De werkelijke reden waarom de buitenaarsen hier zijn

Eén van de vragen die een groot deel van de mensheid bezighoudt is: “Wat zoeken de buitenaardsen hier eigenlijk op deze planeet en wat is hun agenda?”

Die is er namelijk wel degelijk en de reden is volkomen logisch, maar zal menigeen verbazen.

De meeste berichten die ons bereiken van buitenaardsen zijn afkomstig van moeilijk te verifiëren bronnen. Vooral de zogenaamde gechannelde berichten, waarbij ons allerlei buitenaardse boodschappen worden doorgegeven via een menselijk tussenpersoon.

Nu komt er via een blog een heel ander verhaal onze kant op aangaande de bedoeling van buitenaardsen. Niet gebaseerd op ongrijpbare gechannelde informatie, maar op gezond verstand en een beetje logisch nadenken.

Om de vraag te kunnen beantwoorden waarom de buitenaardsen hier zijn, is het van belang te begrijpen dat buitenaardsen niet de beperkingen kennen in tijd-ruimte zoals wij die ervaren.

Wanneer we accepteren dat buitenaardsen miljoenen lichtjaren ver door het universum kunnen reizen dan kunnen ze dit alleen doen wanneer ze de beperkingen van tijd-ruimte zoals wij die kennen, hebben overwonnen.

Met andere woorden, we moeten simpelweg accepteren dat buitenaardsen kunnen tijdreizen.

Daarmee hebben we dan ook direct de reden dat ze hier zijn. Tijdreizen is niet zo ver gezocht als het lijkt en buitenaardsen hebben dit waarschijnlijk al duizenden jaren lang onder de knie.

Hoewel buitenaardsen ons nu lichtjaren voor zijn op technologisch gebied, begrijpen ze ook dat er een tijd zal komen dat ook de mens de beperkingen van tijd-ruimte zal weten te overwinnen.

Waarom zou dat feit dat wij ook in staat zouden zijn om tijdreizen uit te voeren, zo’n grote bedreiging zijn voor de buitenaardsen?

Wat we niet moeten vergeten is dat de buitenaardsen ons al heel lang in de gaten houden. Duizenden jaren lang hebben ze alles wat wij doen al geobserveerd.

De dingen die ze hebben gezien, zijn ze nu niet echt vrolijk van geworden. Ze hebben gezien tot wat voor verschrikkelijke dingen de mensheid in staat is. Ze hebben gezien wat we elkaar aan doen. Ze hebben onze oorlogen gezien. Ze hebben gezien hoe wij volkomen maling hebben aan het welzijn van onze medemens en ze hebben gezien hoe wij in staat zijn om onze kinderen te laten verhongeren. Hoe flora en fauna gebukt gaan onder de mens.

Het is dus niet zo vreemd dat ze bang zijn voor ons.

Niet dat wij op dit moment in staat zouden zijn om welk buitenaards volk dan ook kwaad te doen, maar wat zal er gebeuren op het moment dat wij in staat zijn om de beperkingen van tijd-ruimte op te heffen?

Wat zal er gebeuren als de mens de mogelijkheid heeft om terug te gaan in de tijd . Tot een punt waarop ook de buitenaardse beschavingen nog niet ver waren ontwikkeld. Dan zouden wij met onze technologie ineens veel verder gevorderd zijn dan zij. We zouden ons dan in een positie bevinden waarbij we hen volledig konden vernietigen.

We zouden dit kunnen uithalen met ieder buitenaards ras. Het maakt niet uit hoever zij ons op dit moment op technologisch gebied voor zijn. We zouden ons in een positie bevinden waarin we hen compleet konden vernietigen.

Voor buitenaardsen zijn wij dan ook de luis in de pels en ze hebben ook alle redenen om angst voor ons te hebben.

Wat zou er echteer gebeuren als buitenaardse volken onderling in een ruzie terechtkwamen. Hoe zou dan de mogelijkheid om te kunnen tijdreizen dit conflict beïnvloeden? Zouden ze met elkaar gaan strijden in het nu of zouden beiden teruggaan in de tijd om zo te proberen voordeel over de ander te behalen?

Dit zou ongetwijfeld leiden tot een ramp. Twee volken of rassen die proberen terug te springen in de tijd om de ander te kunnen vernietigen.

Er zijn bij dit scenario eigenlijk maar twee mogelijke uitkomsten. Of de ene wint en vaagt de ander van de kaart, waardoor deze op zijn beurt wordt aangevallen door een alliantie van neutrale rassen om te voorkomen dat ze dit ook bij hen kunnen doen. Of beide vechtende partijen slagen erin om elkaar van de kaart vegen. In beide gevallen zijn er geen winnaars.

Dus kun je maar één keiharde conclusie trekken en dat is dat buitenaardsen zich niet bezighouden met oorlogvoeren. Voor hen is universele vrede een absolute noodzakelijkheid. Onze buitenaardse bezoekers willen dat wij dat keiharde gegeven van universele vrede ook adopteren.

Dat is de reden dat ze hier zijn. Dát is wat ze aan ons proberen over te brengen.

Als we nu even op een rijtje zetten wat we tot nu hebben: Buitenaardsen zijn in staat om te kunnen tijdreizen, waardoor ze eigenlijk nooit meer oorlog met een ander zullen voeren.

De buitenaardsen beseffen dat de mensheid op een goede of kwade dag dezelfde technologische ontwikkeling als hen zal bereiken en kunnen daardoor, als we niet drastisch ons gedrag veranderen, een serieuze bedreiging vormen voor andere volken in het universum.

Daarboven hebben de buitenaardsen al talloze keren laten zien dat wanneer nodig ze zullen ingrijpen binnen onze nucleaire technologie.

Het patroon is voor wie het wil zien duidelijk te herkennen: Vrede is een absolute universele noodzakelijkheid.

Dat is de boodschap. Daarom zijn ze hier. Ze zijn hier totdat ook wij deze universele vrede accepteren. Niet als een politieke boodschap, maar als fundament van ons bestaan. Bovenal moeten wij het onze buitenaardse bezoekers duidelijk maken dat dit is wat wij willen.

Wat moet je doen als je ook universele vrede wilt?

Mainstream media verantwoordelijk voor paddestoelwolken 

Dat er zulke grove leugens verkondigd kunnen worden door hoge regeringsfunctionarissen zonder ook maar één spatje bewijs voor wat betreft Rusland zou je doodsbang moeten maken.

Wat wij meemaken is een totaal gebrek aan respect voor de waarheid en menselijk leven door hoge regeringsfunctionarissen en de hoerige mainstream media.

Uiteraard zijn er ook in Amerika mensen die wel degelijk zien wat er allemaal gebeurt in naam van hun land en die ook van de daken schreeuwen om een einde te maken aan al de walgelijke propaganda.

Eén van die mensen is Paul Craig Roberts, voormalig Staatssecretaris van Financiën in Amerika.

Het volgende is wat hij schrijft:

Destijds waarschuwde de veiligheidsadviseur van George Bush, Condi Rice, de Amerikanen dat de massavernietigingswapens van Saddam Hoessein ervoor konden zorgen dat er paddenstoelwolken boven een Amerikaanse stad zou verschijnen. Een dergelijke dreiging bestond niet. Vandaag de dag bestaat er een andere dreiging voor alle Amerikaanse steden en de nationale veiligheidsadviseur ziet dit niet.

Deze dreiging is afkomstig uit Washington en komt voort uit de demonisering van Rusland en hun leiders.

Wolf Blitzer (CNN, 13 maart), gebruikte een nieuwsprogramma om een propagandavoorstelling de eter in te sturen die direct gekopiëerd lijkt uit het Derde Rijk of misschien uit 1984 van George Orwell.

In dit programma werd Rusland gepresenteerd als agressieve militaire bedreiging. Het scherm was gevuld met raketten die werden afgevuurd en een verzameling Amerikaanse generaals die dringend adviseerden om verregaande maatregelen te nemen tegen deze Russische bedreiging. Het programma van Blitzer is onderdeel van een geplande propagandacampagne om de Amerikanen voor te bereiden op een conflict met Rusland.

Het was zodanig onverantwoordelijke propaganda met zoveel overduidelijke leugens dat het duidelijk is dat, om dit als mediabedrijf zo naar buiten te brengen, er niemand hen ter verantwoording zal roepen voor het verspreiden van oorlogstaal.

De zogenaamde “mainstream media” is nu veranderd in een Ministerie van Propaganda.

Vergelijkbare propaganda wordt er verspreid in Engeland waar de Minister van Defensie, Michael Fallon, Rusland bestempelde tot een “werkelijk en aanwezig gevaar”. Amerikaanse en Europese troepen worden naar de Baltische staten gestuurd onder het voorwendsel dat Rusland zal gaan aanvallen.

Dat er zulke grove leugens uitgesproken kunnen worden door hoge regeringsfunctionarissen zonder ook maar één spatje bewijs, zou je doodsbang moeten maken. Wat wij meemaken is een totaal gebrek aan respect voor de waarheid en menselijk leven door hoge regeringsfunctionarissen en de hoerige media.

Deze propaganda drijft de wereld richting oorlog. De propaganda heeft het vertrouwen tussen de nucleaire grootmachten vernietigd en heeft de dreiging voor een nucleair Armageddon opnieuw leven ingeblazen. De Russische overheid ziet dat Washington en haar NAVO vazallen een niet bestaande Russische dreiging creëren. Het moge duidelijk zijn dat deze verzonnen dreiging de bedoeling heeft om Rusland kwaad te doen.

De propaganda van Washington zoals die door de hoerige media wordt verspreid is de meest onverantwoordelijke handeling in de menselijke geschiedenis. Reagan en Gorbatsjev slaagden erin om de dreiging van een nucleaire oorlog weg te nemen en dolgedraaide neoconservatieven en hun mediahoeren hebben het teruggebracht.

De propaganda-aanval van Washington op Rusland en Vladimir Poetin is hetzelfde als de aanval van Washingotn op Afghanistan en Osama bin Laden, Irak en Saddam Hoessein, Libië en Gaddafi. Betekent dit alles dat Washington van plan is om Rusland aan te vallen met een zogenaamde “pre-emptive” (als eerste) nucleaire aanslag?

Als dat zo is dan betekent dit het einde van de wereld. Het moge duidelijk zijn dat de dreiging voor Amerika en de gehele wereld in Washington zetelt en niet in Moskou. De dreiging is de dol- en doorgedraaide neoconservatieve ideologie van Amerikaanse wereldhegemonie, ondersteund door de ontembare hebzucht van Amerikaanse bedrijven om de natuurlijke hulpbronnen van de wereld te controleren.

Poetin begrijpt de ernst van de situatie en werkt hard om deze te verminderen, maar Washington maakt het onmogelijk om dit te doen. De prijs die Washington eist is dat Poetin de Krim moet overhandigen en de Russische Zwarte Zee basis, de bevolking in het oosten en zuiden van de Oekraïne in de steek laten en accepteren dat er NAVO aanwezigheid zal komen in de Oekraïne. Wat Washington eist is dat Rusland zich al bij voorbaat overgeeft.

In de CNN propaganda show vergat Wolf Blitzer te vertellen dat Duitse inlichtingendiensten de claims van Washington weerleggen en dat de Franse en Duitse overheid eindelijk beseffen dat ze daar volkomen gek zijn geworden en doen dan ook hun uiterste best om Washington ervan te weerhouden deze oorlog te ontketenen.

Washington en hun Engelse poedel zijn de hele 21e eeuw bezig geweest met het creëren van dood en verderf. Er zijn invasies geweest in 7 landen. Landen die zijn gebombardeerd of waar drones zijn gebruikt om “de democratie te verspreiden”.

Irak is vernietigd, net zoals Afghanistan, Libië en Somalië. Syrie ook bijna en zowel Pakistan als Jemen zijn politiek en sociaal gedestabiliseerd door de niet aflatende Amerikaanse luchtaanvallen.

De democratisch gekozen regeringen van de Oekraïne en Honduras zijn omver geworpen door Amerikaanse staatsgrepen. Venezuela is de volgende op het lijstje, met Bolivia, Ecuador, Argentinië en Brazilië die nog op hun beurt wachten.

Washington heeft de wereld 14 jaar lang wrede en onmenselijke oorlogen gegeven. Is dat niet genoeg kwaad? Moet Washington ons nog meer geven?

Washington en de hoerige pers hebben hun menselijkheid verloren. Ze zijn agenten van het kwaad geworden. Als er paddenstoelwolken verschijnen dan is dit de verantwoordelijkheid van Wolf Blitzer, CNN en de andere pershoeren die luid op de oorlogstrommel slaan.

Tot zover Paul Craig Robers. In hetzelfde rijtje als CNN past in ons land uiteraard het voormalig NSB spreekorgaan, de Telegraaf. Alles wat Roberts zegt over CNN is eveneens van toepassing op de Telegraaf. De hoerige pers die hun menselijkheid is verloren en die verantwoordelijk zijn voor de paddenstoelwolken die op deze manier ongetwijfeld zullen verschijnen.

An Amazing Collection Of UFOs And Extraterrestrials In Art History

March 16, 2015 - An unidentified flying object, often abbreviated UFO or U.F.O., is an unusual apparent anomaly in the sky that is not readily identifiable to the observer as any known object. Originally referred to popularly as “flying saucers” during the late 40’s, the term UFO became more widespread during the 50s at first in professional literature, but later in popular language. UFOs garnered considerable interest during the Cold War, an era associated with a heightened concern for national security.

Various studies, both governmental and civilian, have concluded that the phenomenon does not represent a threat to national security nor does it contain anything worthy of scientific pursuit, although there is disagreement. Culturally, the phenomenon has often been associated with extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and thus has become a popular theme in fiction.

	Location	Date / Years Ago	Comments
	Tanzania	29,000 years old	These are two cave paintings from Tanzania. Both areestimated to be up to 29,000 years old. The one on the left is locatedin Itolo and depicts several disc shaped objects.
			The other painting is from Kolo shows four entities surrounding a women. Notice also the entity looking down from inside some sort of box or object.
	France	17,000 – 15,000 BC	These two images are from France, the cave of “Pech Merle” near “Le Cabrerets” c.17,000 – 15,000 BC.The scene depicts a landscape full of wildlife togetherwith a number of saucer shaped objects. The objects seem totally out of context.
	Toro Muerto, Peru	12-14,000 years old	These two examples of rock art are from Toro Muerto, Peru 12-14,000 years old. Notice the beings have some sort of halo or covering over their heads. Also, in the right hand picture there is some sort of object left of the main being.
	Val Camonica, Italy	10,000 BC	This cave painting on the left is c.10,000 BC and is from Val Camonica, Italy. It appears to depict two beings in protective suits holding strange implements.
	Nepal	7,000 B.C.	7,000 B.C. – The Lolladoff plate (right), discovered in Nepal, appears to show a hovering disk-shaped object in the center and a small being, resembling an alien resembling an alien gray, beside it. The circular pattern is reminescent of the spiraling movement of consciousness – Golden Ratio – Sacred Geometry of creation.
	Tassili, Sahara Desert, North Africa	6000 BC	Two images c.6000 BC from Tassili, Sahara Desert, North Africa. Also notice the disk in the sky in left hand picture.
	Sego Canyon , Utah	5,500 BC	On the left, more strange looking figures (aliens) this time from Sego Canyon , Utah. Estimated up to 5,500 BC.
	Querato, Mexico	5,000 B.C.	This picture is a 7000 year old petroglyph discovered in the province of Querato, Mexico in 1966. You can see 4 figures with their arms outstretched below a large oval object radiating what appear to be beams of light.
	Iraq	5000-4500 BC	This photo on the left is of a number of reptilian entities found in Iraq. They are dated at 5000-4500 BC. They are housed in the British museum.
	Kiev	4,000 BC	This strange suited figure on the right was found in Kiev and I believe its dated to 4,000 BC.
	Mesopotamia	5000 BCE – 4000 BC	Figurines, Lizard-headed or Ubaid Style, clay, Ur (Ubaid culture), 5th millenium BCE, h:13.6 cm From the Ubaid – Southern Mesopotamian Period, 5000 BCE – 4000 BC. Found in Ur. The Ubaid culture succeeded the Halaf at the end of the 6th millenium BCE in southern Iraq, then spread throughout Mesopotamia. Ubaid culture is known for painted pottery; large houses of tripartite plan for extended families; and lizard-headed figurines of both male and female gender. Figurines such as the above examples are typical.The figure on the left holds a baby on her hip and suckles it. The figure on the righth as incised stretch marks on her abdomen. It has been suggested that the brown-painted dots and lines represent tatoos, and the clay pelletsscarring. It is unknown if the shape of the skulls represents actual head-binding.Similar Lizard-headed figurines have been found at Eridu.  Collon, Dominique. Ancient Near Eastern Art. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1995, pg 46.
	Kimberley, Australia	3,000 BC	These are images from Kimberley, Australia (approximately 5,000 years ago). They are Australian Aborigine cave paintings. Aboriginal myths incorporate the idea of “sky-beings”, with the Wandjina being among the most interesting to consider. The Wandjina have been preserved in a fascinating oral tradition and in a large collection of rock paintings scattered throughout the Kimberley region of northern Australia. The paintings have received all manner of interpretations from stylized representations of a pervasive myth system to naive “ancient astronaut” theories. It is however fascinating to see that the indigenous tribes viewed the Wandjina as “the spirit in the cloud.” Indeed, the unique painting style shows a logical sequence from human figures to stylised representations of clouds. This duality of anthropomorphic form and “clouds” is widespread in primitive cultures and finds an interesting parallel in the biblical accounts in “Exodus.”
		?	These petroglyphs were created thousands of years ago by ancient Indians in the American Southwest. According to Indian folklore, two objects collided high in the sky and one crash-landed in the region of Death Valley. Some men arrived (presumably in another ship) and spent some time repairing the damaged Craft and were observed by the local Indians. The two images below may possibly depict the ship (left) used by the men who came to repair the damaged craft. In comparing the two images, the one on the right seems to depict structural damage around the edges and the bottom. Could it be the one that allegedly crashed?
	Equador	?	These photos on the left depict figures found in Equador. Notice they appear to be wearing space suits. You can see a comparison photo with an Apollo astronaut.
	Egypt	2,600 BC	In Egypt there exists a star clock for the Precession of the Equinoxes and an electric light bulb that dates to 2600 BC. An electric battery was discovered in a rock carbon dated approximately 500,000 years ago.
	Jotuo	?	This is an artistic reproduction of a relief found in a labyrinth on the island Jotuo in the Toengt’ing lake. An expedition took place in 1957 (two years before an earthquake in that region). The expedition was led by professor Tsj’i Pen-Lai. They found various reliefs showing “humans” in strange clothes which looked like astronaut suits (hose like objects attached to the clothes). They also found a painting which apparently resembled the solar system. The third and fourth circle (planet) were connected with a line. Also there were ten planets (excluding the sun as planet).
	China	1400 A.D.	This is an old Chinese illustration from a fictional book entitled “Illustrated Survey of Weird Countries” (c.1400 A.D.) and had the following original caption: “Ji Gung Land: The people could make flying cars that travelled far with a suitable wind. In Tarng’s day (c.1700 B.C.), Ji Gung people flying a car on a westerley reached Yew Jo. Tarng dismantled their car so it could not be demonstrated to the people … Later an east wind came on which he had them fly the car back to their own country [5,000 km] west of our gateway.”
	Biblioteca, Vatican	700	This image depicts Mary at the tomb of Jesus. It is one of a series of images from the “Relinquary Box” which contains stones from holy sites of Palestine. Dated 6th-7th C. Located at Biblioteca, Vatican. Notice the dome shaped object above the tomb. If it is a building why is it hovering? Also, what is the round object on top?
	Japan	900	This illustration depicts a sighting of a burning wheel in the year 900 over Japan.
	Japan	1,000	The image on the left comes from the 10th Century Tibetan translation of the Sanskrit text “Prajnaparamita Sutra”, held at a Japanese museum. In the enlargement you can see two objects that look like hats, but why are they floating in mid air? also one of them appears to have port holes on it. Indian Vedic texts are full of descriptions of Vimanas. The Ramayana describes Vimanas as a double decked, circular or cylindrical aircraft with portholes and a dome. It flew with “the speed of the wind” and gave forth a “melodious sound”.
	Greece	1,200	The illustration on the left is entitled “The Birth of Christ” from a 12th century Greek manuscript “The Book of the Evangelists”. If you look to the right of the picture there two figures looking up at a semi-circular object with figures inside. The object appears to be shining a beam of light down onto the birth. One of the pair of observers is shielding his eyes, possibly the artist was trying to convey the brightness of the object.
	France	1,200	These images of two crusaders date from a 12th century manuscript ” Annales Laurissenses” (volumes/books about historical and religion events)and refer to a UFO sighting in the year 776, during the siege on Sigiburg castle, France. The Saxons besieged and surrounded the French people. They both were fighting when suddenly a group of discs (flaming shields) appeared hovering over the top of the church. It appeared to the Saxons that the French were protected by these objects and the Saxons fled.
	France	1,400	These two tapestries were created in the 14th century. Both depict the life of Mary. Hat shaped objects can be clearly seen in both tapestries. The one on the right was created in 1330. The one on the left is entitled “The Magnificat”. Both are located at the French basillica Notre-Dame in Beaune, Burgandy.
	France	1338	This image on the left comes from the french book “Le Livre Des Bonnes Moeurs” by Jacques Legrand. You can find this book in Chantilly Condé’s Museum ref 1338 ,297 part 15 B 8. Some people say that the sphere is a balloon but there was no balloon in france in 1338.
	Yugoslavia	1350	The top picture on the left shows a fresco entitled “The Crucifixion” and was painted in 1350. Two objects with figures inside can be seen in the top left and top right of the fresco. Two enlargements of these objects are shown below the fresco. The fresco is located above the altar at the Visoki Decani Monestary in Kosovo, Yugoslavia.
	Florence	1460	The painting on the left is by Paolo Uccello (1396-1475) and is entitled “La Tebaide” (painted c.1460-1465). The blown up picture to the right of it shows a red saucer shaped UFO seen near Jesus. It hangs in the Academy of Florence.
	Italy	14th century	This picture depicts Jesus and Mary on what appear to be lenticular clouds. The painting is entitled “The Miracle of the Snow” and was painted by Masolino Da Panicale (1383-1440) and hangs at the church of Santa Maria Maggiore, Florence, Italy.
	?	14th century	Many paintings by Piero Della Francesca, including the picture on the left, “The Baptism of Christ” (1450), contain lenticular shaped clouds that many believe to be UFOs.
	Italy	1500	This painting is called “The Madonna with Saint Giovannino”. It was painted in the 15th century by Domenico Ghirlandaio (1449-1494) and hangs as part of the Loeser collection in the Palazzo Vecchio. Above Mary’s right shoulder is a disk shaped object. Below is a blow up of this section and a man and his dog can be seen looking up at the object.
	Rome	?	The picture on the left is a renaissance illustration of a UFO sighting in Rome detailed in a book “Prodigiorum liber” by Roman historian Julio Obsequens – “Something like a sort of weapon, or missile, rose with a great noise from the earth and soared into the sky”.
	?	Early 15th century	The painting on the right is entitled “The Intercession of Christ and the Virgin”, early 15th century by Lorenzo Monaco. It depicts God in the sky with strange disc shaped clouds underneath. It is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
	?	1465	1465 – Cigar shaped UFO – flaming girder seen in the sky during the reign of Enrico IV From Notabilia Temporum by Angelo de Tummulillis.
		1486	This painting is by Carlo Crivelli (1430-1495) and is called “TheAnnunciation with Saint Emidius” (1486) and hangs in the National Gallery, London.A disk shaped object is shining a pencil beam of light down onto the crown of Mary’s head.
	Belgium	?	This is a painting on a wood drawer from furniture kept at the Earls D’Oltremond, Belgium. Moses is receiving the tablets and several objects in the sky are seen near by. Date and artist unknown. This supports the claims of many that many biblical events, can be further explained when ufos and aliens are taken into consideration, higher forms of technology could explain some of the events such as writing on stone with fire, parting the red sea, etc… higher forms of technology might explain how some of these feats were performed.
		1490	This image is entitled “The Assumption of the Virgin” by ANON. Painted c.1490. Once again notice the discoidal clouds.
	Greece	15th century	This is a sketch of an untitled 15th century Italian fresco from Mount Athos, Greece . It depicts the Apostle John dictating the Biblical book of Revelation to a young disciple. In the upper lefthand corner is a segment of a glowing oval object from which a beam of light is aimed at the head of John. In the upper right hand corner is a typical disk-shaped object which is emitting a converging light beam. Maybe someone has an original of this fresco?
	Kiev	15th century	This is a 15th century fresco from Kiev. Seems to show Jesus in a rocket type device.
	Bruges	1538	This is a tapestry called Summer’s triumph and was created in Bruges in 1538. It now resides at the Bayerisches National Museum. You can clearly see several disc shaped objects in the top of the tapestry. Someone has speculated that they are islands, if so, then these islands are floating in the sky!
		1557	The picture on the left is from a book entitled Prodigiorum Ac Ostentorum Chronicon by Conrad Lycosthenes (1518-1561). Basel: Henricpteri, 1557. It depicts a UFO sighting in Arabia in 1479. The book is held at the Australian Museum Research Library.
	Nuremburg	15th century	This image is of an actual sighting that occurred in Nuremburg on the 14th April 1561. It appeared in a local broadsheet and was a woodcut by Hans Glasser. The globes, crosses and tubes began to fight one another, and this went on for an hour. Then they all fell to earth, as if on fire, and faded slowly away producing a lot of steam. Afterwards a black spear-like object was seen, and the whole event was taken to be a divine warning. Held at the Wickiana Collection, Zurich Central Library.
	Switzerland	1566	This broadsheet picture by Samuel Coccius illustrates a UFO sighting over Basel, Switzerland in 1566. ‘Large black Globes’ appeared in the skies. It is held at the Wickiana Collection, Zurich Central Library.
	San Pietro	1600	The painting on the right is by Bonaventura Salimbeni entitled “Glorification of the Eucharist”, painted in 1600. Notice the Sputnik satellite device. It hangs in the church of San Lorenzo in San Pietro. It is considered by some to be a stylised representation of the Earth but I have included it here as it still looks interesting.
	Holland	1660	1660. The illustration depicts a sighting by two Dutch ships in the North Sea of an object moving slowly in the sky. It appeared to be made by two disks of different size. The source for this account is one of the books entitled :”Theatrum Orbis Terrarum” by Admiral Blaeu. These books were compilations of articles by different authors and consisted of detailed accounts of long engagements at sea, cartography information etc.
	France	16th century	This is a French jeton minted in 1680, a coin-like educational tool that was commonly used to help people count money, or sometimes used as a money substitute for playing games. It is about the size of a U.S. quarter-dollar and similar to thousands of other jetons with different religious and educational designs that were produced and used in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. It appears to commemorate a UFO sighting of a wheel like object. Some researchers feel it represents the Biblical Ezekiel’s wheel. The Latin inscription ‘OPPORTUNUS ADEST’ translates as ‘It is here at an opportune time”.
	Germany	1697	More wheels! This picture shows a UFO sighting over Hamburg, Germany 4 November 1697. The objects were described as “two glowing wheels”.
	Mtskheta, Georgia	17th century	This is a 17th century fresco and is located in the SvetishoveliCathedral in Mtskheta, Georgia. Notice the two saucer shaped objects either side of Christ.In the two blow ups, you can see they contain faces.
	?	1710	This image is by Flemish artist Aert De Gelder and is entitled “The Baptism of Christ” It was painted in 1710 and hangs in the Fitzwilliam Museum , Cambridge. A disk shaped object is shining beams of light down on John the Baptist and Jesus.
	?	1742	This is a scan from vol. 42 of the Philosophical Transactions 1742 describing a sighting that occured on the 16th December 1742. Alongside is a contemporary reconstruction depicting the object with the colours described.
	England	1783	The illustration on the left depicts a sighting that occurred at 9.45pm on the evening of 18th August 1783 when four witnesses on the terrace of Windsor Castle observed a luminous object in the skies of the Home Counties of England. The sighting was recorded the following year in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. According to this report, witnesses observed an oblong cloud moving more or less parallel to the horizon. Under this cloud could be seen a luminous object which soon became spherical, brilliantly lit, which came to a halt; This strange sphere seemed at first to be pale blue in colour but then its luminosity increased and soon it set off again towards the east. Then the object changed direction and moved parallel to the horizon before disappearing to the south-east ; the light it gave out was prodigious; it lit us everything on the ground.; The image was captured in this by Thomas Sandby (a founder of the Royal Academy) and his brother Paul, both of whom witnessed the event.
	Japan	1803	This is an illustration from a book “Ume No Chiri (Dust of Apricot)” published in 1803. A foreign ship and crew witnessed at Haratonohama (Haratono Seashore) in Hitachi no Kuni (Ibaragi Prefecture), Japan this strange object. According to the explanation in the drawing, the outershell was made of iron and glass, and strange letters shown in this drawing were seen inside the ship.
	Australia	1837	These are illustrations from a book by Lt. Grey. “Journals of Two Expeditions of Discovery in North-West and Western Australia 1837, 1838, & 1839″, www.hesperianpress.com. He led an expedition in the 19th century to some caves near the Glenelg River region of Kimberley, Northern Australia. They are considered to be pre-aboriginal.

Why Are UFO’s & Alien Life Suddenly Being Discussed In The Mainstream?

Is the government and media gearing up for disclosure?

There was a time when the mainstream press would only cover aliens and UFO’s if it were a satirical piece, after all aliens were relegated to the realm of tin foil hats and science fiction. Recently however more and more publications are talking about the possibility of alien life like it is becoming science fact.

This open discussion of these topics in publications such as The Guardian, The Daily Mail, Metro, The Huffington Post and even Sky News to name a few. The headlines openly discuss the possibilities of alien life and the vastness of space and the likelihood we will find life.

NASA have been have made countless discoveries in recent years that indicate that planets in our own solar system were once alive and had water flowing on the surface. The Telegraph in 2011 would run headlines such as ‘Alien Life Deemed Impossible’. Professor Brian Cox who holds great sway over mainstream audiences when it comes to space ad the unknown also stated that alien life was impossible.
Last December former MoD Nick Pope discusses the possibility that the government was prepping us for alien disclosure through our news and media outlets, by openly discussing these subjects and slowly introducing the concept that it may be true over time you can condition the public to accept the news without fear.          

Nick Pope said, “it wasn’t long ago that UFO shows were consigned to networks like Syfy, but there are now only a tiny handful of channels that won’t touch the subject. It’s gone from fringe to mainstream in a matter of a couple of years. Is this part of a campaign to acclimatise people to an extra-terrestrial reality, ahead of an official announcement? Is Disclosure just around the corner?”

The UK government is also set to declassify more of its “X Files” and make them publicly available on the National Archives in late 2015.  Nick Pope said, “This is a hugely embarrassing situation for the government.

“Last summer they told the media and the public that yes, this was absolutely all the UFO files and there was a big fanfare about this being the end of a five year programme to declassify and release the entire archive. Now they say, ‘Oh, wait a minute, we’ve found a whole bunch of further UFO files’”.
This combination of declassifying government documents and widespread media coverage of aliens and UFO’s seem to be gearing us up to accept they exist on mass. Even today (Jan 16) the mainstream press are publishing article about the search of life sustaining planets and how thousands more have been dicovered.

It was just the other week that NASA were saying they have thousands of life sustaining planet candidats. The concept of alien life is without doubt slowly being introduced to the public consciousness. What do you think, are we being prepped for a big disclousure in 2015?

Are miniature, Gray-like aliens biological robots?

ufoseek.org

Beings could be part of spacecraft technology

If there’s one idea I came away with at the International UFO Congress (IUFOC), held earlier this month in Laughlin, Nevada, it’s about the potential technological composition of aliens. Two presentations given at the conference --– a survey of alien life forms by abductee therapist Dolores Cannon, and a discussion of the late Colonel Philip Corso by Las Vegas journalist George Knapp inspired me to rethink how certain aliens could be robots.

Combining the two presentations leads me to this hypothesis: Alien voyagers can’t take the atmospheric pressure on Earth, so they breed biomechanical clones; meantime, the Roswell UFO crash occurred because the technology –-- in this case, robotic beings –-- on board the craft malfunctioned.
Of course, the alien-robot connection is by no means new. The great 1951 movie The Day the Earth Stood Still featured a robot named Gort, who was commissioned solely to defend its master and his ship. UFO researchers have talked about alien
droids ever since. Moreover, the headline story of the November-December 1974 edition of The A.P.R.O. Bulletin (Aerial Phenomena Research Organization), a leading publication of its time, is titled “Robots in Quebec, Canada.” The piece discusses how a Canadian couple saw four metal-bodied, six-foot-tall robots walk stiffly --– as if remote-controlled --– near a neighboring trailer home.
Carrying this idea further, in the future, humans will have much more ability to merge with machines, just like alien bots. As MIT researcher Ray Kurzweil suggests, by 2030, $1,000 in microchips, in today’s dollars, will purchase a human brain’s worth of computing power. Humans will be able to enhance their intelligence by plugging their brains into an artificial brain, called a “neural net.” This considered, I’d venture to guess that Grays represent what humans could be like in 1,000 years: inter-dimensional time travelers aided by bio-mechanical helpers.

Little Grays get a “bad rap”
Grays and alien androids may look alike: almond-shaped eyes; no ears or nose; and four fingers, but they are differentiated by intelligence and place of origin. Grays are gifted with unlimited imagination, hail from Tau Ceti or Zeta Reticuli, and act as cosmic police from their massive mothership precincts. Servant robots of Grays, which look like miniature versions of Grays, merely carry out their makers’
wishes.
In her talk, Cannon, a hypnotherapist, spoke from her purview of 15 years of work with alien abductees. Having sent dozens of abductees into an unconscious state, Cannon has been able to see similarities in the stories of these so-called “experiencers.” She admits to having a very positive perspective, that aliens are trying to help humankind, rather than harm us. Humans are innately scared by these beings. “They’re very lovable people,” she says.
Little Gray aliens, she says, get a “bad rap.”
They’re actually trying to guide us through climate changes and global power struggles.
Yet, aliens have corrected Cannon through her subjects’ voices, when she referred to the beings as robots. “They’re biologically created beings,” she says. “They are not robots as we see them, but they are created to do a job. I call them go-fers, the ones who do the chores.”
These inter-dimensional, biomechanical beings appear and reappear before our eyes because they vibrate at a quicker frequency, because they’re more technologically advanced. Meantime, non-mechanical aliens may orbit the far reaches of our solar system, or in another dimension, in their enormous motherships. They must slow the vibration of their bodies before coming close to Earth; largely, they experience pain when entering our pressurized atmosphere. Hence, the need exists for droids. For the same reason, Cannon explains, humans can’t tolerate the vibration of droids’ scout ships.
How are these robot-like beings bred? Cannon says they are grown in the laboratories of motherships, in breeding pods filled with liquid. The bots grow very quickly. The content of the liquid is unknown, though; perhaps such a liquid contains nutrients gained from cattle mutilations, as Jim Dilettoso suggests.

The alien droid as a spaceship’s guidance system

George Knapp’s lecture on Philip Corso was one of my favorite IUFOC talks, simply because Knapp was conveyed a kinship and understanding for the late author of The Day after Roswell. Knapp shared with the audience never-before-seen video of Corso, which portrayed the controversial officer in an endearing light.
With likeable frankness, Corso recalled an encounter he had with aliens in the desert in 1957, when he was based at White Sands, New Mexico. Driving out into the desert in his command car, chasing down coordinates of a downed craft, Corso encountered an object that taunted his vision. In a surprisingly earnest tone, the retired soldier recalled that he thought he was “going a little bit nutty,” and remembered thinking, “This must be a hallucination, because these things don’t happen. The damn thing appeared and disappeared and appeared again. . . . I figured, ‘What the hell did I see? Am I getting drunk, hallucinating, or nuts?’”
Eventually, Corso got the nerve to put his hand on the craft, but felt cold metal. What’s more, his compass started to spin, and his truck’s motor died. In the end, though, a telepathic voice urged Corso not to shoot. The pilots of the craft simply wanted the military to disengage their radars for 10 minutes, so the saucer could fly away without getting tracked. Corso in turn was told he and his race would be granted, “A new world, if you can take it.”
Yet, one of the more surprising revelations embedded in the Corso video was his admission of one regret; he had “missed out” on something, as he put it, in his work with alien bodies recovered from the Roswell crash.
“The greatest artifact that they gave us was [sic] those bodies,” Corso said. “And we didn’t do enough. For that, I can personally take blame. I had the money. I had the motivation. I had the people to do it.
And I didn’t go far enough.”
Corso continued: “We didn’t do enough --– how they function, how their brain functions. We came to the conclusion --– even in those days --– that the reason those flying saucers have failed [. . .] our contention was that this being is a part of a guidance system. He’s part of that saucer.”
The thesis of The Day after Roswell is that the U.S. military obtained advanced technologies from the crashed craft –-- like miniaturized semiconductors, lasers, and fiberoptics. If aliens had already developed semiconductors for their scout ships, then it’s entirely possible that they bred robot-androids to serve as biomechanical processors, to handle more general tasks, such as carrying out surveying and sampling missions. Perhaps the aliens who crashed at Roswell can be seen as failed Pentium III chips.

Parallels to contemporary robotics

A third reason for seven-foot alien beings to send worker bots to Earth revolves around our planet’s toxicology. Similar to Cannon’s explanation, this thesis suggests that Earth’s polluted atmosphere, hazardous waste, and diseases may be too much of a threat for the “real” aliens. Worker aliens –-- perhaps partly biological being, perhaps technological creature –-- would therefore be needed to handle true
aliens’ “dirty work,” namely surveillance. The bots are more likely to get up close and personal, so to speak, with humans because they’re not in danger of getting sick. Due to their partly mechanical composition, they’re more immune to human disease.What NASA and pioneering robotics facilities are doing today doesn’t stray too far from this point. The Mars Sojourner (the vehicle deployed by MarsPathfinder) and the Pioneer Project (which is to send a robot into the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, to inspect and repair its interiors) are fine examples of how we’re sending robots into atmospheres that we can’t tolerate.
The Day after Roswell holds an insight into where humankind is heading. Aliens gave us semiconductors. We improve the power of semiconductors over time, to the point where machines take on the capacity for consciousness. In turn, humans become more like machines, who develop their own machines to explore space. This is something that aliens from other dimensions might have been doing for ages

CARTE. Ovnis dans le Var: beaucoup de témoins et quatre cas énigmatiques

 Une cellule spécialisée du Centre national d’études spatiales trouve une explication à la plupart des "phénomènes aérospatiaux". Mais quelques observations sur notre territoire restent énigmatiques.

L'attractivité du premier département touristique de France s'exerce-t-elle au-delà des frontières de notre système solaire? Les phénomènes aérospatiaux observés dans le ciel varois, comme ailleurs, constituent-ils une preuve de vie extraterrestre?

Ces questions virent parfois à l'obsession.

Le jeune chasseur d'ovnis dépêché à Vins-sur-Caramy en 1957, est devenu quarante ans plus tard un célèbre ufologue français, convaincu par les théories du complot les plus extrêmes: enlèvements extraterrestres, négociations secrètes entre gouvernants et civilisations lointaines, etc.

Un "cas d'école" dans le Var

Si l'affaire de l'ovni de Vins-sur-Caramy n'a pas convaincu les analystes de l'armée américaine (les complotistes n'en attendaient pas moins), l'affaire de la soucoupe volante de Trans-en-Provence, en 1981, marque la revanche de l'ufologie sur les sceptiques.

Cette "rencontre du deuxième type" est sérieusement classée, malgré pas mal d'expertises techniques et scientifiques, parmi les quatre phénomènes véritablement non identifiés dans le Var: à Saint-Raphaël en 1979, à Toulon, Ollioules et Trans-en-Provence en 1981 (voir notre carte ci-dessous).

La cellule chargée, au sein du Centre national d'études spatiales (Cnes) de Toulouse, d'étudier puis de classer les signalements de phénomène aérospatiaux recense par ailleurs dans le département une quinzaine de faits non identifiables, à cause d'un manque d'informations.

Même si dans le cas de l'observation du Thoronet, en 1995, l'hypothèse que le témoin a confondu un Ovni avec la lune est jugée possible...

Pour le reste - une petite vingtaine de dossiers ouverts en quarante ans -, les effets d'optique, le survol de drones, d'un hélicoptère, le passage lumineux d'un paquebot au grand large, d'une météorite dans l'atmosphère, voire la position de la station spatiale internationale permettent régulièrement de clore les enquêtes.

En rouge, les communes où des ovnis ont été observés.

Ash Cloud Spins Around Invisible Shield UFO Over Volcano Turrialba in Costa Rica – March 2015 (Video)

(Before It's News)

A webcam owned by the Costa Rican seismological and vulcanology institute (OVSICORI) and installed near the Turrialba volcano in Costa Rica during an eruption yesterday (March 15, 2015) captured several UFOs above and near the Volcano.

At 0.37 in the video you can see that a part of the ash cloud spins around a kind of invisible shield of a UFO. Then it looks like an unknown force pushes the ash cloud away from the object.

Strange Green Fireball Over Switzerland Caught On Dashcam – March 2015 (Video)

(Before It's News)

On March 15, 2015, a dashcam caught a weird looking green fireball over Switzerland.

Probably it is just a meteorite but it looks artificial, going all in perfect straight line and at 30 seconds in the first video, it looks like the tail re ignited and accelerated.

Europe’s physics lab CERN in Switserland said Thursday they had begun tests in preparation for rebooting the world’s biggest particle collider and trying to uncover new particles that could alter our understanding of the Universe and yesterday after they nearly doubled the energy levels possible in the collider, CERN scientists have their sights set on finding exotic new particles in a previously-inaccessible realm.

Although it seems unlikely we may wonder if the fireball has something to do with CERN.

Bright craft flying over San Antonio, Texas 13-Mar-2015

Here’s a new video of a two linked lights in the sky above San Antonio, Texas. This was filmed on 13th March 2015.

Witness report: As i was Skywatching i notice this low glowing light above some trees..No FAA navigational light’s were visible so i quickly grabbed my camera for a closer look..When zooming in you can clearly see it was no Airplane it was a U.F.O Craft..At first It appeared to hover over the area.I decided to pan back using the tree tops and a street light as reference points..You can clearly see U.F.O Craft travel above some tree tops…Giving us the altitude it was..This was an awesome sighting due to how low it was…At some point it began to pick up speed until it was gone and out of view..In my opinion this UFO Craft was clearly no aircraft/satellite….

Report UFO sighting #197

Wolverhampton West Midlands, UK – 09/03/15
noticed a unusual looking star, was what i presumed it was. then it seemed to shift sideways and become more traingulted. with light running all across the front rim. it was quite cloudy that evening and moved off behind clouds. this was roughly about 22:00. the reason i am messaging is we live about 20 miles from the woman in the UK sighting story.
thought it could potentialy be same UFO.

Port Moody, BC, Canada – February 27 2015 approx 7:20 PM
I was sitting underneath my balcony having a cigar, then I noticed these 3 bright lights not too far up in the sky sitting still in a triangle formation. They seemed kinda more like orbs… as I was watching them, the right bottom orb faded away (didn’t fly or move), it just disappeared; vanished. So thats when I pulled out my phone and tried taking a picture cause now there were only two orbs… I snapped the photo (attached) and as I’m still watching,  the top orb vanished as well as the last one. I didn’t think to record a video  because I was way too interested on what these lights were, I am wishing I did. The First photo is the original (not zoomed) and the other two are just zoomed. I also attached a daylight shot on where the photo was exactly taken. Great Experience!

Johannesburg, South Africa – February 22, 2015
I was taking pictures of the city-scape from my house, and never noticed anything in the sky until I looked at the photos afterwards. There is nothing in the pictures taken before or after, though they were taken only seconds apart. In higher magnification,it seems to be tetrahedral in shape, with a central column. It looks similar to a sighting of a triangular UFO reported 7 Feb 2015 over the UK.

Jalisco, Mexico – 2014
I took this pictures last year, at Jalisco, México. At Sierra Bolaños. I didn’t see the ball, until I saw the pictures at home. Please check the circle of light behind the ball.

NASA Spacecraft Becomes First to Orbit a Dwarf Planet

The slim crescent of Ceres smiles back as the dwarf planet awaits the arrival of an emissary from Earth.
› Full image and caption | Similar view

NASA's Dawn spacecraft has become the first mission to achieve orbit around a dwarf planet. The spacecraft was approximately 38,000 miles (61,000 kilometers) from Ceres when it was captured by the dwarf planet's gravity at about 4:39 a.m. PST (7:39 a.m. EST) Friday.

Mission controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California received a signal from the spacecraft at 5:36 a.m. PST (8:36 a.m. EST) that Dawn was healthy and thrusting with its ion engine, the indicator Dawn had entered orbit as planned.

"Since its discovery in 1801, Ceres was known as a planet, then an asteroid and later a dwarf planet," said Marc Rayman, Dawn chief engineer and mission director at JPL. "Now, after a journey of 3.1 billion miles (4.9 billion kilometers) and 7.5 years, Dawn calls Ceres, home."

In addition to being the first spacecraft to visit a dwarf planet, Dawn also has the distinction of being the first mission to orbit two extraterrestrial targets. From 2011 to 2012, the space-craft explored the giant asteroid Vesta, delivering new insights and thousands of images from that distant world. Ceres and Vesta are the two most massive residents of our solar system's main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.

The most recent images received from the spacecraft, taken on March 1, show Ceres as a crescent, mostly in shadow because the spacecraft's trajectory put it on a side of Ceres that faces away from the sun until mid-April. When Dawn emerges from Ceres' dark side, it will deliver ever-sharper images as it spirals to lower orbits around the planet.

"We feel exhilarated," said Chris Russell, principal investigator of the Dawn mission at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). "We have much to do over the next year and a half, but we are now on station with ample reserves, and a robust plan to obtain our science objectives."

Dawn's mission is managed by JPL for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. Dawn is a project of the directorate's Discovery Program, managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. Orbital ATK Inc., in Dulles, Virginia, designed and built the spacecraft. The German Aerospace Center, Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Italian Space Agency and Italian National Astrophysical Institute are international partners on the mission team.
