Drones Spotted Flying Over France Sparks Terror Alert
Drones Spotted Flying Over France Sparks Terror Alert
Drones flying over France prompted a new terror alert for the nation. At least five drones were spotted flying over French landmarks, including the U.S. Embassy. New terror alert for France after ‘at least’ five drones are spotted flying above Paris landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and including the U.S. Embassy.
The drones were noticed fairly quickly when flying over top tourists spots in France. The unmanned aircraft were spotted in “at least” five different locations in the capital between midnight and 6 a.m. French security agents were not able to catch the drone operators.
Civilian drones are not permitted in France due to a stated security risk involving such unmanned aircraft. It is reportedly believed by many security experts that drones are used by terrorists to garner access to targets prior to an attack. Civilian drones are not permitted near French nuclear facilities due to a no-fly zone which encompasses a 1.6-mile radius around such facilities.
The five drones were reportedly spotted in the Invalides military museum where Napoleon Bonaparte is buried and the Place de la Concorde in the French capital. Drones are often appointed with video recording equipment which could be used by terrorists for surveillance.
“It could be a coordinated action but we don’t know for now,” an unidentified French security source stated, according to a report in the Daily Mail. Drones have also reportedly been spotted flying around military facilities, the presidential palace, and nuclear plants in recent months.
The five drones spotted flying around France happened as terrorist attack threats have reportedly been issued by terror groups. The drones could be seen flying around the city throughout the night but no one could identify the operators, according to local police. A special police aviation team attempted to determine who was behind the drone flights.
Although there have been other “mysterious” drone flights around Paris, the most recent sighting is reportedly the first time so many drones have been seen flying around potentially vulnerable French targets. The U.S. Embassy in France has also reportedly been threatened with terror attacks in the past from Al Qaeda and similar groups. The five drones flying around France did not pose a threat if the devices had been intentionally been crashed into buildings, according to French police.
What do you think about the drones flying around France? A prank of recon on soft targets by potential terrorists?

Two Texas witnesses northbound along I-35 between Austin and Dallas reported watching “two bright, shiny cylinder or cigar-shaped objects with rounded noses and tails” cross the highway ahead of them at approximately 1,000 feet, according to testimony in Case 63509 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness, with his wife in the front passenger seat, was driving between 75 and 80 mph in perfect, blue sky weather in 54 degrees, with 30 to 40 vehicles immediately ahead of them in traffic, at 9:45 a.m. on February 19, 2015.
The couple was north of Georgetown, TX, and had just passed Exit 268.
“The two objects crossed the highway in front of us at an elevation of approximately 1,000 feet,” the witness stated. “They were perfectly in-line with one another—approximately 3,000 feet apart. It’s like they were flying on a stretched out wire—perfectly in-line with one another.”

The witness described the objects.
“They were identical in size, shape, and color. The shape and color of these two objects was contrasted against the blue sky. They were shiny—a bright white. There were no discernible wings, tails, landing gear, propellers, jet engines, windows, or lights. They were two cylindrical or cigar-shaped objects with rounded nose and tails.”
The witness described their movements.
“I believe the objects were two-to-three-miles ahead of us when I first saw them. They crossed just above the tree line traveling from west to east. They were in my field of view for five seconds and traveling at a high rate of speed.”
The witnesses’ wife was able to view the objects for a longer period of time.
“I pointed and asked my wife to look out her passenger window to see if she could see what I was watching. She watched the two objects for another 20 seconds until the topography to the east blocked her view. She said the objects did not alter their course, configuration, elevation, or speed—remaining quickly traveling to the east at a high rate of speed until they were no longer visible from her vantage point.”
The nearest town to this sighting report is Walburg, TX, an unincorporated area located at the crossroads of Farm to Market Road 972 (FM 972) and Farm to Market Road 1105 (FM 1105) in Williamson County.
The witness said there was no discernible wings, tails, landing gear, propellers, jet engines, windows, or lights on the objects. Pictured: I-35 near Walburg, TX. (Credit: Google)
Texas is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.00 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. Texas received a total of 26 UFO reports in January.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
Filmed miles from NASA / Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas; Houston Skywatch captures a chemtrail plane that appears as a circular “orb” like shape. We have no explanation for why, among dozens and dozens of filmed planes to date, that this one appears as a bright white circular object. It could be some sort of drone or other advanced technology we as the public are simply unaware of. It is unusual to note that it seems to sputter and turn off and on while typical chemtrails leave either persistent or non-persistent trails. These types of ‘sputtering’ planes are a rare sight but prove that they are simply not contrails. Here it is – we start off with recently filmed time lapse photography (02/22/15,) move into the actual orb footage, and then show other “standard” chemplanes for comparison all in full high def. 1080p. It’s episode #00012 of Houston Skywatch.
Take care and God Bless. Please subscribe, share, comment, and like if you want to see more content. This is episode #00012 in a new series of footage which we are capturing on a daily basis when the weather allows. We have recently purchased new filming equipment and so it is only a matter of time before more and better footage emerges. The Spring Eqiunox will be a highlight for sure.
Four new mysterious giant craters have appeared in the Siberian permafrost in northern Russia, sparking fears that global warming may be causing gas to erupt from underground.
Scientists spotted the new holes, along with dozens of other smaller ones, in the same area as three other enormous craters that were spotted on the Yamal Peninsula last year.
The craters are thought to be caused by eruptions of methane gas from the permafrost as rising rising temperatures causes the frozen soil to melt.

Unexplained: The first of the new craters discovered, named B1 (pictured above), shows signs of an huge eruption of gas
It has sparked fears that the craters could become more common as climate change continues to warm and led to warnings that the area is facing a looming natural disaster.
One of new craters, surrounded by at least 20 smaller holes, is just six miles from a major gas production plant.
Experts have predicted there could be up to 30 more are waiting to be discovered.
Scientsts, however, are still largely baffled by the exact processes causing the craters.
Professor Vasily Bogoyavlensky, deputy director of the Moscow-based Oil and Gas Research Institute, part of the Russian Academy of Sciences, has called for 'urgent' investigation of the new phenomenon amid safety fears.
Until now, the existence of only three Siberian craters had been established when great caverns in the frozen landscape were spotted by passing helicopter pilots.
'We know now of seven craters in the Arctic area,' Professor Bogoyavlensky told The Siberian Times.
'Five are directly on the Yamal peninsula, one in Yamal Autonomous district, and one is on the north of the Krasnoyarsk region, near the Taimyr peninsula.
'We have exact locations for only four of them.
'The other three were spotted by reindeer herders.
'But I am sure that there are more craters on Yamal, we just need to search for them. I would compare this with mushrooms.
'When you find one mushroom, be sure there are few more around. I suppose there could be 20 to 30 craters more.'
Two of the newly-discovered large craters - also known as funnels to scientists - have turned into lakes, revealed Professor Bogoyavlensky.
'It is important not to scare people, but this is a very serious problem.
'We must research this phenomenon urgently to prevent possible disasters.
We cannot rule out new gas emissions in the Arctic and in some cases they can ignite.
he Arctic and in some cases they can ignite.'

Professor Bogoyavlensky said that the parapet of the craters suggested an eruption of gas from a shallow underground reservoir.
The first hole was spotted in 2013 by helicopter pilots 20 miles from a gas extraction plant at Bovanenkovo, on the Yamal Peninsula.
An examination of the area using satellite images, comparing landscapes in the past with the present day, has alerted Russian experts to the prospect that the phenomenon is more widespread than first thought.

Simmering: Methane gas can be seen bubbling up out of this lake in the Yamal region and is thought to be an old crater
Experts are particularly interested in a crater they have named B2, which just six miles to the south of the Gazprom gas field at Bovanenkovo.
Old satellite imagery shows no sign of craters at the site but more recent images show there is now a lake there measuring about 5,000 square metres.
The lake is thought to have formed in a hole that is 100 metres by 50 metres in diametre and is surrounded by 20 smaller holes filled with water that are around one to two metres wide.
Residents living near to another of the craters, close to Antipayuta on the Yamal Peninsula, reported seeing a flash of light.
This has led some to conclude that it was the result of gas trapped in the permafrost exploding.
Professor Bogoyavlensky said: 'We need to answer now the basic questions: what areas, and under what conditions, are the most dangerous?

When this crater was discovered in 2014, theories ranged from a man-made hoax, to aliens or a meteorite
'These questions are important for the safe operation of the northern cities and infrastructure of oil and gas complexes.'
There is already scientific concern that Lake Baikal, the largest and oldest freshwater lake in the world, but well outside the Arctic Circle, could be at risk of similar gas explosions.
Scientists have previously said there is growing evidence that rising temperatures in the region could be the main catalyst triggering the blasts.
It is thought permafrost at the sites could have one million times more methane hydrates locked inside than ordinary gas.
One expert estimated that the total explosive power of the craters has been the equivalent of about 11 tonnes of TNT.

Scientists are attempting to visit all of the craters, like above, to better understand how they were formed

In the winter the sides of the craters freeze, like above, making it easier for scientists to take samples
There are also two tectonic fault lines across the Yamal Peninsula, with another possibility being that the blow-outs are caused by a deadly combination of heat leaving these rifts, a higher than normal air temperature, and the 'fire ice' melting.
Professor Bogoyavlensky revealed one picture of a Yamal lake showing signs of what he calls 'degassing'.
'This haze that you see on the surface shows gas seeps from the bottom of the lake to the surface,' he said. 'We call this process 'degassing'.'
He is not sure if this lake, too, was previously a crater 'or if the lake formed from another process.
'More important is that the gases from within are actively seeping through this lake.'

Vier gapende gaten gevonden in het noorden van Rusland
Vier gapende gaten gevonden in het noorden van Rusland
In het noorden van Rusland zijn vier reusachtige kraters gevonden. De mysterieuze gaten bevinden zich in hetzelfde gebied als drie andere kraters die verleden jaar op het Jamal-schiereiland zijn gevonden.
De kraters zijn vermoedelijk veroorzaakt door explosies door methaangas. Eén van de kraters, die wordt omringd door 20 kleinere gaten, ligt op slechts enkele kilometers van een grote gasraffinaderij. Volgens experts zullen binnenkort nog een dertigtal kraters worden gevonden.
Wetenschappers hebben nog altijd geen idee hoe de kraters precies ontstaan. Professor Vasily Bogoyavlensky van de Russische Academie van Wetenschappen pleit voor onderzoek naar het nieuwe fenomeen. “We weten nu van het bestaan van zeven kraters in het Poolgebied,” zei hij. “Vijf bevinden zich op het Jamal-schiereiland, één in Jamalië en één in Krasnojarsk. Van vier kraters weten we precies waar ze liggen, de rest is gespot door herders.”
“Ik ben er zeker van dat er meer kraters op Jamal zijn te vinden, we moeten er alleen naar zoeken,” vervolgde hij. “Ik denk dat er nog 20 tot 30 kraters zullen worden ontdekt.”
Twee van de pas ontdekte kraters zijn veranderd in meren. Experts zijn met name geïnteresseerd in een krater die B2 is genoemd. De krater ligt op 10 kilometer van het gasveld Bovanenkovo van Gazprom.
Op oude satellietbeelden zijn geen kraters te zien, maar op nieuwe foto’s wordt een meer zichtbaar met een oppervlak van ruim 1500 vierkante meter. Bewoners van het gebied rond de kraters zeiden een lichtflits te hebben gezien. Volgens sommigen kan deze flits wijzen op een explosie van gas dat gevangen zat in de permafrost.
De internationale UFO gemeenschap is in rep en roer vanwege een mogelijk neergestorte UFO in een bevroren meer in Canada.
Het leger zou zijn uitgerukt, toegangswegen afgesloten en diverse getuigen melden dat ze een schijfvormig object hebben gezien.
Vorige week woensdagavond circuleerden er allerlei berichten op de sociale media dat er vreemde lichten (UFO) waren waargenomen boven Lake Winnipeg in Canada.
Even later veranderden die berichten in dat er een schijfvormige UFO was neergestort in het bevroren meer en dat het leger ter plaatste was om de bergingsoperatie uit te voeren.
Vervolgens zijn er dan allerlei verwarrende berichten van getuigen die dingen zouden hebben gezien.
Hier komt direct het probleem om de hoek kijken. Onmiddellijk duiken namelijk de firma’s die veel geld verdienen met het maken van nepvideo’s zoals de beruchte Blake Cousins van Third Phase of the Moon op dit verhaal en komen met allerlei verhalen en getuigenverklaringen.
Onderstaande is ook weer zo’n foto gemaakt door “een getuige”, maar er bestaat geen enkele zekerheid over de echtheid ervan.
Maargoed, als we dat soort dingen terzijde schuiven dan blijft er nog steeds een interessant verhaal over.
Het Canadese leger komt met een vage verklaring dat ze daar net “toevallig” aan het oefenen waren. Dit is het meest gebruikte excuus van overheden en defensie wanneer er sprake is van UFO-activiteit.
Ook een wel heel merkwaardige verklaring van Luitenant-Colonel Paul Davies, leider van het team van het Canadese leger dat eveneens “toevallig” oefende op het hulp bieden nadat een vliegtuig was neergestort.
Davies vertelde dat het vreemde licht dat mensen hadden gezien afkomstig was van een vliegtuig dat meedeed aan de oefening en dat in staat is om bijna verticaal op te stijgen.
“Daarom lijkt het alsof het licht recht de lucht ingaat, maar dat is niet zo”. Het vreemde is dat geen van de mensen die de lichten meldden iets gezegd hebben over dat ze recht de lucht in gingen. Men had het over een licht dat zichtbaar was en vervolgens leek neer te storten.
Kortom, het lijkt erop dat er inderdaad iets merkwaardigs is gebeurd in Canada.
Echter, met al die nepbedrijven die bewust kletsverhalen rondstrooien, wordt het er niet gemakkelijker op om de waarheid boven tafel te krijgen.
Waarschijnlijk is even rustig afwachten de beste strategie en dan hopen dat er echte, betrouwbare getuigen naarvoren komen die kunnen worden geïdentificeerd.
Social media reports of a possible UFO sighting last night near Jackhead, Man., are not true, says the Canadian Forces, which attributed the bright light people saw to an airplane from a training exercise.
On Wednesday night, several people said on Twitter and Facebook that they saw a bright light in the sky, fuelling speculation that it may have been an unidentified flying object.
The rumour became stronger when photos were posted of Canadian Forces vehicles in the area, with some people claiming the military was there to contain a UFO crash site.
But it was not a UFO at all, says Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer 38 Territorial Battalion Group, which is involved in an Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg this week
A picture recently circulated online showing people looking at a mysterious object. Experts are left baffled with this UFO in the skies over Cornwall, UK. They encourage anyone who can help identify the unusual aerial object that was spotted above a beach in Bude few days ago to come forward.
Founder of the Cornwall UFO group, Dave Gillham, said that it looks triangular, but he has no idea about the identity of that thing.
After the Ministry of Defence (MOD) stopped the line for people who want to report UFOs, the data about the subject has since been collected by independent organisations, such as the UK UFO and British UFO Research Association.
The MOD said that it has no opinion about the existence of extra-terrestrial life or otherwise. However, it noted that no UFO report has revealed any proof of a potential threat to the UK in over 50 years of collecting such data. In this connection, MOD said that it will no longer receive report on UFO sightings or investigate them.
John Wickham of BUFORA said that since the shutdown of the MOD line for UFO report, they have received a massive increase in calls. Wickham noted that most reported sightings are explainable with some research, but if a military is involved, the MOD are willing to call it a UFO to keep their secrets. However, Wickham stressed that they always respect the beliefs of everyone.
Former Obama aide and well-known X-Files obsessive John Podesta tweeted this month that his "biggest failure of 2014" was "Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files."
Many assume that Podesta will soon sign up for the still-hypothetical Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, which means that the UFO lobby might just endorse Clinton for a second time if decides to run.
Stephen Bassett, former head of the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee and head of the Paradigm Research Group (which runs a blog about presidential UFO news and hosted an off-brand hearing in 2013 for ex-members of Congress on government transparency in matters extraterrestrial), told the Huffington Post in 2008 that Hillary Clinton "knows this issue is not trivial," given her relationship with Podesta, who has long advocated for the government to declassify documents relating to UFO sightings. Nearly eight years later, Bassett is still trying to access any government documents on UFOs, and still hoping that Hillary Clinton will reach out to constituents like him.
Roll Call published a story about Bassett's efforts on Monday morning, which ended with the lobbyist's thoughts on the 2016 election. He doesn't see a path to victory for Hillary Clinton that does not involve discussing the potential of celestial circumnavigation.
“As far as I’m concerned … Hillary Clinton is not going to become the president of the United States without going through the extraterrestrial issue," Bassett told Roll Call. "Period."
Clinton could always outsource discussions of aliens to another high-profile space expert on her team. Bill Clinton recently disclosed that he did not find any evidence of extraterrestrial life at Roswell or Area 51 during his presidency.
Bassett also suggested that Republican candidates should also support a pro-transparency UFO agenda, before Russian President Vladimir Putin beats them to it. "If Bassett wants to reach out to the GOP, 2016 hopeful and noted Putin hater Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), who heads the Senate Subcommittee on Space, Science, and Competitiveness, might be a good person to start with. "
Life beyond Earth has been a reliable recurring feature of presidential coverage. In 2012, Newt Gingrich, who had an uncredited appearance as an alien in Men in Black, vowed to build a permanent base on the moon. During a 2008 presidential debate, Dennis Kucinich discussed his UFO sighting, and Sen. Barack Obama said that he did not know if there was life out there. During a 1992 presidential debate, Independent candidate Ross Perot managed to bring extraterrestrial life into a discussion about gridlock. "It's not the Republicans' fault, of course, and it's not the Democrats' fault. Somewhere out there there's an extraterrestrial that's doing this to us, I guess."
In 1997, CNN found that 80 percent of Americans thought the government was hiding information about aliens. Ninety-three percent of respondents had never been abducted by aliens or known someone who had been kidnapped and taken to another universe.

UFO-MANIA : City Found 360 Feet Below Missouri City, Giant Human Skeleton Found
UFO-MANIA : City Found 360 Feet Below Missouri City, Giant Human Skeleton Found
Coal miners in the city of Moberly, Missouri mining a shaft 360 feet deep, broke into a cavern revealing “a wonderful buried city,”multiple sources reportedin 1885.
Incredible rude style masonry and artifacts have been identified. Including stone benches, bronze and flint knives, stone and granite hammers, metal statues, metallic saws and a stone fountain that flowed with “perfectly pure water”, which was found to be impregnated with lime.
“Lying beside the fountain were portions of a human being and from measurement of the bones it concluded that when alive the figure was three times the size of an ordinary man and possessed of wonderful muscular power and quickness. “, according to the St Paul Daily Globe.
The Semi-Weekly South Kentuckian published the measurements of the giants leg, “The bones of the leg were measured , the femur measuring 4 and 1/2 feet, the tibia four feet and three inches. The head bones had separated in two pieces, the sagittal and cornal suturis having been destroyed”
The city was arched in by a hard and thick stratum of lava. The civilization used a regularly laid out road system enclosed by walls to travel around. A hall was discovered wherein were stone benches, tools of all descriptions for mechanical service.
The searching party spent twelve hours in the depths and only gave up explorations because of the oil in their lamps being low. No end to the wonderful discovery was reached.
The statues were not accurately made as those made by the mechanics in the year 1885, however they demonstrated much skill and an evidence of an advanced civilization.
The facts above are vouched for by Mr. David Coates, the recorder of the city of Moberly, and Mr. George Kealing, City Marshall, who were of the exploring party.
I could find no record of the 2nd exploration. Perhaps in the historic papers on film, in the town of Moberly, information may still exist.
In order to find 8 newspaper stories I needed to search “stratum of lava” 1884-1886.
In an odd coincidence the terms “cave + Missouri”, “Missouri + cave + coal mine”, “Missouri cave fountain”, “Missouri gaint” and countless other rational terms would not locate these articles on the library of congress website.
It seems you need to be clever in your search terms in order to locate historical articles that are relevant.
Unicum: UFO-ontvoering officieel erkend door Amerikaans museum
Unicum: UFO-ontvoering officieel erkend door Amerikaans museum
De Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum heeft de UFO-ontvoering van de 55-jarige Thomas Reed officieel erkend. Het Great Barrington-museum heeft na lang beraad geconcludeerd dat Reed ontvoerd moet zijn geweest door aliens.
“Ik weet dat dit moeilijk te verteren is,” zei Reed. “Het is voor mij zelfs moeilijk te verteren.” Reed en zijn jongere broer Matthew maakten in de jaren zestig een aantal vreemde gebeurtenissen mee. In 1966 zag de 6-jarige Reed vreemde lichten en figuren in de hal van het huis waar hij woonde.
Plotseling bevonden de twee zich in een vreemd schip waar ze werden onderzocht en de projectie van een wilg zagen. Het jaar erop zag Reed opnieuw vreemde lichten, sloegen deuren dicht en waren zijn broer en hij weer in het vreemde schip. Voordat hij er erg in had stond hij op de oprit waar zijn moeder al die tijd naar hem had gezocht.
Twee jaar later, in 1969, was de familie Reed op een avond onderweg toen de hele familie (Thomas, Matthew, moeder en grootmoeder) plotseling in een grote ruimte met ‘mierachtige wezens’ stond. Het volgende moment zaten ze weer in de auto.
Hoewel de gebroeders Reed niet precies weten wat er is gebeurd, speculeren ze dat buitenaardse wezens er iets mee te maken hebben gehad. De Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum heeft besloten dat het gaat om feitelijke gebeurtenissen.
Wat betekent dat? “Het betekent dat we geloven dat het echt is gebeurd,” zei directeur Debbie Oppermann tegenover de Boston Globe. “Ik weet dat we hier veel moeilijkheden mee gaan krijgen. Maar we hebben er lang over na gedacht en gebaseerd op het bewijs dat we hebben gekregen zijn wij van mening dat het een waargebeurd verhaal is.”
Oppermann legde uit dat het voor het eerst is dat een museum of geschiedkundige vereniging in de Verenigde Staten een UFO-ontvoering officieel heeft erkend. Het museum is met name geïnteresseerd in de gebeurtenissen in 1969, omdat er toen door meerdere mensen UFO’s zijn gezien.
The mysterious and most probably smelly bipedal man-beast that has been purported to roam the North American wilderness has been called many names but “Bigfoot” is the most well-known.
There have been records of it since 1950 but no concrete evidence – teeth, hair, bones or any other parts found. The most authentic proof is the famous film shot by Patterson and Gimlin in California in 1967 and it appears to show a man dressed in a cheap gorilla costume more than anything else.
Loch Ness Monster
Best known as the Loch Ness Monster, Nessie is the sea monster thought to inhabit the Loch Ness in Scotland. It was first sighted in 1933 and since then numerous locals and tourists have claimed to have seen something in the cold depths.
According to some, Nessie is a Plesiosaur, a gigantic marine reptile from the age of the dinosaurs. Despite the eyewitness testimony, hoax photographs and scientific research, there is still no legitimate proof for the existence of Nessie.
Jersey Devil
This mythical monster was said to have been born in the beginning of the 18th century. According to folklore, a woman in the New Jersey area literally gave birth to the cursed creature, with the head of a horse, wings of a bat and devil’s hooves.
Over the centuries, the legend has been fueled by fictitious tales, hoaxes and on occasion, strange sightings in the woods, but according to Loren Coleman’s book “Monsters of New Jersey” there has not yet been any solid evidence that this is anything more than a myth.
Montauk Monster
A relatively recent addition to the list of monsters, the Montauk Monster was a strange creature that washed up on the beach of Montauk, New York in July 2008.
A photograph of the 4-legged animal showing its claws and almost no fur has been circulating the Internet. Some say it is a hoax, others believe it was once a pig or some kind of unknown, genetically modified animal.
Fiji Mermaid
Even though mermaids in general are not included on any list of monsters, the Fiji mermaid is an exception. The showman P. T. Barnum revealed the infamous Fiji mermaid in 1840 – but this was no beautiful, half naked woman-fish but a creature with a horrifying head, the torso of a small monkey and the tail of a fish.
Of course, it was not real – upon close inspection one could see the hand stitching that connected the 2 animals. This was just one of several fake mermaids created to profit off the public’s curiosity.
Sea Monsters
Tales of sea monsters have existed for thousands of years. The 1752 book “The Natural History of Norway” describes a monster called a Kraken being the size of a small island, flat and with numerous tentacles.
Often it was under the dominance of the sea gods. Nowadays, sightings of sea monsters are very rare and scientists believe that many of the past eyewitness testimonies were actually describing gigantic cephalopods, capable of reaching lengths of over 32 ft (10 m).
Ogopogo
It look as though each country has its own lake monster. Ogopogo or the Canadian Loch Ness Monster is a mythical beast which many believe to be hiding in Okanagan Lake in British Columbia.
Centuries ago, the local population believed that a water sprite inhabited the lake and they carried out human sacrifices to appease the sea demon.
Ogopogo actually bears the name of a popular dance song and even though there is a lack of scientific evidence, people periodically tell of strange things happening in the lake.
BILDENBERG GRAND EVENT ATTRACTS BLACK ALIEN DISC JUNE 10, 2013 ……… GROVE HOTEL, WATFORD UNITED KINGDOM
The reasons I waited two years before coming out with my story is that I thought my sighting was a common one. After searching online and looking at many of the pictures I realized my sighting can be absolutely counted in the top five per cent for clarity and for the fact that certainly what I saw couldn’t be confused with anything I knew. Let’s start from the beginning: at the time I was living in the North of Watford near a hotel called Grove and where from the sixth to the ninth of June 2013 it was held the Bilderberg group meeting, a closed-door gathering where prime ministers and tycoons meet every year. I had never seen before such a high level of security and hundreds of police men gathered from all around England to patrol the area. I remember an helicopter day and night flying over the area, even weeks before. A metallic fence was built all around the hotel and an entire road was closed, forcing the people living there to go to work with the passport. When the gathering finished all the security shutdown completely in just few hours. It was one of two days after the end of the Bilderberg that I had my sighting. It was about ten o’clock in the evening, and the bedroom’s window, facing the other way of the hotel, was open. A light brighter than the stars captured my attention and I started looking more closely to try to figure out what it was. Then the light became brighter and brighter, moving toward me, until I clearly recognized a disc shaped object completely black with the light all around. I couldn’t explain how the object could still be so dark, when it was completely sorrounded by a light. It was like if the center of the object was not emitting any lights and that didn’t make any sense to me. But even before thinking this, my first thought was: then they really exist! And they are really like they have always been described! I tried to reach out my phone with the eyes fixed on the object. But I didn’t want to loose any seconds of a so important moment, and then when it started moving away on my right I realized it was too late for a shoot. It drifted away slowly and it took more than 30 seconds to disappear. When it was closer, I didn’t hear any sounds coming from the object, but the details were so clear that if it had been an airplane I could have clearly seen the windows. However the shape was solid black and I could only recognize it because of the bright light around. It was like a disc with a sort of bump along the lower side and a dome on the top of it. Afterwards I thought it could have been a drone, considering that the Bilderberg was held the days before. I googled extensively about all the types of drones, but I couldn’t find any that could explain my sighting. I also couldn’t find any reports in the local news. However when I searched in Youtube words like “Bilderberg”, “Watford” and “ufo” I could find a video about drones. So it looked like drones were deployed over the area, but they were so different from what I saw that I simply ignored those videos. Now I often feel angry for the biggest error in my life: not having been able to take a picture of what I saw that day, and for not being able to talk about it without being considered crazy. I hope someone can give me some more information about similar sighting. I’m not interested in other types of ufos, lights, strange objects. I wanna only have some more context about that particular kind of disc shaped black objects. – MUFON CMS KENS NOTE: The Bilderberg Group is an annual private conference of approximately 120–150 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia and the media. About two thirds of the participants come from Europe and the rest from North America; one third from politics and government and the rest from other fields. In 2001, Denis Healey, a Bilderberg group founder and, for 30 years, a steering committee member, said: “To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn’t go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.

Aliens! Could humans really be alone in this expansive universe? And if we’re not, how come we’ve never made contact with other intelligent life?
Everyone’s thought about it; especially members of the scientific community.
Join Gabe as he presents some of the most popular theories that scientists use to rationalize their support or skepticism of the existence of aliens.
We may never know the answer to this age old question, but a little scientific thinking never hurt anybody!
Gabe Perez-Giz is an astrophysicist who studies various aspects of black hole physics. He received his PhD from Columbia University and then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at NYU’s Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics. He also mentors high school students in astronomical research projects at the American Museum of Natural History.
Note: It seems the scientific community finally takes it seriously, if we talking about the exists of intelligent life forms, given the fact that Mr. Gabe Perez-Giz has openend his YouTube account just two weeks ago, on February 9, 2015, posted only two videos resulting in 4140 subscribers and 170,000 views so far.. Not a bad result for someone who uploaded his first video on February 11, 2015.
I could be wrong, but I wonder if there is more behind the opening of this YouTube account than just to spread presentations of some of the most popular theories that scientists use to rationalize their support or skepticism of the existence of aliens.
Host: George Knapp Guests: Jacques F. Vallee, Ray Stanford Date: 22nd February 2015
Over two decades ago, eminent scientist Jacques Vallee wrote a provocative book about UFO cases, folklore, and certain unexplained phenomena. He joined George Knapp in the first half to discuss that original groundbreaking work Passport to Magonia, which changed our understanding of the UFO phenomenon by connecting documents and data from earlier centuries that related to incidents in the modern era. Among the numerous parallels between UFOs, folklore, and religious traditions were tales of fairies, elves, leprechauns, apparitions, and strange creatures.
In Celtic regions, witnesses described seeing fairies who were accompanied by strange oval objects from the sky, and these beings were also known for abducting people– not unlike modern reports of alien abduction, he pointed out. A ninth century account from the Archbishop of Lyon, France dealt with three people who were said to emerge from a flying ship– villagers thought they came from a magical land called Magonia that was beyond the clouds. Vallee spoke of how UFO phenomena seems to straddle different layers of reality, and what witnesses actually observe may be modulated by their individual consciousness. People in Asia view the phenomenon as part of nature, and the alien beings hailing from a different plane, rather than another planet, he added.
In the latter half, Ray Stanford, who has been investigating the Socorro UFO landing for over 50 years, shared not only the details he presented in his seminal 1970s book Socorro ‘Saucer’ in a Pentagon Pantry, but further evidence in the case. The incident took place in April 1964, when Lonnie Zamora, a New Mexico policeman, heard a loud roar and saw a descending object in the sky in flames. In his patrol car, he tracked the craft to where it had landed in a ravine on the outskirts of Socorro, and saw two small beings beside it. The beings were the size of children, and dressed in something like white coveralls, Zamora reported. Several other witnesses described seeing an object in the sky, and landing traces and soil were subsequently tested.
Stanford made numerous trips to Socorro, to examine the scene and interview Zamora and other witnesses. He found Zamora to be highly credible in his accounts, and famed ufologist J. Allen Hynek also came to town to investigate. Directly after the incident other patrolmen arrived on the scene, including one who took photos– he was asked to turn over the images to the government, and some of the photos reportedly showed the effects of radiation, Stanford detailed. Zamora made a drawing of the red insignia he saw on the side of the craft, yet the military ended up changing the look of the drawing to deliberately obfuscate the public, in order to determine if future sightings might be copycat hoaxes, Stanford explained. He further revealed that he has acquired an actual photo of the craft, which he’s hoping to use for publication in an updated book on the Socorro incident.
Hubble sees pulverised planet in Beta Pictoris debris disc?
Hubble sees pulverised planet in Beta Pictoris debris disc?
Space Telescope Science Institute Press Release
The bottom image is the most detailed picture to date of a large, edge-on, gas-and-dust disc encircling the 20-million-year-old star Beta Pictoris. The new visible-light Hubble image traces the disc to within about 650 million miles of the star (which is inside the radius of Saturn’s orbit about the Sun). When comparing the latest images to Hubble images taken in 1997 (top), astronomers find that the disc’s dust distribution has barely changed over 15 years despite the fact that the entire structure is orbiting the star like a carousel. Note: he images have been artificially coloured to bring out detail in the disc’s structure and a coronagraph blocks out the glare of the central star so that the disc can be seen.

Beta Pictoris remains the only directly imaged debris disc that has a giant planet (discovered in 2009). Because the orbital period is comparatively short (estimated to be between 18 and 22 years), astronomers can see large motion in just a few years. This allows scientists to study how the Beta Pictoris disc is distorted by the presence of a massive planet embedded within the disc.
The new visible-light Hubble image traces the disc in closer to the star to within about 650 million miles of the star (which is inside the radius of Saturn’s orbit about the Sun).
“Some computer simulations predicted a complicated structure for the inner disc due to the gravitational pull by the short-period giant planet. The new images reveal the inner disc and confirm the predicted structures. This finding validates models, which will help us to deduce the presence of other exoplanets in other discs,” said Daniel Apai of the University of Arizona. The gas-giant planet in the Beta Pictoris system was directly imaged in infrared light by the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope six years ago.
When comparing the latest Hubble images to Hubble images taken in 1997, astronomers find that the disc’s dust distribution has barely changed over 15 years despite the fact that the entire structure is orbiting the star like a carousel. This means the disc’s structure is smoothly continuous in the direction of its rotation on the timescale, roughly, of the accompanying planet’s orbital period.
In 1984 Beta Pictoris was the very first star discovered to host a bright disc of light-scattering circumstellar dust and debris. Ever since then Beta Pictoris has been an object of intensive scrutiny with Hubble and with ground-based telescopes. Hubble spectroscopic observations in 1991 found evidence for extrasolar comets frequently falling into the star.
The disc is easily seen because it is tilted edge-on and is especially bright due to a very large amount of starlight-scattering dust. What’s more, Beta Pictoris is closer to Earth (63 light-years) than most of the other known disc systems.
Though nearly all of the approximately two-dozen known light-scattering circumstellar discs have been viewed by Hubble to date, Beta Pictoris is the first and best example of what a young planetary system looks like, say researchers.
One thing astronomers have recently learned about circumstellar debris discs is that their structure, and amount of dust, is incredibly diverse and may be related to the locations and masses of planets in those systems. “The Beta Pictoris disc is the prototype for circumstellar debris systems, but it may not be a good archetype,” said co-author Glenn Schneider of the University of Arizona.
For one thing the Beta Pictoris disc is exceptionally dusty. This may be due to recent major collisions among unseen planet-size and asteroid-size bodies embedded within it. In particular, a bright lobe of dust and gas on the southwestern side of the disc may be the result of the pulverisation of a Mars-size body in a giant collision.
This colour composite image shows a curious asymmetry in the disc’s dust and gas distribution. This may be due to a planetary collision within the disc, which may have pulverised the bodies. Radio data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) shows the dust (1.3 millimeter is coloured green) and carbon monoxide gas (coloured red). Image credit: NASA, ESA, D. Apai and G. Schneider (University of Arizona), NRAO and W.R.F. Dent (ALMA, Santiago, Chile)
Both the 1997 and 2012 images were taken in visible light with Hubble’s Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph in its coronagraphic imaging mode. A coronagraph blocks out the glare of the central star so that the disc can be seen.
For a detailed discussion of Beta Pictoris, view the following recording of the February 19th Hubble Hangout event:
As I was looking through live cams I came across this one in Italy. A pillar-like UFO has been hovering there nightly. I like to focus on Italy because of the Friendship Case. I have been watching this UFO for several years and believe it to be parked and cloaked. The cloak is visible due to the infrared lights connected to the live cam. To the human eye, this UFO is invisible. Today its less focused, but I have seen it with a fine metal skin before on this cam. Skeptics will say its a reflection due to the security lights below. I say its not. If it were, then it would not exist in the early morning when the sun begins to rise, but it is...for a little while and then disappears. If its there when the lights are off, then that is proof the lights are not the cause. Clearly a local Italian in the area has parked his cloaked ship above his home assuming no human would be intelligent enough to know its there. They were mistaken. SCW
