Hubble views a bizarre cosmic quartet
This new NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows four of the seven members of galaxy group HCG 16. This quartet is composed of (from left to right) NGC 839, NGC 838, NGC 835, and NGC 833 -- four of the seven galaxies that make up the entire group. They shine brightly with their glowing golden centers and wispy tails of gas, set against a background dotted with much more distant galaxies.

Hubble views a bizarre cosmic quartet
This new NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows a gathering of four cosmic companions. This quartet forms part of a group of galaxies known as the Hickson Compact Group 16, or HCG 16 — a galaxy group bursting with dramatic star formation, tidal tails, galactic mergers and black holes.
This quartet is composed of (from left to right) NGC 839, NGC 838, NGC 835, and NGC 833 — four of the seven galaxies that make up the entire group. They shine brightly with their glowing golden centres and wispy tails of gas,* set against a background dotted with much more distant galaxies.
Compact groups represent some of the densest concentrations of galaxies known in the Universe, making them perfect laboratories for studying weird and wonderful phenomena. Hickson Compact Groups in particular, as classified by astronomer Paul Hickson in the 1980s, are surprisingly numerous, and are thought to contain an unusually high number of galaxies with strange properties and behaviours.
HCG 16 is certainly no exception. The galaxies within it are bursting with dramatic knots of star formation and intensely bright central regions. Within this single group, astronomers have found two LINERs, one Seyfert 2 galaxy and three starburst galaxies.
These three types of galaxy are all quite different, and can each help us to explore something different about the cosmos. Starbursts are dynamic galaxies that produce new stars at much greater rates than their peers. LINERs (Low-Ionisation Nuclear Emission-line Regions) contain heated gas at their cores, which spew out radiation. In this image NGC 839 is a LINER-type and luminous infrared galaxy and its companion NGC 838 is a LINER-type galaxy with lots of starburst activity and no central black hole.
The remaining galaxies, NGC 835 and NGC 833, are both Seyfert 2 galaxies which have incredibly luminous cores when observed at other wavelengths than in the visible light, and are home to active supermassive black holes.
The X-ray emission emanating from the black hole within NGC 833 (far right) is so high that it suggests the galaxy has been stripped of gas and dust by past interactions with other galaxies. It is not alone in having a violent history — the morphology of NGC 839 (far left) is likely due to a galactic merger in the recent past, and long tails of glowing gas can be seen stretching away from the galaxies on the right of the image.
This new image uses observations from Hubble’s Wide Field Planetary Camera 2, combined with data from the ESO Multi-Mode Instrument installed on the European Southern Observatory’s New Technology Telescope in Chile. A version of this image was entered into the Hubble’s Hidden Treasures image processing competition by contestants Jean-Christophe Lambry and Marc Canale.
* A tidal tail is a thin, elongated region of stars and interstellar gas that extends into space from a galaxy. They are a result of the strong gravitational forces around interacting galaxies.
NASA's Great Taboo: Intelligent Extraterrestial Life
NASA's Great Taboo: Intelligent Extraterrestial Life
June 27, 2015- Don’t know about you, but I’m loving those mystery lights on Ceres as NASA’s surveillance probe, Dawn, bears down on the biggest chunk of real estate in the asteroid belt. And not because of the prospects for discovering alien activity – they’re remote, at best – but because of the opportunity to witness, again, the ritual disconnect that characterizes institutional science whenever "The Great Taboo" legitimately insinuates itself into a news cycle.
Let’s go back a few years when, after half a century of logging zilch in the Great ET Radio Signal Experiment, SETI pioneer Jill Tarter proposed a new name for their endeavors, the Search for Extraterrestrial Technology (SETT). This was a tacit grudging concession that maybe radio astronomers had been working with a flawed model. In 2011, the International Journal of Astrobiology published a paper by astrophysicists Martin Elvis and Duncan Forgan proposing an even more specific tack, that maybe Earthlings ought to consider scanning the asteroid belt for evidence of ET “macro-engineering projects.” Translation: mining operations. Made sense. After all, they noted, asteroids are repositories for raw material like gold, platinum and silver, the kind of stuff you'd likely need to repair or refuel extended planetary missions.
And, as Forgan would hypothesize two years later in the IJA, ET wouldn’t even have to bend the known laws of physics to reach the rocky debris zone between Jupiter and Mars, no matter which part of the Milky Way he/she/it came from. Upon crunching the numbers, Forgan and a mathematician hypothesized that robotic technologies could have mapped this galaxy well below light speeds, in about 10 million years. On the cosmic scale of time, that's no big deal.
So here's what's going on. In 2007, NASA hurls an unmanned vehicle toward the asteroid belt to look for clues to the formation of our solar system. Destination: “dwarf planets” Vesta and Ceres. Dawn enters a 14-month mapping orbit over Vesta in 2011, then moves on toward the bigger prize. In February, as it closes to within 29,000 miles of Ceres, Dawn’s cameras detect something totally off the charts – lights on the surface. Their luminosity doesn’t appear to be significantly affected by different sun angles. Two months and 25,000 miles closer, their intensity is still unblinking. Planetary scientists are stumped; at the Jet Propulsion Lab’s website, PR flacks do a very savvy thing by letting visitors vote on the most likely suspects: “volcano,” “geyser,” “salt deposit,” “ice,” “rock,” and “other.” Wonder what "other" could be. Hmm. Anyway, we'll get an even better peek by summer’s end, when Dawn dips to within 900 miles of the surface.
No matter what those lights are all about, this sort of suspense is cool. Talk about a teaching opportunity for schools.
Now let’s review some of NASA’s recent headline-grabbing statements. In 2014, given our ongoing exoplanet transiting searches and the impending exploration of more local worlds like Europa, space agency scientists predicted Earthlings will discover ET life within 20 years. That forecast was reiterated just last week at the Astrobiology Science Conference in Chicago. In fact, NASA Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate (there's a mouthful) and former astronaut John Grunsfeld suggested that ET civilizations might already have detected us, the same way we’re locating and confirming the existence of deep-space planets. Quote:
“We put atmospheric signatures that guarantee someone with a large telescope 20 light years away could detect us. If there is life out there, intelligent life, they’ll know we’re here.”
Left unsaid, what none in that sheltered crowd wants to contemplate: And if they discover us before we discover them, maybe they’re already a lot closer than we think. But of course, there was no room in Chicago for a discussion of UFOs. That would be a little too declasse, like farting in church. Oh, and just to make sure nobody got terribly excited, coverage of last week’s Windy City pow-wow also included a canned statement from NASA chief scientist Ellen Stefan. In April, during a discussion about Mars, she drew distinctions between the discovery of biological life and some other silly alternative like, well, the 2011 peer-reviewed paper's "targeted asteroid mining" scenario. “We are not talking about little green men," she insisted. "We are talking about little microbes.”
Stofan could’ve said “intelligent life.” But she went for the gag line instead. Knowing full well how much everybody loves microbes.
Hey, no one wants to look like an idiot as we approach the biggest discovery of all time, wherever that may be. The solution to the Ceres lights will likely fall far short of little green men. But the language we employ as we draw closer to the inevitability doesn't inspire much confidence; it suggests we’re deeply conflicted in our enthusiasm for confirming The Other. Or at least the people at the top of NASA appear to be. Fortunately, we can console ourselves with the knowledge that science and politics never mix.
People (including some scientists) don't always distinguish between low probability events and the results of a string of high probability events where each step takes a finite amount of time. I.e. Just because something takes a long time to develop, it doesn't mean that the result is a low probability event.
Biological evolution is bounded by physical laws and the need for efficiency (in part due to competition); yet life on Earth has found its way into every environment and makes use of every energy-efficient sensing ability (sight & heat detection, touch & hearing, chemical recognition in smell & taste, even the detection of electrical fields and magnetic fields, the latter through at least two means including the recently posited quantum compass in a robins eye.)
Transmission of sensory information requires something like a nervous system. Processing sensory information requires an evolved nervous system, from which intelligence and self-awareness can emerge. So perhaps 'little green men' and humans are not that far removed from single cell organisms in the grand scheme.
“Some physicists say that the future is already written in today, but I think that they are not taking quantum uncertainty seriously. Quantum uncertainty says the future is not determined until it's happened.”
- George F. R. Ellis, Ph.D. Prof. Emeritus, Mathematics Dept., Univ. of Cape Town, South Africa
June 27, 2015 Cape Town, South Africa - A scientist who studied and expanded his mind about the universe at Cambridge University in England and had long dialogues with the young physicist Stephen Hawking about time and space is George F. R. Ellis, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus now in the Mathematics Department at the University of Cape Town in South Africa.
Like Prof. Martin Rees, Prof. Ellis also received a Templeton Prize honoring his profound insights into the cosmos that have led now to his rejecting the theory that evolved in Albert Einstein mind that space and time are entangled in such a way that time is an illusion.
The implication was that past, present and future are one and that the future is locked in from the Alpha to the Omega. Prof. Ellis says that does not make sense to the reality of existence as we know it. And his rebellion against Einstein’s perspective is the cover story in the June 2015 Discover magazine entitled, “Mysteries in Time: Is the past a myth? Is the future set? Is it all an illusion? Prof. Ellis answers, “The past is real and can have had an effect on us today but the future cannot influence us because it does not yet exist.”
Prof. Ellis is convinced that the key to whether the future is fixed or not, is in the quantum realm where uncertainty changes to certainty — the collapse of the wave function — when there is an observation by consciousness. At the quantum level, Schroedinger's cat is both dead and alive inside a box until Someone Looks in the box.
Observation causes the collapse of the uncertain wave function into a certainty — dead or alive. But the problem is that no one knows what the collapse mechanism is that produces a certainty from many uncertain possibilities. Figuring that out is what Prof. Ellis is trying to do.
George F. R. Ellis, Ph.D., Cosmologist and Professor Emeritus, Mathematics Dept., University of Cape Town, South Africa:“Einstein crystallized the idea of a 4-dimensional space/time with three space dimensions and one time dimension.
What he discovered is that if you change your velocity, you get a different splitting up of the space and time in 4 dimensional space. Time depends on how things move. That was his big discovery.
THE VELOCITY GETTING NEAR THE SPEED OF LIGHT IS WHERE IT APPROACHES INFINITE MASS, AND TIME WOULD STOP.
Yes, what would happen is if you could move at the speed of light, Einstein began thinking about a clock and what he thought about was that he saw the clock as it hit twelve. And he thought, ‘If I was moving away at the speed of light, this particle of light which is bringing the information traveling towards me and I would be traveling away at the speed of light! (laughs) And so I would always see the clock at twelve. Time would stop.
The Mystery of Time
COULD YOU EXPLAIN FOR A GENERAL AUDIENCE YOUR PERCEPTION ON QUANTUM COLLAPSES HAPPENING ALL THE TIME AT THIS MOMENT, AT THIS EDGE BETWEEN THIS EVER-PRESENT TICKING, AS I SPEAK, EACH WORD IS GOING BEHIND LIKE THIS WALL …
Yeah.
AND THEN ON THE OTHER SIDE IS THAT ALWAYS CONSTANT FUTURE THAT SEEMS TO COME AT US, BUT THERE IS THIS BORDER IN BETWEEN.
Yeah. Quantum physics gives us the wave function and the wave function gives us the probabilities of the future, but it does not tell you what the outcome will be. The set of probable futures that comes and crystallizes into a specific thing, which happens and the moment that which that takes place is the instant in which the indefinite future becomes a definite past.
Quantum uncertainty is changing to definiteness all the time. So, for instance, every time that a photon hits a leaf, it frees a specific electron from a specific molecule and travels down and releases chemicals, which turn into sugar and release energy into the plant. So the indefinite future becomes a definite past.
The same as light hits a wall and then receives energy and heats up. All the time everywhere, the indefinite future is becoming the definite past. It’s happening all the time.
THIS QUANTUM COLLAPSE ALWAYS HAPPENING EVERYWHERE AND THEREFORE, THE FUTURE IS UNKNOWN UNTIL ALL OF THESE COLLAPSES — THE PHOTON HITS THE LEAF AND SO FORTH. WHY IS THIS CONSIDERED TO BE SO CONTROVERSIAL IN THE FACE OF EINSTEINIAN PHYSICS?
(Laughs) Einstein — what is controversial about it is that we don’t know the mechanism by which this takes place. We do not understand how quantum uncertainty gives way to classical certainty. That’s the collapse of the wave function. There are various theories about it and some people try to say that it does not happen. And they end up with the quantum Multiverse, which is a very strange thing in which every time a measurement takes place, they think that the whole universe splits into two, which I think is rather strange.
I take a more conservative position that there is a collapse of the wave function due to some collapse mechanism and we do not know at this time what that collapse mechanism is. But I would believe that there is such a mechanism.
If Einstein Is Right About A Fixed Future, How Could There Be Free Will?
COULD WE SHIFT TO THE PHILOSOPHICAL PERSPECTIVE THAT IF EINSTEIN WERE RIGHT, THEN ESSENTIALLY TIME AS AN ILLUSION WOULD IMPLY THAT THE FUTURE IS ALREADY SOMEHOW THERE AND WE’RE JUST MOVING THROUGH IT, ALPHA TO OMEGA.
IT SEEMS THAT WOULD TAKE AWAY ALL CONSCIOUSNESS HAVING FREE WILL.
That is correct, if that is true. And that is one of the reasons why I think Einstein has to be wrong.
THEN HOW HAS THIS PHYSICS PERSISTED WITHOUT OTHER SCIENTISTS RAISING THE QUESTION: THIS DOESN’T MAKE ANY SENSE TO THE UNIVERSE WE’RE IN?
Well, I’ve been thinking about the relationship of physics to complexity and the way that complexity emerges. And there is a fundamental thing that is happening and in fact I have just completed a book about this. The whole of this picture is built on the idea that everything that happens in the universe happens bottom up: - particle physics underlies nuclear physics - underlies atomic physics - underlies chemistry - underlies physiology - underlies the brain.
So, the idea is that all causation proceeds upwards. Now that is not the way things work in the real universe. There is equally a flow of causation downwards from the biggest scheme down to the smaller levels. And that is what was not taken into account by many physicists and I don’t think Einstein ever thought about this.
But If Future Blank, How Is Precognition Possible? See "Feeling the Future" in websites below.
IN MY OWN LIFE, I HAVE BEEN SAVED FROM A MORTAL SITUATION ON A ROAD WITH CARS BY SOMETHING COMING INTO MY MIND AND MAKING ME DRIVE MY CAR OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SIT THERE NOT KNOWING THAT WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN WAS A BIG SEMI-TRUCK OUT OF CONTROL WOULD BE COMING AROUND A BEND AND THAT WHATEVER IT WAS THAT MADE ME PARK ON THE ROAD WAITING AND THEN SEEING IN HORROR THAT IF I HAD KEPT GOING I WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD.
Mountain road image by Solomon Gabriel, Fotolia.com.
HOW DO WE DEFINE THESE MOMENTS IN LIFE WHERE SOMETHING SEES A FUTURE THAT IS GOING TO BE MORTAL AND SAVES US?
I cannot answer that one. I accept your description of what happened to you. Someone needs to collect statistics on these kinds of things and try to see if it happens often or? One has to keep statistics of cases when people may have had such a premonition and driven to the side of the road and nothing happened. (laughs) And you tend to remember the ones where you got it right and forget the ones where you did not get it right.
But you are asking me if it could be premonitions, connections. I’m open minded that it’s possible such can happen.
WHAT I’M RAISING IS: IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THERE IS A HYBRID BETWEEN EINSTEIN AND YOUR HYPOTHESIS SO THAT THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON AT THAT STRANGE BORDER BETWEEN THE TICKING PRESENT AND THE ONRUSHING FUTURE — THAT THERE IS SOME PART OF THE ALWAYS FORMING FUTURE THAT IS THERE IN SOME WAY AND CAN HAVE INFLUENCE ON THAT TICKING PRESENT, LIKE PULLING OVER WHEN A TRUCK IS COMING AROUND A BORDER BECAUSE SOMETHING IN ME DETECTED SOMETHING COMING.
Yeah. You hadn’t seen anything? You hadn’t heard anything before it happened? It was completely out of sight before it happened, right?
THAT’S RIGHT.
Yeah, the mind is always trying to predict what will happen. It’s always looking for patterns of the future and so on, but it sounds like in your case, you can’t explain it that way. This is not the same as the Einstein future fixed and unchanging. And the fact that you would do that (pull over) would have to be written back to the beginning of the universe. I simply don’t believe that.
(laughs) RIGHT. IT MAKES NO SENSE BECAUSE IT TAKES ALL FREE WILL FROM CONSCIOUSNESS FROM ONE END OF THE UNIVERSE TO THE OTHER.
Yeah!
4th Time Dimension and Gravity Waves
This illustration depicts the gravitational waves generated by two black holes orbiting each other. Illustration by NASA.
IS THERE ANY POSSIBILITY IN YOUR MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS MIND THAT THERE COULD BE SOME HYBRID THAT IS CLOSER TO A TRUTH. THAT THERE IS SOME KIND OF WRITING GOING ON IN THE FUTURE, SO TO SPEAK, AND WE’RE MOVING TO IT WHEN IT’S NEAR THIS BORDER BETWEEN PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE?
It seems unlikely to me, but as I said I’m an open minded guy (laughs). And I’m prepared to try to think about it.
THERE MIGHT BE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE 4TH DIMENSION OF TIME AND GRAVITY WAVES?
The gravity waves are traveling through space time and their oscillations in space time and so the 4th Dimension is involved. It’s all space/time curvature.
WHY IS IT THAT WE’RE IN 2015 GOING FORWARD AND AS I UNDERSTAND IT, WE STILL HAVE NOT DETECTED GRAVITY WAVES?
We’ve got some fantastic gravitation wave detectors coming online and they might detect gravitational waves directly in the next couple of years.
Direct detection? That will happen probably in the next couple of years, ten years maximum.
I’VE ALWAYS WONDERED WHY IS IT THAT GRAVITATIONAL WAVES HAVE PERSISTED MATHEMATICALLY, BUT WE’VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO DETECT THEM DIRECTLY?
It’s because the amplitude is so incredibly small.
ISN’T A WAVE FUNCTION A FREQUENCY?
It’s a mixture of frequencies. It’s a combination of frequencies all joined together.
JUMPING THE TRACK TO PHILOSOPHY AGAIN, THERE IS IN MANY DIFFERENT RELIGIOUS TEXTS THIS CONCEPT: IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD — WORD IS INTERPRETED AS SOUND FREQUENCY OR FREQUENCIES. IT IS THE IMPRESSION THAT WHETHER YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE PERIODIC TABLE OR ANYTHING ELSE IN PHYSICS THAT FREQUENCIES SEEM TO BE AT THE BASE OF EVERYTHING.
Yeah, waves are at the base of almost everything and that means frequencies.
IF YOU CONCENTRATE, FOR EXAMPLE, ENERGY ON A SPECIFIC FREQUENCY TO CHANGE IT A LITTLE BIT UP OR DOWN, YOU CAN DO IT DEPENDING ON WHETHER YOU RESONATE WITH THAT FREQUENCY OR YOU ARE IN CHAOS OR CONTRADICTION TO THAT FREQUENCY?
Yes, I could accept that description, yeah.
Time of Universe's Existence: Infinite Expansion or Collapse?
DO YOU THINK THE UNIVERSE WILL KEEP EXPANDING ENDLESSLY? OR DO YOU THINK THAT IT IS GOING TO REPEAT A COLLAPSE ON ITSELF?
It will expand forever.
AND WHAT IS INFINITE EXPANSION INTO? (laughs)
It’s not into anything. It’s just getting bigger. This is one of the difficult things to explain, but the universe does not have to be situated in a bigger space. It’s just all that there is and it’s just getting bigger.”

All over the globe, people are recording extremely loud sounds coming from the sky. In many instances, these ominous noises sound like someone is blowing a trumpet. So what are we supposed to make of these “apocalyptic” sounds? Should we be concerned? Well, what we do know is that this is truly a global phenomenon. In addition to being heard at locations all over the United States and Canada, these sounds have also been recorded in Germany, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Sweden, England, Costa Rica, Ukraine and France. If you go to YouTube and type in “strange sounds”, you will literally get hundreds of results from all over the planet. Of course there are many scientists that insist that there must be a “rational explanation” for these strange sounds. Some theories have suggested fracking, “rock bursts”, venting of high-pressure gas, atmospheric pressure or the natural “background noise” of our planet as the causes of these sounds, but so far none of those theories have been proven. But two things seem certain – these noises sure are creepy, and they just keep on happening.
And this phenomenon is now really starting to get a whole lot of attention. Just within the last month, there have been headlines about it in major new sources all over the planet. For instance, the following is a brief excerpt about this phenomenon from an article in the New York Post…
Video clips from around the world have captured an evil-sounding ‘trumpet’ noise coming from the sky — but no one can explain exactly what it is.
A number of people have filmed the bizarre sound over the past 10 years with the latest coming from Germany.
Video of this most recent incident that happened in Germany is posted below. What do you think could possibly be making this noise?…
As I discussed above, similar sounds have been recorded all over the globe in recent years. Very quickly, let me share four examples with you that were recently included in an article by Melissa Dykes.
Tectonic plates grinding –Tectonic plates are pieces of the Earth’s crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as the lithosphere. The plates are around 100 km (62 mi) thick and consist of two principal types of material: oceanic crust (also called sima from silicon and magnesium) and continental crust (sial from silicon and aluminium).
Atmospheric pressure –Atmospheric pressure is defined as the force per unit area exerted against a surface by the weight of the air above that surface.
Trains shunting –Self explanatory – noise comes from trains in reaction to the track and overhead wires.
Construction –Building works, especially if going on at the same time across a specific area, can led to similar sounds.
Aliens –Can this be an alien lifeform in the sky, perhaps scouring out Earth?
HAARP weapon –Rumors persist that the U.S. government uses secret weapons in the sky for defence and weather modifying, the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP). This wouldn’t explain the sounds in other countries however…
The Apocalypse and the Seven Trumpets of Heaven –Seven trumpets are sounded, one at a time, to cue apocalyptic events that were seen in the vision of the Revelation of Christ Jesus, by John of Patmos. Somewhat more worrying as it would signal the end of the world…
The scientists at NASA have a different explanation. What they think is being heard is simply the natural background noise that our planet is constantly producing…
According to NASA, it could be the earth’s ‘background noise’.
A statement from the agency said: ‘If humans had radio antennas instead of ears, we would hear a remarkable symphony of strange noises coming from our own planet. Scientists call them “tweeks,” “whistlers” and “sferics.”
‘They sound like background music from a flamboyant science fiction film, but this is not science fiction. Earth’s natural radio emissions are real and, although we’re mostly unaware of them, they are around us all the time.’
To me, that explanation by NASA doesn’t really ring true, but I don’t have a really good explanation either.
So what do you think?
Do you believe that you know what is causing these strange sounds?

Declassified FBI Report Confirms Beings From Other Dimensions Visited Earth
- By Ian Paxton - June 26, 2015
Almost 70 years ago, an FBI special agent wrote a report about the presence of beings from another dimension here on Earth.
The agent—a lieutenant colonel—labeled the report as “a memorandum of importance” and addressed it to “certain scientists of distinction to important aeronautical and military authorities, to a number of public officials and to a few publications.”
This particular report was kept secret until 2011, when the FBI declassified a series of documents and posted them on their FOIA library, The Vault. Although nearly seven decades have passed since it was written, the issues it dealt with are of even greater relevance today.
The anonymous FBI agent expressed his concern with regard to the flying saucer phenomenon; he acknowledged the fact that the UFOs were examples of technology far superior to that of our own and believed that any attempt to attack one would result in deadly retaliation.
In his opinion such an event would undoubtedly have lead to public panic and “international suspicion.”
Here’s a transcript of some of the most important details in the report:
Part of the disks carry crews, others are under remote control.
Their mission is peaceful. The visitors contemplate settling on this plane.
The visitors are human-like but much larger in size.
They are not excarnate Earth people, but come from their own world.
They do NOT come from a “planet” as we use the word, but from an etheric planet which interpenetrates with our own and is not perceptible to us.
The bodies of the visitors, and the craft, automatically materialize on entering the vibratory rate of our dense matter.
The disks posses a type of radiant energy or ray, which will easily disintegrate any attacking ship. They reenter the etheric at will, and so simply disappear from our vision, without a trace
The region from which they come is not the “astral plane”, but corresponds to the Lokas orTalas*. Students of esoteric matters will understand these terms.
They probably can not be reached by radio, but probably can be by radar, if a signal system can be devised for that.
* Loka and tala are Sanskrit terms first used in the metaphysical systems of ancient India. Loosely put, lokameans “place” or “world” while tala means “inferior world.” Every loka is linked to its corresponding tala and can never be separated.
It’s quite interesting to notice that the FBI would quote such esoteric matters in their official papers. Perhaps these metaphysical concepts are closer to reality than previously thought.
The information contained in this report seems to validate the Interdimensional Hypothesis, a theory that proposes an alternative explanation for the UFO phenomenon.
It was based on the ideas of ufologists such as Jacques Valée, who suggested that UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial in nature, but do not come from this reality.
Instead of mastering interstellar travel and visiting us from distant parts of our universe, the UFOs could be caused by the materialization of visitors from alternate realities or dimensions that coexist independently to our own.
This hypothesis is supported by the strange behavior UFOs exhibit, such as the ability to rapidly materialize/dematerialize.
In the words of UFO researcher John Weldon, “the UFO phenomenon simply does not behave like extraterrestrial visitors.”
You can find the report on the official FBI Vault HERE.
Dan Flynn: Well, many have wanted me to make shorter video’s. So, I’ve gone and created a trailer to the long video’s that I do, ever so, enjoy making. If one expects to find all the evidence neatly fit into one cookie jar? That one is in the wrong supermarket. Are UFO’s ‘more real than you’ll ever know?’ Click this link to find out: This is a trailer to: UFO Military Are Landing On Earth
Dan Flynn:Will earth be invaded by aliens from another planet / galaxy before we’re ever told that they even exist? Why are the masses so ignorant to want to continue to believe that intelligent life does not exist outside of earth when so very many thousands of people are coming forward with video and legal documents stating UFO’s and alien life actually exists. Video’s of Unidentified Flying Objects, the likes of what is now known on earth, dropping pods down to earth? What next? When will the race, as a whole, be able admit that there is more than meets the eye? Are we being invaded? Would we even know? All our nuclear weapons could very well be a ploy to let all aliens life forms know that ‘if you mess with earth, we’re pressing all the buttons? What do you think?
According to this new information the Russians have known about alien civilizations for several decades, to many this comes as no surprise, there have been rumors floating around for many years. Well respected military and government scientist have been trying to speak out on this issue for sometime now. In the vast majority of cases the mainstream media either treats this like a non event, or they treat it like the information is coming from very unreliable sources. This information is a big step in disclosure process for mankind.
With a slow start, the video takes you to a place few even know of. Was there an ancient race that lived in the Antarctic? Do they still live there, and are they ‘not so ancient?’ Do they control the world? Who, are, ‘they?’ Does Atlantis ‘exist, flourish and thrive in the Antarctic, with a race of highly intelligent beings whom control the world? History seems to imply that something is going on in the Antarctic and always has been going on. Are the pyramids under the Antarctic causing the global changes on earth? Strange reports of strange lands, strange, and ancient creatures, aliens, reptilians, and UFO’s, ‘all’ have been reported ‘by those with credentials’ (you see, few without ‘ever’ get to go there. Have you been there?).
Take that into account when doing your research. Research Hollow Earth, and Flat Earth where more evidence seems to imply, strongly, that we are not alone, at all, on this planet earth, and that there may be another species / race of intelligent being so very advanced (even so advanced to move landmasses, and melt ice faster than you ever could), that they appear magical to us mere humans? You be the judge. Around the 25 minute mark of this video, you may be thinking differently (come the half hour mark? You’re watching till the end). Ponder, wonder, think and dream.It’s what we’re here for.
This is part two. UFO’s from Mars? A war going on with the inhabitants of Mars? In March of 2014, a former US Marine named Randy Cramer also known as “Captain Kaye” revealed that he had spent 17 years on Mars as part of a highly classified mission called Mars Defense Force. In an Interview with ExoNews Tv, Captain Kaye reveals that about a year ago he was contacted by his superiors. He was told to make a disclosure about his covert service in Mars and time with the Secret Space Fleet.
In his revelations, Captain Kaye said that he spent three years of training in a secret space fleet called Earth Defense Force, a multi-national organization that recruits military personnel from US, Russia, and China. On his training, he said he flew anti-gravity vehicles throughout the solar system, and he was promoted to Captain. The training took place on a secret moon base called Lunar Operations Command, Saturn’s Moon Titan, and in deep space.
The ex-naval infantryman said he was posted to the Red Carpet to protect five human colonies from indigenous Martian life forms. According to him; the air is breathable on the surface of Mars and at times the temperature is very warm. Captain Kaye also revealed that the primary human colony on Mars is called Aries Prime that it is located inside a crater, and it also serves as their headquarters for the Mars Colony Corporation.
In his retirement ceremony after 20 years of service, he claims that it also took place on the moon, with VIP guests including ex-US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfield.
Captain Kaye said that there are two indigenous species in Mars. One was the Reptilian species, and the other was the Insectoid species, both are highly intelligent species. Reptilians are aggressive in defending their territory while the Insectoids species are equally capable of protecting their land.
However, Captain Kaye reported that there was an incident that happened that changed all combat personnel from the Mars Defense Force when they retrieved an extraterrestrial artifact from a sacred cave of the indigenous Reptilians. Over 1000 men and women were killed during the battle, and only 28 survived including him. For more information see the website link to ‘Alien UFO Sightings’. This video is NOT for the squeamish. I have a most interesting video that is upcoming. An interactive one that will, when all the dust of interaction has settled, reveal that which the video`s content is all about (can`t say just yet). Stay tuned. It`s March 8th 2015. You have a great week. I splashed up a few video`s too soon for my liking (as I`ve got three others in the making which I feel are more gripping), but I done gone and did it by releasing them. Cheers. I only intend to intrigue. The evidence being gathered seems to point to only one conclusion, that there is a relation between Mars and Egypt. I consider it adult material in the form of knowledge, AND Yes, I’m trying to make my videos shorter. Part one can be found here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9a89… Would it be safe to assume that the human race is traveling throughout space, right now, in spaceships the likes of what we have no idea? What else better than a world of slaves, taxed to the maximum and more to pay for all that labor, fuel and materials? You be the judge. Is it an impossible thought? We created the pyramids tens of thousands of years ago. It’s not a crazy assumption, at all. Going to mars, or anywhere in space, is not about finding life, you know? Finding life is secondary. It’s about the potential of resources, and any life, there, out in space, that resists and does not conform to our desires will be annihilated or taught to conform the hard way (like, as history proves to show humans did to their own kind for resources – it’s always about the resources, and that is what human kind must also realize if it is to continue onward consuming and consuming in the amount that it is). What do you think? I think the evidence in this video reveals just what is going on
The Dyatlov Pass incident was an event that resulted in the deaths of nine-out-of-ten hikers in the northern Ural Mountains on the night of February 2, 1959. The incident happened on the eastern side of Kholat Syakhl. Since then, the mountain pass where the incident occurred has been called Dyatlov Pass after the group’s leader, Igor Dyatlov.
Investigators determined that the skiers had torn their tents from the inside out in order to escape from an apparent threat. They fled the campsite, some of them barefoot, under heavy snowfall. Although the bodies showed no signs of struggle, two victims had fractured skulls and broken ribs, absent contusion. Soviet authorities determined that an “unknown compelling force” had caused the deaths; access to the region was consequently blocked for hikers and adventurers for three years after the incident. Due to the lack of survivors, the chronology of events remains uncertain, although several theories exist, some involving a possible avalanche, and a hostile encounter with Extraterrestrial Life.
VIDEO: Italië in de ban van indrukwekkende graancirkel
VIDEO: Italië in de ban van indrukwekkende graancirkel
In de gemeente Cervia in de Italiaanse provincie Ravenna is in de nacht van 19 op 20 juni een indrukwekkende graancirkel verschenen. Dat melden Italiaanse media. Inwoners van het plaatsje Milano Marittima keken ’s ochtends raar op toen in een graanveld aan de kust een enorme graancirkel was verschenen.
Graancirkels worden overal ter wereld gezien, waaronder in Italië, maar het gebeurt zelden dat ze in een badplaats verschijnen. Omdat de graancirkelmakers nooit op heterdaad worden betrapt blijft het fenomeen met veel mysterie omgeven.
Krachtige elektromagnetische velden
De Amerikaanse bioloog William Levengood ontdekte in de jaren negentig dat de gewassen waarin graancirkels werden aangetroffen soms curieuze biologische veranderingen hadden ondergaan. Zo bleken de zaden van graanplanten te zijn misvormd, en was het kiemgedrag van de zaden soms duidelijk anders.
Hoewel Levengood zijn bevindingen meermalen in wetenschappelijke tijdschriften heeft gepubliceerd, zijn er weinig wetenschappers die in zijn voetsporen traden. Hij documenteerde ook talloze vreemde waarnemingen bij graancirkels.
In 1999 publiceerde Levengood in het wetenschappelijke tijdschrift Physiologia Plantarum het artikel Dispersion of energies in worldwide crop formations, waarin hij suggereerde dat graancirkels ontstaan door middel van krachtige elektromagnetische velden.
Geoloog: "Sfinx van Gizeh is veel ouder dan gedacht"
Geoloog: “Sfinx van Gizeh is veel ouder dan gedacht”
Is een groot deel van de menselijke geschiedenis uit de schoolboeken gelaten? Geoloog dr. Robert Schoch bespreekt zijn onderzoek naar de beroemde Sfinx van Gizeh. De meeste egyptologen nemen aan dat de sfinx rond 2500 voor Christus is gebouwd.
Schoch heeft de sfinx recent gedateerd op 6000 tot 12.000 voor Christus op basis van tekenen van regenerosie. Het lichaam van de sfinx vertoont horizontale en verticale goten. Deze goten zouden tekenen van erosie zijn door langdurige en hevige regenval. De laatste periode van langdurige hevige regenval vond rond 10.000 voor Christus plaats.
Rond die tijd zou de sfinx een leeuw zijn geweest, die was gericht op het punt waar ’s morgens een deel van het jaar zijn evenbeeld aan de sterrenhemel opkomt. In de tijd van de farao’s zou uit de leeuwenkop een mensenhoofd zijn gehouwen, wat het veel te kleine hoofd van de sfinx in verhouding tot het lichaam zou verklaren.
De van oorsprong Belgische ingenieur Robert Bauval en Graham Hancock hebben deze theorie voor een breder publiek toegankelijk gemaakt. In de video gaat Schoch ook dieper in op het bergheiligdom Göbekli Tepe in Turkije en catastrofes in de oudheid.
VIDEO: NASA onderbreekt livefeed ruimtestation ISS 'nadat drie UFO's langs de aarde vliegen'
VIDEO: NASA onderbreekt livefeed ruimtestation ISS ‘nadat drie UFO’s langs de aarde vliegen’
De NASA zou de livestream vanaf het internationale ruimtestation ISS hebben onderbroken op het moment dat er drie UFO’s bij de aarde verschenen. Het houdt de gemoederen nogal bezig.
In de video zijn drie ongeïdentificeerde vliegende objecten te zien die uit de atmosfeer tevoorschijn komen. De lichten verlaten onze planeet enkele seconden voordat de livefeed door NASA wordt onderbroken omdat het ‘signaal was verbroken’.
“Bingo, op heterdaad betrapt terwijl ze de aarde verlaten,” schreef iemand onder het filmpje, dat zo’n 50.000 keer is bekeken. “Dit is het soort bewijs dat we nodig hebben.” NASA heeft nog niet gereageerd op de knipperende lichten tijdens de live-uitzending.
Volgens anderen kunnen het ook satellieten zijn of zijn de beelden bewerkt. Mensen die de livefeed vaak volgen zeggen dat de camera’s geregeld worden verwisseld en dat het beeld wel vaker wegvalt.
Het is niet de eerste keer dat complottheoretici claimen dat NASA buitenaardse activiteit heeft vastgelegd op camera. Er staan honderden filmpjes op YouTube waarin wordt beweerd dat er buitenaardse schepen bij het ruimtestation zijn gefilmd. Begin dit jaar werden de live-beelden van het ISS ook al onderbroken toen er een UFO in beeld verscheen.
Een graf met een buitenaards slachtoffer ( Video )
Een graf met een buitenaards slachtoffer ( Video )
In de Amerikaanse staat Texas bevond zich vroeger een kleine plaats genaamd Aurora.
Het was in feite een kleine voorstad van Fort Worth en het enige dat er nu eigenlijk nog van over is, is het kerkhof.
Wel een bijzonder kerkhof want het schijnt dat hier een buitenaards iemand begraven ligt.
Het verhaal begint met een artikel in The Dallas Morning News op 17 april 1897.
In dat artikel wordt verteld hoe lokale bewoners een vreemd zilverkleurig sigaarvormig object in de lucht waarnamen dat heen en weer wiebelde en steeds dichterbij de aarde kwam.
Uiteindelijk botste het tegen een windmolen op het land van de plaatselijke rechter, Judge Proctor, en explodeerde.
Klaarblijkelijk had het object één inzittende aan boord die niet onmiddellijk dood was, maar zwaar gewond. Het was een klein iemand die in een nabij gelegen schuur werd verpleegd, maar desondanks enkele uren later stierf.
Volgens het bericht in de krant was duidelijk dat degene in kwestie “niet van deze wereld was”.
De auteur van het artikel, S.E. Haydon, citeert een officier uit het leger die ter plaatse aanwezig was, met te zeggen dat deze van mening is dat de inzittende van het object afkomstig is van de planeet Mars.
Alhoewel de man een expert op het gebied van astronomie scheen te zijn, wordt verder niet duidelijk hoe hij kan weten of iemand van Mars komt of van een andere planeet.
De scene ter plaatse moet er ongeveer als volgt hebben uitgezien:
UFO onderzoeker Hayden Hewes sprak met talloze ooggetuigen en heeft aan de hand daarvan de volgende tekening gemaakt van de buitenaardse.
Door de jaren heen zijn er diverse illegale pogingen gedaan om het lichaam van deze buitenaardse op te graven, maar zonder succes omdat gewapende lokale bewoners dit wisten te voorkomen.
De vraag is of deze buitenaardse nog steeds daar ligt of door de overheid is opgegraven en meegenomen. Vlak na de ramp met het toestel gingen er verhalen dat er militairen waren gesignaleerd in Aurora.
Alien Spacecraft Sighting: Florida Witness Described Gray Rectangle Hovering
Alien Spacecraft Sighting: Florida Witness Described Gray Rectangle Hovering
The Sebring is a city in Florida with a population of 10,491. It is a peaceful town, but not an exception to the rule when it comes to strange sightings. At Palm Harbor; a Florida witness reported watching a rectangle-shaped strange object hovering in the sky. The occurrence is based on the testimony in Case 63122 from the Mutual UFO Network. When the object first came, the witness was lying in bed while looking out a window. At first, the witness failed to recognize the odd object claiming that it took a few minutes to process the mind. Afterwards, it was clearly seen as a gray, flat and rectangular-shaped object hovering gracefully in the sky. As the witness stared at the object, it finally moved into a better position favourable for viewing.
As the viewer changed its position to compare the object, it started disappearing. The object appeared like a cloud, or maybe a glint of light through a window. As the object is seen clearly from the open window, the object was still present. Therefore, it is not a glint of light. The edges of the object were straight and sharp. Furthermore, the rectangle was constantly hovering as if they were a levitating book. The witness alerted friends about the sighting and returned to view it. A few minutes later, however, when the witness looked at it, the odd object was covered in shadows.
Prior that night, many people across the county had seen three yellow/orange lights hovering in the sky around ten o clock. The witness’ dad explained it as flares, which is a gadget used by the military – he may be right or not. The witness heard that, on the same night, people across the country were seeing military flares hovering in the sky. Please remember that each sighting may be natural or man-made.
Filer’s Files #26 – Flying Saucers Serious Business - PART I
UFO captured over Marina, California on June 20, 2015
Filer’s Files #26 – Flying Saucers Serious Business - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover:Flying Saucers Serious Business, Optical and Photographic Technical Component Awareness Part 2, No Decision Yet on East Coast Missile Defense Site Letter from Earth Guardian Susan Signal, Holland Crop Circle in Wheat, and Mars Faces and Dam.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, and Texas.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Canada. Chile, China, South Africa, Turkey, England and Scotland in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation. The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force and Prince Phillip told me of his personal interest in UFOs. The US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
While I was in Vietnam in 1968, the US Air Force modified the weather! I suggest that a few airplanes could modify the strong storms we are having causing tornadoes and high winds.

Special Reports
Flying Saucers Serious Business Director of Canadian UFO Research Wilbur Smith’s Report
People who knew Wilbur Smith claim he was in contact with extraterrestrials and was provided some data on how the propulsion system operated although our technology was too primitive to duplicate the craft.
Wilbur states, “I visited with Admiral Knowles and I had with me a piece that had been shot from a small flying saucer near Washington in July of 1952. I showed it to the Admiral. It was a piece of metal about twice the size of my thumb which had been loaned to me for a very short time by your Air Force. I have handled many pieces of hardware that are much harder than our materials. The pilot was chasing a glowing disc about two feet in diameter. A glowing chunk flew off and the pilot saw it glowing all the way to the ground. He radioed his report and a ground party hurried to the scene. The thing was still glowing when they found it an hour later. The entire piece weighed about pound. The segment that was loaned to me weighed about a third of that. (Analysis) There was iron rust – the thing was in reality a matrix of magnetism orthosilicate.”
The matrix had great numbers – thousands – of 15-micron spheres scattered through it. He returned the piece to a special group much higher than the Air Force. He also stated the Canadian government had recovered a large amount of unknown metal from a craft that crashed about 3000 pounds of it.
If the remains of the crashed craft are not in the hands of the military, they can justly claims they have no evidence. Saucers Are Serious Business Pages 49-50.
On June 25, 1952, Smith submitted an interim report on Project Magnet in which he stated that, “It appeared evident that flying saucers are emissaries from other civilizations and actually operate on magnetic principles, that we have failed to grasp due to our not paying enough attention to the structure of fields in our study of physics. Bremner arranged an interview with Dr. Robert Sarbacher, an electrical engineer and guided missile scientist with an impressive background, but most importantly, who was then a consultant to the U.S. Research and Development Board (RDB). In the interview on September 15, 1950, Sarbacher was to tell Bremner/Smith that Scully was essentially correct, flying saucers existed, they didn’t originate on Earth, and the subject was the most highly classified in the U.S. government, at a level higher than the H-bomb”.
This is all recorded in Smith’s handwritten notes of the meeting and a top secret memo Smith wrote to the Canadian Dept. of Transport on November 21, 1950. Smith’s memo also stated that Dr. Vannevar Bush [the former U.S. head of the OSRD (Office of Scientific Research & Development) during WWII and who created the postwar RDB] was in charge of a small group looking into the “modus operandi” of the saucers. (The latter piece of information was not in Smith’s notes of the meeting and may have come from another government source.)
Note: These small spheres may be like the orbs frequently seen today. They may operate similar to drones sending video back to larger craft. Frank Edwards had insider contacts. Please see Grant Cameron’s website for more details.
Optical and Photographic Technical Component Awareness Part 2
Chuck Reever MUFON’s International Director of Investigation writes, “There is also a condition called ‘Blooming.’ This “saturation” of light occurs when a digital camera “Pixel Array” has been saturated with an excess amount of light through over-exposure”
BLOOMING: (This effect is due to camera design and may be mistaken for structure or object. All digital cameras may incur this effect. Refer to second photograph from the left.)
Saturation of light in one or several sections of a camera “Pixel Array” may result in “blooming.”
The first image on the left shows a single star which has been over-saturated or “bloomed.”
There may be an image with small spikes coming from it (as shown in the second picture) or an elongated star image with tiny spikes (Spikes may also be produced by reflecting telescope “Spiders” which hold a “secondary” mirror in the front of the telescope.)
The second image from the left (with the Spikes) in the photos directly above shows a very dark rectangular area in the center of the image, this is also “blooming.” Very bright object are always suspect. Many Cell phones when pointed at the Sun record a very perfect “Flying Saucer” when a photograph is taken.” This is a result of the cell phone “aperture” and “blooming.”
A very bright Moon may also show a similar rectangular section in “red” or other color as a result of “blooming.” If internal structure is noted in or on an object, the investigator must try to determine if other objects in the same general field of view were in focus when using camera or binoculars etc. Objects in focus near to the witness may be in focus due to camera lens programming and objects in the distance may not be in focus. The investigator must be cautious here.
STRUCTURE:
If the witness has observed the “object” through binoculars and states there is/was structure, be aware of the potential mistake of witness information. Sometimes when photographing objects in the sky even the slightest miss-focus may cause structure to appear. All photographs should be inspected for false focus adjustment and must be very carefully evaluated.
In 2014 I talked to an investigator in Europe. He saw a perfect saucer with what appeared to be a “cupola” in the video. Upon inspection this object only appeared if the camera was just very slightly out of focus. There have been other instances in past investigations of this nature.
OBJECTS NEAR THE HORIZON:
Objects near the horizon may cause witnesses to report activity when there is none. When looking through our atmosphere to the horizon or even somewhat above, there are more atmospheres to look through than if one looks straight up in the sky to the Zenith. This thicker or denser atmosphere may “twinkle” more than the rest of the sky. Due to refraction of light near the horizon objects may appear to have color when in fact this maybe just the effect of the atmosphere. Objects may appear to move about in strange ways due to the turbulence of the atmosphere which causes “Scintillation” or “Twinkling.” Astronomers call this turbulence “Seeing” and rated on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being a perfect night for observation or photography. This is why observatories are built at high elevations. (There are other reasons also.) Just be aware of these effects when reviewing cases that include information concerning the elevation of objects in the sky with color(s) and erratic movements near the horizon.
TESTING BINOCULARS OR TELESCOPE, SPOTTING SCOPE OPTICS:
NEVER LOOK AT THE SUN THROUGH ANY OPTICAL SYSTEM OR WITH YOUR UNAIDED EYE.
One may view Diffraction rings through binoculars. Place the binoculars on a star, (not a bright one but one which is dim.). Roll the focus wheel back and forth through inside of focus through to outside of focus. When the binoculars are in focus there should be no “rings.” (In poor systems there may be some kind of “ring” system observed.) However, notice that as you go back and forth the “rings” probably do not stay round, but rather may appear “squished” or take on a strange shape on either side of perfect focus. This occurs in poor optical system. In good telescope optics the “rings” always stay round. Thanks to Chuck Reever
No Decision Yet on East Coast Missile Defense Site
The Defense Department has not made a decision on the establishment of an East Coast-based missile defense site, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said today.
Navy Adm. James A. Winnefeld Jr. focused on U.S. missile defense during a discussion on national security at the Center for Strategic and International Studies here. “We want our adversaries to know that not only is there a price for attacking us or our friends,” he said, “but also that the attack may not succeed in the first place, resulting in pain but no gain.”In improving the entire U.S. defense missile system, Winnefeld said a holistic view must be taken to ensure limited resources are “wisely” invested — not just in ground-based interceptors.“In this light,” he said, “there has been a lot of talk about installing an East Coast missile field. However, Winnefeld said, the only reason to make that investment would be to provide the capability to shoot, assess and then shoot again, which can only be done if the sensors needed to do so are in place.“We need to put our ability to see targets at the head of the line, and therefore, there’s been no decision yet by the department to move forward with an additional [continental U.S.] interceptor site though we very well could do that,” he said.
“Meanwhile,” Winnefeld added, “our current sites — Vandenberg [Air Force Base, California] and Fort Greeley in Alaska — protect the U.S. homeland from the existing and the projected ICBM threat from North Korea and Iran should either of them really emerge.”
At the apex of any country’s national security interests, the vice chairman said, is its own survival — the U.S. is no different. “At the top of the list of threats to that interest is, of course, a massive nuclear attack from Russia or some other high-end potential adversary like China,” Winnefeld said. “This is about existential attacks,” he explained, “attacks that are extremely hard to defend against, and because we prefer to use the deterrent of missile defense in situations where it has the highest probability of being most effective, we’ve stated that missile defense against these high-end threats is too hard and too expensive and too strategically destabilizing to even try.”
Winnefeld said the number of nations trying to achieve that capability is growing rather than shrinking and the department’s principal current concern is North Korea, “because they are closest in terms of capability, followed by Iran.”
He added, “A robust and capable national missile defense is our best bet to defend the United States from such an attack. That’s why the Ground-based Midcourse Defense program, is going to remain our first priority in missile defense.” Thanks to Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone Marshall on Twitter: @MarshallDoDNews DoD News, Defense Media Activity
Letter from Earth Guardian Susan Signal
I receive a series of letters from people who claim they are walk-ins from other planets. They often hold important positions and one ran a multi-million dollar company using some of his off planet inventions. Susan has memories’ that might interest you.
Susan writes, “My experiences started back in 1966-67, when I was 6-7 years old. I was sleeping when I had this dream of flying a ship which entered the Earths’ solar system faster than the speed of light.
Due to the very nature of my dream and its implications, I knew I couldn’t tell my mom like any other child tells their mom because of her not believing in ‘spaceships’. So, I was alone on this one and had to sort it out on my own. This was only the beginning of self re-discovery and a long bonding relationship with them.
A few days later in 1967, after the recall-reoccurring dream, I had a dream where I was in the mother ship being shown a series of cylinders with embryos in them. There was a couple standing in front of me as three aliens (ovoids-not greys) told me what they were. They also made it clear that I’m one of them and those were my real parents. They explained in great detail just how they did the in vitro method and that this method ruled out my Earth dad as my real father, but not my Earth mom as my real mother.
I somehow knew they were my real parents from my past life and felt a very strong maternal bond to both of them. I was in tears and didn’t want to leave the ship. They told me ”Don’t worry you will be with us while you are here, we will always be with each other up in ships, your DNA from your past-life body is you now, we put the past-life body DNA in the Earth mother’s egg and these 2 parents are really your parents from the past-life.” When I heard that I felt real sad like someone stole my life and parents from me. I was also shown the 3 beings that did this. There was also a show of the ethers I was floating around in, in the Earths’ atmosphere when they located my soul. I knew right then that there is such a thing as reincarnation, but again, couldn’t tell my mom because of her beliefs. I would wake up sitting cross legged staring at the closet. As the visits progressed, I was shown the mother ship, my former real people and felt quite at home there. This ship is the main mother ship of our people.
As a result of these experiences, I started reading all kinds of books on physics, reincarnation, quantum mechanics, dreams and psychology. I accelerated my intelligence from average reading level to above average in grade school and 3rd college year reading comprehension level when I graduated high school. I pursued a career in technology and acquiring several degrees in science and certifications in OSHA. I’ve always been driven and still deeply involved with them.

Ariel Phenomenon
On September 16, 1994, at the Ariel primary school in Zimbabwe, 60+ school children reported seeing a disc shaped craft land in the area beyond the playground, and two beings approach the group. There were also multiple reports of sightings of unusual phenomena by thousands of Zimbabweans during this same time period. This case was so sensational at the time that Dr. John Mack, a Pulitzer Prize winning Harvard psychiatrist, traveled to the school to interview the children. Initially covered by the BBC, Reuters and other world press, this sighting quickly disappeared from the public eye. Until now. American filmmaker Randall Nickerson recently traveled to Africa and around the world to locate and interview the now adult witnesses and others who were key participants in the event. “Ariel Phenomenon” documents the story of this incredible occurrence, then and now, and will show the impact that has lasted for over twenty years.
Join the filmmakers in completing this amazing film. Word of the “Ariel Phenomenon” film has gotten out and several new witnesses have come forward who will need to be interviewed in order to tell the story in its entirety. Help is needed in completing these last interviews and in the remaining post production necessary to complete this extraordinary film this year. An Indiegogo campaign is currently under way, until June 18, 2015. The production team is asking for help to complete these last crucial interviews. The Indiegogo campaign
A film trailer and more details about this historic event can be found at Film Trailer. You can also become part of the film’s team and follow its progress on Facebook at “Ariel School Documentary” and Twitter at “Ariel School Film”.
Holland Crop Circle in Wheat
Zevenbergen — Nancy Talbott, BLT Research Team Inc. writes, “For several days both Robbert and I had been telling each other we felt a new circle was coming…I thought it would come Saturday night, but it didn’t and on Sunday night at 11:02 pm (Dutch time, 5:02 pm E. Coast U.S. time) Robbert skyped, saying he’d called Roy because he was sure it was coming now”. Roy had arrived when Robbert skyped me and, by then, Robbert had gotten an image in his mind’s eye of what the new grain formation would look like near Zevenbergen.
He also “saw” an actual street name this time (Mrenswegje). I got Robbert to hold up his sketch and made sure the clock in his kitchen also showed, so we could demonstrate the day and time.
This is a fairly big formation —146 feet. overall and the big center circle is 84 feet in diameter — and it was quite far into the field. When they arrived Robbert “saw” (in his “mind’s eye”) something really big hovering over this field and then knew this was where they should stop. Although it was very dark Robbert somehow picked the right tram-line the first time and, as they entered the field, both men said they felt “something was following them; something not visible was above their heads and watching them that Robbert felt was a UFO.
In one of Astrid’s fairly close shots I could see a huge elongation of the apical nodes in one of the STANDING center plants (red arrow), as well as clear bending of the bottom nodes at the base of the center swirl.
When Robbert called me after finding the formation he said that as he entered the field he had also felt a “pressure” on his head and shoulders….and then remarked about a “heat” he had felt on his chest—as if the sun, or a heater, was aimed right at his chest. He’s never commented on anything like this to me before. (see BLT report ). As Robbert looked up toward the “energy” Dan’s video camera suddenly began to darken all by itself until its LED screen was almost totally black due to the “energy” present.
It was as I was working on those exact photos that Robbert had just entered the field in Holland—and I, here in Cambridge, also began feeling an intense heat but, in my case, on my back—to the point where I turned around to see if the sun or a heater of some kind was aimed at my back. As Robbert and I told each other this we both recognized another incident during which we were both connected—not just to each other, but to the “energy.”
A woman Robbert doesn’t know who lives in the Utrecht area had emailed Robbert two days before the cc appeared, saying she ALSO had been feeling a new formation was coming…and she actual also enclosed a drawing of what she “saw” it might look like. Apple Report Pt1.

Mars Faces and Dam
The news was reporting a pyramid on Mars, but I do believe that this was just the pinnacle structure of a much larger building that was buried below the dirt or destroyed. There is also a face near the pyramid and two other not far away. The news didn’t report about the faces, so I decided to make my own video to let you know.
This week a UFO researcher who goes by the name of Martian Archeology on YouTube found what looks like to many to be a intelligently made water dam. I have to agree, this does look like it held water and I did find signs of some ancient black structures in the photo a little ways away. Also I found the face of the species that lived in this area of Mars. The face has a beard and mustache and a face similar to humans, but it’s lost a lot of details over the years. I told you, when you find a face.

Sightings of UFOs in the United States
California Lights
Orange — On June 17, 2015, I was in my back yard when I began to notice a grouping of seven unusual lights to the north. They were already fairly high in the sky when first noticed so I cannot say definitely that they ascended from the ground or descended to the ground. My first thought was that some idiots had let off some Japanese lanterns. But then I noticed that they seemed to move on their own volition and appeared to move around each other too. I also had the feeling they were far away; but they were as bright as the aircraft coming into John Wayne Airport. I got my phone and took a picture; and disappeared. But within a minute only five were back and hovered and played tag with each other. Two more were gone and only three remained, hovering stationary before blinking out. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Marina— My wife took a picture on our way to my son’s baseball game on June 20, 2015, and this object was seen in the picture after we looked at it later.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Disc
Denver — I was outside in my backyard taking photos of the sky on June 20, 2015. Right next to the Sun was a huge contrail left by a plane flying overhead.
I shot directly into the Sun and did not see the object until I uploaded it to my computer. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Rectangle
Hollywood – I was looking toward the airport or Port Everglades and noticed a funny looking rain cloud. It’s entire length seemed to be moving (shimmering actually) like it was filled with rain and moving and in the process of a heavy downpour, only, the sky was very blue all around and no dark or grey clouds were anywhere close. When I took this shot, I did not notice the soft white glows on the top of the formation, nor did I notice the approaching black rectangular object to the left.
Note:The cloud formation is interesting, but not unusual. The upper part of the cloud could be the result of a dissipating thunderstorm. The witness mentioned a rectangular object. The enlargement above likely shows the object mentioned by the witness. It is difficult to say anything definitive about the object (highlighted in the above photo) because it contains only a few pixels. Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw
Georgia Orbs
Van War–I was grilling outside when I saw the shape of the object on August 4, 2012.It was a strange looking cloud that dissipated and suddenly disappeared. I also have video of black helicopters just after spotting object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Lights
Quincy – On June 20, 2015, I was taking picture of storm clouds. No camera flash and not through glass. I did not notice the lights until looking at picture the next day. Was told to submit photo to this site to see what others think the lights might be. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey UFO
Mount Laurel — My son and I pulled over into a development to look at some houses on June 20, 2015. We shot a brief video so I could show my wife a couple of the nicer homes. After viewing the video several times, I noticed a very quick blip halfway through. Upon viewing with the slider on slow motion, I thought it could be nothing other than a UFO. After reviewing the footage and examining a couple screen captures I perceived the object as either diamond or triangular in shape. It possibly had a relatively small dome on top. The object had a straight line path and based on my estimates (iPhone 30 fps default video recording and relative distance / distance covered) was traveling 800-1200 mph? We really weren’t aware of the object while the object passed us. In the video, it accelerated and flew out of view of video. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Light
Brevard–I was heading into a store. I saw an object moving across the sky on June 11, 2015. I took a picture and went on into the store at 9:49 PM. I told the clerk and he came out to see it, but it was gone.
Note: The adjusted contrast of the photo reveals a possible Chinese lantern. A “candle-like” structure is seen within the object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Disc
Middletown— As a kid, in about 3rd grade, I was staying over at a friend’s house watching the movie Twister. We were in his bedroom with our backs to the window on June 16, 2001 when I suddenly had the urge to turn and look out the window. I stared in awe at a saucer shaped silver/grey object with red and blue lights around it that blinked in a pattern. It was about 50 feet in the air and 50 feet away and descending slowly with three stilt-like landing prongs came from the bottom of a domed part of the craft. It also had a triangular shape structure on top of the craft with two antennas. I motioned to my friend to look as the craft slowly descended and landed in a wooded area that railroad tracks ran through right behind his backyard. He ran to get his dad, who then came and looked out the window seeing nothing, and informed us that it was just our imaginations and to go to sleep. I have had dreams that I had gone out to the backyard and was confronted by “grey” beings who I communicated with me telepathically. We are both sure we saw the UFO and will never forget. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Tennessee Crop Circle
Gray— It’s a little ironic that this circle was discovered in a city call Gray, as if named after the species of aliens that are a meter tall with grey skin and big heads. It may be a message that a UFO wanted to analyze the crop for any DNA modifications of the food on June 1, 2015.Carty said he is sure of one thing, “If the little green men are coming this way, I’m not ready for them, I’m ready for the good Lord to come after me.” Both men said. “There are no tracks, human or machine, anywhere near the diagram so I hope we don’t get any alien abductions and remember to count your cows.” News source
Texas Light
McKinney — I was taking a Morning Prayer walk on June13, 2015, when I noticed the sky open up faster than normal. I took it as an answer to prayer and snapped two pictures. About 5 hours later I pulled them up to show my wife and we noticed a green spot in one of the pics and expanded both pictures and saw the ufo in two positions with different lighting on both pictures.
I only noticed the rapid opening up in the sky with the sun shining through the clouds. It was a dark cloudy morning so the sun shine peaked through brighter than usual. I didn’t notice the ufo until later that afternoon when I pulled the pics up on my phone.Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia Disc
Writs A friend sent me this photo of a UFO rising up from a valley somewhere in Australia on June 7th, 2015 at 6:19 am. The picture was taken from a car window while parked on the side of the road. The yellow/orange light coming from the UFO is reflecting off the guard rail by the roadside into the camera after it was reflected off the side of the car onto the guardrail. The brightness of the light off the guardrail gives you some idea of the intensity of the light coming from the craft. You can see shadows of trees between the craft that the occupants of the car captured in the picture which gives it some scale as does the guardrail in the forefront of the picture. Thanks to Tony Woody
Beckenham Perth– I was at an outdoor birthday celebration as the children were looking at the stars on June 9, 2015. When lights were first noticed I thought it was a domestic airplane flying at a very high altitude. There were three lights grouped something like navigation lights on a commercial airplane but these were much larger and brighter. The lights were flashing at roughly the same rate as normal aircraft moving north at about the same speed as an airplane at high altitude. When the lights were directly above they turned west and after 30 seconds they disappeared. I could see a commercial airplane landing at Perth airport at the same time. I feel it classifies as a UFO because its altitude, right angle change of direction and sudden disappearance. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Triangles
Wheatley,Ontario — I am reporting this sighting for my sister and her boss that saw four white/pink stars like objects in formation on June 9th, 2015, at 10 pm, for about three hours. Three were forming a triangle with the fourth leading. The leading object was the most active, making weaving and figure eight maneuvers.
These objects had a physical effect on the surrounding clouds, forming a circle of clear space around the formation. Sometime after the sighting, a FM 96 radio station in London, Ontario (London’s Best Rock) shared a listener’s post on Face book, featuring two photographs of the same formation.
Only three of the four objects were sighted at this time.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Summerside Prince Edward — It was a nice sunny day, perfect for a walk on June 16, 2015. two of my friends and I went down to the waterfront and noticed the tide was out. We decided to take a walk across the sea bed to take some photos of the shoreline. As we were leaving I had this feeling come over me to take one last picture of the lighthouse, so I snapped the shot. We hadn’t noticed the UFO at this time because it made no sound. I was about to show the pictures to a friend when I noticed an object in the sky above the lighthouse. It looked as if this triangular-shaped object was either hovering or flying by. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Chile: UFO
La Raja — A luminous object startled fans enjoying the soccer game at the National Stadium on June 12, 2015. It was crossed the skies over Nuñoa for nearly 3 minutes. It was gone in the same way it appeared. The alleged UFO during the opening ceremonies of the Copa America at the National Stadium was swift and fleeting. The fireworks launched at the sports arena drew the attention of one supporter, who took out his cell phone quickly to capture the moment. However, he never thought he’d find a luminous object moving strangely, from side to side – a movement far from what one would expect of an aircraft.
Could it be a UFO? The images are eloquent. The conclusions are yours to draw. UFO Sightings Thanks to ufosightingsdaily
Foshan, Guangdong Province — One of the things that are interesting is that this UFO was seen during sunset on June 17, 2015. Some UFO cloaks are vulnerable during sunset and this causes them to become visible for anywhere between 30 seconds to 15 minutes. Sunset is the most common time of day to see a UFO. Watch a hundred sunsets and record it. You will see 4-10 UFOs during this time.Most people are not aware how alien technology can create clouds or cloak itself to look like a cloud. We see a UFO rise up out of the cloud so it could view the people below. The object is solid not gases because I see there is a shadow on the UFO that comes from the cloud below it. Scott C. Waring China News states: “The stunning picture, taken on June 17, 2015 shows rare lenticular clouds in the sky over Foshan.LINK
South Africa Lights
Cape Town— On Sunday night 14th June 2015, I was driving with my son and girlfriend and we saw something like never before three triangular shaped lights in the sky. It was the most amazing sight, in a split second it came together and disappeared so fast. I would like to know if anyone has seen this in Cape Town it was about 8 pm. Thanks to Delia Brookes, Coalition Trading Delia’s Assessing and UFOINFO.
Turkey Light
I was just taking video of sky and wish to see ufos. And I analyzed my video, so catch these two UFOs on August 18, 2015.
Object moved from top to the bottom of image.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Lights
Plymouth – It occurred to me I should go out and look at the stars on June 19, 2015, and saw an orange orb in the sky. Then it became apparent this was a trapezium craft; with one on the top and another on the bottom: fitted together perfectly. It flashed a series of white (or gold), red and green lights from its exterior, as it stopped hovering and ascended. It flew up slowly staying beneath the cloud level. When it reached its maximum height at about 200 feet, it hovered for as I took a series of 6 photographs; two of which caught an image of the object. Then, it flew quickly over my house and I saw at the base of the craft a brilliant white light; a circle, like a tractor beam, that didn’t reflect offs any materials. I felt excited and equally scared. Its lights were unfamiliar as it made the sound of a supersonic boom, and I couldn’t see it past that. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Scotland Orb
Dornoch — My wife and I were walking our dog at “Grannies Heilin Hame” caravan site at Embo, on June 1, 2015, when she noticed a white light slowly moving east across the sky at 60° high. I went to my caravan to get my Canon EOS 600D camera and took a picture zooming right in on the bright silent object. I thought nothing of it until I downloaded it onto my laptop and zoomed in. The bright dot became a delta shape and numerous other worm-shaped “craft” are clearly seen around it. I found out later that adjacent to the caravan site is a military practice bombing range. It’s possible that the objects are linked with the exercises or it just MAY be alien craft checking out the area to see our defenses.
Note: The apparent shape of the light in the photo is probably not real and due to camera “jiggle” or the movement of the object. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com

Monster black hole wakes up after 26 years
Monster black hole wakes up after 26 years
Artist’s impression of a black hole feasting on matter from its companion star in a binary system. Material flows from the star towards the black hole and gathers in a disc, where it is heated up, shining brightly at optical, ultraviolet and X-ray wavelengths before spiralling into the black hole. Part of the disc material does not end up onto the black hole but is ejected the form of two powerful jets of particles. On 15 June 2015, the black-hole binary system V404 Cygni started showing signs of extraordinary activity, something that had not happened since 1989. The system consists of a black hole about twelve times more massive than the Sun and a companion star about half as massive as the Sun. Image credit: ESA/ATG medialab.
Over the past ten days, ESA’s Integral satellite has been observing an exceptional outburst of high-energy light produced by a black hole that is devouring material from its stellar companion.
X-rays and gamma rays point to some of the most extreme phenomena in the universe, such as stellar explosions, powerful outbursts and black holes feasting on their surroundings.
In contrast to the peaceful view of the night sky we see with our eyes, the high-energy sky is a dynamic light show, from flickering sources that change their brightness dramatically in a few minutes to others that vary on timescales spanning years or even decades.
On 15 June 2015, a long-time acquaintance of X-ray and gamma ray astronomers made its comeback to the cosmic stage: V404 Cygni, a system comprising a black hole and a star orbiting one another. It is located in our Milky Way galaxy, almost 8,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus, the Swan.
In this type of binary system, material flows from the star towards the black hole and gathers in a disc, where it is heated up, shining brightly at optical, ultraviolet and X-ray wavelengths before spiraling into the black hole.
This animation show the patch of the sky where the black-hole binary system V404 Cygni is located, as observed with the IBIS instrument on ESA’s Integral gamma-ray observatory. Before the outburst on 19 May 2015: V404 Cygni is not present, and its position is marked with a cross. After the outburst on 18 June 2015: V404 Cygni is the brightest source in the field. The two sources Cygnus X-1 and Cygnus X-3, present in both images, are some of the brightest objects in the X-ray sky. Other transient sources are also present in both images, highlighting the great variability of the high-energy sky. Image credits: Carlo Ferrigno, Integral Science Data Centre, Geneva, Switzerland. AN animation by Ade Ashford.
First signs of renewed activity in V404 Cygni were spotted by the Burst Alert Telescope on NASA’s Swift satellite, detecting a sudden burst of gamma rays, and then triggering observations with its X-ray telescope. Soon after, MAXI (Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image), part of the Japanese Experiment Module on the International Space Station, observed an X-ray flare from the same patch of the sky.
These first detections triggered a massive campaign of observations from ground-based telescopes and from space-based observatories, to monitor V404 Cygni at many different wavelengths across the electromagnetic spectrum. As part of this worldwide effort, ESA’s Integral gamma-ray observatory started monitoring the outbursting black hole on 17 June.
“The behaviour of this source is extraordinary at the moment, with repeated bright flashes of light on time scales shorter than an hour, something rarely seen in other black hole systems,” comments Erik Kuulkers, Integral project scientist at ESA.
“In these moments, it becomes the brightest object in the X-ray sky — up to fifty times brighter than the Crab Nebula, normally one of the brightest sources in the high-energy sky.”
This graph shows variation in the X-ray luminosity of the black-hole binary system V404 Cygni, as observed with the IBIS/ISGRI instrument on ESA’s Integral gamma-ray observatory at energies between 20 and 40 keV compared to the Crab Nebula (pink). On 15 June 2015, V404 Cygni started showing signs of extraordinary activity, something that had not happened since 1989. The renewed activity is likely caused by material slowly piling up in the disc, until eventually reaching a tipping point that dramatically changes the black hole’s feeding routine for a short period.

The V404 Cygni black hole system has not been this bright and active since 1989, when it was observed with the Japanese X-ray satellite Ginga and high-energy instruments onboard the Mir space station.
The 1989 outburst of V404 Cygni was crucial in the study of black holes. Until then, astronomers knew only a handful of objects that they thought could be black holes, and V404 Cygni was one of the most convincing candidates.
A couple of years after the 1989 outburst, once the source had returned to a quieter state, the astronomers were able to see its companion star, which had been outshone by the extreme activity. The star is about half as massive as the Sun, and by studying the relative motion of the two objects in the binary system, it was determined that the companion must be a black hole, about twelve times more massive than the Sun.
At the time, the astronomers also looked back at archival data from optical telescopes over the twentieth century, finding two previous outbursts, one in 1938 and another one in 1956.
These peaks of activity, which occur every two to three decades, are likely caused by material slowly piling up in the disc surrounding the black hole, until eventually reaching a tipping point that dramatically changes the black hole’s feeding routine for a short period.
“Now that this extreme object has woken up again, we are all eager to learn more about the engine that powers the outburst we are observing,” says Carlo Ferrigno from the Integral Science Data Center at the University of Geneva, Switzerland.
“As coordinators of Integral operations, Enrico Bozzo and I received a text message at 1:30 am on 18 June from our burst alert system, which is designed to detect gamma-ray bursts in the Integral data. In this case, it turned out to be ‘only’ an exceptional flare since Integral was observing this incredible black hole: definitely a good reason to be woken up in the middle of the night!”
Since the first outburst detection on 15 June by the Swift satellite, V404 Cygni has remained very active, keeping astronomers extremely busy. Over the past week, several teams around the world published over twenty Astronomical Telegrams and other official communications, sharing the progress of the observations at different wavelengths.
This exciting outburst has also been discussed by astronomers attending the European Week of Astronomy and Space Science conference this week in Tenerife, sharing information on observations that have been made in the past few days.
Integral too has been observing this object continuously since 17 June, except for some short periods when it was not possible for operational reasons. The X-ray data show huge variability, with intense flares lasting only a couple of minutes, as well as longer outbursts over time scales of a few hours. Integral also recorded a huge emission of gamma rays from this frenzied black hole.
Because different components of a black-hole binary system emit radiation at different wavelengths across the spectrum, astronomers are combining high-energy observations with those made at optical and radio wavelengths in order to get a complete view of what is happening in this unique object.
“We have been observing V404 Cygni with the Gran Telescopio Canarias, which has the largest mirror currently available for optical astronomy,” explains Teo Muñoz-Darias from the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias in Tenerife, Spain.
Using this 10.4-metre telescope located on La Palma, the astronomers can quickly obtain high quality spectra, thus probing what happens around the black hole on short time scales.
“There are many features in our spectra, showing signs of massive outflows of material in the black hole’s environment. We are looking forward to testing our current understanding of black holes and their feeding habits with these rich data,” adds Muñoz-Darias.
Radio astronomers all over the world are also joining in this extraordinary observing campaign. The first detection at these long wavelengths was made shortly after the first Swift alert on 15 June with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager from the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory near Cambridge, in the UK, thanks to the robotic mode of this telescope.
Like the data at other wavelengths, these radio observations also exhibit a continuous series of extremely bright flares. Astronomers will exploit them to investigate the mechanisms that give rise to powerful jets of particles, moving away at velocities close to the speed of light, from the black hole’s accretion disc.
There are only a handful of black-hole binary systems for which data have been collected simultaneously at many wavelengths, and the current outburst of V404 Cygni offers the rare chance to gather more observations of this kind. Back in space, Integral has a full-time job watching the events unfold.
“We have been devoting all of Integral’s time to observe this exciting source for the past week, and we will keep doing so at least until early July,” comments Peter Kretschmar, ESA Integral mission manager.
“The observations will soon be made available publicly, so that astronomers across the world can exploit them to learn more about this unique object. It will also be possible to use Integral data to try and detect polarisation of the X-ray and gamma ray emission, which could reveal more details about the geometry of the black hole accretion process. This is definitely material for the astrophysics textbooks for the coming years.”

A Neptune-size planet appears to be masquerading as a comet, with a gargantuan stream of gas flowing behind it like a comet's tail.
The bizarre find is the first of its kind ever discovered by astronomers. The strange, cometlike planet, known as GJ 436b, is orbiting a red dwarf star and is about 22 times as massive as Earth. Astronomers detected the giant gas cloud around the planet using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory.
"I was astonished by the mere size of the cloud of gas escaping from the planet," said study lead author David Ehrenreich, an astronomer at the observatory of the University of Geneva in Switzerland. [The Strangest Alien Planets]
