2014 Aliens, Ufo's, Annunaki. The Ultimate question?
2014 Aliens, Ufo's, Annunaki. The Ultimate question?
De ruimtetelescoop Hubble heeft een wel heel bijzondere foto gemaakt. De sterrenkijker maakte een panorama dat het universum op zijn kleurrijkst toont. Sterrenstelsels van vijf tot tien miljard jaar oud werden vastgelegd op de gevoelige plaat.
Ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA legde voor de eerste keer op een panorama ultraviolet licht vast, dat niet zichtbaar is voor de mens. Het ziet er op de foto uit als een lichtblauw schijnsel dat zich rondom roterende sterrenstelsels begeeft.
Het panorama is een compositie van meer dan achthonderd foto's van de laatste elf jaar. Op het kiekje zijn ongeveer tienduizend sterrenstelsels te bewonderen.
Steeds meer willen we weten hoe het écht voelt om op een andere planeet te staan. Oppervlaktefoto's van Mars en de maan bevredigen onze nieuwsgierigheid niet meer. Voor wie zich afvraagt hoe de atmosfeer van een andere wereld ruikt, hebben NASA-wetenschappers de geur van Titan nagemaakt, de maan van Saturnus. Dat schrijft wetenschapssite MNN.
'Essence of Titan' zou een prachtige naam kunnen zijn voor een nieuw parfum, maar in werkelijkheid is het aroma van Titan niet erg aantrekkelijk. Volgens de onderzoekers ruikt de atmosfeer op de maan vooral naar benzine.
Aanlokkelijk klinkt dat niet. Toch is de geur beter dan de wetenschappers verwachtten op basis van de samenstelling van Titans atmosfeer. Die bestaat namelijk uit stikstof en methaan - een van de primaire gassen die ontsnappen wanneer we een wind laten.
Gele waas Hoe kwamen de onderzoekers dan tot die benzinegeur? Eerst becijferden ze aan de hand van spectromatische gegevens, gegevens over de chemische samenstelling van een object, hoe ze interplanetaire geuren op Aarde kunnen namaken. Daarna gingen ze aan de slag met informatie die verzameld werd door de ruimtesonde Cassini. In hun lab begonnen ze gassen en koolwaterstoffen te mengen en aan te passen, waarna ze het mengsel vergeleken met de beschikbare informatie.
Titans unieke geur kon volgens de NASA-wetenschappers niet bekomen worden met enkel stikstof en methaan. Daarom voegden ze meer ingrediënten toe, waarbij vooral benzeen. Benzeen is een natuurlijk bestanddeel van benzine. Het is gelig van kleur, zoals de gele waas van Titans smog.
Verbrand buskruit De geur leunt al dicht aan bij de unieke signatuur van Titan die werd geregistreerd door Cassini, maar is nog niet perfect. De onderzoekers gaan dus verder tot ze het brouwsel geperfectioneerd hebben. Daar willen ze met dezelfde methode ook het aroma van andere werelden namaken.
Titan is een van de amper vier buitenaardse werelden waarvan we oppervlaktefoto's hebben. De andere drie zijn Mars, Venus en onze eigen maan. Volgens astronauten van de Apollo ruikt de maan naar verbrand buskruit.
The Pleiades are a cluster of beautiful, dazzling stars located in the constellation of Taurus. With a telescope, you can see about one-hundred stars. Without a telescope, you can see only six or seven stars. According to ancient legends, the stars are said to be sisters and the daughters of Atlas. The entire Pleiades cluster is actually the eye of the bull in the constellation of Taurus..
The seven bright stars that helped guide Greek sailors are: Alcyone, Merope, Celeno, Taygeta, Sterope, Electra and Maia. They have been known for thousands of years, surrounded by fascinating legends and stories even to this day.
It is through the Crossing of Time, that the Higher Pleiadian Forces of Light bring us information. This information is vital in our spiritual development. Certain Pleiadians have chosen as their work, a very noble and serious purpose. They strive to work through the layers of human consciousness to bring higher wisdom from the place they dwell at. They are not God, yet they bring wisdom, as many have brought wisdom throughout the ages from higher realms.
Their purpose is not to save your soul, but to enlighten you more to the power and beauty of who you are, and to the divine creation of which we all are a part. People or so called that bring in certain information are in no way divine or special. They are simply willing to tune into another place, another time and receive information. Many humans have always had the capacity to do that. There will be some that will actually take that chance and put it out there for others to partake of.
Here is an insight into amazing and benevolent agenda…
De waarheid achter de 'buitenaardse basis' voor de kust van Malibu
De waarheid achter de ‘buitenaardse basis’ voor de kust van Malibu
Er is momenteel veel te doen rond een vreemde structuur die op enkele kilometers voor de kust van Malibu in Californië op de zeebodem is gevonden. Het ovaalvormige object lijkt te worden ondersteund door een soort pilaren die een ingang vormen naar een donkere ruimte.
Het object ligt op 600 meter onder het wateroppervlak en is ongeveer vijf kilometer lang. Volgens de website van het radioprogramma Fade to Black lijkt het hier te gaan om een onderwaterbasis. Presentator Jimmy Church zei dat één van zijn luisteraars hem afgelopen maand op het fenomeen had gewezen. “Mijn eerste indruk was dat het Grieks, kunstmatig en niet natuurlijk was,” zei Church. “Van bovenaf bekeken heeft het object een bijna perfecte ovale vorm. Het valt op omdat het een soort dak lijkt te hebben.”
Is een buitenaardse UFO-basis de enige realistische verklaring voor deze ‘anomalie’? Geoloog David Schwartz van de Amerikaanse geologische dienst USGS vond de structuur niet zo bijzonder: “Ik denk dat het object natuurlijk is en deel uitmaakt van het continentaal plat. Toen het zeeniveau lager was is dit gebied mogelijk blootgesteld aan erosie. Daarnaast worden er veel aardbevingen waargenomen in deze omgeving. Het enige wat ik zie is variatie in de kustmorfologie.”
De beelden van het object voor de kust van Malibu zijn ook bekeken door de onafhankelijke egyptoloog John Anthony West, die een Emmy Award won voor zijn documentaire ‘Mystery of the Sphinx’, waarin hij samen met geoloog Robert Schoch laat zien dat de Sfinx van Gizeh duizenden jaren ouder is dan gedacht.
“Aangezien het object 600 meter onder water ligt is het volgens mij niet mogelijk dat het door mensen is gemaakt,” zei West. “Ik heb genoeg ervaring opgedaan om onderscheid te kunnen maken tussen geologische formaties en door mensen gemaakte bouwwerken.”
West is geneigd voor de geologische verklaring te kiezen. “De pilaren zijn zo te zien ongelijk verdeeld en meer naar rechts zie je pilaren die zich nog aan het vormen zijn,” ging hij verder. “Ik ben ervan overtuigd dat UFO’s echt zijn, er is gewoon te veel bewijs. Maar verder weten we niets. We weten niet wie ze zijn, waarom ze hier zijn of hoeveel onze overheden ervan weten.”
Ook voormalig FBI-agent Ben Hansen deed een duit in het zakje. “Google krijgt de gegevens van verschillende bronnen, waaronder de marine, de meteorologische dienst NOAA, NASA en andere agentschappen,” zei hij. “Omdat ze vaak gebruikmaken van verschillen technologieën sluit de informatie niet altijd goed aan. Google vertrouwt in die gevallen op programma’s die 3D-omgevingen kunnen genereren. De pilaren lijken het resultaat te zijn van bewerkte beelden die aan elkaar zijn geplakt.”
Er gaan dus verschillende theorieën rond over de anomalie van Malibu. Is het een onderwaterbasis of een geologische formatie? Volgens West kan het een ingang zijn, op dezelfde manier dat water een grot onder het oppervlak kan vormen.
“Tenzij je er met een camera naartoe gaat, weet je niet waar de ingang voor dient,” zei West. “Ik denk alleen dat je niet ver zult komen als je naar binnen gaat. Weinig kans dat ze er de verloren schatten van Atlantis gaan vinden.”
Amazing UFO sighting over Mission Viejo, California on 18th June 2014
Amazing UFO sighting over Mission Viejo, California on 18th June 2014
New amazing video footage of a bright UFO light recorded in the night sky above Mission Viejo, California on 18th June 2014.
Witness said: A super intense light moves slowly over the city of Mission Vieja California, the large object does not resemble any known sky objects we are taught to know about so what in the heavens is it? The sighting started around 10.30pm on June 18th 2014. This is a compilation of videos spanning over 30 minutes.

Unknown lights over Rancho Santa Margarita, California on 18th June 2014
New interesting video footage of unknown UFO lights recorded in the night sky above Rancho Santa Margarita, California on 18th June 2014.
Witness said: I was driving with my girlfriend to her house in r.s.m. I saw a big glowing light over a hilltop in the distance ahead of us. Brighter than any light possible. We drove around the hill to get a closer look. It seemed to have moved further out in the distance. We pulled over next to the road where we saw 5 other people watching the same thing. (As we were standing there people kept driving up to see the same thing). There seemed to be a little bit of a green light coming of the top of it. It seemed to be saucer shaped with antenna or something coming off the top to emit the green light. When we pulled up a second one appeared a little higher just to the left of it. The UFOs were glowing extremely bright and slowly pulsating in brightness. We watched for about 20 minutes as both would randomly go dark and reappear and pulsate. Decided to give up and drive home after both went dark and were no longer visible. As we got to my house atop a big hill we looked out in the distance towards the beach and could see 2 extremely large mother ships. It couldn’t have been anything else because they had very bright white lights on the side of them in a row. One had 5 white lights and a little green one on the end just below the far right white light. The spot where we saw the UFOs was just over the hill in the Cleveland national forest area just east of Rancho Santa Margarita, California. Can pinpoint on map if needed to.
UFO over Eyrewell Forest, New Zealand on 20th June 2014
UFO over Eyrewell Forest, New Zealand on 20th June 2014
Witness said: Hi, can you UFO enthusiasts please take a look at this please. I am from the UK travelling around NZ staying on a rural property in Eyrewell Forest, Waimakariri. At around 16:45 today my hostess spotted this object in the sky, at first i thought it was just the first star of tonights sky but it was way too early. After about five minutes i decided to grab my camera from the house to get a video and photos. When i zoomed in on the object it looked different, a vertical poll in the sky omitting a bright light from the center, but to the naked eye could have passed for a star but it was moving (as in much faster than a star would of course). As you can hear in the video i stepped to the side to get a shot through the trees, this was simply to (hopefully) make it easy for debunkers to see the video is genuine. Is there a explanation? was the picture i got the result of some king of light distortion? A typical glitch of a cheap camera? The model of camera is ‘CANON digital IXUS 70′ it has 7.1 mega pixels, an on the projection shell of the lens it has 5.8-17.4mm 1:2.8- 4.9, just in case it makes a difference. I have a couple of pics and 3 more videos. Let me know what you think, thanks.
On March 30, 2000, the witnesses were travelling along the Klondike Highway from Whitehorse to the Village of Pelly Crossing, Yukon. The sky was clear with a glow of predawn blue. They were nearing the end of Little Fox Lake and came around a sharp right-hand bend near the base of a mountain. Upon coming out from the bend they could not believe their eyes. The witnesses saw a 30 to 40ft diameter saucer, hovering about 200 ft off the ground. It was described as a classic disc shape with a dome on top. The dome had two curved windows from which a blue light was shining. The car headlights dimmed and their tape deck stopped playing. Their watches stopped functioning:
UFO makes woman leery of night travel
by Stephanie Waddell
For Leah Isaac, a strange encounter with the third kind on March 30 made a believer out of the former skeptic. The episode, meanwhile, is attracting the interest of the American media.
“I can’t even travel at night anymore,” the Pelly Crossing resident told the Star in Whitehorse this morning.
Shortly after 5 a.m. on the day in question, Isaac was travelling to Pelly from Whitehorse along the North Klondike Highway with a friend when they came around a corner at Little Fox Lake to a sight neither had seen before.
About 15 to 22 metres (50 to 75 feet) away was a disc-shaped aircraft hovering about 60 metres (200 ft.) off the ground.
“It was silver and transparent,” she noted. “It was like a mirror. It was almost like you could see right through the craft.
“It’s so hard to explain because you never see that kind of material. It’s almost like you can see right through it.”
Inside the craft appeared a blue, turquoise colour, but she did not see a pilot nor anyone in the craft which she noted was “so advanced.
“I was really scared, but I was really shocked when I’ve seen it,” Isaac said. “We were both shaking.”
Isaac’s analog watch stopped, while another friend’s digital watch went into chrono mode, the truck’s tape deck stopped and the lights on her vehicle dimmed.
“Everything went dead,” she said.
Isaac reported the craft seemed to be somewhat confused at their presence. After about five seconds, it shot in front of their vehicle and stopped instantly on the left side of the road.
Isaac reported that she had never seen anything move so fast, and it made no noise.
“I think if it wanted to hurt us, it probably would’ve,” she said.
As Isaac kept driving through the experience, her eyes were peeled on the site, while her friends told her to “floor it.”
They took off after the craft disappeared and didn’t look back for fear that it would follow them. It was about five minutes before the watches began working again and 10 minutes before the tape player resumed working.
“I was driving really fast, as fast as I ever drove, and then when we stopped somewhere, we were just shaking.”
When they got to Pelly, they began laughing about the event and their reactions to it.
“I didn’t even watch where I was driving,” she said. “It’s just funny now that you think about it.”
Although Isaac and her friend had initially agreed not to tell anyone, before they got into Pelly, they changed their minds.
When Isaac arrived at her mother’s house in Pelly, she immediately drew a picture of the craft, wrote about it and began telling her mother the story.
“She was really excited, too.”
Isaac also contacted other friends and family that day to tell them about her experience. While some say she “has made up a good story,” others believe her. There have been numerous sightings around Fox Lake over the years.
“It’s reality. I’m just telling people what I’d seen.”
In the three weeks since the experience, she has spoken with the media, including a Los Angeles radio station, in hopes that others will come out with their own stories.
Although she’s still scared to drive alone at night, it has tweaked her curiosity and changed the way she views things.
“I think people should be aware of what’s going on in the Yukon,” she said. “There’s more sightings now than ever.”
Before the experience, she was skeptical of other life in the universe, but now she is curious to know what’s out there and has considered going back to the site early in the morning to see if she can find out more. She’s curious as to why the ship was lingering near telephone poles.
“Our universe is so big, there must be something out there,” she said.know what’s out there and has considered going back to the site early in the morning to see if she can find out more. She’s curious as to why the ship was lingering near telephone poles.
“Our universe is so big, there must be something out there,” she said. – Whitehorse Star (Yukon, Canada), April 20, 2000
There have been many close encounters with UFOs in the Yukon but it is not often that we get a report like this so soon after it occurs. The witnesses were interviewed about 15 hours after their experience. They were still in a state of shock, coherent, and sincere. For those who doubt accounts like this, I only wish they could hear the witnesses first hand. Their emotional state and what they had to say has left a deep impression on me. Many thanks to FOX4 for notifying us of this sighting, conducting the initial interview and for obtaining the witness drawing. Since this article has been published one of the witnesses has informed us that she does not mind having her identity disclosed. “I know what I saw” Leah Isaac states, “and I was a skeptic before!”
The Account:
Leah Isaac, a friend of hers, and a young boy (who was asleep) were travelling northbound along the Klondike Highway from Whitehorse to the Village of Pelly Crossing, Yukon. The sky was clear with a glow of predawn blue. They were nearing the end of Little Fox Lake and came around a sharp right-hand bend near the base of a mountain. Upon coming out from the bend they could not believe their eyes! To the right and about 300 ft (90 meters) away was a 30 to 40ft (9 to12 meters) diameter saucer, hovering about 200 ft (60 meters) off the ground! They observed it to be stationary for 4 to 5 seconds as they were travelling along the highway and then it shot across horizontally in front of their vehicle at an “incredible speed” and stopped instantly on the left side of the road. “Nothing can move that fast”, “in the blink of an eye” the witnesses described. It remained motionless for only another split second and shot off even faster in a different direction (basically performing a 90-degree turn and shooting off behind them). One witness thought it went right into the side of a mountain while the other thought it followed the mountainous skyline. “Come on, floor it, floor it!” shouted the friend to Leah. They continued northbound fleeing from the location and eventually pulled over about 20 minutes later. They were both visibly shaking. “We were more scared than excited, I think if it wasn’t so close it would not have been so frightening”, “It’s like we caught it by surprise when we came around the corner”, “it was so advanced”, “I’ll never be the same” were some of the comments by the witnesses.
The witnesses got a good look at the saucer. It was a classic disc shape with a dome on top. The dome had two curved windows or lights from which a beautiful ocean blue or aqua colored light was shining. The surface of the craft was difficult to describe. Some of the words the witnesses used were “mirror, silver, translucent, shiny, glassy, reflecting the color of the sky”. It was as though the UFO was trying to “camouflage against the background sky color”. “Had it been pitch black out I don’t think we would have seen the body of the craft, just the windows or lights” Leah remarked.
As the UFO streaked in front of their vehicle, the car headlights dimmed and their tape deck stopped playing. They both wanted to check the time of their sighting. However, Leah’s battery-operated analog watch stopped (at 5:00am) and the man’s digital watch went blank, and then got stuck in “chrono mode” and wouldn’t reset. A few miles down the road Leah tapped the face of her watch and it started working again. The man fiddled around pushing buttons on his digital watch and it started working as well, the time indicated was 5:12 am. They checked the tape deck and by all indications, John Fogerty should have been playing away. The tape hadn’t run out, the volume was on, and the lights on the cassette window indicated that the power was on. Other than the initial power drain, no additional problems were noted with the truck. The man figured that they managed to get the tape deck and watches functioning properly after they traveled a “couple of miles” past the UFO sighting location. The woman figured that about 5 minutes had elapsed when they managed to get their watches functioning and about 10 minutes until the tape deck started to work. Although the witnesses were travelling in a vehicle, no noise was heard emanating from the UFO.
Updated Information:
Leah Isaac was interviewed in Whitehorse and was asked to use reference objects (buildings around her) to help provide estimates of the closest approach and size of the UFO. These distances were measured and the following results were determined: At their closest approach the UFO was about 27 metres (90 feet) away and about 10 metres (34 feet) in diameter. The geometry gives a viewing angle of about 22 degrees of an arc.
Further investigation into this case is described in the IUR Journal (International UFO Reporter) Summer 2000 issue Vol. 25. No. 2. by Mark Rodeghier* and Martin Jasek.
*Mark Rodeghier is the scientific director of the Center for UFO Studies in Chicago. He has dedicated his UFO studies to cases where there had been interference with the vehicle’s electronics, such as this one that occurred at Little Fox Lake. To date he has catalogued some 500 such cases. He has the following to add regarding this case:
“I am definitely interested in more information on this report, as much as possible, both because it is a recent case and because very few vehicle interference reports have been studied in depth before. This is because they have been so infrequent–only somewhat over 500 have occurred worldwide since 1947–so any one investigator may only see one or two reports in a lifetime of UFO investigations. I have personally investigated only one report, although I have spoken with the witnesses in about a dozen other cases.
I can tell you that this case fits a pattern I first discerned about 20 years ago. That is, in most vehicle interference reports, the UFO is disk-shaped, about 30 feet in size, and comes quite close to the witness. It often moves in front of the vehicle, as it did at Little Fox Lake. Most cases also occur in isolated locations. The color blue is quiet common. It’s amazing to me to see this pattern repeating here in the year 2000.”
Mark Rodeghier and Martin Jasek continue to work on this case. Work includes obtaining the magnetic signature of the vehicle to assess if it had been magnetized. – Martin Jasek – ufobc.com
New footage has emerged showing what looks like a bipedal creature standing at the side of a road.
The video was recorded near Sundance in Utah and begins after a couple had turned their car around to take a closer look at something that they’d spotted at the roadside.
As the car headlights illuminate the trees at the side of the road a bipedal creature can be briefly seen standing between the trunks. It’s difficult to make out much detail in the low light but it certainly appears as though there is something there.
The couple backed their car up and drove past again but by this time the creature had disappeared. The footage has been gaining in interest since first appearing online three days ago but to date there has been no explanation for what it is that the couple had witnessed.
The mummified remains of an apparent strange humanoid creature has been found in Northern Germany near where the 3600 year old Nebra Sky Disk was found in 2001. The mummified remains have been described by the researchers as alien in appearance. Shown to have human and non-human characteristics. They observe that the creature would have stood between 3-3.5 feet tall. No outward sign of genitalia were found. The origin and abnormalities found in the remains has triggered intense investigation by German researchers.
The Nebra Sky Disk is a blue green bronze disk inlaid with gold symbols. It is the oldest accurate depiction of the night sky ever found. The first representation of the Universe in human history. The markings are generally recognized as the Sun and stars; including a cluster interpreted as the Pleiades. Two golden arcs along the sides, mark the angle between the solstices. A final addition was another arc at the bottom surrounded with multiple strokes interpreted as a Sun ship with numerous oars. Read more at Paranormics
The passenger pigeon is an odd case of extinction – it died out not centuries ago, but in 1914, within the lifetime of some people living today. Its extinction shocked the world, going from a population of billions to being hunted into extinction in a relatively short time. Once Martha, the last surviving passenger pigeon bid farewell at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, the world assumed they were gone for good, but perhaps not: The Great Passsenger Pigeon Comeback, the flagship project of genetics group Revive & Restore, aims to see to it that passenger pigeons fly among us once more.
To reach their goal, they intend to employ some genetic wizardry. “The goal of The Great Passenger Pigeon Comeback is to bring the passenger pigeon all the way back using the genome of the band-tailed pigeon and state-of-the-art genomic technology,” they wrote on their website. “The genomes of the two birds will be compared in close detail, to determine which differences are most crucial. The data and analysis will begin with the process of converting viable band-tailed DNA into viable passenger pigeon DNA.”
As complicated as that sounds, Revive & Restore says that the passenger pigeon “offers relative technical practicality for the scientific work of de-extinction.” The project also won’t be easy, likely costing millions of dollars and taking at least a decade to raise a sustainable population. Though some are bound to have ethical quandaries with the idea of de-extinction, others view it as a sort of retribution for the damage mankind has dealt to the planet.
“This was a real wake-up call for the public and frankly for scientists, too,” said Helen James, curator of birds at the Smithsonian’s Natural Museum of History. “Ornithologists studied birds and they didn’t really think of species becoming extinct.”
Presently, Revive & Restore is initiating research designs for the isolation and culturing of band-tailed pigeon primordial germ cells. This is expected to be the project’s greatest hurdle. – Daily Digest News
Mom charged with fatally poisoning son for posts on mommy blog
A young mother who documented her 5-year-old son’s persistent illness on social media was arrested Tuesday, accused of fatally poisoning him with sodium, WABC-TV reported.
Investigators said Lacey Spears was desperate for attention and used her son as a tool to make that happen by publicly documenting his condition.
Spears brought her son to Nyack Hospital in Rockland County on Jan. 17, reporting he was having seizures. Two days later, with no medical explanation, Garnett-Paul’s sodium levels rose to an extremely dangerous level.
Spears was sharing her son’s hospital room, and prosecutors said the mother administered sodium through the boy’s stomach tube. The boy was then transferred to the Westchester Medical Center, where he died.
“During the afternoon, that child goes from moderate to severe cerebral dysfunction,” prosecutor Doreen Lloyd said in court. “And as that is going on, this child’s sodium level is going up. It coincides with the actions of this defendant.”
The Westchester County district attorney says doctors there suspected Spears was harming her son and called New York state children’s services, which launched an investigation.
Spears, who pleaded not guilty, documented her son’s various health problems using a public blog.

Two local youngsters, Denilson and Rafael were playing in the Sebastian’s Chapel Square when they were surprised to see bright lights moving overhead heading towards a field close to the square. The lights seemed to be rotating around an ellipse form, and were red and blue in color; they suddenly descended and disappeared from sight. Feeling somewhat frightened the two friends ran to a nearby house where they told their two other friends, Carlos and Cristiano. The boys knew that it hadn’t been an airplane since there wasn’t any noise and the lights seemed to have performed a vertical descent into the field. The now four witnesses approached the field and could now see the lights on the grounds alternating colors from red to blue. Three of the boys were afraid to approach the field by Cristiano drove his scooter closer and illuminated the area with its headlights, as he did this, Carlos, Denilson and Rafael followed closely behind him. The boys could now see that the lights were suspended in mid-air in a diagonal position and under the lights they could see three or more “crouching” creatures on the field. The creatures were crouching in a horseshoe or U-formation and appear to be “communicating” with each other. The boys were extremely frightened, since they had never seen anything like that before. The boys were convinced that the creatures were not animals, since their behavior was totally different from that of typical farm animals that abounded in the area. The boys explained that the creatures were well-defined but when they changed their viewing angle they were able to see four and up to five creatures, giving some the creatures the appearance of being “invisible” and only becoming visible when the struck by the light rain that was falling at the time. When Cristiano shone his scooter headlight directly on the creatures they disappeared. They could only see the creatures when it was dark. In the darkness they still see the contours of their bodies. The boys estimated the creatures to have been about 1.20 meters in height, with large black oval-shaped eyes, lacking noses or ears, they had a round mouth and their color was dark gray. They hands with fingers but were unable to count how many fingers on each hand. All four youths gave identical description of the creatures. They observed the creatures for approximately forty minutes and during the time the boys noticed that the creatures appeared to be communicating among themselves. Suddenly they saw a red “laser point” on Carlos’s shirt, Rafael pointed it out to Carlos who became afraid, and he immediately lifted his arms in a way to demonstrate that he was no threat to them and that he was unarmed. At this point the witnesses could see a red beam of light that appeared to be emanating from a cylindrical shaped object on the field, there also appeared to smoke coming from the tip of the object. Terrified the four witnesses began leaving the area slowly concerned for their safety. The youths estimated that they had stood about 10 meters from the creatures. They arrived home afraid and nervous. Three days later the witnesses visited the site and found that the brush in the area had turned brown in color.

When I was nine years old , in the summer of 1989, I believe I lived in a small trailer park in Colorado Springs, Colorado with my mother. My mother was dating a man who lived down the street from us. One evening when we were at her boyfriend’s trailer, they had an argument that lasted late into the night, and at around 3am my mother awoke me so that her and I could walk home to our own trailer. Our place was directly down the street from my mother’s boyfriend’s place. Our trailer park had a few street lights, but not many, and I remember it was extremely dark out. I held my mother’s hand, and my eye focus was on my feet and the street before me. When we were about four trailers away from our own trailer, the street lit up all around me and my mother. We stopped and looked up, and directly above us was a large, round craft. I have no recollection of seeing it move up to us, it was just there. Because I was a child at the time, and had no sense of measurement, it’s hard for me to now say exactly how far above us the craft was, but I’m going to guess it hovered around 30 feet above us. It was close enough that it literally took up the whole sky; I couldn’t see anything beyond it. It didn’t move, it remained stationary above my mother and myself, and we stood motionless watching it in return–I have no idea for how long.
It was perfectly circular, and in the center were three, round white lights positioned in the shape of a triangle. The craft itself was a lighter gray color. There were rows of square, orange and green lights that curved with the round shape of the craft. I don’t remember exactly how many of the orange and green lights there were, or their exact configuration. It was like six or seven green lights in a row on one side, then a few orange lights in a row on another spot. I saw a lot of (I guess) tubing and mechanical looking stuff–I’m not sure how else to describe it. I’ve drawn a rough picture of the craft, but because I don’t understand all of the mechanics I was looking at, it’s a very basic interpretation of what I saw. There’s no way I’d be able to recreate it exactly; that would almost be like trying to draw a circuit board, or an engine. As far as my feelings and reactions to the craft; I first want to say that I don’t recall ever feeling any fear. It was more along the lines of fascination and curiosity. I never felt threatened at any time. The first thing I actually remember thinking and acknowledging was that the craft barely made a sound. It was just a slight humming, and the wind didn’t stir or anything. The air was all calm around me. That was something that seemed abnormal to me, as though seeing this thing in the first place wasn’t abnormal enough. It seems like the next thought process I remember was the actual realization of what I was looking at. I vaguely remember thinking something along the lines of, “They really are real”, and somewhere deep down, it’s almost like I remember feeling a form of happiness.
Almost like a familiar happiness; something I had felt before, or related to a feeling I had felt before. My memory of the craft itself pretty much ends about this time, so the memory of those last feelings are a bit muddy. Next thing I knew, me and my mother were walking up the porch steps to our trailer. My recollection comes back as I’m taking the first couple steps up the porch. I remember looking at the steps, my sight turned a bit to watch my mother’s feet go up the steps, then I looked at my hand which was being held in my mother’s hand still. I remember at that point looking up at my mother’s face; she looked straight ahead, and continued to walk to our front door. I remember thinking, “Why isn’t she saying anything? Does she know what just happened?” We get to the door and she puts the key in the lock, and it was at that point, before she turned the knob to open the door, that she looked down at me and asked if we just saw what she thought we saw. I just remember shaking my head, yes. She said that we shouldn’t tell anyone about it, and not to talk about it ever. We both went straight to bed, and I don’t believe either of us looked at a clock. Because of this last fact, I can’t say whether or not we lost any time, or if I simply lost my memory of the craft leaving and the walk home.
The next day it ended up being all over the local news and radio that somewhere around 200 people (I believe more than that, actually) had been calling in UFO sightings all throughout the night, many of whom lived in our general area of the city. NOTE: The above image is a rendering.
OK…you say that you have psychic abilities. Your friends and associates snicker behind your back and call you crazy when you tell them about your gift. Maybe you witnessed a UFO or some other unexplained event and you need to let others know of your encounter…though you know that you’ll be subjected to ridicule. But never fear….there may be a rhetorical solution to your telepathic despair. The science of psychology may have finally figured out how to increase the probability of persuading others of supernatural events.
I recently read a new Journal of Language and Social Psychology study authored by University of East London researcher Anna Stone. You can download the free PDF from the website. The study suggests that people are more likely to believe what you’re saying is actually attributable to the paranormal if you don’t sound like an ignorant simpleton at the beginning of the tale. “The declaration of initial scepticism suggests that the narrator behaves rationally in basing his or her beliefs on empirical evidence and so counters potential accusations of foolishness and gullibility or being swayed by too little evidence,” Stone explains in the paper. “The presentation of the evidence that converted the narrator within the account itself offers the audience an invitation to go on the same journey from scepticism to belief along with the narrator.”
In other words, starting a narrative with an admission of your total belief in the supernatural doesn’t increase credibility.
Stone designed a simple experiment to prove what had previously only been a vague qualitative assertion. Subjects read a description of either a precognitive dream (the narrator predicted and prevented a car accident) or a telepathic experience (the narrator thought of an ‘old friend Sally’ and then learned about her hospitalization 30 minutes later) in three different conditions. In one, the narrator claimed to be skeptical of the paranormal before describing the event; in the second, the narrator said he or she didn’t have any interest at all; and in the third, the narrator admitted to being a vehement prior believer. Then, the subjects were asked a series of questions about whether they thought the event described really was paranormal, just a coincidence, or the product of narrator gullibility.
To gauge pre-existing beliefs about the paranormal, subjects also took the standard Australian Sheep Goat Scale (sheep are believers, goats are doubters). The undergraduate subject group, on average, was skeptical (the final results were statistically adjusted to incorporate this finding).
The skeptical condition significantly increased the likelihood that subjects would characterize the event as causally paranormal, even though the majority of the subjects rightly attributed it to coincidence.
So…according to this study, in order to increase your audience’s positive regard for you psychic ability or strange encounter, it’s best to begin the story stating that your a skeptic.
They were said to be tall over 6ft and oddly always exactly the same height. They were thin with very light skin, large odd blue eyes and either bald or wearing what looked to be wigs, but exactly the same wig and color on each man. They seemed to travel in pairs and wore sun glasses that covered the fact they did not seem to have eyelashes or eye brows.
I could not find any photos of the above mentioned until the day I found the You Tube of the incident that took place in a hotel lobby where two Men in Black individuals were caught on camera while questioning the people in the hotel lobby about someone in the hotel area who had recently reported a UFO sighing.
As I watched the video (I will send my sister the video for you to view on her blog) I realized at once who these men were and why they looked as they do.
I also realized and believe that along with my sister and a room full of people who worked in or had an extreme interest in science may have had contact years ago in a Yahoo chat room with one of these creatures.
In short I believe that the Men in Black are a certain type of alien visitor who are sent out after one of their crafts are accidentally seen or made contact with humans.
Surely there are many types of aliens that visit this planet that range from non-threatening to those who use us as experiments or harvest us for material they may need right through to heartless killers who simply do what they want with the humans they encounter.
The Men in Black I think are a specific type of alien who attempt to communicate with those who report seeing their crafts or catch them in their activities here on earth. I have no idea why they send out these duplicate looking robotic type beings to make these follow up calls but apparently that is exactly what they are doing.
Years ago an entire chat room full of people, who when web cam viewing first became available in chat rooms, all became familiar in this one Yahoo science based chat room with a man who called himself Sirius thinker or Sirius visitor.
He was the most unusual man we had ever seen. He was extremely thin with milk colored skin with huge eyes. I do not remember if they were brown or blue. He was completely hairless and extremely strange on all levels. He was extremely well educated in what seemed to be every level of science and seemed more like a wax robot then a man. His voice was not male or female but somewhere in between and very disturbing. He would creep out everyone who spent time talking to him and would avoid or refuse to answer questions about his appearance or private life.
This odd person made one last visit to this chat room very late one night where he simply stated he was returning to from where he came from as he finished his required time here and turned off his cam and that was that he was gone.
There were a few smart people who encountered this man in that chat room who somehow had a location on him that was narrowed down to a small town in Florida. A group of men decided this man was so unusual that they decided to join together and take a trip to visit this man as his manner, looks and knowledge was so odd they really felt he needed to be investigated. When they arrived at his last location they found a large plot of land in the middle of nowhere and not one sign of this man was anywhere to be found.
Once I viewed the hotel lobby video of the recent case of a visit from The Men in Black I knew exactly what our chat room friend had been and also believed that the ones caught on this video were two more just like him.
I think they are aliens who for reasons we may never understand are sent after the fact to areas where certain crafts and alien activity was seen and reported for reasons we do not understand. I do not think they harm people but of course we cannot be sure of anything as frankly we do not know who or what these being are or why they are here and even more confusing why they only seem to be seen after particular events are reported or certain Ufology information is involved.I do know that after viewing the video of the hotel incident and listening to those who did deal with the two Men in Black that day that we all need to pay attention to strange men dressed in Black who are twin like in appearance and to keep a great deal of distance between them and us at all times.
De NASA heeft groen licht gegeven aan een groep burgerwetenschappers om een meer dan 35 jaar oude ruimtesonde weer tot leven te wekken. De sonde ISEE-3 werd in 1985 herdoopt tot de International Cometary Explorer (ICE) en zal zich in augustus van dit jaar weer in de buurt van de aarde bevinden.
Men zal dan proberen het radiocontact met het ruimteschip te herstellen. Als dit lukt, hoopt men de satelliet op 1,5 miljoen kilometer van de aarde te positioneren om daar de originele missie te hervatten. Deze missie bestond uit het meten van de interactie tussen de zonnewind en het aardmagnetische veld. In 1985 en 1986 werd de missie van de satelliet plots gewijzigd. De satelliet bezocht toen twee kometen waaronder de komeet Halley.

Blik op de ruimte: Unieke foto's Mercuriusovergang
Blik op de ruimte: Unieke foto's Mercuriusovergang
Het Amerikaanse Marswagentje Curiosity heeft begin juni foto's gemaakt van een Mercuriusovergang. Tijdens een overgang beweegt een planeet voor de zon door, gezien vanaf een bepaalde locatie.
Het is de eerste maal dat dit waargenomen werd van op het Marsoppervlak. Aangezien Mars zich heel wat verder van de zon bevindt dan de aarde, was de planeet minder dan 1 pixel groot op de opnames maar toch zichtbaar.
Overgangen voor de zon zijn in de geschiedenis steeds zeer belangrijk geweest. Zo werden Venusovergangen bijvoorbeeld gebruikt om de onderlinge afstanden in ons zonnestelsel te bepalen. Met Mercuriusovergangen probeerden geleerden de diameter van de zon te bepalen.

Blik op de ruimte: Hubble op jacht
Omdat de tijd begint te dringen voor de ruimtesonde New Horizons, zullen sterrenkundigen de Hubble ruimtetelescoop (HST) gebruiken om op zoek te gaan naar ijsdwergen buiten de baan van Neptunus.
New Horizons zal immers volgend jaar langs Pluto vliegen. Men heeft dus dringend voorstellen voor objecten nodig die als tweede doelwit voor de sonde kunnen dienen. De HST zal eerst een testprogramma uitvoeren om na te gaan of de telescoop eigenlijk wel gebruikt kan worden om dergelijke kleine objecten op te sporen.
Als de test succesvol is, dan zal een uitgebreid zoekprogramma opgezet worden
