‘Britain’s Atlantis’ – a hidden underwater world swallowed by the North Sea – has been discovered by divers working with science teams from the University of St Andrews.
Doggerland, a huge area of dry land that stretched from Scotland to Denmark was slowly submerged by water between 18,000 BC and 5,500 BC.
Divers from oil companies have found remains of a ‘drowned world’ with a population of tens of thousands – which might once have been the ‘real heartland’ of Europe.
A team of climatologists, archaeologists and geophysicists has now mapped the area using new data from oil companies – and revealed the full extent of a ‘lost land’ once roamed by mammoths.
The research suggests that the populations of these drowned lands could have been tens of thousands, living in an area that stretched from Northern Scotland across to Denmark and down the English Channel as far as the Channel Islands.
The area was once the ‘real heartland’ of Europe and was hit by ‘a devastating tsunami’, the researchers claim.
The wave was part of a larger process that submerged the low-lying area over the course of thousands of years.
‘The name was coined for Dogger Bank, but it applies to any of several periods when the North Sea was land,’ says Richard Bates of the University of St Andrews. ‘Around 20,000 years ago, there was a ‘maximum’ – although part of this area would have been covered with ice. When the ice melted, more land was revealed – but the sea level also rose.
‘Through a lot of new data from oil and gas companies, we’re able to give form to the landscape – and make sense of the mammoths found out there, and the reindeer. We’re able to understand the types of people who were there.
‘People seem to think rising sea levels are a new thing – but it’s a cycle of Earth history that has happened many many times.’
Organized by Dr Richard Bates of the Department of Earth Sciences at St Andrews, the Drowned Landscapes exhibit reveals the human story behind Doggerland, a now submerged area of the North Sea that was once larger than many modern European countries.
Dr Bates, a geophysicist, said: ‘Doggerland was the real heartland of Europe until sea levels rose to give us the UK coastline of today.
We have speculated for years on the lost land’s existence from bones dredged by fishermen all over the North Sea, but it’s only since working with oil companies in the last few years that we have been able to re-create what this lost land looked like.
‘When the data was first being processed, I thought it unlikely to give us any useful information, however as more area was covered it revealed a vast and complex landscape.
‘We have now been able to model its flora and fauna, build up a picture of the ancient people that lived there and begin to understand some of the dramatic events that subsequently changed the land, including the sea rising and a devastating tsunami.’
The research project is a collaboration between St Andrews and the Universities of Aberdeen, Birmingham, Dundee and Wales Trinity St David.
Rediscovering the land through pioneering scientific research, the research reveals a story of a dramatic past that featured massive climate change. The public exhibit brings back to life the Mesolithic populations of Doggerland through artifacts discovered deep within the sea bed.
The research, a result of a painstaking 15 years of fieldwork around the murky waters of the UK, is one of the highlights of the London event.
The interactive display examines the lost landscape of Doggerland and includes artifacts from various times represented by the exhibit – from pieces of flint used by humans as tools to the animals that also inhabited these lands.
Using a combination of geophysical modelling of data obtained from oil and gas companies and direct evidence from material recovered from the seafloor, the research team was able to build up a reconstruction of the lost land.
The findings suggest a picture of a land with hills and valleys, large swamps and lakes with major rivers dissecting a convoluted coastline.
As the sea rose the hills would have become an isolated archipelago of low islands. By examining the fossil record – such as pollen grains, microfauna and macrofauna – the researchers can tell what kind of vegetation grew in Doggerland and what animals roamed there.
Using this information, they were able to build up a model of the ‘carrying capacity’ of the land and work out roughly how many humans could have lived there.
The research team is currently investigating more evidence of human behavior, including possible human burial sites, intriguing standing stones and a mass mammoth grave.
Dr Bates added: ‘We haven’t found an ‘x marks the spot’ or ‘Joe created this’, but we have found many artifacts and submerged features that are very difficult to explain by natural causes, such as mounds surrounded by ditches and fossilized tree stumps on the seafloor.
‘There is actually very little evidence left because much of it has eroded underwater; it’s like trying to find just part of a needle within a haystack. What we have found though is a remarkable amount of evidence and we are now able to pinpoint the best places to find preserved signs of life.’
Ancient Paintings depicting Alien Visitors: the Wandjina of Western Australia
The most visually striking of the ancient aboriginal paintings can be found in the Kimberly region of Western Australia. Besides bearing a striking resemblance to modern depictions of aliens, the Wandjina figures also have an interesting story to tell.
Due to its proximity to Southern Asia, it is very likely that the Aboriginal Australians settled in the Kimberly region as early as 70,000 years ago. Their mythology is rich and interesting, both in terms of characters and events and the legends surrounding the Wandjina make for a very interesting topic.
As the story goes, the Wandjina created the world and everything within it during a period the Aborigines call Dreamtime. The legend says they came from beyond the stars, acting as civilizing gods and teaching the locals their way of life.
After completing their work, the Wandjina left. According to some stories, they returned to their home, somewhere in the Milky Way. An alternative scenario has the Wandjina painting their likeness on the surfaces of rock shelters before entering the rocks themselves.
Aborigines hold the paintings in high regard and maintain them with a sense of sacred duty.
These depictions present the Wandjina as majestic and strange creatures, usually painted against white backgrounds. Their faces are encircled in an oval band with outward radiating lines, reminiscent of a space faring humanoid’s helmet. They are always painted with big black eyes, a nose but never with a mouth. In fact, legends say the Wandjina never resorted to speech as they conveyed their will directly inside the mind of their subjects. Telepathic abilities?
The Wandjina paintings of Western Australia aren’t the only ones of their kind. Similar ancient paintings have been found in Indian caves, all over South America and in many regions of Africa.
Sibera Doomed? Huge Landslide and Another Giant Crater hit Novokuznetsk!
Is Siberia doomed? In just three weeks, a town in the Novokuznetsk Region has seen a massive, slow moving landslide and yet another giant crater.
On April 1 (not a joke), a dramatic landslide occurred in a Siberian town, swallowing up roads and a railway, uprooting trees and destroying power lines. Thankfully, the disaster happened at a turtle’s pace and nobody was hurt.
But then, just as the locals were recovering from the effects of the landslip, another strange geological phenomenon hit the area. On April 20, a new giant crater appeared in town. Measuring 65 feet (20 meters) in diameter and with a depth of 100 feet (30 meters), the hole is causing panic amid residents, who fear the next one might swallow their homes.
The craters that have made the news in the past few months are a cause of great concern. But while the previous craters were only found in northern Siberia’s Yamal peninsula, this one is located almost 2,200 miles (3,500 kilometers) to the south.
Alarmingly, the Novokuznetsk crater is the southernmost sinkhole. Is this evidence that there is something brewing beneath Siberia, slowly making its way south?
Probably not. While Russian authorities made no comment on the situation, the locals blame the newly-formed crater on the abandoned coal mines just outside of town.
Emergency Ministry personnel arrived at the site, isolated the sinkhole and filled it with earth. The recent landslide had provided more than plenty…
100,000 Galaxies examined for Signs of Advanced Alien Life, 50 of them show promise!
Our follow-up studies of those galaxies may reveal if the origin of their radiation results from natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.”—Roger Griffith, Penn State College of Science
Using NASA’s WISE satellite, scientists from the Pennsylvania State Universityexamined more than 100,000 galaxies, scouring them for telltale signs of advanced alien civilizations. As expected, they found no obvious evidence but they did manage to isolate 50 galaxies that show promise.
Since its launch in December of 2009, the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) space telescope has collected data from more than 100 million objects.
A lot of ground to cover
Out of that huge collection, Roger Griffith, the lead researcher of the study, selected 100,000 images of galaxies that he believed were the most interesting. Griffith and his colleagues focused on the heat signature of these galaxies, or how much infrared radiation they emitted.
Jason Wright, assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics at Penn State explains:
The idea behind our research is that, if an entire galaxy had been colonized by an advanced spacefaring civilization, the energy produced by that civilization’s technologies would be detectable in mid-infrared [MIR] wavelengths — exactly the radiation that the WISE satellite was designed to detect for other astronomical purposes.”
The idea that advanced extraterrestrial civilizations could be spotted through their heat signature is not new. A little history, for those who are interested:
In 1960, theoretical physicist Freeman Dyson hypothesized that such a civilization could be detected by looking at their energy consumption. The more advanced they became, the more energy they would use. Upon passing a certain technological threshold, the aliens would need to look outside their planet for a reliable energy source.
As a result, they would harness the energy of their star (or stars) by surrounding it with a solar energy collector known as a Dyson sphere. If such an energy trap would be constructed around a star, it would show up as an anomaly in an infrared wavelength photo.
Dyson Sphere encompassing a single star
In 1964, Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev took things a little further by establishing a scale for advanced alien civilizations, based on how much energy they used. A Type 1 civilization would use all available resources on its home planet. A Type 2 civilization would have higher energy demands and therefore harness the energy of its star while a Type 3 civilization would use so much energy it would require the total output of their entire galaxy.
Pertaining to the Kardashev scale, humans are expected to reach Type 1 status in 100 to 200 years.
The researchers at Penn State University focused on finding signs of Type 2 – Type 3 alien civilizations, due to the vast number of surveyed galaxies and current technological limitations.
Out of the 100,000 potential candidates, the scientists isolated 50 galaxies that showed “unusually high levels of mid-infrared radiation.” All of them show signs that at least 50% of their starlight is being reprocessed into MIR. Further studies will show whether this discrepancy stems from “natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.”
However exciting this research might sound, we have to address an important question: Would we be able to detect such an advanced civilization, if it even exists? As Arthur C. Clarke once famously said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Or, as science fiction author Karl Schroader put it, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable fromnature.”
Freeman Dyson himself—now 91 years of age but still interested in the secrets of the deep space—was contacted by Scientific American in order to discuss the study’s findings.
Our imaginings about the way that aliens might make themselves detectable are always like stories of black cats in a dark room,” he said. “If there are any real aliens, they are likely to behave in ways that we never imagined. The WISE result shows that the aliens did not follow one particular path. That is good to know. But it still leaves a huge variety of other paths open. The failure of one guess does not mean that we should stop looking for aliens.”
Well put, Mr. Dyson!
What about you? Do you share his optimism? Let us know in the comments!
ASTRONOMERS AMAZING ALIEN UFO CRAFT CAPTURED ON FILM
A Hastings man has sought the opinion of the Observer’s resident UFO expert after capturing an unexplained phenomenon on camera. Alan Harding visited our Woods House office today (Tuesday, April 21) to ask Malcolm Robinson to look over a series of pictures captured on his camera which appear to show a UFO. Harding, from Hastings, captured the picture while photographing the moons of Jupiter. Mr Harding set up his camera outside his Harold Road home to capture the alignment of the moons of Jupiter on the night of the solar eclipse on March 18. However, when he viewed the images he spotted a bright object which appeared to move around the sky over the space of 12 minutes. “I didn’t notice it until I emphasized the images otherwise I would have stayed up all night,” he said. After taking the images to several observatories he decided to seek the advice of Mr Robinson. Although his day job is selling adverts for the Observer series, Mr Robinson is a leading expert on UFOs and has just finished filming for a new Channel 5 documentary. Speaking about Mr Harding’s images, he said: “My initial thought was that it may be lens flare – due to the nature of the bright planets sometimes there is flare to the left or the right. “However, the gentleman assures me that it was not that and it certainly doesn’t look like that. “My second thought was that something has flown into the camera shot like a gull but again, I don’t think it is that.” Mr Robinson explained the vast majority of images turn out to be easily explained. Of the remaining five percent, three per cent is military or other advanced technology and one per cent is an new atmospheric phenomenon. “The one per cent that remains, the fly in the ointment, that is what keeps scientists and ufologists the world over interested in the subject,” he said. “It is great to have a local man coming up with not just a strange story but some great images.” Mr Harding said: “I take millions of images, I’m a technological person and I know all the issues you get with lens. “I have got no explanation for it.” KENS NOTE: Digital cameras can see what our eyes cannot see. I personally receive many lens flair photos every day because people thing they have captured a UFO. Lens flair usually happens when someone takes a photo into or near the sun. The incoming light bounces off the lens and creates this effect. This is not the case in many instances though. Debunkers use this excuse for strange objects in peoples photos. Not all strange images on a photo is lens flair. Below is an easy explanation. Cameras can see many things that the human eye cannot. It doesn’t mean that because this is so, it is automatically paranormal. The word paranormal though at the same time means “above the normal” which is something we have yet to completely understand.Thermal Imaging Cameras are used to help provide evidence of the paranormal field by detecting energy (heat) which the human eye may not be able to see. Another theory of spirits is that since they may contain energy that they will in return have heat. Cold spots is another theory that suggests that these spirits absorb energy around them to manifest themselves which in turn they create a cold spot. Infrared Cameras are used in ghost hunting to view spirits that sometimes cannot be seen with the human eye. The theory is that spirits are more easier seen through IR light rather then UV light. Another theory states that spirits move more quickly through our dimension and because of this a high speed object would be easier to film using a high frequency short wave source and that composition of spirits may be more sensitive to reflecting IR light. Full Spectrum Camera is a device used to pick up visible and near infrared light. This device can pick up non-visible ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation. Once the camera is sensitive to the full-spectrum, external filters can be used to selectively filter portions of the UV, visible and infrared to achieve various effects. These cameras are used in Ghost Hunting, photography, archeological findings and even with the police to help find forensic evidence. Digital Cameras can be a very useful device which is not costly and you get instant satisfaction unlike with a film camera where you must wait to get it developed. Digital cameras have been known to pick up ghosts and spirits which are sometimes not seen with the human eye and sometimes they are. There are many digital cameras to choose from these days at all price ranges. 35mm Film Cameras can be useful in filming spirits since some theories suggest that because this method involves using a chemical process to create the pictures it may provide better results which you may not get by using a digital camera and that using black and white film you may see images that may not show up on the most expensive digital cameras. ..

Date of sighting: April 18, 2015 Location of sighting: Westin Building, Virginia Beach, USA
The building is actually the Westin Hotel in Virgina and is 38 floors high. This UFO is like many of the glowing UFOs seen around the world. They have a white glow, round. For example, the Dome of Rock UFO back in 2011. Great catch and nice someone stopped to record it for us. SCW
Eyewitness states: This UFO was seen around 12am on April 18th 2015, above the Westin building in Va Beach. Did anyone else see this object? Is this a UFO? Or maybe a drone? Any ideas on what this could be?
The Cabulco volcano in Chile has erupted briefly for the first time in more than 40 years, leading to the evacuation of more than two-thousand residents. Local reports say people are rushing to fill up gas tanks and buy food.
Calbuco is a stratovolcano in southern Chile, located southeast of Llanquihue Lake and northwest of Chapo Lake, in the Los Lagos Region. The volcano and the surrounding area are protected within Llanquihue National Reserve.
It is known that UFOs have been reported near volcanoes in recent years, especially near active volcanoes.
The following videos show once again that UFOs are interested in active volcanoes. During the eruption of the Calbuco volcano a formation of UFOs/Orbs was captured on video going into the plume. In the next video Dabh00777 shows the moment the UFOs/Orbs fly into the ash cloud.
You can catch the UFO/Orb Objects at the 11 second Mark of the original video below.
The witness first saw the sphere-shaped object just before 9 p.m. on April 15, 2015. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)
openminds.tv
A California witness at Indio reported watching a yellow-white sphere that increased and decreased in size by 50 percent before ascending straight up into the night sky, according to testimony in Case 64711 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was in his backyard with the family dog about 8:53 p.m. on April 15, 2015, when the object was first seen.
“At approximately 82 degrees north I saw movement of a yellow-white object with movement in a southward direction,” the witness stated. “The object was 10 degrees off of true north to the west.”
The witness described the object’s movements.
“The object then stopped and blossomed by 50 percent or greater with color changes to greenish-yellow for about one to two seconds. The object then diminished to its original size in the stationary location about 87/88 degrees north.”
The object appeared to increase in size by about 50 percent and then decrease in size by 50 percent. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)
And then the witness watched the object move away.
“The object then ascended straight upward until it could no longer be seen by the naked eye. It almost reminded me of seeing something powering up and then immediately ascending upon the completion of doing so. This observation lasted 5 to 6 seconds, yet was definitely an unusual activity over all.”
The witness has lived in the area for years and frequently sky watches.
“I scan the night sky as I have for many years and am very familiar with the general location of stars and visible planets as I have lived in the Coachella Valley since 1974. This object had immediately captured my attention. I was astonished by the brief yet captivating event. I am a trained and retired Investigator and this observation was out of the ordinary altogether. To say I was excited would be mildly explanatory at the least.”
The witness could not identify the object.
“This object was not a general aircraft or a meteor. We have three airports within a 20- mile radius and I am very familiar with air-flight within the region. I have on two occasions spent time in Sedona, Arizona, observing the night skies with Cat III night vision equipment. I have observed what I believe to be IGC (Intelligently Guided Craft) and the sighting on April 15, 2015, was very similar in the manner of previous observations of objects blossoming and moving in very similar fashion as I have observed in the past. I am even tempered, sober and feel compelled to report this observation. This definitely was impactful to myself as I believe this observation was extraordinary in time, location and observable activity.”
Indio is a city in Riverside County, California, population 76,036.
The object appeared to hover in place before shooting off into the night sky. Pictured: Indio, CA. (Credit: Google)

Roswell op herhaling – Ufo crasht bij Siberisch plaatsje, overheid rept over een gasballon explosie
Roswell op herhaling – Ufo crasht bij Siberisch plaatsje, overheid rept over een gasballon explosie
Vorige week, stortte een ongeïdentificeerd vliegend object neer in de buurt van de Siberische stad Chita. De Russische regering Treedde naar buiten en beweerde dat het voorval werd veroorzaakt door “een gasballon explosie.” Klinkt dat bekend?
Inwoners van het Oegandese dorp in het zuidoosten van Siberië werden afgelopen donderdag opgeschrikt door een luide explosie. “Ik hoorde een explosie en zag een enorme pillaar van zwarte rook rond 11 of 12 uur,” vertelde Vladimir Milovanovic tegen lokale verslaggevers.
Er waren geen gewonden, maar een nabijgelegen gebouw werd beschadigd. Het onbekende vallend voorwerp liet een rokende krater achter in het gebied waar het neerstortte. Aan de hand van de omvang van de krater en het wrak wordt gestelt dat het object ongeveer drie meter in diameter meet.
De lokale politie arriveerde op de scène, verzamelde de metaalresten en stuurde hen op voor testen. Het object kon niet worden geïdentificeerd. Het lijkt niet op iets. Een van de theorieën is een gasballon explosie, “aldus een woordvoerder van het Russische ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken.
Dit evenement is niet de eerste in zijn soort. In 2009, waren veel bewoners getuige van een reusachtige UFO die zich met hoge snelheid in de lucht verplaatste boven Chita. Tegelijkertijd werd het incident uitgebreid belicht in de Russische media.
Is er een verband tussen de 2009 waarneming en de 2015 crash? Alleen de Russische autoriteiten weten het…
2 Large UFO Orbs Seen Near Calbuco Volcano During Eruption In Chile'.
2 Large UFO Orbs Seen Near Calbuco Volcano During Eruption In Chile'.
Chile's Calbuco volcano erupted for the first time in over 42 years on Wednesday, creating a remarkable scene of smoke plumes and ash shooting into the sky. A second eruption Wednesday night blasted red-hot rocks skyward and produced an extraordinary display of volcanic lightning.
The eruption forced authorities to evacuate 1,500 residents of Ensenada, a nearby town, as well as two smaller communities.
A high alert was issued by the National Mining and Geology Service, preventing access to the area around the volcano. Calbuco is also near the cities of Puerto Varas and Puerto Montt, some 600 miles south of the Chilean capital, Santiago.
Parts of Argentina reported heavy ash falling after the eruption.

43 Dinosaur Eggs Discovered in China by Construction workers
43 Dinosaur Eggs Discovered in China by Construction workers
April 23, 2015- The Chinese city that holds the world record for largest number of dinosaur eggs has added to its collection after dozens more were unearthed at a construction site.
A nest containing 43 dinosaur egg fossils was found in the city of Heyuan in southern China’s Guangdong province, China’s state news agency Xinhua said.
Nineteen of the eggs are intact but what dinosaur they are from remains a mystery, Du Yanli, curator of the city’s dinosaur museum said on Monday.
“These eggs are large in size, and one even has a diameter of 13cm,” Du said.
All the eggs, which were found Sunday, have been sent to the museum for further preservation and research.
Nearly 17,000 dinosaur eggs have been found in Heyuan since 1996, when a group of children playing at a building site first came across some fossils.
The museum has been recognised by the Guinness Book of World Records for its collection of 10,008 dinosaur egg fossils, the largest in the world.
All of the eggs come from the late Cretaceous period (89-65 million years ago), according to the Guinness website. They include eggs from oviraptorid and duck-billed dinosaurs.
Antediluvian civilizations: numerus submerged ancient cities worldwide
Antediluvian civilizations: numerus submerged ancient cities worldwide
April 23, 2015 - Even though most scientists will deny it, among the scientific community there has always been that slight possibility pointing towards the existence of the so-called antediluvian civilizations that were destroyed 11,500 years ago due to the sudden and extreme rise in Earths sea levels.
Numerous ancient cities have been discovered in the recent years pointing toward a strong possibility of the existence of ancient civilizations and cities like Atlantis.
Worldwide cultures have left written texts that speak of great floods, some of them are the following: Atrahasis (Sumerian myth), the epic of Gilgamesh (Babylonian legend), the Bible (the Hebrews), Shujing (classical Chinese history ), Matsya Purana and Shatapatha Brahmin (Hindu sacred texts dating from the first millennium BC), Plato’s Timaeus and Crizia (Greece) and the Popul Vuh (the Maya civilization), among others.
Bimini underwater street
One of the first cities to be found under the sea was actually discovered in the vicinity of the island of Bimini in the Bahamas. While swimming, in September 1968, Dr. Valentine suddenly saw what he believed was a paved street with huge blocks of rectangular and polygonal shaped stones under water. The stones that make up the construction have lengths up to five meters and are “perfectly” sculpted. Strangely, the underwater stones bare a mysteriously close similarity with the stones found at Sacsayhuaman, the imposing ancient structure located a few kilometers from Cusco, at 3300 meters above the sea level. According to Dr. Valentine and other researchers like underwater archaeologist Robert Marx, believe these underwater structures are clearly artificial and they believe they have originated in the glacial era.
Mysterious submerged streets of the coast of Florida.
In 1969, the crew of the US submarine Aluminaut found another incredible discovery in the vicinity of the coast of Florida. According to reports, they had found the remains of an underwater city 900 meters below the surface. Among mysterious structures, they believe they found a gigantic “avenue” of 20 kilometers in length. According to the crew, traces of aluminum, silicon and magnesium oxide were found.
The submerged monuments of Yonaguni.
One of the most incredible discoveries of underwater structures was made in 1987 in the vicinity of the Yonaguni Island. The oldest of the Ryu Kiu islands in Japan. The Yonaguni monument is a megalithic formation found 40 meters below the surface, that, according to numerous researchers, points towards the existence of and ancient civilization that inhabited the area.
Masaaki Kimura, a marine geologist at the University of Ryu Kyu, has studied the underwater structures for 15 years. According to Kimura these underwater structures are the remains of a 5,000 year old city.
According to the underwater archaeologist Sean Kingsley, the submerged city of Yonaguni would correspond to a pre-Flood era city, when glaciers covered much of the northern hemisphere and the sea level was lower than today.
The submerged city of Khambhat
In 2000, researchers discovered, off the coast of Gujarat in India, mysterious structures that pointed toward the existence of an ancient city on the seabed. In 2001, the discovery was confirmed by the Minister for Science and Technology Murli Manohar Joshi when he officially admitted that it was an underwater city that was destroyed by the great flood. In the same year, the remains of wood and pottery were found in the vicinity of the archaeological site. These findings were carbon-dated. According to the tests, researchers believe the these mysterious underwater ruins are between 13,000 to 31,300 years old. The underwater city of Khambhat is believed to be the oldest underwater city found to date.
The mega city found in the Caribbean
Researchers were performing underwater explorations in the Caribbean Sea, off the coast of Cuba with the help of a robotic submarine in May 2001. What they found at a depth of 600 meters was anything but what they expected to find. An area of over 20 square kilometers covered in structures, pyramids and other manmade buildings. It’s a gigantic underwater complex that according to mainstream archaeology and researchers, does not exist. According to geologist ManuelIturralde, who participated in the research, it is possible that the submerged ruins found belonged to an antediluvian civilization, dating back to 10.000 BC. Images of the ocean floor confirmed the existence of gigantic granite blocks, circular and perpendicular formations. This discovery has led to several theories that propose that theYucatan peninsula was once connected with Cuba with a narrow earth bridge. Researchers from Mexico believe that these underwater remains could be attributed to an ancient civilization like the one that built ancient Teotihuacan.
Is NASA hiding a Dark Secret about why we never returned to the Moon?
Is NASA hiding a Dark Secret about why we never returned to the Moon?
April 23, 2015 - Is there an “Alien Base” on the Dark Side of the Moon?
Have you ever wondered why we haven’t returned to the moon? The truth is, NASA is hiding a very dark secret from us. More and more people are coming forward with stories that might prove this is true. Rumors say that there is an Alien Moon Base on the far side of the moon, the side we never see from Earth.
Did you ever wonder why the Moon landings stopped and why we have not tried to build a Moon Base? It does seem like a better and easier idea than a floating space station with no access to any raw materials or supplies? According to the NASA Astronaut Neil Armstrong the aliens have a base on the Moon and told us in no uncertain terms to get off and stay off the Moon!
Sound far fetched? Milton Cooper, a Naval Intelligence Officer tells us that not only does the Alien Moon Base exist but the U.S. Naval Intelligence Community refers to the Alien Moon Base as “Luna,” that there is a huge mining operation going on there, and that is where the aliens keep their huge mother ships while the trips to Earth are made in smaller “flying saucers”.
LUNA: The Alien base on the far side of the Moon. It was seen and filmed by the Apollo astronauts. A base, a mining operation using very large machines, and the very large alien craft described in sighting reports as mother ships exist there. -Milton Cooper
On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys talk with Betty Andreasson and Bob Luca. Betty Andreasson was born Betty Aho in January 07, 1937 to parents Waino and Eva Aho. Betty attended school in Westminster and Gardner MA. As a youngster Betty was always interested in art and became a talented self taught artist in adulthood. She married her first husband James Andreasson in 1954 and they went on to have seven children. Ultimately there were problems in the marriage and after a long separation they divorced in 1977. Later in 1977 Betty met her husband Bob Luca and they were married in 1978. Betty is well known for her UFO experiences which have been written about in five books by author Raymond E. Fowler.
Betty has been featured on numerous TV and Radio shows as well as newspaper and magazine articles. She has traveled the Country lecturing about her experiences and has found that meeting so many people from all over the Country, many which had experienced the UFO phenomena in one form or another as well, was in itself a rewarding experience. For a number of years Betty and Bob were unsettled and changed residences several times while living in CT and finally moving to VA in 1995. After living in VA for approximately five years they moved to West Palm Beach FL. where they enjoyed the warm winters and total lack of snow.
Bob Luca was born on March 27, 1939 in Meriden, CT to parents Anthony and Anne Luca. Bob attended grade school and high school in Meriden and graduated in 1957. His main interests while growing up were always how mechanical and electrical things worked. Post high school, Bob worked as a mechanic. He met Betty and they married in 1978 in Meriden, CT. Bob and Betty have both had abduction experiences separately and together as well.

New Mysterious Nazca Lines Discovered in Peru
New Mysterious Nazca Lines Discovered in Peru
April 22, 2015 - New geoglyphs that had never been seen before were found in the Nazca desert. The discovery was made by pilot and researcher Eduardo Herrán Gómez de la Torre, who was flying over the hills of the El Ingenio Valley and Pampas de Jumana in the Nazca desert after a recent sandstorm uncovered them in July.
The largest geoglyph, which is about 200 feet (60 meters) long, seems to have a shape of a snake, while the others depict a bird, something that looks like a llama, and zig-zags.
Researchers believe that the newfound geoglyphs were created during the period between the Paracas and Nazca civilizations, which is still to be confirmed, writes the Peruvian newspaper El Comerico.
The so-called Nazca Lines, or the geoglyphs carved into the Peruvian desert, still remain a mystery. The original ones were discovered in 1935, and it was established that they had been carved between 2,000 and 1,500 years ago.
The enigmatic lines cover a 450-kilometer-square area in the Peruvian desert and depict animals, fictional beings, plants, and geometric shapes.
Researchers believe that the lines were created by removing the fragments of rocks coated with iron-oxide and revealing the lighter sand below, which emphasized their contrast to the rest of the area. There are also huge geoglyphs in Egypt, Malta, United States (Mississippi and California), Chile, Bolivia and in other countries.
There are plenty of theories about their possible origin, but no one has managed to find out by whom and for what purpose they were built.
Some versions suggest that the Nazca lines are a landing strip for alien visitors, others claim that they were a celestial calendar created by the ancient Nazca civilization and were used for rituals, which could also be confirmed by the fact that the lines were built between 200 BC and 600 AD.
However, it is still unclear which explanation is true. To keep your mind open and learn about the alternative versions of the origin and purpose of Nazca lines, we suggest watching the videos below.

The Dogon Tribe of Africa and Their Extraterrestrial History
The Dogon Tribe of Africa and Their Extraterrestrial History
April 22, 2015 - One the most amazing sources of evidence of our ancestors coming from the stars is the history of the Dogon Tribe of Africa. There are between 400,000 and 800,000 Dogon in a remote civilization in the central plateau region of Mali in Africa.
The Dogon culture is known for its detailed, meaningful art and tribal customs, but the Dogon are mostly known for their ancient, accurate cosmology and the legends of their ancestors from Sirius.
The Importance of the Dogon hit the western world in 1930 when French anthropologists first heard legends from the Dogon priests. The legends were passed down through many generations and documented through artwork.
The Dogon spoke of an extraterrestrial species from the Sirius Star System, referred to as the Nommos, who visited them on earth. The Nommos were an aquatic race of humanoid creatures, similar to mermaids. This was amazing to hear because the god, Isis, of Babylon is depicted as a mermaid and associated with Sirius.
The Dogon say that the Nommos descended to earth from the heavens in a great boat, accompanied with extreme wind and loud noise.
The Dogon explained that the Sirius system had a companion star, but it cannot be seen from earth due to the brightness of Sirius A. Researchers have found Dogon artifacts dating back over 400 years depicting orbits of these stars.
Years later, in 1970, astronomers finally had good enough telescopes to zoom in on Sirius and they photographed Sirius B. The Dogon were right!
They also identified the moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn without the use of a telescope. How could they knowthis?
Being only 8 light years away, Sirius A is the brightest Star in the Earth sky. Sirius B is an extremely heavy, dense and tiny white dwarf star, smaller than the earth, but weighing 8X more than our Sun. It is gravitationally bound to Sirius A and part of the same solar system.
White dwarfs form when a star runs out of fuel. They begin to collapse on themselves, not being large enough to supernova.
Going back for hundreds of years ever since the Nommos came to visit the Dogon, they have held a ceremony every 50 years to celebrate the orbit of Sirius A and Sirius B. Astronomers later confirmed their orbit to be almost exactly 50 years!

The 223 Ancient Nubian Pyramids
The 223 Ancient Nubian Pyramids
April 22, 2015 - It is hard to keep up with the neighbors, especially if your neighbor is Egypt. Hence, whereas Egypt typifies pyramids, the Nubian pyramids, south of Egypt’s border, are often seen as the Nubians trying to keep up with the Egyptians, but utterly failing to do so.
Still, there are 223 pyramids in ancient Nubia, roughly double the amount of pyramids in Egypt.
However, they are small in size; skeptics could argue it is quantity, rather than quality. Nevertheless, the 20th century British writer Basil Davidson described Meroë, one location in which a huge concentration of Nubian pyramids is located, as one of the largest archaeological sites in the world.
Unfortunately, all the tombs at Meroë have been plundered, most infamously by Italian explorer Giuseppe Ferlini (1800-1870) who smashed the tops off 40 pyramids in a quest for treasure in 1834.
Ferlini tried to sell the treasure of Queen Amanishakheto’s pyramid (involving exquisite gold amulets, signet rings and necklaces) when he returned to Europe. Collectors did not believe that such a treasure could come from black Africa; they thought he was trying to pass off fakes.
Indeed, they were jewels of great quality and beauty and often influenced by Greek art; customers didn't expect to find deep in the heart of Africa depictions resembling those of Egyptian or classical Greek art.
Still, Ferlini found only one cache of gold and it is unsurprising that he is not too fondly remembered in Sudan today.
There were three Kushite kingdoms:
the first had Kerma as capital and existed from 2400 to 1500 BC
the second centered on Napata (1000–300 BC)
the third was that of Meroë (300 BC–300 AD)
Originally influenced by their northern neighbors, eventually, the Nubians were even able to invade, conquer and unify Egypt, when the king of Napata ruled as a Pharaoh of the 25th Dynasty, a rule that ended with the Assyrian conquest in 656 BC.
Though the Nubian kingdoms must have been aware of the pyramids that lined the Nile valley further north, it was only during their domination of Egypt that the royal sites of Napata and its successor Meroë became associated with any pyramidal activity in Nubia itself. That the Nubian kings definitely saw the Egyptian monuments is known from an account of Pharaoh Piye.
After taking control of most of Egypt, Piye set out for Heliopolis to worship the sun god and celebrate his coronation as king of Egypt, before returning to Napata.
The first series of Nubian pyramids were built at the site of el-Kurru and included the tombs of King Kashta and his son Piye (Piankhi), together with Piye’s successors Shabaka, Shabataka and Tanwetamani, and 14 queens’ pyramids.
The Napatan pyramids were sited at Nuri, on the west bank of the Nile in Upper Nubia. This necropolis was the burial place of 21 kings and 52 queens and princes. The oldest and largest pyramid at Nuri is that of the Napatan king and 25th Dynasty Pharaoh Taharqa.
But the most extensive and best known Nubian pyramid site is at Meroë, which is located between the fifth and sixth cataracts of the Nile, approximately 100 kilometers north of Khartoum, the modern capital of Sudan. During the Meroitic period, over forty kings and queens were buried in that pyramid field.
The Nubian pyramids differ from the Egyptian edifices: they are built of stepped courses of horizontally positioned stone blocks and range from approximately six to thirty meters in height; they are, to all intents and purposes, rather unimpressive.
What makes them impressive is the sheer quantity of them that was cramped in a small area.
What makes them a sad archaeological site is that all were plundered in ancient times, but wall reliefs preserved in the tomb chapels reveal that their royal occupants were mummified, covered with jewellery and laid to rest in wooden mummy cases, revealing that these Nubian pyramids definitely seem to have been tombs.
El-Kurru, about 13 km south from Gebel Barkal, was excavated by G. Reisner in 1918-19. The site includes, as mentioned, the pyramid of Piankhi, which has a base length of about eight meters and a slope of probably about 68 degrees – much steeper than the 51 degrees of the Great Pyramid – though eight meters is, of course, miniscule compared to the floor plan of the Great Pyramid.
It was the largest pyramid ever built at Nuri, and is unique among the Nubian pyramids in having been built in two stages. The first pyramid was encased in smooth sandstone.
Drawings and written reports of the early 19th century reveal the truncated top of the inner pyramid projecting from the top of the decaying outer pyramid.
The outer pyramid was the first of a type with stepped courses and planed corners. It had a sloped angle of about 69 degrees. An enclosure wall tightly encircled the pyramid, but Reisner was not able to unearth any traces of a chapel.
Inside, Reisner found a stairway of 19 steps that opened to the east and that led to the burial chamber. Piankhi’s body had been placed on a bed that rested in the middle of the chamber on a stone bench.
The bench’s four corners had been cut away to receive the legs of the bed, so that the bed platform lay directly on the bench.
This is conclusive proof that these pyramids were tombs, but it is in the pyramid of Nuri that is the most elaborate structure.
King Taharqa was the first to build in this location and his pyramid is, by Nubian standards, impressive: 51.75 meters square and between 40 to 50 meters high.
The entrance was by an eastern stairway trench, north of the pyramid’s central axis, reflecting the alignment of the original smaller pyramid.
Three steps led to a doorway, with a molded frame, which opened to a tunnel, widened and heightened into an antechamber that had a barrel-vaulted ceiling.
Six massive pillars carved from the natural rock divided the burial chamber into two side aisles and a central nave, each with a barrel-vaulted ceiling. The entire chamber was surrounded by a moat-like corridor, with steps leading down from in front of the antechamber doorway.
The Nuri pyramids were generally much larger than those at el-Kurru, reaching heights of twenty to thirty meters. The last king to be buried at Nuri died in about 308 BC, before construction began in Meroë.
It remained the royal cemetery for 600 years, until 350 AD. As at Nuri, the pyramids were stepped and built on a plinth, but now each triangular face was framed by smooth bands of raised masonry along the wedges, where the sides met.
The Nubian Pyramid Age is far more recent than the Egyptian exercise. And that is what makes the endeavor intriguing.
But, perhaps unlike Egypt, it was also directly linked with the Nubian economy. As Roman wealth declined, there was less demand for Meroë's luxury goods.
At the same time, Meroë's Red Sea trade to the Indian Ocean was lost to her better placed neighbor, the Ethiopian kingdom of Aksum.
In about 350 AD, the army of the Aksumite King Ezana invaded the island of Meroë. By then the capital had already been abandoned and the region was in the hands of a people whom the Aksumites referred to as the Noba.
As such, in 350 AD, the Pyramid Age along the Nile truly ended. The pyramid adventure of the Nubian kings seems to have been a method to integrate their nation with the Egyptians, who themselves had, by 600 BC, long abandoned pyramid building.
The Nubian pyramids were clearly tombs, but is that all they were? The answer is no.
The pyramids were, as in Egypt, just one aspect of a larger whole, in which the Nubian kings apparently rekindled ancient Egypt’s flame.
The key seems to have been – once again – the involvement of the Heliopolitan priests, the men that have been commonly identified as those behind the original Pyramid Age.
In a generalized way, we could state that pyramid building was a particular preoccupation of the Heliopolitan priesthood; temples were the main bailiwick of the Amunite priesthood, who had risen to the forefront of Ancient Egypt during the Middle and New Kingdom, when the capital had moved to Thebes/ Luxor.
It seems that with the Nubian invasion – which had largely only been possible because of the demise in power of Thebes/ Luxor – the Heliopolitan priesthood was once again on the rise.
Excavations at many Napatan sanctuaries, especially at Gebel Barkal, have revealed that the temples were generally built directly over the foundations of ruined New Kingdom (read: Amunite) temples.
About 1450 BCE, the Egyptian pharaoh Thutmose III had extended his conquests to Gebel Barkal and established it as the southern border of his empire.
The city he founded there was called Napata. The Egyptians remained only about 300 years.
The temple at Gebel Barkal was first excavated between February and April 1916 by George Reisner and his Boston team and again between March and April 1987 by the new Boston team led by Timothy Kendall. In 1989 Kendall and his staff resurveyed the monument.
Their conclusion was that the Napatan rulers deliberately restored religious sites that had been abandoned by the Egyptian pharaohs when they evacuated Nubia some three centuries before.
The Nubian kings used “Amunite temples”, but converted them to Heliopolitan sun worship. But they did not totally abandon the Amunite beliefs; after all, these Nubian temples had been built according to strict Amunite guidelines, and therefore would include features specific to that cult.
By restoring the old Egyptian cult places, especially Gebel Barkal, the Nubian kings were able to present themselves both within Nubia and especially at Thebes as the true successors of the pharaohs of the New Kingdom and the direct heirs to their throne.
Taharqa was not only the one who created the most elaborate pyramid, he also transformed the Barkal site into the stage for the celebration of past, present and eternal monarchy, and the perpetual recreation of the world.
Why here?
Due to the reverse direction of the Nile at this location, Taharqa’s tomb, though still on the “west” bank, paradoxically lay to the east, the place of sunrise and rebirth. Gebel Barkal, on the “east” bank, lay paradoxically to the west, the place of sunset and death.
An important question to be posed is why the pyramid field lay around Gebel Barkal. The first explanation is economic, since the site was seen as an ideal crossing point for the Nile, as well as a crossing point for the caravans crossing the desert from Kawa to Meroë.
The second explanation is religious. The sacred mountain Barkal (Barkal is Arabic, meaning both "holy" and "pure") measures 74 meters, is made from sandstone and has a flat top. Seen from the west, it looks like the royal Egyptian ureaus, topped by the white crown.
For the ancient Egyptians, the site must have been considered as the Creator God himself having sculpted the mountain, indicating it should become a royal, sacred location. From the east, it looks like the serpent with the sun disc on its top.
The interplay of the tomb and the mountain thus symbolized creation, death and rebirth simultaneously and Gebel Barkal, under Taharqa, was designed to be the ultimate and permanent centre of kingship in the Nile Valley.
It was to be the eternal link between the creator god Atum-Ra and Mankind, and between the eternal king and the living king.
We therefore find that in Nubia, the pyramid and the sites on which they were built contained far more symbolism than merely a funerary aspect – the sites were directly linked with kingship.
And, as such, they conform to “the Pyramid Template”.
Last Friday, Dan Aykroyd appeared on the third episode of The Huffington Post’s new The HuffPost Show, and among other topics, shared his views on the U.S. Air Force’s UFO cover-up and some details about his own UFO sightings.
The HuffPost Show is hosted by founding editor of The Huffington Post Roy Sekoff and former professor and veteran HuffPost Live host Marc Lamont Hill. The show is a new weekly news magazine style show, and the third episode, featuring a long interview with Aykroyd (the interview can be seen here), was aired online on Friday.
The conversation turned to UFOs when Hill asked, “I said if I am ever going to meet Dan Aykroyd I am going to ask him about this. You believe in UFOs. Is that right?”
There was a slight hesitation by Aykroyd, and a few giggles from off camera, but Aykroyd headed straight into his answer.
Aykroyd told Hill, “I do. I have seen four, and I can’t say that they are alien craft and neither can the Air Force. The Air Force has been very interested in this. They don’t deny the existence of these hyperdynamic, super aerodynamic craft. They don’t deny.”
Although Aykroyd says the Air Force does not deny the existence of alien spacecraft, he explains why he thinks there is a cover-up of that information.
Aykroyd continued, “Their anguish comes in that they can’t tell you. They want to tell you anything but that they are extraterrestrial. Any excuse at all, even if they are unknown or unsolved. The Air Force cannot just come out and admit that there are extraterrestrial beings far in advanced of our culture that have built these machines.”

Aykroyd also says he thinks that although there is a cover-up, the Air Force really doesn’t know much more than the rest of us. He says, “They are very interested in what is going on, but like us, they don’t know.”
Hill then asked Aykroyd if he was willing to share more information about the UFOs he had seen.
“Two specifically were definitely aerial constructs of some kind,” Aykroyd explained. “One of them with a light, and one of them dull gray, and they were structures – one of them going very slow, one of them hovering over me.”
As for the other two, Aykroyd continued, “Then there were the two that my wife and friends and I saw – a high altitude sighting many years ago in Martha’s vineyard. Two flying side by side. They were at about 100,000 feet up, and they were going fast.”
Aykroyd then went on to share the account of one of his drivers. He says the driver used to be a cook at the Air Force’s Strategic Air Command. The driver says one day a bunch of guys were gathered around a radar screen watching an object that was traveling at 70,000 miles per hour and performing “whip turns.”
“I believe that there are probably many species coming and going and that the Air Force is very interested, but they can’t come out and say,” says Aykroyd. “Because then you’re going to go, ‘well wait a minute, the parish priest, the cop on the street, the President — you don’t got the power. They’ve got the power!’”
If that were to happen, Aykroyd says there may be a “complete breakdown of society.”
Aykroyd also recommended a book about UFOs and the CIA and FBI by Dr. Bruce Maccabee. The book is titled, The FBI-CIA-UFO Connection: The Hidden UFO Activities of USA Intelligence Agencies, and it reviews documents that Maccabee received via the Freedom of Information Act. Maccabee, a physicist, spent thirty-six years at the Naval Surface Warfare Center.
Maccabee’s book came out in September, 2014, and on March 27, 2015, Aykroyd posted about the book on his Facebook account. He wrote:
March 27…Ex-Naval Surface Warfare employee and physicist Dr. Bruce Maccabee has assembled the most extensively and meticulously researched body of documentary evidence ever compiled on the U.S. government’s genuine interest in the UFO phenomena. The USAF has NEVER denied the existence of these super-performance aerodynamic vehicles. The Air Force’s continued anguish over PUBLIC disclosure is not due to the military’s genuinely admitted reality of these machines’ existence but due to the government’s struggle to categorize the phenomena as being ANYTHING but extra planetary in origin
Go to Amazon.com to purchase Bruce Maccabee’s new book: “The FBI-CIA-UFO Connection: The Hidden UFO Activities of USA Intelligence Agencies
Maccabee, of course, was very happy with Aykroyd’s plug on Facebook and on The HuffPost Show. On Monday, Maccabee posted on his Facebook: “Thanks to the endorsement by Aykroyd, the publicizing efforts of my wife, Jan, and AOL’s mention of Aykroyd’s sightings, the FBI-CIA-UFO book is, at 9 – 10 PM Monday, the #1 best selling UFO book in several of Amazon’s categories.”
At the end of the interview Aykroyd pointed out that 50% of the public believes in UFOs, and that he believes because he “witnessed four really unexplained craft.”
There was some applause off camera, and Sekoff pointed out a guy who appeared to agree with Aykroyd. Aykroyd replied, “maybe he saw something. Maybe.”
Aykroyd can be seen talking about his UFO beliefs for two hours straight on a video titled Dan Aykroyd Unplugged on UFOs. OpenMinds.tv was also able to catch up with Aykroyd a few years in Scottsdale, Arizona at a BevMo liquor store where he was promoting his Crystal Head Vodka. A topic that was also discussed on The HuffPost Show. A bottle of his vodka can be seen on the coffee table on the set.
Hundreds of African villagers claimed to have seen a floating inter dimensional city.
The incredible event took place in a local border village called Dulali, in Lanzai South Ward, Darazo, Local Government of Bauchi State, Nigeria.
According to reports, Saidu Meshai Dulali, a village tea brewer, had “just finished his morning prayer at the local Mosque and was stoking up the stove for his day’s work.”
When suddenly, Saidu became aware of a pervading extremely bright light enveloping the atmosphere, followed by a sudden realisation that the heavens were falling on the village. As he looked up at the encroaching sky, he saw the most fascinating view of his forty years existence on planet earth. According to Saidu:
“There appeared a wide, large mass of something that looked like a cloud from nowhere and it was flying slowly over the village just at the height of an average tree.
“The cloud was transparent and I saw beautiful tall buildings inside it. It was like a flying city. And from it I could hear the sound of machines making noise just as you would hear at Ashaka cement factory.”
To be fair if Saidu had of been the only witness of this brilliant yet strange experience, it pretty much would have been impossible to take his personal testimony as fact. But it was then discovered after his statement that the ‘flying city’ was witnessed by almost all of the villagers in the local area at the time, in fact hundreds of them, the Chief Imam of the sole village Mosque inclusive. Children and adults all saw and corroborated the EXACT same story!!!
How many of you have at one time or another woken up unable to speak or move? If you have, you are not alone.
The classic definition for this phenomenon is called sleep paralysis. It may last a few seconds, several moments, or occasionally longer and usually occurs right before you are about to fall asleep or wake up. Many people report feeling a “presence” that is often described as malevolent, threatening or, evil, and usually experience a tremendous amount of terror.
The presence is usually seen, felt and even heard. People also report unique experiences like the sensation of floating or being outside the body. They believe the phenomenon to be an extremely spiritual one.
In the modern medical world, these experiences are defined as hypnagogic and hypnopompic hallucinations (0), which is often the explanation when conventional modern views of spiritual experience is combined with medical ideas that label direct spiritual experiences as psycho-pathological. It is well understood that sleep paralysis coincides with physiological mechanisms in the brain. What is not well understood are the strange experiences individuals have when experiencing sleep paralysis. The discussion of spiritual experience as an explanation for a bizarre and complex phenomenon that little is known about has been suppressed thus discouraging discussion of it in modern society.(1)
Beginning in college and graduate school I was particularly interested in the beliefs of ordinary people, especially the ones that were treated as nonsense in the academic world. The academic world treats spiritual belief in general that way. I was interested in alternative medicine at the same time for the same reason. Right from the beginning I was convinced that ordinary people are smarter, are more sensible than they’re given credit for by scholars, and that traditions that are wide spread and deeply held probably have more rational basis, and more observation built into them than the theories that I was taught in graduate school. I couldn’t believe that all the beliefs of ordinary people that are not part of the academic worldview were nonsense.
I have the impression that the academic world might be a little to narrow, and that regular people might have something to offer about it (sleep paralysis) through their experience and what they believed about things. There are beliefs that are based on experience that have been dismissed as superstitious beliefs that bear much more investigation, these are experiences that are built into the spiritual traditions all over the world. In the modern western world, for at least the past one hundred years these phenomena have been explained on the basis of psychopathology. So the discovery that those experiences are common and that they occur among ‘normal’ people, that they are not in fact indicative of any type of disease has tremendous importance for medicine. This isn’t a new phenomenon, we erased the knowledge of these experiences from the cultural repertoire – Dr David J Hufford, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus, Penn State Medical School (1)
Right from the get go, almost all scientific approaches to the phenomenon of sleep paralysis assume that the experiences that stem from it are hallucinations. Rather than coming from the standpoint of complete neutrality, most studies completely shut out the idea of any reality behind ‘hallucinations.’ Just because there are measured biological and chemical activities during the sleep paralysis phenomenon does not mean there is a causal relationship between the two. There are other things we must take into consideration and as quantum science is showing us, there are definitely worlds within our world that we are not able to perceive easily yet. There is definitely a non-physical aspect to science in general that we are just beginning to wake up to.
The day science begins to study non-physical phenomenon, it will make more progress than it made in all the previous centuries of its existence – Nikola Tesla
Spiritual Experience
Modern scholars have found spirit and spirituality hard to define, and as mentioned earlier usually places these topics within the circle of ridicule amongst the scientific community. Many reading this probably have a good idea of the terms that fit under the umbrella of “spirit” or “spiritual.” They involve out of body experiences, visits from entities not of this world, near death experiences, frequency, vibration and more.
It’s important to realize that many experiences people have within the “spiritual” realm occur when one is fully conscious, awake and alert and not during what sleep researchers call sleep paralysis. It’s quite possible that our level of scientific understanding is not advanced enough to explain certain phenomenon, so sometimes they are grouped into the category ofhallucinations when they are really phenomenon we do not understand and cannot yet explain in a scientific manner.
At the same time, some of the phenomenon described that arise from sleep paralysis could very well be hallucinations, although I don’t believe this to be the case. I am very open to the idea that what is experienced for some during ‘sleep paralysis’ is indeed intertwined with the true nature of reality we clearly do not yet fully understand. The point is we don’t yet know for sure, and for the scientific community to assume and label them as definite hallucinations and as a figment of the imagination is limiting.
Scientific evidence for out of body phenomenon isn’t prevalent, but it’s hard when most scientific phenomenon is suppressed. I’m referring to developments within the world that are classified for the sake of national security. Recent leaks from the NSA were responsible for the very first public disclosure of a black budget, and the Canadian government was recently outed for the muzzling of scientists(2). This coincides with the remote viewing experiments that involved the intelligence community and Stanford University, among others. (3)(4)(5)
It’s interesting that there is also science and official research behind these types of phenomenon that give further credibility to it. It is even more interesting that it is within the hands of the intelligence community, extremely classified and washed away in secrecy, just like the experiments conducted at Stanford University. Among the varied hallucinations associated with sleep paralysis, out of body experiences and vestibular motor sensations represent a distinct factor.(6) Remote viewing is the ability of individuals to describe a remote geographical location up to several hundred thousand kilometers away, this phenomenon has been proven time and time again, and shortly after its publication the program was instantly shut down by the department of defense.
We have many examples of phenomenon that would fit under the “spiritual” umbrella, and who are we to say that the experiences that occur within sleep paralysis are not indeed real phenomenon. Sometimes, ideas and concepts can be a threat to power, to control and to the overall perception humanity has of reality as a collective. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. If the planet changed the way it looked at this phenomenon, surely it would contribute in one of the biggest paradigm shifts the planet has ever seen, and this is exactly what is continuing to unfold on planet Earth today.
The ridicule of these phenomenon is a level of social control. Scholars, academics and elite intellectuals in general constantly describe these things as if not indicative of insanity, them being primitive, and being the product of a lack of education. These concepts in the realm of anthropology and history are taken to be are product of imagination – Dr David J Hufford (1)
My Experience With Sleep Paralysis
When I was a child, I remember having a number of lucid dreams. They seemed so real and I felt one hundred percent conscious during the experience. I was able to do whatever I desired whilst dreaming. My first experience with sleep paralysis didn’t occur until I was a little bit older. The very first time it happened I remember suddenly waking up from a loud bang, a bright flash of light (although my eyes were closed) and a loud ringing in my ears. I had the ability to open my eyes, but I couldn’t move my body. It’s almost as if my brain was awake but my body was still sleeping. I was terrified, and the reason I didn’t open my eyes is because I felt the presence of two beings on my left side, and two beings on my right side and I didn’t want to see. Whether they were there or not, I don’t know, whether I was dreaming or not, I don’t know.
Keep in mind that experiences like this occur when people are totally conscious, driving down the street, going about their everyday lives away from the time of sleep. Many people have totally consciousness experiences with phenomenon that seem to be beyond our understanding, they are not paralyzed and they are not asleep. I have also had totally conscious bizarre experiences away from sleep, that might contribute to my bias of my experiences within sleep paralysis being more than just hallucinations. This particular experience I had during sleep lasted approximately five minutes I would say, until I totally regained consciousness
Another time, again I woke up in the middle of the night. I could open my eyes and I was totally aware of my surroundings. I was on the road in a hotel room by myself, I could see the TV, I could see the lamp in the corner of the room as well as the chair. I could not turn my head but I could look around. Although my eyes felt heavy, I could indeed open them. I couldn’t move and was pretty scared, I remember thinking “not again, why is this happening to me.”
I saw a dark, shadowy figure come through the window, it seemed about 5 feet tall, I was on the left side of the bed and the window was in the right corner of the room. It came across the room, across the foot of my bed to the left side of my head. It put its mouth up to my ear and started to whisper rapidly. I could not understand what it was saying, but it was whispering extremely fast.
I had a few other experiences after that, and after I woke up from these experiences which were pretty scary, I started to desire more because I realized that although I couldn’t move, my consciousness was still there. I was still awake, alert and able to perceive the environment around me. The next time it happened, I assured myself that I would not react in fear, and that I would instead embrace the experience and try to “play” with it, explore and use this state of consciousness for further discovery about a potential world we are not able to experience, but are. The next time it happened, I reminded myself to stay calm, enjoy it and see what happens, this time I actually wanted to communicate with whatever I perceived to be there, or was there. When I did this, nothing presented itself. I still couldn’t move, but didn’t try to jolt myself out of it. I tried to float out of my body and was successful. I fully floated out of my body, but could only go so far, about one meter. I tried to go further but it was as if I was still attached to my body. This was a very cool experience, unfortunately after I decided to not react in fear, and play around the with experience, the experience stopped, and I never had it again.
These type of phenomenon are definitely intriguing, and nobody, including researchers within the scientific world should dismiss the experience one has while experiencing sleep paralysis as completely false. The scientific community should be comfortable in a place of neutrality, instead of characterizing a phenomenon as false without any evidence to suggest that be the case. They don’t have to ridicule it. I hope I’ve provided enough information within the article, as well as adequate sources for you to further your research if interested.
If you have experienced this phenomenon, I’d love for you to share your experiences within the comments section.
