Arizona Lights
Kingman –On June 13, 200I was sitting on my property in the Aquarius Mountains south of Interstate 40 at 42 hundred ft. elevation trying to capture lightning in the distance at dusk. Using a three second shutter speed with the lens fully zoomed out and pausing about two seconds between shots I took a series of seven pictures each with the mysterious lights in them. The camera was on a tripod and was never repositioned for the entire series. The lights had to have been blinking for there not to be a trail using a three second exposure. The lights were not observed while taking the pictures; only after loading them on my computer. There is a pattern to the lights across the seven pictures moving right to left. Zooming in on the lights on my computer they appear rectangular.15,

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.
Filer’s Files #27-2015 Truman UFOs Not from Earth - PART I
A snapshot was taken in San Jose, California on June 19, 2015.
Filer’s Files #27-2015 Truman UFOs Not from Earth - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding UFOs Exist, Inventor Nikola Tesla, Mars Craft, Letter from Guardian Susan Signal, 1886 One of the First Reported Close Encounters, and We Can Modify the Weather!
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas and Washington.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Canada, Mexico, Peru, South Africa, Tanzania, and 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.

Special Reports
President Harry S. Truman
Larry Hatch reports, President Harry S. Truman stated “I can assure you that flying saucers, given that they exist, are not constructed by any power on earth.” April 4, 1950, White House Press Conference.
This statement would indicate he had inside information.
Bill Sells writes, “My Uncle was bodyguard for Harry Truman in July of 1947 and they traveled out West to see material from Roswell that was not of Human construction. It was ET.
My Uncle Wayne’s told me Truman and him went to crash site in Corona covertly and he saw the bodies of ETs. A Truman double was used to keep the news media from knowing he had gone on the trip. Several medical technicians who handled the alien bodies died causing Truman to highly classify the crash some 68 years ago.
According to documents read by him, MJ-12 committee scientists estimated these alien creatures were 300 years ahead of us technologically. Their craft had suffered catastrophic damage and the ejection pod was activated too late in the Roswell incident. They believed that these craft were monitoring our nuclear weapons storage areas. The military viewpoint was that these craft were a pre-invasion strike force to determine our military capabilities during reconnaissance missions. They were likely studying how to deactivate our weapons systems. They believe a base exists on far side of moon and that these craft originate from there and mother ships photographed as large cigar shaped vehicles. Just like our naval aircraft carriers only airborne. If you will notice all Apollo mission landing sites were in locations where moon anomalies and strange artificial lights and shapes were previously photographed. These areas were not chosen at random. I believe our astronauts had a military mission as well. Thanks to Bill Sells
Jupiter and Venus
Jupiter and Venus will appear to merge on Tuesday June 30, 2015. This week Venus and Jupiter, the two brightest planets in the sky, are making an inspiring sight, drawing all eyes toward the western sky as night falls.
There will likely be several UFO reports as the planets will be the brightest light in the sky other than the moon.
Dr. Robert Sarbacher Confirms UFO Crash Rumors
A remarkable interview occurred in Washington, D.C., on September 15, 1950, but the content did not leak out until the early 1980s, when Canadian ufologist Arthur Bray found a memo by one of the participants, radio engineer Wilbert B. Smith of Canada’s Department of Transport. The memo described a conversation with physicist Dr. Robert I. Sarbacher, (shown) a consultant with the U.S. Department of Defense Research and Development Board (RDB), at one of the regular meetings and other government scientists conducted with their Canadian counterparts. On September 15, 1950: Wilbur Smith met with Dr. Sarbacher and immediately following the interview wrote notes about the meeting.
Asked about the crash rumors, Sarbacher said they were “substantially correct.” He said, “UFOs exist and we have not been able to duplicate their performance, all we know is, we didn’t make them, and it’s pretty certain they didn’t originate on the Earth.” The issue was so sensitive that “it is classified two points higher even than the H-bomb. In fact it is the most highly classified subject in the U.S. government at the present time.” Sarbacher refused to say more.
Smith, who died in 1961, mounted a small, short-lived UFO investigation, Project Magnet, for his government. Through official channels he tried unsuccessfully to learn more than Sarbacher’s cryptic remarks had revealed. After the memo surfaced, ufologists found a listing for Dr. Sarbacher in Who’s Who in America, citing his impressive scientific, business, and educational credentials.
When interviewed, Dr. Sarbacher said he had not personally participated in the UFO project, though he knew those who had, including U.S. Department of Defense Research and Development Board head Vannevar Bush, John von Neumann, and J. Robert Oppenheimer — three of America’s top scientists in the 1940s and 1950s. He had read documents related to the project and on occasion had been invited to participate in Air Force briefings.
“There were reports that instruments or people operating these machines were also of very light weight, sufficient to withstand the tremendous deceleration and acceleration associated with their machinery,” Sarbacher told an inquirer in 1983. “I remember in talking with some of the people at the office that I got the impression these ‘aliens’ were constructed like certain insects we have observed on Earth, wherein because of the low mass the inertial forces involved in operating of these instruments would be quite low. I still do not know why the high order of classification has been given and why the denial of the existence of these devices.” Sarbacher could not recall where the crashes had taken place, but he did remember hearing of “extremely light and very tough” materials recovered from them.
Sarbacher’s story never varied, and he resisted the temptation to elaborate or speculate. All who interviewed him were impressed. Still, his story could not be verified, since the persons he named were all dead. Sarbacher himself died in the summer of 1986.
They believe a base exists on far side of moon and that these craft originate from there and mother ships photographed as large cigar shaped vehicles. Just like our naval aircraft carriers only airborne. If you will notice all Apollo mission landing sites were in locations where moon anomalies and strange artificial lights and shapes were previously photographed. These areas were not chosen at random. I believe our astronauts had a military mission as well.
Sarbacher claimed the facts reported in Frank Scully’s book “Behind the Flying Saucers,” are substantially correct. UFOs for awhile were not considered classified in Canada and he often gave out some of the best information available to UFOlogists. ufo government 10
Day After Roswell
Readers of Col. Corso’s book the Day after Roswell will recall that Corso talks a lot about Project Horizon in his book. In fact Corso reproduces the 9 June 1959 Project Horizon Report, A U.S. Army Study for the Establishment of Lunar Outpost in the Appendix of his book.
Apollo Landing Points on each edge of map
According to insiders this study was secretly implemented in the 1960’s. I further believe that Corso devoted so much of his book to this because he was trying to hint that when he wrote his book that the Army already had a super-secret operational moon base in operation. On chapter one the introduction the manual states:
“Horizon is the project whose objective is the establishment of a lunar outpost by the United States. This study was directed by letter dated 20 March 1959 from the Chief of R&D, Department of the Army, to the Chief of Ordnance. Responsibility for the preparation of the study was subsequently assigned to the Commanding General, Army Ordnance Missile Command. Elements of all Technical Services of the Army participated in the investigation. This report is a limited feasibility study which investigates the methods and means of accomplishing this objective and the purposes it will serve. It also considers the substantial political, scientific and security implications which the prompt establishment of a lunar outpost will have for the United States.”
“The extent to which future operations might be conducted in space, to include the land mass of the moon or perhaps other planets, is of such a magnitude as to almost defy the imagination. In both Congressional and military examination of the problem, it is generally agreed that the interactions of space and terrestrial war are so great as to generate radically new concepts.”
Ingo Swan while staying at my home told me they had remote viewed the Moon and seen mining operations of a dark mineral probably from volcanic lava flows. He did not know the timeline, if it was the past or the future, but it seemed like an advance technology with space ships was conducting the mining..
Prized on Earth for its strength, ability to resist corrosion and light weight, titanium on the moon, which is mostly found in mineral called ilmenite, could be mined and processed for future use.
The compound, which contains titanium, iron and oxygen, could be heated to free the oxygen so it could be used for breathing or making rocket fuel. It also is studded with particles from the solar wind, including hydrogen and a rare form of helium, called helium 3, a fuel for a proposed fusion reactor. The After Roswell Philip Corso
Weather Destruction
Hundreds of tornados, heavy storms and flooding causing deaths has continued in the United States. Meanwhile drought continues in the West. I spent the last several days cleaning up damage to my yard with the loss of three trees and hundreds of limbs. I had never seen destruction to my property like this and remembered reading about weather modification. In 1968, when I was in Vietnam briefing the general’s about a few aircraft were able to cause heavy rains over Laos. Fifty years later weather modification is a reality and we are seeing the results.
The US and its Allies have many enemies and NATO is carrying out economic sanctions against Russia that is known to have extensive weather modification capabilities. For example, the Russians own HAARP equipment that is apparently functioning.
In 1966, Professor Gordon J. F. MacDonald was Associate Director of the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics at the University of California, and a member of the President’s Council on Environmental Quality. He published papers on the use of environmental control technologies for military purposes. MacDonald made a revealing comment: “The key to geophysical warfare is the identification of environmental instabilities to which the addition of a small amount of energy would release vastly greater amounts of energy.” World-recognized scientist MacDonald had a number of ideas for using the environment as a weapon system and he contributed to what was, at the time, the dream of a futurist. When he wrote his chapter, “How to Wreck the Environment“, for the book “Unless Peace Comes,” he was not kidding around. In it he describes the use of weather manipulation, climate modification, polar ice-cap melting or destabilization, ozone depletion techniques, earthquake engineering, ocean wave control and brainwave manipulation using the planet’s energy fields. He also said, “These types of weapons would be developed and , when used, would be virtually undetectable by their victims.”
Is HAARP that weapon? The military’s intention to do environmental engineering is well-documented. US Congress’s subcommittee hearings on Oceans and International Environment looked into military weather and climate modification conducted in the early 1970s. “What emerged was an awesome picture of far-ranging research and experimentation into ways environmental tampering could be used as a weapon,”
Congressional leaders may find out that technologies developed out of the HAARP experiments in Russia could deliver on Gordon MacDonald’s vision, because leading-edge scientists are describing global weather as not only air pressure and thermal systems but also as an electrical system. SMALL INPUT, BIG EFFECT HAARP zaps the ionosphere where it is relatively unstable.
I suggest the weather in the US is abnormal and is probably caused by geo-engineering programs, or by various Russian and Chinese weather modification programs. A point to remember is that the ionosphere is an active electrical shield protecting the planet from the constant bombardment of high-energy particles from space. This conducting plasma, along with Earth’s magnetic field, traps the electrical plasma of space and holds it back from going directly to the Earth’s surface, says Charles Yost of Dynamic Systems, Leicester, North Carolina: “If the ionosphere is greatly disturbed, the atmosphere below is subsequently disturbed.” Another scientist interviewed said there is a super-powerful electrical connection between the ionosphere and the part of the atmosphere where our weather comes onstage: the lower atmosphere. One man-made electrical effect-power-line harmonic resonance-causes fallout of charged particles from the Van Allen (radiation) belts, and the falling ions cause ice crystals (which precipitate rain clouds).
What about HAARP? Energy blasted upward from an ionospheric heater is not much compared to the total in the ionosphere, but HAARP documents admit that thousand fold greater amounts of energy can be released in the ionosphere than injected. As with MacDonald’s “key to geophysical warfare”, “nonlinear” effects (described in the literature about the ionospheric heater) mean small input and large output. Astrophysicist Adam Trombly told Manning that an acupuncture model is one way to look at the possible effect of multi- gigawatt pulsing of the ionosphere. Angels Dont Play This Haarp
NASA’s UFO
The US space agency has been developing a “UFO” of its own to send astronauts to the Red Planet by 2035. As NASA plans ambitious new robotic missions to Mars, laying the groundwork for even more complex human science expeditions to come, the spacecraft needed to land safely on the Red Planet’s surface necessarily became increasingly massive, hauling larger payloads to accommodate extended stays on the Martian surface. Current technology for decelerating from the high speed of atmospheric entry to the final stages of landing on Mars dates back to NASA’s Viking Program, which put two landers on Mars in 1976. The basic Viking parachute design has been used ever since — and was successfully used again in 2012 to deliver the Curiosity rover to Mars.
The NASA low-density supersonic decelerator (LDSD) project has developed its own UFO-shaped space craft which was launched off the coast of the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Missile Range Facility in Kauai in June.
The test flight involved the use of a balloon to transport the spacecraft high above Earth’s atmosphere. The technology NASA used to land its unmanned Curiosity rover on Mars in 2012 won’t work for a crewed mission. So, the UFO-style ship has been built to create the safest, most economical way of slowing spacecraft down once it enters the Martian atmosphere. The flying saucer-shaped body is surrounded with a huge inflatable tube, which is only blown up later in the flight to slow it down. Website

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 Johnson responds to John Wells Radio Program where he states that aliens are taking from the sun and moon, and that they need He3 to power their ships. Susan says, “Nonsense we don’t use the sun as a source of energy, instead, we use the sun as a central point for hyper dimensional ascension of the solar system and, especially, the earth. It’s used as a stargaze for resonance harmonic projection (what earth scientists call stargazes or wormholes) of ‘our’ ships and mega ships and also acts as a streamer feed for hyper D’ currents through it to this system. These streamers are used as a hyperon coupling modulation to assist in ascension of Earth to higher D’s. We were called here by the Annunaki-proper-to help Earth and the universe reach a stability and D’ state. We also protect the earth from the extreme solar bursts and our ships have been spotted around asteroids, meteors and so on-in order to deflect them away from Earth-not towards it.”
We don’t want the earth to be destroyed because it is in a strategic navigational point in the universe that encompasses several multiverse convergent points and D’ fast track streamers or wormholes. Plus, the earth has a diverse bio and climate diversity that is only seen on very few planets in this universe. With all the over sky activity and vast amounts of resources invested in this planet and its critical position in the universal matrix we can’t afford to let the earth die. We were pulled into a galactic war so as to protect our vectors (critical focusing points of energy used to modify the central planetary energy vortex in order to create a stable matrix configuration). We are lumped together with the greys and are accused of causing all kinds of chaos that is not true. Sincerely, Susan Johnson
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”.

Filer’s Files #27-2015 Truman UFOs Not from Earth - PART II
Sightings of UFOs in the United States
California Lights
Mission Viejo — On Wednesday, June 18, 2014, I was alerted by a fellow employee of unusual stationary lights in the sky or orbs. They shine brightly, then dim, disappear, and reappear, sometimes in the same location.
We observed a total of 5 lights during the encounter. My fellow employee has worked here for 10 years, and I have been there for 5 years. We have never seen similar lights. Thanks to MUFON CMS
San Jose –I saw a deformed rainbow in a Chemtrail and took a snapshot from a my car on June 19, 2015. Later I looked at the photo and noticed an object along with two birds. I have had other experiences in the past with a possible abduction and implant and captured a disc on the camera. I would like to share the photo with MUFON and see if it’s a UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Alien
I was going through my Phone’s Camera Gallery after work and noticed a 17 second video that I had must recorded accidentally. I keep my phone in my back pocket when I’m at work. I checked it out to see what I recorded. The video recorder button had gotten pushed and was recording a small light figure behind me. I paused and re-watched the video about 20 more times. Tell me what you think it could be. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Square UFO
Manalapan — UFOs over the ocean are actually more common than most people know. Even Christopher Columbus recorded in his journals that on October 11, 1492, when he saw a light glimmering at a great distance.
He hurriedly summoned Pedro Gutierrez, a gentleman who also saw the light. After a short time it vanished, only to reappear several times during the night, each time dancing up and down in sudden and passing gleams. The light, first seen four hours before land was sighted, was never explained.” Most alien bases are below water, and since 75% of the earth is covered by water that means 75% of the UFOs are over the water. We just are not there to see them all. Thanks to UFO Sightings Daily
At 5:20 PM, on May 31, 2015, while on the balcony I observed what I thought was a bright star out over water in south Palm Beach. When I viewed it through my camera’s viewfinder using a 300 mm I saw that it was rectangular in shape, very bright and stationary. I took pictures for 40 minutes after which it slowly moved further away. A ship on the horizon appears to have cleaner edges then the UFO. In another picture you can see a drone being flown by someone I assume on the beach. UFOstalker
Illinois Lights
Edinburgh — When I do watch them. I keep thinking please land in the field, why are you following me? I’ll try flashing different color lights at them tonight. Last evening when my husband and I were coming home from Taylorville Illinois 10 miles from home it was so dark because of storms moving in, lightning and thundering, the one was following me and was with me all the way home. I hope they do communicate with me. They’ve been following me for so long I wish they would do something besides hover in the sky. If you don’t hear from after tonight you know they took me. Take Care, Pam
Indiana Light
Lagrange — On June 23, 2015, at 11:45 PM, I went outside to see if I could see the Aurora Borealis, as it was supposed to be visible. I did not see the Northern Lights but looking west I observed a bright pulsating star that the camera picked up. A few days later I enlarged it, and was amazed to see 7 orbs around a central sphere. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Missouri Lights
Eureka — There was a bad storm in the St Louis area on June 28, 2015, and watched the low clouds and I took pictures. I left around 9:45 pm, and saw bright lights. I said to my brother, “What is that, a helicopter?” I drove up to the stop sign and got a good view of the bright lights. They were stationary; one was a longer and very bright one and a smaller one to the right. I took a couple of pictures because I had no idea what they were. The larger object had several square windows. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Montana Lights
UFOs Northwest has received a high percentage of reports that are due to the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus. When people see aerial objects on clear nights for long periods of time they are most likely viewing bright planets.
Our group has received probably two dozen reports in the past month that are due to bright planets. Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw
New Jersey 1928 Aliens
Bellemead — This story is from my Mom as a child, who lived on a farm when about August 10, 1928, she didn’t even know what a ufo was. Her brothers and sisters were getting ready for bed when it seemed like day time outside.
She said, “The farm animals were crying and running all over with a big flood light shinning down on them that was so bright she could see the hay in the field.”
Her father a Polish immigrant yelled, “Get in the house, not to worry it was an angel that had come to bless their farm. Out of the corner of her eye she could see her dad take his shotgun and sit on the porch.” Mom said, “They held there rosaries and said prayers out loud.”
Other farmers had the same thing happen to them. As I grew up I noticed strange abilities my Mom had like foreseeing things before they happened. She would stare out the window of our house as if she was receiving information. She also had the ability to stop or start machinery. I asked, how could you do these things; her answer was, “God gave her the powers.” Remember at that time we had no electricity at all. Thanks to MUFON
Glendora — My brother thinks that on February 13, 2015, he brought an alien life form home with him from a friend’s house. The aliens can make themselves invisible, but they have let him see them. They are not allowed to talk to him so they communicate by touch. For instance, one touch is for ‘yes’ and two for ‘no’ when he asks questions. At first he says there were over 50, but now there is only one female that has claimed him. She says that, “The males of her race no longer have genitalia so they are here to be impregnated in hopes to have male children to reproduce. It takes them three days to get here from there. I think its name was Mistake and it’s the 3rd star in Orion’s belt. They use Dark matter engines and can reach speeds thousands of times the speed of light. They have been here for many years. There species along with 4 other alien races that she knows of helped to create the pyramids and other things on earth. So far this is all I know”.
He has said that, “She was O.k. with me meeting her, but to tell you the truth, I’m scared.” I am sort of a skeptic about this, but from everything he has told me I think I believe him. He has never been a person to make up stories. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New York Lights
New York City— I was up on my roof having a smoke and looked at our city’s skyline on June 20, 2015. I live in mid town west so Times Square is near when I noticed 7 objects fluttering falling like birds.
I realized they had lights on them and would change direction and angles. I thought maybe they were drones and shot this with my IPhone. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Object
Hempstead — There was a storm moving in and the clouds looked like a tornado on June 24, 2015.
We took 8 pictures all within seconds of each other and in one frame there is clearly a visible object. There was no sound, not even wind. It was very calm.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Lights
New Concord— I was driving home east on Route 40 when I saw what I thought was a plane moving on November 20, 2014. Then I passed under the orange/red ball of light. I got about 400 yards away and pulled off the road and watched. They would vanish into the clouds and then show up above the tree line to the north of Route 40. Following the same flight path as the first they moved southwest. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Craft
This is a report of a “black triangle” observed in the late fall of 1976 with 7 X 50 Nikon binoculars. Two observer’s ages: 28 and 30 years of age at the time, who are 67 and 69 now. The craft was as close as 100 to 125 feet. My wife is a middle school teacher, and I’m an Electrical Designer and draftsman.
We noticed the craft when it directly overflew us at an altitude of 100-125 feet, moving generally north at less than 10 miles per hour. There was a slight sound, like exhaling gently through pursed lips. We immediately jumped in the 4WD pickup, and began to follow the craft across the Brownwood Peninsula subdivision. The craft crossed the shoreline at the south end of Burnet Bay and flew 75 yards offshore and stopped. The craft remained stationary for about ten minutes, slightly bobbling. We had no camera.
We raced north on Thompson Road to get ahead of the craft and saw the craft coming, and stopped directly in its path. The craft overflew us at 100 feet. It was not yet dark, but I turned on my truck spotlight onto the bottom of the craft and we observed center-line bay doors on the bottom of the craft. We observed the craft cross the south shoreline of the Highlands Reservoir, and flew out of sight. We had chased it for 45 minutes.
The craft’s pinkish-orange dim marker lights were one at each corner of the triangular shape, about as bright as 25 watt bulbs. It was an isosceles triangle, about 40 feet wide and 80 feet long. The rear was 40 feet wide and 10 feet high at the middle. This shape tapered to a point at the front end. All edges appeared to be sharp. There was no discernible cockpit with possibly grilled openings at the rear of the craft. We observed no markings, windows, camera ports, antennas, or external attachment points. The craft was flat black, like the SR-71. We saw a US Military stealth intruder craft being tested. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Entity
Vancouver— I was in bed asleep when I heard slightly different noises than my cat, and birds in my room. I raised my head and opened my eyes to see the first entity on June 7, 2015. He was about 4 to 4.5 feet very dark gray with almost a shimmer to his skin. His face was very fat with very large eyes and a beautiful swirling affect to them. He looked at me and said nothing. Next to him was another entity that acknowledged me as well. He was looking at me, and we seemed to be talking, telepathically. He assured me that I was safe, and they were there to do no harm. (I have been really sick for a long time with chronic infection, and in and out of the hospital). He tilted his head and looked at me as he, “understood I did not feel well and sympathetic. I will never forget his face, and how kind I felt he was and confirming my safety watching over me.
I told them all, “I wasgoing back to sleep then.” The closest one looked at me as if to “approve “and I went back to sleep. When I woke, I was afraid to tell my family, I never have had dreams like this, it was so clear, and vivid, and every detail. When I awoke, I found a “silver dollar size ring on my stomach.” I am profoundly affected by this as I do not believe in alien abduction! I have seen many crafts all my life. I never believed that aliens would bother with humans! Thanks to MUFON CMS
Yelm — These ships were sighted city bound and flying southwest and fading upward on June 24, 2015. They were glowing burnt orange, multiple ships close to each other. I took a picture just before they faded. There was a ship that was not in the picture as it was just flying after the others. A few started fading away.
Note:The witness also sent the original photo. I used his edited photo because he interpreted what he saw and photographed. Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw
Sighting of UFO from Space Station
Earth Orbit
I was watching the space station live cam on June 26, 2015, when I caught an interesting UFO above the clouds. It was glowing and had two wings and a wider front, similar to the shape of its wings. It can be seen better at the end of the video, when I put it into negative format. The object is clearly a solid craft. Thanks to Scott C. Waring
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia Alien
Brisbane — At 1:30 AM, on Sunday morning, I received a phone call from two friends who were wondering if I was still up on September 16, 2008, and if I’d like to meet them in the park. I met them in a park about a three minute walk away. We were sitting at a picnic table when we noticed a tall human-like figure walking around the perimeter of the park.
This “person”, although clearly walking rather than running, was somehow covering the distance in about one minute. It passed by three times and we noticed it easily 7 feet tall. We decided to ambush it as it made its next circuit and when it was about thirty metres away we came out of the shadows it somehow passed us, and was twenty metres away. We sprinted after it, up a slight hill and beneath a streetlight it turned, and looked at me. It was very tall and thin wearing a black suit, had no hair, with white skin. The details of its face were blurred, as we kept running as fast as we could. We could not catch it as it continued walking and rounded a corner and was gone. We felt something very strange was happening; my friends. Perhaps it was a man in Black.
It covered an impossible distance in an impossible space of time. Even if it had been running, there’s just no way a person could move that fast.. No craft was seen. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Blue Knob, NSW — I live in the bush behind Nimbin and was admiring the full moon on June 30, 2015, when suddenly a flying fireball came into sight. My first thought was it was a plane on fire, but it steadily made its way silently across the sky with no smoke or distress. Then another followed and then another. They were three yellow and orange fireball flying objects. Google ufo fireball sightings are being reported worldwide. Thanks to UFOINFO Joline
Canada UFO
Strathroy — My husband was taking pictures of his land on June 15, 2015. When we printed the pictures we saw the object, but had not seen or heard it. He thought it was a tower.
Upon closer observation of the picture and blowing it up, we noticed the shape and that it is not in the pictures before or after.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
India Disc
I saw the event in the Kanpur Uttar Pradesh in Shyam Nagar, India a local newspaper on June 25, 2015.
I thought that it might help you out in your research. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mexico Object
Teotihuacan — On a trip to Mexico, I took a photo of the Pyramid of the Sun on May 4, 2015. Later, when I was reviewing my photo, I saw two objects above the pyramid. I didn’t see or hear them at the time. My friend took an almost identical photo 10 seconds after I did and nothing is in her photo. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Peru Orb
This orb fleet was seen by a sky watcher on June 22, 2015, as they flew in a line of UFOs. One after another they passed by with two lights on them. I do not believe the two lights are two separate UFOs, but rather just one single UFO. There is only sky behind it.
Alberton Stadium — 26°16’40.22”S 28°08’01.45″E — This UFO looks a lot like a jellyfish type of craft on June 3, 2015. The object has a hanging area that gets thinner as it reaches down, much like tentacles do. The object was discovered by YouTube user DanielofDoria02 who added contrast so we could see the UFOs color and shape. Thanks to SCW
Tanzania Disc
Dar es Salaam — I was on a safari tour of Tanzania and we camped by the Indian Ocean and I was talking with a Dutch member of our group about ten at night when we saw a disk shaped craft in the sky on May 28, 2001. It was a glowing orangish-red color and traveling away from the earth. We observed for ten seconds when it vanished. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Lights
Worthing— Clip164: I was outside shining my laser pen into the sky, and in the south a massive UFO brightened it’s lights on June 30, 2015. It turned its lights on brighter than the stars around it using my Panasonic W-850 with Infrared. I could see the surface of the UFO and it was a dull grey color. I also filmed intelligent white flying orbs, which would change their direction and stop in mid air! Another Clip had two UFOs lighten the movie. I spotted a UFO that was much brighter than the stars around it. My neighbors saw it too then abruptly went indoors. Thanks to MUFON CMS

7 'alien sightings' for World UFO Day
7 'alien sightings' for World UFO Day
Photo: Jayne Clark, USA TODAY)
Are we alone? Not according to those who celebrate World UFO Day.
Each year on July 2 extraterrestrial enthusiasts around the globe celebrate unidentified flying objects and the possibility of life outside planet Earth.
USA TODAY Network looks back at some of the most buzzed-about sightings of unidentified flying objects.
1. Nuremberg, Germany, in April 1561
Witnesses described seeing "globes," "crosses" and "plates" battling it out in the sky. Drawings and woodcuttings from the time depict the unusual sighting.
2. Aurora, Texas, in April 1897
Local lore has it that a cigar-shaped object allegedly hit a windmill, causing it to crash. An alien body was discovered in the wreckage and buried in an unmarked grave, according to legend. The Texas Historical Commission erected a sign that mentions the "legend that a spaceship crashed nearby in 1897 and the pilot, killed in the crash, was buried here."
3. Roswell, N.M., in July 1947
Roswell has become synonymous with UFOs. A rancher discovered debris from a crashed airborne object. Some people said they thought the debris came from a spacecraft and even saw alien bodies.
The Air Force said in a 1994 report that the material came from experimental surveillance balloons and any bodies were dummies in the balloons. But many remain convinced the government covered up an extraterrestrial visit.
4. Washington, D.C., in July 1952
A series of sightings were reported over the nation's capital. Washington National Airport and Andrew Air Force Base detected the objects on their radar, according to The Washington Post.
In 1952, the Air Force launched Project Blue Book to collect and analyze potential threats in the air. Air Force Maj. Gen. John Samford held a press conference at the end of July 1952 to address unidentified sightings, opening with, "I am here to discuss the so-called flying saucers."
The incident has since been attributed to temperature inversion.
"The warm air can create a ceiling that causes radar beams to bounce down. Objects on the ground — moving cars, a row of telephone poles — can appear to be thousands of feet in the air," the Post reported in 2012.
5. Chicago, Ill., in November 2006
An object was spotted hovering over Gate C-17 at O'Hare International Airport. Some witnesses told the Chicago Tribune they were upset that neither the government nor United Airlines, which operates the C terminal, was going to investigate the sighting.
6. Stephenville, Texas, in January 2008
Dozens of people said they saw a large, low-flying object with bright lights. Two nearby Air Force bases said that none of their aircraft were in the area.
7. Jerusalem in January 2011
Witnesses and at least three cameras reportedly spotted a bright light hover above the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem before suddenly shooting upward. The sighting was likely a hoax, said an Israeli TV station.

World UFO Day: ‘I was abducted by aliens – and they put a machine in my body’
World UFO Day: ‘I was abducted by aliens – and they put a machine in my body’
Steve Munday’s ‘alien implant’
Steve Munday is married, and manages a shop in Rugby – but 40 years ago, he had a bizarre experience.
He claims he still has the alien implant in his arm as a memento of the day he was abducted while riding a bike to his friend’s house in Northampton in 1974.
Steve says: ‘The journey should have taken me 15 minutes, 20 minutes at the most. Yet, I seemed to blank out sometime during this trip.
‘All I can remember is one minute I was riding along in bright sunshine, then I found myself a mile further down the road wrestling with a wobbling bike, going downhill.
‘Time had obviously moved on, as it was now dark. When I got to my friend’s home it was 2 hours after I first set off, so I ‘lost’ about 1 hour and 45 minutes of time.
(Picture: File)
‘A few days later I found a small object underneath my skin. There was no sign of a scar or entry point, just a red mark. It’s about 1 centimetre long by 3 or 4 millimetres wide and seems to be independent of my body.
‘When it’s active it upsets the scanners at supermarket checkouts. It will make the till ring up the wrong prices. It also affects other electrical gadgets if I go close to them.
Steve Munday’s sketch of the UFO (Picture: Steve Munday)
‘I don’t know what the object does. If it is genuinely alien, then perhaps they have tagged me so that they can monitor where I am and where I’m going.
‘It might even be used as a means of contacting me when they need to.
‘When I show it to people they can get very squeamish, although my brother says he would like to cut it out to get a really good look at it. I would also like to have it examined but I don’t want it to be removed. We all live rather boring lives so this object separates me from other people, and makes me feel special.
‘My two brothers have also had UFO contacts and paranormal experiences throughout their lives. We all share a rare blood type, so I wonder if through our DNA and genetics we are specially chosen by these forces.’
‘To this day I am intrigued by what did go on during my missing 1 hour and 45 minutes that evening in 1974.’

What to Expect From Aliens When We Make First Contact
What to Expect From Aliens When We Make First Contact
What to expect from aliens? A better designed spaceship that does not emit pollutants.
Given the vastness of space, it may only be a matter of time before we make contact with intelligent extraterrestrials. But how might an alien civilization react to such a monumental meet-and-greet, and can we possibly know their intentions? Here’s what we might expect.
Alien civilizations will most assuredly be like snowflakes: no two will be the same. Each will differ according to an array of factors, including their mode of existence, age, history, developmental stage, and level of technological development. That said, advanced civilizations may have a lot in common as they adapt to similar challenges; we all share the same Universe, after all.
We’ve obviously never interacted with an alien civilization, so we have virtually no data to go by. Predicting alien intentions is thus a very precarious prospect — but we do have ourselves to consider as a potential model, both in terms of our current situation and where we might be headed as a species in the future. With this in mind, I analyzed three different scenarios in my effort to predict how extraterrestrial intelligences (ETIs) might react to meeting us/
Contact with a biological species much like our own
Contact with a post-biological species more advanced than ours
Contact with a superintelligent machine-based alien intelligence
Clearly, there may be other alien typologies out there, but there’s no sense trying to predict what they might be like, especially in terms of their intentions.
Cut from the Same Cosmological Cloth
There’s virtually no way that an alien species will appear and behave exactly like us, but that doesn’t mean we won’t share certain similarities; in reality, we may be more alike than not — especially if we’re both still at the biological stage of our development.
As evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins pointed out in Climbing Mount Improbable, there’s no long term planning involved in evolution, but species do move towards fitness peaks, i.e. they tend to get better at specialized tasks over time (a classic example is the spider web, which is considered an optimal “design” in nature). What’s more, some species separated by time and space have been known to evolve startlingly similar traits, a phenomenon biologists refer to as convergent evolution. It’s not unreasonable to surmise, therefore, that an alien species with human-like intelligence — and the physical attributes to exert that intelligence on its environment — will share certain things in common with humans, including technologies and inherited behaviors.
Image: Simulations show that virtual spiders exhibit similar web-building behavior to real spiders. Extrapolating to humans and aliens, it’s conceivable that our technologies and socio-political organization also converge around similar “fitness peaks.” (credit: Thiemo Krink & Fritz Vollrath)
In his new book, The Runes of Evolution, evolutionary biologist Conway Morris argues that, while the number of possibilities in evolution is astronomical, the number that actually work is an infinitesimally smaller fraction.
“Convergence is one of the best arguments for Darwinian adaptation, but its sheer ubiquity has not been appreciated,” he noted in a recent University of Cambridge article. “Often, research into convergence is accompanied by exclamations of surprise, describing it as uncanny, remarkable and astonishing. In fact it is everywhere, and that is a remarkable indication that evolution is far from a random process. And if the outcomes of evolution are at least broadly predictable, then what applies on Earth will apply across the Milky Way, and beyond.”
Morris contends that biological aliens will likely resemble humans, including features like limbs, heads, bodies — and intelligence. And if our levels of intelligence are comparable, then our psychologies and emotional responses may be similar as well.
Inherited Behaviors
So which inherited behaviors might we share in common?
As a species descended from primates, we are highly social creatures with definite hierarchical tendencies. As Jared Diamond pointed out in Guns, Germs and Steel: The Fate of Human Societies, we’re also risk takers. Indeed, humans are distinct among primates in that we exhibit migratory proclivities; our ancestors frequently abandoned their “natural” environments in search of better ones, or when following migratory creatures like large game. This risk-taking behavior, along with our insatiable curiosity, language skills, and unparalleled conceptual abilities, has allowed us to innovate and organize over the millennia.
But is it fair to project our primate-like attributes onto aliens? Yes and no. Biological aliens are not likely to be primates, but some might be very primate-like. For terrestrial species, the mode of evolution from a Darwinian to a post-Darwinian phase may follow similar patterns. And from a social constructionist perspective, humans and aliens may also share similarities in the socio-political realm.
That said, if alien species evolved from different biological precursors, like animals similar to fish, insects, dinosaurs, birds, or something we don’t observe here on Earth, their behaviors will likely be markedly different, and thus very difficult — but not necessarily impossible — to predict. But it’s fair to say that an overly belligerent, anti-social species, no matter how intelligent or physically adept, is not likely to advance to a post-industrial, face-fairing stage.
If aliens are biologically and socially like us, therefore, they may share many of our desires and proclivities, including our interest in science, and in meeting and interacting with extraterrestrial life. At the same time, however, they may also share our survival instinct and experience trepidation at meeting “the other,” leading to the prioritization of the in-group.
Should we make first contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI), we’ll have to make sure that we come across as friendly. Hopefully they’ll do the same. But even if we’re happy to meet each other, a major challenge will be in assessing the risks of cultural and technological exchange; just because we get along doesn’t mean that something unintentionally bad could happen. As a historical example, the introduction of Eurasian diseases to the Americas during the colonization era is a potent reminder of what can happen when disparate and formerly isolated civilizations meet.
As Stephen Hawking has said, “If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans. We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn’t want to meet.”
An ideal encounter (Star Trek: First Contact)
The late Carl Sagan had a different take, arguing that it’s inappropriate to make historical analogies when discussing alien intentions. A contact optimist, he said it was unlikely that we’d face “colonial barbarity” from advanced ETIs. According to Sagan, alien civilizations that lived long enough to colonize a good portion of the galaxy would be the least likely to engage in aggressive imperialism. He also thought that any “quarrelsome” extraterrestrials would be quashed by a more powerful species. What’s more, he didn’t think that technologically advanced ETIs would have anything to fear from us, so we needn’t fear them.
Close Encounters of the Machine Kind
The hunt for radio signals and laser messages may lead us to discover an alien species much like our own. But if an alien spaceship suddenly appeared at our door, it’s highly unlikely that something biological would come out. More likely, some sort of machine would be there to greet us.
Bots from space (Iron Giant)
As NASA’s Chief Historian Steven J. Dick has pointed out, the dominant form of life in the cosmos is probably post-biological. Advanced alien civilizations, either through their own trans-biological evolution or through the rise of their artificially intelligent progeny, are more likely to be machine-based than meat-based. We ourselves may be heading in this direction, as witnessed by current and pending advances in genetics, cybernetics, molecular nanotechnology, cognitive science, and information technology.
Because of the limits of biology and flesh-and-blood brains...cultural evolution will eventually result in methods for improving intelligence beyond those biological limits. If the strong Artificial Intelligence concept is correct, that is, if it is possible to construct AI with more intelligence than biologicals, postbiological intelligence may take the form of AI. It has been argued that humans themselves may become postbiological in this sense within a few generations.
This line of argumentation led Dick to posit the Intelligence Principle:
The maintenance, improvement and perpetuation of knowledge and intelligence is the central driving force of cultural evolution, and to the extent intelligence can be improved, it will be improved.
Sounds like a cool mission statement — one common to all civilizations as they evolve and adapt to changing conditions over time. Given similar fitness landscapes — like trying to develop a stable and optimal Type II Kardashev Civilization or living in tandem with artificial superintelligence — ETIs may evolve towards a common mode of existence. However, extreme adaptationist pressures, including and especially the mitigation of existential risks, may constrain post-biological life in very narrow ways. Should this be the case, we may eventually be able to predict the nature of this modality. Such an exercise would serve the dual purpose of modeling our future selves and the potential characteristics and tendencies of extraterrestrial civilizations.
Image: a megastructure similar to a Dyson ring (Utente/Hill/CC BY-SA 3.0)
Needless to say, post-biological aliens, like cyborgs or civilizations comprised of uploaded minds, would have a different set of priorities than what we’re accustomed to. These ETIs may be content to build their Dyson Spheres and live virtual lives fueled by massive Matrioshka Brains. If this is the case, they may have no desire to make contact with biological beings like ourselves. It’s difficult to know if they’d be willing to make contact with civilizations similar to their own, though it’s likely they’d want to keep to themselves. A kind of intergalactic xenophobia may explain the Great Silence and the Fermi Paradox; the dearth of colonizing waves of ETIs seems to suggest that everyone prefers to stay at home, away from prying eyes.
At the same time, if machine intelligences do rule the cosmos (either locally or across the vastness of space), then we may run into what’s known as the incommensurability problem. For the time being, the differences between human minds and machine minds is so great that communication is impossible. Simply put, predicting the intentions and behaviors of post-biological intelligence is practically impossible.
Beware the Alien Skynet
As noted by Dick, the cosmos may be peppered with artificial superintelligence (ASI) — machines that either succeeded or supplanted their biological forebears.
Predicting the behaviors and intentions of ASIs is a conundrum currently faced by AI theorists who worry about the prospect of machine minds run amok. But it’s also something that astrobiologists and SETI scientists should be concerned about.
What might a machine-based alien superintelligence do with itself? Frighteningly, it may adopt a set of “instrumental goals” to ensure its ongoing existence. If this is the case, we may want to steer clear of them (and by ‘steer clear’ I mean keep a low cosmic profile). Oxford University philosopher Nick Bostrom explains what’s meant by instrumental goals:
Several instrumental values can be identified which are convergent in the sense that their attainment would increase the chances of the agent’s goal being realized for a wide range of final goals and a wide range of situations, implying that these instrumental values are likely to be pursued by a broad spectrum of situated intelligent agents.
In other words, while an alien artificial superintelligence may have a set of primary goals, they will, in the words of Bostrom, “pursue similar intermediary goals because they have instrumental reasons to do so.” He calls this the Instrumental Convergence Thesis.
Physicist and AI theorist Steve Omohundro has taken a stab at trying to predict what these sub-goals might be. His list of drives include self-preservation, self-protection, utility function or goal-content integrity (i.e. ensuring that it doesn’t deviate from its predetermined goals or values), self-improvement, and resource acquisition. Consequently, advanced machine-based alien intelligences may be extraordinarily dangerous to outsiders.
On the bright side, however, a super-powerful machine intelligence may have adopted a primary goal, or utility function, that requires it to remove as much suffering from the Galaxy as possible. Or to create as many meaningful individual experiences as possible, i.e. by converting all useable matter into computronium. Think of it as the pan-Galactic application of the utilitarian ethic. If that’s the case, we should certainly hope to meet them some day. Assuming, of course, that we don’t get destroyed in the process.

UFO files will be released by Germany
UFO files will be released by Germany
BERLIN Germany – The Administrative Court of Berlin had ordered the German parliament to release all its UFO files.
The “Deutsche Bundestag” was ordered to give access to secret official reports compiled by the “Scientific Research Service of the German parliament” on demand of delegates on the question on the government’s knowledge and studies about UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
The German parliament has already appealed the decision – and is trying to block all attempts at releasing the UFO files. But the Berlin court is confident that the files will be released.
“The right of access to official information under the German freedom of information act also applies to studies and reports of the ‘Scientific Research Service of the Bundestag’, the Berlin Administrative Court explained in its decision announcement on December 1st, 2011.
Until the court hearing the Bundestag denied access to the paper by referring to the claim that the work and results of the “Scientific Research Service of the Bundestag” are part of the work of the parliament and the mandatory work of the delegates and therefore should be excluded from demands referring to the freedom of information act.
In it’s press release the Administrative Court explained further, that the judges did not agree with this claim of the parliament and therefore did not followed the complaint upheld by the Bundestag and instead ordered that it must give the claimant insight into the secret report.
Observers speculate that the persistence with which the Bundestag denied and still tries to deny the insight into the UFO-paper, or even it’s publication, is not so much about the treated subject (in this case UFOs and extraterrestrial life), but in general about questions of dealing with reports and papers by the “Scientific Research Service of the German Bundestag” in the future and in the face of the freedom of information act in general.
Beside stating, that because so many other NATO members, partners and neighboring countries – such as France, the USA, Belgium, the United Kingdom and Italy (.to name only a few) – did investigate UFOs, it is “more than likely that also official German authorities and Departments dealt with this questions (about the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial life)”, the report does not reveal any secrets about UFOs and alien life, nor a secret knowledge about it by the German government.

EXCLUSIVE: MOD to release UK's top secret UFO 'X-Files' that 'could prove aliens exist'
EXCLUSIVE: MOD to release UK's top secret UFO 'X-Files' that 'could prove aliens exist'
CONFIDENTIALgovernment reports into Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) sightings - dubbed the "British X-Files" - could be made publicly available within EIGHT months.
Will release of top secret UK UFO files reveal proof of aliens?
The major boost for alien hunters can be exclusively revealed by Express.co.uk on World UFO Day, which campaigners are using to call for the release of all such records globally.
UFO researchers, backed by House of Lords peer, have been fighting for the release of 18 top secret Ministry of Defence (MoD) files about UFO sightings from more than 30 years ago.
The Government faced claims of a cover-up from conspiracy theorists when their release was stalled at the end of 2013.
Some investigators claim the files could provide key evidence of extra-terrestrial life visiting the UK and of specific information about famous controversial sightings such as the Rendlesham Forest incident - a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of one or more craft in Suffolk in late December 1980.
Lord Black of Brentwood, who asked the Government for an update through a Parliamentary question, was assured yesterday - the day before World UFO day - the files would be released by the MoD to the National Archives by March next year.
Alien hunters are confident these records could prove if extra-terrestrial life actually exists, as these were the most secretive files held in the private offices of various Cabinet ministers.
Although the files are being released to the National Archives, it is not yet clear when they will be available for public inspection.
GETTY
The files have been top secret for over 30 years
In his Parliamentary question, Lord Black asked: "In relation to the 18 Ministry of Defence files on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) that have yet to be released to the public, what is the originating division of the file reference M9/18; what is the remit of that division in relation to UAP; and what is their latest estimate of when the 18 files will be passed to the National Archives, and then released to the public."
Defence Minister Earl Howe replied: "The originating branch of file reference MO9/18 relates to ministers' private offices. The latest estimate of when the 18 files will be delivered to the National Archives is before March 2016.
"The National Archives will make the necessary judgement about when they release these files to the public."

The UK "X-Files" are being released
A number of older UFO files held by the UK government have already been released, including details of sightings by officials and police.
Nick Pope, who used to investigate the existence of UFOs for the MoD, said the files should contain some fascinating sightings.
However, referring to what is often called the most famous UFO claim in history - sparked by claims an alien spaceship crashed in New Mexico, US, in 1947 - Mr Pope added the soon-to-be-released files are probably not a "UK Roswell-style UFO in a hangar style cover up".
When the release of the files were stalled in 2014, which the MoD blamed on "additional processing requirements", Mr Pope sympathised with alien researchers.
He said at the time: "This massive delay will have conspiracy theorists up in arms. It looks like the MoD is stalling.
"The suspicion will be that there's a bombshell in these files and that the Ministry does not know how to handle it.
"I can understand why conspiracy theorists will be angry and suspicious."
Mr Pope worked at the MoD for 21 years, but was specifically assigned to investigate UFOs for a three-year period.
He told Express.co.uk today: "Coincidentally, to World UFO Day, the government just announced the date for the release of the final batch of Ministry of Defence UFO files.
"The fact that there is a World UFO Day shows the public's ongoing fascination with one of the great mysteries of our time. Having worked on the MoD's UFO project I'm sorry to say that we don't have any crashed spaceships hidden away in some RAF hangar, as some believe, but we do have some fascinating and unexplained cases in our files."

Long sought after UK 'X-Files' to be released
The latest estimate of when the 18 files will be delivered to the National Archives is before March 2016.
Defence Minister Earl Howe
Today's World UFO Day is the fifteenth to be held on the anniversary of the Roswell mystery, when a UFO was alleged to have crashed near Roswell in New Mexico in July 1947, before being squirelled away by the military with aliens still inside the craft.
It is then claimed officials covered up the spacecraft's crash as being a downed weather balloon.
The 'Redlesham Forest incident', which is alleged to have taken place near RAF Woodbridge, Suffolk, in 1980, saw US Airman First Class John Burroughs, who was stationed there, exposed to radiation after a mystery "UFO visitation".
He has since won damages from the American military, but still wants answers about what happened and hopes they will be in the new files.
GETTY
Will files get to the bottom of the Rendlesham Forest Incident?
Pat Frascogna, his lawyer, said: "We know there is information contained in these MoD files about the Rendlesham Forest incident because the MoD clearly indicated so in responding to a Freedom of Information request by John Burroughs last year."
UFO hunters are keeping their eyes firmly on the skies today and tonight to celebrate the global fascination with the flying saucer.
According to the World UFO Day website, it is dedicated to "raising awareness about the undoubted existence of UFO’s and with that intelligent beings from outer space."
It is also part of a campaign to get international governments to "declassify" their so-called confidential "X-Files" on UFO sightings throughout their history.

Mysterious crop circles have been spotted in wheat fields across the world for decades. With no witnesses to see them being made and reports of strange glowing lights hovering above them, could crop circles be the proof that aliens exist?
“What do you think about crop circles being proof of alien life? If not then who is making crop circles? Sure there are some man made but some are so extraordinary it definitely seems otherworldly. Let us know what you think in the comments section about crop circles being prove positive of alien life.” – J.P.

Mind Boggling UFO “Cube” – Multiple View Witnesses And Photos
Mind Boggling UFO “Cube” – Multiple View Witnesses And Photos
Before It's News)
by Gregg Prescott, M.S. Editor, In5D.com
On June 29th, 2015, a UFO “cube” was seen emerging out of the clouds by multiple people in Texas.
The video of the photo compilation was released by YouTube user secureteam10.
Walter C. Lance of El Paso, Texas was the first person to submit the photographs to secureteam10. Lance stated he took the photographs on June 29th, 2015 around 1PM central time during his lunch break.
According to secureteam10, Lance stated that it began to get very windy outside when a portion of the clouds began to “swirl and circle in on one another forming this portal shape”. The area within this circular vortex turned “jet black” which is when Lance took out his cellphone to take the following pictures:
This is what the UFO cube looks like when zoomed in on the image:
The first thing that comes to mind is the cube shape and how the cube is tied to Saturn, which in astrotheology is “Satan” which I go into a lot more detail in the article, “Saturn – Why Are We Worshiping The Cult Of EL?“.
The following is an excerpt from that article:
Semitic civilizations referred to the god Saturn as “El” who is the supreme deity and represented by a black cube.
If you look at the etymology of the word Kabbalah, Kabba = cube and alah (allah) means God, so you get the Cube of God.
If:
Saturn is the Cult of EL
the Kabbala is the Cube of God
Saturn is the Lord of the Rings
there is a hexagonal cube on the north pole of Saturn
Pan is the God of Saturn
Saturn is Satan in astrotheology
… then who are we truly giving our energy to?
A third image captured on film shows a rectangular shape to this UFO:
A second eye witness also saw this cube shaped UFO about a mile away from the first eye witness as she was returning back to work from her lunch break. She noticed a “square shaped figure moving through the clouds and thought it was a balloon but after watching it, she realized the enormity of its size with designs around it and a “faint, magnetic oscillation-type humming” that seemed to emulate from the craft.
She was also able to get a picture of this UFO:
Zoomed in and enhance filter photos:
The following is her UFO testimony:
Cubes and Spheres?
In recent news, contactee Corey Goode speaks of the Blue Avians, who are benevolent extraterrestrials that are watching over our planet in blue spheres, which is in sharp contrast to the cube shape:
Are benevolent beings here watching over us and helping us to a new level of spiritual evolution? Goode has a Facebook page called Sphere Being Alliance, where you can follow his latest news.
At the highest level of Freemasonry, the motto is “Ordo ab chao” which means “Order out of chaos”. It’s apparent that we are being set up for the “end times” to which we are living in right now and this is all based on chaos because when we live in fear, we can be easily manipulated.
Is it possible that we’re being set up for a false flag alien invasion via a Project Bluebeam type scenario?
Are malevolent, archontic-type beings here siphoning our energy through fear?
It’s quite obvious that an official UFO disclosure is imminent but one thing we can be assured is that it will be skewed towards the viewpoints of the church and military industrial complex. Unless benevolent ET’s can broadcast their message on every channel, in every language, and in every country, you can be assured that the mainstream media will twist any official disclosure to benefit those in power who have kept us in subservience, control, and conformity for thousands of years.
As for the cube shaped UFO, it is unclear whether this is a real UFO or possibly a PSYOPS hologram created by those in power as a test to see how we would react to this anomaly.
What my gut is telling me is
If this is a real, cube-shaped UFO, then it probably is not here in humanity’s best interests based on my research of the cube and its ties to Saturn/Cronus/Satan.
Most likely, it’s some elaborate hoax, a marketing ploy, a hologram, or a PSYOP designed to classically condition our minds in preparation for an “official” UFO disclosure.

Professor: "Aliens bestaan en zien eruit als mensen"
Professor: “Aliens bestaan en zien eruit als mensen”
Je ziet ze in films vaak als groene mannetjes met lange armen en grote ogen. Aliens uit de ruimte spreken al decennialang tot de verbeelding.
In een nieuw boek van een gerenommeerde bioloog valt te lezen dat aliens waarschijnlijk heel erg op mensen lijken. Professor Simon Conway Morris heeft gezegd dat buitenaardsen die op ons lijken op tenminste een aantal aardachtige planeten moeten leven die zijn ontdekt door astronomen.
In zijn nieuwe boek The Runes of Evolution, dat vandaag verschijnt, borduurt hij voort op de convergente evolutie, de evolutie van dezelfde eigenschap bij verschillende groepen die niet duidelijk aan elkaar verwant zijn.
Een bekend voorbeeld is dat vergelijkbare lichaamsvormen worden aangetroffen bij haaien, dolfijnen en ichtyosaurussen, uitgestorven zeereptielen uit het Krijt. Indrukwekkende voorbeelden zijn Afrikaanse en Amerikaanse dieren en planten, die onafhankelijk van elkaar een groot aantal sterk gelijkende eigenschappen en vormen hebben ontwikkeld.
“Ik denk dat intelligent leven in elke bewoonbare zone die niet kookt of bevriest ontstaat, omdat intelligentie convergent is,” zei Conway Morris. “De kans dat er [elders in het heelal] iets evolueert wat lijkt op de mens is erg groot.”
“Gezien het grote aantal potentiële planeten moet er een zeer groot aantal intelligenties zijn die op ons lijken,” ging hij verder. Conway Morris stelde eerder dat aliens lijken op aardbewoners en ledematen, hoofden en lichamen hebben.
In het nieuwe boek claimt hij verder dat op elke aardachtige planeet roofdieren als haaien evolueren, evenals mangroven en paddenstoelen.
Captured Black ‘Flying Saucer’ Hovering Over Stonehenge
Captured Black ‘Flying Saucer’ Hovering Over Stonehenge
Stonehenge is a legendary place to visit in the UK. In fact, it is amongst the best-known attractions around the world. It attracts large numbers of tourists, and each tourist is being drawn to the remarkable layout of the structure and wants to find out more about its history. Aside from the Stonehenge tours, you will not only gain satisfaction, but also makes your travel safe and sound. Unfortunately, Stonehenge is not an exception when it comes to a hotspot for sightings.
The picture captured by a space enthusiast seems to show an unusual object hovering above the stones in Wiltshire days before Summer Solstice. The image was already posted and shared on the UFO Sightings blog along with details about the craft. As David Jacobson claims that the strange flying object was black in color. He estimated the stone to be 20 to 30 feet across. The stone is a common spot for alien or extraterrestrial appearances called “discoid shape,” declassified by the government featuring weird places in the year 2007 and 2009.
There are different theories on Stonehenge. While some people say that it is a place of sun worship or a structure to tell time, others would think that it is a landing site for extraterrestrial life. Some people believe that the incident is related to Mecca for Druids. Nigel Watson is a British UFO investigator and author. As he reviewed the image, he declared Stonehenge as a “magnet” for unexplained activity related to its location on ley lines. These lines are a hypothetical alignment of several places with historical, geographical and paranormal interest.
Despite the fact that there are some fairly convincing ideas out there nobody can be 100% precise regarding why and how the black flying saucer came. Perhaps we will never actually know how or why from such a distance, still, Stonehenge continues to be an incredible spot to experience and possibly someday it will give up its hidden secrets.

Are there any actual "doomsday" asteroids we should be worried about on Asteroid Day 2015?
Donald Davis
It's Asteroid Day 2015, and experts and space agencies around the world want to raise awareness of potentially hazardous objects. NASA has a Near-Earth Object (NEO) Program which tracks asteroids and comets using its Sentry collision monitoring system. With all the chatter about "doomsday" asteroids that could end life as we know it, what are the real odds of such an event?
The easy answer is slim-to-none. There were reports floating around that an asteroid that would hit Earth in September, but said asteroid doesn't exist and NASA has repeatedly debunked those claims. NASA and the European Space Agency have NEO tracking programs that are capable of detecting any threat. Additionally, NASA launched its Grand Asteroid Challenge to discover any possible threats, and there are even private organizations, such as the B612 Foundation, that are hunting these objects.
There are many asteroids that come close to Earth with no impact threat. One asteroid will make a close approach to Earth on July 7 at the safe distance of 3 million miles. Another asteroid, however, will pass much closer that day -- asteroid 2015 HM10 -- at distance of 275,000 miles from Earth. That's just outside of lunar orbit, but you'll probably hear some scary news leading up to it.
If you think asteroids near Earth are uncommon, you'd be quite surprised to see NASA's list of close approaches. July will average just over 1 close approach per day -- with several days seeing two close approaches and July 7 seeing four. Many of these asteroids are millions of miles from Earth and are no threat to humanity.
For actual threats, NASA uses the Palermo Technical Impact Hazard Scale to assess asteroid risks in a way that the public can easily understand in order to avoid confusion. Based on a scale where anything below -2 means no consequences and -2 to 0 requires monitoring, few asteroids are considered a threat. "A Palermo Scale value of -2 indicates that the detected potential impact event is only 1% as likely as a random background event occurring in the intervening years. A value of zero indicates that the single event is just as threatening as the background hazard, and a value of +2 indicates an event that is 100 times more likely than a background impact," NASA explains.
New observations from ESO and ESA have reduced the potential threat of asteroid 2009 FD.
ESO
There are only three asteroids at present that have a Palermo Scale value above -2. Asteroid 2009 FD has the highest cumulative value at -0.40, leaving a 99.74 percent chance that it will miss Earth in 2185. There are four other times that 2009 FD could be on a collision course with Earth. The year 2190 poses the second-highest impact risk, with a 99.973 percent chance it will miss Earth.
The approximately 490 meter (1,607 foot) 1099 Bennu is the second-largest risk, but its Palermo Scale value is -1.71, meaning there's a 1 in 2,700 chance that it could hit Earth.
This sequence of images show the asteroid 1950 DA as it rotates over a 48-minute period on March 4, 2001. S. Ostro (NASA/JPL)
In terms of really scary asteroids, there's 1950 DA which is approximately 1.3 kilometers (4,265 feet) in diameter. The threat from this large asteroid is minimal, with a -1.88 value on the Palermo Scale for a possible impact in 2880.
Remember UFOs? Young people might not believe it—but there was a time when claiming to have been abducted by aliens was all the rage among hillbillies, crackpots and anyone desperately trying to explain away a suspicious bum injury.
It’s the granddaddy of conspiracy theories: that, for well over half a century, governments have covered up the “fact” that extraterrestrial beings have visited us aboard a wide range of spaceships, each blurrier than the last.
Some still want to believe. This month, the Disclosure Canada Tour visited four major cities to blow the lid off the “truth embargo on the extraterrestrial presence issue.” A sextet of nerdlingers charged 50 bucks a seat to discuss “Earth’s cosmic Watergate” before an audience of many presumed virgins.
The big draw among tour participants was Paul Hellyer. Now 91, Hellyer is a former minister of defence under Lester Pearson, the longest-serving member of the Privy Council and, more recently, a crazy person. He claims to have seen a UFO a few years ago near his cottage, noting, “It looked just like a star.” So far as anyone can remember, this marks the first time a UFO witness has made a claim—and provided the obvious explanation for what he really saw—in the same sentence.
(FYI, Hellyer also believes much of the world is secretly governed by an elite cabal. If he can just figure out how Lee Harvey Oswald faked the moon landing, the guy is a cinch to win Conspiracy Yahtzee.)
The movie-style trailer for the Disclosure Tour is worth a watch. Over some wicked guitar licks, the six “big-name” speakers at the event are introduced in freeze-frame—their surnames appearing dramatically on screen in block letters. The message? These guys are exactly like those bad-asses from The Expendables, but with more eczema and delusions.
The highlight comes halfway through. Two men are driving. We view them from the back seat—possibly for drama-based reasons; more likely because no one associated with this production can afford a GoPro. One guy speculates about other dimensions, then says: “The answer to those questions—just by the very fact we can ask these questions—is evidence that there must be some sort of answer out there about any number of those questions.” Congratulations, hero: In a single sentence, you managed to make less sense than the final two seasons of The X-Files.
Still, the tour represented a throwback to a time when conspiracy theorists were agreeably eccentric, unfamiliar with the sort of casual cruelty later displayed by 9/11 and Sandy Hook “truthers.” In a way, these UFO obsessives are even to be admired: They have devoted their life’s work to bravely ignoring every piece of evidence that their life’s work is really dumb.
To cite just two obvious points:
1. In the age of smartphones, the existence of flying saucers ought to be better documented by now than any other phenomenon, up to, and including, double rainbows and drunken skateboard fails. Let’s face it: If UFOs were real, Google would already be mapping their interiors. Click left to visit the probe-a-torium! And we’d all be watching reality shows in which Jillian Michaels humiliates our new reptile overlord into getting back in shape after binge-eating the bearded hermits of North Dakota.
2. Governments today would have zero interest in concealing the truth about aliens. In fact, the confirmed presence of extraterrestrials would give Barack Obama the biggest boost of his presidency. The opportunity to greet and/or explode alien species? History would surely give him a mulligan on his foreign-policy missteps if he were to ace interplanetary relations. Think about it: the first black President and the guy who ushered in an era of peace and partnership with the slug zombies of Zorgan 4? Good luck topping that, Hillary.
Here in Canada, meanwhile, it’s a safe bet that Stephen Harper would embrace the opportunity to greet an interstellar visitor—with a series of attack ads. Ragamon the Unquenchable purports to be a murderous, amorphous shape-shifter—but he’s just not up to the job of planetary genocide.
On the bright side, Harper could also be counted on to fast-track new legislation. Within weeks, Canadian parents would be entitled to a $500 tax credit for each child who spends more than two months of the year enslaved in an alien work camp.

As regular visitors to this page will know I had the privilege of making a lengthy research trip across the northern states of the US in September/October with leading catastrophist investigator Randall Carlson. The video linked here is the first of a series from our research trip that we will be releasing. I made the trip in order to learn from Randall and I am pleased that these videos will allow many others to learn and benefit from his extensive, hard-won knowledge as well. Randall is a brilliant teacher and as we travelled through the scablands and the coulees together, and stood above Wallula Gap — ‘the gathering of the waters’ featured here — he opened my eyes to the extent of the catastrophic flooding that afflicted North America at the end of the last Ice Age. The old model of multiple fillings and emptyings of Glacial Lake Missoula simply cannot account for the scale of the damage. The new evidence for a comet impact on the North American ice sheet, which I will be presenting in ‘Magicians of the Gods’, the sequel I am now writing to ‘Fingerprints of the Gods’, is the answer and opens a completely new window on the much wider mystery that has been the focus of my attentions for the last 25 years — the mystery of earth’s lost civilisation.

THE FINGERPRINT OF A GLOBAL CATACLYSM 12,800 YEARS AGO
The graphic shows the vast swathe of our planet that geologists call the Younger Dryas Boundary Field. Across this huge “fingerprint” spanning North America, Central America, parts of South America and most of Europe, the tell-tale traces of multiple impacts by the fragments of a giant comet have been found. Some of these fragments, were TWO KILOMETRES or more in diameter and they hit the earth like a blast from a cosmic scatter-gun around 12,800 years ago.
traces of multiple impacts by the fragments of a giant comet have been found. Some of these fragments, were TWO KILOMETRES or more in diameter and they hit the earth like a blast from a cosmic scatter-gun around 12,800 years ago.
This was near the end of the last Ice Age, from which our world had been emerging into a pleasant warming phase, but the impacts set in train a kind of “nuclear winter” and plunged the planet back into a period of deep cold and darkness that lasted until around 11,500 years ago. It is this period of extreme cold that is referred to as the Younger Dryas (after a characteristic Alpine tundra wildflower, Dryas octopetala) but it is only now, with conclusive evidence of the comet impact, that we can be sure what caused it. For the past seven years academics have been involved in such an intense dispute about whether or not a comet impact actually occurred 12,800 years ago that the implications of what it might have meant for the story of civilization have not yet been considered at all. But every attempt to refute the impact evidence has in turn been refuted and the case for the Younger Dryas comet is now so compelling that it is time to widen the debate.

“I think you should be aware about the work of Randall Carlson. He is one of the great unsung geniuses who is revealing to us the truth about our past and its been my privilege to spend the last 10 days traveling across the cataclysm fields of the northwest of America, looking through his eyes at the effects of this terrible cometary disaster.” – Graham Hancock
The result was a global disaster that lasted for 1,300 years. It is, I believe, the “smoking gun” that made us a species with amnesia and wiped out almost all traces of a former high civilisation of prehistoric antiquity. But there were survivors, who preserved at least some of the knowledge of the civilization that had been destroyed with the intention of transmitting it to future generations, so it is not an accident that the first traces of the re-emergence of civilization, in the form of the earliest known megalithic architecture and the re-promulgation of agricultural skills, occur at Gobekli Tepe in Turkey 11,500 years ago — a date that coincides exactly with the end of the Younger Dryas and the return to a more congenial global environment.
Everything we have been taught about the origins of civilization occurs AFTER 11,500 years ago — in other words AFTER the radical punctuation mark of the Younger Dryas. It is what happened before that we desperately need to recover. These are amongst the mysteries that I am exploring in “Magicians of the Gods”, the book that I have been researching for the past three years and am now in the midst of writing. Here is a lecture by Graham Hancock presenting on his recent investigations in preparation for Magicians of the Gods, the highly anticipated sequel to Fingerprints of the Gods: The Evidence for Earth’s Lost Civilization.
Forget little green men – aliens will look like humans, says Cambridge University evolution expert
Forget little green men – aliens will look like humans, says Cambridge University evolution expert
The author said extra-terrestrials that resemble human beings should have evolved on some of the many Earth-like planets that have been discovered
They are often portrayed on screen as little green men with elongated limbs and saucer-like eyes.
From E.T to the X-Files, aliens from outer space have captured our imagination for decades.
Yet a new book from a leading evolutionary biologist argues that if they exist and we ever encountered them, they would look very similar to us.
Professor Simon Conway Morris said extra-terrestrials that resemble human beings should have evolved on at least some of the many Earth-like planets that have been discovered by astronomers.
In his new book published on 2 July, The Runes of Evolution, the University of Cambridge academic builds on the principle of convergent evolution – that different species will independently evolve similar features, with the comparison of the camera eye of an octopus and a human eye a favourite example – and argues it will not just took place on Earth.
The titular alien character from 2011's 'Paul' (Universal Pictures)
“An area of biology which is becoming popular, perhaps too popular, that the possibility evolution is becoming much more predictable than people thought,” he told TheIndependent. “The book is really trying to persuade the world that evolutionary convergence is completely ubiquitous. Wherever you look you see it.
“The theme is to try and drive the reader, gently of course, into the possibility that the things which we regard as most important, ie cognitive sophistication, large brains, intelligence, tool making, are also convergent. Therefore, in principle, other Earth-like planets should very much end up with the same sort of arrangement.”
Professor Conway Morris, a Fellow at St John’s College, said it follows that plant and animal life on other planets able to support life would also look similar to Earth’s.
He said: “Certainly it’s not the case that every Earth-like planet will have life let alone humanoids. But if you want a sophisticated plant it will look awfully like a flower. If you want a fly there’s only a few ways you can do that. If you want to swim, like a shark, there’s only a few ways you can do that. If you want to invent warm-bloodedness, like birds and mammals, there’s only a few ways to do that.
“The whole business of extra-terrestrial life, Kepler [the most Earth-like planet ever discovered], the search for extra solar planets, and of course the various missions to Mars. This is all going along at such a pace at the moment we can be reasonably sure [any current ideas] might be open to revision in a few years.”
His theory leads on to Enrico Fermi’s famous paradox – why, if aliens do exist, have they not made contact. He admits his book goes “off-piste for a bit of fun” in the last chapter when dealing with this problem.

Professor Conway Morris said: “Fermi’s paradox seems to be coming rather sharply into focus. If I’m on the right track then the likelihood of intelligence is evolving and actively engaging in some sort of transgalatic expeditions doesn’t seem to be completely beyond the realm of possibility.
“What Fermi didn’t know when he asked that famous question was that the number of Earth-like planets is absolutely gigantic now. More problematic is that many of these solar systems far, far pre-date our solar system. They would have, in principle, a major head start of hundreds of millions, if not billions, of years.
“The problem is exceedingly acute: we shouldn’t be alone but, famous last words, all the evidence suggests we are. Maybe [aliens] are hiding, the Arthur C Clarke idea, or as Stephen Baxter mischievously suggested we live in a virtual world. I don’t honestly know. My suspicion is we have only begun to scratch at the surface of reality, for want of a better word.”
Professor Conway Morris said one of the main themes of his new book was his desire to “re-energise people and get their sense of curiosity running again”. Convergence is demonstrable at every point of evolutionary history, he argues, from early cells, through to the emergence of tissues, nervous systems, limbs and the ability to make tools.
He said: “There is a growing interest in convergent evolution but I’m always willing to push it as far as I can. I’ll always say ‘show me anything which has only evolved once’ and I’ll try and jump up and say ‘no I can give you another example’.
“Convergence is ubiquitous and if you think complex things are difficult to make, well, with great respect, think again.”
