Area 51 Whistleblower Speaks At UFO Conference

In 1989, the world was given a glimpse into a secretive military installation in a remote swath of the Nevada desert, commonly known as Area 51.

With one interview, Bob Lazar, a physicist who worked at the military research site, made Area 51 a household name and raised questions about what’s really going on out there.

Lazar told investigative reporter George Knapp there were nine saucers located in a hangar that was built to blend in with the surrounding desert.  

Lazar was thrust into public scrutiny, and there are people who believe he made up the entire story. In a 25-year anniversary interview with Knapp, Lazar said he wished he had never done the interview.

Next weekend, Knapp is speaking at the annual International UFO Congress in Scottsdale, Ariz., before a question and answer session with Lazar himself.

Knapp, a longtime reporter with a raft of journalism awards, including two Peabodys – the TV equivalent of a Pulitzer Prize – has also done his own research.

Knapp produced and directed a series of documentaries, “UFOs The Best Evidence,” which presents information from scientists, journalists and other researchers about UFO sightings and government cover-ups.

Even before Lazar started talking about Area 51, Knapp started pursing the topic and has always treated it like he does any other story.

“I’ve tried to approach it like any other news story,” Knapp said, “That is what it has always been to me. It’s not a campaign. It’s a news story and it’s a really good news story.”

The skepticism of his colleagues is one of the reasons he has stayed focused on the often-maligned topic. Although he admits much of what is talked about in the field is “complete nonsense,” he believes there is at the very least intriguing evidence.

Col. John Alexander, Ret., who authored “UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies and Realities,” agrees there is evidence of life outside the planet, but looking into it is “not a career builder.”

They both point out that many Americans and respected scientists believe in extraterrestrials but the science establishment does not, which shuts down research on the topic.

“I think we need to do this research without risk of losing your reputation and livelihood,” Alexander said.

The topic is a difficult one not only because of the almost religious zeal that supporters bring to it, but also because the pieces do not always fit together.

“You always come up with conflicting data and scientists frankly don’t like that,” Alexander said.

Knapp agrees the evidence of extraterrestrials exists. He points to a paper trail of documents and studies done by military and intelligence agencies.

“Those documents paint a pretty dramatic picture that they do take this stuff seriously, or they did at one point, that they do have a pile of information that they can’t explain,” Knapp said.

But he doesn’t believe there is one central figure or agency that is suppressing information.

In the end, despite his interest in the topic, when asked if he has personally seen a UFO, Knapp replied, “Not that I can remember.”

The truth about ET visits is out there somewhere

EXTRA TERRESTRIAL ... has ET ever paid us a visit?

Sceptics often make patently indefensible claims about alien visitation.

One recently said: “There is absolutely no evidence that we have been visited by ET. ET never went home. He never left it.”

It’s a witty one-liner, but a silly one nevertheless.

Ask most scientists if they believe that life could exist elsewhere in the universe, and they’ll answer in the affirmative.

Ask them if some other-worldly civilisations may be thousands if not millions of years ahead of us technologically, and they’ll generally assent to that too.

However, when you ask them whether some of those advanced civilisations may have mastered interstellar spaceflight at faster-than-light speed they become a little more cautious.

Nevertheless, many will begrudgingly admit that it might just be possible.

As one physicist told me: “We don’t know how to do that yet, but we might be missing something ... who knows?”

But here’s the crunch question: when you ask them whether those space-travellers may have actually visited Earth, they inevitably shift uncomfortably and say, “No, there’s no evidence of that.”

It seems strange. If ET exists, and there is no plausible reason to deny that they may have developed the means to travel from their world to ours, by what logic can we then deny that it might have happened in reality?

If ET could travel to other worlds, how do we know he hasn’t, and how do we know he hasn’t travelled here?

As I’ve said before, it’s simply impossible to assert that no evidence of ET visitation exists.

How could any individual make that determination unless they had visited every square inch of our planet and examined it?

I have no problem with rational sceptics who simply state they’ve never seen the evidence, but I have a big problem with those who assert there is none in existence.

It’s an assertion that patently cannot be proven.

But some do know the truth:

“Sightings of unexplained objects at great altitude and travelling at high speeds in the vicinity of major U.S. defence installations are of such nature that they are not attributable to natural phenomena or known types of aerial vehicles.” (Dr. H. Marshall Chadwell, former assistant director of the CIA’s Office of Scientific Intelligence.)

“At no time, when the astronauts were in space were they alone:  there was a constant surveillance by UFOs.” (Scott Carpenter, astronaut).

“I know other astronauts share my feelings... we know the government is sitting on hard evidence of UFOs.” (Gordon Cooper, astronaut).

“We have contact with alien cultures.” (Dr. Brian O’Leary (astronaut).

“I’ve been convinced for a long time that the flying saucers are real and interplanetary. In other words we are being watched by beings from outer space.” (Albert M. Chop, former Deputy Public Relations Director at NASA).

These are just a few quotations plucked from hundreds which indicate that intelligent, influential and knowledgeable people are now acknowledging that we have been visited by extraterrestrial beings.

Now it’s just possible they could all be lying, but even the most intransigent sceptic would have to acknowledge that it is highly unlikely. (www.gravitywarpdrive.com/UFO_Testimonies.htm ).

Whether or not they acknowledge that there is indeed scientific evidence to prove ET visitation has occurred, they’d surely have to admit that such powerful testimony can’t simply be ignored.

If hundreds of people of the same calibre were to come forward and say they had incontrovertible evidence that a nuclear power station was about to explode with catastrophic consequences, do you think for one minute that they would be ignored? You bet they wouldn’t.

The only reason that such powerful witness testimony is being kicked to the sidelines is because noisy sceptical voices don’t want to listen.

Of course, those who wish to see the truth about ET kept a secret are more than happy to encourage that practice.

This is from Sergeant Clifford B. Stone (US Army) who belonged to a secret ET Retrieval Team: “We have contact with aliens – not originating from some foreign country, but from some other solar system...and I have been a party to that.”

Next week, in the last of this three-part series, I’ll be asking why the governments of the world have made such strenuous efforts to keep the truth about alien visitation secret...

Home » Amazing » UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum  UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum

(Before It's News)

Alien and UFO circles are abuzz with claims of remarkable ancient Egyptian artifacts discovered in the former Jerusalem home of the famous Egyptologist Sir William Petrie, items that “could rewrite ancient Egyptian history” and indeed the history of the world.

A YouTube video released by the website Paranormal Crucible purports to show ancient Egyptian sculpture artifacts originally found in the “Giza complex,” but reportedly taken away from Petrie’s Jerusalem home by representatives of the Rockefeller Archaeological Museum shortly after they were found, according to the website UFO Sightings Daily.

According to the Shepard Ambellas, editor-in-chief of the “alternative news” website Intellihub News, the alien Egyptian artifacts were discovered hidden in a secret room behind the Egyptologist’s bookcase. Petrie had apparently found proof of extraterrestrial life on Earth before he died in 1942, but chose to hide them away in his Jerusalem home. Now that the Rockefeller Museum has taken possession of the artifacts, alien and UFO pundits fear they may never be accessible to the public.

However, Ambellas claims that some of the relics may be seen at the Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology in Malet Place, Camden, near Gower Street, London.

The Inquisitr was able to confirm that the prestigious Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology has in its possession a vast collection of ancient Egyptian and Sudanese artifacts, including ancient Egyptian “firsts,” such as the “oldest linen” and “oldest dress” from ancient Egypt (5,000 B.C.). The museum also displays lion sculptures from the temple of Min in Koptos and the earliest known products of metallurgy from the ancient civilization. However, The Inquisitr was unable to confirm that the museum has on display “alien Egyptian artifacts” recovered from a secret room in Petrie’s former home in Jerusalem. 

But believers will assume that the more sensitive relics of alien origins are being kept from the public.

Ambella claims that the alien Egyptian artifacts allegedly found in Petrie’s former Jerusalem home, which link the ancient Egyptian civilization to an advanced ET civilization, include two mummified bodies less than four feet in height. Although dwarfs and pygmies captured in the interior of Africa were held in high esteem as “celestial beings” in the Old Kingdom era of ancient Egypt and served in high positions, Ambella speculates that these four-foot creatures are “possibly alien in nature,” and thus literally of “celestial” origins.

Dwarfish Figures In Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyph Stone

Details of the physical features of the mummified bodies appear to support the suggestion that they were “possibly alien in nature.” According to Ambellas, the skeletons have stereotypical alien “elongated heads, large eye sockets, and long spinally arms.”

The Aliens Have “Elongated Heads, Large Eye Sockets, And Long Spinally Arms.”

Equally interesting were the “highly advanced” mechanical devices, including a disc of gold with a transparent top found with the alien bodies. According to Ambella, the high-tech devices have “an intricate mechanism which is surrounded by gold spiral tubing that has several small gold orbs and crosses attached to it.” The devices had non-ancient Egyptian symbols on them, as can be seen in the image below.

Alien Technological Gadget Could Be Navigational Device

Are these alien interstellar navigational devices? Well, they might be, judging from the fact that the relics also included stone tablets that “appear to show alien spacecraft,” according to Ambella.

This is not the first time that archaeologists have found ancient Egyptian stone tablets bearing inscriptions suggestive of alien spacecraft and other sophisticated and advanced machinery. The image below shows the famous “Helicopter Hieroglyphs” recovered from a temple in Abydos, Egypt, showing what appears to be modern aircraft.

Helicopter Hieroglyphs: The Inscriptions Appear To Represent Modern Aircraft.

Although scientists have attributed the “aircraft” interpretation of these inscriptions to the psychological phenomenon called pareidolia, the belief is widespread in alien and UFO enthusiast circles that these hieroglyph inscriptions are proof of alien pilots and astronauts who contacted ancient human civilizations and influenced the cultural and technological development of early human societies.

And indeed, the precocity of the ancient Egyptian civilization appears to make the alien contact theory credible to ET and UFO enthusiasts, who believe that aliens built such architectural marvels as the Pyramid of Giza long before the ancient Egyptian civilization emerged.

Several UFO and alien news websites reported in November of 2010 that Dr. Alaaeldin Shaheen, Dean of the Faculty of Archaeology, Cairo University, admitted, in response to a question about the ET links of the pyramids, that the ancient Egyptian pyramids are “not of this world.”

“I can not confirm or deny this, but there is something inside the pyramid that is ‘not of this entire world.’”

But he later denied the widely circulated report.

“I did not give such stupid statement[s] about aliens and Pyramids. As [I am] Egyptologist I could [not] say such stupid words and ideas.”

Needless to say, such denials don’t impress UFO and ET believers, who see evidence of “cover up” conspiracies when officials and academics deny revealing statements earlier ascribed to them.

UFO and ET pundits continue to debate why Sir William Petrie and his colleagues kept these remarkable alien Egyptian artifacts secret and did not release them to the “general public.”

UFO-waarnemingen met veel getuigen zijn de mooiste (Video)

Eén van de problemen met UFO-waarnemingen is vaak dat het maar één iemand is die iets opmerkelijks ziet.

Met een beetje geluk slaagt deze er dan in om een foto of een filmopname te maken en dan volgt meestal de voorspelbare discussie over of dat beeld dan echt of nep is.

Kortom, als je in je eentje zoiets meemaakt is het niet eenvoudig om het publiek ervan te overtuigen dat je een betrouwbare getuige bent en dat je opnames echt zijn.

De mensen echter die zich afgelopen 10 februari in de buurt van een bouwput in de buurt van de Peruaanse hoofdstad Lima bevonden, hadden dat probleem niet.

Talloze mensen namen daar tegelijkertijd een UFO waar, ongeveer recht boven de bouwput. Alsof deze aan het observeren was wat daar nu eigenlijk werd gebouwd. 

Dat daar een UFO hing, daarover bestaat geen enkele twijfel. Hieronder volgen drie verschillende video’s die allemaal hetzelfde laten zien.

Het zou mooi zijn als al de mensen die meestal als eerste klaar staan om iets gezichtsbedrog of een Chinese lampion te noemen, met een verklaring komen wat daar boven die bouwput hangt.

Als die er niet is dan moeten we toch echt aannemen dat daar werkelijk een volkomen onbekend, maar intelligent bestuurd object in de lucht hangt.

En aangezien er niet één overheid toegeeft dit soort vliegende objecten te bezitten, kunnen we alleen maar concluderen dat de herkomst buitenaards moet zijn.

Horse-Shaped Object Captured On Video Near Colima Volcano in Mexico

An erupting volcano caught on video would be a great footage to watch, but a webcam hosted by Webcams de Mexico shot more than the incredible eruption as its video also shows a strange horse-shaped UFO.

The Mexican volcano named Colima, located around 300 miles west of Mexico City, forced residents near the area to evacuate because of its several eruptions in recent weeks. Webcams de Mexico captured these several eruptions on video through its webcam.

Daily Mail says that one of these videos shows a dark, horse-shaped UFO. The apparent flying object has two legs. It came into view out of nowhere and disappeared moments later.

The media outlet reports that the UFO hunters believe it could be an extraterrestrial vessel. They further made reference to past sightings at volcanic eruptions in Mexico. One witness was quoted by the media outlet saying that the UFO entity has a gigantic body, and it looks like a horse floating in the sky.

It had two extremities at the bottom, a bulging middle, and a thin top, but the legs were not moving, the witness described. The Daily Mail also reports that authorities in Mexico are investigating about the UFO sighting on video.

Massive UFO Sighting in Brazoria County, Houston

A pair of purple and blue lights has been the talk of the town for many decades on the back roads of Brazoria County. Specifically happening between Damon and West Columbia, along Highway 36, the story of Chief Deputy Billy Edwin McCoy and Brazoria County Deputy Bob Goode has been passed from generation to generation nearly 50 years now. McCoy’s son, Kevin, recalled the excitement but scary as well. He was an 8-year-old kid that time.

The comprehensive details of the story have been part of the Brazoria County lore. Interestingly, the story also heavily mentioned in government documents.

The story in the government documents narrates that the deputies were driving at 11 in the evening from Damon to West Columbia along with a Brazoria patrol interceptor. All of a sudden the two officers saw strange blue and purple lights in the sky. They were shocked to see the lights grew bigger and more intense as they came closer to them. They were struck in fear when they saw some form of a giant spaceship, estimated to be a football field long. Both men draw nearly similar sketches of the UFO for investigators.

According to Kevin McCoy, his father firmly believed they saw a real spaceship until he died. Kevin said he never heard his father said maybe when talking about the incident. Kevin revealed that his father kept on saying that they saw something not terrestrial in origin.

Plan om contact met aliens te zoeken stuit op felle weerstand - HLN. be

Wetenschap Het voorstel van enkele Amerikaanse wetenschappers om actief contact te zoeken met buitenaardse beschavingen valt niet in goede aarde. Critici waarschuwen voor de ondergang van onze planeet.

Enkele wetenschappers van het Amerikaanse instituut Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) hebben voorgesteld om actief contact te proberen leggen met buitenaardse wezens. Ze deden dat tijdens de jaarlijkse bijeenkomst van de American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Californië.

Wetenschappers van het SETI-programma 'luisteren' al sinds de jaren 60 naar het heelal in de hoop signalen van buitenaards leven op te vangen. Die passieve benadering bleef tot nog toe zonder resultaat. De onderzoekers vinden dat het intussen wel tijd is om een versnelling hoger te schakelen in de zoektocht naar buitenaards leven. Ze stellen daarom voor om actief boodschappen uit te sturen.

"Sommigen van ons in het instituut zijn geïnteresseerd in 'actief SETI', niet enkel luisteren maar iets uitzenden naar de nabijgelegen sterren omdat er misschien een kans is dat je op een ochtend wakker wordt en een antwoord krijgt", aldus de directeur van het SETI-instituut, dr. Seth Shostak, aan de BBC.

Shostak heeft ook al een idee van wat hij wil uitzenden. "Ik denk dat je veel informatie moet sturen. Ik stel voor dat we het volledige internet sturen, de servers van Google. Stuur het gewoon allemaal. Als ze dan cricket opzoeken, zien ze beschrijvingen, foto's, diagrammen... Ze zullen dat alles met elkaar verbinden en als ze echt intelligent zijn zullen ze zo cricket leren kennen", aldus Shostak. Volgens hem moeten we de nieuwsgierigheid prikkelen met interessante weetjes. "Eerlijk, wat zouden ze van ons willen weten? Willen er horen over de structuur van een waterstofatoom? Nee, dat kennen ze al. Ze willen iets te weten komen over onze rock-'n-roll."

Critici vinden het voorstel van dr. Shostak en zijn team levensgevaarlijk. Zij waarschuwen dat onze signalen de aandacht kunnen trekken van kwaadwillende buitenaardse wezens, met de ondergang van de planeet tot gevolg. Enkele jaren geleden waarschuwde de Britse astronoom Stephen Hawking al voor de gevaren van een mogelijke buitenaardse invasie. "Het resultaat zou vergelijkbaar zijn met wat er gebeurde toen Colombus Amerika ontdekte. Dat draaide niet goed uit voor de Native Americans."

Ook wetenschapper en sciencefictionschrijver David Brin verweest op de AAAS-meeting naar de geschiedenisboeken. "Historici kunnen je vertellen dat het eerste contact tussen industriële beschavingen en lokale inboorlingen doorgaans niet goed verloopt." Hij vindt het bovendien onverantwoord om zo'n belangrijke beslissing te nemen zonder eerst gedetailleerd te bekijken wat de impact van het plan zou zijn. "De arrogantie van wat te roepen in de kosmos zonder enige risicoanalyse is te gek voor woorden. Dit voorstel brengt onze kleinkinderen in gevaar." Zelfs het kleinste risico is nog te groot, aldus Brin.

Volgens Shostak is er echter geen reden om te vrezen voor de voorspelde "vernietiging" van de planeet. "Ik zie niet in waarom aliens zoiets in de zin zouden hebben", zo counterde hij aan de BBC de kritiek. "Elke beschaving die naar hier zou kunnen komen en onze dag wil verpesten door de planeet in brand te steken, weet al dat we hier zijn."

Mr. Kimball Casts His Vote … Ahead Of Time

http://redstarfilms.blogspot.ca/2015/02/the-roswell-slides-you-decide.html

The Roswell slides are out now. Have your say - what do they show! I'll leave the voting open until the end of February. If you pick "something else," please leave a comment with what you think that "something else" might be.

"Personally, when push came to shove I voted for a hoax, but that's because I think the slides represent a human body with a deformity that the Dream Team are purposefully representingas a dead alien despite knowing better, which to me ultimately makes it a hoax, in a "meta" sense. I look forward to hearing whatyou think."

Origins of the Universe

The most popular theory of our universe's origin centers on a cosmic cataclysm unmatched in all of history—the big bang. This theory was born of the observation that other galaxies are moving away from our own at great speed, in all directions, as if they had all been propelled by an ancient explosive force.

Before the big bang, scientists believe, the entire vastness of the observable universe, including all of its matter and radiation, was compressed into a hot, dense mass just a few millimeters across. This nearly incomprehensible state is theorized to have existed for just a fraction of the first second of time.

Big bang proponents suggest that some 10 billion to 20 billion years ago, a massive blast allowed all the universe's known matter and energy—even space and time themselves—to spring from some ancient and unknown type of energy.

The theory maintains that, in the instant—a trillion-trillionth of a second—after the big bang, the universe expanded with incomprehensible speed from its pebble-size origin to astronomical scope. Expansion has apparently continued, but much more slowly, over the ensuing billions of years.

Scientists can't be sure exactly how the universe evolved after the big bang. Many believe that as time passed and matter cooled, more diverse kinds of atoms began to form, and they eventually condensed into the stars and galaxies of our present universe.

Origins of the Theory

A Belgian priest named Georges Lemaître first suggested the big bang theory in the 1920s when he theorized that the universe began from a single primordial atom. The idea subsequently received major boosts by Edwin Hubble's observations that galaxies are speeding away from us in all directions, and from the discovery of cosmic microwave radiation by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson.

The glow of cosmic microwave background radiation, which is found throughout the universe, is thought to be a tangible remnant of leftover light from the big bang. The radiation is akin to that used to transmit TV signals via antennas. But it is the oldest radiation known and may hold many secrets about the universe's earliest moments.

The big bang theory leaves several major questions unanswered. One is the original cause of the big bang itself. Several answers have been proposed to address this fundamental question, but none has been proven—and even adequately testing them has proven to be a formidable challenge.

UFO mania: Ancient Alien Cauldrons in Siberia are Real!

 

A team of scientists and researchers have just returned from an expedition in Siberia and the Valley of the Dead and are claiming they have found proof of at least five of the legendary cauldrons that ancient aliens supposedly built.

Ancient Aliens

A team of Russian scientists and researchers have just returned from the “Valley of Death” region in Siberia with startling claims. Lead scientist Michale Visok had this to say in an interview with a Russian newspaper on what they had found:

“We went out into the Valley of Death to really see and investigate the metal cauldrons that people claim exist there and we actually found five metallic objects buried in marsh like swamps”

Michale gave the following details about these metal objects:

They are each submerged in small pools of swamp like water that is anywhere from 2-3 feet deep.
They are definitely metallic. The scientists entered each swamp and walked on top of the objects and heard metallic sounds when striking the objects.

The tops of the objects are very smooth to the touch but there are sharp points along the outer edges.

2 of the team members got ill during the investigation.

The team consisted of 3 geologists, 1 astrophysicist, 1 mechanical engineer and 3 research assistants.

Asked what does the team think they have discovered? Could it be something built by ancient aliens like so many people believe? Michale declined to comment other than “there is definitely something weird out there, we have no idea what they are or what they were used for”.

Local UFO investigator: It's 'obvious we're not alone'

Photo: Hal Gould Michigan.com)

Harry Willnus knows all too well that eyebrows will rise when he talks about unidentified flying objects, but that doesn't stop the retired social studies teacher from continuing his 60-year quest to see the issue become accepted by the mainstream population.

"UFO sightings are reported every day around the world and in every country around the world," said the Salem resident and former president of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), the world's largest investigative body looking into the UFO phenomena.

Willnus, like other UFO enthusiasts ask, "Are we alone in the universe?"

That question will be the focus of his appearance on the Science Channel's show "Close Encounters." Now in its second season, Willnus will appear on an upcoming episode scheduled to air at 10 p.m., March 10. Willnus will share his vast knowledge about the highly publicized March 1966 reported UFO sighting in Dexter,. He'll be on the show again, at 10 p.m., March 31, talking about a reported sighting in Exeter, N. H.

In the March 20, 1966, Dexter case a group of people, including police officers, reported seeing an object turn from a blue green to a brilliant red to a yellow coloring. It rose 500 feet and returned to the ground, one man said.

Trying to investigate further, the officers said they went out to the far edge of the wooded area and also saw a brilliant light appear and then disappear. The officers said when they returned to their patrol vehicle, a group of people had gathered and reported seeing something similar. These witnesses said the object departed in a western direction at a high rate of speed.

Area reports

A UFO investigator, Willnus sat in the living room of his home and retold other stories of what he believes are extraterrestrial visits. Like a sighting by WJR reporter Marc Avery on Feb. 10, 1978. Avery was on his way to the airport on Interstate 275 when he and his wife saw two lights hovering over their car "for 30, 40, 50 seconds." He called the radio station and spoke on air, describing the aircraft with Warren Pierce. Willnus has the report recorded on his smart phone.

The citing was never debunked, Willnus said. In fact, two men, who were walking in the Merriman Road and Michigan Avenue area later reported they saw a similar aircraft about five minutes before Avery's report.

The U.S. Air Force investigated UFO sightings from 1947 to 1969, in Project Blue Book, which consisted of 12,618 accounts spanning nearly 130,000 pages, Willnus said. The project was discontinued, however, after a committee formed at the request of President Gerald Ford concluded UFOs weren't a threat to national security.

Sightings on the rise

Sightings have doubled in the last couple of years, Willnus said.

"This major increase shows there's something going on," he said. "It's driving the interest in the number one question: 'Are we alone?' Are there other intelligences out there?

"After studying UFOs, it becomes obvious we are not alone," Willnus continued. "I base that on the fact that there are 200 sightings every day around the world. There's pictures, photos and movies. It's not a hoax when these crafts can disappear before our eyes. Or fly at over 1,000 miles an hour and make a right angle turn – or, stop on a dime."

Willnus also refers to a case involving former Novi resident Nancy Tremaine, who had described being abducted by a UFO off Orchard Drive near Meadowbrook Road in the 1960s. Former Novi Police Chief Lee BeGole, who spoke to the Novi News last year at age 93, didn't see the UFO, but he was on duty at the police station the night the incident occurred.

BeGole said an off duty officer told dispatch he saw a strange object overhead and police dispatch took multiple calls from people who said they also saw a strange object in the sky.

If you ask your 10 best friends if they ever had a UFO experience, Willnus said, 10 percent would say, "yes."

"But, people get laughed at once they say that," Willnus said. "And then they say, 'I'm not going to share that again.'"

Not always out of this world

He does note, however, that 90 percent of reported UFOs can be explained by something other than an extraterrestrial visit. The "UFO" might actually be a blimp, a flock of birds flying at night or even the planet, Venus, because it's the closest to Earth and moves quickly.

"The other 10 percent, we're not sure what they are," Willnus added. "I think a good many of those are that we are being visited by intelligent life off the planet Earth. Look at the evidence. The evidence is, overwhelmingly, there is a UFO phenomenon that we don't understand at this time.

"I'm getting up there and I want this story to break before I pass," he said. "Some people in the U.S. government are aware we are being visited. This is a cosmic Watergate where there is a cover-up keeping this from people. The best thing that could happen is if governments, including the United States, would come out and say, 'The UFO phenomenon is real and don't panic, because they don't appear to be here to harm us.'"

UFO DISC SPOTTED OVER SUBMARINE BASE IN WASHINGTON

UFO DISC SPOTTED OVER SUBMARINE BASE IN WASHINGTON

APRIL 22, 1998   ……..    BANGOR SUBMARINE BASE WASHINGTON

 From between approximately 2120 hrs. and  2130 hrs. (Pacific Daylight Time), one or more objects, variously described as a blue-green sphere, an oval of blue-green light, or a disc with six lights on it, was reported from multiple points throughout western Washington State.  The object was reported to change direction of flight on at least three occasions, to execute a rolling maneuver on at least one occasion, to come to an almost complete stop in two locations, to reverse its general course of travel from south to north, and to change its appearance, including its color, on at least two occasions.  One reliable observer witnessed the object to pass slowly over the center of Bangor Submarine Base on Hood Canal, approximately 20-30 miles to the west of Seattle, passing directly over the underground bunkers where nuclear weapons are thought to be stored.  In excess of a dozen seemingly independent and reliable reports regarding the alleged sightings were received by the National UFO Reporting Center between April 22 and May 11.

UFO mania: Nikola Tesla: Time Travel Experiment

There are places where time and space are naturally bent. An example is the strange Lordsburg Door, located near Lordsburg, New Mexico.

Periodically, as the door opens, a tree stump with a human leg embedded in it is seen near mile marker 17 out on US highway 90. 

There is some evidence that these fluxes in space and time can be artificially induced. This appears to have been the case with the USS Eldritch, which took part in the Philadelphia Experiment on August 15, 1943.

The brilliant inventor Nikola Tesla and the theoretician Albert Einstein are both reported to have been involved in this experiment. 

The object was to render the ship invisible by wrapping the hull in inch-thick cable though which a high-frequency signal from an elaborate system of generators and Tesla coils was induced.

The results were disastrous. When activated, the ship generated a green fog and disappeared from Philadelphia, reappearing in Norfolk Harbor 24 hours later. 

Many of the crew ended up embedded in the walls of the ship. Others became insane. Some were mercifully dispatched with a pistol shot to the head. Here is a written account from one of the few survivors of the 176 man crew.

Tesla was a genius of such magnitude that some doubt that he was actually human. Many of Tesla’s inventions, like the “free energy receiver” and the long-range “death ray” may have been suppressed to prevent the collapse of the electrical utility, coal and oil industries or for reasons of National Security.

Tesla also attempted an experiment to use the core of the Earth like a “tuning fork” to conduct “free” electricity. In the process, he melted the town generator of Colorado Springs. 

At exactly the same time, an unexplained explosion in Siberia of about 15 megatons leveled hundreds of square miles of pine forests. This explosion is often dismissed as a comet or meteor impact.

After his death in New York City, Tesla’s files and notes on death rays and other matters were confiscated by the FBI. Some of the FBI files on Tesla were published on the Internet under the Freedom of information act, but these have since been removed.

It’s easy to sensationalize this strange American immigrant. He fell in love with a white female pigeon with violet eyes. He said he saw rays of light emanating from her eyes. He insisted on exactly 17 folded linen napkins with every meal. 

He constructed a tower in New Jersey to communicate with aliens. However his fame rests on rock solid accomplishments: the invention of alternating current, AC motors, the first radio transmitter and receiver (two years before Marconi) and the first to harness the power of falling water to generate electricity (at Niagara Falls).

Big Bang not the start? Quantum theory suggests universe has existed forever

The 10-metre South Pole Telescope and the BICEP searches for echoes of the Big Bang(Reuters)

The Big Bang did not mark the start of the universe, instead there was no beginning and there will be no end, scientists have suggested.

Physicists from the University of Lethbridge in Canada and Benha University in Egypt have created a new model that applies quantum correction terms to Einstein's theory of general relativity.

Einstein's theory predicts the universe came from an infinitely dense single point that then exploded outwards – the Big Bang. However, this state – singularity – creates a number of problems for scientists, including the fact it does not account for what happened before or at the moment of the Big Bang.

The physicists have now incorporated principles from quantum mechanics that suggest the universe could have always existed in a "quantum potential". This, in turn, could have eventually collapsed in the hot explosion that was the Big Bang.

Published in Physics Letters B, the scientists also say their model could account for dark matter and dark energy.

The scientists combined the work of David Bohm, who in the 1950s looked to use quantum theory to describe the shortest paths between two points on a curved surface, and Amal Kumar Raychaudhuri, who worked on the formation of singularities.

Using a quantum-corrected Raychaudhuri equation, they were able to create new equations to describe the expansion and evolution of the universe within general relativity. They showed that quantum particles can never meet or cross paths, phys.org explains. 

"As far as we can see, since different points in the universe never actually converged in the past, it did not have a beginning," study author Professor Saurya Das told the MailOnline.

The authors are not saying the Big Bang did not happen - just that it was not the start of the universe. (Reuters)

"It lasted forever. It will also not have an end ... In other words, there is no singularity. The universe could have lasted forever. It could have gone through cycles of being small and big. Or it could have been created much earlier."

This idea does not, however, suggest there was no Big Bang. Brian Koberlein, a researcher at Rochester Institute of Technology, wrote in a blog post that there was some confusion over what the physicists were suggesting.

"A new paper in Physical Letters B has the popular press wondering if there was no Big Bang, but the actual paper claims no such thing... The Big Bang is a robust scientific theory that isn't going away, and this new paper does nothing to question its legitimacy."

He said they used the Raychaudhuri equation with "a few quantum tweaks" – it uses some aspects of quantum theory, but is not a complete quantum gravity model because we do not have this. He also notes the theory is basic and the idea of an eternal universe is not new. 

"What the authors show is that their modified Raychaudhuri model eliminates the initial singularity of the big bang. It also predicts a cosmological constant, which is a proposed mechanism for dark energy. Their model is really basic, but this first result shows that this type of approach could work."

Why Did the U.S. Build an Uncapped Pyramid... Complete With an All Seeing Eye... in the Middle of Nowhere?

February 12, 2015 - A huge pyramid in the middle of nowhere tracking the end of the world on radar. An abstract geometric shape beneath the sky without a human being in sight. It could be the opening scene of an apocalyptic science fiction film, but it’s just the U.S. military going about its business, building vast and other-worldly architectural structures that the civilian world only rarely sees.

The Library of Congress has an extraordinary set of images documenting the Stanley R. MickelsenSafeguard Complex in Cavalier County, North Dakota, showing it in various states of construction and completion. And the photos are awesome.

Should We Be Afraid Of Aliens?

i

In the long list of modern fears, bloodthirsty aliens may not rank near the top. We have more immediate worries, from terrorism and bioengineered (or not) global epidemics to nuclear holocaust and natural disasters.

However, the notion that other intelligences exist out there in the universe is pervasive in popular culture. Mirrors to our own history, in particular colonial exploitations, aliens are often portrayed as evil invaders bent on coming here to wreak havoc.

How realistic are these scenarios, given what we know now about astronomy and the possibility of life in other worlds?

Stephen Hawking, among others, has suggested that we should be very careful with aggressive aliens — that, in fact, we should be as stealthy as possible, lest we reveal our presence and location to predatory ETs in our cosmic neighborhood.

There are three parts to this. The first concerns the existence of other worlds with habitable conditions — that is, that can harbor life as we know it. Thanks to the efforts of the many planet hunters out there, in particular the remarkable results from NASA's Kepler mission, we now know that most stars have planets surrounding them. Thousands of these planets have been identified, and, among these, several have properties similar to Earth: rocky and within the habitable zone of their main star. Although the majority of these orbit small and cooler M dwarf stars, where conditions for life may be very harsh indeed, the fact is that we should expect a few Earth-like worlds within a distance of about 1,000 light years or so.

Whether any of these potentially habitable worlds are, in fact, able to harbor life, is another story. In the next few decades, with combined efforts from the James Webb Space Telescope and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, as well as missions from the European Space Agency, we should know better how rare such Earth-like planets are and, with luck, have a rough idea of their atmospheric composition. We should be able to know if their atmospheres have some of the right ingredients for harboring life. (There are, however, several potential shortcomings with these missions. For a very nice review of the situation, see Lee Billings' recent article for Scientific American.)

But let's be generous and grant that there are other Earth-like planets out there with the right conditions for life. We then hit the second part of the issue: the existence of life and, more to the point, of complex life forms in one or more of these worlds. Life emerged and took root fairly quickly here on Earth, only some 400 millions years after conditions settled at about 3.5 billion years ago. It may have emerged earlier; we still don't know. This is good news for life elsewhere: If it emerged quickly here, it can't be that hard. But, in fact, we don't really know how hard it is for life to emerge.

At face value, the transition from nonlife to life seems incredibly complex. But even if it's fairly easy, what happens next is crucial: To go from simple life, consisting of unicellular organisms, to complex life requires a series of extremely unlikely events. And the unlikeliness is not only related to tough biological mutations and metabolic pathways that have to be cleared up, but to the marriage of life to the planet as a whole. We can't understand the history of life in a planet without understanding the history of the planet; the two go hand in hand. This means that for life to emerge in a planet is different from for life to evolve in that planet in a path toward increasing complexity. There is nothing in evolution that tells us that once life emerges it will become increasingly more complex. What evolution does tell us is that life is in a constant struggle for adaptation, Darwin's theory of natural selection. That accidental mutations lead to better-adapted life forms does not imply that these life forms will steadily become more complex. In other words, finding life in another planet is a far cry from finding complex, multicellular life forms, much less intelligent life forms. True, intelligence grants a huge benefit toward adaptation (selective advantage), as we see here. But it is not a necessary condition for adaptation. Just think that of the 3.5 billion years that life has existed on Earth, we've only been here for about 200,000 years.

But, again, let's be generous and grant that intelligent life forms do exist in one or more worlds within a few thousand light years from us. Should we fear them? This is the third part of the issue. We have absolutely no idea what kind of minds such intelligences would have — and of what technological stage they'd have reached. What we do know is that they haven't been here yet. Or, if they have, they left without leaving any clues. (Unless, of course, we are their creations, a topic for another blog.)

There are four conditions that need to be satisfied for us to start fearing our distant alien neighbors. The aliens must: 1. Have developed technologies that allow them to travel or send targeted probes across interstellar distances; 2. Have spotted us as a desirable destination; 3. Have intent to explore space around them (they may not share the same kind of wanderlust); 4. Have evil intents.

The search for extraterrestrial intelligence is a must. We will only find it if we look. However, given the arguments above, we should be very confident that, even if they do exist — and that's a huge if — they are very remote. From what we know now of space travel and all its difficulties — fuel, speed, radiation shielding — had the aliens the technologies to overcome all this, they would probably also have technologies that would have spotted us a long time ago, for example, by analyzing our atmospheric composition or, if closer than around 50 light years, by detecting our radio and TV broadcastings.

We are safe, at least from this kind of menace. Best we concentrate on other, more pressing ones.

UFO crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015

New interesting video footage recorded a UFO while crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015.

Witness said:
A craft from outer space or just a burning piece of space rubble? The intriguing video has captured the imagination of sky-watchers. This video shows the dramatic moment a giant glowing UFO appears to land in the sea off a UK beach – in a suspected METEOR strike. The footage, filmed from a fixed camera on the shore at Dawlish, Devon, shows the meteor flying through the sky before it appears to hit the water. The operator of the fixed camera later wrote posted on Facebook: “What was caught on camera the other night? Was it a bird or a plane, maybe even Superman?”
Many sky-watchers took to social networks to discuss the shock sighting – with some speculating it was a UFO from outer space.
