Met de regelmaat van de klok worden nieuwe planeten en sterren ontdekt, maar wat astronomen van de universiteit van New South Wales recent aantroffen, was nog ongezien. Gliese 832c is een super-Aarde die amper 16 lichtjaren van ons verwijderd is - een steenworp in kosmische termen.

Bid to talk to aliens could doom us all: How the quest to find ET could be 'insanely risky'
By Christopher Hart

A recent newspaper story about the discovery of a huge Earth-like planet 560 light-years away was headlined: ‘New planet brings hope of life in space.’

A few years ago, that sort of claim would just have been laughed off. But this has changed in recent times: indeed, only a few days ago, a leading astronomer made a quite staggering claim.

We liked him but he went home: What if real aliens are not as cuddly as ET?

‘It is not hyperbolic to suggest that scientists could very well discover extra-terrestrial intelligence within two  decades’ time or less.’ 

And this was no deluded alien bug-hunter.

This was Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at the SETI Institute in California, addressing the U.S. Congress. 

SETI stands for the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence. It was co-founded by astronomer and author Carl Sagan, and two Nobel prize-winners have worked there.

Dr Shostak was able to make such a prediction thanks to the immense power of the dazzling new weapons in SETI’s armoury, such as the Hubble Space Telescope and the Kepler Space Observatory. 

Nasa’s Kepler telescope has discovered 962 exoplanets (planets outside our solar system, which don’t necessarily resemble Earth) in 72 star systems.

They include Kepler-10c, 17 times the weight of Earth, which made those headlines this month.

The Kepler telescope has a further 2,900 possible detections, as yet unconfirmed. And it’s only been operating since 2009.

This implies there is an astounding number of Earth-type planets (with properties  scientists deem necessary for life, such as proximity to an energy source) out there. 

Kepler’s discoveries mean there may be 40 billion other ‘Earths’ in our galaxy alone. Given such numbers, the probability of alien life has increased enormously.

Much extra-terrestrial life might not seem that exciting. For vast aeons of Earth prehistory, ‘life’ meant bacteria, amoeba and algae. So it would  probably be with most of those exoplanets.

What if they mean us ill like Mysteron agent Captain Black? Captain Scarlet's nemesis was taken over after Spectrum attacked the Mysteron settlement on Mars by mistake

But just supposing one or two of them had given rise to more complex life forms, capable of intelligence, of innovation. With 40 billion planets out there, the odds are that this will have happened.

Hence the chosen name of SETI. They are not searching just for alien life, but for alien intelligence — life forms that could communicate with us.

SETI not only looks for planets that could be Earthlike and habitable, it listens out for things like radio waves, produced only by advanced technological civilisations. Like ours. 

Aye, there’s the rub. It’s one thing to listen out for signals from the cosmos that might tell us They’re Out There.

But we are also sending out radio signals of our own, and have been for the past 100 years. One of the first public radio broadcasts was from the Metropolitan Opera House in 1910: Cavalleria Rusticana.

Such broadcasts weren’t necessarily received only by the handful who owned a wireless set. They also started to travel outwards from the Earth, like ripples from a stone thrown into a pond — but moving at the speed of light.
They are now more than 100 light years away — one light year is approximately 5,878,499,810,000 miles — and SETI reckons the nearest inhabited planet is just 12 light years away.

And they will go on travelling through the vast reaches of space for ever.

The BBC’s first broadcast was in 1922, and we have been inadvertently shouting out at the cosmos since, advertising our presence.

Radio and television broadcasts, mobile phone calls, radar systems, their chatter and babble streaming away at the speed of light, and all saying one simple thing to any listeners with the technology to hear: HELLO!

Deep Space: It looks pretty but who knows what horrors lay in wait for us in the cosmos

With blithe and sunny optimism, many scientists from projects like SETI seem to believe any ETs out there who pick up our signals and come to visit will be something like the cuddly chap in the Steven Spielberg film.

The optimists have even begun another programme called Active SETI, or METI — Messaging to Extra-terrestrial Intelligences.

This means not just listening, but deliberately shouting out at top volume, explaining who we are and where in the galaxy we live.

Not all scientists are sanguine about this, however. One has even called it ‘insanely risky, given the dearth of information we have about the nature of Extra-terrestrial Intelligence’.

John Billingham, a senior figure at SETI and Nasa, even called for a global moratorium on such programmes because of the potential risk to humanity’s future.

Is this paranoia? Hardly, if you remember the lessons of our history.

For when an advanced people meet a less technologically sophisticated people, the results for the latter are generally catastrophic.

Look at the American Indians, or even worse, the Tasmanian aborigines, who were obliterated after the arrival of European settlers in the early 1800s.

The worst-case scenario of an alien attack on Earth is a staple of science fiction from H.G. Wells’s War Of The Worlds to Tom Cruise’s latest blockbuster, Edge Of Tomorrow.

We have no idea how super-intelligent aliens might regard us, but what if they see us as we do cows: a useful source of protein?

Or as mosquitoes: pests infesting a lovely and habitable planet, and best got rid of?

Arthur C. Clarke, the author of 2001: A Space Odyssey, predicted in 1974 that in 30 years' time we would sit at home on personal computers, doing our shopping

These might sound fanciful, but science fiction writers spend their lives engaged in imagining the future, and often turn out to be startlingly prescient.

The word ‘cyberspace’ was coined by sci-fi writers.

And Arthur C. Clarke, the author of 2001: A Space Odyssey, predicted in 1974 that in 30 years’ time we would sit at home on personal computers, doing our shopping and buying our theatre tickets.

Even more frightening than the thought of space invaders is the risk of importing a devastating computer virus in an incoming signal from some advanced civilisation.

A leading Serbian astro-physicist, Professor Milan Cirkovic, has described how such viruses could ‘download’ themselves to Earth, and then damage our computer networks.

It is, he said: ‘A very frightening thought.’ So perhaps we should be keeping very, very quiet — instead of reaching out to seek for alien civilisations.

And if super-intelligent aliens don’t get us, another extra-terrestrial will — a giant asteroid smashing into the Earth.

‘The chances of this happening,’ says Bill McGuire, professor of geophysical and climate hazards at University College, London, ‘are 100 per cent.’

s just a question of when.

UFO theory covers sightings from the 1850s to 1920s

ADVERTISEMENT

Strange objects in the sky have baffled humanity since the dawn of time. In the past, unusual lights in the sky were regarded as chariots of fire, angels, will o’ the wisps, demonic processions, dragons, witches riding to their Sabbath rituals, dancing fairies, spirits and many other types of threatening supernatural or religious visitations. 

From the 1850s to the 1920s strange lights or things in the sky were regarded as ‘phantom airships’, then there were ‘mystery aircraft’ followed by ‘foo fighters’ in the Second World War, then ‘ghost rockets’ before we got to ‘flying saucers’ in 1947. 

Sightings were of things of a fantastic, supernatural or religious nature, and then with the phantom airship sightings, they were seen as secular, man-made, mechanical constructions.

These frames of reference are conditioned by many different social, political and cultural factors. For example, the phantom airships seen in the USA in 1896-7, and worldwide during the early years of the twentieth century can be compared with the airships described in the fiction of the period. The fiction and sightings also reflected the growing interest in all things aeronautical. The world became increasingly airminded, a concept which historian Scott Palmer describes as a:

• ‘...particular set of cultural traditions, symbols, and markers that, combined with existing political culture and social institutions, constitute a given nation's response to the airplane.’

The phantom airships and balloons, and mystery fliers represented a part of this airminded obsession, but not far away were new frontiers to conquer. The Space Age would soon dawn and in anticipation pulp science fiction novels, magazines and film serials gripped our imaginations.

These new horizons also represented new real and imagined threats to humanity. The worst case scenario was played out in the War of the Worlds radio broadcast, masterminded by Orson Welles’ Mercury Theatre of the Air. The programme mixed fiction with alleged on-the-spot factual reports of an alien invasion. The accepted view is that it caused a mass panic when it was broadcast on Halloween’s Eve, 30 October 1938. 

More sober analysis indicates that it mainly caused its 1.2 million listeners mild fear and/or excitement. Nonetheless the overall reaction to the broadcast was a media sensation that led the shocked and surprised Orson Welles to apologise before news reel cameras the following day. 

Strange things in the sky now morphed into foo fighters and ghost rockets as we passed through the horrors of the Second World War and entered the Space Age. The big breakthrough came with Kenneth Arnold’s sighting of ‘flying saucers’ in June 1947. No one knew if they were the product of Cold War psychosis, secret US or USSR aircraft or invaders from outer space. As the mystery deepened the United States Air Force dubbed them Unidentified Flying Objects, which became the perfect umbrella term for anything unusual seen in the sky.

Hollywood movies of the 1950s quickly cashed-in on the craze for flying saucers, and in process created some of the most stupid, inspiring, spectacular and thoughtful films of all time. It became a ufominded age that partied with the dominant Space Age ethos.

UFOs and flying saucers simply became shorthand for alien visitors, yet even ufologists accept that the majority are misidentifications of anything from kites, clouds and satellites to the Moon and Venus. The contactees of the 1950s and the abductees of the 1960s onwards made physical and mental contact with the occupants of these craft. Their testimony certainly ruled out misidentifications of Venus, but the sceptics filled this void with speculation about False Memory Syndromes and Sleep Paralysis.

The disclosure movement tries to get confirmation that our governments know all about these alien visitations, and the Roswell and Rendlesham incidents taunt us with the possibility that they are real craft. The elusive nature of this evidence has led some ufologists to explore the possibility that UFOs come from other dimensions or are time travellers, others regard them as enigmatic intelligences that are intimately linked with humanity and are engaged in manipulating our thoughts and evolution.

Hardline sceptics try to explain all UFO sightings as caused by ‘mundane’ non-exotic phenomena, and then there are the psychosociologists who aren’t particularly bothered if UFOs are physically real or not, it is enough that our ufo minded culture causes real psychological and sociological responses.

Like UFOs themselves, the theories surrounding them reflect our perception of the world and our place in it.

Scientists Speechless At What They Find Beneath Egypt! One of the Most Controversial Mysteries Ever–Solved! (On-Site Video Footage and Photos)

(Before It's News)

For many generations, it has been questioned and debated. Many long hours and much time has been spent pouring over the evidence, yet with no clear answers and no hard proof.

However, today, more evidence keeps piling up that proves the ancients did have technology far beyond what we can even begin to imagine.

Brien Foerester takes you down dark tunnels, beneath pyramids, and inside places you have only seen in your imagination. 

More Amazing Evidence of Ancient Technology!

But now he goes even further and takes you beneath Egypt, where mysterious 100 ton stone boxes were discovered.  Some people believe they were used for burial purposes, but Brien clearly shows us how they were used for ancient ‘high’ technology.

Is it possible that the technology of the ancients was so advanced, it goes above and beyond ours today?

The Bible tells us in Ecclesiastes 1:9,  “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.”

Where we believe we have gone forward and advanced throughout history, is it possible we are actually far behind, and that someone else a long time ago knew all the secrets we have yet to uncover?

I can honestly say yes.  The fallen angels had the knowledge handed down to them by God, and they taught their children, the nephilim, and all of humanity the secrets of technology they had acquired.

Time and again, mankind has been stunned by the ancient megaliths, wondering how they could possibly have been erected by the humans of that time.  But the nephilim and raphaim were extremely intelligent, insanely strong, and quite frightful to look upon.  They were also giants!  This is exactly how it was that ancient megalithic structures were built. 

Ancient technology is indeed a reality, and Brien shows you in the videos I have included below just how it could have happened.

Brien writes:

Inside a tunnel system carved out of the solid limestone bedrock in the desert of Egypt, more than 20 granite boxes made of precision shaped Aswan granite are a true enigma. Said by some to have been the burial places of prized bulls, their real function is far more intriguing. And they are clear examples of Lost Ancient High Technology created before the time of the Dynastic Egyptians.

“Alien” Anything

(Before It's News)

Note: This is another blog that evolved out of a response to an email from another interested party, who shall also remain anonymous unless they choose otherwise.

MH

………………………………………………………………………………………...................................

Hi XXXX,

And thanks for writing, I’m glad to converse with you about this.

I think if we’re going to be a bit scientific about it, the question would be reversed, i.e. where is the evidence that all the stuff about the Grays is true?

For there to be any consideration of so-called “alien abductions”, wouldn’t we agree that we first have to establish the existence of so-called…”aliens”? It’s hardly an established fact, certainly as far as science is concerned. So far as I am aware, outside of the Meier case we have no existing tangible evidence whatsoever of so-called aliens, though I’m sure that many of us accept the likelihood of their existence based on many things.

“Alien” is itself a term that’s a product of the disinformation and entertainment industries that have, in many cases, merged into one. (One blatant example would be OpenMinds.) So let’s get away from the very contaminated term itself and use the word extraterrestrials for our purposes. Now I think it’s pretty easy to come to the conclusion that Billy Meier has been meeting with extraterrestrials, a term I prefer, for a long time (over 72 years). But that’s not the focus of your question.

Let’s definitely agree that there is ample artistic evidence, going back to pre-history, that seems to portray beings and craft that sure appear to match the descriptions and images of UFOs and even of various knds of presumed extraterrestrials, etc. We’re not in disagreement about the high likelihood of extraterrestrial visitors to our planet dating back millennia.

In fact, all one has to do is to start reading Contact 251, and all of the information in the Meier case connected to such topics as the Giza Intelligences, etc. But I still have to refer to that information as speculative, since I don’t have any hard science to back it up and prove it.

And so far, despite all the huffing and puffing in the UFOCI, there isn’t one piece of indisputable evidence that all these people who think they’re being “abducted by aliens” really are. Now it doesn’t mean that some very few people haven’t indeed been taken aboard a UFO and “examined”. If we maintain and apply the same standards about speculative information in the Meier case to so-called abductions we still have to call them speculative too.

Then of course we have already referred to information from the Meier case that paints an even bigger picture regarding the nature, origins, etc., of UFOs, so-called abductions, etc., which indicates that in cases where people really are abducted the absolute majority of them are by secret military groups and not extraterrestrials. Meier and the Plejaren make it clear that there indeed have been an extremely small number of so-called “contact examinations” by non-malevolent extraterrestrials for scientific purposes.

But the virtual epidemic of reported cases are easily explained as sleep paralysis, mass hysteria, hypnosis, self-hypnosis, self-induced fantasies, escapism, etc. If we use logic alone to consider the hypothesis that extraterrestrials are abducting people, we have a number of things to consider concerning the purported reasons for such claims:

1. They want and/or need our genetics: Well sure, an advanced space traveling race which, by necessity, evolution and definition must already have much longer life spans than ours, greater intelligence and are also most probably unified as a people on their planet (far more than we are) needs our genetics? Why, so they can attain…shorter lifespans, degenerative diseases, hereditary physical and mental illnesses and our insane propensity for killing everything and everyone with or without the least provocation? Do they simply miss the good old days when they were primitive, stupid, short-lived, violent and, well…just like us?

2. They need to regain emotions like ours: All the crazy stuff we do is usully accompanied by equally over the top, mindless fear, anger, aggression, etc. What race wouldn’t jump at the chance to be at the whim of unpredictable, uncontrolled, irrational outbursts instead of spending its time traversing the cosmos, studying and experiencing awe at the magnificence and mystery of the universe?

3. They’re dying out and need to create an “alien-human hybrid race”: Right, that sure would be a match made in some sort of heaven…part advanced, peaceful, long-lived, highly intelligent and part knuckle-dragging, barbaric, genocidal maniacs. The sheer excitement of not knowing which part was dominant from moment to moment would make such an experiment irresistible and make going extinct seem like a really good idea.

4. We may as well also include those people who claim to be contactees. Please notice that none of them are being harassed, hounded, threatened, vilified, attacked – like with real guns, knives, etc. – and they all seem to have something else in common. None of them were important enough to be “contacted” and mentored by the president, vice-president, a congressperson, senator, Supreme Court judge, governor, mayor, city clerk, dog catcher, etc. In other words, none of them have demonstrated any significant abilities or accomplishments that would suddenly catapult them to galactic levels of importance and hence to be qualified to speak to, or on behalf of, much more evolved intelligences.

Naturally the question would arise as to what makes Billy Meier so “special” as to qualify for such a thankless job as a real contactee, let alone prophet, etc.? Let that hang for a minute and let’s look at it from the other end.

If Meier was a fraud and hoaxer, as so many uninformed and envious people have claimed, possessing such undeniably masterful, amazing abilities in a multitude of diverse disciplines, wouldn’t he be the most likely candidate to be a contactee? I mean the guy supposedly fabricated…everything - with one hand yet – and did it all without any proven financial, technical or collaborative resources, long before home computers and the internet, while raising a family with three kids, working as a nightwatchman and renovating a farm house that didn’t have electricity or running water, etc., etc. Wow, he could do anything, let’s talk to…him.

It may be hard in this day and age of online armchair experts who think that searching google’s in any way’s equivalent to actually personally gathering, weighing, evaluating and thinking through decades of several varieties of still irreproducible evidence, including reconciling it with Meier’s non-promotional, almost hermetic personal life.

Let’s pause for a moment and wonder how all this stuff got going. Weren’t we just going to talk about…”alien abductions” by those big-eyed Grays? Perhaps we can see now why I say that the Billy Meier UFO contact case is what the UFO cover-up is really all about.

Doesn’t the simplistic, cartoonish, hysterical “alien” anything topic – and chasing lights in the sky – pale in comparison to the rich, real-life personal history of a modest man who, for over 72 years, has steadfastly put forward this immense body of documented, authenticated, corroborated evidence and information while weathering the abusive storms not from some “alien” race…but from his fellow human beings?

NOTE: Much of the information below may be very challenging, especially for people who don’t really know the depth and breadth of the Meier case and how much more there is to it than simply the best UFO evidence ever presented. (Some of the links in the articles below may no longer be active.):

The Newest In Regard To Matters Of Extraterrestrials, etc.

ATTACKS OF THE GIZA INTELLIGENCES

Contact Report 563

Contact Report 567

…………………………………………………………

Thanks for sharing. In this (and I’ve heard you mention it many times) you state:

Central to all this, one must understand that the whole “alien” thing, with the bug-eyed Grays, etc., is part of the disinformation campaign that keeps people focused on utter nonsense…and away from the Meier case.

Can you point to any evidence that this is the case? I’m sure some of it likely is, but it’s hard to imagine given all of the reported cases, many with what I would say are credible witnesses, that ALL of these are just disinformation. And that is just current cases. There is also rock art from pre-history times from all over the world that bear a likeness to the Greys (likely more than one species).

Best,

XXXX

Amazing triangle UFO over Sherman Oaks, California on 29th June 2014

(Before It's News)

New interesting video footage of an amazing triangle – shaped UFO sighting recorded in the sky above Sherman Oaks, California on 29th ofJune. 

Witness said:
A daylight sighting of a twisting and tubling set of bright orbs appeared in the skies over Sherman Oaks, California which resembles the exact same objects as reported by us this week over the UK. These objects look inter connected as they do not expand outwards while twisting around each other rapidly, there has been a video from Mexico also with a mothership ejecting orbs that behaved in the same way. He has no clue to what they are 1st guessing balloons then re guessing as they were too high in the sky. What is your thoughts on this great sighting?

Contact with Beings from Another World

(Before It's News)

What a wild roller coaster ride of alien abduction and self-exploration. This is as true an account as one could possibly give of such extraordinary experiences. Sherry describes what she endured being repeatedly abducted by ETs but there is an extremely positive outcome. Decades after the first abductions Sherry’s perception of her experience shifts. No longer seeing herself as a victim, she focuses on the positive aspects of what she was taught during her interactions with the ETs. Once she looked beyond the distortion created by her visceral fear, she was aware of the depth of knowledge that was being imparted to her. This knowledge, like the ETs, originated from higher vibrational realms. It was being given to her for the benefit of humanity. Sherry explains the “3 Important Things to Know”, which are concepts about which volumes of spiritual texts have been written.

VIMANA

(Before It's News)

The Middle East has been quite a volatile area and when we hear of the wars and rumors of wars we only can catch a glimpse of what the Middle East is all about.  However there is no question that when we thing of the Middle east we think of the cradle of civilization.  That cradle of civilization extends beyond the confines of the Middle East. It moves into South Asia as well. While India borders Pakistan and Afghanistan it is considered a South Asian country and a country that can boast some the most compelling ancient history.

It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country with over 1.2 billion people, and the most populous democracy in the world.  The people there speak hundreds of different languages and practice many different religions.

India is considered one of the oldest civilizations in fact much of the ancient history allegedly can be called antediluvian meaning that there are allegedly texts and histories that date back before the biblical Adam and the times before Noah.

The Torah speaks of 974 generations existing before the Creation of Adam by God, these are the peoples that the children of Adam and Eve married. According to Scripture, Adam and Eve had three children, Cain, Able and Seth, who married and had children. Biblical scholars have questioned who did they marry and what families existed simultaneously during the creation story.

Some claim that the 974 generations that existed prior to the Torah may have populated India and that there have been texts that not only talk about their remarkable history, but the ancient scrolls also have revealed a connection with the Gods that they describe as powerful, and that used ancient technologies in order to fly through the heavens. It is also interesting to note that these technologies also included very powerful weapons that were capable of causing the entire sky to burn up and that would scorch the earth.

These accounts allegedly date back some 11,000 years. Ancient Sanskrit texts dating back as far as 6000 B.C. describe in detail technologies and flying chariots of the gods called Vimanas.

Many modern “ancient alien” enthusiasts believe that the Vimanas are basically ancient space ships or flying machines that all accounts say frightened elephants and would push warm air from its underside.

Many of these accounts come from a document known as the VYMANNIKA-SHAASTRA where there seem to be diagrams of power sources and schematics of  all kinds of vortex engines and gyroscope technology.

It is also written in these texts that many of these so called space craft were piloted mentally.

The VYMANNIKA-SHAASTRA claims that Vimanas were powered by several gyroscopes placed inside a sealed liquid mercury vortex.

While modern science will say that this type of engine may not have been the best engine, it does not discount that something was of advanced nature being spoken of in the Vedas and is the Sanskrit writings. There is also a curious thing known and a Brahmastra which is literally a weapon that was created by Brahma.

It was considered the deadliest weapon. It was said that when the Brahmastra was discharged, there was neither a counterattack nor a defense that could stop it, except by Brahmadanda, a stick also created by Brahma. The Brahmastra never missed its mark and had to be used with very specific intent against an individual enemy or army, as the target would face complete annihilation. It was believed to be obtained by meditating on the Lord Brahma; it could only be used once in a day. The user would have to display immense amounts of mental concentration.

According to ancient Sanskrit writings, the Brahmastra is invoked by a key phrase or invocation that is bestowed upon the user when given this weapon. Through this invocation the user can call upon the weapon and use it via a medium against his adversary.

The weapon was also believed to cause severe environmental damage. The land where the weapon was used became barren and all life in and around that area ceased to exist, as both men and women became infertile. There was also a severe decrease in rainfall with the land developing cracks, like in a drought. The Brahmastra is mentioned in the epics and Vedas as a weapon of last resort and was never to be used in combat.

Dr. Robert Oppenheimer the architect of modern atomic bomb who was in charge of the Manhattan project was asked by a student after the Manhattan explosion, “How do you feel after having exploded the first atomic bomb on earth”. Oppenheimer’s reply for the question was, “not first atomic bomb, but first atomic bomb in modern times”. He strongly believed that nukes were used in ancient India. What made Oppenheimer believe that it was a nuclear war was the accurate descriptions of the weapons used in the Mahabharata war in the epic which match with that of modern nuclear weapons?

There are many people that believe that the Lonar crater is evidence of something huge hitting the earth in India. Science of course say that a huge meteor impacted the earth their while others speculate that a huge weapon was used and that fused glass much like Trinitite can be forum in the region.

Trinitite is the glassy residue that was left on the desert floor after the plutonium-based Trinity nuclear bomb test on July 16, 1945.

This presents a compelling question were the secrets of India first exploited by German scientists and were most of these Vimana blueprints, and possible weapons of mass destruction channeled and translated by German mystics at the turn of the 20th century?

Most of what we know of the Vril society and the Thule societies is that they channeled the designs of most of the Wonder weapons for Hitler’s Luftwaffe.  They allegedly received this information from the Vril-ya a super race of subterranean beings spoken of by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, in his 1871 novel called The Coming Race.

Hitler and his Nazi scientists   were exceptionally interested in ancient India and Tibet and sent expeditions to both these places yearly, starting in the 30′s, in order to gather esoteric evidence.  This esoteric knowledge had to have included the ancient flying machines and the weapon of mass destruction known as the Brahmastra.

Italian scientist, Dr. Roberto Pinotti, who has made an exhaustive study of the history of Indian astronautics, has explained that his investigations into the Vimanas have shown that these ancient flying machines were well equipped with stealth technology and shields to protect the pilot from what sounds like Laser tech weaponry. Quoting from ‘Vymanika Shastra’ he said the ancient flying  devices of India were made from special heat absorbing metals.

He said the text also discussed the seven kinds of mirror and lenses installed aboard for defensive and offensive uses. The so-called ‘Pinjula Mirror’ offered a sort of ‘visual shield’ preventing the pilots from being blinded by ‘evil rays’ and the weapon ‘Marika’ used to shoot enemy aircraft ‘does not seem too different from laser technology.

Apart from what is known about the ancient flying Machines of India, there is also the account of toys that were found in Egypt that represented modern flying machines we see today.

In 1898, a peculiar six-inch wooden object was found in a tomb at Saqquara, Egypt that dated back to about 200 BCE. The object had a body or fuselage, seven-inch wings that curved downward slightly, a fixed rudder and a tail. It looked very much like the Space shuttle. However what was it doing in ancient Egypt and how did the design and toy show up in 1898?  It wound up in a Cairo museum and was called a child’s toy that was alleged to be a bird.

If the ancients had this technology where did it go and why haven’t we found evidence of it?

Throughout the Vedic histories are the speculations that Vimanas and the Gods had a subterranean fortress and that there have been bases under the earth for millions of years.

An “inner world” is also referred to in the Puranas an ancient city called Shamballa is located inside the Earth. This city is also referred to in Tibetan Buddhism. The theory of Earth having a hollow interior has remained a popular concept ever since and has lived on throughout the ages.

In fact, South American mythology, Native American mythology, Russian legend, Mexican folklore, certain tribes of India and Celtic mythology all seem to refer to a subterranean world inside the hollow interior of the Earth. Some of them even refer to strange creatures and human looking beings that live in underground bases and have ancient technology, perhaps even the Vimana.

Once again the Nazis may have gotten their hands on these ancient texts and translated them and used the tech for a secret Luftwaffe project. The Foo Fighters used by the Nazi’s were powered by the use of mercury. Some argue that the Germans may have combined mercury with gasoline in order to propel these so called “modern” Vimanas.

In case you have forgotten the Nazi’s were responsible for creating the first practical pulse-jet engine, but was it made from reverse engineering the designs provided in the ancient Sanskrit texts?

In February 1947 Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd was in charge of a massive operation in the Arctic that was called Operation High jump. Operation High jump has become a topic among UFO conspiracy theorists, who claim it was a covert US military operation to conquer alleged secret underground Nazi facilities in Antarctica and capture the German Vril flying discs, or Thule mercury-powered spaceship prototypes.

Hollow earth theorists and Vimana theorists may have something more to think about as a new study out of Harvard suggests that there may be an ancient earth buried underneath the earth we know today.

A team of Harvard scientists believe the remnants of an ancient Earth, dating to the time another planet collided with ours to produce the moon, may still be lodged deep within the Earth’s mantle.

Could this be an explanation for all of the possible hollow earth theories we have been hearing about?

The team believes that a previously unexplained isotopic ratio from deep within the Earth might be a signal from material from before the Earth collided with another planet-sized body, which led to the creation of the Moon. This might be an echo of an ancient Earth that existed 4.5 billion years ago, prior to the proposed collision.

The current favored theory says that the Moon was formed 4.5 billion years ago when the Earth collided with a mass the size of Mars, dubbed “Theia.” This theory states that the heat generated by the collision would have melted the whole planet before some of the debris spun off to create the Moon.

The findings of the team at Harvard coincide with a German team’s findings supporting the theory that the Moon was formed 4.5 billion years ago after a catastrophic collision with a planet-sized mass.

All of these new revelations make all of the so called ancient histories less of a myth and more truth.  The tales of hollow earth and flying machines can also be found in Chinese writings as well. Of course the Chinese are credited with inventing rocketry, however the symbolism and ancient texts that followed have laid out the possibility that much of what we call modern space craft, weaponry and even so called underground bases can be found in the ancient texts dating thousands of years before the alleged Genesis written in the bible.

An uncertain future for the Shag Harbour UFO museum

(Before It's News)

The Shag Harbour Incident Society Museum may have to close its doors due to lack of funding.

According to the Yarmouth Country Vanguard, this UFO museum in Nova Scotia, Canada has experienced funding cuts for two consecutive years.

The museum was opened on June 22, 2007 by Cindy Nickerson and Dale Nickerson, two unrelated members of the Shag Harbour Incident Society. The Vanguard explains,

The museum focuses on the famous 1967 UFO sighting in the waters of Cockawit Pass, off Shag Harbour. The incident, centered around reports of a low flying object crashing into the water, was seen by more than a handful of witnesses. The incident was the subject of a military search, a front-page article in the provincial newspaper and remains a source of controversy and mystery to this day.

Although the museum reportedly draws more than 2,000 visitors a year to the area, the operators have been unsuccessful in their attempts to secure the necessary support to grow or even sustain current operations.

The UFO museum currently employs one student who works thirty-five hours a week from June to September. They want to add a second student worker, but they have only been able to secure funding for the existing one student position. Without a second worker, the museum’s hours and open days are limited.

If a solution isn’t found soon, the museum will be forced to close its doors for good.

Open Minds Investigates Vol. 1

(Before It's News)

Hosted by Alejandro Rojas, this DVD reviews five current cases within the UFO Phenomenon:

Ron Noel Alien Implant
Ron Noel wants an object removed from his body that has been present since he was abducted by a UFO almost forty years ago. Open Minds follows Ron as he attempts to discover what the small object in his wrist could be. We give you an up-close look at the removal procedure of what may very well be an alien implant.

Presidents and UFOs
There are persistent rumors and bits of evidence to support the notion that several U.S. presidents have known about UFOs, and have participated in covering up that information. Grant Cameron has been researching this topic for more than thirty years. Now, Cameron investigates, along with Open Minds, what past presidents may have known and what they kept hidden from the American public.

Dan Burisch and S4
Michael Schratt investigates Dan Burisch’s controversial claims that he worked at the S4 top secret complex next to Area 51 in Nevada. Using compelling 3D animation supported by Burisch’s claims, Schratt will tkae you inside the S4 complex to illustrate the hangers and spacecraft allegedly seen by Burisch.

Open Minds Timeline: Roswell
On July 8, 1947, the Public Information Office at the Roswell Army Air Field in New Mexico issued a press release stating that the Army had recovered a crashed “flying disc” at a ranch near Roswell. This press release captured the attention of the media, but on the very next day, a second statement was released claiming that all that was recovered was a weather balloon.

Mauricio Ruiz UFO Video
On the morning of April 11, 2008, former policeman Mauricio Ruiz witnessed and videotaped something that would change his life forever. Ruiz discusses with Open Minds the videos he shot of not one, but three UFOs from his house in Alvin, Texas. Watch as Open Minds has the footage analyzed by experts as Ruiz tells his story.

Bonus features on this DVD include extra commentary from Grant Cameron, Dan Burisch, and Mauricio Ruiz.

Hard copies of this DVD are available for purchase here: Open Minds Investigates Vol. 1

Amazing triangle UFO over Sherman Oaks, California on 29th June 2014

New interesting video footage of an amazing triangle – shaped UFO sighting recorded in the sky above Sherman Oaks, California on 29th June 2014.

Witness said:
A daylight sighting of a twisting and tubling set of bright orbs appeared in the skies over Sherman Oaks California which resembles the exact same objects as reported by us this week over the UK. These objects look inter connected as they do not expand outwards while twisting around each other rapidly, there has been a video from Mexico also with a mothership ejecting orbs that behaved in the same way. He has no clue to what they are 1st guessing balloons then re guessing as they were too high in the sky. What is your thoughts on this great sighting?
