40 PM, on June 5, 2013, to watch my son’s Spring Concert and noticed the object hovering in the south. I had brought my new camera to record the school production. We noticed it hadn’t moved and just floated there at a very high altitude. I snapped several shots with my Cannon Powers SX500 capable of zooming in quite a long distance. I brought it to other parent’s attention. There were over 30 people outside hat saw the object. Many were confused but had a keen interest and some were skeptic. The object was hovering and giving off some kind of odd glow. This was not something man-made, but rather some kind of organic life form. The object was gone an hour later. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Nevada Disc

LAS VEGAS -- We were vacationing last spring break on March 13, 2013, and I was taking pictures with my cell phone. I don’t remember and ceiling lights that could have created the image. Any ways I did not notice the object or reflection until I got home a few days later. The image shows a somewhat transparent saucer shape.

I emailed mUFOn and he did a preliminary assessment and he noticed a dark object at the top left of the photo that I did not see until he pointed it out. I simply cannot explain what is on my photo and am seeking help explaining the out of place object. This is not a fake.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pennsylvania Orb

Don Horvath writes, “I had an experience ten years ago with an orange-yellow orb about the size of a golf ball in my backyard. It was just hovering in the air, seeming to try to keep out of sight. I approached it and it moved swiftly away from me, keeping its distance. I then approached it again, zigzagging this way and that and it kept pace with me as if it were attached to me somehow. Just then, what seemed to be an "invisible critter" of some kind seemed to dart out from a heavy yew bush but it was invisible, even though it left a shadow in the full moonlight. No sooner had this occurred than a very stealthy black hawk helicopter made a pass over my head. I say very stealthy because it was no louder than a Volkswagen; if you were not listening for it you wouldn't have heard. It made another pass as I ran outside and it was so low that I could see the pilot, instrument lights and a guy in the open back door. I know it was a Black Hawk because I live near the Willow Grove Naval Air Station and know aircraft.  It stayed circling my neighborhood till dawn.”

I called Bill Hamilton the next day and he asked me what he thought I was watching. I said, "I don't know; just some kind of orange ball". He then asked me if I had any kind of intuitive guess.  I told him, now that you mention it; I got the sense that it wasn't really an object at all but rather a moveable hole in space.  Bill sent me a paper that he and a guy from Motorola were working on. He called these little orbs "Mini Stargates" said that they are able to open up to most any size needed. Act as "probes" to observe things; open up to let a being out...or abduct a humans (this would explain people being taken through walls, etc....or even let a craft in...or become the craft! Sincerely, Don Horvath.

Texas Orb

Floresville -- I was driving home from my Mother’s residence on May 7, 2013.

 One of my neighbors had one land on her property. An orb flew up from the ground and moved quickly up and out of sight.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Wyoming Saucer

 Grand Tetons -- We took this picture in the Grand Tetons on May 26, 2013. This was another feeble attempt, but the cloud looks like a saucer.

We did see bears, many buffalo and elk. Animals are abundant when we were there with our kids last week. Sure miss you and your talks.

Note: The anomaly in the photo is likely a cloud. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Worldwide UFO Reports

Argentina Triangle

Buenos Aires   On May 15, 2013 I observed for a few minutes a triangle of white spheres, so I went to find the camera. At one point it changes shape and circulates bright white in a blue sky. I ran to my balcony to see better and my 21 years old son arrived and also saw a white circle and was amazed. My husband and my daughter took it lightly, but seeing the picture changed their opinion. I asked my niece who studied photography to look at the objects.

 I started seeing flying objects that were not terrestrial. I started taking photos of the phenomenon on 28 October 2012, of objects that are usually triangular flying south. Our animals also perceive the objects and look to heaven. The phenomenon is clearly visible at the base having three point lighting. The witness says, three white spheres go inside the triangle and accompany him in his flight. They may be three luminous points of light.

Note: There is no data sufficient for identification Thanks to Mario Lupo Regional Director of Buenos Aires Province MUFON Argentina

Australia Light and Discs

Gladstone – A bright orange light slows down and flashes slowly and disappears on May 4, 2013. Some friends and I were sitting out the front of their house and seen a bright orange light moving fast and then slows down and flashes slowly and slowly disappears. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Perth -- I was standing outside my back yard at 10.30 pm having a cigarette looking up and to the left of the moon I saw what I thought was a shooting star on May 22, 2013. I looked at it and realized it was travelling from the left of the moon across and below the moon to the right of the moon across the flight path of Perth’s landing planes. I realized it was two disc craft, one tailing the other slightly to the left of the one in the front.  "Wow, they are in a hurry to get somewhere quick." 

They were disc shaped and looked almost transparent but the moon light lit them up.

They travelled at great speed without lights but were much larger than a nearby plane. I am a 53 year old lady and don't make this sort of thing up, it was an awesome sight. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Canada Bright White Light

Surrey, British Columbia -- I was golfing the other day at Morgan Creek Golf Course, on May 30^th, 2012, around 4 PM. I took the picture of the clouds on my iPhone.

I was facing north. I never looked at the picture until this morning. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this. This entry was posted in  permalink.

Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Amos, Quebec -- Shortly before 4:00 AM, on June5, 2013, I got up and looked out from my bedroom window facing west and noticed a bright white light over the NW horizon, too bright to be a planet or a star. It was three times brighter than Venus at its brightest. I kept looking and noticed it was moving slowly without blinking. I got out to have a better look. I realized it didn't look like an airplane and had no blinking lights, just one very bright light. 

I went back inside and got my camera (Lumix DMC-FZ28, with an 18x zoom) and managed to film 40 seconds of it. It was visible for about three minutes before it disappeared below the SE horizon. When I first saw it NW, it was about 25 degrees, at its highest, facing south, about 35 degrees.

I guess it must always have been more than one mile away. The observation occurred about 3:52 AM. It was not a conventional aircraft or Chinese lantern. It looked white eye but the recording reveals colors. Thanks to MUFON CMS

India UFO Spotted in the Sky

Mangalore – Five of us were on the terrace on May 4, 2013, my friend saw it initially and thought it was an aircraft, but later it flew right over our head. It had a ring of fire and a ball of fire on the center. There were sparks flying off it. All five of us witnessed them as it was so clear and passing right over our heads; one after the other in the gap of three to four minutes. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Italy 4 Orange fireball ufos

Macherio -- I witnessed the passing of three orange fireballs travelling north very close to me and quite big on May 25, 2013. When they were disappearing a fourth one passed following the others. They were all very bright and slow in movement with a central bright light and gradation of orange radiation and a soft orange halo. Wow! I guess they are really coming! Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com

Netherlands Castle UFO

Amsterdam ABC National News with Diane Sawyer reports the X files on June 10, 2013 and made a reasonably factual report of a UFO over Muiderslot Castle showing the UFO accidentally photographed above the landmark. On May 25, Corinne Federer and her mother visited the medieval castle, built in 1285 near. Federer, manager in Amsterdam, and an avid photographer, was shooting High Dynamic Range, or HDR, photos of the castle.

In order to create HDR images, you take three or more exposures -- this one happened to be five -- and you shoot them all at the same time, because you then overlap the images and it gives you the full spectrum of light, which your camera can't capture but your eyes can,"

"It was a tubular-shaped object that had an S-shaped fin on it. If it had been any type of missile, it would've had multiple fins, but facing the same direction. We heard nothing, it was completely quiet out.

The object was blurred at 1/250th of a second, so it had to be going superfast.

There is also another disc shaped object to the right of the sun. Thanks to ABC News.

Puerto Rico Disc

Barranquitas -- I saw this on the news today in Puerto Rico that 12 year old girl had taken a clear ufo photo on April 16, 2013.

i don’t think a 12 year old girl would make this photo up. She was going to take a picture of the moon and noticed she caught a disc shaped ufo over some trees Barranquitas. You can look it up in a wooded area and see it in the news. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK England

Derby – I went out for a smoke at 1 am on June 3, 2013; and noticed a star flashing rapidly in the night sky. After watching it for about five minutes I came to realize that it was flashing too violent and to close to be a star. After the first five minutes passed a similar second object came in from the left and stopped within a couple of meters of the first craft. It stayed static for a couple of minutes until it started to fly to the right. After the object moved out of sight the first object started to fly in the same path as the second object. Being as this isn't my first encounter of a UFO I wasn't two shocked about seeing it as I’m a strong believer that we've been visited. Thanks to MUFON CMS

DORCASTER -- It was Tuesday, June 4, 2013, at 2 AM and I couldn’t sleep, and I just happened to see a moving light through the window blinds. I jumped up and opened the blind to see it. There were no flashing lights or noise, which made me think it, might be a meteor, but it had no trail. The object was bright, and brighter than any star. It flew east in a straight line faster than normal. It flew at a steady pace, but too fast for it to be a plane.

It was over the house and out of my view within 10-15 seconds. As soon as it went over the house my first thought was 'have I just seen a UFO’? I’m not sure how many people saw this, or what it was, but I feel it was a UFO.  Thanks to MUFON CMS

Welcome to another issue of the UFO Digest Newsletter. This week we have a wide variety of articles on subjects from UFOs to assassination. I would like to highlight Diane Tessman's contributions to this website. Not only does she write a weekly article but while I was away she helped publish others' article to keep our content fresh. Diane has counseled hundreds of people who feel alien contact or who have had an abduction. She maintains a cat sanctuary on ten acres with 65 formerly abandoned, stray, or feral cats, donations are welcomed. Diane also enjoys the company of 4 dog friends and daily celebrates the magnificence of Mother Nature.

Steve Erdmann reviews Ed Komarek's new book, and then Robert Morrow links Lyndon Johnson to JFK's assassination. Chris Holly writes about White Owls and more. I offer several articles and sightings for your pleasure. Ed Komarek reports on UFOs and whistleblower Snowden. Diane Tessman offers a look at ourselves in 100,000 years. Roger Marsh reports on several UFO sightings. Then Scott Corrales reports Chinese man arrested for hoaxing ET.Next, Doc Vega writes more about Roswell and Jon Kelly reports on UFO data mining. New contributor John Crobons writes about time travel and finally Ron Murdock takes a look at Christian revisionist history. Enjoy Dirk

The Hidden Breakaway Empire by Steve Erdmann. “Our common defense against these predatory ET types is limited but growing”, says Ed Komarek, speaking about his research on extraterrestrials in UFO Exploiters and the New World Disorder, “Air Forces around the world in the 1950s were estimated to be losing an aircraft a day trying to intercept UFOs, and I suspect that this prompted Five Star General MacArthur, who built extensive UFO/ET files in the 1940’s, to state in 1955 that, ‘the next war will be interplanetary war. The nations must someday make a common front against attacks by people from other planets.’ Fortunately, this dire prediction has not yet come to pass.” More...

Lyndon Johnson & The JFK Assassination by Robert Morrow. On the night of New Year's Eve Dec. 31st, 1963, at the Driskill Hotel, Lyndon Johnson and Madeleine Brown, one of his longtime mistresses, had an interesting conversation. Madeleine asked LBJ if he had anything to do with the JFK assassination. Johnson got angry; he began pacing around and waving his arms. Then LBJ told her: it was Dallas, TX, oil executives and "renegade" intelligence agents who were behind the JFK assassination. LBJ later also told his chief of staff Marvin Watson that the CIA was involved in the murder of John Kennedy. More...

White Owls and Other Strange Events by Chris Holly. My experience with the paranormal started when I was a small child. I have partial memories of strange events happening going back to age three or four. I have clear recall of odd encounters from about the age of seven on. I also recall something else that I never connected with my experiences with the unknown until I read about it on the internet by others who shared the same experience. More...

UFO-Extraterrestrial Snowden Moment by Ed Kormarek. If we study carefully the events that lead to the Watergate style leak of NSA snooping recently, we can observe some hopeful signs as to an end to the UFO/ET cover-up. A small community of people has known about the massive surveillance of global citizens by the NSA for a long time, with a steady drip of whistleblowers coming forward on a regular basis. It’s not really that dissimilar to the drip of whistleblower leaks in the UFO community. It is possible that we have laid the groundwork for one courageous whistleblower, or small group of whistleblowers and media, to bring UFO/ET disclosure to the general public as has happened with the leak by Edward Snowden. More...

NY Daily News Article: What Humans Will Look like in 100,000 Years – Look Familiar? by Diane Tessman. I am fascinated by an article which just appeared in the NY Daily News. Why? Because the illustrations of what we humans will look like in 100,000 years, closely resemble illustrations of some UFO occupants. Of all the origins of UFO occupants I have researched, I favor the concept that some of them are humans from our own future. More...

Man Arrested for Hoaxing ET Capture Story by Scott Corrales.A man was arrested in China after hoaxing an account involving the capture of an alleged ET. Li Kai was arrested by the police after having made up the alleged capture of an extraterrestrial near the Yellow River in Binzhou, Shandong Province. More...

Still they try to dispute the Roswell Crash-Part I by Doc Vega. In reassessing the Roswell Incident there are things that we can expect from the military establishment and persistent government denial that probably will forever continue until complete disclosure has finally been sanctioned by the US federal government. Until then, we can definitely anticipate that the deniers and debunkers are firmly entrenched and they will stop at nothing to discredit the alleged crash of an alien space craft 75 miles north of Roswell sometime in the first week of July 1947. More... Also read: Still they try to dispute the Roswell Crash-Part II

UFO Data Mining Pretext To Space Wars by Jon Kelly. New analysis of Edward Snowden’s June 9, 2013, interview with the U.K. Guardian newspaper reveals how the self-described NSA surveillance program whistleblower harbors unconscious concerns about PRISM being used to mine online UFO and ET contact-related data as part of an ongoing attempt by the U.S. government to implement tyrannical space wars initiatives. More...

Unknown Object Shows Up In Photo! by Dirk Vander Ploeg. Publisher's Note: I received a email from Mikanuk on June 6, 2013. He receives our weekly newsletter and wrote the following: With avid enthusiasm, I read your bi-weekly articles. This time, I'm sending you a photo of an UFO I captured with my GE C1233 digital camera. It's a nice shot and I liked how I framed it, as a professional photographer myself. However, I noticed a small speck on the photo. More... And read: Objects Shaped Like Chinese Lanterns Seen In India And UFOs Holding Extraterrestrial Meetings Over Intergalactic Place!

Lightning Fast Triangle UFO Used Advanced Maneuvers! by Roger Marsh. Two witnesses driving east along I-64 in Charleston, WV, reported watching a triangle-shaped object with blue lights at each point that used "advanced maneuvers" at lightning speed before simply vanishing, according to June 7, 2013, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

UFO Research By NASA Affiliated Physicist Dr. Eric W. Davis is Confirmed By Colleague

By James Maynard Gelinas The UFO Chronicles 5-28-13

     Astrophysicist Dr. Eric W. Davis has a curious interest in UFO research. He spoke to the UFO matter while giving an address in 2010 at a Society for Scientific Exploration meeting about a book he had recently co-edited with Dr. Marc Millis, former head of NASA’s Breakthrough Propulsion Physics Project.

Furthermore, while working in an official capacity for NASA in 1999, Dr. Millis attended a venture capital event hosted by known UFO enthusiast and potential investor Joe Firmage, who had openly stated his belief in having met an extraterrestrial visitor. This event led to an official investigation
at NASA over potential loss of intellectual property. That investigation was ultimately dropped.

While speaking at the SSE event (see above) during the question and answer session, Dr. Davis was asked whether UFOs had “. . . guided [the] thinking and research” of such speculative matters as warp drive and traversable wormholes.

Dr. Davis responded, “Secretly yes and overtly no.” He explained that because “. . . UFOs don’t have credibility with mainstream academic researchers,” and because policy-makers and funding agencies “. . . don’t like the topic of UFOs,” some members of the group were forced to “. . . consider it under the table.”

Continuing on with his comments, Davis contrasted what he considered relevant observed UFO phenomena with their work. In comparing data taken from UFO investigators such as Jacques Vallee, George Hathaway, and the questioner, he said “we’ve been able to use that data as input to give us an idea, and that data does drive the concepts that we did derive later on [when we did] the book and [that] went into the original NASA program.”

Dr. Davis gave two examples taken from work done at the National Institute of Discovery Science, a place more colloquially known as question and answer session, where he said investigators and the ranch owner had apparently twice witnessed wormholes open for transport. “. . . we had the experience of one scientist and one investigator seeing a wormhole – what looked like a wormhole – with a creature crawling through, and then the ranch owners had seen an opening in the sky in broad daylight with a triangular craft that came through it.” According to Dr. Davis, this was of relevance to some investigators at NASA’s Breakthrough Propulsion Physics Project, for it was “. . . an example of data that indicates there’s a wormhole involved.”

The details of Dr. Davis’ statement about UFOs, including a full transcript, were previously printed in the story, “Dr. Eric W. Davis, of NASA’s Breakthrough Propulsion Physics Project, Discussed UFOs During Lecture.”

Dr. Jack Sarfatti, a theoretical physicist who personally knows Dr. Davis, commented on whether the propulsion specialist has a longstanding interest in UFO research. “I know Eric Davis ... I am completely aware of his position on this and what his real secret work is/was about.” Dr. Sarfatti then took the opportunity to challenge Dr. Davis on an arcane matter of warp drive physics.

In referring to the possibility of UFOs using some manner of warp drive, Dr. Davis had said, “We haven’t seen UFOs do performances that adhere to the warp drive. . . . We seem them doing ninety degree turns and rapid motions; they disappear and reappear. That is undetermined yet.”

Dr. Sarfatti disagreed. “Eric is wrong about no evidence for warp drive in near earth flight, “ Dr. Sarfatti argued. “180 degree turns at high speed is evidence [of warp drive], as is sudden stopping and apparent dematerialization.“

Speaking to Dr. Davis’ claim of two wormholes that had apparently been witnessed at Skinwalker Ranch, Dr Sarfatti challenged Dr. Davis’s line of reasoning. “[Dr. Davis] contradicts himself when he talks about the possible wormhole on the [Skinwalker] Ranch. Wormhole and warp drive physics are both essentially the same and the evidence is that there is a low power technology for them.”

Skinwalker Ranch is a property located in Uintah County, Utah that is near an area believed by locals and nearby Native Americans to be a center of anomalous events. There, according to its website, a group with former military and intelligence community connections as well as high academic credentials, along with well known Las Vegas television investigative reporter George Knapp, have worked together investigating alleged anomalous events. According to those SSE statements, Dr. Davis worked for Mr. Bigelow there for six years.

The owner of that property is reclusive billionaire Robert Bigelow, who is a real estate developer and founder of the Budget Suite hotel franchise. He has a longstanding public interest in UFOs and bought the property in 1995 specifically to investigate those claims. Professional skeptic James Randi once gave Mr. Bigelow the Pigasus Award for having funded what he termed a ‘useless study’ of an ‘old haunted ranch.’

But Mr. Bigelow is interested in more than just running a hotel chain and supporting investigative work into UFOs. In 1999 he founded Bigelow Aerospace, which seeks to launch an inflatable space station and possible hotel in orbit and maybe build a base on the moon. Interestingly, Bigelow Aerospace is only one of two organizations that, according to FAA guidelines, pilots are directed to forward UFO reports. A skeptical article on Mr. Bigelow’s UFO aerospace company stated:

. . . there is one space-related issue troubling Mr. Bigelow, one on which he feels the need to obtain, even at potentially great cost, the best counsel available: UFOs. It is not clear whether he fears that UFOs will interfere with his future orbiting hotel chain or if he believes that UFOs harbor some secrets of propulsion or anti-gravity that his engineers might someday be able to put to good use. Whichever it is, Bigelow has contracted MUFON, the largest UFO group in the U.S., with potentially very large sums of money for the pursuit of first-hand UFO information. Indeed, longtime UFO activist Ed Komarek is suggesting that Bigelow’s goal is nothing less than an “alien reengineering project.”

Dr. Davis currently works at the firm Earth Tech for physicist and CEO, Dr. Harold Puthoff; a man who is also listed on the Skinwalker Ranch bio page for having contributed to that project as well. Dr. Puthoff apparently became connected with the ranch project in 1996, when he posted a mission statement in support of Mr. Bigelow’s NIDS initiative.

According to the Skinwalker Ranch website, Dr. Puthoff “. . . served with the NSA during his tour with the navy . . . and would later stay on as a civilian.” Information that is not available on the man’s Wikipedia bio page. His main project of public notoriety was government-sponsored research into PSI phenomena back in the 1970s and 1980s. It was conducted at then Stanford University associated Stanford Research Institute, where he ran the Remote Viewing program from 1972 through to 1985.

Dr. Puthoff’s controversial SRI project was funded to see if psychic phenomena could be used for clandestine purposes. That work led to a classified government project called STAR GATE, a CIA and then DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) funded program intended to obtain intelligence information. It was then a Cold War response to Soviet interest in psychic phenomena and was formally terminated in 1995.

Professional skeptics, in responding to a statistical analysis of PSI research findings, have challenged the research in general:

Because even if [they] are correct and we were to find that we could reproduce the findings under specified conditions, this would still be a far cry from concluding that psychic functioning has been demonstrated. This is because the current claim is based entirely upon a negative outcome. . ..

Dr. Puthoff responded to the standard scientific view of skepticism for such phenomena in the book Mind Reach, co-written with SRI colleague Dr. Russel Targ. Noting that they had once attempted to submit a paper and received this response by one journal editor, “This is the kind of thing that I would not believe in even if it existed.” (P. 169, Hampton Roads Publishing ed.)

In 1985, after Puthoff ended his relationship with the PSI program, he shifted direction to a new line of work. From the early 1990s, he began publishing papers on polarizable vacuum and Stochastic Electrodynamics, authoring or coauthoring such works as “Inertia as a Zero-Point Field Lorentz Force,” as well as, “Polarizable-Vacuum Approach to General Relativity,” and, “Polarizable Vacuum ‘Metric Engineering’ Approach to GR Effects.” This material is considered by many physicists in the advanced propulsion community to be highly relevant to their ideas.

Skeptics have a negative opinion on that work as well, contemptuously referring to Dr. Puthoff’s ideas as ‘fringe physics.’ A Skeptical Inquirer article by Martin Gardner spoke to Dr. Puthoff’s polarizable vacuum and zero-point ideas in this impolite manner:

The nation’s number two drumbeater for [Zero-Point-Energy] is none other than Harold Puthoff, who runs a think tank in Austin, Texas, where efforts to tap ZPE have been underway for years. In December 1997, to its shame, Scientific American ran an article praising Puthoff for his efforts.

But it’s not just Dr. Davis who has a connection with UFO researchers. Dr. Marc Millis met with UFO proponents and venture capitalists in 1999, while he was still on payroll at NASA. This led to an internal NASA investigation into the matter.

According to a 1999 report published in the San Francisco Chronicle, the NASA Office of the Inspector General had been conducting an investigation into a planned meeting between NASA Ames Research Center staff and Silicon Valley venture capitalists. They had planned to meet at an International Space Sciences Organization (ISSO) for event to discuss potential advanced propulsion technologies. The founder of that organization, Joe Firmage, was at the time and remains today, convinced that extraterrestrial spacecraft exist and further that he had met an alien.

In that article, it was reported that NASA’s concern was that proprietary information owned by the government agency might be leaked to private sources. Dr Sarfatti argued that the investigation had been dropped with no findings of wrongdoing. “[It] was nonsense, “ Sarfatti said. “[B]ureaucratic incompetence at NASA and it came to nothing. Too many Keystone Kop NASA security people with too little to do I suppose.”

Dr. Sarfatti said that the meeting had taken place “. . . at the Free Mason Hall in San Francisco on Van Ness Ave.” He didn’t recall if Dr. Davis had been in attendance, but a long list of other UFOlogy luminaries and then head of NASA’s BPP was. “Marc Millis, John Alexander, John Peterson were there,” he said, among several others.

In an email, Dr. Marc Millis confirmed that he had attended that event at the “invitation of sponsors.” Dr. Millis also agreed with Sarfatti that the investigation had been dropped with no findings of wrongdoing and that the event was entirely above board.

When I asked Dr. Millis why, while still holding an official role at NASA, he had attended a meeting with luminaries of UFOlogy and venture a capitalist who all openly believe in UFO and alien visitations, he declined to comment.

Regarding the other attendees Dr. Sarfatti listed, Col. John Alexander wrote, UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies, and Realities, and is often remembered as the man who George Clooney portrayed in the film The Men Who Stare At Goats. John Peterson is a Futurist and founder of the Arlington Institute, and is known for having contacted the Director of Central Intelligence James Woosley in 1993 in order to obtain information on UFOs.

Dr. Sarfatti is a former assistant professor of physics at San Diego State University. He’s held research fellowship positions at Birkbeck College in London, where he worked with renowned physicist David Bohm; the Cornell Space Science Center; the Atomic Energy Research Establishment in Great Britain; and, the Max Planck Institute in Germany. He is noted for being part of a semi-underground counter-culture physics society called the, “Fundamental Fysiks Group”. MIT physicist and historian David Kaiser detailed that story in his recent book, How the Hippies Saved Physics.

Dr. Davis obtained a PhD in Astrophysics in 1991 from the University of Arizona. He co-founded the NASA-JSC's (Johnson Space Center) Advanced Deep Space Transport Technology Assessment Group. He is also the author of numerous speculative peer-reviewed papers on wormholes, warp drive, quantum teleportation, and other advanced propulsion studies. And, as referred to earlier, he co-edited a book on the research findings from NASA’s Breakthrough Propulsion Physics Project before funding for ongoing work was cancelled in 2002. Dr. Davis is listed on the web page of Millis’ successor organization, the Tau Zero Foundation, as among those of the Tau Zero Network. In addition, Dr. Millis confirmed that Davis had “volunteered some consulting” for the NASA effort, and that both had edited the book, Frontiers of Propulsion Science, together. Dr. Davis’ SSE lecture was a synopsis of findings within that book.

He is currently scheduled to speak on advanced propulsion at the 2013 Mutual UFO Network Symposium.

Regarding general research into warp drive and gravity manipulation, a recent io9 article quoted NASA physicist Harold White as saying that a bench lab test is in progress. In addition, Bigelow Aerospace and NASA have announced a partnership where the firm:

. . . will work with a variety of commercial space companies to assess and develop options for innovative and dynamic private and public investments to create infrastructure to support domestic and international government exploration activities alongside revenue generating private sector enterprises.

It should be noted that Dr. Davis’ words at that SSE meeting, and Mr. Bigelow’s interest in UFOs, are entirely at odds with the longstanding official NASA position that “. . . there is no evidence for visits of intelligent aliens to Earth, either now or in the past.”

Neither Drs. Davis nor Puthoff responded to requests for comment.

Was it a bird? A Plane? Or a UFO?? Chinese passenger jet hits mysterious object at 26,000ft and lands with severely dented nose cone

• The Air China Boeing 757 was forced to make emergency landing
  
• It landed with a severely dented and scratched nose cone
  
• Pilot heard a large bang and then the plane 'struggled to perform'

A passenger jet was forced to make an emergency landing after a mysterious mid-air collision with a 'foreign object' at 26,000ft severely dented its nose cone. 

The front of the Air China Boeing 757 had been pushed in and scratches and scraped paintwork  were clearly visible when it landed. 

The plane was climbing over China when a large bang was heard from the front of aircraft.

Pictures of the Air China jet show the damage the mysterious mid-air collision caused to its nose cone after

The pilot said the aircraft was struggling to perform and he immediately called air traffic controllers, according to reports.

He was then allowed him to return to the airport.

Experts said investigations into the suspected crash have raised suspicions that the aircraft was hit by a 'foreign object'.

However, they do not believe it was caused by a bird strike as no blood or feathers were visible on the dented nose cone.

The damage was only spotted when the plane, which was travelling from Chengdu to Guangzhou, safely landed.

The pictures have prompted online speculation that it was caused by a UFO or a drone strike.

Other theories posted on the Aviation Herald include pressure from rapidly heated and expanded air.   

Former government UFO investigator Nick Pope told The Sun that an examination of the nose cone should reveal what hit it.

The dented nose cone has caused speculation online that the aircraft hit a UFO as it flew over China

He said traces of whatever collided with the aircraft should be visible.

However, he questioned whether the 'secretive' Chinese would reveal the cause.

Mr Pope told The Sun: 'Cases like this show that whatever people believe about UFOs, there are serious air safety issues here.

'MoD and CAA files contain dozens of reports of near misses between UFOs and commercial aircraft.

'It's only a matter of time before there's a catastrophe.'

No one was hurt in the mysterious incident.

Last week, it emerged that three passenger jet pilots saw UFOs above Britain's Scientology headquarters on their approach to Gatwick Airport.

A report revealed that they each saw 'two flat, silver discs', with some flying within 100ft.

Air traffic control then spotted six UFOs on their radars before they suddenly disappeared.

The encounter, which was probed by the UK Airprox Board, happened on December 30 just before 9am over the Scientology headquarters in East Grinstead, Sussex.
