Amazing Photo Of A Triangle Craft Over Valley Forge Pennsylvania
Amazing Photo Of A Triangle Craft Over Valley Forge Pennsylvania
AMAZING PHOTO OF A TRIANGLE CRAFT OVER VALLEY FORGE PENNSYLVANIA JANUARY 7, 2015
VALLEY FORGE PENNSYLVANIA On this particular evening I was driving home from work.
Because of where I live, I always take Gulph Rd through Valley Forge Park to and from work. I was driving NW on Gulph Rd towards Phoenixville away from King of Prussia, when I noticed three very bright lights just over the tree line in the distance (I think I noticed them just about the time I passed the Washington Memorial Chapel).
The lights were side by side. At first glance it looked to be an airplane of some sort. But as I drove closer I realized whatever it was, was too bright and too low to be a plane.
I actually started to think that maybe they had built a tower in the park with lights at the top of it, but I knew that wasn’t logical because I would have seen this tower/monument by now. I also started to realize that whatever it was, wasn’t stationary.
It was moving, but slowly. When I was finally back on a straight part of the road, I had decided that this was just too weird and started snapping pictures. As I got closer it was more apparent to me that this wasn’t a plane or a helicopter.
I considered pulling over, but had someone behind me. It was also very dark and 17 degrees outside. But after my car had finally passed the lights (I couldn’t describe anything beyond that because of how bright the three lights were) I decided to look back at it out my driver side window.
This is when I realized that it was literally just above the tree line and shaped like a Triangle. Once I was past the lights I could distinguish the shape vividly.
After my experience I was a little shaken up. I called my mom, who thought I was just pulling her leg. But after I sent her the pictures, she was convinced. She even went as far as to research sightings in Valley Forge. She came up with two interesting stories.
One, was of George Washington, who had reported witnessing a UFO in the now park. And a few years ago someone else had reported a very similar story to mine, which made me feel less crazy. I have been living in the area for almost 5 years now, and I visit the park often.
I know this park in and out. I know what the planes flying overhead look like. And I’ve seen my fair share of helicopters and drones. This to me was just so weird and unexplainable.
It took me almost a week to even send in my story.
I’m open-minded about unexplainable events, but I personally do not come to conclusions without thinking about it first.
Even if this was totally explainable, it was still weird and definitely a story worth sharing.
This case is under investigation by MUFON Pennsylvania investigators.
Wetenschap Het was een populaire theorie maar onderzoek met het hoofdzakelijk Belgische Rosina-instrument op de Europese komeetsonde Rosetta toonde aan dat het niet (exclusief) kometen zijn die water naar onze planeet hebben gebracht. Dat zei Johan De Keyser van het Belgisch Instituut voor Ruimte-Aëronomie (BIRA) vandaag in het Planetarium van Brussel bij de voorstelling van de eerste missieresultaten.
De Rosetta is op 2 maart 2004 met een Ariane-5 draagraket gelanceerd en bereikte de komeet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in augustus vorig jaar. Later kon de meegevoerde lander Philae bij wijze van wereldprimeur landen op het hemellichaam dat net als andere kometen geacht wordt meer te leren over het ontstaan van ons zonnestelsel.
Eén van de instrumenten op Rosetta is de Rosina-massaspectrometer die hoofdzakelijk van Belgische makelij is en die voor de studie van de atmosfeer van de komeet dient. Het BIRA in Ukkel werkte daarvoor samen met de bedrijven IMEC (Leuven) en OIP (Oudenaarde).
Rosina leerde dat de hoeveelheid gas, die (aan 500 meter per seconde) ontsnapt uit de nucleus van de "staartster", varieert in de tijd, met name naargelang de rotatie (in 12,5 uur) van het hemellichaam rondom zijn eigen as, met een temperatuur van min 170 bij nacht en min 100 graden per dag. Ook de locatie op de komeet speelt een rol in die variatie.
Uit de eerste resultaten blijkt dat de komeetkern maar een losse samenhang van materiaal is, met een dichtheid van 1/2 gram per kubieke centimeter
Maar ook de verhouding van de uitgestoten relatieve hoeveelheden H2O (water), koolstof (CO) en koolstofdioxide (CO2) als belangrijkste bestanddelen van de atmosfeer varieert, wat - ook dankzij metingen van het MIRO-instrument - terug te voeren is naar de samenstelling van het komeetoppervlak.
Inzake de bestanddelen van de atmosfeer stelde Rosina een massabereik van 18,98 tot 19,05 ame vast, met dus een gemiddelde van zowat 19. Dit is onder andere terug te voeren tot HDO (deuterium), een zwaardere vorm van water. Maar gezien het H2O van onze oceanen dominant aanwezig is bij een massa van 18 ame kan het dus niet dat (alleen maar) kometen water naar de Aarde hebben gebracht, zo luidt een uiterst belangrijke conclusie van het onderzoek van 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
Voorts is voor het eerst de acceleratie van het ïoniseren (elektrisch geladen maken) van de neutrale gassen gemeten.
De uitgestoten stofdeeltjes zijn blijkbaar maar een losse aggregatie. Overigens is ook de komeetkern maar een losse samenhang van materiaal, met een dichtheid van 1/2 gram per kubieke centimeter. Maar verbazend genoeg lijkt er ook stof in de buurt te blijven en lijkt het zelfs rond de nucleus te draaien.
Sommige wetenschappers zitten dankzij Rosetta met de handen in het haar, want er blijkt een breuk of barst tussen de twee delen te zijn. Wat dit is en of dit nog evolueert, is niet geweten.

UFO neergestort in Canada? ( update+ video )
UFO neergestort in Canada? ( update+ video )
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.
Update: 27 februari 2015
We zijn nu enkele dagen verder na de vermeende crash van een UFO in het Canadese Lake Winnipeg.
We ontvingen een aantal reacties, waarvan de volgende heel interessant is omdat er op meerdere plaatsen diezelfde avond vreemde lichten zijn waargenomen.
Met enige verbazing de zogenaamde verklaringen gelezen van het Amerikaanse leger over de ufo.
Het word nog interessanter: in 10 staten, van Arizona tot Alberta word dezelfde nacht ook een vreemd licht gezien. Ook met foto's erbij.
De verklaring was: een ruimtesonde van China teruggekomen en uiteengevallen, EN een neergestorte meteoriet.. Vijf foto's, waarvan op de laatste inderdaad een meteoriet (groen) te zien is.
Maar hoe geloofwaardig is het dat in EEN nacht
1-een meteoriet neerstort 2- een ruimtesonde neerstort 3-het leger oefende met een vliegtuig op een plek waar later 'iets' is neergestort??
Allemaal komen ze uit om en nabij dezelfde richting! Lijkt er meer op dat gezien de enorme aantallen mensen die iets zagen ze niet de waarheid willen vertellen.
Na wat navraag te hebben gedaan stond de ISS Live Stream ook op blauw scherm toen. Geen idee waar die op dat moment vloog, maar dat lijkt bijna niet meer toeval te noemen allemaal.. Ook vreemd is dat er bijna niks over vermeld word op andere sites/kranten/tv's.. Wat denken jullie??
Navolgend een voorbeeld van wat sommige mensen in de lucht zagen.
Volgens een andere lezer zou de foto die hierna volgt de bewuste opname zijn die men uit alle macht probeert te onderdrukken:
Dan is er nog de volgende video waarvan iemand zegt dat de neerstortende UFO is gefilmd door een getuige. Dit is te zien op ongeveer een minuut in de video.
We zijn uiteindelijk nog niet veel wijzer geworden, behalve dat de lichten op meerdere plaatsen zijn waargenomen.
Het probleem blijft dat het aangeboden materiaal niet op echtheid kan worden geverifiëerd.
We blijven optimistisch en hopen dat er alsnog een aantal getuigen die na te trekken zijn naar voren komen.
Origineel artikel: 24 februari 2015
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.
The reporting witness was 9 years old at the time she saw a black, vertical, rectangle hovering above, just south of where she and her cousin stood. Pictured: Markham, Ontario, Canada. (Credit: Google)
A Canadian witness at Markham, Ontario, recalled a daylight sighting from the spring of 1987 where an object described as a “black door” hovered in the sky, according to testimony in Case 63531 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness was a 9-year-old in 1987 playing with her cousin in a field behind her home during daylight hours with a clear sky.
“I looked up at the sky and saw a black, vertical, rectangle hovering above, just south of where we stood,” the witness stated. “I remember looking over at my cousin who was also staring at it and asked her if she saw it too. She said yes.”
The witness described the object.
“We both thought it looked like a black door or doorway. We stared at it for several minutes waiting to see what would happen. It barely moved, although it did appear to be shaking or vibrating slightly.”

The witnesses’ mother called from their backyard asking the kids to come inside for dinner.
“We left the field and the ‘black door’ and went back to my house. We never discussed it with my parents and I’ve never seen anything like it since.”
The witness is hoping someone has a similar incident to share.
“The reason why I decided to share my story is because I want to know if anyone else has a similar story to mine or can shed some light on what we saw. Recently I asked my cousin if she remembered what we saw in the field behind my house when we were kids. She responded immediately saying, ‘Do you mean the door in the sky? I’ll never forget it!’”
The witness said the black rectangle was hovering between 75-100 yards above the ground.
The object was shaped like a door and hovered between 75 and 100 yards above the ground. Pictured: Markham, Ontario, Canada. (Credit: Google)
Markham is a city in the Regional Municipality of York, lies within the Greater Toronto Area of Southern Ontario, Canada, population 301,709.

UFO Sightings and Videos: Are They Fake or Genuine?
UFO Sightings and Videos: Are They Fake or Genuine?
Extraterrestrials have been identified through strange shadows in the sky, flying saucers, or even unusual marks left on fields. Countless of UFO sightings have been reported by different individuals around the world over the years. Unidentified flying objects or UFOs have been involved in many conspiracies and controversies. Nobody can actually prove how true they are since nearly all traces disappear throughout the course of history. While many would find UFO and alien stories true, many others are still in doubt. So, how will you know if you see something extraordinary? Here are some incidences that will serve as your reference.
McMinnville UFO (Oregon)
A UFO appeared on the lens of the camera from an Oregon farmer couple in May 1950. According to wife Evelyn Trent, she first saw the object before it sped off out of their view. Evelyn described the object as a silvery, metallic disk.
Most UFO sightings happened near US Air Force bases, so it has been many times mentioned in UFO sighting reports. Perhaps, the most popular until today is still the Edward’s Air Force Base Sighting. An astronaut, at the same time a test pilot, filmed a classic saucer. The UFO was a silver and a smooth saucer that was approximately 30 feet in diameter. It had 3 legs that believed to be a landing gear. However, as the witness was about to submit the photo, it apparently disappeared.
A group of friends claimed they saw glowing, diamond shaped object that was about the size of a water tower blocking their way. Known as the Piney Woods Sighting, it brought emotional, mental and physical trauma to the group due to chemical poisoning in the area. They claimed to have seen helicopters escorting the UFO away from them.
Some have attributed these incidences to government conspiracy, but nobody knows what these occurrences tell, and one can only guess.
An unknown radio signal, which may have come from a black hole, colliding neutron stars (or – for those who ‘believe’ – alien life), has been picked up by astronomers live for the first time ever. Its origins remain mysterious.
The fast radio bursts are quick, bright flashes of radio waves that last only milliseconds, but still emit as much energy as the sun in an entire day.
This is the first time that these radio waves have been spotted live. The first burst was picked up in 2007 by sifting through old data at the Parkes Radio Telescope in Eastern Australia. Only seven others have been seen since then.
This time, the mysterious waves were picked with the use of 12 telescopes in Australia, Chile, Germany, Hawaii, India, California and the Canary Islands.
Because they observed the radio waves in real time, they were also able to try and find other wavelengths, like x-rays or infrared to find out their source…but remained unable to find anything.
“The fact that we did not see light in other wavelengths eliminates a number of astronomical phenomena that are associated with violent events such as gamma-ray bursts from exploding stars and supernovae, which were otherwise candidates for the burst,” Daniele Malesani, of the University of Copenhagen, told Astronomy Magazine.
The radio waves were polarized, which suggests that they were near an object with a large magnetic field.
“The theories are now that the radio wave burst might be linked to a very compact type of object – such as neutron stars or black holes – and the bursts could be connected to collisions or ‘star quakes,’ he added.
The radio signals originated up to 5.5 billion light-years away, from outside our Milky Way Galaxy and that they were caught by astronomers possibly up to a decade after they happened.
The catch took place in May 2014, but the results of the study got published this week in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
No one knows where exactly such waves come from, or what causes them. Astronomers have postulated that the mysterious signals might be emitted by exploding stars or supernovas; a collision of binary neutron stars or binary white dwarf star could also be a source.
One more possible reason could be a blitzar – a supermassive neutron star that should have become a black hole, but is spinning so fast that it is temporarily prevented from collapsing.
“We found out what it wasn’t. The burst could have hurled out as much energy in a few milliseconds as the Sun does in an entire day. But the fact that we did not see light in other wavelengths eliminates a number of astronomical phenomena that are associated with violent events such as gamma-ray bursts from exploding stars and supernovae, which were otherwise candidates for the burst,” Malesani said.
Having set “the trap,” the team is now waiting to catch another burst and maybe get some answers to the mystery.
There are a number of things that come to mind when I posted this article. Could these radio waves be coming from an intelligent life form? Is it possible that they’re being emitted from Saturn (aka Satan in astrotheology)? Do they have anything to do with the collapse of the matrix? Are they possibly distress signals from the ongoing Orion Wars, signifying an end to universal tyranny?
One thing we can be sure of is that science çand the mainstream media will write this off as “nothing to see here”.
Humans should start sending messages to planets in habitable zones in the hope that alien life-forms might hear us, scientists have said.
Space experts at the Search for Extra Terrestrial Life (SETI) project said the time has come to stop passively listening for signs of intelligence in other worlds and actively start seeking contact.
Kepler Space Telescope captured tens of thousands of stars in the constellation of Cygnus and Lyra
SETI was founded 20 years ago to monitor the cosmos for signals of alien life and involves astrophysicists from institutions like Harvard University and the University of California. However as early 1960 scientists were scanning space for clues to other civilizations.
Douglas Vakoch, the Director of Interstellar Message Composition at the SETI Institute, said we should now start devising a message to send to planets which have recently been discovered in the "goldilocks zone" – areas of space where it is neither too hot nor too cold for life to exist.
Kepler-186f, the first validated Earth-size planet to orbit a distant star in the habitable zone
"For over a half century, scientists engaged in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence have sought evidence of the existence of other civilizations by searching for intentional radio signals," he said
"As we move into the next half century we should expand our strategies, so we are not only passively listening, but also transmitting intentional, information-rich signals.
"With recent detections of Earth-like planets in the habitable zones of other stars, we have natural targets for such transmission projects.
"We should repeatedly target a set of nearby stars over the course of several months or years.”
The Kepler Telescope
NASA’s Kepler Telescope has so far found more than 3,800 planets in habitable zones which could hold liquid water, and life. Experts say targeting them with a signal is the best hope of making contact with new worlds.
However the content of a message has been hotly debated. To find out what humans would like to say to aliens, SETI founded a site called Earth Speaks and asked people to devise an interstellar message.
The smallest-ever planet outside our solar system has been spotted by NASA's Kepler space telescope - a rocky planet similar in size to the Earth
While women tended to offer friendship, and even coffee and biscuits in their missives, men were more likely to talk about science and inquire about their civilisation. Overall the main theme was asking for help from aliens rather than seeking to impart the wisdom of Earth.
Mr Vakoch said humans have a "cosmic inferiority complex" and automatically assume that extra-terrestrials will be more technologically advanced than us and so have nothing to learn.
But he added: "Humankind has a range of experiences and insights that cannot be imagined by any other civilization.
"Though extraterrestrials may be more technologically advanced we are, they will never be more human. It’s the breadth of our human experience that we should be conveying in our interstellar messages."
The experts at SETI say that governments must start working together to devise the message. The equipment to send basic messages already exists and scientists say that reluctance ‘more political than technical.’
Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer and Director, Center for SETI research, said some people resisted the approach, fearing it could alert our presence to dangerous extra-terrestrial races.
"It’s very controversial,” he said, “There are some people who think this might be dangerous.
"The idea that you are somehow endangering Earth I don’t think holds any water because we have been broadcasting into space willy nilly since the Second World War – televisions, FM radio and radar.
"These signals have been going into space for 70-somethng years so they are quite far out and any society that could come to Earth and incinerate Belgium, if they think they deserve it, is fully capable of picking up these broadcasts.”
But he admits that it is a gamble whether visiting aliens will come in peace.
“Nobody knows if they are friendly or not,” he added.
“You could be optimistic and think they are all friendly or figure they are like ones in the movies and hellbent on destruction. I suspect there is a whole range.
“Earth has been sitting around for 4 billion years with life on it and nobody’s thought to destroy it.
“It may be they want to proseltyse. The other thing is that they are just interested in the culture – that’s what’s special about us. Maybe they are interested in rock ‘n’ roll. Maybe they want Cliff Richard.”
However American scientist and futurist David Brin believes it is a mistake to try and contact alien worlds.
"We are the youngest of all technological races in the cosmos, like an orphan child who suddenly finds herself wandering a strange jungle that’s quiet, too quiet,” he said.
"Perhaps you have the kind of personality that says: "What the heck! I might as well shout and see what happens!"
"That’s all very well if the only one you are putting at risk is yourself. But when that risk is also imposed upon our children -- all of humanity and our planet – is it too much to ask that we discuss it first?"
The scientists were speaking at the annual Association for the Advancement of Science AAAS annual conference in San Jose.
Well...here we go again. Another round of pleas that our government disclose what they know about UFOs and extraterrestrial life. The political parties have started the process of whittling down their nominees for president...thus, the question of disclosure becomes a part of the rhetoric.
But, of course, some of us realize that it will never happen. Better stated, a true disclosure will never be offered to the public...unless it become so obvious that there really are non-terrestrial beings and advanced interstellar craft. Then an announcement of some kind may be forthcoming.
I found the following article this morning:
Push is on for 'comprehensive' extraterrestrial hearings on Capitol Hill
We’ve recently seen a drone crash a congressional hearing on drones, but what would happen if there was a hearing on extraterrestrial life?
Stephen Bassett, executive director of Paradigm Research Group and founder of the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee would like to find out.
While he’s pushed for congressional hearings on the topic in the past, Bassett is launching a new effort to overcome the “truth embargo” about the government’s involvement with alien life forms.
It comes in the form of “The Congressional Hearings Initiative.”
“Once this evidence is properly looked at, the way it should be, any reasonable person will come to the same conclusion,” Bassett told Roll Call.
Bassett is flooding approximately 180 members of Congress with meeting requests.
And if Basset gets his way, he doesn’t just want some skimpy meeting done for show.
“The goal is to get one of the committees to commit for comprehensive hearings,” Basset said. “Not three witnesses, come up [to] the Hill for half a day and give ’em a spiel. I’m talking about 25, 30, 35 witnesses, at least, testifying over a week, two weeks if possible. The reason is we’ve got those witnesses and the issue is not an issue that you can dispense with something trivial.”
Two people Bassett should get in his corner: John Podesta, President Barack Obama’s counselor, and former President Bill Clinton.
Considering Podesta’s comments that his “biggest failure” was not securing the disclosure of UFO files, it’s a natural fit.
And as far as Clinton, he did once tell Jimmy Kimmel that maybe the only way to united the world would be with an alien invasion.
So really, a congressional hearing on extraterrestrial life could also double as a world peace hearing.- Sun Times
So now we should have a former U.S. President and former White House insider 'helping' to find the truth. Mmm...are we to believe that President Clinton never reviewed any information pertaining to UFOs and alien beings while he was in office? The same question goes to John Podesta. Why didn't they make the effort to disclose the information at that time? Yeah, that's right...they wouldn't have dared chance it. I'm sorry that I seem cynical...but this shell-game, in my mind, is absurd.
During the 36th annual Kennedy Center Honors in 2013, President Barack Obama joked that he was making history for going where no president had gone before.
While honoring Oscar-winning actress Shirley MacLaine, who claims she has seen UFOs before, including "a mothership", Obama mentioned Area 51, a secret military installation north of Las Vegas that many in ufology believe is home to crashed flying saucers and alien bodies.
"Now, when you first become President, one of the questions that people ask you is, 'what's really going on in Area 51?'" Obama said. "When I wanted to know, I'd call Shirley MacLaine."
"I think I just became the first President to ever publicly mention Area 51," Obama added. "How's that, Shirley?"
I want to state that I truly believe that it is rational to assume that non-terrestrial beings exist and that these beings, in some capacity, may currently inhabit this planet. I have interviewed many experiencers and have seen some incredible evidence as an investigator. I'm totally convinced that humanity is being observed and manipulated by these highly advanced species...a process that has continued for millennia. There has been speculation that our species is a hybrid of human and alien DNA. This may very well be true but it has yet to be to be confirmed scientifically. Then again, our DNA strain may be so ancient that distinct human and alien genes may be impossible to isolate. Nevertheless, this is not what I want to write about at this time.
Since the 1950’s, Hollywood has been producing movies that deal with UFOs and alien beings. Most of the early films were full of hokey costumed creatures, tinfoil covered spacecraft and ridiculous story lines. On the other hand, we were given the impression that these aliens were either malevolent or were here to make sure the human species did not destroy itself.
Eventually, these B-movies science fiction thrillers evolved into high priced, computer enhanced mega productions that garnered millions of fans (ex. ‘Star Wars', ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, etc.). Technology provided instant gratification with the ability for anyone to pop in a tape, then later a DVD, into the player at their convenience. We just sit back, relax and watch in high definition (and sometimes in 3D) wondrous interstellar craft and amazing alien beings interact with our species, either in the present time or long into the future. The plots and stories are a multiplicity of good vs. evil...and everything in between.
Yes...I fell into the same trap. My interest in the UFO and extraterrestrial phenomenon was exacerbated by Hollywood’s magic and the ability to make me wonder if what they portrayed may actually be close to the truth. Whether we are just being entertained or witnessing a primer for what we can expect is the real question. In other words, are we being conditioned...programmed, brainwashed or however you want to phrase it. Are we being made ready for the inevitable?
In the summer of 1996, Twentieth Century Fox released the film Independence Day It projected the tale of an alien mothership with a mass one-fourth of that of the Moon, that entered Earth’s orbit and deployed several dozen saucer-shaped destroyer spacecraft. Each of these craft are 15 miles in width and positioned over some of Earth's major cities. These destroyer craft coordinate and eventually deploy a WMD capable of leveling large cities, as well as dispatching the inhabitants. The U.S. President and most of his Cabinet reach safety at Area 51 where they discover that the aliens had visited Earth previously. Three dead aliens, as well as a complete attack craft, had been recovered and were stored underground. At the end of the day, which happened to be July 4th, the humans figure out how to destroy the aliens worldwide and ultimately become independent again.
‘Independence Day’ was written/directed by Ronald Emmerich and written/produced Don Devlin, the same pair who had previously created the film Stargate Not only did ‘Independence Day’ rejuvenate the science fiction genre in films but visually introduced us to alien forces plotting a strategic and tangible invasion against earth.
In today’s ufology, it’s my opinion that a majority of witness comments and theories, certainly the most well-known accounts, are usually based on film narratives produced in the 90’s and beyond. There are popular notions that predate this period, namely famous UFO crashes and retrievals. But after some analysis it seems the bulk of the modern UFO lore can be traced to the last two decades, as well as to a handful of individuals.
I’m not implying that the UFO and extraterrestrial phenomenon is somehow a myth. As I stated earlier, I believe there are beings of equal or higher intelligence that not only travel to this planet or dimension, but may also inhabit it as well. On the other hand, these beings and their appearance, mannerisms and mode of transportation are most likely not the same as our popular culture describes them. I’ll admit that I am as guilty as others in using some of these popular descriptions when I post on my blog, though I try to avoid it as much as possible.
We can debate the arguments for disclosure and if the world is ready for that reality, but at the end of the day, those arguments are still based on assumptions that still lack credible evidence. Even if there was some evidence that supported the theories that the government had intimate knowledge of alien beings, disclosing the existence or visitation to our planet of non-human entities would certainly qualify as a ‘world after’ event (ex. ‘world after 9/11’). I think the government knows more about UFOs and alien beings than it publicly acknowledges, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are covering up secret agreements, underground bases, genetic hybridization or any knowledge of where extraterrestrials come from.
Those people who are interested and involved in the study of UFOs and extraterrestrials need to look at the logical evidence that is provided and not compare it to the computer generated flash and stories used for entertainment. As well, an absolute need for disclosure serves only as security for our conscience. Real disclosure will not be on human terms. Disclosure will be on their terms, the non-terrestrials, whether we can accept that or not...Lon
For all UFO enthusiast and UFOologists alike, today is the 73rd anniversary of the Battle Of Los Angeles otherwise known as The Great LA Air raid, which has gone down history as the most mysterious events of World War II.
Back in 1942 on this very day, Los Angeles was panic stricken by an invasion of what was believed to be a Japanese aircraft hovering over the city. The US army reacted by firing 1400 shells into the skies but to no avail, no aircraft was ever recovered.
Nobody really knew what they had just seen, there was no evidence of downed craft, there where some explanations that centred around weather balloons, but that would have been feasible if there had been material of that kind recovered.
The other explanation was that it could well have been ships of extraterrestrial origin. In the original Times photograph, the picture show glowing round spheres hovering int he night sky, the incident ignited the Americas first ever UFO sighting by mass public eyes, and this was even before the 1947 Roswell crash.
Nick Pope, Ex employee British Government's Ministry of Defence told Neon Nettle: "Believers think this was nothing short of an alien invasion, while skeptics say it was a combination of mass hysteria and war nerves, with people shooting at balloons. Whatever the truth, it shows that people can and do see and film UFOs not just in remote areas, but over major cities".
Amazingly, since the sighting all those years back, there is still no rational explanation. To mark the anniversary, the UFO world have been treated to a trailer for the UFO Diary today. The Full version of UFO Diary is set to be released soon and will feature special effects from Antony Vannapho (The Twilight Saga), Kiel Figgins (Avengers: Age of Ultron) Sean Dollins (Prometheus), Rini Sugianto (The Hunger Games), Delano Athias (Polis), Bren Wilson (Paradise Lost) and many others.
The question still remains, however, did a UFO(s) really hover above Los Angeles all those years ago? Its is something to think about.

The 1947 Kenneth Arnold UFO Sighting
The 1947 Kenneth Arnold UFO Sighting
Date: June 24, 1947 Location: Near Mt. Rainier, Washington, United States
The modern phenomena of UFOs and “flying saucers” began in Washington state on June 24, 1947, when Kenneth Arnold spotted nine mysterious, high-speed objects “flying like a saucer would” along the crest of the Cascade Range near Mount Rainier. His report made international headlines and triggered hundreds of similar accounts of “flying saucers” locally and across the nation.

Edward Ruppelt, The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects
Although a formal project for UFO investigation wasn't set up until September 1947, the Air Force had been vitally interested in UFO reports ever since June 24, 1947, the day Kenneth Arnold made the original UFO report.
You will not find any conventional history book that even so much as mentions that on this date the human race first became aware of a phenomenon that could well be the most important discovery of the last century, or even in the history of mankind: the presence of "Other Intelligences" (Non-Human Intelligence). This document, the "ultimate Arnold" history and analysis, is an edited and updated version of my presentation at the 1997 MUFON Symposium.
The following story of what I observed over the Cascade mountains, as impossible as it may seem, is positively true. I never asked nor wanted any notoriety for just accidentally being in the right spot at the right time to observe what I did. R
In the Skeptics UFO Newsletter (SKUFON), #46 of July 1997 Philip Klass has proposed, in conjunction with Keay Davidson, a new explanation for the flying saucer sighting by Kenneth Arnold. One wonders why it took 50 years for this explanation to be proposed. R
The June 24, 1947 sighting by private pilot Kenneth Arnold was not really the first recorded UFO sighting. However, it was the first sighting to be publicly reported and it attracted worldwide interest. It also attracted many more than its share of explanations.
Almost three years after the famous June 24, 1947 sighting in the Cascades of the state of Washington, Edward R. Murrow engaged the pilot/witness Kenneth Arnold in a conversation about his historic experience. Portions of that conversation are reproduced here in an exact transcript of the broadcast as it was heard nationwide on the evening of April 7, 1950.
The 50th anniversary of the flying saucer phenomenon is upon us, and thoughts time-warp back to the case that started it all, Kenneth Arnold's sighting of nine objects speeding by Mount Rainier on a sunny June afternoon. R
Funny how your life can get turned upside down just because you see something. Kenneth Arnold's story is the story of a pretty straight guy. He was an Eagle Scout when he was a teen-ager. He worked for the Red Cross. He was an All-State football player in high school, with hopes of being a college star until a knee injury cut his football career short.
After college, Arnold became a salesman and learned to fly, combining the two by flying from small town to small town selling fire control equipment, eventually owning the Great Western Fire Control Supply Company. He was a member of the Sheriff's "aerial posse"of Ada County, Idaho, he was a relief U.S. Marshall, and he sometimes flew prisoners to the Federal Penitentiary. Flying his light plane, a Callair, was the basis of his livelihood.
In other words, he was the perfect UFO witness: a solid citizen, honest and trustworthy, married, with two daughters.
On June 24, 1947, he was returning home from a business trip when he made a detour into the Yakima, Washington area to help in an aerial search for a missing C-46 marine transport plane that was believed to have gone down in the area.
At around 3:00 in the afternoon, he was flying at about 9,000 feet, near Mount Rainier, when a flash of light caught his eye. He turned and saw a procession of nine very strange objects flying from north to south in front of his plane. They were flat and rather heel-shaped, very shiny, and they moved erratically, like a "saucer would if you skipped it across water." You can see Arnold's drawing of what he saw here. Arnold estimated their size at about two-thirds that of a DC-4, and he calculated their speed at over 1500 mph by timing their travel between two mountain peaks of known distance.
When he arrived at Yakima, Washington, Arnold told several other pilots about his sighting. The consensus among them was that it was some type of military "secret weapon". However, Arnold would later find that the U.S. military was as mystified by the objects as he himself was.
In Pendleton, Oregon, Arnold went to make a report to the FBI, but the local office was closed, so he talked to the editor of the East Oregonian newspaper instead and it was the editor who put the story on the newswires. Because of Arnold's background and reliability as a witness, the story got wide circulation. Here's Arnold's report in his own words.
What did Arnold see? Skeptics said everything from clouds to blowing snow on the mountain, to droplets of water on his airplane window. Here Martin Kottmeter shoots down some of the early theories of what Arnold saw. More recent explanations include Phil Klass' meteorite fragments and James Easton's white pelicans.
The June sighting and the resulting hoopla were not the end of Arnold's association with UFOs. On July 5th, 1947, Arnold was introduced to Captain E. J. Smith, who, along with his co-pilot and a stewardess, had seen a formation of UFOs over Emmett, Idaho. They hit it off well and became good friends.
In the middle of July, Arnold received a letter from Raymond Palmer, editor of the pulp magazine Amazing Stories. Arnold didn't know who Palmer was, since he didn't read the pulps. Palmer wanted Arnold to write down his experiences for publication in the magazine and he offered to pay. Arnold didn't particularly care about the money and sent Palmer a copy of what he had already told the newspapers and the Army Air Corps.
Later in July, a couple of Army Air Force intelligence officers named Lt. Frank M. Brown and Capt. William Davidson had a friendly meeting with Arnold. He gave them an account of his sighting and they asked him to report any further incidents to them. Lt. Brown filed a report giving his impression of Arnold's story. Arnold, Smith, Brown, Davidson, and Palmer were later to become involved in the Maury Island hoax.

The Hudson Valley Boomerang Sightings
The Hudson Valley Boomerang Sightings
Date: , 1981 Location: Hudson Valley, New York, United States
Between 1982 and 1995, more than seven thousand cases were investigated and documented by a team of investigators led by Philip J. Imbrogno, a high school science teacher and astronomer in Greenwich, Connecticut. The heaviest period was between the end of 1982 and 1986, when more than five thousand people reported seeing the object.

Summary: An overview of the Hudson Valley sightings by Bob Pratt, co-author of Night Siege (with J. Allen Hynek and Philip Imbrogno), one of the primary books on these sightings.
Huge triangular or V-shaped UFOs have been reported countless times throughout the world over the past thirty to forty years, with one of the most active areas being the Hudson River Valley just north of New York City.
Between 1982 and 1995, more than seven thousand cases were investigated and documented by a team of investigators led by Philip J. Imbrogno, a high school science teacher and astronomer in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The heaviest period was between the end of 1982 and 1986, when more than five thousand people reported seeing the object.
Sometimes called the “Westchester Boomerang” because some of the earliest reports came from Westchester County in New York State, it was huge and often flew close to the ground, so low that gray superstructure could be seen linking numerous multi-colored lights.
Numerous sightings were also reported in neighboring New York counties as well as in nearby Connecticut.
One awed witness, an IBM program manager, said: “If there is such a thing as a flying city, this was a flying city… It was huge.”
It was enormous, awesome and spectacular. It moved slowly and silently and was easily as big as a football field; some witnesses said as big as three football fields. That would make it anywhere from three hundred to nine hundred feet long, far larger than any aircraft manufactured in the world.
Thousands of people, many of them highly educated professionals, went on record as saying that the Boomerang was undeniably very real to them. The great majority of people interviewed had no previous interest in UFOs. They were taken completely by surprise.
FAA DENIED ANYTHING HAPPENED
Many witnesses were separated geographically and were unknown to each other at the time of the sightings. Police records show that countless residents phoned their local police stations in concern, and police officers themselves witnessed this strange spectacle.
From the nation's scientists, to whom these events should have been of breathtaking concern, nothing was heard.
Hundreds of people living in the affluent suburbs within commuting distance of one of the world's largest and most cosmopolitan cities were astonished, awestruck, and frightened by what they could only regard as a very bizarre event. But the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which monitors the air lanes through which the boomerang-shaped object flew repeatedly, persisted in denying its existence.
There may have been more than one object because several times sighting reports came in about the same time from towns some distance apart.
Witnesses came from all walks of life, including housewives, office workers, aircraft designers, truck drivers, construction workers, nurses, doctors, pilots, engineers, bookkeepers, technicians and scientists. Many skeptical police officers changed their minds when they saw the Boomerang themselves.
Many times it hovered or moved ever so slowly. Once, a man was able to jog underneath and keep up with it. At times it hovered or drifted very slowly over major expressways, causing traffic to come to a confused halt.
At other times it moved with incredible speed. One husband and wife said it was six stories tall and that it shot off to the far horizon and immediately came back to the same spot in barely a second.
One night, a policewoman sitting in her cruiser watching for speeders was astonished to see a string of white lights in a half-circle hover over her vehicle for twenty seconds. She was so surprised that she never thought to aim her radar gun at it.
UFO FLASHES LIGHT AT CROWD
In another town on another night, a policeman responding to a phone call found ten people standing watching a circle of flashing red, blue and green lights hovering about five hundred feet overhead. The object appeared to be three hundred feet wide.
The officer turned his spotlight on it – and the object immediately projected a brilliant flash of white light down on him and the spectators. Seconds later it shot off out of sight.
On the night of July 24, 1984, twelve security guards watched as a boomerang-shaped object hovered for more than ten minutes directly above one of the reactors of the Indian Point nuclear power plant. This is located on the Hudson River at Buchanan, twenty miles north of Manhattan.
It was so large that one officer had to pan a security camera on the plant’s roof 180 degrees to take in the whole object. Inside the security console, the computer that controlled all the security and communication systems shut down.
The incident was so shocking that the commander contacted a nearby National Guard unit and asked that a helicopter be sent to shoot the object down. Before the action could be carried out, the UFO moved away. Later, authorities denied anything happened.
During the unusually long period of sightings and encounters, numerous witnesses reported having had contact with some kind of extraterrestrial intelligence. More than sixty people said they had had been abducted, with women between the ages of twenty five and thirty representing the largest number of cases.
Philip Imbrogno reported that among witnesses who said they’d had multiple contacts, a very high percentage had B-negative type blood, although what the significance of that is has not yet be determined.
MEDIA REMAINS LARGELY SILENT
Initially, it was thought the Boomerang was seen primarily in the half dozen counties of New York and Connecticut immediately north of New York City. But later it was learned that the object had visited a much larger area to the west, north and east.
Sightings tapered off after the heavy 1982-1986 period but have never stopped. They have continued sporadically ever since.
The United States has perhaps the most extensive, sophisticated and freest mass communications system in the world. Trivial events are often flashed everywhere. Yet, news of this astounding happening was carried on only one network.
The American media has remained largely silent about this spectacular phenomenon, either from ignorance or, more likely, on purpose. Area newspapers, radio and television stations did carry stories, but there was little in the way of national coverage.
The authorities, for the most part, were no help. Some police departments were sympathetic to witnesses and investigators and some weren’t. A few were outright antagonistic.
The FAA denied anything unusual was happening in the skies over the Hudson Valley, even though some air traffic controllers privately acknowledged tracking unknown objects on radar.
Some authorities tried to explain the sightings as simply small planes flying in formation – even at times when strong winds were blowing – and even ultra lights, which rarely fly at night because it is too dangerous and are almost impossible to fly in formation.
Many people believed the Boomerang was a spaceship from another world. Wedo not know. We can only speculate.
It definitely was not a secret weapon, nor a hologram, nor a formation of planes, helicopters or blimps, nor, we believe, anything else man-made. There is no conventional explanation for the Hudson Valley UFO.
These investigations are described in two books, NIGHT SIEGE: The Hudson Valley UFO Sightings (Ballantine, 1987) by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Philip J. Imbrogno and Bob Pratt, NIGHT SIEGE Second Edition (Llewellyn, 1998), and CONTACT OF THE FIFTH KIND, by Philip J. Imbrogno and Marianne Horrigan (Llewellyn, 1997).

E.T. Encounters of the Human Kind with Richard Dolan
E.T. Encounters of the Human Kind with Richard Dolan
We’ve heard it many times – truth is stranger than fiction. But when trying to keep some semblance of normalcy and sanity in a world that continues to show us its more mysterious side, it might do us well to consider that truth includes a broad spectrum of experience, including possible interactions with human looking extraterrestrials.
Preeminent UFO researcher and historian Richard Dolan who’s painstaking research has culminated into several books, including UFOs and the National Security State, volumes 1 and 2 and A.D. – After Disclosure, took the time to depart from his “usual fare” and discuss some of the more perplexing and bizarre aspects to the UFO story. Except none of these incidents involve UFO’s per se, but rather E.T. encounters of the human kind.
During our “out of this world” conversation we discuss:
The bizarre nature of human looking E.T. encounters and the consistencies that exist throughout.
The telepathic link between these beings and those witnesses who can “hear” their thoughts.
The conspicuous though secretive nature of these beings.
Richard Dolan is one of the world’s leading researchers and writers on the subject of UFOs, and believes that they constitute the greatest mystery of our time.
He is the author of two volumes of history, UFOs and the National Security State, both ground-breaking works which together provide the most factually complete and accessible narrative of the UFO subject available anywhere. He also co-authored a speculative book about the future, A.D. After Disclosure, the first-ever analysis not only of how UFO secrecy might end, but of the all-important question: what happens next?
Richard’s latest work, UFOs for the 21st Century Mind, provides a fresh treatment of the entire subject. In it, he discusses the important sightings, the encounters, the politics, the cover-up, ancient aliens, the bizarre science, disclosure, and offers advice on being both critical and open-minded in today’s world. Like his previous three books, it asks fresh questions and offers new insights to further our understanding of the UFO mystery.
Richard hosts a weekly radio show, The Richard Dolan Show, on KGRA radio, is a frequent guest on Coast-to-Coast AM. He is currently featured on several television series and documentaries, including Ancient Aliens, Hangar One: The UFO Files and Close Encounters. For a longer list of his television appearances, see below.
Prior to his interest in UFOs, Richard completed his graduate work at the University of Rochester, where he studied U.S. Cold War strategy, European history, and international diplomacy. Before that, he had studied at Alfred University and Oxford University, and had been a finalist for a Rhodes scholarship.
But for the past two decades, Richard has been a dedicated student of all things related to UFOs, steadily expanding his interests within that topic from his initial focus on government documents and the cover-up. Now his interests include it all, from the deepest aspects of the coverup, to contact and abduction, the science behind the phenomenon, how the phenomenon has affected world culture, his theory of a breakaway civilization, the possible relationship of artificial intelligence and biotechnology to the UFO phenomenon, and the implications of the end of secrecy, that is, the world After Disclosure.
Today, there is no aspect of the phenomenon Richard won’t study. He continues to look forward to exploring this topic in all its depth, a topic he believes opens our doors of perception, challenging us to see the world differently and more clearly.
In addition to his research, Richard’s company, Richard Dolan Press, actively publishes innovative books by authors from around the world.

'Onmogelijk groot' zwart gat ontdekt - De Standaard.be
'Onmogelijk groot' zwart gat ontdekt - De Standaard.be

Foto: nd
Astronomen hebben in de ruimte een ‘onmogelijk groot zwart gat’ ontdekt. Het is het grootste zwarte gat dat ooit in ons heelal werd aangetroffen.
Het zwarte gat is zo groot, dat de massa ervan even groot is als die van twaalf miljard zonnen samen. Ter vergelijking: onze eigen Melkweg heeft een zwart gat met een massa van ‘slechts’ vier miljoen zonmassa’s.
Zo’n groot zwart gat relatief kort na de oerknal kan volgens de theorieën die nu heersen over het ontstaan van het universum, niet verklaard worden. ‘Hoe kan zo’n massief zwart gat zich zo vroeg in de geschiedenis van het universum gevormd hebben, in ons piepjong heelal?’, vragen de onderzoekers zich af. Een internationaal onderzoeksteam, onder leiding van de Universiteit van Peking en de Universiteit van Arizona, probeert nu meer te weten te komen over het grote zwarte gat.
Evenveel licht als 420 biljoen zonnen
Het zwarte gat bevindt zich in het centrum van een quasar, een extreem heldere wolk materiaal die in een zwart gat aan het verdwijnen is. Door de warmte die vrijkomt van het materiaal dat zich naar het zwarte gaat beweegt, komt er een enorme hoeveelheid licht vrij. Met optische telescopen lijkt zo’n quasar op een ster, maar het bevindt zich eigenlijk op nog een veel grotere afstand van miljarden lichtjaren. Door die grote afstand en de eindige snelheid van het licht, zien wij zo’n quasars zoals ze er miljarden jaren geleden, toen het heelal nog jonger was, uitzagen.
‘Deze quasar is uniek’, zegt Xiaohui Fan van het onderzoeksteam. ‘Je kan het beschouwen als de helderste vuurtoren in het verre heelal. Het licht dat de quasar geeft, zal ons meer leren over het vroegere universum.’ De quasar geeft evenveel licht als 420 biljoen zonnen samen.
UFO mania: Does The US Government Have Fleets Of UFOs? - The Solar Warden Project
UFO mania: Does The US Government Have Fleets Of UFOs? - The Solar Warden Project
There are, and have been for some time, claims by UFO disclosure supporters that there is in existence a fleet or fleets of human spaceships charged with monitoring alien traffic throughout our solar system and even defending our solar system in the event of an extraterrestrial attack.
Perhaps this is science fiction or the result of an overactive imagination. But some have said they’ve seen evidence of this alleged project, commonly called “Solar Warden.”
If Solar Warden is indeed real, it would require advanced technology several generations ahead of what our military currently uses on the battlefield. Some speculate that backwards engineered alien technology is responsible for the rapid development of these types of systems.
Astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon, is probably one of the most high-profile persons to have come forward regarding the existence of alien beings visiting Earth. He has addressed the topic in several interviews, saying there are indeed extraterrestrial civilizations beyond our solar system, they have indeed visited Earth, and the United States government may have collected and backwards engineered alien technology.
“I suspect that in the last 60 years or so, that there has been some back-engineering and the creation of this type of equipment, that is not nearly as sophisticated yet as what the apparent visitors have,” stated Dr. Mitchel during a Kerrang Radio interview on July 23, 2008.
In 2001, a hacker named Gary McKinnon used a series of clever techniques to hack several government computers, including and probably not limited to NASA and U.S. Navy computers. His original purpose for hacking U.S. computers was to seek out hidden data regarding the existence of free energy, or “zero-point” devices, he told Wired in a 2006 interview.
In his digital travels he allegedly uncovered an excel spreadsheet with a list of names and a heading of “non-terrestrial officers,” he told Wired.
Another document was listed as “fleet-to-fleet” transfers, according to a 2006 Project Camelot interview.
McKinnon was unable to cross reference the names with any U.S. Navy ships and believed these were off-world or “Space Marine,” type officers.
“If you look at DARPA [Defence Advanced Research and Projects Agency] literature at the moment and in the last few years it’s all about ‘space dominance,’ that is the final frontier,” McKinnon told Project Camelot. “So, I think it’s natural for them to want to control space and be developing a space-going force in secret, but I think most likely using technology reverse-engineered from E.T. [extraterrestrials].”
McKinnon told Wired he was in the process of viewing a UFO image on a NASA computer in Building 8 of the Johnson Space Center remotely when he was discovered. Some months later (in March 2002), authorities showed up on his doorstep in the U.K. Severe hacking charges were brought against him and he was facing about 70 years in prison and $2 million in fines.
But in the years following his discovery, the U.S. government extradition request stayed in limbo until it was eventually dropped. Project Camelot speculated that McKinnon was holding “ace-in-the-hole” information he gathered during his hacking journey that he may have held as leverage against his extradition. McKinnon wouldn’t comment on whether he had such information.
The name “Solar Warden” is a term that generically refers to the ultra-secret space fleet. It’s presently unclear where exactly the name originated. If the program does exist, it would require a tremendous amount of capital to construct its fleets.
Last year, the United States’ black budget for secret programs spanning dozens of agencies was $52.6 billion, according to the Washington Post. In 2011, the U.S. government spent approximately $718 billion more on national defense and international security. Of course, much of that went to fighting the war against terrorism.
However, if the government did decide to build a space fleet of exotic technology and design, the money could be utilized, especially if more than one nation is involved and funneling money into this program as postulated by some disclosure advocates.
Currently, the U.S. government’s various military branches all have their own space commands, such as the Air Force Space Command and the Navy’s Space and Naval Warfare System’s Command (SPAWAR). These departments have public websites and they help coordinate the military forces on the ground, in the air, and at sea. It is unclear if these departments may be linked with the so-called Solar Warden project, or if this alleged project would be separated into its own covert and isolated department.
They type of UFOs are seen little bit frequently over Earth. This particular shape has been recorded by astronauts. It looks like this as it enters the Earths atmosphere and then is will shoot out a probe from the front and sometimes many probes. They will sparkle like disco, three UFOs, balls ant then the giant trail we see will disappear until only the front of the glowing ship is there and it will disappear in the distance. Video UFOs here:
The discovery of a mysterious bright spot on Ceres has given rise to lots of speculation. And now we’ve learned something new: it has a friend. The second spot is not quite as bright, but still weirdly reflective compared to the rest of the dwarf planet. And one scientist has a possible explanation for both of these bright spots.
The bright spots are here revealed as two distinct features inside the crater. (Image enlarged and sepia colored)
From photographs taken on February 19, 2015 at 46,000 kilometers away (29,000 miles), Dawn can finally see that the mysterious bright spot on Ceres is in a basin, and has a smaller, dimmer companion. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
The latest round of photographs was taken by Dawn on February 19, 2015 when the spacecraft was still 46,000 kilometers away (29,000 miles) from the dwarf planet. It reveals not just the bright spot that has been provoking speculation for years, but now the imaging resolution is getting good enough to spot a second smaller and dimmer bright spot apparently in the same basin as the main attraction.
Could the lights be patches of ice, welling up from the interior of the biggest asteroid or there are other forces at work inside the crater?
Even as we discover more about Ceres, some mysteries only deepen.
Er kwamen al heel wat vreemde opnames voorbij, maar de volgende die enkele dagen geleden werden gemaakt in het Russische Vladivostok, zijn wel heel bijzonder.
Het begint met een nieuwsbericht in de Russische media waarin wordt gemeld dat er druk wordt gesproken op de sociale netwerken over wel zeer vreemde wolkenformaties.
Uiteraard gaan de berichten op die sociale media vergezeld van de nodige foto’s, zoals de volgende:
De vreemde patronen in de lucht verschenen rond lunchtijd en veel mensen liepen naar buiten en probeerden de bizarre patronen in de lucht vast te leggen op video of foto. De algemene tendens is natuurlijk dat men een vliegtuig verantwoordelijk acht voor de formatie van dergelijke wolken/chemtrails.
Wanneer je echter de volgende video bekijkt dan zoek je het antwoord niet in vliegtuigen, maar eerder in UFO’s. Na ongeveer 40 seconden zie je als het ware een hele ketting ongedefiniëerde objecten één voor één zichtbaar worden.
UFO mania: NASA Secrets Revealed - Alien Ruins on the Moon
UFO mania: NASA Secrets Revealed - Alien Ruins on the Moon
The former manager of the Data and Photo Control Department at NASA’s Lunar Receiving Laboratory during the manned Apollo Lunar Program, Ken Johnston, has released quite a number of sensational statements recently in the USA.
The specialist said that U.S. astronauts found ancient ruins of artificial origin and a previously unknown technology to control gravitation when then landed on the Moon. Astronauts took pictures of the objects that they found, but NASAordered Johnston to destroy the images.
Johnston did not follow the order.
He said that the U.S. government had been keeping this information a secret for 40 years.
Johnston's startling Apollo allegations have recently appeared in a new book, "Dark Mission - the Secret History of NASA," co-authored by former NASA consultant and CBS Science Advisor, Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara, an aerospace engineering consultant.
According to Kay Ferrari, JPL Director of the SSA Program (in a phone call to Johnston last week), it was Johnston "being quoted [as] criticizing NASA in Hoagland's new book, 'Dark Mission,'" that prompted her to ask for Johnston's resignation from the SSA Program.
When Johnston refused, citing First Amendment protections of free speech afforded all NASA employees, even those at JPL, Ferrari apparently decided to remove him arbitrarily from the SSA Program this week without cause.
The low quality pictures included in the book depict ruins of buildings, huge dome-like objects made of glass, stone towers and castled hanging in the air.
“I have nothing to lose. I have quarreled with NASA and I got fired,” Ken Johnston said.
Indeed, NASA believes that allegations of the ancient civilization found on the Moon are not serious. The authors of the controversial book also say that President John F. Kennedy, who launched the lunar race with the Soviet Union, actually intended to share extraterrestrial technologies with Moscow. Making a speech at the United Nations Organizations in September of 1963, Kennedy supposedly offered the USSR to organize a joint mission to the Moon.
Richard Hoagland believes that Washington’s interest in the Moon exploration that suddenly appeared after 30 years of silence is based on the lunar findings that the U.S. government has been keeping a secret for 40 years. Russia, China, Japan and even India have publicly announced their plans to work on the exploration of the Moon. The USA, Hoagland said, wants to be the first at this point.
In December NASA announced plans to build an international base on one of the poles of the Moon. The base is to be finished by 2024. Russia’s booster rocket maker, Energia, has a more ambitious program: to build a permanent manned base on the Moon by 2015.
Russia says the base will be built to develop the industrial production of helium-3. U.S. specialists prefer not to say anything specific on the matter. To crown it all, China launched its first satellite to the Moon on October 24.
China also intends to launch a lunar base and an unmanned space probe to the Moon by 2010.
