Discover the “X-Factor” of NASA’s Webb Telescope in “Behind the Webb” Video
Discover the “X-Factor” of NASA’s Webb Telescope in “Behind the Webb” Video
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray observatory have something in common: a huge test chamber used to simulate the hazards of space and the distant glow of starlight. Viewers can learn about this mysterious chamber and its history in “X-Factor,” a new video in the “Behind the Webb” series. The video takes viewers behind the scenes to understand more about the Webb telescope and how it compares with other NASA observatories.
The “X-Factor” episode is timed to coincide with the Chandra 15 year anniversary, as the satellite was launched on July 23, 1999. Mary Estacion of the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Md. hosts the series.
Estacion interviewed Dr. Martin C. Weisskopf, project scientist for NASA’s Chandra X-ray observatory and Chief Scientist for X-ray Astronomy in the Space Sciences Department at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
Dr. Weisskopf explains how the Webb, Hubble and Chandra observatories look at different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum (light at various different energies). The Chandra observatory collects x-rays, very energetic particles of light. The Hubble Space Telescope operates in a different part of the spectrum looking at visible light and the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope will operate in near and mid-infrared light.
The vacuum chamber, located at the X-ray and Cryogenic Test Facility or XRCF at NASA Marshall is the “X-factor” that ties the Webb telescope and Chandra together. The Chandra X-Ray Observatory was tested there in the 1990s and the chamber was used to test the Webb telescope’s mirrors from 2008 to 2011.
“Methods of testing Chandra and Webb telescope mirrors are actually quite different, but each has significant technical challenges – and that’s what makes working at XRCF interesting,” said Jeff Kegley, the NASA Marshall test facility’s manager. “We are really proud to have been able to contribute to these two amazing observatories.”
One of the mysteries of the testing chamber is a long tube that is connected to the building that houses it. The tube spans the length of almost six football fields. Weisskopf explained the long tube was used to separate the X-ray source from the Chandra telescope by a long distance, simulating distant sources like stars. Testing the Webb telescope demands a similar beam of light, but uses a more compact optical design to simulate a distant star.
The tube remains connected for any future mission that may look at the X-ray emission from astronomical objects.
Webb is an international project led by NASA with its partners the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency.
The 3 minute and 7 second video was produced at STScI. The “Behind the Webb” video series is available in HQ, large and small Quicktime formats, HD, Large and Small WMV formats, and HD, Large and Small Xvid formats.
WETENSCHAPDe volle maan in september wordt tegelijk de lichtste en de donkerste van het jaar. Op 28 september is er immers niet alleen een zogenoemde supermaan te zien, maar ook een totale eclips, gevolgd door een bloedmaan. Het is al de vierde keer dat zoiets gebeurt sinds april vorig jaar, wat volgens sommigen een teken is van de naderende apocalyps.
Op 28 september staat de maan extra dicht bij de aarde, wat leidt tot een zogenoemde supermaan. Omdat ze zo dichtbij is, zal de maan extra fel oplichten. Kort daarna begint ze echter te verdwijnen om uiteindelijk volledig verduisterd te worden door de aarde, die tussen de zon en de maan komt te staan.
Tijdens de eclips zal de maan stilaan een rode kleur krijgen, een gevolg van de kromming van de zonnestralen rond de aarde. Zo'n rode maan wordt ook wel een bloedmaan genoemd.
Het wordt al de vierde bloedmaan sinds april 2014, volgens aanhangers van de zogenoemde 'Bloedmaanprofetie' een voorteken van het einde der tijden. Sommigen zijn er ook van overtuigd dat de bijzondere 'superbloedmaan' zal leiden tot springtij en overstromingen. Ze beweren ook dat de afwijkende getijden voor aardbevingen en vulkaanuitbarstingen zullen zorgen.
Volgens het Britse agentschap voor getijden en zeeniveau zal de vloed misschien iets hoger zijn dan normaal, maar zeker niet een paar centimeter hoger dan de hoogste getijden van de voorbije twintig jaar.
Het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartbureau NASA heeft met klem ontkend dat er tussen 15 en 28 september een asteroïde zou inslaan op onze planeet.
Op het internet circuleren er talrijke berichten over een inslag nabij Puerto Rico die vernietigende gevolgen kan hebben.
Maar volgens manager Paul Chodas van de bevoegde dienst bij de NASA is er geen enkele wetenschappelijke basis en geen enkele aanwijzing dat een asteroïde of een ander kosmisch object op Aarde zou inslaan in de geciteerde periode en ook niet in de afzienbare toekomst. Bij alle bekende potentieel gevaarlijke asteroïden is er minder dan 0,01 procent kans op een impact in de komende tien jaar.
Nog volgens Chodas zou een object, dat de helft van de "voorspelde" schade kan veroorzaken in september, al moeten zijn opgemerkt.

Woman Catches UFO Formation Over Corn Field In Memphis, Mississippi, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Woman Catches UFO Formation Over Corn Field In Memphis, Mississippi, Video, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: Feb 26, 2015 but reported in Aug. Location of sighting: Lewisburg, Mississippi, USA Source: MUFON
The one thing in this video that is proof that this is 100% real, is a fact that has been verified in hundreds of past UFO sightings. Its the tiny drone orbs that orbit the UFOs. These are guidance and defense orbs. They protect the main ship and act like nerve endings in a finger, as an early warning system. I added light and circled the orbs in the screenshot from the video. Take a screenshot anywhere and add light to it to view these tiny guidance orbs. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com
Below screenshot has not been altered.
Eyewitness states: I am a 15+ year ufologist in the Memphis Metro area, & although I have seen things I can't explain, this is the first one worthy of reporting. For this particular incident, I've been seeing bright lights in that same location for several nights in the last week, but it was after I went to bed and not compelling enough to warrant running outside. It snowed yesterday, so it made it easier to see last night, and the craft was much closer, much brighter, and very visible. I ran outside at 12:46AM CST and began filming. It was hovering very low over an area with corn fields. I observed it hovering for about 20 minutes, but it was too cold outside and I ran out straight from bed with no shoes on in the snow, therefore, I could only film for a short time. After about 20 minutes it seemed to just vanish...no flight path was observed...just hovering and pulsating lights that appeared to have a red glow at times. It appeared to be one very large triangular aircraft, and it was hovering so low that it had a 3-D effect when viewing. There were times when it appeared to have ejected smaller orb lights, but that is unclear. It was difficult to tell from my vantage point whether it was part of the larger craft, or additional smaller craft.

British Think Tank Talks About Overthrowing a Martian Government
British Think Tank Talks About Overthrowing a Martian Government
Martian Colony by British Interplanetary Society
The British Interplanetary Society (BIS) was being founded in Liverpool by Philip E. Cleator in 1933. It is known as the oldest space advocacy organization in the world. Its aim is to promote and support space exploration and Astronautics exclusively. Last month, the British Interplanetary Society met last month to thrash out how an individual overthrows a Martian government. The members also tackle about other relevant matters. From the statements of the BBC, there are two short blocks from the Britain’s security service in London headquarters, MI6. The headquarter is a group of thirty men and women plotting to conquer the government.
Even though they make it comprehensible, the British government is not they are looking to overthrow, they stressed out that it will be a tyrannical alien administration in the future. Speaking about the task at hand, the BIS is far-reaching about it. In fact, the meeting was the 3rd annual Symposium on Extraterrestrial Liberty. It started in 2013, and it is a group of conferences to explore the ideas of governance and freedom for human space settlements in the future. “What is Freedom Beyond the Earth?” is the first conference. It is about the idea of freedom in space. The second event called “Human Governance beyond the Earth,” is about extraterrestrial governance, freedom of press and speech in the extraterrestrial environment, economic and political systems to extend liberty into the space, constitutions, policing and legal systems in space.
The third is the “Dissent, Revolution and Liberty in Space,” which addresses the inquiries of the ways to prevent the severe extraterrestrial environment promoting the coming out of a coercive security apparatus. Charles Cockell is a professor of Astrobiology told the BBC that they will be discussing the consequences if what happens if a person did not appreciate the government. The group of thinkers collaborated to ponder these inquiries includes engineers, scientists, philosophers, writers and social scientists.
Filer’s Files #35 – 2015 Orange Orbs and Triangles - PART I

Filer’s Files #35 – 2015 Orange Orbs and Triangles - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: MUFON’S Project Orange, Astronomers Admit to Triangles Traversing the Moon, Neptune like Planets May Have Life, Actor Lee Marvin Wondering Star, The Black Knight Satellite, and Magicians of the Gods
Air Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas, Wyoming, and Washington..
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in Australia, Canada, Columbia, Portugal, Romania, Russia, England and Scotland in the United Kingdom, and Vietnam.
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.

MUFON’S PROJECT ORANGE
The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) has undertaken a two-year study of the Orange Orb phenomenon called Project Orange. Under the direction of MUFON Utah State Director Erica Lukes, the endeavor seeks to pull the veil of mystery from the nocturnal lights by applying MUFON’S “Scientific Method” of analysis to the subject….Joining Erica are two MUFON Field Investigators and orb experts – Terry Ray of Pennsylvania and Bob Spearing of New Jersey. Terry is best known for his 2014 book on the subject entitled “The Complete Story of the Worldwide Invasion of the Orange Orbs.” Among Terry’s findings are possible underwater bases for these objects off our Atlantic Coast and in the depths of the Great Lakes.
The first part of the study will cover a one week period of July 4th sightings from 2009 to 2015. July 4th is the heaviest sighting day for Orange Orbs. Many parameters will be analyzed including wind direction vs. orb direction (Chinese lanterns are often mistaken for orbs but lanterns cannot fly into the wind.) Clusters of sightings in certain years and in specific geographic regions will be analyzed in a statistical survey. For example, orbs avoid Washington D.C. airspace but massive clusters of orbs are frequently sighted off the south shore of Long Island, NY.
The study will also investigate blue daytime orbs. These orbs have been photographed en masse this year. The photos clearly show semi-transparent blue orbs with several smaller white orbs attached either to the mother orb or in close orbit around the larger orb.
The Great Lakes region will be analyzed in depth to see if there are underwater bases there especially under Lake Erie.
Finally, a comprehensive photographic and video analysis of the best orb photos and videos from the MUFON Archives will be undertaken.
Join Bob Spearing and Terry Ray talking about the orb phenomenon this Friday night at 8:00 PM, Eastern Time with internet radio host and project manager Erica Lukes on WKGRA on Erica’s program UFO Audit.
Astronomers Admit to Triangles Traversing the Moon
When it comes to The Great Taboo, everyone has an angle. Few are as unique as David Marler’s specialization bonanza — “Triangular UFOs: An Estimate of the Situation” — which came out in 2013. Initially intrigued by the 1989-91 Belgian UFO wave, Mailer plunged headlong into the controversy following the Southern Illinois sightings of January 5, 2000, which became famous for among other things, igniting radio chatter among multiple police departments? His family also has a riveting personal back-story that no doubt greased the skids for his curiosity. Anyhow, recently at a Florida MUFON meeting in Valrico, Marler made his pitch for a centralized and accessible digital database. As he informed those, who suspect classified military technology is the culprit may be in for an ice bath.
Marler states the first documented discussion of observable triangles appears in an 1882 edition of Scientific American. More than a century ago, astronomers claimed to have detected “triangular luminous appearances” traversing the glow of the moon. Marler fleshes out additional 19th century references, as well as 20th-century triangle encounters observed generations before stealth designs were factored into the U.S. arsenal. Almost as amazing as the voluminous compendium of incidents is the mind’s-eye image of Marler’ sifting through reams of ancient newspaper, magazine, and journal articles to stitch these narrative threads together.
Some interesting reports follow:
An International News Service piece about 300 West Berliners reporting triangles above the divided city in 1953; Texas sheriff’s deputies reconstructing a highway game of cat-and-mouse for the Houston Chronicle in 1965; Early 1973, multiple sightings occurred around Piedmont, Missouri where my boss Bob Woods from Scott Air Force Base Military Airlift Command Intelligence would go to investigate, law enforcement agents relating tales of a “pyramidal UFO” to the Memphis Press-Scimitar in 1977; multiple witnesses, including a named FAA air traffic controller, detailing for California’s Auburn Journal how a delta-shaped object followed a major freeway in 1978; “hundreds of residents” from Kansas to Missouri witnessing a triangle event in 1980 and chronicled in Missouri’s Express and News daily; Fort Worth’s, Texas Cross Country News recording how “hundreds of sightings” of triangle- shaped objects erupted across Florida, Georgia, Ohio and Michigan during two days in 1975 — this stuff goes on and on and on. In short, said Marler, “We don’t see an evolution in the technology of triangular UFOs . . . We’re dealing with a tangible phenomenon that’s been around for a long time.” The licensed hypnotherapist offered some broad characteristics about triangle-class UFOs: The overwhelming majority are nocturnal and silent. Landing cases are virtually non-existent. More often than not, they’re seen cruising speeds at below-radar altitudes, but they can rapidly accelerate. They are large, averaging 200-300 feet in length. They can hover and make sideways right-angle turns without banking. They can move in non-aerodynamic fashion, broad edges forward, tapered edges aft.
Superstructures are sometimes observed, as well as shape-shifting properties. In fact, according to unfiltered National UFO Reporting Center surveys, categorically speaking, triangles trail only “lights” in eyewitness volume. In a 2012 listing of configurations, in fact, flying-saucer discs don’t even rate a bronze. “What we need,” Marler said in an appeal for more volunteer investigators, “are more bodies in the field” to gather data. After all, say MUFON officials, a revolution in optical technology with the potential to generate mountains of evidence is right around the corner. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ world UFO photos
Neptune like Planets May Have Life
Researchers with the NASA Astrobiology Institute’s Virtual Planetary Laboratory Lead Team at the University of Washington have described how mini-Neptune planets could become viable for life around M-Dwarf stars. These Planets orbiting close to low-mass stars — easily the most common stars in the universe — are prime targets in the search for extraterrestrial life.
M-dwarfs are cooler than the Sun, meaning any habitable planets around them would have to be much closer to their host star. However, planets in such systems face many hazardous conditions, particularly in the early stages of formation that could make it difficult for life to take hold.
The study, published in the journal Astrobiology, indicates that mini-Neptune’s could potentially migrate into the habitable zones of M-Dwarf stars and become habitable for life, as we know it. Source: [astrobio.net]Credit: NASA
Actor Lee Marvin saw a Wondering Star
Academy Award Winner Best Actor Lee Marvin claims he was born under a wondering star and sings the song in “Paint Your Wagon” that stared Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and Jean Seberg. He was a dedicated angler who apparently saw a UFO while fishing off the coast of Mexico.
My wife knew him and he asked her to go to Spain with him. Fortunately, for me she declined. We always liked him and his song that was a best seller and on the top of the charts in UK and Ireland. He now can be heard on the Amazon ad frequently shown on TV. Stars do not wander but UFOs do.

The Black Knight Satellite
20 Facts about the Black Knight Satellite
This “Artificial Satellite” has caused mayor media interest since the late 1950′s, and it has become one of the most talked about objects in space. First thought to be an Russian spy satellite, the Black Knight satellite has gripped the interest of millions worldwide. Here are some interesting facts about this mysterious object:
According to monitoring agencies around the world, The Black Knight Satellite has been transmitting radio signals for over 50 years now
The USA and Soviet Union have shown particular interest in this “unidentified space object”
Rumors are that it was Nikola Tesla the first man to “intercept” a signal from the Black Knight Satellite in 1899 after building a high-voltage radio device in Colorado Springs.
Since the 1930′s Astronomers worldwide have been reporting strange radio signals which allegedly come from the “Black Knight”.
In 1957, Dr. Luis Corralos of the Communications Ministry in Venezuela photographed it while taking pictures of Sputnik II as it passed over Caracas. The story of the Black Knight made its media debut in the 1940′s when the St. Louis Dispatch and The San Francisco Examiner wrote about the “Satellite” on May 14th 1954. The Time Magazine wrote about the Black Knight Satellite on the seventh of March, 1960.
In 1957, an unknown “object” was seen “shadowing” the Sputnik 1 Spacecraft. According to reports, the “unidentified object” was in Polar orbit in 1957. The United Stated nor the Russians possessed the technology to maintain a spacecraft in Polar Orbit.
The first Polar orbiting satellite was launched in 1960. It is likely the Black Knight is in the category of a observational Satellite from another planet. In the 1960′s the Black Knight satellite was located once again in Polar Orbit. Astronomers and Scientists calculated the objects weight to be over 10 tons which would be at that time the heaviest artificial satellite to orbit our Planet.
The Black Knight’s orbit was unlike any other object orbiting Earth. The Grumman Aircraft Corporation gave much importance to this mysterious “Satellite”, on September 3, 1960, seven months after the satellite was first detected by radar, a tracking camera at Grumman Aircraft Corporation’s Long Island factory took a photograph of the Black Knight satellite . Grumman formed a committee to study the data received from the observations made but nothing was made public.
In 1963, Gordon Cooper was launched into space. On his final orbit, he reported seeing a glowing green object in front of his capsule in the distance
moving towards his Spacecraft. The Muchea tracking station, in Australia, which Cooper reported the object to, picked up this Unidentified object on Radar travelling East to West.
It was the Ham Radio operator who apparently decoded a series of signals received from the Black Knight UFO Satellite and interpreted it as a star-chart centered on the Epsilon Bootes Star System. According to the decoded message, the Black Knightsatellite originated from the Epsilon Bootes Star System 13.000 years ago.
On August 23, 1954 the technology magazine Aviation Week and Space Technology released a story about the Black Knight Satellite that angered the Pentagon who were trying to keep the information secret. NASA has released official images which apparently show the Black Knight Satellite. Thanks to http://www.ancient-code.com/20-facts-black-knight-satellite/
Magicians of the Gods
There is new high-level scientific support for a comet impact 12, 800 calibrated years before the present” that changed the world.
A gigantic cosmic impact occurred, when large fragments of a disintegrating comet hit the North American ice cap about 12,800 years ago, is identified in a forthcoming book “Magicians of the Gods” as the smoking gun that sparked off a global cataclysm of floods and fire in which an advanced civilization of the last Ice Age, hitherto only remembered in ‘myths’, was wiped out.
“Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” (PNAS) the official journal of the United States National Academy of Sciences reports a cosmic impact event at ∼12,800 Cal B.P. formed the Younger Dryas boundary (YDB) layer, containing peak abundances in multiple, high-temperature, impact-related proxies, including spherules, melt glass, and nanodiamonds. A large asteroid may have hit Earth causing worldwide destruction. Bayesian statistical analyses of 354 dates from 23 sedimentary sequences over four continents established a modeled YDB age range of 12,835 Cal B.P. to 12,735 Cal B.P., supporting synchronicity of the YDB layer at high probability of 95%. This range overlaps that of a platinum peak recorded in the Greenland Ice Sheet and of the onset of the Younger Dryas climate episode in six key records, suggesting a causal connection between the impact event and the Younger Dryas. Details are in: phys.org
An 18-member international team of researchers that includes James Kennett, professor of earth science at University of California Santa Barbara, has discovered melt-glass material in a thin layer of sedimentary rock in
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Syria. According to the researchers, the material –– which dates back nearly 13,000 years –– was formed at temperatures of 1,700 to 2,200 degrees Celsius (3,100 to 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit), and is the result of a cosmic body impacting Earth, supporting the theory of an Credit:YDB Research Group extraterrestrial impact.Younger Dryas Boundary (YDB) hypothesis. This episode occurred at or close to the time of major extinction of the North American megafauna, including mammoths and giant ground sloths; early humans, and the disappearance of the prehistoric and widely distributed Clovis culture. The researchers’ findings appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
“These scientists have identified three contemporaneous levels more than 12,000 years ago, on two continents yielding siliceous scoria-like objects (SLO’s),” said H. Richard Lane, program director of National Science Foundation’s Division of Earth Sciences, which funded the research. “SLO’s are indicative of high-energy cosmic airbursts/impacts, bolstering the contention that these events induced the beginning of the Younger Dryas. That time was a major departure in biotic, human and climate history.”
Morphological and geochemical evidence of the melt-glass confirms that the material is not cosmic, volcanic, or of human-made origin. “The very high temperature melt-glass appears identical to that produced in known cosmic
impact events such as Meteor Crater in Arizona, (shown) and the Australasian tektite field,” said Kennett.
“The melt material also matches melt-glass produced by the Trinity nuclear airburst of 1945 in Socorro, New Mexico,” he continued. “The extreme temperatures required are equal to those of an atomic bomb blast, high enough to make sand melt and boil.” The material evidence supporting the YDB cosmic impact hypothesis spans three continents, and covers nearly one-third of the planet, from California to Western Europe, and into the Middle East. The discovery extends the range of evidence into Germany and Syria, the easternmost site yet identified in the northern hemisphere. The researchers have yet to identify a limit to the debris field of the impact.
“Because these three sites in North America and the Middle East are separated by 1,000 to 10,000 kilometers, there were most likely three or more major impact/airburst epicenters for the YDB impact event, likely caused by a swarm of cosmic objects that were fragments of either a meteorite or comet,” said Kennett.
The PNAS paper also presents examples of recent independent research that supports the YDB cosmic impact hypothesis, and supports two independent groups that found melt-glass in the YDB layers in Arizona and Venezuela. “The results strongly refute the assertion of some critics that ‘no one can replicate’ the YDB evidence, or that the materials simply fell from space non-catastrophically,” Kennett noted.
..Microscopic images of grains of melted quartz from YDB cosmic impact layer in SyriaWebsite
He added that the archaeological site in Syria where the melt-glass material was found –– Abu Hureyra, in the Euphrates Valley –– is one of the few sites of its kind that record the transition from nomadic hunter-gatherers to farmer-hunters who live in permanent villages. “Archeologists and anthropologists consider this area the ‘birthplace of agriculture,’ which occurred close to 12,900 years ago,” Kennett said.
“The presence of a thick charcoal layer in the ancient village in Syria indicates a major fire associated with the melt-glass and impact spherules 12,900 years ago,” he continued. “Evidence suggests that the effects on that settlement and its inhabitants would have been severe.”Caves and islands are full of animal and human remains indicating large destructive and flooding events.

Most likely a meteor hit the Earth causing massive floods and severely cold temperatures for an Ice Age that caused much of the Northern Hemisphere to be covered by ice.

Now that we know that an extinction level event occurred in our historical backyard — just 12,800 years ago – an gigantic cosmic impact, when large fragments of a disintegrating comet hit the North American ice cap. History is never going to look quite the same again. It may take some time until the implications of the new scientific findings have been fully taken on board by archaeologists and historians who will, no doubt, continue meanwhile to make the absurd and arrogant claim that a lost civilization ‘just isn’t possible’. “Magicians of the Gods” refute such claims with overwhelming new evidence.
“Magicians of the Gods” is in the final run-up to publication on 10 September in the UK and 10 November in the US and is available for pre-order from all parts of the world through the various links set out on this page:

Filer’s Files #35 – 2015 Orange Orbs and Triangles- PART II
Filer’s Files #35 – 2015 Orange Orbs and Triangles- PART II
Sightings of UFOs in the United States
California Strange
Long Beach — I witnessed a strange light emanating from the moon on August 24,2015, I grabbed my camera and took photos of the moon which captured the light and then I noticed two orbs which appeared behind the moon that moved very quickly in all directions. I figured since the activity was over the ocean, I directed my camera towards Los Angeles and I captured the collection of orange lights over the city. This happened all within an hour. The photos I took were taken seconds apart and capture the orbs motion. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Hollywood— On or around September 13, 2013, at about 2:30 Pm, I went out on my porch to smoke a cigarette and heard the engine of a small plane passing overhead and looked up to see a giant black triangle flying east. The object was flying over five houses from the corner silently. It was no more than eight stories of the ground flying 20 miles per hour. It was rounded at the edges with a bee hive pattern. It wobbled slightly left and right the whole time I saw it. It had no visible windows or openings. I called for my girlfriend to come and see it but she didn’t have her glasses to see it. A small plane that originally made me notice the object followed the object. at about 5 to 10 yards. Then it moved to the side of it, then a little above and to the left of it.
I could see take pilot good enough to see his head movements but not his features. The objects did not land at the nearby Burbank Airport. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Six Saucers
Spring Hill — I was in my backyard, taking random pictures of the night sky on May 10, 2015, with my Canon Power Shot SX50. I shot 12 images per second rapid fire in a very dark sky. I did not see anything but when I viewed the pictures on the PC the images showed six lights stacked on top of each other. One picture of six Sauces stacked on top of each other showed one flying off. WOW. Thanks to Lorry Stargaazer
Georgia Craft
On the morning of July 11, 2015, my wife had mentioned that she had an awful nightmare; she felt that someone was in the bedroom with her and our grandson but she could not get away. She was screaming and struggling but to no avail. My grandson said that he heard her, woke up, and touched her. She became quite frightened. The next day checked my game camera on the back deck that took a 10 second video every 10 minutes. The videotape showed some clips that seem to be connected to the nightmare. The clips on the 11th show a beam of pulsating light coming from the sky entering into their bedroom and a strange winged object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Lights
Edinburgh– This is a picture of UFO taken on July 23, 2015, at 8:57 pm.
Pamela writes, I grew up in Springfield Illinois. My dad always told me about when us kids were little about all the things him and the neighbors would see in the sky. When I was 17, I was looking out my bedroom window I saw a huge round object with different colored lights hovering above Sears, I watched it until it disappeared. Thanks to. Pamela Stark
Aurora — My 10 year old and I were driving in town on August 22, 2015, when she said, “Look Look“! I looked up and a bright glowing light was moving northwest past us and up. I pulled the car over. She said,“Look”! Again and I saw a second glowing light rising and moving NW above the buildings. I videoed it as it quickly moved past us, over downtown Aurora, heading north. It was not an aircraft, and it was too close, we saw only light, no outlines of an object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Indiana Boomerang
Cass County— I was walking out the house on August 6, 2015, and I look up and see a bright light shaped like a triangle hovering maybe no more than 1000 feet off the ground. I didn’t really have to think much about what it was cause there was nothing else in the sky. I stopped for a couple minutes and just watched it hovering and slowly moving away. I quickly took out my phone and took some pictures of it. I went in my friend’s house and when we came out to look it was gone. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mississippi Orb
Biloxi — While I was on break at work on August 20, 2015, I was texting a friend and told him I was watching a dolphin in the Gulf of Mexico.
I snapped this photo scrolled up to the clouds and zoomed in and found something unusual. Coming out of the center cloud is a strange object. I did not see these objects until after the picture was taken, Thanks to MUFON CMS
New York Lights
New York City – Alex called to report she was walking south on Wall Street and viewed a large gray triangle moving to her right/south on August 14, 2015 at 7:30 PM. It was bigger than any aircraft and flying at a high altitude. Thanks to Alex F.
New York – I looked out the window to check if it was raining on August 22, 2015, and was surprised to see lights hovering above nearby buildings as shown. Object made no noise at all. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Lights
..
Athens — While taking a lunch break in my parked car on August 25, 2015, and took several shots of the puffy clouds through the sunroof. It was not until I returned to my office 30 minutes later, that I noticed a green reflection on one of the photos.
I am not sure what this is, but it is certainly interesting when I zoomed in around 12:25 PM. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Disk
Corvallis– On August 16, 2015, I found an unknown object in a photo I took at Chip Ross Park. I never saw it with my own eyes. I noticed it while going through some photos I took over the weekend and thought it was strange.
Note: The object is in focus. I don’t think that the object is a bird or insect. Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw
Lebanon –. My husband and I were out for a run on August 19, 2015, as the sun was going down and there was a little light left at 8:45 pm. I saw a bright light in the sky moving fast and thought it was odd, since it was so bright and there were no other stars. I noticed it was moving fast, changed directions multiple times, hovered then flashed white to red 3x and once flashed bluish-green before turning to red completely. Then the light descended quickly behind a tree. A second light was spotted maneuvering, but was lost behind the tree line. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Pennsylvania Object
Bristol— I was driving on Route 13 heading south to Burlington Bristol Bridge on July 7, 2015 at 8:02 PM. I observed a cool looking sunset with strange looking clouds that caught my eye. I snapped three pictures and proceeded on my journey to New Jersey. Later, I looked at my images and could see a dark formation move to the right part of sky, and then in picture three it completely disappears. Thanks to MUFON CMS
South Dakota Domes
Buffalo Chip — I was heading to Sturgis and saw what I thought were big dome style green houses on August 14, 2015. I was probably four miles away when I saw them move. I turned around and took pictures, but they did not look the same as they did with just my eyes. Clarity was not as good. I was using an iPhone 5c and my pictures always look great, but these just were not working that well. When I returned about a half hour later, it was gone. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Triangle of Lights
Oilton — I was working in the oilfield on the graveyard shift and saw this big single light coming towards me. I only had my I Pad; and by the time, I went to retrieve it there were two lights and then three.
It started to circle the gas well and hovered for a short while. Then all of a sudden between the front and the middle of this object, it started shooting this brown stuff. I don’t know what it was. Then it disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington UFO
Cougar— We were having a beer near Pine Creek campground by Yacolt when we saw a Ufo emitting light. It flew close to us just across the river on March 31, 2015. It then ascended away quickly. The last picture submitted is the first, with the light. The picture order is the UFO ascending away from us. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Wyoming Cylinder
Jackson— Terri reports three of us women were riding in the Jedidiah Wilderness, going to Granite Lake on August 5, 2015. I took images about 12:30 PM and when I viewed the SD card, I was surprised to see this cylinder because we never saw it or heard any planes. The area we were riding in is west of the Grand Teton.
We are very surprised about this and looking for an explanation. I have sent four photos, two leading up to the gorgeous mountain we were approaching, and two with the illuminated object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia Disc
Brisbane– I looked out the window and saw what looked like an aircraft on August 21, 2015. I’ve seen UFO’s in this direction before so I watched closely. The object was a flat disc with multicolored lights flashing around it. I heard a deep rumble and kept watching, the UFO started moving backwards, stopped, started moving up, and I lost sight of it in a few seconds.
I feel someone is watching me as I write this 10 minutes after the event. Another time a yellow disc hovered over my house for 20 minutes. I called the local Air Force base and they said a blip was showing on the radar and then disappeared less than 60 seconds into the call. Sorry if the drawing is unclear, I just had to do a quick sketch and I am no artist.
Canada 30 Orbs
Stoney Creek/Hamilton Ontario — I have witnessed strange lights happening throughout the month of August 2015. In particular, on the night of August 22, 2015 around 8 pm, I was walking the dog when I noticed two strange lights glowing in the sky coming towards me. As I stopped walking to observe the lights, coincidentally the lights stopped moving as well. Once I begin walking towards the lights, they started to move away in the opposite direction from me. I continued my walk and minutes later, both lights reappeared. When I reached the school park, I approached a group of teenagers and brought their attention to the 20 or 30 orbs at my eye level over Stoney Creek.
The lights were in a cluster hovering until they flew around making patterns in the sky. At one point, only three lights were visible forming a triangle. The lights would then all reappear in a DNA like structure. The orbs were trying to communicate by patterns and shapes. The lights disappeared and reappeared reforming shapes. Three additional orbs rose as I tried phoning but the connection was bad or out. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Columbia Disc
Medellín — I like to look at the sky because I have been having Ufo sightings for about ten years, so I watch the sky continuously. I did not know about MUFON so this is a report is from September 16, 2012. I have wanted to report several sightings that I have had. It happened at 9 PM, in the south part of the city. I observed a shining disc shaped spaceship with a dome with four lights. I called to my sister who confirmed my sighting. A red star moved slowly towards the first object and the disc seemed to absorb it. An hour later, it vanished slowly. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Portugal Cylinder
Funchal-Ilha Madeira — As I watched the sunset, I took photos on January 31, 2015. I ended up taking a photo of an unidentified flying cylinder shaped object. The event took place on Madeira Island, in an area without air traffic. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Romania Light
Bucharest — I was in my room on August 18, 1986, working on my computer when I detected an out of place light out the window. It was rather bright or close or both, but I did not think to start recording immediately. It was an out of place noticeable light of a peculiar color that was travelling slowly. Then it accelerated on a gently curved flight path at a constant altitude. I was puzzled and excited as it disappeared behind the trees. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Russia Disc
My mother was on a river cruise vacation in Russia taking pics that she sent for free internationally on August 5, 2015. I received a text with a picture that was taken on her balcony, outside of her cabin, without any window or glass in front of her. I immediately noticed the silver/metallic disk that looks like a classic silver/spinning disk. The next day she sent a blurry picture of a purple circle surrounded by several metallic/light reflecting objects. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Lights
Coventry — I went for a short walk around 8:15 pm behind Heronbank at the University of Warwick on August 21, 2015. I happened to look up at this glowing (because of the flame) cylindrical type object in the sky, steering upwards in a somewhat fast motion. I was able to take a picture of it. But, when I started taking a video, my phones ‘and battery died. It was not a shooting star. It could be a rocket launch though. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Stowmarket – I was making coffee close to 10 pm on July 22, 2015, and looked out the kitchen window and saw a light in front on me. It was glowing orange/yellow and so I rushed to get my camera and took two pictures. The light changed from a long shape then bended and glowing. I pop outside to see a glowing shape then it goes dark. So I go back in and 30 minutes later I hear a helicopter fly over at 10:20 pm from RAF bases in the area, but not this late. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/Scotland Lights
Dornoch — My wife and I were holidaying at “Grannies Heilan Hame” at Embo on May 31, 2015, when we noticed a light travel east across the sky. I was trying to get a clear picture of the moon, swept across, and took a picture of the moving “star.” Back in our caravan, I downloaded the picture and on zooming in, I saw numerous colored worm-like objects. It certainly was not a refraction of light from the moon or morphing the pictures. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com

PHYSICISTS DISCOVER ‘CLEAREST EVIDENCE YET’ THAT THE UNIVERSE IS A HOLOGRAM
PHYSICISTS DISCOVER ‘CLEAREST EVIDENCE YET’ THAT THE UNIVERSE IS A HOLOGRAM
A team of physicists have provided what has been described by the journal Nature as the “clearest evidence yet” that our universe is a hologram.
The new research could help reconcile one of modern physics’ most enduring problems : the apparent inconsistencies between the different models of the universe as explained by quantum physics and Einstein’s theory of gravity.
The two new scientific papers are the culmination of years’ work led by Yoshifumi Hyakutake of Ibaraki University in Japan, and deal with hypothetical calculations of the energies of black holes in different universes.
The idea of the universe existing as a ‘hologram’ doesn’t refer to a Matrix-like illusion, but the theory that the three dimensions we perceive are actually just“painted” onto the cosmological horizon – the boundary of the known universe.
If this sounds paradoxical, try to imagine a holographic picture that changes as you move it. Although the picture is two dimensional, observing it from different locations creates the illusion that it is 3D.
This model of the universe helps explain some inconsistencies between general relativity (Einstein’s theory) and quantum physics. Although Einstein’s work underpins much of modern physics, at certain extremes (such as in the middle of a black hole) the principles he outlined break down and the laws of quantum physics take over.
The traditional method of reconciling these two models has come from the 1997 work of theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena, whose ideas built upon string theory.
This is one of the most well respected ‘theories of everything’ (Stephen Hawking is a fan) and it posits that one-dimensional vibrating objects known as ‘strings’ are the elementary particles of the universe.
Maldacena has welcomed the new research by Hyakutake and his team, telling the journal Nature that the findings are “an interesting way to test many ideas in quantum gravity and string theory.”
Leonard Susskind, a theoretical physicist regarded as one of the fathers of string theory, added that the work by the Japanese team “numerically confirmed, perhaps for the first time, something we were fairly sure had to be true, but was still a conjecture.”
NASA Brings Scientists & Theologians Together To Prepare World For Extraterrestrial Contact
NASA Brings Scientists & Theologians Together To Prepare World For Extraterrestrial Contact
A couple of months ago top US astronomers gathered in front of congress to let them know that extraterrestrial life exists without question. Their main argument was the size of the universe, emphasizing that there are trillions of stars out there, with one in every five most likely harboring an Earth-like planet. It’s also important to keep in mind that planets do not have to be “Earth-like” in order to harbor life. You can read more about that story here.
“The number of habitable worlds in our galaxy is certainly in the tens of billions, minimum, and we haven’t even talked about the moons. And the number of galaxies we can see, other than our own, is about 100 billion.” – Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer at California’s SETI Institute
This time, NASA and the Library of Congress have teamed up bringing together scientists, theologians, philosophers and historians from around the globe for a two day symposium in order to discuss how to prepare the world for extraterrestrial contact, whether it be microbial organisms or intelligent beings.
“We’re looking at all scenarios about finding life. If you find microbes, that’s one thing. If you find intelligence, it’s another. And if they communicate, it’s something else, and depending on what they say, it’s something else! The idea is not to wait until we make a discovery, but to try and prepare the public for what the implications might be when such a discovery is made. I think the reason that NASA is backing this is because of all the recent activity in the discovery of exoplanets and the advances in astrobiology in general. People just consider it much more likely now that we’re going to find something — probably microbes first and maybe intelligence later. The driving force behind this is from a scientific point of view that it seems much more likely now that we are going to find life at some point in the future.” – Astronomer, symposium organizer and former chief NASA historian, Steven J. Dick.
One of the theologians present was Brother Guy Consolmagno, who is the new president of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. This is what he had to say:
“I Believe [alien life exists], but I have no evidence. I would be really excited and it would make my understanding of my religion deeper and richer in ways that I can’t even predict yet, which is why it would be so exciting.”
He is urging the public not to be so surprised when extraterrestrial life is discovered, because it will be discovered. He even said that he would be happy to baptize them, if it’s intelligent extraterrestrial life that’s discovered. The Vatican has been very open to the idea of intelligent extraterrestrial life, and they’ve expressed these views for a very long time.
Earth is not the center of the universe, it’s not flat, and it’s looking very likely that the next major paradigm shifting revelation will be the fact that we are not alone in the universe.
It’s great to see the mainstream world gather, discuss and prepare for this possibility and ultimate reality, and it’s a great seg-way to create more awareness about the world of secrecy, the world’s within our world that deal with projects the human race knows nothing about.
The Other Probability – Intelligent Extraterrestrial Life Is Already Here
All of the information I’ve provided below is probably old information for CE fans that regularly visit our site. This information is from a previous article I wrote earlier in the year, I thought it would be fitting to cut and paste it here for our new readers. You can find more CE articles on the UFO/Extraterrestrial topic by visiting our exopolitics section HERE.
In the United States alone, at least half of all Americans say that we’re not alone in the universe. Fifty percent of Americans already believe that there is some form of life on other planets, while only seventeen percent think that there isn’t. A quarter of Americans believe that intelligent extraterrestrial visitors have already come to Earth and have been doing so for a long time.
Here’s one of them:
“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time.” – Apollo 14 Astronaut, Air Force Captain and Founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, Dr. Edgar Mitchell
There are multiple reasons why the extraterrestrial question continues to gain popularity. People are starting to ask questions about the world around them, utilizing critical thinking and investigation. After thoroughly investigating this topic your conclusions will be similar to the conclusions of the majority, we are not alone, and we are being visited.
1. The Size of the Universe
How often do you look up into the night sky and wonder just how many stars, planets, galaxies and more are out there? Space has been a high area of interest that has always fascinated scientists, philosophers, musicians and pretty much just about everyone. What is it about deep space that grabs our attention so much? To think about just how big the universe is can really put things into perspective.
Counting the stars in the universe is like trying to count the number of sand grains on a beach , not possible. Although estimates vary among different experts, the general consensus is that there are at least between 100 billion and 200 billion galaxies in our universe. Think about that for a moment, and now throw in billions of stars in each galaxy! This number could very easily be in the trillions for all we know.
Take the Milky Way Galaxy for example, which measures to about 120,000 light years across (it would take light that many years to travel across the galaxy), and contains up to 400 billion stars. Again, that’s billions of galaxies that contain billions of stars.
Scientists estimate that at least 10 billion habitable Earth-sized planets exist in the milky way alone ( one galaxy out of billions), but it’s important to keep an open mind as to what type of conditions and environments some unknown extraterrestrial like forms could thrive in. They all don’t necessarily have to be Earth-like.
Given our estimation of the size of the universe, or multiverse (whatever you want to call it), odds are we are not alone.
2. Whistle Blowers The past few years have seen a surge of whistle-blowers that’ve come out and said some remarkable things. Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden and Julian Assange have received the most attention, but the reality is that there are hundreds of whistle blowers who have come forward with verified credentials and backgrounds. Mass survelience and the security state is not the only thing shocking people around the world, it’s the fact that many of these whistle blowers claim that we are not alone in the universe. It wouldn’t be so hard to ignore if it wasn’t for the backgrounds these people have in their respected fields.
The first one that comes to mind is Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defence Minister, the man responsible for unifying the Canadian Air Force, Army and the Navy into one united force now known as the Canadian Forces. For someone with such a background to come out and make these extraordinary claims definitely grabbed the attention of many people.
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after. Trillions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have deliberately been kept in the dark.”
”In one of the cases during the cold war, 1961, there were about 50 UFOs in formation flying South from Russia across Europe. The supreme allied commander was very concerned and was about ready to press the panic button when they turned around and went back over the North Pole. They decided to do an investigation and they investigated for three years and they decided that with absolute certainty that four different species, at least, have been visiting this planet for thousands of years. There’s been a lot more activity in the past two decades, especially since we invented the atomic bomb.”
Paul Hellyer isn’t the only one making extraordinary statements, at least a dozen NASA astronauts have done the same. Just like Dr. Edgar Mitchell’s quote, other astronauts have said some remarkable things. Let’s take a look at a few (out of many) examples.
“There is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been monitoring us for a very long time. That their appearance is bizarre from any type of traditional materialistic western point of view. That these visitors use the technologies of consciousness, they use toroids, they use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, that seems to be a common denominator of the UFO phenomenon” – Dr. Brian O’leary, Former NASA Astronaut and Princeton Physics Professor
“In my opinion I think they were worried that it would panic the public so they started telling lies about it. And then I think they had to tell another lie to cover their first lie, now they don’t know how to get out of it. Now it’s going to be so embarrassing to admit that all these administrations have told so many untruths, it would be embarrassing getting out of it. There are a number of extraterrestrial vehicles out there cruising around.” – Gordon Cooper, Former NASA Astronaut, Aeronautical Engineer and test pilot. One of the seven original Astronauts in Project Mercury, the first manned space program of the United States
The list goes on and on, the latest in NASA Astronaut statements about UFOs came from the 2005 International Space Station (ISS) Commander, Leroy Chiao.
Here is a video of John Podesta who was recently appointed as councillor to Barack Obama supporting UFO disclosure.
Some of the most extraordinary statements about UFOs and extraterrestrials come from persons who have held some of the highest positions known. Those who would be in a position to ‘know’ about possible extraterrestrial encounters.
“Behind the scenes, high ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense” Former head of CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960
“There is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, by other civilizations. Who they are, where they are from, and what they want should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not be the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” – Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee
” Everything is in a process of investigation both in the United States and in Spain, as well as the rest of the world. The nations of the world are currently working together in the investigation of the UFO phenomenon. There is an international exchange of data.” – General Carlos Castro Cavero (1979). From “UFOs and the National Security State, Volume 2″, Written by Richard Dolan
The list of military whistle blowers is huge, there are hundreds of them and hundreds of quotes to choose from. To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE. You can also look up Dr. Steven Greer and the disclosure project.
The list of quotes from all fields, from many people is outstanding. I could literally fill pages upon pages so I’ll stop here, I think you get the picture. These quotes by whistleblowers and people with prestigious backgrounds leads perfectly into the next point as to why almost everybody knows that we are not alone in the universe.
“There is another way whether it’s wormholes or warping space, there’s got to be a way to generate energy so that you can pull it out of the vacuum, and the fact that they’re here shows us that they found a way.” – Jack Kasher, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus of Physics, University of Nebraska.
“This thing has gotten so highly-classified…it is just impossible to get anything on it. I have no idea who controls the flow of need-to-know because, frankly, I was told in such an emphatic way that it was none of my business that I’ve never tried to make it to be my business since. I have been interested in this subject for a long time and I do know that whatever the Air Force has on the subject is going to remain highly classified” – Senator Barry Goldwater , Chairman of the Senate intelligence committee
3. The Evidence of UFOs
Within the past few years, dozens of governments admitted to allocating resources and having programs to study the UFO phenomenon. For instance, in Canada the RCMP, Transport Canada, and the Department of National Defence recently admitted to tracking UFOs and investigating them. They’ve been doing it for years, accumulating thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents. Many of these documents have since been officially released.
Documents released by the National Security Agency (NSA) reveal what is recorded when a UFO is being tracked on radar. HERE is ten incredible cases. HERE is a four page U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and NSA report describing a particular encounter in great detail.
“As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4. ”
There is a Wikileak cable that describes how some politicians already know we are not alone in the universe. You can read more about that HERE.
Again the list goes on and on and thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents are now available in the public domain. For a summary of more documents that have been declassified and made available, a video done by UFO Richard Dolan does a great one in 10 minutes.

4. Mass Mainstream Media Attention
Media outlets of all kind are covering the topic, almost every movie that comes out these days has something to do with space or some kind of extraterrestrial intelligence. We’ve been bombarded with the topic for a while now so it’s not hard to see how it’s on the minds of many.
The most recent case of mainstream extraterrestrial ‘noise’ was made when scientists recently spoke to the house Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Dan Werthimer of the SETI Research Centre at the University of California, Berkeley, recently called for more funding to be allocated to the search for extraterrestrial life since he is “close to 100 percent” certain that we are not alone.
In mid 2013, the same committee held a hearing about exoplanet discoveries, but perhaps one of the largest UFO/extraterrestrial hearings came at the National Press Club, which also took place in Mid-2013. At this event, hundreds of researchers, activists and military/agency/political witnesses representing ten countries gave UFO/extraterrestrial testimony to six former members of the United States Congress about events and evidence indicating an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
Former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), and 2008 presidential candidate said that there is “an extraterrestrial influence that is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously.” You can learn more about the citizens hearing here.
Apart from these events, UFOs are constantly a topic of interest in today’s mainstream news. Unfortunately, most mainstream media outlets that cover the topic seek out to ridicule it rather than investigating it properly.
To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE.
There are millions of people out there claiming to have contact with extraterrestrial beings. This has played a large role in spreading the influence of extraterrestrial interest across the world. All of us seem to be naturally fascinated with the unknown, especially when it comes to space. It seems like human nature.
Neuroscience can now explain what happens to our body when we meditate, but it’s something we all knew to be beneficial before the science. Is extraterrestrial life similar? Is it something we all feel deep down inside, something we don’t need proof for? (Even though the proof is there).
Besides the thousands of videos available on YouTube, there is some very fascinating officially documented UFO footage available for us to see. Click HERE to see raw footage of a UFO showing up in Norway for scientists at their observatory.
Click HERE to see film from the 1991 NASA STS-48 Discovery Space Shuttle mission. It’s some of the best, officially documented UFO footage that’s out there today.
HERE is a video that made headlines once released. It came from straight front the Mexican Air Force. Do a quick UFO search on youtube and you’ll see many fakes, but many real videos of unknown aerial objects.
Final Thoughts
A few years ago the question was “Do UFOs exist?” Today that question has been answered, and the presence of UFOs performing maneuvers that defy our laws of physics has been well documented. The question has more so shifted to, “Is that an extraterrestrial space craft?”
It’s nothing to fear, in my opinion they’ve been around forever. They have been aware of us long before we have been aware of them. As speculated with our ancient civilizations in Earth’s brief past, perhaps they will one day interact with humanity again. I guess we will see.
Perhaps some groups are concerned about our planet, and come here further pushing the idea that we need to start changing the way we are doing things here. Perhaps one day soon we will find out.
I definitely believe that a good chunk of these UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin. I also believe that many of these crafts are “ours.”
Parents worried after child "stalked by UFO for two weeks" showed them footage of the UFO
After seeing the "unquestionable" evidence of the UFO footage their son managed to record, the concerned parents sent the material for verification.
The incredible video was recorded by a nine-year old child who claimed for weeks that he was being stocked by some sort of mysterious craft. The little boy went to his parents to tell them about his terrifying experience but the child's mother and father did not believe him. The boy's parents changed their opinion after the little fella managed to record on video the object that had been stalking him for over two weeks. The mysterious unidentified flying object changes direction, speed and eventually vanishes into space.
After seeing the video their little boy recorded, the parents quickly sent the footage to experts for verification.
Many Ufologists believe that this is just one of the hundreds of cases around the world, where mysterious flying objects follow people around and eventually "abduct" them.
Even though we do not know "who" the experts are that verified the footage, we believe that this certainly is a very interesting UFO video that will cause a lot of debate among skeptics and ufologists.
Here is the video footage:
After the video was uploaded to YouTube, there have been dozens of comments about the strange UFO encounters. One of the "experts" commented: "It was almost as if this craft made itself invisible to the parents and only visible to the child, who was needless to say very frightened by this thing.
"This further corroborates other stories where these UFOs follow children, presumably to abduct them.
"This craft was luckily caught on video by the child who had run in to get the parents phone, ran back out, started recording the craft in mid-flight.
"You can see the craft shape shifts, it changes direction it stops before finally dematerializing."
but there are mixed feelings about the video. Others believe that these claims are just as absurd as the video itself.
One of the commentators wrote:
Where is your evidence of intent?
"This video title accusation, is more a reflection on the mentality of the uploader, than proof of anything nefarious on behalf of the craft pilot.
" Are we going to extend our (apparently) inherent racism to every being we encounter?"

Ecosse : un système élaboré de calendrier vieux de 10 000 ans découvert
Ecosse : un système élaboré de calendrier vieux de 10 000 ans découvert
Selon une nouvelle étude, les humains ont inventé un système sophistiqué calendaire des milliers d'années plus tôt qu'on ne le pensait précédemment.
La découverte est basée sur une analyse détaillée des données d'un site archéologique dans le nord de l'Ecosse - une rangée de fosses anciennes que les archéologues croient être le plus ancien calendrier mondial. Il a près de cinq mille années de plus que son plus proche rival - un ancien calendrier créé à partir de l'âge du bronze en Mésopotamie.
Créé par les Britanniques de l'âge de la Pierre, il y a quelques 10.000 années, des archéologues croient que le complexe de puits a été conçu pour représenter les mois de l'année et les phases lunaires du mois. Ils croient qu'il a également permis l'observation du lever du soleil en plein hiver - en effet, la naissance de la nouvelle année - alors que le calendrier lunaire pourrait être re-calibré annuellement pour le ramener en ligne avec l'année solaire.
Représentation artistique d'un artiste de Warren Champ y a environ 10.000 ans, montrant un matériau qui brûle dans une des fosses du calendrier
Remarquablement le monument était en usage pendant quelque 4000 ans - à partir de 8000 avant JC (période au début du mésolithique) à environ 4000 avant JC (début du néolithique).
Les fosses ont été périodiquement retaillées - probablement des dizaines de fois, voire des centaines de fois - par rapport à celles de quatre millénaires. Il est donc impossible de savoir si oui ou non elles contenaient originellement des poteaux en bois ou des pierres dressées après qu'elles aient été creusées il y a 10.000 ans. Cependant les variations dans les profondeurs des fosses suggérent que l'arc avait une conception complexe - avec chaque mois lunaire potentiellement divisé en trois «semaines» d'environ dix jours - ce qui représente la lune croissante, la lune gibbeuse / pleine et la lune décroissante.
Les 50 mètres de longueur de la rangée de 12 fosses principales ont été organisés comme un arc vers un plongeon en forme de V à l'horizon sur lequel le soleil se levait le jour de la mi-hiver. Il y a 12,37 cycles lunaires (mois lunaire) dans une année solaire - et les archéologues croient que chaque fosse représentait un mois en particulier, avec l'ensemble de l'arc représentant une année.
Les 12 puits ont peut-être joué un autre rôle en représentant le mois lunaire. Reflétant les phases de la lune, le noir et l'affaiblissement de ce qui prend 29 jours et demi, la succession de creux, disposés en arc peu profond (peut-être symbolisant le mouvement de la lune dans le ciel), commence petit et peu profond à une extrémité , croît en diamètre et en profondeur vers le centre de l'arc, puis décroît dans sa taille, à l'autre extrémité.
Une illustration sur la façon dont les fosses auraient fonctionné. Les universités de St Andrews, Leicester et Bradford ont également participé.
Dans son rôle d'un calendrier annuel (couvrant 12 mois - une pour chaque fosse), un système d'alternance des profondeurs de la fosse suggère que les mois voisins peuvent être jumelés en quelque sorte, ce qui pourrait refléter une sorte de système de croyance cosmologique dualiste - connu dans les documents ethnographiques et historiques dans de nombreuses parties du monde, mais pas encore détecté archéologiquement à l'âge de pierre.
Garder la trace du temps aurait été d'une immense utilité économique et spirituelle aux communautés de chasseurs-cueilleurs du mésolithique. Leur calendrier aurait aidés à déterminer le moment précis où les troupeaux d'animaux pouvaient s'attendre à migrer ou à la fois plus susceptibles où les saumons pourraient commencer leur voyage.
Mais les leaders des communautés de l'Age de Pierre - y compris potentiellement des Shamans - peuvent aussi avoir utilisé le calendrierpour se donner l'apparence d'être en mesure de prédire ou de contrôler les saisons ou le comportement de la lune et du soleil...
Le site - à Warren Field, Crathes, Aberdeenshire - a été fouillé en 2004 par le National Trust for Scotland, mais les données ne furent analysées en détail qu'au cours des six derniers mois en utilisant le logiciel spécialement écrit, ce qui a permis une exploration interactive de la relation entre le 12 puits, la topographie locale et les mouvements de la lune et du soleil.
L'analyse a été réalisée par une équipe de spécialistes dirigée par le professeur Vincent Gaffney, de l'Université de Birmingham.
« La recherche démontre que la société de l'âge de pierre il y a 10.000 ans était beaucoup plus sophistiquée que ce que nous avions déjà soupçonné. Le site a des implications sur la façon dont nous comprenons comment la société du Mésolithique s'est développée sur le plan économique, social et cosmologique ", a déclaré le professeur Gaffney.
« Les preuves suggèrent que les sociétés des chasseurs-cueilleurs en Ecosse avaient à la fois la nécessité et la technicité de suivre le temps à travers les années, à corriger la dérive des saisons de l'année lunaire et que cela s'est produit près de 5000 ans avant les premiers calendriers officiels connus dans le Proche-Orient . Ce faisant, cela illustre une étape importante vers la construction formelle du temps et donc de l'histoire elle-même ", a-t-il dit.
Dr Richard Bates, de l'Université de St Andrews, a déclaré la découverte fournie " de nouvelles preuves passionnantes " du début du Mésolithique en Ecosse.
Il a ajouté: " C'est le premier exemple d'une telle structure et il n'y a pas de site comparable connu en Grande-Bretagne ou en Europe pendant plusieurs milliers d'années après que le monument à Warren Camp ait été construit. "
Le site de Champ Warren a été découvert parce que des hirondelles inhabituelles avaient été repérées dans l'air par la Commission royale sur les monuments anciens et historiques de l'Ecosse (RCAHMS).
Dave Cowley, enquêteur chargé de projets à RCAHMS, a déclaré: " Nous avons pris des photos du paysage écossais depuis près de 40 ans, en enregistrant des milliers de sites archéologiques qui n'auraient jamais été détectés depuis le sol.
" Le Champ Warren apparaît comme quelque chose de spécial, cependant. Il est remarquable de penser que notre étude aérienne a peut-être aidé à trouver l'endroit où le temps lui-même a été inventé ".
Le site avait déjà révélé de nombreuses traces préhistoriques, dont les restes d'une grande habitation datée d'environ 5800 ans avant maintenant : http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=6134
Les excavations sur les iles Orkney révèlent un temple incroyable sophistiqué âgé de 5000 ans minimum. L'excavation révolutionnaire d'un Temple préhistorique complexe sur l'île écossaise d'Orkney a révélé que les habitants du néolithique de l'île étaient beaucoup plus avancés qu'on ne l'avait d'abord réalisé, selon un communiqué dans The Scotsman. Alors qu'une vaste collection d'objets anciens reflètent une société complexe et culturellement riche, les archéologues ont également découvert que les trois grandes structures monumentales de l'île - l'Anneau de Brodgar, les Pierres de Stennes, et le tombeau de Maes Howe - étaient " inextricablement liés à un unique grand thème ".
Le site archéologique, connu sous le nom Ness de Brodgar, couvre une superficie de plus de 6 hectares et comprend des restes de logements, des restes de toits d'ardoise, des allées pavées, des façades colorées, des dalles de pierre décorées, un mur en pierres massives avec des fondations, et un grand bâtiment décrit comme un «cathedra» néolithique ou «palais», habité depuis au moins 3.500 avant JC jusqu'à la fin de la période néolithique plus d'un millénaire et demi plus tard.
« Leur fabrication était impeccable. Les murs imposants qu'ils ont construits auraient fait honneur aux centurions romains qui, quelques 30 siècles plus tard, ont érigé le mur d'Hadrien dans une autre partie de la Grande-Bretagne. Cloîtrés dans ces murs il y avait des dizaines de bâtiments, dont une des plus grandes structures couvertes construites dans la préhistoire au nord de l'Europe. " Elle avait plus de 80 pieds (25 m) de long et 60 pieds (18 m) de large, avec des murs épais 13 pieds (4 m) ", a déclaré Roff Smith, auteur d'un article sur le Ness de Brogar qui va être publié dans l'édition de Août de National Geographic.
La fouille archéologique, qui a jusquà présent découvert seulement environ 10 pour cent du site original, a déjà donné des milliers d'artefacts incroyables y compris des têtes de massues de cérémonie, des haches en pierre polie, des couteaux de silex, une figurine humaine, des pots miniatures faits au pouce, des spatules en pierre magnifiquement ciselées, de très raffinées poteries colorées, et plus de 650 pièces d'art du néolithique, de loin la plus grande collection jamais trouvée en Grande-Bretagne.
Dirigez-vous assez loin vers le nord en partant de Derbyshire, et vous arrivez à la frontière avec l'Ecosse. Continuez et vous finirez par arriver dans les îles Orcades, une série de 70 îles et îlots situés à 6.2 miles (10 km) de la pointe nord de l'Ecosse. Vous pourriez penser que cela aurait été abandonné tout de suite après le Néolithique, mais il y a des preuves pour suggérer une civilisation florissante ici. Le cercle de l'Anneau de Brodgar en pierre massive en est seulement une partie de la dépouille de cette culture, qui comprennent le site bien conservé de Skara Brae, le site de Barnhouse, la belle tombe en encorbellement de Maes Howe et le Tombeau des Aigles.
En fait, les îles sont jonchées de restes de structures, des bâtiments et des murs, des pierres debout et des établissements, ce qui rend le patrimoine préhistorique vibrant, vivant et dans un état de conservation impressionnant. Les îles Orcades, si vous avez déjà eu la chance de les visiter, sont une série de falaises, de baies peu profondes et des routes sinueuses (où se trouvent tout ce qui existe actuellement), ce qui signifie que le niveau de développement moderne est faible, et n'a pas vraiment un impact sur le paysage autant qu'on pourrait le dire, comme le centre d'une ville moderne. L'endroit de la capitale est à Kirkwall, pas plus de 8500 habitants, et à l'ouest de la capitale, entre les pierres massives de Stenness et le puissant Anneau de Brodgar, il y a une petite bande de terre, qui semble assez modeste sur un carte moderne. Vous pourriez donc réaliser maintenant que quelque chose de tout à fait modeste pour la recherche est peu susceptible d'attirer les archéologues, et il n'y a donc actuellement qu'une excavation en cours sur le site :
Retour au Néolithique, cependant, et que le peu de bande de terre était le centre et le site de certaines activités culturelles et comportementales intenses. Les Pierres de Stenness, dans le bas de l'image ci-dessus, a un foyer central, et est entouré par des preuves de festins et d'une activité de colonisation (notamment au site Barnhouse). L'Anneau de Brodgar, en haut de l'image, est entouré par des tumulus et des cimetières et a un manque d'activités domestiques. Alors que se trouve-t-il sur la bande entre le lieu de la vie et le lieu de la mort ? La première chose qu'il s'est passée en 2002, a été que les archéologues sur le Loch de Stenness, sous le commandement du directeur du site et chef du projet Orkney Archaeological Trust, Nick Cave, a entrepris un relevé géophysique massif du site, qui s'est terminé avec des résultats qui ressemblaient à ceci (cliquez pour agrandir image) :
1) Les marques blanches sont où le levé géophysique a révélé une différence dans les dépôts enterrés. Malheureusement, il ne vous dira pas précisément ce que ces dépôts sont, ni où se trouvent le les plus intéressants sont à creuser. 2) Il y a une zone de forme sombre près du centre des résultats, c'est la taille de la zone d'excavation en cours par rapport à la taille de l'ensemble du site. Les fouilles couvrent environ 10% de l'ensemble de la région à ce jour. 3) Le tout semble être entouré par un mur rectangulaire, qui a une sorte d'entrée courbée vers l'intérieur dans le milieu du bord de la partie droite, et une autre entrée de l'autre côté, qui se recroqueville à nouveau vers l'intérieur vers le haut du bord gauche. Donc tout ce que nous voyons sont des bâtiments, vous pouvez essayer de deviner qu'ils sont bien murés.
Toutes les choses dans le centre sont à peu près un fouillis de restants de lignes et de murs, aussi en 2008, les archéologues ont pu faire ce qu'ils font le mieux et creuser un beau trou ordonné pour voir ce qui ce trouve plus bas.
Pour la partie nord-est de la zone fouillée, vous obtenez quelque chose qui ressemble à ceci :
Vous pourriez commencer à voir les lignes d'un imposant bâtiment rectangulaire étrange avec des alcôves autour des parois intérieures. Ce n'est pas le seul bâtiment qui a été découvert, car, à l'intérieur cette grande enceinte fortifiée du Ness, tout en est couvert, avec plus de 100 en cours d'identification dans les résultats de l'enquête et des fouilles :
Celui que nous avons dégagé en premier était la structure 8 sur la carte ci-dessus, et la recherche à partir du bord du plan ci-dessus vers le milieu.
La théorie la plus courante (maintenant), est que l'ensemble du site est un lieu liminal de transition (un Seuil) entre les mondes des vivants et le monde des morts. C'est une théorie parallèle à l'hypothèse pour les sites à Durrington Walls et de Stonehenge, reliés par l'avenue, d'abord proposée par Mike Parker Pearson lors de la Conférence sur le néolithique à Kirkwall en 1998. Voilà que le Loch Ness est un chemin conducteur entre les pierres du site de Steness / Barnhouse et l'Anneau de Brodgar. Il existe dans l'endroit un liminal (seuil) parfait, la géographie du site permet de créer une étroite bande de terre entre le sel et les lacs d'eau douce, en alignement avec deux énormes monuments de pierre représentant où la population vivait et le foyer spirituel des ancêtres et dominant le paysage. Les bâtiments de forme étranges sur le plan ci-dessus sont tous uniques, et n'existaient pas tous sur le site au même moment. Certains d'entre eux ont des foyers d'incendie dans les portes, et certains ont des fentes étroites dans les murs, peut-être pour des entrées / sorties. Les grands murs qui entourent le site peuvent avoir été faits pour séparer physiquement l'espace, pour la création d'une zone de transition dans laquelle les nouveaux morts partaient à travers la terre des ancêtres de l'autre côté. D'autres, comme la structure 10, qui est celui avec les murs très épais au fond du plan ci-dessus, ont les restes d'environ 600 bovins, tous presque exclusivement des os, datant de 2.300 avant JC. Il y a même des preuves de peintures sur les murs, et une multitude de poteries brisées et de têtes de hache de pierre / masses. Et parmi toute cette multitude céramique il y a ce petit bonhomme, nommé le Brogar Boy :
Vous pourriez être très familier avec les figurines de Vénus, mais celle-ci a été provisoirement décrite comme une représentation rare d'un homme, voici son visage en gros plan :
Les sites monumentaux de l'Anneau de Brodgar, les pierres dressées de Stenness, et la tombe de Maes Howe, tous situés à quelques miles de la Ness, étaient considérés comme étant utilisés comme des monuments isolés, avec des histoires distinctes, jusqu'à présent. Mais depuis que les fouilles sur le Ness se soient étendues et aient progréssé, les archéologues en sont venus à croire que les sites mégalithiques de la région environnante ont tous été reliés en quelque sorte avec le Ness de Brodgar, bien que son objectif reste inconnu.
" Ce que le Ness nous dit, c'est que c'était un paysage beaucoup plus intégré que quiconque ne l'avait jamais soupçonné ", a déclaré l'archéologue Nick Card, directeur des fouilles de l'Institut d'archéologie de l'Université des Highlands et des îles. " Tous ces monuments sont inextricablement liés à un quelconque grand thème que nous ne pouvons que deviner. Les gens qui ont construit tout cela faisaient partie d'une société beaucoup plus complexe et capable que cela n'a été dépeint dans l'Histoire".
" Allez au Ness aujourd'hui et plusieurs structures emblématiques de l'Age de la Pierre sont à portées de vue facilement, formant le noyau d'un site du patrimoine mondial appelé le Coeur néolithique des Orcades," a déclaré Smith. " Le Ness de Brogar semble être la pièce d'ancrage - la pièce maîtresse, si vous voulez - qui relie ces autres grands monuments dans un grand paysage monumental dont une personne d'élite avait rêvé l'existance. Et de l'avoir eu gisant sous nos pieds, insoupçonné, depuis tant de siècles ne fait qu'ajouter à l'émerveillement entourant cette découverte.

THE WINGS OF THE BUTTERFLY - NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF THE TWIN JET NEBULA [HEIC1518]
THE WINGS OF THE BUTTERFLY - NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF THE TWIN JET NEBULA [HEIC1518]
The shimmering colours visible in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image show off the remarkable complexity of the Twin Jet Nebula. The new image highlights the nebula's shells and its knots of expanding gas in striking detail. Two iridescent lobes of material stretch outwards from a central star system. Within these lobes two huge jets of gas are streaming from the star system at speeds in excess of one million kilometres per hour.
The cosmic butterfly pictured in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image goes by many names. It is called the Twin Jet Nebula as well as answering to the slightly less poetic name of PN M2-9.
The M in this name refers to Rudolph Minkowski, a German-American astronomer who discovered the nebula in 1947. The PN, meanwhile, refers to the fact that M2-9 is a planetary nebula. The glowing and expanding shells of gas clearly visible in this image represent the final stages of life for an old star of low to intermediate mass. The star has not only ejected its outer layers, but the exposed remnant core is now illuminating these layers – resulting in a spectacular light show like the one seen here. However, the Twin Jet Nebula is not just any planetary nebula, it is a bipolar nebula.
Ordinary planetary nebulae have one star at their centre, bipolar nebulae have two, in a binary star system. Astronomers have found that the two stars in this pair each have around the same mass as the Sun, ranging from 0.6 to 1.0 solar masses for the smaller star, and from 1.0 to 1.4 solar masses for its larger companion. The larger star is approaching the end of its days and has already ejected its outer layers of gas into space, whereas its partner is further evolved, and is a small white dwarf.
The characteristic shape of the wings of the Twin Jet Nebula is most likely caused by the motion of the two central stars around each other. It is believed that a white dwarf orbits its partner star and thus the ejected gas from the dying star is pulled into two lobes rather than expanding as a uniform sphere. However, astronomers are still debating whether all bipolar nebulae are created by binary stars. Meanwhile the nebula's wings are still growing and, by measuring their expansion, astronomers have calculated that the nebula was created only 1200 years ago.
Within the wings, starting from the star system and extending horizontally outwards like veins are two faint blue patches. Although these may seem subtle in comparison to the nebula's rainbow colours, these are actually violent twin jets streaming out into space, at speeds in excess of one million kilometres per hour. This is a phenomenon that is another consequence of the binary system at the heart of the nebula. These jets slowly change their orientation, precessing across the lobes as they are pulled by the wayward gravity of the binary system.
The two stars at the heart of the nebula circle one another roughly every 100 years. This rotation not only creates the wings of the butterfly and the two jets, it also allows the white dwarf to strip gas from its larger companion, which then forms a large disc of material around the stars, extending out as far as 15 times the orbit of Pluto! Even though this disc is of incredible size, it is much too small to be seen on the image taken by Hubble.
Giant plumes of methane on Mars may be the belches of buried microbes

Nasa is keeping an open mind, but says there is an urgent need to analyse the methane clouds for other chemicals that would either confirm or rule out life as the cause.
The search for extraterrestrial life has received a tantalising boost with the announcement that Nasa scientists have detected wafts of methane on Mars that could be the emissions of microbes living deep beneath the surface.
A seven-year survey of the red planet using three powerful ground-based telescopes in Hawaii, Arizona and Chile spotted giant plumes of the noxious gas being released from the ground in the northern hemisphere during the Martian summer.
Over three months in 2003 around 19,000 tonnes of methane belched into the atmosphere from two valleys and a volcano, each about 620 miles apart, Nasa scientists report in the US journal Science.
On Earth more than 90% of methane in the atmosphere is produced by living things as a byproduct of food digestion. But the gas can also be emitted by common geological processes in volcanoes and from fissures in ocean floors.
Nasa scientists calculate that a colony of Martian microbes covering 2,316 sq miles of the planet’s permafrost could account for the volumes of methane detected. Alternatively, the gas could be released by a community of ancient bugs living in aquifers nearly five miles beneath the surface, under the permafrost.
Michael Mumma, director of Nasa’s Goddard Centre for Astrobiology in Maryland, US, said the agency was keeping an open mind about the origins of the plumes but added that there was now an urgent need to analyse the methane clouds for other chemicals that would either confirm or rule out life as the cause.
“We do not claim to have identified life, nor do we think it is possible to draw that conclusion solely on the basis of methane detection,” he said. “But we now know where, and maybe when, to go and look for other chemical signatures that will distinguish whether this is biology or other processes at work. To me it is compelling and imperative that we now map the entire planet repeatedly over two Mars years to identify all of the active regions of methane release and to establish their seasonal variability.” If it can predict when the plumes will appear, he said, Nasa could send probes to fly through them and investigate them further.”
Scientists previously sniffed a haze of methane around Mars in 2004. The European Space Agency’s Mars Express orbiter recorded levels of methane in the atmosphere at around 10 parts in a billion, suggesting that any releases from the planet were tiny.
The latest study provides evidence that substantial amounts of methane could be released on a seasonal basis, but is quickly broken down in the atmosphere.
The Nasa team used infrared detectors on the telescopes to confirm the presence of methane at three locations on Mars. One region, a valley known as Nili Fossae, is rich in clay minerals and was once covered in standing water. The two other sites are known as Syrtis Major, an enormous volcano nearly 500 miles wide, and the region of Terra Sabae.
On Earth there are two geological processes that produce methane. One, called serpentinisation, requires heat, water and carbon dioxide. “It could be responsible, but if it’s ongoing it means there is hot rock below the surface, so Mars must still be active,” said Mumma.
Methane is also produced in magma underneath volcanoes, but there is no evidence of active volcanoes on Mars.
If the methane is the belchings of Martian microbes, these are either living about three metres below the surface, or deep beneath the permafrost, said Mumma. The gas is thought to build up during the winter and is then released in the summer as the warmth of the sun opens up fissures in the ground.
John Parnell, an expert in astrobiology and professor of geology at Aberdeen University, said: “One of the key things about methane is it degrades in the atmosphere, so if it’s there, something is replenishing it. If it’s not life then something else is active on Mars. Even if it’s not being produced by living organisms the methane could be used as a fuel by other microbes. On Earth some of the most primitive organisms, which are billions of years old, use methane as a fuel.”
Nasa’s next opportunity to analyse samples on the red planet will be provided by theMars Science Laboratory, due for launch in 2011, which will carry more advanced sensors than any other probe to have set down on the planet.
Could Alien Life Spread 'Like a Virus' to the Stars?
Could Alien Life Spread 'Like a Virus' to the Stars?
In this theoretical artist’s conception of the Milky Way galaxy, translucent green “bubbles” mark areas where life has spread beyond its home system to create cosmic oases, a process called panspermia. New research suggests that we could detect the pattern of panspermia, if it occurs.

As astronomical techniques become more advanced, a team of astrophysicists think they will be able to not only detect the signatures of alien life in exoplanetary atmospheres, but also track its relentless spread throughout the galaxy.
The research, headed by Henry Lin of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), assumes that this feat may be possible in a generation or so and that the hypothesis of panspermia may act as the delivery system for alien biology to hop from one star system to another.
Panspermia is a process where life is somehow transplanted from planet to planet. This may happen should a planet, rich with life, be hit by a massive asteroid impact; pieces of that planet’s crust will be propelled into space and any life contained within those samples may be transplanted to another world. If these hardy lifeforms make the trip, then perhaps they can gain a foothold and seed life in this new environment.
There are other hypothetical mechanisms by which life could “hop” from one planet to the next — including the fascinating possibility of “directed panspermia” where an intelligent civilization may deliberately seed other star systems with capsules containing its biological image. Other ideas remove the need for this life to survive the trip, allowing the freeze-dried dead biology attached to space rocks to act as a template for life on a newly seeded world, a process called “necropanspermia.”
These processes are pure hypotheses right now, and this new research does not specify how life may spread, but we do know that chunks of planetary bodies can travel from planet to planet. For example, a type of meteorite found on Earth is known to originate from Mars — its isotopic signature is identical to measurements made by the armada of robots currently orbiting and roving on the Red Planet. These meteorites were bits of Mars crust blasted into space by ancient impacts.
It’s not such a stretch to think that chunks of Earth have also been blasted into space and computer simulations suggest that there’s a statistical chance that Earth rocks have drifted to the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn, potentially impacting some of the gas giants’ moons. Whether or not Earth’s abundant life was contained within these rocks is not known and it’s quite a stretch to think that a secondary genesis of life may have been spawned.
But say if life can hitch a ride on space rocks and this life can seed new biospheres on other worlds… how would astrobiologists recognize that life is being spread from one star system to the next? Well, like a common cold, the spread would appear viral.
“Life could spread from host star to host star in a pattern similar to the outbreak of an epidemic. In a sense, the Milky Way galaxy would become infected with pockets of life,” said co-author Avi Loeb, also of the CfA, in a press release.
Using a computer model, Lin and Loeb assumed that the “seeds” from one planet’s biosphere spreads in all directions over time. Should one of those seeds reach a habitable planet, there’s a chance it may take root. This creates several life-giving oases that could be detected by future space telescopes peering into these exoplanetary atmospheres. And should several of these life-endowed worlds be found, a pattern may emerge.
“In our theory clusters of life form, grow, and overlap like bubbles in a pot of boiling water,” said Lin.
According to the authors, whose paper has been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal Letters (and can be viewed on the arXiv preprint service), to see any kind of “viral” pattern, life would need to spread comparatively quickly, otherwise the motion of the stars around the galaxy will blur out the pattern. If a panspermia-like spread of life is occurring in the Milky Way, it would be ideal if Earth is located on the edge of a viral “bubble”; a situation whereby all the inhabited worlds are only found in one half of the sky, whereas the other half is devoid of life despite the presence of habitable exoplanets.
The fact that we may be able to decipher the biosignatures of life in the atmospheres of distant worlds is profound enough, but should we discover clusters of inhabited worlds, it begs the question: is panspermia a viable life-spreading mechanism? But even more than that, it questions the origin of life on Earth — did life originate here? Has it spread throughout the solar system or even to other stars?
Or was Earth just in the right place at the right time to catch the virus of life?
PHOTO OF THE DAY: Heflin UFO case revisited August 28, 2015
Heflin UFO photos. CLICK TO ENLARGE
We ran this back in 2012 or 2013. People came out of the woodwork to read this thing. Overloaded the systems. Blew up one of our servers. Smoke was coming off circuit breakers that were snapping. People were screaming "Incoming!".
It was awful. But then...danger is our business. So here goes again. (We've since beefed everything up.)
The Set up: Aug. 3, 1965. Rex Heflin, at that time an Orange County highway inspector was at work one day in his county rig when at 12:37 p.m. he says he spotted a kind of “hat shaped” thing flying in the air in Santa Anna, California.
He said the object was hovering right above the road right in front of him. He grabbed his Polaroid camera (a Model 101 Polaroid camera) that he used during his normal work day to take photos of highway obstructions etc. and got off three photographs of what was (he says) a “metallic-appearing object” and a fourth photo of a black "smoke ring" he says was left behind by the UFO after it sped away at high speed.
Heflin estimated the size of the UFO at around 20 feet wide and saId that as it flew across the road it seemed to hover a bit. He photographed it through his car's windshield as it crossed his line of vision (he got a second photo through his passenger window) and he said that as the object moved toward the east, it tipped a bit and he could see a dark (darker?) underside.
At that point he says he saw a type of "rotating beam of light" coming from the center of the bottom of the object. He said the beam was colored a greenish-white and it rotated (slowly) clockwise from the center of the object out to the rim of the thing.
Heflin also said the craft appeared to "wobble" a bit, kind of like when you see a kid's gyroscope on a table top begin to wobble as it runs out steam. Then he got off a third shot and by then, he says, the object had turned and continued moving east and slowly gaining altitude, then increased it's speed and altitude and as it kept moving it left a smoke like vapor in its wake.
One of the snapshots was published by the Santa Ana Register newspaper on September 20th of that year and the story got much bigger when the newswire services picked it up and fed it national.
THE PHOTOS AND ANALYSIS
The photos at above right are the ones he took. The second shot down on the page is enlarged quite a bit to get a better idea of what he saw.
There are several interesting aspects to this story.
1. The U.S. Air Force (which investigated the case via operation Blue Book) issued a statement saying the photos are a hoax.
2. A UFO investigating group called NICAP investigated the case (both Heflin and the newspaper cooperated in the investigation) which included, among other things, a detailed background check on Heflin (presumably to insure he had not spent any time in a "rest home") and a computer photo analysis study done by Robert Nathan at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, who worked with both first-generation prints and copy negatives made by the newspaper.
The Nathan analysis of the photo prints and negs (reportedly) showed there was some kind of light beam emanating from the underside of the object. The analysis also ruled out that the object was something that was dangling in the air from a string or wire.
Years later some people claimed to have a found a "string like object" in the photos but in 1993 a MUFON photo analyst re-examined all the data and the photos from their initial investigation and rejected the string theory (they said it was an “artifact” generated by the photos being copied and recopied so many times).
TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE?
According to NICAP, persons unknown attempted to tamper with evidence and “manipulate information.” So the story goes, the copy negatives of Heflin's famous photos were at some point obtained from Heflin “under false pretenses” by some men claiming to be from the North American Air Defense Command.
The Air Force said if there ever were such people claiming to be from NORAD who came to get the photos, they were most certainly not from the Air Force or NORAD. Implication being: they were imposters, if they ever existed.
In the end the conclusion of UFO investigators was and is the case is a credible, thoroughly investigated sighting and meets all the criteria for evidence of a legit UFO -- which means it is simply a "legitimate" Unidentified Flying Object which brings us right back to that very day in 1965 when Heflin took the photos.
No more, no less.
Now, there is a fellow (named Marvin) who has done his own rather interesting analysis of the photos and he claims, "The odds are not in favor of a large free flying object remaining the same distance (to the camera) and altitude in both Photo #2 and Photo #3. The evidence supports a small object suspended from the truck near the mirror."
He notes that Heflin never filed any UFO report and we know from other sources that Heflin never sought any publicity (how the photos became public was actually by accident, more or less) so Marvin asks: "Was the whole affair just a practical joke that grew out of control?"
A very good question.
He's put his analysis, with the photos, online. You'll find it here.
P.S. If you ever take a photo of a UFO, send it to us. The merciless, take-no-prisoners, mostly sober (most of the time) crack Investigative Team here at the Chronicle will investigate that bad boy like nobody's business. Make NICAP look they have training wheels on their feet.

WATCH: famous Black Knight UFO myth 'solved' by YouTube novice in just 11 minutes
WATCH: famous Black Knight UFO myth 'solved' by YouTube novice in just 11 minutes
From the nervous, shaky start, you can tell it's his first ever YouTube video.
NASA
The legendary "Black Knight satellite" appears to have been proved as Nasa thermal blanket
The narrator even apologised for his amateur presenting style and asked viewers to bear with him.
But after an 11-minute DIY filming attempt, YouTube user NUA appears to have successfully debunked 1998 photographs of the so-called 'Black Knight satellite'.
Alien researchers have been calling the myth "one of the most convincing pieces of evidence for the existence of intelligent extraterrestrial life" for the past 17 years, while some claim it has orbited Earth for at least 13,000 years.
NASA
Nasa footage of Endeavour astronauts working with thermal blanket (ringed) on ISS
"There she goes" - dropped thermal blanket floats from ISS
But NUA's video - titled "Black Knight Satellite UFO Documentary - Truth Exposed 2015 - (Debunked)" - claims to conclusively prove the 'Black Knight', as photographed in 1998 NASA images, was nothing more than a satellite thermal blanket lost by the crew of the Endeavor space shuttle as they worked on the developing the International Space Station (ISS).
In his video, NUA compared NASA video of the Endeavor mission which shows a thermal blanket on the ISS.
The same blanket is then seen being dropped by the crew as it tubules away into space.
He highlights the blanket as being exactly the same shape as the 'Black Knight' in the 1998 pictures seized on by conspiracists and explains that the object only appeared to change shape because it was turning as it fell away.
After releasing the pictures in 1998, NASA said it was a thermal blanket, but it did not stop a wave of conspiracists branding it a huge cover up.
The legend of the alien satellite seems to have then been retrospectively dated back to 1899 when Nicola Tesla announced he was picking up radio waves coming from space, prompting people to suggest something alien was out there.

...and gets further and further away

NUA has forensically compared shape of blanket to Black Knight and concluded they are the same
It is not a UFO. It is identified. It is a thermal blanket. It is just an unfortunate case of misidentification.
YouTube UFO researcher NUA
Experiments in 1928 in Oslo, Norway, picked up the same signals.
In 1954, US state newspapers carried quotes from Donald Keyhoe, a retired naval aviation major and UFO researcher, claiming the US Air Force had detected two satellites orbiting Earth, despite none yet being launched from our planet.
Time then ran a 1960 piece, following the launch of satellites from Earth, stating that the US Navy detected a dark object, possibly a Soviet spy satellite, with a highly irregular orbit.
The myth developed in 1963 when NASA astronaut Gordon Cooper was reported as saying he had seen the 'Black Knight Satellite' while in space, but there was a media blackout upon his return and the US space agency allegedly put it down to cosmic hallucinations.
It has been reported that a decade later in 1973, a researcher from Scotland, Duncan Lunan, looked back at the Norwegian scientists' data from 1928, before claiming the "messages" suggested the 'Black Knight' was sent by aliens from Epsilon Boötis, as a welcome message to Earth 12,600 years ago.
Many sceptics claim the legend was retrospectively created after the 1998 pictures emerged, with the preceding odd events weaved into the story to make it more convincing.

Do you agree NUA has solved the Black Knight mystery?
The noises from 1899 and 1928 remain a mystery, but the possible causes do not so far include an alien satellite, according to scientists.
They insist research shows that in 1954 Mr Keyhoe had been promoting a UFO book and the articles had been written in a tongue-in-cheek fashion by the papers.
A follow-up, but less widely read, article in Time also confirmed that the strange satellite had in fact been the remains of an Air Force Discoverer satellite that had gone astray, they found.
There are reports that Mr Cooper, although maintaining he saw a number of UFOs in space, never claimed to have seen the 'Black Knight satellite' on that mission or at all.
Mr Lunan is also later reported to have denied suggesting any alien satellite had its origins 12,600 years ago and that his conclusion that the noises were a star map were from unscientific methods.
Despite NUA's video, many UFO researchers refuse to believe the fabled 'Black Knight satellite' could be just a thermal blanket, insisting, it is a craft of solid construction.
One 'Black Knight' believer posted online about the thermal blanket explanation: "Classic debunking (rubbish). The things these nutters will come up with just so someone will listen to them."
