The remains of a 200,000 year old advanced civilization found in Africa
The remains of a 200,000 year old advanced civilization found in Africa
The incredible discovery was made in South Africa, around 150 km west of port Maputo. There, we find the remains of a huge metropolis that measures, according to tests, around 1500 square kilometers. This ancient city is, according to researchers, part of an even larger community with about 10,000 square kilometers and is believed to have been constructed 160,000 to 200,000 years before Christ.
The region is somewhat remote and the “circles” have often been encountered by local farmers who assumed they were made by some indigenous people in the past. But, oddly, no one ever bothered to inquire about who could have made them or how old they were. This changed when researcher and author, Michael Tellinger, in association with Johan Heine, a local fireman and pilot who had looked at these ruins for years, decided to investigate them. Heine had the unique opportunity to see these incredible structures from the air and knew that their significance was not appreciated.
“When Johan first introduced me to the ancient stone ruins of southern Africa, he had no idea of the incredible discoveries we would make in the following years. The photographs, artifacts and evidence we accumulated, point towards a lost civilization that has never before been and precedes all others – not for a few hundred years, or a few thousand years … but many thousands of years.” – Tellinger
According to Tellinger, these discoveries are so incredible that It will need a complete paradigm shift in how we view our human history.
The surrounding geology is interesting due to the numbers gold mines located in the vicinity. Researchers have proposed that a vanished civilization from the distant past, could have lived and proposed in that part of the world while mining gold. They point to the Ancient Anunnaki:
The Anunnkai Timeline – Coming to Earth: (According to Sitchin)
450,000 B.C. After long wars, the atmosphere of Nibiru began to deteriorate and became a hostile place for life, The Anunnaki needed gold to repair their atmosphere. According to researchers, we can use gold nano particles to repair our damaged ozone layer.
445,000 A.C. The Anunnaki aliens landed on Earth and established their base in Eridu, wanting to extract gold from the Persian Gulf. They were led by Enki, son of Anu.
416,000 B.C. Gold production fell, which made Anu come to Earth. Beside him his other son Enlil arrived. Anu decided that mining would take place in Africa and promoted Enlil in charge of the Terran mission.
400,000 A. C. In southern Mesopotamia were seven developed nations. Among the most important were: “Sipar”, “Nippur” and “Shuruppak”. After the metal was refined, the ore was transported from Africa with ‘ships’ and sent into orbit.
You can take look at these incredible structures with Google Earth using the following coordinates:
Carolina: 25 55 ‘53.28? S / 30 16 ‘13.13? E
Badplaas: 25 47 ‘33.45? S / 30 40 ‘38.76? E
Waterval: 25 38 ‘07.82? S / 30 21 ‘18.79? E
Machadodorp: 25 39 ‘22.42? S / 30 17 ‘03.25? E
These incredible ruins mostly consist of stone circles, most have been buried in the sand and are only observable by plane or satellites. Some have been exposed to climate change that has removed the sand, revealing the walls and foundations.
“I see myself as someone quite open-minded but I admit that it took me over a year to figure it out, and I realized that we are actually dealing with the oldest structures ever built by man on Earth. The main reason for this is that we have been taught that nothing of significance has ever come from South Africa. Powerful civilizations all emerged in Sumeria and Egypt and other places. “- Tellinger
According to Telling: It shows that the Sumerians and even the Egyptians inherited all their knowledge from an earlier advanced civilization that lived at the southern tip of Africa more than 200,000 years ago… mining gold.
These were also the people who carved the first Horus bird, the first Sphinx, built the first pyramids and built an exact stone calendar right in the heart of it all. Adam’s Calendar is the flagship among millions of circular stone ruins, ancient roads, agricultural terraces and thousands of ancient mines, left behind by a vanished civilization which they now call the FIRST PEOPLE. These were the ancestors of all humans today with an advanced knowledge of energy fields through planet Earth.
They carved detailed images into the hardest rock, worshipped the sun, and are the first to carve an image of the Egyptian Ankh – key of life and universal knowledge, 200,000 years before the Egyptians came to light. Tellinger presents this groundbreaking new evidence in which is released in his latest book Temples Of The African Gods. It graphically exposes these discoveries and will undoubtedly be the catalyst for rewriting our ancient human history.
Barry resident Jeanie Rebane had an unusual UFO experience while driving last night. So moved by the event, she posted her drawing and her account of her experience on Facebook.
Double UFO Sighting Near Cardiff, Wales
Jeanie noticed two craft when she was driving down Salisbury road at 10:30pm last night. “I was about halfway down when suddenly this plane/craft/ufo with a wing span/s of nearly the width of the street, and so low it was just above the rooftops, was coming towards me. Then I saw there was another one just behind it that appeared to be following it. There was barely any noise and both were moving very slow. I was transfixed as they were so big, then they both glided off to the left over the houses at the top of Porthkerry Park. I couldn’t see any cabin or even the shape or body of plane just the huge big white lights, also it has smaller red lights (see drawing) underneath. It was awesome but freaky!”
Jeanie wondered if anyone else had seen anything like it? One of Jeanie’s Facebook friends, Carole Jenet, commented that she had seen them as well. “I saw them too and thought they were just two very, very strange planes. I was standing on the patio at 11pm, in Sunbury on Thames, on the river. I was facing south and these two planes/flying things came from behind me over the roof and headed towards the south coast. As we are near Heathrow I just thought they were huge planes of some kind, but we are not in the flight path here and there was no noise from any engines and the two were very low in the sky! What the hell were they?
Carole, who was staying with friends adds, “The lights were extremely bright on these things, far brighter than a normal plane.” carole speculated that they may have been Russian surveillance planes giving the UK the once over but as she says, “They were very slow moving and no noise!”
We’d be interested to know if anyone else had a similar UFO experience last night either in Cardiff or along the suggested flightpath towards London. …
Barry is near Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. Barry is famous for many things but the filming of Gavin & Stacey certainly put Barry and Barry Island on the map.

One Earth Message to crowdfund our first words to aliens
One Earth Message to crowdfund our first words to aliens
New Horizon probe could carry Earth's message of greeting into deep space
A crowdfunding project is bidding to commandeer Nasa’s Pluto probe and send if off into deep space to meet extraterrestrials with a message from the people Earth.
The plan is to upload 150MB of data, contributed by the backers of the One Earth Message campaign, to the tune of around 100 images and about an hour of audio recordings to the New Horizons craft whose current mission is to explore the surface of the dwarf planet and its moon Charon which lie at the furthest reaches of our solar system.
The project needs to reach its $500,000 goal of funding to make it fly along with NASA’s green light for the digital transfer of the message. Suggestions for what’s included in the transmission are of a map of the world complete with photos linked and tagged to specific locations.
Hubble Telescope
"It's not simply a photo contest," the project’s leader, Jon Lomberg, told Space.com. "It's a process that's going to find out what people want to send."
New Horizons is set to make the first-ever fly-by of Pluto on July 14. After its primary mission is complete, it will eventually head out into the Kuiper Belt - an asteroid belt-like region beyond our solar system - after which it’s hoped by Lomberg and his supporters that it may one day be found by an alien species possibly millions of years from now.
"We'll never know if this extraterrestrial audience that we're designing it for will receive it. But we do know that the people of Earth who participate, who play a role in it - it can literally change their lives."
The crowdfunding campaign is live on Fiat Physica just 3 per cent of the way towards its target but still 52 days left to draw in the pledges. You can support the project from as little as $5 but it’s a minimum of $50 to get your name written in the stars.
Many scientists today are opposed to the concept of God. Perhaps that's because modern science really can't stand infinity –– or the stage where a physical theory breaks down.
The ancient Indians and Greeks did not describe infinity with precise measurement, as current mathematicians try to do, but instead dealt with infinity as a philosophical insight. In Judaism, the Infinite Being (Ein-Sof) is often used romantically to represent eternal love or the “happily ever after.” Spiritual people accept as true that all life is contained within a vast field of infinite being.
Nevertheless, most materialists tend to believe in nothing. Mathematicians became skeptical of the notion of infinity in the late 1800s. John Wallis first used the notation ∞ for such a number in the 17th century. It was assumed by some physicists that no measurable quantity could have an infinite value. If an object of infinite value were to exist, any formula to calculate a transformed value would lead to an infinite result, which would be of no help since the result would be always the same. Infinity cannot be added to itself.
Since there were no experimental means to generate an infinite quantity, it was thought impossible for any physical body to have infinite mass or infinite energy. However, today there exist theoretical circumstances where the end result is infinity. One example is the description of black holes. The equations of the general theory of relativity allow for volume distributions of zero size, and consequently infinite mass. This is called a mathematical singularity.
Mathematicians are quick to point out that a singularity is the place where physical theories break down and modern science fails –– or encounters serious limitations. But need that be so?
In 1905, Albert Einstein published the theory of special relativity. Dealing with relative time dilation and length contraction, Einstein showed that the speed of light in a vacuum corresponds to infinity. Thus, when mathematical equations run into physical infinities, what would happen if ∞ were replaced with the speed of light? Maybe such formulas are still usable and do not break down.
Modern science has the same aversion to mathematical zero. The pre-Socratic Greek philosopher, Zeno of Elea, gave the earliest demonstrable accounts of mathematical infinity and showed that zero represents negative infinity. We can consider +∞ and -∞ as the same. The division of a physical quantity into smaller and smaller fractions (or infinitesimal quantities) also decreases without bound –– representing the concept of infinity.
If positive infinity can be replaced with the speed of light, what can be said of zero or negative infinity? Absolute zero is the temperature (-273.15C) at which all motion in matter stops and is believed to be impossible. While infinity is the fastest motion that a physical body can attain, zero is no motion at all. As a result, near-zero temperature represents a state of matter known as a Bose-Einstein condensate in which all bosons in matter fall into the same quantum state, also called a superatom. It is connected to the scientific principle of order and entropy (or disorder) according to the famous Second Law of Thermodynamics. But because a superatom is a non-thermal system, it is not subject to the second law –– and perfect order is equivalent to absolute zero.
Once we recognize that zero and infinity are not meager abstractions, but actually correspond to velocities of bodies in motion, we tend to see the world differently –– and readily bow to new possibilities. However, there also persists an uncompromising refusal to acknowledge the reality of infinity.
The German mathematician Georg Cantor published many papers related to infinity during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He identified the Absolute Infinite with God, but received pitiless condemnation. Henri Poincaré referred to Cantor's work as a disease infecting the discipline of mathematics. Leopold Kronecker described him as a charlatan and a corrupter of youth. Christian theologians saw Cantor's work as a challenge to the uniqueness of the infinite nature of God. As a result, the inventor of set theory suffered from chronic depression or bipolar disorder. Georg Cantor died in a mental institution where he had spent the final year of his life.
When I enlarged this UFO, I see that its really not a reflection. Its not made of light. Its a solid object that is in the sky. I feel that the UFO in the area was drawn there by the appearance of the rainbow and that the aliens were intrigued by it. This person was lucky enough to catch them in a digital photo, because the digital eye is capable of seeing light beyond the human eye spectrum. This UFO as you can see, can separate into two different ships. Good catch. SCW
News states (rough translation from Polish): UFO over Szczecin? Object (s) not to explain captured on PICTURE
We wanted to immortalize a beautiful rainbow, and photographed TO – wrote a letter to Szczecin readers with Warzymice.
I sent a photo taken on Sunday from the window of an apartment in Warzymicach.
We wanted to immortalize a beautiful rainbow that appeared in the sky, and in the evening, we watched effects, we pay attention to the object in the left corner of the photo. Certainly there was then no aircraft in the sky, otherwise it does not look like an airplane. Please each image to enlarge and look at the strange object. Maybe it’s actually a UFO over Szczecin?
Indeed, the object (or two objects) do not resemble anything that could be easily explained.
This is not a reflection of the lamp
In the early afternoon image as author, Mr. Marcus Warzymice, sent us another email, which refers to the critical comments that appeared on the forum under the text. He wrote:
I am the author of this photo and denies that the lamp was turned on when taking pictures. In addition, the images I took a few, and these “objects” are visible on only one. I do not know what it is, but certainly it is not a reflection of any lamp or light from the room, because any, was not included. Outside it was already very clear and sunny.
And he said to us Mr Maciej, who also took pictures of the rainbow in Warzymicach:
Hello, here are my pictures of UFOs, but the fact that the rainbow was beautiful and worthy of perpetuation.
Vreemde UFO waargenomen boven Siberische (Rusland) hot spot ( Video )
Er zijn plekken op aarde die zogenaamde UFO hotspots worden genoemd.
Lokaties waar vaker dan op andere onbekende vliegende objecten worden gesignaleerd.
Zuid Amerika is zo'n voorbeeld en dan vooral rondom de vulkanen zoals de Popocatépetl in Mexico.
Ook Rusland heeft zo zijn eigen UFO hotspots en de plaats Omsk in Siberië is daar één van. Niet alleen UFO’s, maar ook zaken zoals graancirkels worden daar veelvuldig gesignaleerd.
Op 15 mei van dit jaar nam een amateurfotograaf een aantal merkwaardige foto’s van een vliegende formatie lichten boven de Oblast (provincie) Omsk.
Dmitry nam de eerste foto toen hij rond één uur ’s middags op straat liep in de stad Tara, in de buurt van Omsk.
Een minuut later nam hij een tweede foto toen de lichten verdwenen achter de televisietoren.
Helaas heeft Dmitry niet meer foto’s genomen van dit bijzondere voorval.
De Engelse UFO expert Nick Pope heeft ook naar de foto’s gekeken en hij noemde ze fascinerend.
Hij oppert de mogelijkheid dat dit misschien ook te maken zou kunnen hebben met geheime militaire experimenten.
Een extra bijzondere samenloop is dat in Omsk een museum is waar zich een collectie langgerekte schedels bevindt die een aantal jaren geleden in een nabij gelegen woud werden ontdekt.
Ook hier wordt gezegd, net zoals in Peru en Mexico waar ook dit soort schedels wordt gevonden, dat men de schedel met opzet, bij leven, misvormde.
De meningen zijn hierover echter nogal verdeeld, met ook een grote groep die gelooft dat deze mensen van buitenaardse oorsprong zijn.
Wie weet zijn de UFO’s in Omsk en omstreken gerelateerd aan het feit dat daar al heel lang buitenaardsen op bezoek komen en/of gewoond hebben.
UFO Alien Abduction Case: Still Bothers Travis Walton
UFO Alien Abduction Case: Still Bothers Travis Walton
The most prolific abduction case in the history of ufology is the kidnapping case of Travis Walton, which happened more than 35 years ago. His disappearance has caused a hurricane of news controversy, reports, and skepticism. Throughout his entire adult life, Walton carried the emotional burden and the incident, for the most part, is his solo journey. Of course, there is no concrete evidence that an extraterrestrial spacecraft has abducted anyone. But it is beyond one’s control if one person claims that he or she has been kidnapped.
The Abduction Incident
The event began on November 5, 1975, Walton at 22 years old. He was employed by Mike Rogers, who had a contract for nine years with the United States Forest Service. Walton and Rogers were best friends. On November 5, after 6 p.m. Rogers and his crew said they saw a huge golden disc soaring above a shining and clearing brightly. The men in truck reported that Walton was below when the disc-shaped object began making noises. Walton rose his foot into the air, with his extremities outstretched. The 1978 book entitled “The Walton Experience,” Walton told his extraordinary experience. The book became a film in 1993 entitled “Fire In The Sky.”
The Abduction Details
He revealed his terrifying experience when “non-human” beings abducted him, and his fear and suffocation feelings have unfolded. He claimed that he saw the face of the non-human creature, which are smaller than people, which is hard to control. He even concluded that the size might be the reason they have given up.
Walton was declared missing for five days, and during that time, his co-loggers buddies have faced foul play suspicions. When Walton came back without knowing how long he stayed in the alien’s life, there were loads of intense investigation, including multiple physical, psychological and polygraph tests. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, Walton will be speaking in Arizona at the November Skyfire Summit.
Astronomers observe a supernova colliding with its companion star
Astronomers observe a supernova colliding with its companion star
A still from a simulation of a Type Ia supernova. In the simulation, a Type Ia supernova explodes (dark brown color). The supernova material is ejected outwards at a velocity ofabout 10,000 km/s. The ejected material slams into its companion star (light blue). Such aviolent collision produces an ultraviolet pulse which is emitted from the conical hole carved out by the companion star.

Type Ia supernovae, one of the most dazzling phenomena in the universe, are produced when small dense stars called white dwarfs explode with ferocious intensity. At their peak, these supernovae can outshine an entire galaxy. Although thousands of supernovae of this kind were found in the last decades, the process by which a white dwarf becomes one has been unclear.
That began to change on May 3, 2014, when a team of Caltech astronomers working on a robotic observing system known as the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF)—a multi-institute collaboration led by Shrinivas Kulkarni, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Professor of Astronomy and Planetary Science and director of the Caltech Optical Observatories—discovered a Type Ia supernova, designated iPTF14atg, in nearby galaxy IC831, located 300 million light-years away.
The data that were immediately collected by the iPTF team lend support to one of two competing theories about the origin of white dwarf supernovae, and also suggest the possibility that there are actually two distinct populations of this type of supernova.
The details are outlined in a paper with Caltech graduate student Yi Cao the lead author, appearing May 21 in the journal Nature.
Type Ia supernovae are known as "standardizable candles" because they allow astronomers to gauge cosmic distances by how dim they appear relative to how bright they actually are. It is like knowing that, from one mile away, a light bulb looks 100 times dimmer than another located only one-tenth of a mile away. This consistency is what made these stellar objects instrumental in measuring the accelerating expansion of the universe in the 1990s, earning three scientists the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2011.
There are two competing origin theories, both starting with the same general scenario: the white dwarf that eventually explodes is one of a pair of stars orbiting around a common center of mass. The interaction between these two stars, the theories say, is responsible for triggering supernova development. What is the nature of that interaction? At this point, the theories diverge.
According to one theory, the so-called double-degenerate model, the companion to the exploding white dwarf is also a white dwarf, and the supernova explosion initiates when the two similar objects merge.
However, in the second theory, called the single-degenerate model, the second star is instead a sunlike star—or even a red giant, a much larger type of star. In this model, the white dwarf's powerful gravity pulls, or accretes, material from the second star. This process, in turn, increases the temperature and pressure in the center of the white dwarf until a runaway nuclear reaction begins, ending in a dramatic explosion.
The difficulty in determining which model is correct stems from the facts that supernova events are very rare—occurring about once every few centuries in our galaxy—and that the stars involved are very dim before the explosions.
That is where the iPTF comes in. From atop Palomar Mountain in Southern California, where it is mounted on the 48-inch Samuel Oschin Telescope, the project's fully automated camera optically surveys roughly 1000 square degrees of sky per night (approximately 1/20th of the visible sky above the horizon), looking for transients—objects, including Type Ia supernovae, whose brightness changes over timescales that range from hours to days.
On May 3, the iPTF took images of IC831 and transmitted the data for analysis to computers at the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center, where a machine-learning algorithm analyzed the images and prioritized real celestial objects over digital artifacts. Because this first-pass analysis occurred when it was nighttime in the United States but daytime in Europe, the iPTF's European and Israeli collaborators were the first to sift through the prioritized objects, looking for intriguing signals. After they spotted the possible supernova—a signal that had not been visible in the images taken just the night before—the European and Israeli team alerted their U.S. counterparts, including Caltech graduate student and iPTF team member Yi Cao.
Cao and his colleagues then mobilized both ground- and space-based telescopes, including NASA's Swift satellite, which observes ultraviolet (UV) light, to take a closer look at the young supernova.
"My colleagues and I spent many sleepless nights on designing our system to search for luminous ultraviolet emission from baby Type Ia supernovae," says Cao. "As you can imagine, I was fired up when I first saw a bright spot at the location of this supernova in the ultraviolet image. I knew this was likely what we had been hoping for."
UV radiation has higher energy than visible light, so it is particularly suited to observing very hot objects like supernovae (although such observations are possible only from space, because Earth's atmosphere and ozone later absorbs almost all of this incoming UV). Swift measured a pulse of UV radiation that declined initially but then rose as the supernova brightened. Because such a pulse is short-lived, it can be missed by surveys that scan the sky less frequently than does the iPTF.
This observed ultraviolet pulse is consistent with a formation scenario in which the material ejected from a supernova explosion slams into a companion star, generating a shock wave that ignites the surrounding material. In other words, the data are in agreement with the single-degenerate model.
Back in 2010, Daniel Kasen, an associate professor of astronomy and physics at UC Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, used theoretical calculations and supercomputer simulations to predict just such a pulse from supernova-companion collisions. "After I made that prediction, a lot of people tried to look for that signature," Kasen says. "This is the first time that anyone has seen it. It opens up an entirely new way to study the origins of exploding stars."
According to Kulkarni, the discovery "provides direct evidence for the existence of a companion star in a Type Ia supernova, and demonstrates that at least some Type Ia supernovae originate from the single-degenerate channel."
Although the data from supernova iPTF14atg support it being made by a single-degenerate system, other Type Ia supernovae may result from double-degenerate systems. In fact, observations in 2011 of SN2011fe, another Type Ia supernova discovered in the nearby galaxy Messier 101 by PTF (the precursor to the iPTF), appeared to rule out the single-degenerate model for that particular supernova. And that means that both theories actually may be valid, says Caltech professor of theoretical astrophysics Sterl Phinney, who was not involved in the research. "The news is that it seems that both sets of theoretical models are right, and there are two very different kinds of Type Ia supernovae."
"Both rapid discovery of supernovae in their infancy by iPTF, and rapid follow-up by the Swift satellite, were essential to unveil the companion to this exploding white dwarf. Now we have to do this again and again to determine the fractions of Type Ia supernovae akin to different origin theories," says iPTF team member Mansi Kasliwal, who will join the Caltech astronomy faculty as an assistant in September 2015.
The iPTF project is a scientific collaboration between Caltech; Los Alamos National Laboratory; the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee; the Oskar Klein Centre in Sweden; the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel; the TANGO Program of the University System of Taiwan; and the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe in Japan.

Did extraterrestrials create the human species? Ancient texts say Yes
Did extraterrestrials create the human species? Ancient texts say Yes
In many sacred ancient texts, we find stories that speak of the creation of man. Among the most important texts we have the Sumerian, which mention the creation of man and their creators, the Anunnaki, "Those who from heaven came to Earth."
There are several Bible verses that refer to the creation of Adam and Eve, which some believe are based on writings of Sumerian clay tablets that speak of "superior" beings which created the first human species. Genesis 1:26-27:
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
In other ancient texts, like the Popol Vuh which isknown as the sacred book of the Quiché, the great Maya family, the "powerful ones from the sky" created man.
In the Qur'an, One night in the month of Ramadan, in the year 610 CE, Muhammad suddenly came up with a story that angel Gabriel appeared to him and gave him revelations from Allah. Gabriel ordered Muhammad to read in the name of your god as stated in the following verses:
. Verse 96.1: “read in the name of god who created”; . Verse 96.2: “created man from a clinging substance”; . Verse 96.3: “read and your god, the most generous”; . Verse 96.4: “who taught by the pen”; . Verse 96.5: “Taught man what he did not knew”.
In Japanese creation myths, it is believed that, in ancient times, a heavenly couple descended from above, breeding on Earth, leaving their children on our planet and creating the Japanese people.
In 2002, with the discovery of the human genome, researchers indicated that humans have 223 genes that do not have predecessors in the genetic tree of evolution.
The answer to why only humans have had such an abrupt evolution from all the species on Earth might be answered by the numerous ancient texts that speak of how life was created. Why do we decide to ignore them? Because science does not agree with them?
According to other researchers that are more open-minded, it does not seem far-fetched that humans were created by an extraterrestrial civilization in the distant past, with the help of genetic engineering, something that would perhaps help explain the 223 "alien genes" present in our DNA.
Francis Crick an English biochemist, winner of the Nobel price, discovered in 1953 the DNA structure. He sustained that extraterrestrial beings discovered our world in the distant past and decided to create "intelligent" life on the planet. Another expert, Vsevolod Troitsky, proposed a theory that the Earth could be some sort of testing ground for other, so-to-speak superior beings.
There have been numerous books that speakof creation and that suggest alternative theories on how man came to be what he is today.
Researcher Zecharias Sitchin suggested that the Anunnaki came to earth in the distant past from their planet Nibiru and genetically engineered humans on Earth. This is not only proven by ancient scriptures found worldwide, but also by many paintings like the double helix of DNA, symbolized by two intertwined serpents.
The Ancient Giants of Nevada and the Mystery of Lovelock Cave
Was North America once inhabited by a race of giants? According to an old legend supported by several challenging archaeological finds, it is possible. Many Native American tribes tell stories about the long-forgotten existence of a race of humans that were much taller and stronger than ordinary men. These giants are described as both brave and barbaric and legends often mention their cruelty towards whomever they pleased. The Paiute, a tribe that settled in the Nevada region thousands of years ago, have an outstanding legend about a race of red-haired giants called the Si-Te-Cah. The ancestors of the Paiute described them as savage and inhospitable cannibals. In the Northern Paiute language, ‘Si-Te-Cah’ literally means ‘tule-eaters.’ Legend has it that the giants came from a distant island by crossing the ocean on rafts built using the fibrous tule plant. As odd as it may sound, this legend repeats itself all over the Americas, suggesting it might be an incomplete chronicle of a real event that happened long ago.
In Crónicas del Perú, sixteenth century Spanish conquistador Pedro Cieza de León recorded an ancient Peruvian tale about the origin of the South American giants. According to legend, they “came by sea in rafts of reeds after the manner of large boats; some of the men were so tall that from the knee down they were as big as the length of an ordinary fair-sized man.”
Could the giants of Peru and the Si-Te-Cah have been survivors of a massive cataclysm who took refuge on the American continent?
Legend tells that the Si-Te-Cah waged war on the Paiute and all other neighboring tribes, spreading terror and devastation. Finally, after years of conflict, the tribes united against the common enemy and began to decimate them. The last remaining red-haired giants were chased off and sought shelter inside a cave. The tribes started a fire at the cave entrance, suffocating and burning alive the Si-Te-Cah. Those driven out by the smoke were also killed.
The tribes then sealed off the mouth of the cave so that no one might set eyes on those who had once plagued their land. They were all but forgotten until a random event brought them back to light.
In 1886, a mining engineer named John T. Reid happened to hear the legend from a group of Paiutes while prospecting near Lovelock, Nevada. The Indians told him that the legend was real and the cave was located nearby. When he saw the cave for himself, Reid knew he was onto something.
Reid was unable to begin digging himself but news spread and soon, Lovelock cave was attracting attention. Unfortunately, the attention was profit-driven as guano deposits were discovered inside. A company started by miners David Pugh and James Hart began excavating the precious resource in 1911 and had soon shipped more than 250 tons to a fertilizer company in San Francisco. Any artifacts that might have been discovered were probably neglected or lost.
After the surface layer of guano had been mined, strange objects started to surface. This led to an official excavation being performed in 1912 by the University of California and another one took place in 1924. Reports told about thousands of artifacts being recovered, some of them being truly unusual.
Although their claims have not been verified (it comes as no surprise), sources said the mummified remains of several red-haired ancient giants were found buried in the cave. Measuring between 8 to 10 feet in height, these mummies have since been referred to as the Lovelock Giants.
Another intriguing find was a pair of 15 inch-long sandals that showed signs of having been worn. Allegedly, other unusually large items were recovered but have since been locked away in museum warehouses and private collection.
A piece of evidence that remains on-site until this day is a giant hand print, embedded on a boulder inside Lovelock Cave. We won’t go into further debate pertaining to this aspect and its implications.
Needless to say, this discovery has led many into believing the Paiute legend of the Si-Te-Cah might be more than just folklore.
Around the same time as the second Lovelock Cave excavation, another dig revealed a set of equally-disturbing finds. According to a 1931 article published in the Nevada Review-Miner, two giant skeletons had been found buried in a dry lake bed close to Lovelock, Nevada. The over-sized remains measured 8.5, respectively 10 feet in height and were mummified in a manner similar to the one employed by ancient Egyptians.
Another common trait between these mummified giant remains and the ones discovered as far south as Lake Titicaca is the presence of red hair. While some scientists believe the reddish color is a result of the interaction with the environment in which they were buried, the mummies verify the legends, which described the Si-Te-Cah and their kin as red-haired giants.
Proponents of alternative history believe these violent giants were none other than the biblical Nephilim, the forsworn offspring of the ‘Sons of God’ with the ‘daughters of men.’
If this is true, there’s little chance we might get to see any of the giant mummies. Those interested in keeping history secret will never disclose their location.
Mysterious Green Light Phenomenon appears above the Netherlands
Mysterious Green Light Phenomenon appears above the Netherlands
On Tuesday, Blogger Harry Clipperton a resident of the City Groningen in the Netherlands made some pictures of the nature which he wanted to post it on his blog.
After returning home, he noticed something strange in one of his pictures what looks like a strange green light phenomenon in the sky.
Harry writes on his blog Groninganus ”At first I thought it is a camera error, dirt or water speck on the lens but it is clearly not. I remember there was a kind of flash at the moment I took the pictures so I decided it must have been lightning or maybe it’s a UFO.”
We may wonder whether it is a natural phenomenon, a man-made secret laser or beam project, like the Norway Spiral or is it something supernatural.
There have been plenty of UFO sightings in the Grimsby area over the years.
A SURVEY revealing UFO hotspots across Britain has been unveiled – and surprisingly doesn’t include anywhere in Lincolnshire.
Falkirk, in Scotland, topped the bill in the list, which was created by property experts Rightmove from a survey of 30,000 people.
Meanwhile, Torquay in Devon was deemed to have the highest rate of ghost sightings while the London borough of Hackney is where, bizarrely, most people have unwittingly seen their neighbours naked.
Lincoln appears in 7th place on the ghost sightings list while nearby Hull managed 4th position in the top ten towns for nude neighbours.
To prove our area has had its fair share of strange lights in the sky, check out our interactive map of notable UFO incidents that have occurred over the years.

The Night Doctors: the terror behind the abduction phenomenon
The Night Doctors: the terror behind the abduction phenomenon
Do the roots of how we have come to perceive the UFO abduction phenomenon lie elsewhere, not between the stars but buried in the folklore and superstition of a suppressed people? If so, what does it tell us? Is the abduction phenomenon older than we think, does it manifest itself amongst the various cultures on earth in a different way? A hundred years ago you’d be having a very good chance that an African American, no matter where he might live in the United States, might mutter in agreement to all these questions, before hurrying off in utter fear.
Not too long ago large parts of the American population were the victim of a virulent racism, and, although the sharpest edges have been removed, it has never totally gone away. What this racism also brought with it was a unique divergence of the folkloric beliefs and superstitions of the various racial populations that made up America. African Americans, ultimately having their roots in Africa, inherited the religious beliefs, traditions and folklore of their overseas ancestors who were brought to the continent as slaves. The same went for, say, the poor Irish, Dutch or Swedish colonists. Each racial, cultural or national group brought with it its own set of folkloric traditions from the old countries, and with these mythologies came their own brand of demons, fairies, monsters, witches and things that go bump in the night. These old tales were stronger than the American melting pot that didn’t work for black slaves anyway, so they survived the process of assimilation in the new country. And since there was a communications gap, to put it mildly, between the black slaves and their white masters, the beliefs and superstitions of the former could linger on and mature in relative seclusion.
Not that their white masters didn’t have an inkling. The 19th century black American populations held in slavery were also kept in check by a system of the exploitation of these folkloric fears by their white masters. One has but to think of the sinister garb of the Ku Klux Klan, or the infamous Ghost Riders or Night Riders. It was, as Gladys-Marie Fry notes in her book Night Riders In Black Folk History: ‘a system of psychological control.’ In return, the African American communities, powerless to effectively defend themselves, fell back on and found solace in a new and unique mythology to explain the wanton cruelty that befell them. With it came the warnings embedded in folklore, assembled by astute and smart black forteans before Charles Fort even began his seminal work; the most well-known piece of advice that you should be very weary of what you might encounter at the crossroads, and never, ever accept any gifts from strangers there.
Black forteans you say? Yes, there were a few. But they’d best be called demonologists and exorcists. Since that is what the life of an African American consisted of anyway: to fight off their demon slave owners, the white devil-man, and exorcise the deep injustice that came with it. Black urban legends difer from white urban legends, as Patricia Turner demonstrates in her book I Heard It Through The Grapevine. And black forteana is different from white forteana. Amongst others, its marked difference lies in the social status of the experiencer. A suppressed people living in poverty and their fate decided by the unpredictable whim of their cruel masters formulates a different set of tales to explain and fathom a careless, nihilistic and dark world; a free people entertains a different outlook on life, the universe and everything. There was a time when poor Irish peasants lived in dread of the Good Folk and their children snatching antics. In contrast, well to do 19th century Victorians gravitated towards a totally false idea of the Fairies as cute little darling creatures with butterfly wings. It may also mean that, the better off a folk will become over time, the more they drift away from their dark and atavistic folkloric fears. In due time, folklore may even be seen as superstition, a mental aberration of more primitive times, which is the wrong road to take, of course. There are things that go bump in the night, and there are manifestations for which there is no answer. How does this relate to the UFO-phenomenon? We’ll come to that in a moment.
Rootwork! Hoodoo! Conjuration, the alternative worldview of the old African Americans was strong and mesmerizing. And none more frightening than the Night Doctors, those terrible, mysterious non-human abductors that resembled, as one African American put it in 1887:
…a supernatural being, formed like a man, having long, hook-like fingers and a poisonous breath… wherever he turns and breathes upon a house where a child lies sick the child is doomed to death before another night… Always after the death of a child the negroes get together and ask who of them heard the night doctor pass by. Some one is sure to assert that he or she heard the low, moaning, rushing sound made by the night doctor’s quick flight. But it is regarded as a surely fatal sign if any one sees the night doctor.
When the stories of the Night Doctors began to surface in early 19th century America, one thing that became apparent was that ‘the myth’, as one newspaper named it, was traceable to Africa (which part of that large continent it didn’t say). Another newspaper offered as solution to the origin of this fear:
Where did this belief originate? Perhaps in darker Africa, in days when ancestors of the race in this country were changed from Africans to Americans through the medium of the slave ship, manacle and lash…
Reading these 19th century accounts in the cramped columns of crumbling newspapers, okay, their 21st century equivalent in the form of fuzzy lowres pdf files digitized from badly scratched and well-worn microfilm rolls, one has to wade through a sea of racist context. Stripped of that utterly unpleasant jargon and framework, a fascinating body of stories emerges. The Night Doctors, we learn, abducted black people by pouring wax in their nostrils and mouths, incapacitating them, hurrying them into black carriages, and hurtle them off to secret laboratories and wings of foreboding hospitals for the gruesome purposes of vivisection and weird, ungodly experiments. Or instead of wax they used ‘a peculiar plaster’ which they clap over the face of the intended victim: “this stifles their cries and ultimately suffocates them. Their bodies are then carried to the medical college, where they are dissected and a valuable extract is made from the coloring matter, which makes the ‘darkey’ browner than the white person…” In 1879 Little Rock, Arkansas, was in the grip of a Night Doctors scare:
The idea has been taken up that every night the doctors go out, catch colored people, drag them into the institution, kill and dissect them…
An 1889 newspaper article reads:
The Negroes of Clarendon, Williamsburg and Sumter counties have for several weeks past been in a state of fear and trembling. They claim that there is a white man, a doctor, who at will can make himself invisible, and who then approaches some unsuspecting darkey, and, having rendered him or her insensible with chloroform, proceeds to fill up a bucket with the victim’s blood, for the purpose of making medicine…
The fears of these Night Doctors were not unfounded; the practice of dissection was widely spread in 19th century America, and the graves of African Americans were the main source of corpses. It was, after all, less risky to dissect a black cadaver instead of a white one. Writes Sheena Morrison in Body Snatchers: Tales from the Crypt and Beyond:
In as early as March of 1827, Freedom’s Journal, an African American newspaper, instructed its readers on how to create a cheap mortsafe, a complex contraption of rods and plates that protected the coffin. According to the journal, family members should, “as soon as the corpse is deposited in the grave, let a truss of long wheaten straw be opened and distributed in layers, as equally as may be with every layer of earth, until the whole is filled up. By this method the corpse will be effectually secured.” This contraption ensured that “the longest night will not afford time to empty the grave
Then there is the disturbing story of Madame LaLaurie, a socialite and sadistic serial killer from Louisiana. On April 10, 1834, a fire broke out in her residence on Royal Street, New Orleans. Police and fire marshals found in the slave quarters “seven slaves, more or less horribly mutilated … suspended by the neck, with their limbs apparently stretched and torn from one extremity to the other”. It is said that eyewitnesses looked aghast at a scene from the deepest pit of hell: “There were women chained to beds with their stomachs cut open, and their intestines wrapped about their waists. There were men with their eyeballs poked out and their private parts mutilated, all while being chained to a wall. Some slaves’ intestines were nailed to the floor. One firefighter described a woman with her arms cut off, with patterns of her skin dug out. One person even had animal feces in their mouth, which was sewn shut….”
Sadly, her case was not an isolated one. There were many more and this formed an integral part of a terrible reality that an African American slave faced in 19th century America and elsewhere in the western world where slavery was widely practiced. Those sinister tales of the Night Doctors, abducting African Americans to perform gruesome experiments, are reminiscent of the nefarious Tuskegee experiment that ran from 1932 all the way to 1972. But was there something more lurking behind the Night Doctors scare, something else, that is perhaps not entirely of this world?
Flash forward to a fateful night in September 1961. A beautiful, vivacious couple of mixed race marriage – he is black, she white, is driving in their car to Portsmouth from Niagara Falls, and, as unique as their mixed race marriage is at that time, they are on the verge of having an equally groundbreaking experience. It will become so influential, that it will forever mark the very beginning of what has since been known as ‘the abduction phenomenon’. As they are driving in the vicinity of Twin Mountain (there’s a Twin Peaks for you) they see an odd craft with flashing lights, but worse, the odd craft notices them. One mile off Indian Head, the object descends causing the couple to halt their car in the middle of the highway. In front of them hovers a huge, silent object, filling the entire field of the windshield. Grabbing his gun, the man leaves the car. Behind the windows of the craft he sees:
…about 8 to 11 humanoid figures who were peering out of the craft’s windows, seeming to look at him. … Barney had a conscious, continuous recollection of observing the humanoid forms wearing glossy black uniforms and black caps… Beings that were somehow not human…
The couple is Betty and Barney Hill, and their unbelievably weird encounter would essentially mark the recorded beginning of the abduction phenomenon. There were a few claims to earlier abductions, that of Antonio Vilas Boas in October 1957 for instance, but it was not properly recorded until a year after the Hills. Yet another pre-Hills claim was found in a French newspaper from 1954, where a letter writer recalled a certain childhood incident from 1921. The anonymous writer claimed that he was snatched away by two tall men wearing diver suits and helmets, taking him to an ‘oddly shaped tank’. But let’s return to Barney Hill. British ufologist Peter Rogerson observes:
…Anyone who reads Barney’s encounter in the field with the light must suspect that his extreme reaction was more likely to have been a symptom of preexisting post-traumatic stress than something new. His description of the alien as having a Mongolian-type face, wearing a sort of leather jacket and a scarf is curiously reminiscent of a kamikaze pilot. This figure is also seen as an evil Nazi officer and an Irishman (Boston Irish, traditionally hostile to Blacks). In other words, reflected in the unknown light, Barney sees images of evil authority, intolerance and threat…
There are some that say that the “night doctors” are a myth belonging solely to black folklore, a story used to frighten and manipulate. There is no doubt that is indeed what the lore achieved but the night doctors, aka “sack-em-up boys” aka “resurrectionists” aka night riders, did indeed live in more than just whispered stories. The night doctors were a real force that made a lasting impression on history and the repercussions of their horror story can still be felt in African American communities today.
Did Barney Hill, an African American who also was active in the Civil Rights movement, in this extremely stressful moment, relive that atavistic fear of the Night Doctors, which once terrorized scores of African Americans and is even felt today? Was it that why Barney Hill reacted much more frightened and in much greater panic compared to Betty? It can be argued then that this deeply felt fear of the Night Doctors stood at the base of how the abduction phenomenon in its earliest stage was shaped in our collective psyche. After all, UFO historian Jerome Clarke ponders in his The Ufo Book how, until the mid 1960s before Betty and Barney Hill’s experience became known “…ufologists knew nothing of an ‘abduction phenomenon’. Indeed the Hills’ account of being taken against their will into a UFO by humanoids and forced to undergo physical examinations seemed unique to some ufologists…”
An African American citizen though might have known exactly where to look for similarities: he or she might even have recalled those old stories told by grandmother, of the strange disappearances, the inexplicable abductions and the weird experiments of the terrible Night Doctors. They mirror the medical procedures, the physical examination ritual in the UFO abduction phenomenon – that surfaced for the first time with the experience of Betty and Barney Hill on a deserted stretch of road, one September night in 1961. At that time, the infamous Tuskegee experiment was still business as (un)usual.

Exclusive: New Video of Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon From Chile
Exclusive: New Video of Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon From Chile
The CEFAA, a government agency investigating unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) within the department of civil aeronautics (DGAC) in Chile, has released a summary of its meticulous investigation into the relatively recent "AGA case." The acronym "AGA" refers to the prestigious Air Force War Academy (Academia de Guerra Aérea) in Santiago, Chile, which provides training for high level Air Force officers.
The sighting of unexplained lights in formation at the Academy was video taped on two cell phones. Due to technical problems, the videos are not accessible on the CEFAA website. I have been given exclusive access to the full case file, and permission to publish the videos for the first time.
Here is what happened: At about 7:45 pm on September 3, 2012, a paramedic and an emergency medical technician (EMT) stopped to fill up an ambulance from the Air Force Hospital at the fuel pump on the Academy grounds. A sergeant, responsible for overseeing the security of the facility, was assisting with the refueling.

Suddenly, they observed five lights coming over the Andes mountains from the Northeast, creating a horizontal formation and moving towards the Academy. At first, they thought this must be helicopters rehearsing for an annual military parade to take place later that month. However, as the lights drew nearer, the sergeant, who had spent 27 years in the Air Force, realized they were not helicopters. They made no sound and were clearly something highly unusual.
Startled, he ran towards the guard post at the main entrance and shouted the name of the guard who was inside. The ambulance driver and the EMT each pulled out their cell phones and began making videos of the strange formations.
The lights then descended even closer to the Academy grounds, and all three watched them change from a straight line into first a triangle, and then a circle, as they hovered nearby. The phenomenon then withdrew back towards the mountains and disappeared from view. The cameras were running for most of the display, until the batteries ran out. It lasted a few minutes.

Right after the sighting, two high-ranking officers observed how shaken the men were by this event.
A retired Air Force general, who happened to stop briefly at the Academy within five minutes of the incident, encountered a very agitated sergeant. The general reported in writing that the sergeant asked him: "'Did you see the lights, General?' 'We had them right here on top of the Academy...five UFO's, red in color...here, right on top of us... General, I thought one of them was going to land here!'"
First thing the next morning, the Director of the Academy called General Ricardo Bermúdez, director of the CEFAA. He said he had received an urgent call from the men on duty the previous night and had arrived at the scene about fifteen minutes later. "The sergeant acted like someone who's seen something very strange," he told Bermúdez. "He also said he hadn't believed in those things [UFOs] until after what had just happened."
All three witnesses and others involved wish to remain anonymous to protect their privacy.
The Air Force and Army each assigned a psychologist to evaluate the witnesses the day after the event. Both concluded they were normal, reliable men who had clearly been subjected to a situation that caused them great stress. One report states that the sergeant was reserved in character, completely coherent and rational, and declared he had never had a similar experience to this before.
Shortly thereafter, General Bermúdez learned why the sergeant was so strongly affected.
Yes, he was worried that the UAP would land on the grounds, because it appeared to be very close. But there was more to his fear than this proximity. The sergeant told Bermúdez that after seeing the five lights approaching in a horizontal formation, he saw "a ship." It was not an airplane or a helicopter; it had no wings, blades or turbines to sustain it in the air, he said.
"I saw an oval shape, like a submarine. The upper part had windows with lights coming out and was shaped like a submarine, with a dome or something like it."
He went on. "It took me about ten seconds to shout to the people with me. The three of us started running, both men recording with their cell phones as I went towards the guard house to warn the man on duty." He saw the lights change into the other formations "right on top of the Academy. I went past, running right beneath them." He said the lights were red and spinning.
The corporal in the guard house, who just missed seeing the lights, reported that the sergeant told him on the spot that he had seen a ship. The sergeant appeared to be in shock. "He's dark-skinned, but that day he looked pale white," said the corporal. "His reaction was like something very serious had happened." And, he told Bermúdez, "the sergeant has a strong character, strict, military. Not the nervous type." It was understood by all involved that it would take something very alarming to evoke such an intense reaction from this professional Air Force veteran.
However, the ambulance driver and EMT did not see a ship, so this aspect of the case has no corroboration. And it remains unclear whether the lights on display were five independent entities or were part of one larger object.
The driver reported that the lights looked yellow at first, but then changed to orange and then red. When they got closer, he too could see them spinning. "They were round and they looked as big as the lights of a car and they were spinning on their own axis," he said.
He said they looked as close as the pine trees, and he was afraid. "It was like standing right beneath a street neon lamp. The only difference was that it was spinning."
The EMT supplied a similar report. "I guess they were some 50 meters away only. Either they were very big or very powerful...you could see the pine trees almost right beneath."
Before viewing the AGA video, I have to warn you that a simple cell phone does not do very well in capturing lights at night, and what the eyes see can look very different. Here, the videos don't come close. "While I watched the cell phone screen, there was very little that I could see, almost nothing," the ambulance driver said. "But, when I looked directly at them, they were very clear."
The cell phone makes the UAP appear smaller and further away than it appeared to the naked eye. Yet the videos also recorded the reactions and descriptions of the witnesses in real time, which is extremely important.
Here is much of the EMT's spontaneous narrative from his video, rendered with great excitement, and with pauses between each phrase:
They're UFOs! Damn I can't capture them in my camera! Look at the formation they have now! I am seeing a formation of five luminous objects, that my cell phone doesn't seem to catch. But if you were here you would see them perfectly!
Oh my God, look! They are coming down! I can't see anything in my camera. Over here look! Before they looked super big. Now they are getting dimmer. Wow, this is amazing!
A series of stills were extracted and enhanced by the laboratory of the Chilean criminal police department, the equivalent of our FBI. The triangular formation was the clearest on both videos.
(courtesy CEFAA)
The phenomenon clearly demonstrates intelligence. How do you best form a triangle out of five lights? If you look at the closeup of the triangle on the far right above, you can see that the left and upper points of the triangle are composed of two lights that have moved close enough together to form one point. I find this quite an astonishing solution to the problem.
Below is an excerpt from the EMT's video, the longest and the clearest of the two. The triangle is visible during the earlier part, but it is harder to see the phenomenon in the second half. Note also the shouts of the sergeant calling for the guard. The two bright lights at the bottom of the tree (as seen in the still above) are houses. Click "full screen" to see it better, and tilt the screen to maximize the contrast.
The CEFAA has left no stone unturned in trying to identify the source of this UAP. The Santiago Radar Control Center provided all primary radar recordings of aircraft flying in the area at the time. No known traffic could account for the lights in formation. In addition, officials from the nearest airfield stated they had no air traffic that evening.
Since the phenomenon was seen below the peak of the mountain, it was too low to have been airplanes. And the minimum vertical distance allowed between adjacent airplanes is 2,000 feet; the horizontal minimum is two miles.

The Meteorological office contributed a full report of conditions at the time and ruled out anything related to weather. The Air Force photogrammetric service mapped the area and determined that there were no existing roads or tracks behind the location that would allow for any possibility of car lights, lanterns or hunters signals. The uniformed police combed the area looking for additional witnesses, but none were found. They ruled out any sort of laser or light displays; in any case, these anomalous lights had no beams.
The phenomenon remains a mystery despite the CEFAA's lengthy investigation, involving a host of experts. All known possible explanations have been eliminated.
What was it that flew in silently over the Andes, displayed three distinct formations from five spinning lights while hovering over the grounds of an Air Force Academy, and then dimmed, retreating back over the mountains? The CEFAA Scientific Committee concluded by consensus that this was an "anomalous luminous phenomenon" of unknown origin.

The case illustrates the remarkable cooperation that occurs in Chile among all government and military departments, technical experts, and scientists of various specialties in the investigation of UAP cases. None of them question the validity of the process or the reality of the phenomenon under study. They give freely of their time and resources, so the agency does not cost much to run. And the law mandates that all information be made public.
If only the U.S. would follow suit, we could be on our way towards solving the UFO question once and for all, in cooperation with many countries around the globe.
Recently news site kramola.info.russia interviewed the officer of the Russian army Eugene Gavrikov.
He tells about his personal experience in Antarctica and argues that there really is a pyramid hidden in the midst of cold icy mountains and there are traces of military infrastructure left by the Third Reich and there are signs of activity from the past.
Furthermore, Gavrikov states that the United States is aware of what actually happens in Antarctica where satellites showed the Ozon hole which could not be attributed to human activities but is generated by something more mysterious.
Below the complete raw version of the interview with Eugene Gavrikov.

US military’s plans for flying saucers explained in declassified documents
Newly released diagrams show scale of the future that never was after air force cancelled funding for wobbly disc-shaped craft
A US military illustration from Project 1794 strongly resembles a flying saucer. Photograph: national archives
These days, flying saucers are most commonly associated with sci-fi films and conspiracy theories, but in the 1950s, some saw them as the future of aviation.
Details of the proposed craft have been around for years. But the declassified papers include new diagrams and documents that demonstrate the scale of the project’s ambition.
The US air force contracted the work to a now-defunct Canadian company, Avro. In one document, Avro envisaged a “top speed potential between Mach 3 and Mach 4, a ceiling of over 100,000ft and a maximum range with allowances of about 1,000 nautical miles”. That would have sent the flying saucer spinning into the Earth’s stratosphere.
Language in a report labelled “final development summary” was optimistic: “It is concluded that the stabilization and control of the aircraft in the manner proposed – the propulsive jets are used to control the aircraft – is feasible and the aircraft can be designed to have satisfactory handling through the whole flight range from ground cushion take-off to supersonic flight at very high altitude.”
Such lofty ambitions were never achieved; video footage of other disc-shaped crafts constructed by Avro show a machine wobbling uncertainly around 3ft off the ground.
The cost for the endeavour is listed as $3,168,000, which Wired estimates at $26.6m in today’s money.
Sadly, the project was cancelled and the craft were never built.
Hurrah! Stick some wings on your tank and watch it fly. Apparently “initial tests were successful“, but clearly flying tanks did not become the ‘terrible machine of destruction’ envisaged in the 1930s. More robust aeroplanes meant tanks were placed inside aircraft, rather than strapped underneath.
Massive ‘gas-shooting’ riot car
Apparently this vehicle was designed to control crowds ”and put a stop to riots at any cost”. The concept, which was patented by a Brooklyn based-company, would have spurted poisonous gas at any ne’er-do-wells, or alternatively soaked them with water. Or just shot them with machine guns. Options.
Bell rocket belt
After it was built for the US army in the 1960s, John F Kennedy was treated to a rocket-belt display in October 1961. The device used hydrogen peroxide as fuel – the belt-wearer was advised to wear insulating trousers – and could carry a man over 9m high obstacles at speeds of up to 10mph. Unfortunately it could only do so for about 20 seconds, and it was not put into widespread use by the military.
