Mexico, Hermosillo, 11 March – An unidentified flying object caused hundreds of citizens to travel to the outskirts of the state capital of Sonora to see the lights that rose capriciously into the sky for three hours. In the end, it was just a prank.
Around 19:00 hours, residents of several districts located to the south of Hermosillo reported seeing various multicolored lights flying in formation over the city. The word “OVNI” (UFO) quickly became a trending topic on Twitter and Facebook.
The hitherto unidentified flying object caused such expectation that hundreds of curiosity seekers headed for Cerro de la Virgen and the Santa Clara Bridge, located to the south on the outskirts of Hermosillo to see the phenomenon. Squad cars of the Municipal Police had to reach the site to disperse rubberneckers fascinated by the alleged UFO.
“I was riding on a motorbike with my husband and we suddenly saw all the locals were looking skyward. There were some yellow lights flying very strangely; they were neither airplanes nor helicopters because they remained still for a long time, and suddenly began descending the hill before rising again,” said an eyewitness to the phenomenon, whose curiosity got the better of her for over three hours, unable to believe what she was seeing.
At 21:30 hours, the lights descended on a plain to the western side of the Mexico-Nogales International Highway across from the Instituto Superior de Seguridad Publica del Estado de Sonora (ISSPE). Some youths approached them to find out that the UFO was a plastic bag with a helium balloon containing a set of battery-powered LEDs, manipulated by the pranksters with a fishing line.
The topography of the area where the object was seen hovering was an important part of the deception, since by being located in an elevated area, it gave the impression that the multicolored lights were over Hermosillo.
Two witnesses in Concord, CA, reported watching and videotaping a green light UFO that apparently moved intelligently before they lost sight of it to nearby trees, according to March 20, 2014, testimony in Case 54836 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness and his wife were in the backyard when a green light was seen to the southeast about 10:10 p.m. on March 14, 2014.
“Seemed about 4 or 5 miles out maybe and 200 or 300 hundred feet up,” the witness stated. “I was joking to her and saying, 'Look, a U.F.O.' and then I thought to myself – Look, no flashing lights. As she looks it starts making these sudden jerking movements and then just stops.”
While his wife ran inside to get his telephone to capture video, the object began moving side-to-side.
“My wife gives me my phone and I film it going across the sky with jerking motions, northbound. Then it stops again and looks like it turns red. It has what seems like a port on the side with a light – solid green – then red – then back to green. We watch as it starts to go down very slow and then disappears behind some trees of our neighbors.”
The two ran to the front yard for a better view, but were unable to see the object again.
The case was reported to MUFON on March 20, 2014. One video clip was uploaded with the case report. California MUFON is investigating. Fullerton is a city located in northern Orange County, CA, population 135,161. Recently covered California UFO reports include:
California has a UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. California had 59 reports during February 2014 - the highest reporting state in the nation.
You can read more details about other recently reported cases at the UFO Examiner home page.
The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or man-made. If California MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
It’s now time to address the question of why these activities are being carried out in the first place. Why are domesticated and various wild animals being so horrifically mutilated? The problem is that we simply don’t know.
In an attempt to answer this question, the organs most commonly missing from mutilated cattle namely; the blood, eye, ear, tongue, jaw tissue, brain, testis, ovaries, as well as the digestive, pulmonary and circulatory organs were compared to organs used to test for various known toxins and teratogens. This is a long, complex and time consuming endeavor which even at this time remains incomplete. However, something of great interest was discovered. The organs taken from mutilated animals are very similar if not identical to soft tissue used to detect the presence of “prions” in various mammals.
“A prion is a small infectious particle composed of abnormally folded protein that causes progressive neurodegenerative conditions. These mis-folded proteins do not multiply in the host organism that they infect. Instead they affect the brain structure by acting as a template, inducing proteins with normal folding to convert to the abnormal prion form.”
“These newly formed mis-folded proteins, in turn, act as further templates for the conversion of more normal proteins. There is therefore an exponential accumulation of the prions in the tissue of the central nervous system.”
“Mad Cow Disease” or Creutzfeldt – Jakob Disease
and Alzheimer’s Disease
So prions are unevenly folded proteins that have debilitating long term effects on the brain tissue of organisms that ingest them. They have been associated with “Mad Cow Disease” in bovines and Creutzfeldt – Jakob Disease in humans. In 2009 an unexpected link was discovered between infectious prions and Alzheimer’s Disease. [14] Since it is estimated that Alzheimer’s disease affects more than 20 million people worldwide, the significance of this link is of great importance to the population at large.
Coincidently, our awareness of prions also dates back to the early 60s, just prior to the first reported mutilation of Lady. Aliens with presumably a far more advanced technology must surely be aware of the existence of prions and their potential implications for humankind’s health. However, except for health officials and those who define and regulate health policies, very little is known by the public of the implications of prion related diseases. So it’s entirely possible that aliens where somehow aware of a sudden rise the background rate of prions.
The first notable consequence of Mad Cow Disease or specifically bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) occurred in Great Britain back in 1986 and peaked between 1992 and 1993. At that time sampling indicated that only three of every 1,000 cows were infected, however, the epidemiological and financial considerations of the disease were considerable. In response to rapidly growing health consequences to the general population, British health authorities destroyed millions of cattle. [15]
Despite these drastic measures the European Union and a number of other countries banned the import of British beef. Then in May 1995 the first recorded human death linked to Mad Cow Disease occurred in England. His name was Stephen Churchill, he was 19 years of age, and died from an illness that looked like Creutzfeldt – Jakob disease (CJD), a disease that usually strikes those over 55. Later two other similar deaths were recorded in Britain that year. When scientists examined the brains of these patients, they found unusual spongiform symptoms.
In May 2003, Canadian health officials reported their first case of Mad Cow Disease. By then it was readily evident that tainted meat had been eaten by humans. It is now recognized that cattle [vegetarians] get the disease from eating commercial feed that includes bone and brain from other animals including other bovines. Grazers, such as cattle, horses, sheep and a number of other domestic animals have recently been provided with feed that contains the ground-up parts of other animals in order to increase their protein intake. In turn this feed carries with it the risk of spreading the disease to humans who consume meat and dairy products from these animals.
While the primary method of prion infection in animals is through ingestion, current research suggests that prions are be also deposited in the environment through urine, saliva, feces and other body fluids. Even the remains of affected dead animals buried in the soil may harbor prions that linger by binding to clay and other minerals in the surrounding area. [16]
Stanley Prusiner, a Nobel Prize Laureate at the University of California, has recently uncovered evidence to suggest that manure rich cattle fields, as well as watering holes in these fields, could hasten to spread prion related diseases. Furthermore, any water reservoirs frequented by cattle could also spread prion diseases through irrigation of nearby fields and by leakage into subterranean reservoirs. [17]
To make matters even worse prions are nearly indestructible. One study found that even exposing prions to temperatures of 134 °C (274 °F) for 18 minutes in a pressurized steam autoclave was not enough to destroy active prions. [18] Consequently, even the incineration of contaminated livestock may not be enough to eradicate the prions within their bodies.
Once an animal is infected with some form of prion disease, the incubation period is relatively long (5 to 20 years) depending on the species. However, “once symptoms appear the disease progresses rapidly, leading to brain damage and death. Neurodegenerative symptoms can include convulsions, dementia, ataxia (balance and coordination dysfunction), and behavioural or personality changes.” [19] However, all known prion diseases, collectively called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are at present untreatable and fatal.
TSE’s: A Valid Hypothesis
If we accept the implication that TSEs are a serious and growing menace to an ever growing global population, it is likely this knowledge is understood by aliens as well. The Prion Hypothesis suggests that aliens are mutilating cattle in order to monitor the spread of prion related diseases in animal life throughout the world. If this hypothesis holds true, we may soon be learning that sea creatures like seals and dolphins throughout have also been found to be contaminated with TSEs.
This Hypothesis has a corollary. Given the potential threat of prion related TSEs to the world’s human population, various scenarios and their consequences must already have been carefully reviewed by high ranking authorities. If so, the presence of dark, unmarked helicopters near mutilation sites could signify that covert government agencies are actively involved in similar prion monitoring. Perhaps it is even possible that such agencies are taking clues as to the possible spread of TSEs by following up on alien mutilation activity.
Assuming that aliens are indeed real and that they are in fact already interacting with humanity; it seems entirely possible that animal mutilations are their means of monitoring our demise as well as that of a wide range of other life forms.
Conclusions
Evidence confirming the existence of unexplainable animal mutilations is ubiquitous and robust. Conventional explanations have failed to account for their global prevalence, the methodological precision of the mutilations, and of a lack of blood and missing organs uncovered during necropsies. This situation is exacerbated by a notable lack of urgency shown by national governments toward the assaults. What remains is circumstantial evidence that the mutilations are extraterrestrial in origin. Though unorthodox, this hypothesis remains the most viable explanation for the cause of these events.
While we remain unsure of the reason why mutilations are taking place, there is compelling evidence to suggest they are UFO related. Conventional explanations such as natural predation, human intervention in the form of satanic cults or black ops programs have all failed to account for the bizarre nature of reported findings. All the while, reports of UFO activity at mutilations sites persist around the world.
Assuming the alien hypothesis is correct, it would be reasonable to assume that animal mutilations served a purpose in the alien agenda. The Prion Hypothesis suggests that they are monitoring the slow spread of prion related diseases throughout the world; an event with severe implications not only for humans but also for the entire planetary food chain. It would certainly imply a biological degradation that has been ongoing for the past several decades.
The Prion Hypothesis advances a number of serious considerations.
(1) Aliens are in fact here and the cause of animal mutilations.
(2) Aliens are actively monitoring the spread of prion related diseases throughout the globe.
(3) Knowledge of the seriousness of these diseases are known to national authorities and they are intentionally hindering any investigation of the mutilation phenomenon for reasons of containment.
(4) There is a link between UFO activity and the presence of dark, unmarked helicopters at mutilation sites.
To dismiss this Hypothesis because of its unorthodox nature would be ill advised. It contains testable inferences which could help resolve the animal mutilation phenomenon. What really matters is not whether the Hypothesis is correct or not. What’s important is that the entire matter be seriously investigated by the best means possible and that resulting findings be freely disseminated.

Their sexuality makes no difference regarding our friendship since they know I'm heterosexual and that's perfectly fine with them. If you think the men might be less than masculine then think again. I'd use the word ' fierce ' in describing the men.
Our relationship hasn't always been smooth sailing. They once threw weapons at me twice on the same day. At that time we were in the getting to know one another stage and I pressed the wrong buttons with a few ill considered jokes aimed at them.
Unless you don't mind an electrical grid placed in midair, right next to you and burning your arm I'd recommend not pushing the off color joke envelope too far. As a reminder of their disapointment in me they later put a smaller version of the weapon on the passenger seat of my car.
“Thinking of you,” seemed to be that message.
So, that's how we met and remember I didn't know they were human at the time but I did know they were on my side.
Regarding extraterrestrials you're either on one side or the other. One is good and the other is bad. There is no middle ground.
It took years for them to accept me. I distinctly remember one particular telepathic exchange in which I asked twice for clarification concerning a particular subject.
The answer I received was: ” We only say things once. “
And that contact didn't sound awfully friendly either.
However, I never forgot that incident and realized that he was dead serious.
Although we've known of each other for four years my friends waited until this year to tell me that they are, in fact, human. They will not offer any hints or indications of what our future holds. Nor do they provide me with any futuristic expectations. In other words, we're on our own as far as their concerned.
Extraterrestrial battles are raging all around us. These can be seen in the daily meteor/fireball sightings. Roughly 90% of these things target the United States.
Since meteors from space can't consciously target a 6% land mass over any planet or produce 90% of all meteorical activity over that 6% area assigning the label meteors to, what could only be, aerial ET battles is fantasy. They aren't meteors they're ET craft.
Because we are considered their children my Human ET friends are engaged in aerial battles with Greys. The 2013 Russian meteor explosion near Chelyabinsk was actually a downed black triangle piloted by Greys.
By typing ' Russian meteor UFO ' in YOUTUBE anyone can see the susposed meteor has no tail, is being repeatedly fired on and its size compares to that of a black triangle.
Over the last year we've become much closer. I've become telepathic on a full time basis and I assume that's because we've been working together so much. In fact, I'm now considered a companion to them which holds some measure of dignity.
There are many personal, very touching moments we've shared but I won't be sharing those experiences.
Once I was simply fed up with all things extraterrestrial. The Greys, the Humans – all of it. I wanted no contact, no telepathy, no suggestions from anyone. I wanted to be telepathy free like everyone else. They respected my wishes and did not contact me.
That lasted all of two days. Hey, the Greys are beyond lunatics but the Humans I need.
Senator Nelson must be reading UFO Digest. I have been writing about how US government is in a real pickle with Russia.
Nelson flew on the Space Shuttle so he should have understood the ramifications of retiring the shuttle with no other alternative means of human space travel. What were they thinking? The vulnerability of America is showing.
Nelson recognizes that Russia is our only way up to the trillion dollar ISS. Tickets are 70 million per astronaut. Russia might change its mine on how much it will cost for that ticket. Capitalism is all about making money and right now Russia has a monopoly on human space travel.
The United States is allocating needed assets to deter Russia from annexing Crimea by imposing economic sanctions against their leaders. This may be the time not to pay Russian millions of dollars to get our astronauts up into space but rather invest that money into our own private space programs.
Our Congress and Presidents have let the American people down. Senator Nelson is pointing this fact out too. Wouldn't it be better not to outsource our space program to Russia and to pay Americans instead?
On the bright side, the newspapers and NASA has reported its work as usual on the International Space Station (ISS). Some people think they should get the Nobel Peace Prize for showing how the two countries can achieve peace. It has to be a bit nerve racking up there when you see headlines like “Russia will make US into nuclear ash” threatens military.
America used to be at the forefront of space travel. Our national security has become vulnerable and Russia has proven that. America is working on the SpaceDragon X program, which should be running in 2017. NASA is working on a new space launch system but we need it today. Putin has shown America that it's vulnerable. We should never be at the mercy of a foreign power by being seduced by outsourcing.
We need to invest in America for goodness sake its America's money.
Two days after Lady’s body was found a Denver pathologist named John Henry Altshuler, M.D. [4] examined the horse’s carcass. According to testimony he provided years later:
“When I got to the horse, I could see that it was cut from the neck down to the base of the chest in a vertical, clean incision. At the edge of the cut, there was a darkened color as if the flesh had been opened and cauterized with a surgical cauterizing blade. The outer edges of the cut skin were firm, almost as if they had been cauterized with a modern day laser. But there was no surgical laser technology like that in 1967. … I cut tissue samples from the hard, darker edge. Later, I viewed the tissue under a microscope. At the cell level, there was discoloration and destruction consistent with changes caused by burning. …Then inside the horse’s chest, I remember the lack of organs. Whoever did the cutting took the horse’s heart, lungs and thyroid. The mediastinum (central chest compartment for organs) was completely empty – and dry. How do you get the heart out without blood? It was an incredible dissection of organs without any evidence of blood.” [5]
Dr. Altshuler also discovered that hemoglobin located at the edge of the cutting site had somehow been cooked.
“The animal mutilation excisions do NOT show any carbon residue. But Earth life is carbon-based and all tissue exposed to the heat of a normal laser should show carbon residue that looks like black pepper grains under microscope magnification.” [5]
Portal incisions through which internal organs are removed are found to be uniformly smooth and bloodless with serrated edges similar to those produced by a tailor’s pinking shears, or from the impression made by a cookie cutter in dough.
Soft tissues removed from the cavity of mutilated carcasses include those associated with the digestive, reproductive, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic and respiratory systems.
Bodies Found in Trees and Power Lines
In addition to the actual physical mutilations, other strange factors are consistently related to these incidents. For example, in some cases the ground beneath a carcass is markedly depressed suggesting that the animal was dropped from a considerable height. Consistent with this impression, the limbs, ribs, and other bones of the dead animals often show fractures consistent with trauma caused by sudden impact. In a few cases, trees in close proximity to the dead animal show evidence of broken boughs and branches again suggesting the carcass had been to the ground. A related observation is that occasionally, the carcasses of large wild animals like dear, elk and rams are inexplicably found in trees or entangled in high voltage power lines necessitating their removal by utility companies.
Then there is the factor of carcass avoidance. Contrary to official belief, Dr. George E. Onet [6], a doctor of veterinary microbiology and cattle mutilation investigator, claims that the carcass of mutilated cattle are consistently avoided by large scavengers such as coyotes, wolves, foxes, dogs, skunks, badgers, and bobcats. Furthermore, even domesticated animals are “visibly agitated” and “fearful” of a mutilated carcasses. This observation is frequently reported by cattle owners but is apparently disregarded by officials as being too anecdotal to warrant consideration.
Bias for Younger Victims?
Statistical analysis of mutilated animals has thus far been very limited. However, Dr. Howard Burgess [7] has reported from the study of a limited survey of mutilated reports that nearly 90 percent of cattle are between four and five years of age. Since their average longevity is between 15 and 25 years, it would appear that the perpetrators of these acts have a bias for younger bovines. Unfortunately, Dr. Burgess’ finding has not as yet been replicated.
The only consistent clue regarding the cause of these mutilations are reports of UFOs, strange nocturnal lights, and occasionally of dark, unmarked helicopters operating in the vicinity of where mutilated cattle are later found. Such sightings have fueled suspicion among ranchers that either UFOs or some secret government agency is responsible for the loss of their livestock. One must wonder why the military or covert government agency would so boldly experiment on domestic cattle when such activities could be carried out far more discretely at a private government facility. Interestingly, over the course of nearly half a century, law enforcement agencies have not been able to identify a single person responsible for carrying out these acts.
Circular Depressions Left Behind
While no tracks are evident at mutilation sites, other strange physical traces are occasionally observed. These traces consist of large discolored circular rings in the soil which defies any normal growth of vegetation for long periods of time. They are in fact quite similar to, if not identical, with physical traces left behind by known UFO landings. Occasionally smaller triangular depressions are also found. Their shape would suggest possible landing gear. Obviously, these clues should be carefully followed up by investigators.
Animal mutilations are not limited to the western states and Canadian provinces. They are found wherever cattle are herded throughout the world. It is now well established that these events are global in scope. Since the publication of Lady’s mutilation, thousands of similar cases have emerged from around the world. Recognized “hot spots” of activity include such divergent regions as Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, parts of Europe, the Canary Islands, China, Southeast Asia and Australia. Needless to say, many other mutilation sites have not been investigated or made public. While the number of reported cases is not easy to estimate, approximately 10,000 have been collected dating back to the mid-1960s.
One European country prominently involved in the private investigation of mutilation cases is the United Kingdom (U.K.). There a group known as the Animal Pathology Field Unit (APFU) which has been diligently investigating such cases since 2002. Their work and findings have been brought to the public’s attention though the lecturing efforts of Richard D. Hall [8]. The APFU is now prominently involved in a continuing investigation of sheep mutilations affecting many rural areas of the British countryside. But while sheep mutilations have dominated their concern, investigations have also been conducted on a wide range of other domestic and wild animals.
An Array of Animals Mutilated
The mutilation pattern found in sheep is very similar but not identical to those reported in cattle. Occasionally cats and dogs and other small domestic animals are found cut in half with their internal organs gutted out. The APFU has also found many wild creatures such as badgers, groundhogs, and even small deer are often decapitated with the heads dispersed a great distance from their torsos. Another unusual mutilation pattern has been noted in foxes and small deer. Their mutilations consists of a small hole is bored through the upper skull from which the animals brains are mysteriously removed.
Land animals are not the only creatures found mysteriously mutilated. In the northern U.K., large numbers of seals and dolphins have been discovered mutilated in a strange corkscrew pattern. Initially government officials attributed these findings to accidental deaths caused by contact with propeller blades of large ships. However, investigations by the APFU have failed to pinpoint any association with any known watercraft or other mechanical devices found at sea. Furthermore, the remains of these sea creatures are often found some distance inland far from where these animals would presumably wash ashore.
As in the U.S., British sheep herders have turned to law enforcement for assistance in determining the cause of mutilations in their flocks. So far the results have been mixed. By and large, law enforcement officials have been frustrated by their inability to either determine the source of these crimes or to capture those responsible for the mutilations. In turn, law enforcement has sought the assistance of veterinary pathologists for forensic clues. Thus far veterinary findings have been inconclusive. The unusual nature of these mutilations has led most veterinarians to refrain from drawing any conclusions over the precise cause of the mutilated animals’ deaths.
Even so, a small number of law enforcement officers and concerned veterinarians have ventured to offhandedly state that the mutilations must be extraterrestrial in origin. This view has not been well received by their respective organizations, the scientific community, and especially governmental authorities. Even the media has generally “pooh poohed” the notion that extraterrestrials are involved. Reluctance of authorities to carry out more comprehensive investigations of the phenomenon has only exacerbated the situation. To date nothing has been resolved. All the while cattle, horses, sheep and a host of other domesticated and wild animals continue being mutilated.
Noting more examples of these mutilations would add little to what has already been presented. But cases similar to those seen in the U.S. and U.K. are being reported throughout the world. The only significant correlation to these mutilations has been their association with unidentified nocturnal lights and dark, unmarked aerial vehicles. Quoted below is a typical example of such reports. This report is dated July 15, 1984, from the Sunday Times in Perth, Australia:
“Cover-up alleged over UFO-linked animal slaughter: Many reports of UFOs and strange lights in the sky. Farmers in the Adelaide Hills have discovered mutilated animal corpses and burn marks on the ground. … In one incident, researchers say a farmer discovered four cows with holes drilled into their skulls and the brains removed…” [9]
A Review of the Evidence
At this point it would be worthwhile reiterating a number of consistent facts relating to the mutilation phenomenon. They are:
1. For the past five decades horses, sheep, goats, and a variety of other domesticated animals, as well as a wide range of wildlife and even aquatic creatures have been found mutilated throughout the world.
2. These mutilations have been carried out in a premeditated fashion with great efficiency and precision.
3. One of the most common characteristics of these mutilations is the complete absence of blood in and around the dead carcasses.
4. A common mutilation pattern in cattle and sheep consists of: (1) a jaw swipe whereby all muscle and tissue are removed down to the bone usually on one side of the jaw, (2) the removal of one or both eyes and ears, (3) excision of the tongue deep at its root, (4) removal of internal and external genitalia, and (5) removal of digestive and other soft internal organs through small circular orifices cut through the flesh.
5. Circular or tear shaped orifices to the inner viscera show a laser-like cauterization on their borders leaving what resembles small “cookie cutter” like serrations.
6. Other reported mutilations include decapitation, bifurcation of the torso with all internal organs removed, small portals bored through the skull from which the brains have been removed, and in the case of seal and porpoises, deep corkscrew lacerations running along the entire length of their bodies.
The third and final installment of this article will be published tomorrow Sunday, March 23, 2014!
It was twilight on a warm Sunday evening in mid-June 1970 in East Aurora, NY. Patrick’s mom and sister were fussing with something in the garage, but eleven year old Patrick didn’t care about that. He was blissfully involved with shooting baskets in the driveway before bedtime.
He was dribbling back to his shooting position when he noticed an odd light coming toward him. His first impression was that it was just a low flying airplane or maybe a helicopter. He thought to himself, that’s no big deal.
1970 UFO – TWO BEINGS IN THE COCKPIT
He shot another basket retrieved his ball and while returning to position he glanced back at the bright object. That’s when he realized that this thing wasn’t making any sort of noise; this puzzled him. He kept watching the object as it slowly and silently flew over the tops of the neighborhood’s tall maple trees.
Adult Patrick recounts to us “that he sort of felt helpless.” He just stood there and stared at this thing as it silently glided over the tree tops toward him. When the object got to within a football field length from him he was able to make out that it was spherical in shape and had a yellowish color but not glowing. As the object hovered at tree top level a mere few houses away he was able to make out a “cockpit.”
“That’s when I saw them!” Patrick said. He clearly saw two occupants silhouetted by the cockpit light. He tells us “the being on the right was apparently standing up; arms spread apart apparently standing at a control panel.” Then he clearly remembers, “The other occupant was sitting down, as I could only see its shoulders and head.” He could make out that the beings had round looking heads and slim bodies.
He’d been observing this thing for what seemed like 10 minutes when finally the object passed overhead. That’s when he “stuttered a call” to his sister to come see. But before she could reach him, Patrick glanced back at the object, just in time to see it rapidly climbing high into the night sky.
He says his sister, “Didn’t see it, but due to my excitement, she knew he had just seen something.”
Patrick jumped on his sister nearby bicycle and quickly rode to the school parking lot in an effort to catch another look at this amazing thing. “I didn’t see anything but stars.”
As we all know the weather in New York the past few months has been horrid. As a result sighting reports are down significantly, so let’s look at some NY sightings from the early 1970’s:
9 August 1970: at about 1 p.m. a Rotterdam resident was in front his house with family and saw an object nearby that clearly wasn’t a conventional aircraft. Upon closer observation he says they saw a saucer shaped object hovering in the neighborhood; suddenly it flew away at tremendous speed.
10 July 1971: sometime in the evening a Bayside Queens resident and family witnessed a glowing flying disk hovering near the utility poles.
Summer 1972: at about 6 p.m. a Merrick resident was out riding a bike and witnessed a ball of fire light travelling at 90 degree angles.
September 1972: at about 9 p.m. eight Katonah residents witnessed a strange bright object hovering at tree top height in a nearby field. The report states that the object was changing colors then silently took off at great speed.
10 July 1973: at about midnight a number of Geneseo residents observed a cigar shaped UFO object was slowly moving just above tree line and was being followed along county roadway by two town police, a state trooper, and civilians in their vehicles for about seven miles.
August 1975: sometime in the evening a Sanborn family was motoring on State Route 31 when a bright object descended from the sky and hovered over the car, terrifying the passengers. The account was only recently reported by the family for fear of ridicule.
1 July 1975: at about 10 p.m. some Bethpage residents were having a summer night’s conversation when they noticed a strange object fly and hover close to or over Grumman Aerospace site. It was a disk shaped object with a rim of flashing lights around its border.
If you have a UFO sighting to report, you can use either one of the two national database services: www.NUFORC.ORG or www.MUFON.COM Both services respect confidentiality.
The UFO seen at the El Yeso Reservoir was twice the size of the National Stadium.
The photo of an alleged UFO in Chile has left more than one viewer startled after that country’s Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anomalos (CEFAA) confirmed its authenticity.
The image was taken in the area known as El Yeso Reservoir by a Venezuelan couple living in the southern country. The image was investigated by CEFFA through its director general, Gen. Ricardo Bermudez (Ret.).
“After considerable research time we reached a series of conclusions that are the same obtained in the United States, and which are: this photograph is real and not a hoax; Second, that the incidence of the light in these clouds is the same as that which falls upon the object; Third, that it has its own light, and therefore a series of portholes are visible. This is according to our Ph.D in meteorology, and according to the clouds existing at the time during that season in the Cordillera, makes it twice the size of the National Stadium (in Chile),” he told Terra Chile.
“We do not know what it is or where it came from, but the anomalous aerial phenomenon described as an unidentified flying object is real and we have the proof and the eyewitness accounts to support it,” notes Bermudez, who was a military pilot for the Chilean Air Force, flying F-5 fighters among other craft.
“We receive over a thousand reports each year and 95% are anomalous phenomena that we can fully justify. We discard 2% from the remaining five per cent, leaving us with 3% to which no scientific answer can be found. This is being studied because it is real and occurring worldwide.”
CEFAA, created in 1997, is an agency of the Technical Aeronautics School (ETA), a body which went on to become a branch of the General Secretariat of the General Office of Civil Aeronautics in Chile.
Its mission according to its website, is to compile, analyze and study all reports of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) occurring over Chile “through serious, objective and scientific investigation in order to determine whether the safety of air operations have been jeopardized, thus contributing to the safety of aviation in Chile.”
There are human extraterrestrials and they look like us. Their eyes are a little larger than ours and I assume that is the result of their physical evolution. They have been around far longer than the human species which we represent. In fact, they are our ancestors.
I first met them in The Ringer. The Ringer is both a mental and physical extraterrestrial realm where I was taught, tested, tortured, tricked, and almost died on two occasions.
I refer to The Ringer as both mental and physical because extraterrestrial contact is often times purely cerebral and there were physical aspects to my experience. In October of 2011 I wrote a book about that experience and I would strongly recommend avoiding The Ringer if at all possible.
Fortunately I received some assistance from, what I term, good ET's.
At the time I had no idea who these ' good ET's ' were or what species they were but if you find yourself in The Ringer you won't be concerned about ascertaining the identity of any species if you're being offered scathelesss advice and a safe harbor from harm. In truth I never knew they were human during our time together in The Ringer but we did seem to have a lot in common.
The Ringer was so treacherous that finding anyone concerned about my well being was a great relief because I could finally let my guard down a bit. I had been targeted by two deadly alien weapons which, without help, would have undoubtedly killed me.
I was exposed to their weapons for less than three seconds but that was three seconds too long. I'm not going to attempt to describe their weapons other than to say their weapons and the effects they produce aren't anything like you could possibly imagine. They're alien.
Had any alien personally murdered me it would then be responsible for my death. No alien wants to take responsibility for anyone's death because the act of killing another individual will catch up to it in the afterlife. Every extraterrestrial knows this so I was, unknowingly, steered in the direction of those deathtraps and without anyone to blame.
On both near death experiences I was 'pulled out' of the targeted zone (myself) in less than three seconds.
Who pulled me out?
I still don't know. My Human ET friends have never said they saved me so I really don't know who it was that saved my life on either occasion. Whoever it was they were very, very, very fast and my rescuer did comment on the effects of the first weapon.
The reason certain aliens wanted me dead is because I embarrassed them on their own territory – The Ringer. Also, I refused to sell out and become a member of their kind which is unreservedly evil. So, because I frequently told them to go to Hell and worse and wouldn't join their team this human was persona non grata in evil alien land.
I was told I'm the only human being who never sold out in their Ringer. That explains why the Greys screw with me daily. Humans aren't supposed to win against aliens. Still, they are the retarded ones so it's their problem not mine.
As you can see, an animosity still exists between the Greys and me.
My Human ET companions suggested I write about them because few people are aware they exist. I find them surprisingly low tech and very domesticated.
While they are both practical and pragmatic their sense of humor is unusually clever, surprising and unexpected.
Because their satirical barbs are received telepathically a person could find themselves accidentally spewing a beverage while trying to control their laughter in public. This has happened to me more than one once. Of course the people around me wonder why I'm laughing so hard while spewing coffee and with no one around to blame the joke on. That visual also amuses my extraterrestrial friends.
“Look, we made Jim spew.”
Somewhat childlike isn't it?
Certainly immature for such evolved beings.
I also crack them up now and then but this is their story.
They've never lied to me.
I emphasize that point because there is so much deception involved with telepathy. It takes a lot of time to feel comfortable with entities you can't see. In the end it is idiosyncrasies and personality traits which are most helpful in differentiating between each entity. For that reason I don't recommend telepathy. It's simply too dangerous. Deceptive contacts can easily harm you.
My friends are interested in plants, animals, cleanliness, television, a wide variety of music, good manners, good social conduct, laundry and a well deserved respect for all women. They are also enemies of the Greys and because telepathy is an open channel I don't ask their names or where they're from. That could invite danger.
My friends consider themselves sexually free. Bisexuality is normal for them. Perhaps that is an evolutionary aspect of their lives. I really don't know.
Jim Keith died in 1999. The author of many books including Mind Control, World Control, Jim died in hospital during surgery to repair a broken leg he received while attending the infamous Burning Man Festival in Nevada. It seemed a blood clot was released during the surgery and traveled to the heart causing a pulmonary edema.
Ron Bonds
Ron Bonds published books on unsolved mysteries, unexplained phenomena, and conspiracies–from the Kennedy assassination to the ominous black helicopters of the New World Order. In the subculture of the paranormal, his reputation was such that writers for “The X-Files” used to call him for ideas.
In April 2001, fifteen hours after eating a meal in a Mexican restaurant in Atlanta, Bonds suffered an agonizing evening of vomiting and diarrhea. He was taken by ambulance from their home to Grady Memorial Hospital where he died.
During an autopsy, the medical examiner found copious amounts of blood in the bowels, so he sent a stool sample to the Georgia Public Health Laboratory in Decatur. The lab discovered high levels of Clostridium perfringens Type A, a bacterium often seen in small quantities in beef and poultry. When it occurs in larger quantities — anything above 100,000 organisms per gram is considered unsafe — it can release toxins that cause diarrhea, vomiting and, rarely, hemorrhaging. The bacterium figures in 250,000 cases of food poisoning a year, the CDC estimates, only seven of which result in death.
Four days after Bonds ate there, epidemiologists visited El Azteca to collect samples of ground beef from the steam table. When C. perfringens becomes dangerous, it usually has to do with cooked meat being held at too low a temperature. The lab found 6 million organisms per gram — 60 times the safety threshold.
One obvious question is: Why didn't other people get sick too?
Astronomer M.K Jessup
When astronomer and archaeologist M. K. Jessup allegedly committed suicide in Dade County Park, Florida., in 1959 certain alarm bells should have gone off. There is no doubt the well-known author of such influential works as The Case for the UFO and The Expanding Case for the UFO had been depressed. Things had not been going well for him, and he had, it must be admitted, indicated his gloom to close friends, Ivan Sanderson, the biologist, and Long John Nebel, the well-known New York City radio host. Sanderson reported him disturbed by “a series of strange events” which put him “into a completely insane world of unreality.”
Was the reality Jessup was faced with at the time “completely insane” or were there, perhaps, forces driving Jessup to the edge, forces with a plan?
Researcher Anna Genzlinger thoroughly investigated Jessups’s death. Her conclusion: “He was under some sort of control.”
These were the days of secret government mind-control experiments which have only recently been uncovered.
Certain facts about the Jessup case raise redflags. For example, no autopsy was performed, contrary to the state law. Sergeant Obenclain, who was on the scene shortly after Jessup's body was discovered, has said for the record, “Everything seemed too professional.” The hose from the car exhaust was wired on; and it was, strangely, washing machine hose.
Jessup died at rush hour, with more than the usual amount of traffic passing by. Some say that Jessup had been visited by Carlos Allende (of Philadelphia Experiment fame) three days before his death and, according to his wife, Jessup had been receiving strange phone calls. We know the Navy was very much interested in what he was doing; and we all know it is the ONI (Office of Naval Investigations) that has been in the forefront, from the very beginning, of the UFO cover-up.
And what of particular interest was Jessup investigating at the time? Something that was top secret and would remain so for some time: the Philadelphia Experiment.
Dr. James McDonald
Dr. James McDonald, senior physicist, Institute of Atmospheric Physics, and also professor in the Department of Meteorology at the University of Arizona, died in 1971 purportedly of a gunshot wound to the head. There was no one who had worked harder in the 1960s than McDonald to convince Congress to hold serious, substantial subcommittee meetings to explore the UFO reality of which he was thoroughly convinced. He was definitely a thorn in the side of those who maintained the official cover-up.
McDonald, allegedly depressed, shot himself in the head. He didn't die, but he was confined to a wheelchair. Several months after his attempted suicide, he allegedly got in an automobile, drove to a pawnshop, purchased another pistol from his wheelchair, drove to the desert, and killed himself.
Frank Edwards
Frank Edwards, the noted news commentator, author of Flying Saucers: Serious Business, died of an alleged heart attack on June 24, 1967, on the 20th anniversary of the Kenneth Arnold sighting. Was that coincidence?
It so happened that a “World UFO Conference” was being held in New York City at the Commodore Hotel on that very day in June, chaired by UFO publisher and author Gray Barker. Barker stated publicly that he had received two letters and a telephone call threatening that Frank Edwards would not be alive by the conference's end. It definitely looks like someone was sending a message.
The list of mysterious deaths of individuals involved in UFO research and even among those who displayed an interest has grown frighteningly long over the years. Their numbers even include high-ranking government officials and celebrities.
Did former Secretary of Defense James Forrestal really commit suicide as purported by jumping out a hotel window at about the time saucers may have been crashing down in the southwestern desert?
Was UFO writer Damon Runyon, Jr.'s suicidal plunge off a Washington D.C. bridge in 1988 really an act of will?
What really happened to Dr. B. Noel Opan who, in 1959, after an alleged visit by MIBs, disappeared, as did Edgar Jarrold, the Australian UFOlogist, in 1960?
And what of Dorothy Kilgallen, the most famous syndicated female journalist of her day. People who didn’t read her column and articles were familiar with her appearance as a regular on the popular television program What’s My Line? Stationed in England in 1954 – 55, and privy to the highest levels of English society and its secrets, she wired two unusual dispatches which may have contributed to her death.
The first, sent in February 1954, mentioned a “special hush-hush meeting of the world's military heads” scheduled to take place the following summer.
The 1955 dispatch, which barely preceded her death from an alleged overdose of sleeping pills and alcohol, quoted an unnamed British official of cabinet rank who stated: “We believe, on the basis of our inquiry thus far, that flying saucers are staffed by small men–probably under four feet tall. It's frightening, but there is no denying the flying saucers come from another planet.”
Whatever the source (rumored to be the Earl of Mountbatten), this kind of leak in the Cold War atmosphere of the mid- 1950s was an unacceptable leak. The secret CIA-orchestrated Robertson Panel on UFOs had met in 1953 and issued the Robertson Report that represented a new hard-line military attitude toward covering up all significant UFO phenomena. The year 1953 and the meeting of the Robertson Panel truly initiated the UFO cover-up as we know it today.
Did Dorothy Kilgallen actually commit accidental suicide? There appears to be an excellent probability that she had help.
Bizarre Death of Scientists
Certainly nothing is stranger and breeds speculation more quickly, than the 30-some-odd deaths associated with SDI (Star Wars) research at Marconi Ltd. in England between approximately 1985-1988. Here in capsulated form is a list of a few of the more bizarre deaths:
Roger Hill, a designer at Marconi Defense Systems, allegedly committed suicide with a shotgun, March 1985.
Jonathan Walsh, a digital communications expert employed by GE, Marconi's parent firm, falls from his hotel room, November 1985, after expressing fear for his life.
Ashad Sharif, another Marconi scientist, reportedly tied a rope around his neck, and then to a tree, in October 1986, got behind the wheel of his car and stepped on the gas with predictable results.
In March of 1988, Trevor Knight, also associated with Marconi, died of carbon monoxide poisoning in his car.
Peter Ferry, marketing director of the firm, was found shocked to death with electrical leads in his mouth (August 1988).
Also during the same month of the same year, Alistair Beckham was found shocked to death with electric leads attached to his body and his mouth stuffed with a handkerchief. He was an engineer with the allied firm of Plessey Defense Systems.
Andrew Hall was found dead in September of 1988 of carbon monoxide poisoning.
What, you may be asking, does SDI research have to do with the deaths of UFO investigators?
Theoretically, quite a lot. If, as many investigators have hypothesized, Star Wars research was initiated with the dual purpose of protecting “us” against Soviet aggression and/or the presence of UFO craft in our atmosphere, then several possibilities arise. Most compelling is the idea that the soviet KGB, realizing that the Western powers were on the verge of perfecting a high-powered beam-weapon that could be used from outer space or atmospheric space against them, marshaled an all-out espionage offensive to slow or destroy the project. If this scenario is true, and the weapon was indeed successfully developed, we have an explanation for the collapse of the Soviet Union (“Surrender or you might be incinerated”).
Other explanations have been offered. For example, scientists working on the project discovered the true nature of the research they were involved with and the overwhelming stress led them to suicide. Or they discovered that their real collaborators were aliens or Western politicians working with/for Gray aliens. One thing seems obvious. Something went terribly wrong at Marconi. Scientists usually don't commit the kinds of bizarre, “unscientific” suicides we find here.
One other possibility is that a contingent of unfriendly aliens got wind of what GEC and Marconi and its affiliates were up to and, to protect themselves, created enough psychic trauma within the minds of many of the scientists to drive them to suicide.
But if this is so, why have the deaths stopped? Has the project been shelved?
Highly unlikely. The best bet is that the project was completed, roughly about 1988, and whatever it is, beam-weapon or otherwise, it is now operational.
UFOlogy is apparently not a particularly safe area to research or even to enjoy as a hobby.
An Illinois witness reported a UFO incident with four friends at a gravel pit just outside of Freeport involving a triangle UFO under 20 feet that projected a beam of light to the ground, according to March 20, 2014, testimony in Case 54829 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness and four friends were walking into the gravel pit about 8 p.m. on July 1, 1997, when a bright light was first noticed in the western sky.
“The others first dismissed the light as a star,” the witness stated. “For some reason I stayed fixated on the light as we kept walking. Soon the light was too bright to ignore and we all started watching it as it approached directly toward us.”
The witness described the light.
“The object was moving extremely slow. I would measure maybe 5-10 mph. As it approached, what had appeared to be one bright light was now visibly two bright lights in the front and smaller lights in the rear and sides. As it came closer I could begin to hear a silent noise that I can only describe as a hovering sound or 'quiet mechanical air.'”
The object then emitted a beam of light.
“As the craft was almost 15 to 20 feet directly above us, a light came on and projected down straight onto one of the friends I was with. This image will be burned into my brain for the rest of my life. When the beam shined onto him we all began to run and as I looked back I saw him take cover behind a nearby pile of gravel. The light stayed on him as the craft continued to travel east over the tree line and then turned off.”
The witness could not identify the object.
This was not a helicopter or an ultra light plane. After the craft had flown past the tree line we looked back in the direction it had come from and saw 4-5 of the same lights heading in separate directions from west to north. I have reoccurring dreams about the event and think about it constantly."
The case was reported to MUFON on March 20, 2014. No images or videos were included with the report. Illinois MUFON is investigating.
Freeport is the county seat and largest city of Stephenson County, IL, population 25,638. Illinois has a current UFO Alert Rating of 4 with a higher than average number of recent reports nationally. Illinois had 11 UFO reports in February 2014 - the 13th highest reporting state - while California had 59 reports - the highest reporting state in the nation.

10 verlaten, mysterieuze of topgeheime plekken die je nooit zult bezoeken
10 verlaten, mysterieuze of topgeheime plekken die je nooit zult bezoeken
Er zijn een aantal mysterieuze, verlaten, tropische of topgeheim plekken op aarde waar in de meeste gevallen niemand wordt toegelaten. We hebben er 10 voor je op een rij gezet.
Poveglia
Poveglia is een klein Italiaans eiland dat volgens sommige verhalen een spookeiland is. In de Romeinse tijd was het dé plek waar mensen die de pest hadden naartoe werden verscheept om te sterven. Later stond er een ziekenhuis waar gruwelijke experimenten werden gedaan op patiënten. De geesten van de naar schatting 160.000 mensen die er stierven, spoken er volgens de vertellingen nog altijd rond.
Het ‘grootste spookeiland van de wereld’ wordt nu op een veiling te koop aangeboden. Op het spookeiland in de wateren bij Venetië zijn toeristen niet welkom. Slechts een enkele keer wordt het eiland nog betreden of varen mensen met een boot dicht langs de kust.
Herenclub White’s in Londen
Dit is misschien wel de meest exclusieve sociëteit ter wereld. Alleen mannen zijn lid van deze club. Onder de huidige leden vinden we onder meer prins Charles en prins William. De Britse minister-president David Cameron was tot 2008 lid van dit elitaire gezelschap.
Noord Sentinel Eiland, Andaman-eilanden
Op de Andaman-eilanden van India woont een stam die overwegend agressief reageert op buitenstaanders en het meeste contact weigert. Het gaat om een groep van ongeveer 250 Sentinelezen van Noord Sentinel Eiland. Ze verjagen alle bezoekers – van journalisten tot reddingshelikopters – met pijl en boog. Recentelijk is de stam minder schuw geworden, voornamelijk vanwege de honger.
Surtsey
Surtsey is een vulkanisch eiland voor de zuidkust van IJsland. Het is ontstaan door een uitbarsting die duurde van 17 november 1963 tot 5 juni 1967. Gedurende zijn ontstaan werd het eiland intensief bestudeerd door vulkanologen en vervolgens raakten biologen zeer geïnteresseerd in de kolonisatie van het aanvankelijk kale, warme en nieuwe eiland door planten en dieren. Het eiland is verboden gebied voor het publiek.
Vaticaans Geheim Archief, Italië
Het Vaticaans Geheim Archief is de centrale bewaarplaats van alle akten uitgevaardigd door de Heilige Stoel. Het grootste deel van het archief wordt bewaard in een betonnen kubus die de bunker wordt genoemd. In totaal wordt er nu zo’n 85 kilometer aan archiefstukken bewaard.
Van 1612 tot de late 19e eeuw bleef het archief gesloten voor buitenstaanders, wat tot gevolg had dat er werd gespeculeerd over de geheimen die er misschien verborgen lagen. Per jaar worden 1000 onderzoekers toegelaten tot deze ultrageheime bibliotheek.
Het archief bevat onder andere het Dictatus papae, het stuk met de claims voor de pauselijke macht van paus Gregorius VII, het verzoek van Hendrik VIII om zijn huwelijk te ontbinden en brieven van Michelangelo.
Bohemian Grove
Er is een herenclub uit San Francisco die iedere zomer samenkomt op het supergeheime kampeerterrein Bohemian Grove in Californië. Twee weken lang praten politieke en zakelijke kopstukken – van presidenten tot krantenmagnaten – met elkaar over verschillende onderwerpen. Naar verluidt worden er vreemde rituelen gedaan. Ongenode gasten worden gearresteerd.
Area 51, Nevada
Area 51 is een topgeheim onderdeel van de Edwards Air Force Base in de woestijn bij Las Vegas, en niemand weet precies wat er gebeurt. We weten wel dat de CIA erbij betrokken is en dat het bestaan van Area 51 in juli vorig jaar officieel is toegegeven.
De basis is hermetisch afgesloten en wordt vaak genoemd als locatie waar de Amerikaanse overheid buitenaardse intelligente wezens of UFO’s verborgen zou houden. Bekend is dat Area 51 een testgebied is geweest voor pas ontwikkelde spionagevliegtuigen.
Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center, Virginia
Dit is het hoofdkwartier van het Amerikaanse bureau voor rampenbestrijding (FEMA). Op 11 september 2001 werden Dick Cheney en vele congresleden per helikopter naar het centrum overgebracht. Het complex wordt streng beveiligd.
Spionagemuseum van Jiangsu
In dit Chinese museum wordt spionageapparatuur tentoongesteld, waaronder kleine camera’s, microfoons die zijn verstopt in rekenmachines en pistolen die eruitzien als lippenstift. Chinezen mogen het museum bezoeken, maar buitenlanders zijn niet welkom. Het maken van foto’s is er verboden.
Aldwych, Londen
In de twee wereldoorlogen werden ongebruikte delen van dit voormalige metrostation gebruikt om waardevolle kunst veilig op te slaan voor bombardementen. In 1994 ging men over tot de sluiting van het station in de City of Westminster. Er worden nauwelijks rondleidingen gegeven, maar het station is wel regelmatig gebruikt als filmlocatie.

Evidence exists pointing to prehistoric civilizations as advanced as our modern civilization—or perhaps more advanced.
Such evidence could turn our scientific certainties upside down. It wouldn’t be the first time—the history of science proves, after all, that science has been grossly wrong on countless occasions.
Paradigm shifts are ushered in amid abundant controversy. The following discoveries have been contested, but some scientists have maintained that they constitute indisputable evidence that tens of thousands, or even many millions of years ago, humans walked the earth with as much knowledge and culture as today’s people.
1. A Nuclear Reactor 1.8 Billion Years Old
In 1972, a French factory imported uranium ore from Oklo, in Africa’s Gabon Republic. To its surprise, it found the uranium had already been extracted.
They found the site of origin to be a large-scale highly advanced nuclear reactor that came into being 1.8 billion years ago and was in operation for some 500,000 years.
Scientists gathered to investigate, with many explaining it away as a wondrous, yet natural, phenomenon.
Dr. Glenn T. Seaborg, former head of the United States Atomic Energy Commission and Nobel Prize winner for his work in the synthesis of heavy elements, explained why he believes it wasn’t a natural phenomenon, and thus must be a man-made nuclear reactor.
For uranium to “burn” in a reaction, very precise conditions are needed.
The water must be extremely pure, for one. Much purer than exists naturally anywhere in the world.
The material U-235 is necessary for nuclear fission to occur. It is one of the isotopes found naturally in uranium.
Several specialists in reactor engineering have said they believe the uranium in Oklo could not have been rich enough in U-235 for a reaction to take place naturally.
Furthermore, it seems the reactor was more advanced than anything we could build today. It was several miles in length and the thermal impact to its environment was limited to 40 meters (about 131 feet) on all sides. The radioactive waste is still contained by surrounding geological elements and has not migrated beyond the mine site.

2. Peruvian Stone Showing an Ancient Telescope, Modern-Style Clothing
It is thought that Galileo Galilei invented the telescope in 1609. A stone believed to have been engraved as long as 65 million years ago, however, shows a human figure holding a telescope and observing the stars.
About 10,000 stones housed in the Cabrera Museum in Ica, Peru, show prehistoric humans wearing headdresses, clothes, and shoes. The stones depict scenes similar to organ transplants, cesarean sections, and blood transfusions—and some show encounters with dinosaurs.
While some say the stones are fake, Dr. Dennis Swift, who studied archaeology at the University of New Mexico, documented in his book “Secrets of the Ica Stones and Nazca Lines” evidence that the stones date back to Pre-Columbian times.
Swift says one of the reasons the stones were considered fake in the 1960s is that, at the time, it was believed dinosaurs walked dragging their tails, but the stones depict dinosaurs with their tails up, and thus were thought to be inaccurate.
Later studies showed, however, that dinosaurs likely walked with their tails up, as depicted on the stones.

3. Advanced Culture in Cave Paintings
The La Marche caves in west-central France contain depictions over 14,000 years old of people with short hair, groomed beards, tailored clothing, riding horseback and suited in modern style—a far cry from the animal-skin loin cloths we usually imagine.
These paintings were confirmed as genuine in 2002. Investigators, such as Michael Rappenglueck of the University of Munich, insist that these important artifacts are simply ignored by modern science.
Rappenglueck has studied the advanced astronomical knowledge of Palaeolithic people. He writes: “For some years it has been left to broader media coverage (in the form of printed matter, audio-visual material, electronic media and planetarium programs) to raise awareness of proto-astronomy (as well as proto-mathematics and other proto-sciences) during Palaeolithic times.”
Some of the stones from La Marche cave are on display at Paris’s Museum of Man, but the ones that clearly portray prehistoric people with advanced culture and thought are not to be seen.

When paintings from more than 30,000 years ago were first discovered in the caves of Europe in the 19th century, they challenged the commonly accepted understanding of prehistory. One of the greatest critics of the discovery, Emile Cartailhac, came around decades later and became a leading force in proving the paintings are genuine and raising awareness of their importance.
He is now considered a founding father of cave art studies.
The first paintings were discovered by Don Marcelino Sanz de Sautuola, a Spanish nobleman, and his daughter, Maria, in 1879 in the Altamira cave. They showed an unexpected sophistication.
The discovery was dismissed, until the early 20th century when Cartailhac published a study of the paintings.
A photographer captured strange looking objects in some of his beautiful pictures of clouds rolling in over the ocean at night. He can’t figure out what the mysterious objects are and says he has never seen anything like it.
Jim Montanus is a photographer who lives in the town of Greece, New York, a few miles northwest of Rochester. On Wednesday night he was on the docks of the Braddock Bay Marina when he decided to take pictures of the clouds rolling in as they slowly covered the piercing bright twinkling stars against the clear dark night sky.
Montanus told the Democrat & Chronicle newspaper, “It was a very dramatic situation with that front coming in. I was all excited about the photo.”

Upon reviewing the images in the viewfinder he spotted two orange cone shaped objects he had not seen with is naked eye.
He says, “I was looking at these shapes on the back of my cameras and saying what IS it? I don’t believe in UFOs, but, you know, it’s just one of those things. It was just cool.”
It was 9:34 pm, and the objects were to the northwest. The camera was set on 15-second timed exposures, so it could pick up more light in the night sky. The images were captured in several different frames, leading Montanus to believe the objects were moving.

Mantanus posted one of the images with some of the strange objects from some of the other pictures magnified on his Facebook, and he tweeted it.
I’m not kidding, this is freaky! I just noticed this one picture had these crazy looking objects that look like, well, you tell me?
This is not a hoax, it’s not April 1st, this really showed up in one of my pictures. Canadian military exercises? American military exercises? Aliens?
Whatever it is, I’ve never seen anything like it…
Some people had responded that the images were meteors, but Montanus does not agree. He says he can’t figure out what they are. He explained, “It didn’t look like a meteor to me. How a meteor would show up on the camera would be like a stream of light. These were weird, bizarre shapes. I said ‘Look at it, it’s got a parachute or something on it.’ If anything looked like a UFO, it would be that.”
The Democrat & Chronicle did some research themselves. They said Monroe County 911 had no calls about the objects that night. Neither did the National Weather Service in Buffalo. There has been meteor activity in the area, but the meteor shower that day was in the morning, not the evening.
The U.S. and Canadian military do exercises in that area, and occasionally drop flares. However, the FAA said they had nothing in their logs showing military activity in the area that night. The U.S. Coast Guard also said they were not in the area conducting any training that could account for the images. The Canadian air traffic control agency did not respond to the newspaper’s inquiries. The Democrat & Chronicle also noted that the Mutual UFO Network had not had any reports of activity in the area either.
Some have suggested other possibilities, such as Chinese Lanterns, lens flares, light reflecting off of satellites or airplanes, or light refracting off of the atmosphere. However, Montanus has not found a satisfactory answer yet.
Montanus is still mystified by the images. He says, “I was really freaking out when I took it. I’ve never seen anything like it.”
LORA DEL RIO, Spain— Numerous people claim to have seen a pair of “bodiless walking legs” crossing a specific section of the the A-457 road, between Lora Del Rio and Carmona in Seville, Spain.
Picture shows the exact spot on the A-457 where the anomaly keeps manifesting
The most recent “apparition” was reported to local newspaper La Radio de Papel in November, 2013.
Jose Jimenez and his family were reportedly on their way home from the city of Seville, when they observed the anomaly.
“We got in the car to drive back to Lora [Lora Del Rio] at about 12.30 a.m… approximately,” says Jimenez, “when we reached the intersection with The Carretera de Guadajoz, which is about 3 miles or so from Lora… there is a water canal, right next to the “La Trinidad” farmhouse, that happens to be a very dangerous road section. I always take the turns at a slow speed, and my wife sits always behind me helping me out, making sure everything is ok; ‘Pepe you OK?’, ‘Pepe, are you sleepy?’ She sits in the center of the backseat, next to the child. The child had fallen asleep, but after passing the farmhouse’s canal, just before taking the last right turn, prior to the straight stretch of road, you have the Arroyo Del Castillejo bridge about 350 feet from there…well…I see a car coming in the opposite direction, driving over the bridge…so I’m used to having the dipped-beam lights as to not to disturb the other drivers with the main-beam. Besides, I prefer the dipped-beam lights better because that way I avoid road sign reflections that don’t allow you to drive well at night. But suddenly, right after that turn, at about 100 feet or so…I didn’t see it coming out of the right side of the road, it was already in there, already on the road…I see these legs… these legs…very long legs, it looked like black pants, like black pants…or dark blue or something, and the legs kept walking across the road to the left side of the road. I was surprised because I was only able to see some legs…I look to the left side, and it was gone. Right at that time, my wife says ‘Pepe, did you see what I just saw?’ I reply ‘What? If I’ve seen what? What did you see?’ then she says, ‘I saw a pair of long legs crossing the road.’ So I tell her yes, I also saw the legs. I’m telling you this right now and I’m getting goosebumps…I saw it crossing in front of the car, but what I didn’t see were arms or a body attached to it. My wife says ‘neither did I…what do you think it was?’ I say, ‘I don’t know, because I looked well and I wasn’t able to see anything on the side of the road’. The other car that was driving across the bridge, it probably passed us by but I didn’t even noticed it…then my wife says ‘I also looked to the left but,’ you know, since the child was asleep in the baby car seat, she says, ‘I looked, but with the child and the baby car seat I had no way to see anything on that side…what could it be?’ and…here we are now.”
La Radio de Papel Newspaper, November, 2013
The first documented case was reported in 2004 by married couple Fernando Roman and Mercedes Segura from the town of Carmona, who claimed they were driving home from Lora when the man had to abruptly come to a stop “in order to avoid running over the entity with the vehicle”.
“My wife is screaming at me, ‘you are going to run him over!’ So I hit the brakes, and when I looked to see what it was, it was gone,” Roman told the newspaper. “Then we got home and told our neighbors and we were shocked when they told us they had seen the same thing at that spot…” he added.
“When I saw it walking, slowly…they were just legs, just legs, kind of like some sort of fog…but dark. Then it continued crossing the road…and that’s it. My cousin, who drives an ambulance, told me they also saw it,” said Segura.

The second reported case came from Trinidad Cuevas, who explained she was on her way to work at around 4 a.m. in 2011, when she saw the bodiless legs. But there is an interesting difference between the other sightings and this one: the eyewitness didn’t see the strange figure crossing the road. Instead, she said, it walked “parallel to one side” of her car.
The third sighting took place in 2012 and was reported by Maria del Mar. She says it was something that looked like “pants all the way up to the waist”, but without a torso, head or arms
All the witnesses say they don’t believe it was a case of hallucination and that they saw it clearly.
According to journalists in the area, that section of the road is known for causing tragic car accidents, and other type of violent deaths have been reported in the past.
The water canal, adjacent to the infamous section of the A-457, was built by prisoners of the Spanish Civil War in the late 1930s.
Too many people report the same details about the oddity, making it unlikely to be a case of animal misidentification or a homeless person crossing the road. Perhaps an optical illusion, the recurring incident has caught the attention of national investigators who are now flooding the area trying to find an answer to the mystery.

On the evening of March 31, 2014, I was sitting on my porch, which is all glass, when I noticed an unusual red light ,in fact it appeared to be a circular shape illuminated red. It was so different that I immediately grabbed the nearby binoculars. Through the binoculars, it appeared completely different from the single red light. It was clearly two red lights on each side of a center bright white light , five lights total. The difference in appearance from the naked eye was so startling that I looked several times both with the binoculars and the naked eye trying to reconcile the marked change from one to the other. Although it was late dusk when I first looked at it through the binoculars, I could clearly see daylight above, below, and on both ends of it. It was just barely above the horizon and was moving very, very slowly from the west to east at a distance that I estimated to be about one mile from my location. As it moved, it went below horizon level and continued east until I couldn’t see it anymore. I am retired Air Force and have lived at this location for 26 years. We have both commercial and military airplanes and helicopters in this area; therefore, I am completely familiar with their appearance and sound. In no way did this object fit the profile of any conventional aircraft nor did the configuration of the lights on the craft. I subsequently drew a rough sketch of the craft including the pattern of the lights. I used this to inform my wife of what I had seen. The next morning we were again sitting on the porch discussing the flight path of the unknown craft. It was when I was pointing out how the craft flew below the horizon that we noticed power company trucks working on the lines at the exact point that I believed was in the path the craft had taken. During all the years that we have lived here, we have never seen any repairs done on any power lines in the area. Coincidence? We were struck by the possibility of the connection between the two events and thus took pictures of the power crew working on the lines. The reason I have waited until now to report this is I thought, “Who cares. It is going to be hard enough to explain it to my wife and sons. After all, this is the second one I have seen out here and neither time did I have any other witnesses.” I still can recall the first sighting as clear as can be even though it is years later and was a daytime sighting of a near collision between an unidentified cigar-shaped craft and a C-130. military transport plane.

Ce que l'on pensait encore impensable il y a quelques mois vient d'être réalisé par une équipe américaine : introduire deux fabrications artificielles dans l'ADN d'une bactérie et à faire en sorte que la bactérie reproduise ce nouvel ADN modifié...
Pour simplifier leur réalisation, on peut dire que, depuis toujours, le code de la vie transmis par l'ADN comporte quatre lettres : quatre bases azotées nommées ATCG. Les chercheurs américains ont réussi à ajouter deux lettres à ce code fondamentalb et à les faire se répliquer au sein de plusieurs générations de bactéries. L'ADN est un brin hélicoïdal (ou une double-hélice) en forme d'escalier dont les barreaux sont tous fabriqués avec les même matériaux chimiques, il n'existe donc dans la nature que deux sortes de barreaux, puisque l’alphabet biologique fonctionne par paires : dans l’ADN, AT (adénine-thymine) et CG (cytosine-guanine), les bases complémentaires, constituent chacunes les barreaux de la double hélice. Dans l’ARN, autre molécule porteuse d’information génétique, la base T est remplacée par U (pour uracile). La suite de ces lettres (AATTCGTAGC, par exemple) constitue des gènes, selon un code qui commande la fabrication de protéines nécessaires au fonctionnement de tous les organismes vivants.
" L’équipe dirigée par Floyd Romesberg (Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, Californie) est donc parvenue à intégrer dans le génome d’une bactérie, Escherichia coli, une nouvelle paire de bases nucléiques, d5SICS et dNaM, dont la présence a été tolérée par la machinerie de réplication du micro-organisme : cette paire de bases non naturelles se retrouvait dans 99,4 % des descendants de la bactérie. Ces bases inédites ne figuraient pas dans les chromosomes de la cellule, mais dans un plasmide, un anneau d’ADN capable lui aussi de se répliquer au fil des générations, mais non essentiel à la survie de la bactérie.
Les propositions de nouvelles paires de bases s’était multipliées ces dernières années. Mais leur réplication avait eu lieu seulement in vitro. La percée de Floyd Romesberg et de ses collègues a consisté à faire accepter à un organisme façonné par des milliards d’années d’évolution des éléments totalement « orthogonaux », comme le disent les scientifiques. Une prouesse en plusieurs étapes.

Dans un article de commentaire lui aussi publié dans Nature, Ross Thyer et Jared Ellefson (université du Texas, Austin) décrivent ce qui pourrait suivre : faire en sorte que ces bases soient définitivement adoptées par l’organisme qui les réplique ; démontrer qu’elles peuvent être transcrites en ARN in vivo, c’est-à-dire qu’elles servent à coder des messages génétiques pris en charge par l’organisme d’accueil, pour contrôler l’expression des gènes par exemple.
Ce ne serait là qu’un avant goût d’une biologie renouvelée, avec un répertoire plus étendu de paires de bases, et un lexique de protéines infiniment plus riche. Les applications, encore hypothétiques, pourraient concerner la médecine, l’énergie, etc.
Il s’agit là d’un élément-clé d’une discipline en émergence, qui comme d’autres pans avancés des sciences (nanotechnologies par exemple), suscitent des critiques concernant l’éthique et la sécurité. Ces questions étaient au cœur de la première conférence sur la xénobiologie organisée du 6 au 8 mai à… Gênes par le Français Philippe Marlière. La xénobiologie vise à mettre au point des formes de vie étrangères à celles connues sur Terre, du point de vue chimique et du codage informationnel, pour émanciper le vivant de ses substrats naturels.
Pour lui, les travaux de Malyshev et de ses collègues constituent le franchissement d’un « cap symbolique historique : une troisième paire de bases entièrement artificielle a pu être répliquée in vivo. Il ne s'agit que de quelques générations dans une bactérie, mais le Rubicon est franchi. » Il estime cette avancée « dix fois plus significative » que l’annonce récente de l’expression d’un chromosome synthétique dans une levure.
