The Truth is Back Out There! First Pics of The X-Files Revival

Here's a nice little weekend gift for all of you X-Files fan: Fox has released the first preview pics of the long awaited TV six-part series revival, along with a few teasing details about the first episode, titled "My Struggle," in which Annet Mahendru (The Americans) is Sveta, a woman "who believes she’s regularly abducted by aliens."

Another new character is Joel McHale, who will play Tad O’Malley, "the anchor of a popular conservative Internet news network who becomes an unlikely ally for Mulder" --Conservative, huh? Biting already at the hand who feeds you, Mr. Carter?

As for the old characters we all loved, Mitch Pileggi and William B. Davis are returning as Walter Skinner and The Smoking Man, respectively. Which is a bit odd considering how he's supposed to have been killed in the last episode of the old series; so either the shadowy villain managed to escape, he'll be shown on playback scenes, or Chris Carter will once again play around with the concept of spirits appearing to the characters.

IMO it would've been nice to see Nicholas Lea return as Alex Krycek, too. Maybe on the next season --if there is one?

To see the rest of the released images, head over to Entertainment Weekly.

The X-Files’ new season premieres in January 26th, 2016.

How close to finding alien life?

28-06-2015 om 22:32 geschreven door peter  

SETI's attempt to make contact with other signs of life

Human beings have always wondered if they're alone in the Universe.

In 1960, a young astronomer named Frank Drake decided to find out. He pointed an 85-foot antenna at two distant stars and started listening for signs of life. In that moment, a new discipline was born: the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, or SETI.

The epicenter of this search is the SETI Institute, an unassuming office building in Mountain View, California—the heart of Silicon Valley.

Seth Shostak, director of the Center for SETI Research at the institute, says the search for extraterrestrial intelligence is a lonely corner of science. "Worldwide, the total number of people doing this for a job, if you will, is maybe a dozen, maybe fifteen," he says. "Something like that. It's very small, terribly small."

When the SETI Institute was founded in 1984, its primary purpose was to look for intelligent life using the tools of radio astronomy. But since then, they've expanded into astrobiology, the study of all life in the Universe.

"So could there have been life on Mars, is there maybe life on Mars today, the moons of the outer solar system, how did life get started, things like that," explains Shostak.

Today, most of the researchers at the institute are astrobiologists, funded by outside grants. Oddly enough, only six people at the institute are looking for intelligence – the 'I' in SETI. Shostak leads that small team. He says they've come a long way since Frank Drake's experiment in 1960.

"Instead of having a single antenna listening to one spot on the radio dial at a time, now we can have multiple antennas listening to millions of spots on the dial at the same time."

They use the Allen Telescope Array, a sprawling field of 42 antennas at the Hat Creek Radio Observatory in Northern California. If the technology keeps improving, Shostak expects to make contact by about 2040.

What that contact will look like, we don't know. But Shostak is pretty sure: Hollywood has not prepared us for the real aliens.

"You know the ones on TV, they have big eyeballs and grey skin, no hair, never smile, don't tell any jokes, have no pets," Shostak says, if we want to know what aliens would really be like, he says, we should look at our own civilization.

In about a century, we've gone from inventing radio technology to nearly developing strong artificial intelligence—machines that can learn and think just like humans can. Considering that the Universe is about 13.8 billion years old, it is likely that any civilization we'd be hearing from is highly advanced; they've probably already gone through a similar chapter of history, a similar leap in technology.

"In other words, most of the intelligence in the Universe is probably artificial intelligence," says Shostak. "So if we pick up a signal, my guess is it's coming from a machine."

But so far, SETI hasn't found any intelligence, artificial or otherwise. Which begs the question, where is everybody?

This question was formalized—and immortalized—in 1950 by the physicist Enrico Fermi. As the story goes, he was working on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos National Laboratory when it occurred to him that if the Universe is as big and old as we think it is, and it's full of intelligent civilizations, somebody probably would've colonized the Milky Way by now.

"If the galaxy has a lot of societies, and if only a few of them are interested in colonization, there's been more than enough time for them to have done that, to have colonized the entire galaxy," says Shostak. "We should see aliens everywhere, and we don't seem to."

The Fermi Paradox has led some to conclude that life is probably rare in the Universe. But Shostak doesn't buy it. In recent years, NASA's Kepler space telescope has surveyed thousands of star systems in the Milky Way, and about 1 in 5 of those stars is orbited by an Earthlike planet.

"That means there's tens of billions of earthlike worlds in the galaxy," says Shostak. "It's a big number."

The odds seem pretty good that there's some life out there. Besides, if we're totally alone, that could mean only one thing..."This place is a miracle," says Shostak. "And, as a scientist, it's very difficult to believe in miracles, because normally if you're believing in miracles you're only fooling yourself. Most things aren't miracles."

"Our planet's not a miracle, but our planet may have been lucky," says Don Brownlee, a professor of astronomy at the University of Washington and the co-author of Rare Earth: Why Complex Life is Uncommon in the Universe.

Brownlee and his co-author, paleontologist Peter Ward, argue that microbial life may be common in the Universe. But complex life—the kind we have on Earth—is, well, rare.

"There are a number of nice things the Earth has that's promoted the evolution of higher organisms," he says.

Things like environmental stability. We have plate tectonics that recycle carbon, acting like a thermostat to keep Earth liveable. Our large moon may also have an influence on the Earth's axial tilt, helping to regulate the climate as well.

"Also Jupiter, interestingly enough, plays a role," says Brownlee. It's possible that Jupiter has steered asteroids in Earth's direction over time. And without those asteroids, we wouldn't have water. (The role of Jupiter in the Earth's asteroid traffic is complex and contested—see more here.)

The point is, these and other factors have made life on Earth possible. And Brownlee says our planet seems to be the exception, not the rule. "The Universe is actually quite, quite hostile to life. It's either too hot, or too cold, or not enough pressure, no water..."

Some say the rare earth hypothesis relies on a limited definition of "life" that it doesn't take into account alien worlds with life forms we can't even imagine.

"We can speculate about silicon-based life and so forth, life that might live in liquid helium or molten lead, but we have no physical basis for that," says Brownlee. He thinks our theories should be based on the data we have. Which is why he believes SETI is important—because it's looking for data where no one else is. "I don't think it should be a national priority, but you know it's certainly a good thing to do."

Back at the institute, Shostak says SETI is far from a national priority. The SETI Institute used to be funded by NASA. But in 1993, when the Clinton Administration's top priority was dealing with the deficit, the search for ET was an easy target. SETI's biggest opponent was Richard Bryan, a senator from Nevada. He characterized the search as "foolish and wasteful," and successfully urged lawmakers to cut the program's annual budget of approximately $10 million. With the federal money dried up, the SETI Institute was reincarnated as a non-profit research organization, relying largely on donations.

"The money that funds our SETI research is due to people who just send us a check because they think this is an interesting thing to do," says Shostak.

The biggest donors have always been their neighbors in Silicon Valley. The founders of Intel, Microsoft, and Hewlett-Packard have all given money. Most recently, Franklin Antonio, co-founder of the wireless communications company Qualcom, gave $3.5 million. Still, Shostak and the team struggle to bring in just 1 or 2 million dollars a year—the bare minimum they need.

Even on a shoestring budget, one researcher is planning way, way ahead.

Doug Vakoch is the Director of Interstellar Message Composition. He spends a lot of his time brainstorming on the issue with linguists, anthropologists, and other experts who typically aren't involved in the SETI conversation. The goal? To develop the perfect message to send to the extraterrestrials.

After years of just listening, Vakoch thinks it's time to amp up the search, and send a message of our own. This idea is called "Active SETI." And some scientists think it's a really bad idea. "No less a person than Stephen Hawking has said, 'Whatever you do, don't transmit to the extraterrestrials. They may come and strip-mine our planet.'"

Those who oppose Active SETI say we don't know what's out there, so we shouldn't advertise ourselves. (Some experts have even circulated a petition protesting the idea.) But to Vakoch, that fear doesn't make sense.

"Even if another civilization can travel between the stars," says Vakoch, "if they're hostile, if they want to come here and eat us or simply destroy us...sad news is, it's too late."

Earth has been leaking radio and television transmissions into space for decades. Vakoch admits that a targeted broadcast would be more powerful than our unintentional cosmic noise pollution, but the fact is, if anyone's out there listening, they've probably already heard us. So Vakoch believes we might as well send a proper greeting.

"When we think about how to communicate with another civilization, we can't count on them knowing English or Swahili or Russian, so we have to come up with something universal."

If another civilization is receiving our message at all, that means they can build a radio telescope, which means they're engineers; they understand math and physics.

"They probably know at least 2+2=4. So that's a starting point," he says. From there, Vakoch says we might be able to tell them about something as abstract as altruism, perhaps using the language of genetics.

"Or consider music," Vakoch says. "Music captures something quintessential about what it is to be human, but if you think about it, the structure of music is very much a mathematical and physical thing. So once we can communicate something about mathematical ratios and notions of time and frequency and duration, we can start describing our music."

It'll be a difficult task, expressing human experience in truly universal terms. But even if we never make contact, Vakoch says thinking about what we might say is a worthwhile pursuit.

"The reality is, there may be no extraterrestrials out there," Vakoch shrugs. "I hope to god there are, but if at the end of the day, the only thing we have accomplished is learning more about ourselves by trying to make contact, the whole project will still have been worth it."

For now, SETI won't be sending any messages into space. But as long as they have the money, they'll keep doing what they've always done: exploring the Universe through the radio dial, listening for signs of life.

Underground Pyramid at Tiahuanaco in Bolivia

The ancient fortress site of Tiahuanaco (Tiwanaku) in western Bolivia is still revealing secrets thousands of years after its peak as capital of an empire, and home to one of the most important civilizations prior to the Inca. 

Archaeologists from the Tiahuanaco Archeological Research Center have discovered an underground pyramid at the site using ground-penetrating radar.

According to Fox News Latino, the Bolivian government has announced excavations are set to begin this summer on the new find at the Kantatallita area of Tiahuanaco, 71 kilometers (44 miles) west of La Paz.

Using ground-penetrating radar, researchers also have reportedly found “underground anomalies” which they suspect might be monoliths, but further analysis will be carried out before reaching official conclusions.

Ludwing Cayo, director of the Tiahuanaco Archeological Research Center told EFE News Agency that Tiahuanaco will be undergoing further investigations over the next five years. This is welcome news to some, as the site and stone monuments may have suffered from exposure weathering 4,000 meters above sea level.

AcercandoNaciones reports that some of the ruins of Tiahunaco have become dilapidated, and some researchers suggest these might benefit from the protection of an indoor museum.

Tiahuanaco has been a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site since 2000.

It was the capital of an empire that extended into present-day Peru and Chile, flourishing from 300 to 1000 A.D., and is believed to be one of the most important cities of ancient America.  

Andean legends claim the area around Lake Titicaca was the cradle of the first humans on Earth. 

According to the myths, Lord Viracocha, the creator of all things, chose Tiahuanaco as the place of creation. It is unknown how old these ruins are, but some researchers suggest that they date to 14,000 years B.C.

Fox News Latino writes that at its height, the Tiwanaku realm covered 600,000 square kilometers (231,000 square miles), and “left a legacy of impressive stone monuments such as Kalasasaya, the semi-underground Templete, sculptures of prominent figures, the Gate of the Sun and ruins of palaces.”

Previous excavations at the site have revealed substantial portions of the Akapana Pyramid Mound.

Archaeology’s InteractiveDig writes that in the ancient past there is evidence that the established infrastructure was razed and rebuilt by the inhabitants, and the city was abandoned.

Researchers say there was a sudden shift in 700 A.D. Previous monuments were torn down, and the blocks were used to build the Akapana Pyramid. However, by the time the city was abandoned, the project had still not been completed, and laid unfinished.

Results from the excavations at Tiahuanaco and the research into the newly detected buried pyramid are expected to be announced later this year.

A New Waterfall Discovered on Mars

Hot on the wet heels of the recent discovery of blue pools on Mars comes images via Google Mars of what looks like a blue waterfall cascading over the edge of a Martian crater and down its sides. Before you say “it’s no Niagara,” it’s also not the first waterfall discovered on Mars, just the bluest.

Blue waterfall discovered on the surface of Mars

The waterfall was discovered by Argentine UFO researcher Marcelo Irazusta at the Google Mars coordinates: 7° 38’31.40″N 166°14’3.57″E. That location is the Zunil Crater, a 6.5 mile (10.4 km) wide crater named for a town in Guatemala. First spotted by the Viking 1 and Viking 2 Mars orbiters, the current images were taken by the Mars Global Surveyor’s Mars Orbiter Camera in 2000.

Sharp-eyed observer Irazusta is also know for finding a saucer-shaped object on the Martian surface at Google Mars coordinates: 79°52’20.16″N 166°55’34.16″W.

Saucer-shaped object on the surface of Mars

Images resembling waterfalls have been found on Mars in the past. This image from the Mars Global Surveyor was discovered in 2003 before the advent of Google Mars.

What appear to be waterfalls on Mars discovered in 2003

This image taken by the Mars Express in 2008 is of the Echus Chasma, a massive 100 km by 10 km area that appears to have been formed by either a waterfall or a lava flow or both, possibly forming the Kasei Valles.

Cliffs surrounding Echus Chasma on Mars that may have once been waterfalls

This 3-D enhanced image comes from a 2011 study which speculates that the water that may be flowing over these waterfall cliffs is a salty brine that warms quicker than pure water and could be thawing even in Mars’ freezing temperatures.

Enhanced image of a possible briny waterfall on Mars

What are we looking at in the image discovered by Marcelo Irazusta? Is it a true waterfall on Mars? A frozen one? Why is it blue? The “official” explanation for the recently-discovered blue pools is an optical illusion. Is it frozen brine? Something else?

Yet another anomaly from the surface for the Red Planet. Google Mars is a great tool. Keep looking!

John Kennedy assassiné "parce qu'il s'intéresse aux OVNIS":

D'innombrables fantaisies ont été écrites à propos de l'assassinat du président des Etats-Unis John Kennedy. Des thèses allant du fantasque au plus sérieux expliquent diversement les raisons de l'assassinat. Sont ainsi désignés comme instigateurs, la Mafia, Fidel Castro, le KGB, le complexe militaro-industriel Etats-Unien, la droite Etats-Unienne etc. Dans le monde fou fou fou de l'ufologie conspirationniste, inévitablement, existent des textes sur le web, des courriels sur listes de discussions, des interventions sur des forums, expliquant l'assassinat du Président Kennedy comme ayant un rapport avec la question des OVNIS. Le plus généralement, la thèse est que le président Kennedy allait faire des révélations au sujet des OVNIS, révélations de ce que les Etats-Unis se seraient emparés de débris d'un engin extraterrestre et de ses occupants à Roswell en 1947, par exemple, ou autres révélations non précisées.

Voici le genre de choses qui se racontent, et ce que cela vaut.

1. Une note de la NSA indique que Kennedy voulait partager avec Kroutchev des informations sur les OVNIS.

Cette affirmation est généralement accompagnée d'un lien vers le document censé la prouver.

Mais le document ne provient pas d'une source officielle mais d'un site propageant des documents dits "Majestic 12". Cette histoire de "Majestic 12", démarrant en 1984, était une grosse mystification à base de documents faux censés exposer un programme secret mis en place suivant une récupération d'OVNI accidenté et de ses occupants.

Le lien donné vers le document:

http://www.majesticdocuments.com/pdf/kennedy-nsam271.pdf

Comme on le voit, l'affirmation est simplement mensongère. Il n'y est absolument pas question de collaboration entre Kennedy et Kroutchev au sujet d'OVNIS. Il y est question de collaboration en matière d'exploration spatiale, de collaboration en matière d'imagerie de la Lune.

Une interview de Sergeï Kroutchev, le fils de Nikita Kroutchev, confirmerait cette collaboration sur les OVNIS et Kennedy aurait donc été assassiné parce que cela ne "convenait pas à tout le monde."

Le lien vers cette interview est donné comme:

http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-2383-Honolulu-Exopolitics-Examiner~y2009m6d9-Kennedy-assassination-linked-to-UFOs-and-CIA

Voilà le propos attribué au fils de Kroutchev:

"I walked with him, sometime in late October or November, and he told me about all these things. He told me that we have to think about this and maybe accept this idea. I asked why they would know everything, our secrets? He said it's not important. The Americans can design everything they want. It is a very well developed country, but we will have to save money. It's very expensive…. He thought also of the political achievement of all these things, that then they would begin to trust each other much more. After the Cuban missile crisis, his trust with President Kennedy was raised very high. He thought that it's possible to deal with this President, he didn't think that they could be friends, but he really wanted to avoid the war, so through this co-operation they could sojourn their thoughts on these achievements."

Soit:

"J'ai marché avec lui, autrefois en octobre ou novembre, et il m'a parlé de toutes ces choses. Il m'a dit que nous devons penser à cela et peut-être accepter cette idée. J'ai demandé pourquoi ils sauraient tout, nos secrets? Il a dit que ce n'est pas important. Les Américains peuvent concevoir tout qu'ils veulent. C'est un pays très bien développé, mais nous devons économiser l'argent. C'est très cher... Il a pensé également à l'accomplissement politique de toutes ces choses, qu'alors ils commenceraient à se faire davantage confiance. Après la crise cubaine des missiles, sa confiance dans le Président Kennedy est devenue très haute. Il a pensé qu'il est possible d'avoir affaire avec ce président, il ne pensait pas qu'ils pourraient être amis, mais il a vraiment voulu éviter la guerre, ainsi par cette coopération ils pourraient partager leurs idées sur ces réalisations."

Cette fois encore, comme on le voit, il n'est absolument pas question d'OVNIS!

Kroutchev parlait simplement de la coopération en matière d'exploration spatiale que Kennedy lui avait proposée...

2. Une note privée indique que "l'Agence" s'inquiétait de demandes répétées de Kennedy pour obtenir des informations sur les OVNIS.

Il est affirmé qu'une note sauvée de la destruction d'archives privées de James Jesus Angleton, qui serait un grand nom du renseignement, mêlé de près aux OVNIS et à "Majestic 12" montrerait que "l'Agence" (laquelle? la CIA) s'inquiétait de ce que Kennedy demande de façon répétée à avoir accès aux informations sur les OVNIS, et que le Directeur de la CIA Allen Dulles voulait l'empêcher. Il y aurait dans le document une directive ordonnant de tuer tout politicien qui s'opposerait aux projets du "Majestic 12".

Il est indiqué que cela se trouve ici:

http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-2383-Honolulu-Exopolitics-Examiner~y2009m6d12-CIA-Director-issued-secret-directive-preventing-President-Kennedy-access-to-UFO-files

Outre que la page en question n'est pas le document allégué mais un article de Michael Salla (déjà X fois discrédité, soutien à "Eric Julien" et autres inventeurs d'histoires, affaire des prétendues réunions secrètes sur les OVNI à l'ONU etc. etc.), parus sur un site faisant de la publicité à la "Scientologie", outre que le lien n'est pas le bon car ceci apparaît sur une suite de l'article de Salla, tout ce que l'on trouve là est un paragraphe tapé par Salla disant:

"Draft - Directive Regarding Project Environment - When conditions become non-conducive for growth in our environment and Washington cannot be influenced any further, the weather is lacking any precipitation... it should be wet."

Soit:

"Brouillon - Directive Concernant l'Environnement de Programme - Quand les conditions deviennent défavorables pour la croissance de notre environnement et Washington ne peut pas être influencé davantage, la météo ne connaît pas de pluie... il devrait faire humide."

Vous ne rêvez pas, c'est cela qui est interprété comme un ordre d'assassiner tout politicien qui voudrait mettre le nez dans des affaires d'OVNIS!

Quant au "document", il y a bien un lien vers un "http://www.majesticdocuments.com/pdf/kennedy_ciadirector.pdf", mais comme par hasard, je n'arrive pas à l'ouvrir.

Et bien évidemment, tout cela provient de nouveau non pas d'archives officielles, mais d'un site web publient moult documents "Majestic 12", lesquels ont été découverts faux il y a belle lurette, et sont douteux au mieux - bien évidemment le site "reçoit" régulièrement de "nouveaux" documents "Majestic 12". Seul quelques lunatiques Etats-Uniens comme Michael Salla prennent encore ces "documents" comme authentiques.

Dans un mémo du 12 novembre 1963 adressé au Directeur de la CIA, Kennedy demande une révision de la classification des "high threat cases" (les cas les plus menaçants). A côté de la signature mécanographiée, on peut lire l'ajout manuscrit suivant: "Response from Colby: Angleton has MJ directive 11/20/63" et cela signifie qu'Angleton doit répondre à Kennedy selon les directives du Majectic 12 c'est à dire en assassinant Kennedy.

Le lien est donné comme:

http://www.majesticdocuments.com/pdf/kennedy_cia.pdf

Hélas, si cette fois le lien fonctionne, on voit tout de suite qu'il s'agit d'un memo concernant la sécurité des futurs programmes d'exploration de la lune et non des OVNIS.

Certes le mot "UFO" y apparaît, comme un poisson dans la soupe, totalement et curieusement hors sujet, mais il ne faut pas être grand clerc pour deviner qu'il a pu être surajouté à la place de "CIA"!

Quant au mot MJ-12 pour "Majestic 12", il n'y figure même pas, on n'y trouve que "MJ"!

Ce n'est pas la première fois que des documents ne comportant PAS "MJ-12" ou "Majestic 12" sont ainsi récupérés par le conspirationnisme. Un bel exemple est à:

http://www.presidentialufo.com/kennedy&1.htm

On y trouve cette image de très mauvaise résolution et on affirme y lire "MJ 12", alors que de toute évidence ce n'est pas MJ 12":

3. Une autre référence montre c'est vraisemblablement Angleton, en tant que chef du contre-espionnage de la CIA, qui a introduit Oswald dans le scenario de l'assassinat "comme un arbre qui cacherait la forêt".

Cette autre référence est une même référence déjà donné. C'est encore simplement un article de Michael Salla:

http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-2383-Honolulu-Exopolitics-Examiner~y2009m6d15-President-Kennedys-UFO-involvement-led-to-assassination-order

Lequel indique que le document en question est à:

http://knowability.googlepages.com/OswaldCIA.jpg

Encore une fois, nous avons là un simple "jpg" comme n'importe quel conspirationniste faussaire peut en produire - comme cela a été le cas avec les prétendus "documents Majestic 12" - et non pas un document de source officielle, mais encore, il n'y est absolument pas question d'OVNI, pas question d'assassiner Kennedy non plus, et encore moins d'assassiner Kennedy parce qu'il aurait voulu des informations sur les OVNIS.

Il s'agit d'un rapport de la CIA au sujet de l'assassinat de Kennedy - qui a alors déjà eu lieu - et dans laquelle la CIA informe que le machiavélique directeur du FBI, Hoover, souhaite que l'on garde secret que Lee Harvey Oswald, assassin désigné de Kennedy, ait été employé par les services secrets Etats-Uniens, entraîné par la CIA, pour des missions d'espionnage à l'encontre de l'Union Soviétique.

Que Lee Harvey Oswald n'ait pas été un personnage ordinaire mais ait eu des activités d'espionnage et même d'agent double est hors de doute et n'est depuis longtemps plus qu'un secret de polichinelle. Mais ce qui est clair est que ce papier n'a strictement rien à voir avec les OVNIS, rien d'une preuve que Kennedy ait été assassiné pour des affaires d'OVNIS!

Et donc, ces "éléments" prétendant justifier la thèse que Kennedy a été assassiné pour des questions d'OVNIS sont totalement douteux, parfois de purs détournements, parfois de probables falsifications.

Je ne peux pas refaire ici toute l'histoire du canular qu'à été "les documents Majestic 12", un canular parmi bien d'autres comme le "projet Serpo" ou "les lettres Ummites". Je préfère utiliser mon temps à autre chose qu'à l'histoire déjà bien assez dite par des enquêteurs au fait comme Kevin Randle de ce qui n'est qu'une fraude qui ne passionne plus que certains milieux ufologiques crédules. Brièvement, l'affaire commence quand Bill Moore diffuse des "documents" venant d'une source inconnue. Le plus "fort" de ces documents aurait prouvé que les Etats-Unis ont récupéré quatre cadavres d'extraterrestres. Un autre prétendait que Jésus-Christ était un extraterrestre.

Les documents ont d'abord été démontré être des faux par l'analyse de leur aspect et de leur chronologie. On a ainsi trouvé que certains étaient tapés sur un modèle de machine à écrire qui n'existait pas encore à leur date prétendue de création. Le plus fort de ces documents a été montré être un faux lorsque Phillip Klass a découvert que la signature du Président au bas du document était exactement la même que sur un autre document, authentique celui-là, ce qui démontre une simple copie de signature car personne ne trace jamais deux signatures exactement identiques.

Enfin, le journaliste et ufologue Bob Pratt a révélé une conversation qu'il avait eu avec Bill Moore: avant de fournir ces documents "MJ-12", celui-ci lui avait raconté à Bob Pratt ses plans pour un livre de fiction qu'il envisageait d'écrire, mêlant les présidents Truman et Eisenhower à deux affaire de "crashes" d'OVNI. Pratt avait ainsi compris qui avait ensuite fabriqué les faux documents "MJ-12".

SpaceX Third Attempt At Reusable Falcon 9 Explodes In Flight - June 28, 2015

28-06-2015 om 21:44 geschreven door peter  

Answer to the article in the March 2015 issue of Astronomy Magazine entitled “Let’s cut the UFO crap”

D. J. Eicher wrote an article in the March 2015 issue of Astronomy Magazine entitled “Let’s cut the UFO crap”.  The title and footnote of this article are offensive and inaccurate.  Answering Mr. Eicher’s letter is necessary, and perhaps will contribute to a constructive debate.

Similar to scientists and skeptics who dismiss and disparage the UFO topic, Mr. Eicher appears to be unaware of how complex and extensive the UFO phenomenon is, and seems to confuse the issue of extra-terrestrial intelligence with the issue of UFOs.  Considering Mr. Eicher’s opinion, please also consider this quote from Stanford University Astrophysicist Emeritus Professor Dr. Peter Sturrock’s research: “One also finds that opinions (of members of the AAS – astronomer scientists) correlate strongly with time spent reading about the subject. The fraction of respondents who think that the subject certainly or probably deserves scientific study rises from 29%, among those who have spent less than one hour, to 68% among those who have spent more than 365 hours in such reading.” Perhaps Mr. Eicher should find himself among those who spend more time studying the relevant material before making sweeping statements as in his March 2015 column.

For example, Mr. Eicher is inaccurate when he writes: “…the claims of a businessman who said he spotted nine shiny ”flying saucers” moving at high velocities”. In fact, the witness told the reporters that he had observed during a trip in his own plane a chain of nine peculiar looking aircraft, flying in formation in two lines, and moving “like a saucer would do if you skipped it across the water”.  It was the reporters who in their Associated Press dispatch erroneously transformed the description of the movement of the objects into a description of their shape, “saucer-like”.

Science does not require lock-step compliance with popular opinion. There isn’t anything in the principles of scientific endeavor that describes what one may or may not study.  Mr. Eicher indicated “People see things in the sky they often don’t understand. That’s the conclusion.” For most scientists, a conclusion that states “something happened and I do not understand it” is hardly the point at which scientific inquiry should end. The nature of science is to study what we do not understand.

Despite the cosmic distance scale, it is not unscientific to consider the hypothesis that aliens have visited the planet versus the null hypothesis which states that they have not. The possibility of visitors operating spaceships in the form of UFOs is just one of several hypotheses to explain the UFO phenomenon.

There are well-documented observations made by many different trained, experienced observers that do warrant further study which, unfortunately, he has recommended against. The scientific problem with these reports is they often are not corroborated by instrument readings, and they cannot be replicated. These are problems to address, and are quite different from the problem that is stated in Mr. Eicher’s article.

Mr. Eicher’s article is puzzling, as its premises are not logically connected to the conclusion that the universe is big, Earth is special, and we should take care of it and our fellow human beings. It is not clear what these insights have to do with scientific study to understand aerial anomalies. Certainly psychologists could argue from sound evidence that if you really want to take care of other human beings, the first and most important step is to not exaggerate differences, deride open-minded curiosity, and demonize anyone who chooses to study that which you choose to discredit. Polemical arguments like the statement in the caption that ends the letter, and the article’s offensive title, are examples of what not to do. There are good scientific reasons to be skeptical about anomalous events in the sky, and even more reason to doubt alien visitation. However, those rational arguments do not justify demeaning and dismissing those who are inclined to study the possibility of alien visitation.

Unknown phenomena happening in the sky above is a call to scientific inquiry. That’s how we learn. Serious ufologists recognize the importance of monitoring unidentified anomalous phenomena in a rigorous and deterministic way.  This is the reason new projects for networks of automatic stations for UFO monitoring are currently being defined. Identifying strategic sites and deploying appropriate instruments are crucial activities to enable mainstream scientists to acquire relevant data. Is it unscientific to collect data? We will keep Mr. Eicher informed about such coming endeavours.

Meteor or Bad Omen Over Huntington?

(Before It's News)

I spend a lot of time at the Cabell County library going through old newspapers.  Sometimes I'm looking for information on cases we're working on and sometimes I'm looking for information for my blog. Sometimes, I just stumble upon some really weird and awesome things!  That's what happened to me last week, when I was doing some personal research on a family member who was involved in a murder.

The following article has been transcribed exactly how it appeared (weird spelling, grammar and all) in the January 13, 1914 edition of the Huntington Herald Dispatch.  According to other articles from around the same time period, near this date a meteor was spotted by many over this area of the country.  However, this was the only odd tale apparently associated with an otherwise normal event.  Several boys who witnessed the meteor near the old C&O Hospital on Huntington's 6th avenue reported it did some pretty strange things!  As an added bonus, this article goes on to discuss a haunted house that was located on 20th Street at the time!  Note:  If you enjoy this story, please check out The East End Pillow Miracle, another newspaper article I found about a bad omen discussed in a local Huntington newspaper.

BOYS SAY THEY SAW BRILLIANT METEOR DESCEND FROM HEAVEN WRITE NAME IN LETTERS OF FIRE, THEN RISE TO SKIES IN FORM OF WOMAN'S HEAD

Strange Story of Youngsters Living Near Chesapeake & Ohio Hospital Startles Their Parents—'Twas But Ordinary Shooting Star, Many Declare—Dark Tale of Haunted House in Same Vicinity Heard.

By R.S. Thornburgh

What many persons in the vicinity of the Chesapeake & Ohio hospital on upper Sixth avenue declared to have been a celestial portent of grave mien, but which others say was nothing more nor less than a huge brilliant meteor that swept the heavens shortly after dusk last night, was seen by several small boys while skating on a pond near the hospital who afterwards told a tale which is as wonderful and wierd as any of the dark mystery stories painted in classical literature.

The shadows had become long and disappeared in the gathering gloom as the youngsters played about an old field close to the hospital where there is a small sheet of ice.  About as they were ready to start home one suddenly cried out to the others to behold a great falling star which was zizzagging its way down the heavens.  One of them, according to his mother, Mrs. J.W. Terry of Nineteenth street and Buffington avenue, who afterwards related the story to a reporter, ran terrified to his home while the others waited in breathless fear to see what would happen.

This is the story they told to their parents:

The star became brighter and brighter, leaving in its path a tail of fire. Suddenly pausing over a lonely cottage in the vicinity, it spread into a great light.

As it hung like a fiery apparition over the home it silently burst into a flame of illumination.

So stunned by fear that they could scarcely move the boys saw written in letters of fire a strange name over the house.  They  said it was:

“Myrs. Vyrant.”

As they watched the letters faded and in their stead was the face of a woman, beautiful and pale.  The blazing eyes of fire seemed turned upon them, they told their parents, as slowly the spirit-like form that had come down from the stars rose over the house and finally disappeared in the eastern heavens.

The youngsters, who sought out separately by persons in the neighborhood of the hospital told exactly the same story, are Charles and James Nash, the children of Mr. and Mrs. John Nash of Sixth avenue; Orben Davis, the son of Mrs. N.A. Davis, a nurse, of Sixth avenue, and Llewellyn Terry, the son of the Rev. and Mrs. J.W. Terry.  The Rev. Mr. Terry is a traveling evangelist, now in the south.  Orville Perry, a small colored boy, also saw the vision, according to his story.

The neighborhood on upper Sixth avenue was greatly excited last night by the story of the boys and credence was given to it by many.  The boys were closely questioned by many persons, who expressed fear that the mysterious thing that blazed in the heavens was an omen of ill tidings, that death or deep suffering was to follow to someone.  They said that it could not have been sent for nothing.

Strange tales were told there last night of a murder committed near where the wonderful sight was seen, in days long ago when the city was still young, and of a treasure buried by the murderer.

Hinging onto the story it was related that on Twentieth street, some distance away is a haunted house.  Several persons have moved into the place and afterwards left because of wierd sounds that startle them from their sleep in the early hours of the morning. 

These sounds, the tale goes, take the form of soft footsteps on the stairway and creakings of doors that never moved.  None has explained these nocturnal disturbances nor why the sights that would make one's blood run cold have been there, said one woman last night, to whom the ghostly heavenly visitor that frightened the small boys brought to mind the haunted house.

It is the common talk in the vicinity that there is a treasure buried somewhere near this house and that back of this hord lies deep plot of intrigue as dark as any of the narrative of the operations of Kidd, the pirate, in the early days.

Writers of old times in their eastern mystery stories of strange happenings on wide deserts told of beings descended from the skies, of devils and genii risen from the depths of the region of fire, yet none dared conceive a more puzzling “yarn” than that told by the youngsters of what they thought they saw!  All insisted that they were telling the truth and were apparently much frightened by what they could not understand.

Many persons in the city saw a flaming meteor just after dark last night.  It was described as one of the most brilliant that has ever been witnessed in this part of the Ohio valley, forming a complete arc over the heavens before it finally disappeared in the western horizon.

Meteors, considered by the ancients as forerunners of disaster, famine or war, and almost as greatly feared as were comets, ever have had a romantic supernatural air about them, that leads to many a delightful tale.

However, at this season meteors are not unusual, astronomy tells us.  This heavenly body is nothing more than a large shooting star which has become diverted from its course in the space beyond our atmosphere and is hurled through the air.  The contact of the body with the air, because of its terrific speed causes the meteor to catch fire, therefore being visible to the eye.  Most meteors and shooting stars burn themselves out before striking the earth, but occasionally one reads of one of these bodies reaching the ground with such force as to bury itself in the soil or even to damage property, in case of striking a building.  Examination of such fallen stars by scientists have shown them composed of earth and various metals.

There are certain times of the year when falling stars are quite frequent, one of these periods being during the last of this month.  At these times one may notice a large number of shooting stars if the nights are clear.

Het alternatieve scheppingsverhaal van de mensheid en de occulte wortels van het nazi-rijk

Hoog in de Himalaya leven volgens een oude Aziatische legende de ware vorsten van deze wereld. In het oud-Indische sanskriet worden zij de mahatma’s genoemd, de ‘grote zielen’. Ze zijn ontsnapt aan het samsara, het eeuwig draaiende wiel van dood en wedergeboorte. Ze zijn voorbij de limieten die de materie aan gewone stervelingen stelt.

Ze onderhouden volgens de legende interplanetaire contacten met de ruimtewezens die eens hun sporen nalieten op de aarde en aldus de keten van de mensheid in gang zetten, buiten de materie om, langs ‘astrale’ weg, als het ware opgelost in een wolk van losstaande atomen, regeren zij als de oude Griekse goden over de elementen en de mensheid.

Blavatsky

Lang bleef de kennis die in Tibet geconcentreerd was, verborgen voor de buitenwereld. Pas in het midden van de 19e eeuw slaagde een westerling erin contact te leggen met twee van deze meesters. Het was de Russische theosofe Helena Anna Petrovna Blavatsky, die een geheel nieuwe zwaai zou moeten geven aan de geschiedenis van de mensheid.

Blavatsky, de oermoeder van de new age, werd in 1831 geboren in de stad Jekaterinoslav (Dnjepropetrovsk). Haar vader was de zoon van een prinses uit het Duitse groothertogdom Mecklenburg en van moederskant ging haar stamboom terug tot groothertog Roerik, de eerste heerser van Rusland.

Haar uitgangspunt was dat alle oude religies ieder op hun eigen manier dezelfde occulte en mystieke boodschappen doorgaven en dat er een goddelijk veld bestond dat via muziek, wijn, cannabis, dans of meditatie door mensen kon worden bereikt.

Dwars door alle religies heen regeerde een geheim verbond over de materie, bestaande uit onder meer de eerste kruisridders en mystiek-christelijke genootschappen als de Rozenkruisers en de vrijmetselaars. De moderne wetenschap was blind voor deze andere bestaansdimensies, waarvan ieder mens toch iets bevroedde.

Blavatsky stelde dat er een nieuwe tijd in aantocht was, het Aquariustijdperk, waarin alle onderlinge menselijke twisten zouden verdwijnen, evenals de dwingelandij van kerk en staat die zo kenmerkend was voor het Vissentijdperk waarin zij leefde. Ze zou als klein meisje zijn ‘bezocht’ door een soort geest, die in feite een heilige man uit de Himalaya was en die zij later ook in levenden lijve zou ontmoeten.

Zeven wortelrassen

In 1888 publiceerde Blavatsky een alternatief scheppingsverhaal van de mensheid. Dat bestond volgens haar uit zeven ‘wortelrassen’, gebonden aan even veel continenten. Het eerste ras traceerde ze miljoenen jaren terug op de Noordpool. Op die ijskorst vertoefden wezens zonder fysiek lichaam, geheel ‘etherisch’. Dit eerste wortelras kon sterven noch gewond raken.

Het tweede wortelras ontstond iets zuidelijker, op een continent dat zich zou hebben uitgestrekt van Groenland tot Kamtsjatka. Deze ‘hyperboreeërs’ waren de eerste pogingen van de materiële natuur om menselijke lichamen te scheppen.

Lemuria was de naam van het derde continent in de geschiedenis van de mensheid volgens Blavatsky. Het bestond zo’n 18 miljoen jaar geleden en reikte van de Indische Oceaan tot Australië. Dit was het eerste wortelras met echt menselijke trekken.

Nadat ook Lemuria was vergaan, vestigden de overlevenden zich in Atlantis. Dit was een half verzonken continent in de Atlantishe Oceaan, niet te verwarren met het verzonken rijk waar Plato vier eeuwen voor Christus over sprak. Dit was begiftigd met telepathische krachten, samengebald in een zogeheten ‘derde oog’. Hier ontstond voor het eerst een scheuring tussen goed en slecht, tussen rechtvaardigen en onrechtvaardigen.

Atlantis ging zo’n 850.000 jaar geleden aan aardbevingen en vloedgolven ten onder, waarna de lichtdragende tak van de stam zich via Scandinavië en Centraal Europa naar Azië begaf, met als middelpunt de toen nog uiterst vruchtbare Gobi-vlakte.

Zo ontstond het vijfde wortelras, dat van de Ariërs, waarmee Blavatsky was gearriveerd bij de huidige tijd. Nog twee wortelrassen zullen volgen eer de menselijke evolutie tot een harmonieus eindpunt zal komen.

Agartha en Shambhala

Tibet, India en Perzië waren volgens de theosofische leer de bakermat van het Arische ras, met als centra twee verborgen plekken in de Himalaya, te weten Agartha en Shambhala. Deze locaties werden aangeduid als aan elkaar tegengestelde bronnen van enorm telepathisch vermogen, direct gelieerd aan mysterieuze buitenaardse intelligenties.

Het symbool van Agartha was het rechtsdraaiende hakenkruis, in het sanskriet swastika, waarvan de vier armen naar links wijzen zodat het kruis denkbeeldig meedraait met de rotatie van de aarde. Shambhala had als symbool het linksdraaiende hakenkruis, waarvan de armen naar rechts wijzen en dus tegen de rotatie van de planeten indraait.

Het hakenkruis werd onder regie van tsarina Alexandra ingevoerd aan het hof van de laatste Russische tsaar Nicolaas II. Het oudste hakenkruis zou in Transsylvanië zijn gevonden en zou dateren uit het stenen tijdperk. Over de hele wereld treft men het in grotten of gekerfd in stenen aan. Het is gevonden in IJsland, Scandinavië en zelfs op de Waddeneilanden. In de vierde eeuw voor Christus dook het teken op in India, Perzië en Tibet en 800 jaar later verscheen het ook in China en Japan.

Thule-Gesellschaft

Ook Adolf Hitler was erg geïnteresseerd in het symbool en het occulte in het algemeen. De op 20 april 1889 in Braunau am Inn geboren zoon van douanier Alois Schicklgruber en diens nicht Klara Poelzl stamde uit een streek die al van oudsher was vergeven van mediums, zieners en andere mystici.

In The Spear of Destiny laat de Britse historicus Trevor Ravenscroft de Weense filosoof Walter Stein aan het woord, die beweerde de occulte carrière van Adolf Hitler vanaf het begin te hebben gevolgd. Stein was een gerenommeerd kenner van de esoterische traditie, die net voor de oorlog naar Engeland was gevlucht. Tijdens de oorlog was hij persoonlijk adviseur van Winston Churchill.

Volgens Stein zou Hitler zijn ingewijd in een occulte orde, direct gelieerd aan het besloten netwerk van de beruchte Russische magiër Gurdjieff, die zich nadrukkelijk liet voorstaan op buitenaardse contacten. Met dit inwijdingsproces waren zelfs experimenten met psychedelisch werkende paddenstoelen en andere drugs gemoeid, aldus ex-militair Ravenscroft.

Winston Churchill verbood dat deze materie aan de orde zou komen tijdens de Processen van Neurenberg tegen de oorlogsmisdadigers. Het publiek zou er nog niet klaar voor zijn.

Onder leiding van de Beierse grootmeester van de Orde der Germanen baron Rudolf von Sebotendorff werd het Thule-Gesellschaft opgericht. Thule, vernoemd naar de Germaanse naam voor het Atlantis van Blavatsky, tooide zich met een Shambhala-hakenkruis.

Eind 1918 telde het Thule-gezelschap 1500 leden, onder wie gezaghebbende aristocraten als prins Gustav Franz Maria von Thurn und Taxis. Verwant aan de Thule-ideeën was het streven van het eveneens in Berlijn gevestigde Genootschap van de Vril. Volgens dit genootschap was de controle over de geheime energie van de vril, een in de allerkleinste deeltjes van de materie verborgen superkracht, voorbehouden aan de Ariërs.

Een belangrijk lid van Thule en van het Vril-genootschap was de Beierse generaal Karl Haushofer, die lange tijd in Indië en het Verre Oosten was verbleven. Haushofer, de bedenker van de term Lebensraum, viel op door zijn mediamieke gaven: schijnbaar moeiteloos voorspelde hij het tijdstip van de inslag van granaten, de plaats van vijandelijke aanvallen en het uitbreken van stormen.

Haushofer, de jonge architect Rudolf Hess, Adolf Hitler en Dietriech Eckhart behoorden tot de zeven moderne Teutoonse ridders die in 1919 de NSDAP oprichtten, met het Shambhala-hakenkruis in de vlag.

De ontsnapping van Hitler

De Thule-doctrines werden, naarmate Hitlers machtsbasis verstevigde, steeds meer opgenomen in de nieuwe orde, inclusief de Arisch-wetenschappelijke doctrines als de theorie van de holle aarde van Hans Hörbiger. Het wetenschappelijke SS-bureau Ahnenerbe, voor onderzoek naar de nalatenschap der voorvaderen, werd het occulte studiecentrum van de nazi’s.

Het bureau beschikte over een groter budget dan het Amerikaanse team dat de atoombom ontwikkelde en had infiltranten in alle mogelijke vertakkingen van de internationale occulte en esoterische gezelschappen.

Na de laatste onthullingen uit de KGB-kokers over Operatie Mythos, het onderzoek dat Stalin liet uitvoeren naar Hitlers einde, is lang niet iedereen er meer van overtuigd dat de Führer op 30 april 1945 zelfmoord heeft gepleegd.

Honderd procent uitsluitsel dat het inderdaad de overblijfselen van Hitler waren die in de nacht van 4 op 5 april 1970 door enkele KGB-officieren in Magdenburg werd opgegraven, verbrand en in de wind verstrooid, zal er vrijwel nooit komen.

Wijlen Miguel Serrano, oud-ambassadeur van Chili in India, Joegoslavië en Oostenrijk en lid van tal van aan de VN-gelieerde organisaties, publiceerde in 1984 een 600 pagina’s tellende studie genaamd ‘Adolf Hitler, el Ultimo A vatara’. Volgens Serrano ontsnapte Hitler in 1945 in een vliegende schotel van Duitse makelij. Vanuit een ondergrondse centrale aan de Zuidpool zou hij verder hebben gewerkt aan zijn esoterische plannen.

De diplomaat verdedigde de stelling dat Hitler in het diepste van de aarde plannen maakte om met behulp van hoogontwikkelde nazi-UFO’s het Derde Rijk te voltooien. Serrano nam deel aan een wetenschappelijke missie van de Chileense regering naar Antarctica, om daar op zoek te gaan naar UFO-bases.

Twee UFO's boven Piramide van de Zon

Op zich is het natuurlijk niet zo vreemd dat buitenaardsen belangstelling tonen voor oude monumenten uit onze geschiedenis.

Dan denken wij aan de piramides in Egypte of de oude tempels in Zuid Amerika.


Enkele maanden geleden was er een UFO-waarneming boven de Piramide van de Zon in Mexico waar toen nogal wat discussie over ontstond.

Zo schreven wij in een update:

Nadat we het originele artikel hieronder hadden geplaatst, kregen wij van een aantal lezers de opmerking dat de door professor Ana Luisa Cid gemaakte opname van een UFO bij de Mexicaanse piramide in Teotihuacan niet echt zou zijn.

Naar aanleiding van het feit dat wanneer je de UFO op de afbeelding vergroot, het lijkt alsof deze er later in geplakt zou zijn.

Echter, mevrouw Cid blijft vasthouden aan het verhaal dat deze UFO wel degelijk echt is en heeft nu een video gepubliceerd (helaas in het Spaans) waarin ze verder op dit verhaal in gaat en ook spreekt met een tweetal werknemers die zo ongeveer iedere dag op die plek vertoeven:

Nu zijn er een aantal toeristen die bij diezelfde Piramide van de Zon ook een opname hebben gemaakt van een UFO.

Deze waarneming werd op 25 juni 2015 ingediend bij MUFON en de bovenstaande foto werd volgens de getuige op 4 mei 2015 genomen.

Zij vertelt verder dat haar vriendin tien seconden later eveneens een foto nam waarop niets te zien was.

Wanneer we wat verder inzoomen dan blijkt er niet één, maar twee UFO’s zichtbaar te zijn.

Bovenstaande verhaal wil natuurlijk niet zeggen dat nu ineens de opname van professor  Anna Luisa Cid gegarandeerd echt zou zijn, maar het maakt het iets aannemelijker nu ongeveer een maand later door andere mensen een aantal vergelijkbare UFO’s worden gefotografeerd.

The Comeback of Unimpeachable UFO Witness 35 Years After

Colonel Charles Halt, the famous UFO saga comes back to Suffolk to tell the story. A former US air force commander, depicted as an “unimpeachable” witness recognized worldwide as the ‘Rendlesham UFO incident’, comes back to Suffolk 35 years after. Halt’s first sighting was in the early hours of December 26, in which Halt is not involved. In the first hours of December 28, 1980, second sighting of the Rendlesham Forest UFO was reported. He will be flying back to Suffolk next back to address the local public with regards to its happenings.

While serving as a Deputy Commander, he prepared a memorandum to the Ministry of Defense telling “unexplained lights”. He also recorded the Halt Tape, which is a documented investigation in the forest which Halt saw strange lights during that time, like those witnessed by John Burroughs and Jim Penniston two nights earlier. He signed an affidavit to claim his encounter as an extraterrestrial matter and had been covered up by the government in 2010. At Woodbridge Community Hall on July 11, a conference has been organized by Dawn Holloway and John Hanson, authors of UFO books entitled Haunted Skies.

According to Mr Hanson, the Rendlesham incident is the most controversial in history. In fact, all the people involved have created their versions. Being an unimpeachable UFO witness, he never came back to speak locally. Fortunately, the comeback was confirmed, and it is great news for everyone who want to know more about the incident. Nick Pope said that he met Colonel Halt many times. He described Colonel as a man of integrity and is an unimpeachable witness. The incident in Rendlesham Forest is the world’s most compelling sightings. The conference will be preceded from 5pm-7pm by a book fair, including a ‘meet and greet’ with Mrs Butler, Mr Hanson and David Bryant.

June 26, 2015 - Kanpur is no California, but a boy here claims to have snapped photos of a UFO while trying to capture some clouds in his smartphone.

The incident reportedly happened at Shyamnagar locality on Wednesday. Santosh Gupta now wants scientists to examine the photos clicked by his son Abhijit on his smartphone.

The photos are of a stereotypical flying saucer, the first thing that comes to anyone’s mind when you say UFO. There are some flashy red lights too for good measure. Yes, smartphones these days have apps that lets even kids add all kinds of objects to images, flying or otherwise. But then who has time for skepticism when you can let a story really fly like a kite.



Whether it is a real UFO will be debated till the aliens themselves make a disclosure, but let us tell you that California gets the most other-worldly traffic with 11,202 recorded sightings so far.

In fact, the United States gets so many sightings of unidentified (or unnecessarily) flying objects that there is even a national register of such events with the National UFO reporting Centre. For the record, there have been 338 reports Just in June 2015.

You can report your UFO sightings in our comments section below. Let your imagination fly…

Mystery of the Tayos Cave - Legendary Metal Library Found in Ecuador

In what maybe one of the biggest discoveries ever, a team of explorers is claiming that they have found the legendary golden library and other mysterious treasures in the Tayos Cave system in Ecuador.
The team announced that they accidentally found some hidden tunnels that were obviously dug out artificially sometime in the ancient past while inside one of the main chambers.  The team was able to follow one of these tunnels for approximately ½ mile and came upon a large room containing the golden library and various other treasures.

Below is a list of what the explorers claim to have found in this chamber:

•     1. A library with thousands of metal books.  The team was unable to specify what metal the books were made of but the look was similar to silver.  Each page had symbols and strange writing on them.
•     2.  Individual plates with writing on them and strange symbols that looked to bego made of ld.
•   3. At least several hundred statues of insects, animals and humans spread throughout the large chamber.
•    4.  Lots of metal bars thought to be both gold and/or silver.  Also found were various children’s toys and jewelry items made from gold or silver.
•    5. One large sarcophagus containing one human skeleton decorated with jewels and golden jewelry.
•    6. The team also found at least three doors that could be more tombs but were sealed completely shut.

The team did claim to have samples of at least one of the metal books, one golden plate and several small statues that they will be submitting to professional testing so hopefully this will give us answers shortly.

2nd Director Of Lockheed Skunkwork’s Shocking Comments About UFO Technology

It’s quite remarkable how many verified statements we have regarding UFOs (unidentified flying objects) and extraterrestrials from people who have held the highest positions possible within the government, military, academia, politics and more. To be honest, it’s overwhelming, and when you put all of those statements together with all of the previously classified documentation that has been released over the past few years, it paints a startling picture. Anybody who has done even a fair amount of research, and adheres to the philosophy of “condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance,” would not be able to deny this, and I have yet to come across someone who has done the research that still subjects this topic to the “conspiracy theory” realm.

To view a fraction of these verified quotes, and documents, more you can click HERE.

Below is an example, and a video I’ve used many times before, as it is an extremely powerful statement. I apologize if you’ve seen it before, but it really hits home. There really is an “abundant amount of evidence.”

Again, to view a fraction of these verified quotes, and documents, more you can click HERE. Apart from all the verified statements that come directly from the source, we also have statement made that cannot be completely verified, but are given a great deal of validity from some very credible people. These are also interesting and worth examining. Some of these quotes comes from Ben Rich.

Rich was the second director of Lockheed Skunkwork’s from 1975-1991. He’s been called the Father of Stealth, having overseen the development of the stealth fighter, the F-117A nighthawk. Before his death, Rich made several shocking open statements about the reality of UFOs and extraterrestrials.

“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects, and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity. Anything you can imagine, we already know how to do it.” (1)

“We now have technology to take ET home. No it won’t take someone’s lifetime to do it. There is an error in the equations. We know what it is. We now have the capability to travel to the stars.” (1)

“There are two types of UFOs — the ones we build and the ones ‘they’ build.” (1)

When Rich was asked how UFO propulsion worked, he said, “Let me ask you. How does ESP work?” The questioner responded with, “All points in time and space are connected?” Rich then said, “That’s how it works!”  (This seems to be related to Quantum entanglement, you can read more about that here.)

What Are The Sources For These Quotes?

One of the sources is aerospace journalist, James Goodall, who wrote for publications such as Jane’s Defense Weekly, Aviation Week and Space Technology, and Interavia.  He is an accomplished speaker specializing in the history, development, and operations of the world’s only Mach 3 capable, manned air breathing aircraft, the SR-71 family of aircraft. (1) (source)(source)(source)

He is also an author, as well as the Associate Curator at the Pacific Aviation Meseum, HI. He was also the restoration manager at the Museum of Flight in Paine Field, Everett, WA.

Goodall interviewed many from the classified black budget world (read more about that world here.) He claimed that some of his contacts told him that “we have things out there that are literally out of this world, better than Star Trek or what you see in the movies.” (1)

From his work alone, James Goodall knew Ben Rich well. In a video interview, Goodall stated that he spoke to Rich approximately 10 days before he died:

“About ten days before he died, I was speaking to Ben on the telephone at the USC Medical Center in LA. And he said, ‘Jim, we have things out in the desert that are fifty years beyond what you can comprehend. They have about forty five hundred people at the Lockheed Skunk works. What have they been doing for the last eighteen or twenty years? They’re building something.'” (1)

Another source comes from John Andrews, who was a legendary Lockheed engineer. He had written to Rich, stating his own belief in UFOs, both manmade and extraterrestrial. Andrews has asked Rich if his own beliefs covered extraterrestrial as well as manmade UFOs. Rich’s reply was as follows:

“Yes, I’m a believer in both categories. I feel everything is possible. Many of our man-made UFOs are Un-Funded Opportunities. There are two types of UFOs, the ones we build, and the ones they build.” (1)

In Rich’s reply, he underlined the U, F, and O in “unfunded opportunities.”

Thirdly, Jan Harzan, a senior executive with IBM, along with Tom Keller, an aerospace engineer who has worked as a computer systems analyst for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, discusses a talk Ben gave some time ago. On March 23rd, 1993 at a UCLA School of Engineering talk where he was presenting a general history of Sunk Works, he said this:

“We now know how to travel to the stars. There is an error in the equations, and we have figured it out, and now know how to travel to the stars and it won’t take a lifetime to do it. It is time to end all the secrecy on this, as it no longer poses a national security threat, and make the technology available for use in the private sector. There are many in the intelligence community who would like to see this stay in the black and not see the light of day. We now have the technology to take ET home.” (1)

Here is a video of Jan telling the story:

Another source was Bill McDonalds, a forensic illustrator for the aerospace industry, and a good friend of John Andrews (mentioned above).  He stated that:

“It was Ben Rich’s opinion that the public should not be told. He believed they could not handle the truth, ever. Only in the last months of his decline did he begin to feel that the international corporate Board of Directors’ dealing with the ‘Subject’ could represent a bigger problem to citizens’ personal freedoms under the United States Constitution than the presence of off world visitors themselves.” (1)

Last but not least, Mr. Don Phillips, a CIA contractor who worked with Lockheed Skunkworks and the USAF. He was one of hundreds of other people with verified credentials who made headlines several years ago at a conference which took place at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.

He confirms Ben Rich’s statements and beliefs in an interview that you can watch here.

The latest version of this type of major press conference was the Citizens Hearing on disclosure. It took place from April 29 to May 3, 2013 where researchers, activists, and military/agency/political witnesses representing ten countries gave testimony in Washington, DC to six former members of the United States Congress. Their testimony was about events and evidence which point to an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race and the planet. You can read more about that here.

When it comes to the aerospace industry, UFOs are of high interest. For example, Mike Gold – Director of Operations for Bigelow Aerospace – was recently asked about Bigelow’s involvement with UFO reports. He stated that it’s an issue that “deserves serious attention,” and that he is glad someone is taking these UFO reports. He did mention that he cannot comment on what they do with the reports.

Again, to view a fraction of verified quotes and documents, you can click HERE. I still thought these supposed statements by Rich were worth sharing, given the fact that we already have so many other ones that have been verified.
