5 Signs 2015 Could Finally Be The Year of Alien Disclosure
5 Signs 2015 Could Finally Be The Year of Alien Disclosure
With information more readily available than ever and groups like WikiLeaks making top secret government files not so top secret, disclosure related to the existence of aliens is more likely now than ever. 2015 is about half over, but there are signs that we can still expect to receive the long-awaited ET disclosure before the year’s up.
1. Secret Government Not So Secret Anymore
The UFO crash and subsequent cover-up that occurred in July of 1947 in Roswell, New Mexico likely propelled the term, “government conspiracy” into the mainstream. However, our first “official” and intentional contact with aliens occurred in 1954 under the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower. Several clandestine meetings between countless government officials that included the leader of the United States of America and beings from outer space would eventually result in an alleged formalized agreement between human beings and a race of extraterrestrials, known as the Greys.
Once the shock and awe wore off, the deal made was a simple exchange of otherworldly technology for the freedom to abduct and experiment on animals and people. Reportedly, their race was dying and the medical examinations were vital to their survival. Hence, the mutilated cattle and repressed abduction memories surfacing on therapist’s couch.
Unfortunately, the original terms of the arrangement would be abandoned as a secret government faction continued relations over the years with the alien race, sans the president and other involved parties, for their mutual benefit. The suspected terms of the ongoing relationship secures the safety, security, freedom and power of the secret group in what will be referred to as the New World Order. The new structure puts into place a single world government that will be led by the Grey alien race and served by members of the secret society. Depressingly, the world population will submit under the extraterrestrial reign.
Under the terms of the arrangement, full disclosure of their agreement will follow the announcement of the not only the existence of aliens, but their assumed control of the planet.
2. Message from Deep Space
In 1983, an astronomer, Hisashi Hirabayashi and his colleague, Masaki Morimoto sent a message, via a radio telescope toward the star, Altair. In an effort to commemorate Tanabata, a Japanese holiday which celebrates the union of two stars, Vega and Altair, they sent a message containing several identifying bits of information. Included in the transmission was the location of Earth, the basic structure of our DNA and common human characteristics.
While we hope for a friendly reply, it is possible that the space mail reached a hostile race and the information we provided will be used against us in some way.
The message should have been received by the inhabitants of Altair in 1999 and assuming it was read and replied was sent, we will be receiving their response sometime late this year, in 2015.
3. Mayan Calendar Predicted 2015 Paradigm Shift
The Tzolkin is the 260-day ceremonial calendar used by the Mayan people for divination and astrology readings. Many of us are familiar with the past prediction that the end of the world would occur in November of 2012. Obviously, that did not happen and as some experts have always maintained, a powerful shift on the planet is predicted to occur in late 2015.

They also argue that the calendar does not prophesize the physical destruction of our planet. Rather, a major directional change of our evolution and daily existence, a shift in consciousness if you will. Man’s existential paradigm shift will be the result of a public awareness of the existence of extraterrestrials and a new understanding of the universe based on their knowledge.
4. Did Nostradamus Predict Alien Disclosure in 2015?
Ever the cryptic prophet, if only by way of a limited frame of reference for his surely confusing visions of the 21st century, Nostradamus’s prediction for the world in 2015 seems to piggy-back the alien agenda.
To quote a prophetic excerpt relevant to 2015, “Those of the center, with their mystical bird Quetzal, make unite the Eagle of the North with the Condor of the South. We will meet because we are one, like the fingers of the hand.” From one perspective the words suggest a united, happy world. Yet, the New World Order in which mankind is ruled under one leader would also fall under that category. The mystical bird Quetzal, to some, would represent an angel from heaven arriving as a messenger from God. Rapture and the saving of those worthy will occur. To others, the bird is one of the many spaceships that will land in each major city around the globe and the world will witness the most dramatic introduction ever.
The alien agenda conspiracy theory can be further supported as Nostradamus cites a collapsed world economy that fits nicely within a single planetary government under alien rule. The prophet also predicts that one global language will be spoken, thus uniting the peoples of the planet. Some believe the alien’s agenda is not completely selfish and will teach us to use our inherent telepathic abilities. For those who have had interaction and communication with the Greys, like abductee Sylvia Wineroth, the idea of a universal tongue is quite feasible.
“They communicate through telepathy and not with words, but pictures. They pull from your mind’s own references and convey their message using your own mental images.”
She added that while communication was simplified, access of each other’s thoughts prevents us from keeping secrets and the truth is exposed at all times.
5. Alien Communication Via Psychic Mediums
Currently, direct contact with aliens occurs not only with the secret government, but with gifted psychic mediums such as Raymond Richard. He concurs that there is a mutual benefit to an extraterrestrial and human relationship.
“Many of us have off-world, interdimensional origins and connections. I believe that we, Earth and its Life Forms, are the seed planet. On the Earth Plane we exist in a way that we are a source of new life possibilities for other worlds, planes and ourselves. As on Earth, off-world beings see within us a great potential of advancement. As they help us advance, they advance. But for some we are lab rats, the source of new life material for their salvation.” The Greys.
To that end, a world awareness of extraterrestrial life and our ongoing and hopefully changing dynamic is sure to come to light soon.

Naast dat NASA voor ons verborgen houdt wat er zich werkelijk afspeelt op Mars, bestaat ook de absurde situatie bij het ISS ruimtestation.
Begin vorig jaar kondigde NASA aan dat de bestaande camera’s op het ISS ruimtestation zouden verdwijnen in verband met kostenbesparingen. Dit bleek totale onzin te zijn, maar een manier waarop het publiek niet meer zou zien wat er werkelijk gebeurt bij het ISS.
Via onder andere Scott Waring van Ufo Sightings Daily zijn er toen een stroom van protesten naar NASA gestuurd en uiteindelijk mochten de camera’s dan blijven.
Wat nu blijkt, is dat het publiek genoegen moet nemen met een inferieure kwaliteit camera die bovendien ook nog eens om de haverklap wordt uitgeschakeld.
Navolgend beelden die gemaakt zijn door een camera die volgens Scott Waring normaal gesproken alleen beelden beschikbaar stelt aan NASA personeel. De kwaliteit van de opnames is fantastisch en wanneer wij deze op dagelijkse basis zouden zien dan zou waarschijnlijk voorgoed alle onduidelijkheid opgehelderd zijn.
De eerste video laat prachtige heel duidelijke time lapse opnames zien vanuit het ISS en de tweede video laat een deel van de ruimte zien zoals die in de eerste video is vastgelegd.
In de tweede video zie je dat het letterlijk wemelt van de UFO’s in de ruimte.
APOLLO 17 UFO IMAGE Reveals Triangle UFO (TR3B) In All Its Glory, Video, Oct 2015, UFO Sighting News.
APOLLO 17 UFO IMAGE Reveals Triangle UFO (TR3B) In All Its Glory, Video, Oct 2015, UFO Sighting News.
Date of discovery: Unknown Location of discovery: Earths Moon News Source:http://m.disclose.tv/news/apollo_17_ufo_image_the_moon_isnt_a_desolate_place_as_we_have_been_told/122837 NASA Photo: http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a17/AS17-147-22470HR.jpg Fiszal on Twitter shot this over to me and its really mind blowing. In it is alien tech at its finest. Watching the Apollo 17 astronauts on the moon was this TR3B-like craft. However this craft doesn't have a larger center glowing orb, which the TR3B has. The colors of the craft are boggling to say the least, and beautiful. The three glowing engine areas are concurrent with what Bob Lazar says most alien small craft have. Also the round aura the surrounds the craft is also what he says is caused by the propulsion systems of the craft. All evidence points to this being 100% real guys. Not doubts here. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com
Disclose TV States: The moon isn't a desolate place as we have been told, and this image proves it: The moon is far more mysterious than we believe. Even though Apollo 17 was the final mission of NASA’s Apollo program, three other mission allegedly took place in the following years. Of course, these three secret missions, Apollo 18, 19 and 20 are the subject of debate among ufologists and experts. It is believed that on the Apollo 17 mission, which broke several records set by previous flights, including the longest manned lunar landing flight; the longest total lunar surface extravehicular activities; the largest lunar sample return, and the longest time in lunar orbit, US astronauts found extraterrestrial activity on the surface of the moon, not to mention that the astronauts reported being followed during their trip towards the moon by unidentified spacecraft.
Astronaut Gordon Cooper: I witnessed a UFO Landing in 1957
Astronaut Gordon Cooper: I witnessed a UFO Landing in 1957
Leroy Gordon "Gordo" Cooper, Jr., one of the seven original astronauts of ‘Project Mercury’ the first manned space program of the United States witnessed a UFO landing in 1957. He is another astronaut who has seen an actual UFO.
In 1957, when Cooper was part of a special band of test pilots at the Edwards Air Force Base in California, he witnessed first-hand an actual UFO.
Cooper states: "I had a camera crew filming the installation when they spotted a saucer. They filmed it as it flew overhead, then hovered, extended three legs as landing gear, and slowly came down to land on a dry lake bed!
"These guys were all pro cameramen, so the picture quality was very good.
"The camera crew managed to get within 20 or 30 yards of it, filming all the time. It was a classic saucer, shiny silver and smooth, about 30 feet across. It was pretty clear it was an alien craft.
"As they approached closer it took off."
According to Cooper, following standard procedures, when the camera crew game him the recording, he sent it to Washington and reported the UFO encounter. After that, all heck broke loose.
"After a while a high-ranking officer said when the film was developed I was to put it in a pouch and send it to Washington.
"He didn't say anything about me not looking at the film. That's what I did when it came back from the lab and it was all there just like the camera crew reported."
Leroy Gordon "Gordo" Cooper firmly believes that an extraterrestrial vehicle crashed at Roswell, N. Mexico in 1947, Cooper also believes the government recovered several ‘Alien beings’ from the crash.
"I had a good friend at Roswell, a fellow officer. He had to be careful about what he said. But it sure wasn't a weather balloon, like the Air Force cover story. He made it clear to me what crashed was a craft of alien origin, and members of the crew were recovered."
Cooper was among a list of highly ranked officials who believed that the people of this planet have the right to know about Alien life elsewhere in the cosmos.
Cooper added: "It started in World War 2, when the government didn't want people to know about UFO reports in case they panicked," said Cooper. "They would have been fearful it was superior enemy technology that we had no defense against.
"Then it got worse in the Cold War for the same reason.
"So they told one untruth, they had to tell another to cover that one, then another, then another . . . it just snowballed.
"And right now I'm convinced a lot of very embarrassed government officials are sitting there in Washington trying to figure a way to bring the truth out. They know it's got to come out one day, and I'm sure it will.
"America has a right to know!"

Why Is Hillary Clinton Talking To Laurence Rockefeller & Holding A Book About Extraterrestrials?
Why Is Hillary Clinton Talking To Laurence Rockefeller & Holding A Book About Extraterrestrials?
Above is a a picture of Hillary Clinton and Laurence Rockefeller. As most of you probably already know, Hillary is a former Secretary of State for the Obama administration and currently a 2016 presidential candidate. She is also a longtime politician. Laurence Rockefeller was the fourth child of John D. Rockefeller Jr., from the well-known Rockefeller family — American industrialists and political and banking kingpins who have had their hands in the creation of a large portion of the modern day global economy. They were behind the creation of the modern day banking and education systems and the energy and healthcare industries, along with the trilateral commission and the United Nations (just to name a few). They are part of that ‘one percent’ of wealthy people who basically own all of the world’s resources. Many people believe the Rockefeller family is a ‘sinister’ one, secretly conspiring to control the population, destroy/pollute the Earth, and take away our rights. It is believed they hope to carve out the direction of the human race into what’s known as The New World Order. And they are certainly aware of these concerns, if David Rockefeller’s memoirs are any indication:
Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as “internationalists” and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.(source)
There is a lot of evidence suggesting that the Rockefeller family, as well as the Rothschild’s and a few others, have had their hands in some disturbing events relating to environmental destruction, genocide, and more, but that doesn’t mean we should point fingers and condemn every single member of the family. Ultimately, we (the human race) are responsible for what is happening on the planet, what has been happening, and what will continue to happen unless we do something about it.
We live in a world of secrecy, and the mainstream world became more aware of this fact after Edward Snowden released the very first public disclosure of clandestine black budget operations, despite the fact that it had already (partially) been exposed by a few researchers.
We don’t really hear about black budget programs, or about people who have actually looked into them. However, the topic was discussed in 2010 by Washington Post journalists Dana Priest and William Arkin. Their investigation lasted approximately two years and concluded that America’s classified world has“become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.”
Below is a close up on the book taken from the above picture, and beside that is another angle of Hillary carrying the book while walking and talking with Laurence.
Why am I mentioning the black budget world? Because it goes hand in hand with the UFO phenomenon, which is now backed by a tremendous amount of evidence from a number of ‘credible’ people, alongside a mountain of documentation. To learn more about that, you can read this article, or visit the exopolitics section of our website here.
How We Can Tell What Book Hillary Is Holding & Why It’s Important
The book you see Hillary Clinton holding is titled Are We Alone? It was written by Paul Davies, a well respected American physicist who has held professorships at various universities. Most of his research has been in the area of quantum field theory.
The book ponders the ramifications of contact with intelligent extraterrestrials.
If you look closely at the picture (above) that is zoomed in on the book, you can clearly see it matches the back of Davies’ book. You can see the faint star below the eye in both pictures, the bright star that is further away. and the eye on the bottom left.
But how do we know that this is really the book Hillary is holding?
The reason why I chose to write about this is not because the book simply looks like the work of Davies, but because there is a mountain of evidence to validate the fact that Hillary Clinton, as well as Bill Clinton, initiated an effort alongside Laurence Rockefeller to encourage the U.S. government to officially disclose the existence of extraterrestrials and UFOs.
It’s what’s become known as the “Rockefeller Initiative,” a request made by Laurence Rockefeller to the CIA and the US Air Force to declassify and release all information regarding UFOs into the public domain.
You can view all of the documents to and from Laurence Rockefeller to various people regarding this initiativeHERE. They were obtained through the Freedom of Informaiton Act by various researchers, including the Paradigm Research group, who was responsible for the recent Citizen Hearing on Disclosure about UFOs. You can read more about thatHERE.
It’s also noteworthy to mention here that Harvard University psychologist and Pulitzer prize winner Dr. John Mack had a great interest in the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon. He is most noted in ufology for his book titled Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens.
His work was heavily support by Lawrence Rockefeller, as a report published in the US National Library of Medicine states:
His disparate personas—from esteemed professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School to social activist and believer in alien abductions—were as incongruent as the extraordinary assemblage of his supporters, who included venture capitalist Laurence Rockefeller and attorney Daniel Sheehan, best known for his defence of left-leaning causes. (source)
I just want to make it clear that Laurence Rockefeller maintains an obvious interest in this subject, and that the “Rockefeller initiative” was indeed a real one, as illustrated by the documents linked above.
Mack has stated that:
Yes, it’s both. It’s both literally, physically happening to a degree; and it’s also some kind of psychological, spiritual experience occurring and originating perhaps in another dimension. And so the phenomenon stretches us, or it asks us to stretch to open to realities that are not simply the literal physical world, but to extend to the possibility that there are other unseen realities from which our consciousness, our, if you will, learning processes over the past several hundred years have closed us off. (source)(source)
I should mention that Mack was one of the main researchers involved in one of the most astonishing UFO witness cases ever to surface — a supposed encounter with over sixty schoolchildren in the town of Ruwa, Zimbabwe, on September 16th 1994. The children claim to have seen multiple hovering objects that resembled what we would describe as spaceships.
You can learn more about that case, and view some video footage of the children in 1994 all the way up to the present day in THIS article.
There is something else which lends significant credibility to the link between Hillary and UFO research — her involvement with John Podesta, who is Councillor to Barack Obama, former Chief of Staff at the White House under the Clinton administration, and current head of Hillary Clinton’s Campaign.
He has been quoted as saying:
I’m skeptical about many things, including the notion that government always knows best, and that the people can’t be trusted with the truth. The time to pull the curtain back on this subject is long overdue. We have statements from the most credible sources – those in a position to know – about a fascinating phenomenon, the nature of which is yet to be determined.– John Podesta (taken from Leslie Kean’s 2010 New York Times bestseller, UFOs: Generals, Pilots, And Government Officials Go On The Record, for which Podesta wrote the forward)

Meet the Lobbyist Pressuring the US Gov’t to Disclose Extraterrestrial Activity
Meet the Lobbyist Pressuring the US Gov’t to Disclose Extraterrestrial Activity
Lobbyist and Paradigm Research Group Founder, Stephen Bassett (Wikimedia)
Based in the nation’s capitol, Stephen Bassett is a lobbyist working tirelessly for a single, unusual cause: confronting the US Government on the existence of extraterrestrials and their presence here on Earth.
As a political activist and executive director of the Paradigm Research Group (PRG), Basset aims to end the 68-year embargo of classified information relating to alien activity while pressuring President Obama and the Executive Branch to disclose these findings to the public.
Following the statements made to me by Apollo 14 Astronaut Edgar Mitchell on government cover ups and claims of nuclear weapons tampering by extraterrestrials, I was contacted by an associate of Stephen Bassett who expressed gratitude on his behalf for covering those stories.
Seeing an opportunity to dig deeper into these claims, I decided to interview this unique D.C. lobbyist about his beliefs and mission.
Why did you decide to take up this fight and how did you get started?
I made an intellectual decision to engage the extraterrestrial phenomenon field in the winter of 1995 because I believed I could make a difference. My journey began in January of 1996 as a volunteer for the Program for Extraordinary Experience Research founded by Dr. John E. Mack in Cambridge, Massachusetts. While in Cambridge it became clear to me that the extraterrestrial issue could only be resolved by political means.
The government imposed policy of Truth Embargo had to end. In July of 1996 I relocated to the Washington, D.C., area and registered as a lobbyist on the extraterrestrial topic—the first person to do so.
Why? the presence of extraterrestrials is the most important truth in the world today with the greatest potential to alter the present course of human affairs – a course badly in need of a new destination.
What do you see as the ultimate goal?
The Disclosure advocacy movement has a very clear goal: formal acknowledgement by world governments of an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race. At this time the focus of the movement is on the United States and President Obama.
Why is it important that the government fully disclose the existence of extraterrestrials?
It would take a book to properly answer this question but here are some talking points: 1) trust in government has collapsed 2) truth is the antidote to fear 3) a vast military/intelligence/industrial complex has been created that threatens the Republic and this complex is partially a result of government’s desire to secretly address the extraterrestrial reality 4) extraterrestrial derived technologies are being withheld under the embargo that are badly needed to address the human condition 5) the executive and legislative branches of government are being weakened by the policy of embargo 6) a number of other heads of state could end the truth embargo at any time, and this would have serious geopolitical consequences for the United States.
How do you think the public will react to full disclosure?
Public response to disclosure will be overwhelmingly positive. For many, such an announcement will be anticlimactic. Over time, as the complex history of the extraterrestrial engagement emerges, some concerns will be raised. The Internet will provide the means for the human race to quickly arrive at consensus regarding these concerns and direct their governments accordingly.
There will be some negative response and perhaps acting out, but that will not be unusual. The idea that disclosure would disrupt economies, religion, governments, etc. is a concept put forward by the managers of the Extraterrestrial Truth Embargo. It is mostly propaganda.
Which branch of government is privy to the information regarding the presence of extraterrestrials?
The extraterrestrial history and engagement is most likely managed by cross-agency committees within the military/intelligence complex and working under the highest of security classifications. Each committee would address a major aspect of the issue and comprised of representatives from the appropriate agencies and services for that issue. In many or all cases the agency represented may not know of this committee. The committee may not know of other committees involved. Compartmentalization.
This approach is likely quite satisfactory for the military/intelligence community. The problem is politics. The executive and legislative branches of government have certain responsibilities regarding national security matters.
Beginning with the Johnson administration, the decision was made to remove these branches of government over time from the equation. By the time Clinton takes office, the president and the appropriate congressional committees no longer had access. They did not have a need to know and were shut out. Efforts to get information were stonewalled. Efforts to get congressional hearings were blocked. This, of course, raises serious constitutional questions.
What is the Rockefeller initiative and how are the Clintons involved?
The Rockefeller Initiative refers to the formal effort by billionaire Laurance Rockefeller to persuade the Clinton administration to release all documents in government files and grant amnesty to government witnesses who might come forward. This effort began on March 29,1996 and ended in October of 1996. Over 1000 pages of documents were obtained in 2000 by researcher Grant Cameron under the Freedom of Information Act confirming the Rockefeller Initiative.
These documents have been posted on the Internet for the past 15 years. President Bill Clinton, Secretary Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, Dr. John Gibbons and Webster Hubbell were directly involved in the Initiative. Others either directly involved or aware of the Initiative include Clinton’s Chief of Staff Leon Panetta, Clinton’s Chief of Staff Mack McLarty, Vice President Al Gore and Clinton’s Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson.
During the 25 years since the beginning of the Rockefeller Initiative none of these individuals has ever spoken publicly about it in service to their personal and political aspirations. No member of the media has ever posed a single question to any of them about it until April of this year. Since then, several queries have been put to John Podesta and Secretary Clinton by reporters. Neither have responded.
The Clinton connection to the extraterrestrial issue via the Rockefeller Initiative will be the trigger that sets the media free to finally engage and investigate the most important news story in history.
If Secretary Clinton is elected president, would that increase the chances of full disclosure?
Yes, but the Disclosure advocacy movement has no intention of waiting for that uncertain outcome. Barack Obama will be the Disclosure president.
You mentioned Nuclear Weapons tampering as the catalyst for a “media storm.” Is there hard evidence of this phenomenon?
Over the past 15 years considerable evidence has been amassed confirming incidents in which extraterrestrial craft have tampered with nuclear weapons in both the United States and the Soviet Union. The bulk of that evidence has been compiled in the book, UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites – by Robert Hastings. At the center of this evidence is first hand testimony by Air Force officers who were present during these incidents. One such officer, Capt. Robert Salas wrote a book about his experience—Faded Giant. More than a dozen such officers are prepared to testify before Congress under oath.
The fact that this evidence has been out in the public domain for fifteen years and no congressional committee has engaged the issue and no media venue has challenged the Air Force, the Pentagon or the White House to respond is both a disgrace and a symptom of major dysfunction.
Why do you think the term “UFO” is unacceptable when discussing full disclosure?
“UFO” is an anachronistic non-sequitur pushed forward early on by the skeptics and the government. It is as ludicrous as stating the focus of atomic physics is “ITPs”—unidentified tiny particles. The primary technique behind the Truth Embargo is the intellectual ghettoization of the phenomenon and the people who address it. “UFO” is part of the language of that ghetto designed to keep the public, the press, academics and political leaders at bay.
What has been some of the major obstacles in your mission?
The principal obstacle for the Disclosure advocacy moment is the Truth Embargo. Beginning with the early 1950s enormous time and money was invested by the government to create and maintain this embargo, which by the end of the Cold War was thoroughly entrenched. Another major obstacle is the lack of funding for advocacy projects, which is a direct result of the Truth Embargo.
Who are your most important allies?
Important allies of this movement include a growing list of intrepid reporters and editors willing to challenge the Truth Embargo, a number of countries that have proactively released tens of thousands of extraterrestrial phenomenon related files to the public domain, and some former member of Congress, The most important ally is the Internet and the access it provides to the entire world to build awareness and consensus.
The Citizen Hearing on Disclosure or CHD was an event in which 42 military/agency/political witnesses of rank testified for 30 hours over five days before six former members of Congress regarding events and evidence confirming an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
It had never been done before and it was filmed in high definition and webcast worldwide. It was a mock congressional hearing held in the main ballroom of the National Press Club two blocks from the White House and a dozen blocks from the Capitol. It was extensively covered by the media.
The Citizen Hearing on Disclosure was the key that could unlock the Truth Embargo. As planned it was the platform upon which to launch PRG’s Congressional Hearing Initiative. So on November 5, 2014, 10-disk DVD sets with the full video record of the CHD were shipped to every congressional office—535. What viewers of the Citizen Hearing Disclosure would see is very much how a real congressional hearing would play out. The kinds of witnesses, the quality of their testimony, how the committee members would react and what questions would be ask. In short, the CHD took most of the political risk out of a decision by a congressional committee to hold hearings. It has made possible all that was to come.

GEORGE BUSH SENIOR ON UFOS: “AMERICANS CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH”
GEORGE BUSH SENIOR ON UFOS: “AMERICANS CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH”
ORLANDO, FL | Joined by his father George H. W. Bush and his brother George W. Bush during Jeb Bush’s latest fundraiser in Orlando this week, George Bush Sr left the large crowd of Jeb Bush partisans uneasy after responding to a question on UFOs by an activist/journalist which the answer took the crowd, and reporters, completely by surprise.
In hope of helping his son’s Jeb Bush struggling presidential campaign, George Bush Sr and former president George W. Bush have been campaigning behind the presidential candidate in hopes of bringing the Bush family’s name once again behind the Oval office, but some experts believe this kind of incident could cost him the race.
During the fundraiser, a man in the crowd raised a strange question which led to an even more surprising response by the former president and CIA director. The man asked George Bush Sr when the US government would tell Americans the truth about UFOs, to which he responded: “Americans can’t handle the truth” before the questioning was briefly halted by organizers of the event.
The man that asked the question has been identified as Adam Guelch, an active member of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which credits itself as being the world’s oldest and largest UFO phenomenon investigative body
Oddly enough, it is not the first time George Bush Sr has had a controversial opinion on the UFO subject as a similar incident occurred on March 7, 1988, during a trip to a George Bush for President Rally in Rogers, Arkansas.
The to-be president was then asked, in the advent that he became president, if he would tell Americans the truth about the existence of UFOs, to which Bush replied: “I am very careful in public life about dealing with classified information” he told the reporter.
James Adder, journalist for the Arkansas Globe at the time, also asked about Bush’s knowledge about the UFO phenomena, on behalf of which Bush answered: ” I know some. I know a fair amount” before ending the interview.
A loss of cognitive functions, believe experts
George Bush Sr which is in a frail state of health, might be suffering from a neurological disorder such as Alzheimer, which could explain his weird comment, believe some experts.
“At the venerable age of 91, it is quite normal to suffer from a loss of cognitive functions. Clear symptoms are a difficulty to express yourself coherently, loss of memory, dementia. This is possibly the root cause for the awkward comments” explains neurologist John O’Briar.
A Jeb Bush campaign spokesman told reporters George Bush Sr’s comments “did not reflect in any way the opinions of presidential candidate Jeb Bush” and that Jeb Bush supporters “are entitled to their own views on a variety of subjects”.

Myself, boyfriend and friend were traveling south on Highway 101 headed to Coos Bay. It was around 4 A.M when we noticed the battery light come on. As we headed south for a few miles, the cars lights and electronics were flashing on and off and as we pulled over near MP 168 and the cars lights and engine died. We couldn’t restart the vehicle. We exit the car to see if the battery had a bad connection but finally concluded it was the alternator. We then tried calling for a ride or tow but our cell phones had bad service and were about to die. We didn’t know exactly where we were and all of us were very disorientated. We eventually got a call out to someone to come get us from Coos Bay they were on their way.
As I look around the sky had never ever seen the galaxies and constellations so clearly like I had that evening. It was incredible. As I look to the south, my eyes immediately went to what I thought was a star. I quickly learned it wasn’t a star although it could pose like one. It began to make sudden changes in direction and turn abruptly changing color and altitude unlike any thing I have ever seen. I then noticed other star like crafts maybe 15 through out the sky.
They seem to be communication with each other. To my left was a mountain and as I look up I saw a pink like light or flash every so often come from the mountain behind the trees. I then went back to the car to let the others know what i had saw they had seen the same and agreed we were seeing UFOs. We sat and watched from the car with no lights and both doors open.
Both my friend and I could see Black/Grey looking beings move so fast past us to the back of the car. Unafraid I got out of the car and went up as close to the craft as I could for a better look. It was hypnotic the way it moved. My friend got out of the car and came to where I was observing and took a flashlight and shone it at the craft. As she did the craft was coming closer and closer. I told her to stop and sent her back to the car with my boyfriend who was in denial and terrified. I stood there looking for maybe an hour with no noise from craft and no other vehicles came by. My friend and boyfriend said it didn’t move and inch. I had realized I had been hypnotized by the craft. I remember looking down with my eyes and seeing little green beings stacked up in front of me as a flash image. when I physically had looked down at the beings a voice came through my head saying back up hear meaning look up at the small craft and I realized we were communicating telepathically. They had told me they had no emotions and were not going to hurt us. They said they were there to help something to do with the ocean. At some point I came out of the hypnotic state and made my way back to the car.
At that point we were still all trying to figure out exactly where we were when a hiker appeared and asked if we were okay. I said yes and asked exactly where we were and he pulled out his map and said by MP 168. I made no mention of my experience to him but could still see the craft I had communicated with. I went to point it out to the hiker it changed back into a star. As our ride neared we could actually hear the power being recharged back into our car as if a generator was firing up. Then our ride pulled up and we left for Coos Bay as my boyfriend had to be at work.

‘Aliens would NOT encrypt their messages’: Author of The Martian dismisses claims that ET is sending secret codes to Earth
‘Aliens would NOT encrypt their messages’: Author of The Martian dismisses claims that ET is sending secret codes to Earth
'If aliens were attempting to contact us, they would make it as easy as possible,' Andy Weir said. 'I don’t see why they would encrypt their data'
Comes after Edward Snowden said aliens may be encrypting messages
Andy Weir was speaking ahead of the launch of the film, The Martian
Andy Weir is a stickler for accuracy.
A self-described 'hard-core dork', Weir has captivated the world with his largely realistic portrayal of life on Mars in his novel, The Martian.
But while he believes sending man to Mars could soon be possible, he has dismissed claims that aliens are trying to contact Earth as unrealistic.
'If aliens were attempting to contact us they would try to make it as easy as possible,' he told DailyMail.com. 'I don’t see why they would encrypt their data.'
Scroll down for video
Speaking to DailyMail.com, Andy Weir, author of The Martian, says he doesn't believe an advanced alien civilisation is trying to contact Earth. 'If aliens were attempting to contact us they would try to make it as easy as possible,' he said
His views contradict that of NSA whistleblower, Edward Snowden, who last month told Neil deGrasse Tyson he thinks aliens encrypt their communications.
We can't contact them because we don’t have the ability to detect or decode their messages, he said.
'I do not believe aliens are trying to contact us at all,' added The Martian author.
'I think the odds are very high that there is life out there, other than us, and even intelligent life out there.
'However, I also believe that we will never find a way to transmit information faster than light.
Andy Weir's (right) views contradict that of NSA whistleblower, Edward Snowden, who last month told Neil deGrasse Tyson he thinks aliens encrypt their communications. He is the author of the novel, The Martian (left), which the film is based on
The film, based on the book with the same title, stars Matt Damon as Mark Watney, an astronaut who is stranded on Mars after a storm causes an evacuation of a human habitat
'So if there is a civilisation out there that’s hundreds of millions of light years away, then it will take hundreds of millions of years before we can interact with them. So we’re not going to run into that.'
Weir was speaking ahead of the launch of The Martian in cinemas on October 2nd in the US and September 30 in the UK.
The California-based author's book has been adapted for the big screen by Ridley Scott, providing a stark account of one man's attempt to survive on Mars.
It stars Matt Damon as Mark Watney, an astronaut who is stranded on Mars after a storm causes an evacuation of a human habitat.
'In the face of overwhelming odds, I'm left with only one option,' says Watney. 'I'm going to have to science the s*** out of this.'
DAILYMAIL.COM Q&A WITH THE MARTIAN AUTHOR ANDY WEIR
Who did you hope to impress the most with your book?
I never really thought of that. At the time I wrote the book, I was just writing it for what I thought was a niche demographic... I think I hope to impress the hard-core science dorks. I want them to grudgingly admit to themselves and others that the science is fairly accurate.
How much did Ridley Scott have to change the science from the book for the film?
They didn’t change much really. The science is still accurate, they just don’t bother to go through all the detailed explanations that I do in the book. They just say, here’s how it is, here’s what he does, here’s what he builds. If you care enough to go and check all the numbers, you’ll find out it is correct.
Will there be a follow up to The Martian?
No, I have never come up with a good idea for a sequel. It would be a let-down in some way and would be less interesting that the original book, and I want to avoid that.
I’m working on my next novel now. It’s more soft science fiction but it is technically accurate. It has aliens and faster than light travel and stuff like that. It’s titled Zhek, and I hope to have it out in late 2016. And that’s all I’m saying for now.
What annoys you the most about critical feedback on The Martian?
One thing I am sick of is people constantly comparing it to Interstellar, because Matt Damon played a role and Jessica Chastain is involved. And yeh ok, Matt Damon played a spy in the Bourne movies, and Jessica Chastain played a spy, so I guess the Martian must be a spy movie. It’s a little annoying.
Would you accept a free ticket to go to Mars?
Nope. I write about great people, I’m not one of them. Absolutely not. In the words of Great Britain’s own Pink Floyd, I am an Earth-bound misfit.
Weir claims the film is about 95 per cent accurate in terms of the science involved. 'Accuracy was definitely one of my primary goals when writing the book,' he said. 'All the challenges, all the conflict, all the problems [Watney] has are based on the nitty-gritty details of space and Mars'

'All the challenges, all the conflict, all the problems [Watney] has are based on the nitty-gritty details of space and Mars. If you don’t get the nitty-gritty details right, then what’s the point?'
The botanist only has a few weeks of supplies to provide himself subsistence for the four years he would need to stay alive to be rescued.
Watney hatches a plan to grow his own food by converting the floor of the research station into a field.
The film shows him using sprouts from potatoes the astronauts brought along for a Thanksgiving meal.
This involved calculating how many calories he would need to survive four years - 2,137,500 - and how many potatoes that requires, as well as how much land would be needed.
To map Watney's 3,200 mile journey across Mars, Weir studied Nasa satellite images and used Google Mars to analyse the planet's elevation

HOW LONG WOULD A MANNED MARS MISSION TAKE?
Owing to the orbits of Earth and Mars, there are specific windows of opportunity when a mission can take place.
Our planets come as close to each other as 33.9 million miles (54.6 million km), but can be as distant as 250 million miles (400 million km).
For this reason spacecraft to Mars, such as the Curiosity rover, have to launch in certain windows when the planets are aligned.
The next window is open from January 2016 to April 2016, and will see the launch of two more missions to the red planet.
For a future manned mission, they will need to launch out in one of the windows and return in another.
Just getting there will take up to nine months.
The astronauts will then be there waiting for a year until they can come back, again taking up to nine months - a total of around three years.
In reality, Mars is a relatively ideal place to put up a greenhouse, according to Nasa.
The day and night cycle is almost identical to Earth's, and the total solar energy hitting the surface is enough for a plant's needs.
Weir also had to calculate out the chemical reaction that would allow Watney to make 600 litres of water out of hydrazine and CO2.
To map Watney's 3,200 mile journey across Mars, Weir studied Nasa satellite images and used Google Mars to analyse the planet's elevation.
It shows him being flung about by storms and a powerful explosion that throws him out of his habitat. At one point, he frantically attempts to seal a crack in his helmet using duct tape.
But there are some glaring omissions, such as the effect of radiation. All of the equipment was designed to withstand the environment, but space suits typically don't offer much protection.
A three-year Mars mission would violate the total dose requirements for younger astronauts. It remains to be seen how the film deals with this issue, if it does at all.
Matt Damon must find a way to survive on Mars in The Martian
Nasa's discovery of signs of liquid water on the red planet last week has thrown Mars back into the spotlight. Pictured are marks on Mars, which lengthen and darken as the seasons change. Scientists say these are first evidence of their kind ever found on another planet and they're the first step in confirming life can exist there
'I made deliberate concessions for dramatic purposes, notably the sandstorm at the beginning of the book.
'A real Martian sandstorm wouldn’t cause damage like that, it could barely knock down a piece of paper. And people will surely call me out on that, and they have.
'But it’s a story, and the point is to entertain.'

But while Mars fascinates Weir, he would not accept a free ticket to travel there in the future.

6 TIPS FOR SURVIVING ON MARS, BY 'THE MARTIAN' AUTHOR ANDY WEIR
1 - You’re going to need a pressure vessel
Being on the surface of Mars is almost the same as being in deep space. You better bring a nice, sturdy container to hold air in.
2 - You’re going to need oxygen
There are lots of ways to strip the carbon off carbon dioxide and liberate the oxygen. You could have complex mechanical oxygenators or you could just grow some plants.
3 -You’re going to need radiation shielding
The easiest way to do that is to bury your base in Martian sand and rocks. They’re not exactly in short supply, so you can just make the pile deeper and deeper until it’s blocking enough.
4 - You’re going to need water
All you need to do is scoop it up, heat it, and strain out the water. Once you have a good supply, a simple distillery will allow you to reuse it over and over.
5 - You’re going to need food
Just think of how much food you eat in a year and imagine how much space it takes to grow it. Hope you like potatoes.
6 - You’re going to need energy.
Mars’s average daily temperature is -50C (-58F), so it’ll be a continual energy drain to keep warm.
Where in the Solar System is it Possible for Alien Life?
Where in the Solar System is it Possible for Alien Life?
The prospect of seasonal liquid water flows on the surface of Mars instantly revived discussions about whether the planet most like Earth in the solar system could host present day life. But it’s not the only place where scientists are looking.
At a congressional hearing this week, scientists listed their top four candidates for extraterrestrial life in the solar system. Other researchers are scanning radio and optical emissions from distant stars to hunt for technically advanced civilizations. In the future, scientists plan to look for chemical signs of life in the atmospheres of planets circling nearby stars.
Here’s a look at the most likely spots for life among Earth’s neighbors.

Without hesitation, NASA's chief scientist Ellen Stofan told lawmakers that Mars is her top candidate for finding life beyond Earth.
"We now know that Mars was once a water world, much like Earth, with clouds and a water cycle and indeed some running water currently on the surface. For hundreds of millions of years about half the northern hemisphere of Mars had an ocean possibly a mile deep in places," Stofan said.
"Life as we know it requires liquid water that has been stable on the surface of a planet for a very long time. That's why Mars is our primary destination in our search for the life in the solar system," she added.
NASA's next rover, scheduled to launch in 2020, will be outfitted with instruments to look for ancient microbial life, though Stofan, a geologist by training, believes it will take astronauts on Mars, cracking opening rocks and running experiments, to make the definitive discovery.

The Jupiter moon Europa is roughly the size of Earth's moon, yet it hosts a salty ocean that has twice as much water as Earth's oceans.
The Europa sea contacts a rocky core, which presents suitable conditions for life to brew. The moon also has abundant sources of energy. That leaves one big question in the search for life: Does it have organics?
A mission targeted for launch in the 2020s will attempt to find organics that have welled up from the sea into cracks on the moon’s icy surface. It also will search for a mysterious plume that may be behind a 2012 Hubble Space Telescope detection of water vapor above Europa’s southern polar region.
Scientists also want to know how deeply the ocean is buried beneath Europa's frozen crust.
"That will be important for coming up with a strategy to search for life there," Cornell University planetary scientist Jonathan Lunine told the House Committee on Space, Science and Technology.
"There's a lot of groundwork that has to be done on Europa ... if there are fresh organics in the cracks, that’s a good place to go," he said.

One of the biggest surprises from NASA’s Cassini mission at Saturn was the discovery of plumes shooting into space from the moon Enceladus, now known to host a global subsurface ocean.
"Make a list of the requirements for terrestrial-type life -- liquid water, organics, minerals, energy and chemical gradients and Cassini has found evidence for all of them in the plume," said Cornell University’s Jonathan Lunine.
"The most straightforward way to look for life is fly through the plume, which Cassini has done lots of time, with modern instruments that can detect signatures of life," he said.

Saturn's largest moon Titan presents intriguing prospects for life, though it likely would be very different than anything found on Earth.
It is the only moon in the solar system with a thick, protective atmosphere. Cassini and its companion Huygens lander revealed a world with methane clouds, rain, gullies, river valleys and methane-ethane seas.
"We cannot resist asking whether some biochemically novel form of life might have arisen in this exotic, frigid environment," Cornell University's Jonathan Lunine said. "Titan is a test for the universality of life as an outcome of cosmic evolution."
To look for life, Lunine said a spacecraft would likely drop a capsule into a Titan sea so that can float across the surface and make measurements.
"We don't know what we're looking for here, so a generalized search for patterns and molecular structures and abundances that indicate deviation from abiotic (non-biological) chemistry is appropriate," he said.
Photo: Scientists assembled this mosaic of near-infrared images of Titan taken by the Saturn-orbiting Cassini spacecraft.
So far, we only know life exists on one planet, Earth, but scientists don't know how it started or even if it had one or more false starts before ultimately taking hold.
"Since Earth remains for now the only instance of an inhabited planet, the search for life also requires that we further develop our understanding of life on Earth," NASA's lead scientist Ellen Stofan said.
"We know life is tough, tenacious, metabolically diverse and highly adaptable to local environmental conditions," she added.
Scientists have discovered microbial life that consumes what would be considered toxic to others and life that can withstand radiation, cold, heat and other extreme conditions.
"We do know that life evolved very rapidly here on Earth after conditions stabilized. That's a factor that makes us optimistic that there's life elsewhere in the solar system," Stofan said.
Clues about how life started on Earth may be preserved on the moon, which holds the geologic record of the first billion years of Earth.
"That's the time that life began on Earth. To understand what was happening geologically, we can do no better than turn to the moon," Cornell University's Jonathan Lunine said.
"We really have no laboratory model for how life began on the Earth," he added. "One of the reasons for going out to environments in our solar system where the conditions for life are apparently there and possible is to see whether life actually began, to do the experiment in the field rather than in the laboratory."
"It is remarkable that we have found four destinations in our solar system where life may actually exist, or have existed for quite some time in the past. Now is the time to actually go search," he said.

INCREDIBLE ALIEN CRAFT WITNESSED BY HUNDRETS OVER ENGLAND
.COSFORD INCIDENT
.
MARCH 1993……SOMERSET ENGLAND
During the last two days of March 1993 there was a mass UFO sighting in the United Kingdom that has become known as the ‘Cosford Incident’ or the ‘British UFO Mystery’. The first sighting took place in Somerset at approximately 8:30 pm on March 30th followed by another sighting in Quantock Hills at 9:00 pm. For the next two days hundreds of reports poured into local police stations and the MoD. Many of the reports were filed by police officers and military personnel. It has been confirmed that many more people in all walks of life, police, military and the public saw the UFO but made no attempt to report it to the authorities. The vast majority of the reports described a triangular shaped craft with white lights at each point. Many of the reports included people that had seen the UFO at very close range, within 200 – 400 feet from the ground. One of the most intriguing reports came from a family in Straffordshire who saw the object so low that at one point they thought it had landed in a field. They described the UFO as triangular or diamond shaped. They immediately gave chase in their car to the suspected landing sight but had no luck in finding the object. They did describe a: “low humming sound, a very low frequency sound. They said you didn’t just hear the sound you actually felt it, like standing in front of a bass speaker.”No one is sure if there is any significance to the fact that this mass sighting happened three years to the day of the famous mass sighting termed the Belgium Wave, which had more than 1000 witnesses from virtually every walk of life!
The UFO proceeded to fly over two military bases, RAF Cosford and RAF Shawbury, it was seen by at least three people on guard patrol at Cosford. These individuals immediately filed reports which is standard procedure for anything unusual in the air over any military base. They checked radar, there was nothing scheduled to fly that night over or near the bases, not military or civilian aircraft, the radar returns were all negative. A detailed investigation was launched into the the potential radar findings and oddly enough one of the primary radars heads was either intentionally disabled or had been disable prior to the UFO incident, rendering any potential radar information inconclusive.
Independent expert verification…
They phoned RAF Shawbury approximately 12 miles away from Cosford. The base meteorologist took their call, he was a man with about 8 years experience and had been looking into the night sky preparing for the next days weather report. To his absolute amazement he began to see a solid object in the sky that he described as a craft of more than 200 feet long. He further described it as being midway between a Hercules C-130 Military Transport plane and a 747 flying directly over the RAF Shawbury. He also described the low hum. For all intents and purposes the meteorologist acted as an independent expert witness that verified both the craft and the sound.
Beam if light – Impossible acceleration…
One of the most intriguing aspects of the meteorologist report is that he claimed that the craft was putting out a beam of light directed at a field just beyond the perimeter of the base fence. The light was tracking back and forth in a sweeping motion as if it were attempting to find or detect something on the ground. . After sometime the beam of light retracted and the craft moved off. It was estimated that the craft was moving no more than 20 -40 mph. Eventually the craft shot off at a very high mach acceleration in a split second.

Terwijl de wereld totaal verblind verder raast richting afgrond lijkt het alsof er tegelijkertijd op aarde steeds meer buitenaardse activiteit plaatsvindt.
Overal ter wereld zie je moederschepen verborgen in wolken en kleine verkenners die opduiken alsof ze uit het niets komen.
Geleerden zoals Stephen Hawking zeggen al langere tijd dat buitenaardsen misschien helemaal niet zo vriendelijk zijn als velen denken. Dat wij heel voorzichtig moeten zijn in het maken van contact omdat wij niet weten wat hun intentie is.
Wanneer je echter je ogen een beetje openhoudt en ziet hoe fenomenaal veel UFO-verschijningen er het afgelopen jaar zijn geweest dan wordt vrij duidelijk dat ze geen kwaad in de zin hebben want anders hadden wij dat allang gemerkt.
Waar het meer op lijkt, is dat men zich bij andere buitenaardse beschavingen behoorlijk druk maakt over de stand van zaken op deze planeet die van de ene crisis in de andere rolt en wordt geregeerd door psychopaten.
Als wij zelf buitenaards zouden zijn en de situatie op deze wereld in ogenschouw zouden nemen dan zouden wij ons waarschijnlijk ook zorgen maken.
Waar het alle schijn van heeft is dat deze buitenaardsen nu in behoorlijk grote getale richting aarde zijn gekomen om in ieder geval vinger aan de pols te houden. Gecombineerd met dat ze vanwege de frequentie op aarde die verhoogt, voor de mens beter zichtbaar worden.
Een fenomeen waarbij je in een wolkeloze hemel een UFO met giga snelheid in de wolk ziet verdwijnen om er niet meer uit te komen.
Het laatste jaar is een enorme toename van vreemde UFO-wolken op te merken. Vreemd uitziende wolkenformaties, vaak gepaard gaand met donder en bliksem, in een verder vrijwel wolkenloze hemel.
Voor degenen die dit niet gezien hebben of niet meer weten navolgend een korte video-opname:
Bij de gangbare media werd dit fenomeen omschreven als een wolk die door mensen met het einde der tijden werd geassociëerd en als "interessant natuurfenomeen".
Dat het iets meer was dan een interessant natuurfenomeen blijkt onder andere uit de volgende e-mail die wij ontvingen van een lezer (dank!):
Hier een filmpje op you tube gepubliceerd op 15 Sept 2015.
Als je goed kijkt zie je aan het eind van het filmpje links iets omhoog schieten en daarna rechts vlak voor het einde iets naar beneden schieten wat een ufo zou kunnen zijn. Een mooi natuur fenomeen maar ze hebben het niet over het object dat er door vliegt dus niemand is het nog op gevallen . Mij ook niet maar mijn zoon zag toen hij mee keek met mij dus wilde ik dit even delen met jullie.
Een link naar het filmpje en een paar foto's met het object . Ik heb er een pijltje bijgezet.
Hier volgen de twee foto’s met daarop aangegeven waar de UFO zich bevond:
Ook hier hebben we niet te maken met een uitzonderlijk natuurfenomeen, maar met een in de wolken verstopt moederschip, met daar omheen de bekende kleinere ufo’s.
Die kleinere ufo’s, meestal rond van vorm en vaak oranje of wit gekleurd, duiken overal op, zomaar uit het niets. Het ene moment is er niets, dan zijn ze er en dan zijn ze ook zo weer weg.
Navolgende video die enkele dagen geleden is gemaakt aan de kust van de Amerikaanse staat Florida, laat dit ook zien.
Van het ene moment op het andere hingen ze boven de zee en bleven daar ongeveer drie tot vier minuten hangen, waarna ze ook weer net zo snel verdwenen.
Terwijl buitenaardsen zich klaarblijkelijk zorgen maken over ons, houdt een select groepje aardlingen zich liever bezig met hun hebberigheid en het onderwerpen van hun medemens. Zo vindt bijvoorbeeld het bedrijf Nestlé dat het recht opwater geen basis mensenrecht is.
Toen NASA afgelopen week een persconferentie hield om aan te kondigen dat ze op Mars water hadden ontdekt, was Nestlé er dan ook als de kippen bij om hiervan te profiteren.
NASA And 20th Century Fox Decided It Was Time To Announce Water On Mars! Oct 2015, UFO Sighting News.
NASA And 20th Century Fox Decided It Was Time To Announce Water On Mars! Oct 2015, UFO Sighting News.
Release date of movie: Oct 1, 2015 Name of movie: The Martian
Yeah guys, I went to see the movie The Martian today and yes it was awesome. No spoilers don't worry, but I want to tell you about NASA and 20th Century Fox cooperating with one another. Water on Mars announcement happened on Sept 27, 2015. The Martian release date was Oct 1, 2015. Less than a week apart. If it wasn't for this movie, NASA would not have made the announcement at all! Since when does show business Hollywood types dictate what NASA does or doesn't do? Well, they did it. What did they do? They cooperated together not just to help make the movie more realistic, but also NASA announced just one week before the movie release date that they found water on Mars. This is NASA trying to drum up publicity for The Martian movie. This is evidence NASA and 20th Century Fox decides what NASA announces. NASA didn't decide this alone. They knew that if NASA made a big announcement about water on Mars, it would drive a lot of publicity for the movie, in turn making 20th Centery Fox money. Conspiracy? Yeah...there sure has hell is one here.

NASA Lied About Public Being Allowed To See The HD Cams! Oct 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Oct 2, 2015 Location of sighting: Earths orbit Source: http://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ This footage was taken for Youtube user AstronautiCAST which says its the official channel of the Italian Astronautics and Space (ISAA), with AstronautiCAST podcasts and other video material produced by the association. The footage seems to be taken from the time-lapse of some of the NASA HD videos that are only shared with employees and not allowed for the public. You can see many UFOs shooting around in different directions at different speeds. This footage is from one of the two 7 million dollar HD cameras that were installed earlier this year. NASA promised the public that they would be allowed to use them. NASA lied. I have never seen such HD footage on the live cam as of yet and I check almost daily. Some of you may remember when I caused a big tuff when NASA wanted to shut down the public live ISS cams, but I got everyone to organize on the site and send @NASA messages to tell them to leave it up for the public. Needless to say, we won, but since then half the footage we see is now black or blue solid screens, and now we discover NASA isn't really allowing us to see this HD footage at all. I will put the original HD video below for you to see for yourself how high the quality is compared to the live cam we get. NASA cheated us...the public. They promised we could keep on the live cams and use the HD cams, this promise was broken. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com

Strange Lights Seen Over Houston Texas On March 30, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Strange Lights Seen Over Houston Texas On March 30, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: March 30, 2015 Location of sighting: Houston, Texas, USA Source: MUFON #65255 The shaking of the video indicates that its a very far distance away, and probably above, not in front of the person. Try holding a camera above your head so you can see the screen for 2 minutes, it will kill your arms, thus shaking. Also zooming in to things far away causes more shaking. The shaking looks real, not faked. The UFO changes luminosity and shape, making me believe this is 100% real. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com Eyewitness states: At approximately 2:30am on March 30th, 2015 I was outside and noticed a light in the sky. At first I thought it was a star, but then I noticed that it was changing color. I grabbed my camcorder out of the truck and started recording. As I zoomed in, it disappeared from my viewfinder twice. The third time I tried to record I was able to record a metallic gray spherical object in the sky. I recorded it for a little over 3 and a half minutes and during this time, it morphed it's shape, taking on the appearance of the moon at one point. It hovered in the sky above me for quite some time, then it moved slowly across the sky toward the west. it stayed in the sky until about 4:30am, until it began to move again. This time it disappeared into the early morning sky. I was in shock and awe. I am lucky that I had some charge left on my camcorder. Although you can't see in the film, what I saw with the naked eye, I am sure someone might be able to brighten the video enough to identify it as the object I described. I didn't get any ill feelings toward the object and it didn't frighten me. It was more like a sensation of finding out something existed that I never thought I would find out. This was the main object that I paid attention to, however after reviewing my video, I saw that there were several other objects in the sky. I would gladly like someone to take the video and give me a logical explanation for what these objects are. Since the night of March 30th, 2015, I have seen these strange lights in the Northwest Skies of Houston, Texas almost every night. I have since purchased a night-scope to try to capture more video, since I've heard that the nightscope technology might be alien technology, I figured I'd fight fire with fire. I am making an independent feature length film and have published this video on youtube as my trailer or preview of the film.
The West Wales flap of 1977 is second only to the Warminster “Thing” in British UFO history. Documents released in 2005 have revealed how a secret military investigation was launched into claims that alien craft and their tall humanoid occupants were taking a particular interest in the Welsh coastline. DAVID CLARKE investigates.
The death in 2003 of veteran Welsh UFOlogist Randall Jones Pugh passed without notice within the UK UFO community. But less than three decades ago Pugh, a retired vet, was a leading spokesman for the subject and the key promoter of Britain’s hottest new UFO “flap”. This was focussed upon a strip of rugged coastline within the Pembroke National Park near Pugh’s home which became, for a short time in 1977, the scene of strange encounters which made national headlines.
Earlier in the year Pugh, in an interview for a local paper, discussed sightings in 1976 and predicted there soon would be a spate of similar events in West Wales. But even he was not prepared for what happened next. During lunchtime on 4 February 15 schoolchildren at Broad Haven Primary School said they watched a silver cigar-shaped UFO in fields behind their school. Some of the group, aged from nine to 11 years, claimed they saw a silver man with pointed ears emerge from the craft. Their stories were dismissed as fantasy but the children were so adamant they had seen something unusual they handed in a petition to the police station. Their head teacher later asked them to draw the UFO and was amazed at how similar their pictures were.
Randall Pugh was instrumental in bringing the story to the attention of the media and it became an overnight sensation. Journalists and TV crews flocked to the Welsh coast from all corners of the UK. Flying saucers were soon the main topic of conversation in the principality. By May straightforward lights in the sky had been replaced by stories of giant humanoid figures in spacesuits, similar to those used by astronauts, seen prowling around remote countryside late at night.
A whole gamut of Fortean phenomena appeared to cluster around the Coombs family at Ripperston Farm. Here a dairyman, Billy Coombs, his wife Pauline and their five children told of repeated close encounters with UFOs and their occupants which left a trail of burned out cars and TV sets and spiralling electricity bills. Pauline had a sighting almost every month and one occasion the car she was using to drive her children along a country lane was pursued by a fiery object shaped like a rugby football. Later the couple claimed a herd of cows were inexplicably teleported from a locked field into to an adjacent farmyard. But the most terrifying incident of all happened in the early hours of 23 April as the couple watched a late movie. Suddenly they were terrified by the appearance of a 7ft tall figure in a spacesuit, whose blank face was framed in the window of their sitting room. While later investigators were sceptical of some of the more sensational claims, others were impressed by the genuine terror displayed by the couple at the time. Indeed the policeman who responded to their 999 call said in 1996 that in all his 26 years service “that was the most frightened family I have ever been to see.” There was no doubt the couple had seen something unusual, but what?
The weird events at Ripperston Farm were chronicled in three books one of which, The Welsh Triangle by Peter Paget had been partly inspired by The Sun headline “Spaceman Mystery of the Terror Triangle.” What exactly constituted the Welsh version of the Bermuda Triangle was never entirely clear, but it included most of the southeast corner of St Bride’s Bay along with the towns of Milford Haven and Haverfordwest. The third and last book to chronicle the Welsh weirdness was The Dyfed Enigma, produced by Pugh in collaboration with cryptozoologist Ted Holliday, which linked the UFO stories with Welsh fairy folklore and ley-lines.
Journalist Hugh Turnbull, who chronicled the events for the local weekly, Western Telegraph, told me his pet theory was that “something military” lay behind the sightings. A more extreme version, favoured by Paget, was that aliens had established an underground base beneath the Stack Rocks in St Bride’s Bay, where UFOs had been seen to hover and disappear. This form of speculation – shared by some local people - was founded on the fact that within a 20 mile radius of Broad Haven, where many of the reports were concentrated, there were a range of military bases. To the north was the top secret rocket testing station at Aberporth while Brawdy, near St David’s, trained pilots on Hawker Hunters and housed both a Tactical Weapons Unit and a US Navy underwater research station – in reality a unit which tracked the movements of Soviet submarines using a network of microphones.
RAF Squadron Leader Tim Webb, who oversaw pilot training from the base, said the description of the suits worn by the “spacemen” did not match anything used by base personnel. By a curious coincidence Webb’s son Michael happened to be one of the youngsters who claimed they saw a UFO land behind the primary school at Broad Haven. “I believe him implicitly,” he told The Observer at the time. “I’ve yet to see a UFO but I think there has to be something supernatural or paranormal.” Heady words for an RAF spokesman who would normally be expected to debunk sightings of flying saucers!
Meanwhile, demands were increasing for an official inquiry into the West Wales UFOs. One witness, hotelier Rosa Granville, asked her MP Nicholas Edwards – later to become Welsh Secretary in Mrs Thatcher’s Cabinet – to demand answers from the Ministry of Defence. Mrs Granville ran the Haven Fort Hotel which stands in a dramatic location overlooking St Bride’s Bay. Although she was aware of a legend about a ‘white lady’ ghost haunting the grounds this did not prepare her for the events of 19 April 1977. In the earlier hours of that morning Mrs Granville was disturbed by a strange buzzing noise and, on looking out, saw an oval-shaped brightly-lit UFO and two human-like figures in boiler suits that appeared to be measuring something. The following day, she found a flattened area of grass in the area which, it emerged, overlooked a field which contained a bunker used by the Royal Observer Corps.
Within days of the MP’s intervention a Squadron Leader from RAF Brawdy visited the hotel to interview the owners. According to their account, he told them there “absolutely nothing at RAF Brawdy” that could account for the UFO. And, Mrs Granville claimed “he asked me not to say anything about the incident to anyone, as he thought it was best not to alarm the general public.” However, in his reply to the MP the Parliamentary Under Secretary for Defence James Wellbeloved, said that apart from Mrs Granville’s report the MOD had “no record of unusual activity in the area.”
But behind the public platitudes it seems a discreet investigation was indeed going on, hidden even from the politicians. For on 14 June 1977 the head of S4 (Air), the MoD branch which dealt with UFOs, took the unusual step of asking the RAF Police, in the form of the Provost & Security Service (P&SS) to make a “discreet enquiry” into events in Wales. The P&SS are responsible for policing the RAF and have a section which investigates complaints about low-flying aircraft. Early in 1977 they moved to a secretive facility deep in the Wiltshire countryside called RAF Rudloe Manor. UFO authors Tim Good and Nick Redfern have claimed that Rudloe – rather than the UFO desk in Whitehall - has for many years been the real HQ for the British Government’s UFO taskforce.
The papers released this year throw new light on claims of a conspiracy involving Rudloe Manor. While they do support the claim that P&SS were involved in secret UFO work they suggest it was hardly a priority for them. In their letter to P&SS the MOD wrote: “We have not invoked the assistance of P&SS before on UFOs…and the last thing I want to do is involve you in extraneous problems which would divert you from your more immediate work on low flying complaints.” It goes on to ask them to assess “the volume of local interest and/or alarm and whether there is a readily discernable rational explanation, or whether there is prima facie evidence for a more serious specialist enquiry.” And the writer went to some length to emphasise his request must be treated in confidence, adding: “I have not even told the Minister I am consulting you.”
Due to the covert nature of the investigation, no final report on the P&SS investigation of events in the Welsh Triangle has survived. But in December 1977, in a secret briefing on UFO policy submitted to the MOD’s Defence Intelligence Staff, the head of S4 wrote: “There is always a steady public interest in UFOs and from time to time it tends to increase unaccountably…[in the summer] there was some concern in Wales, although the RAF Police thought this could have been the work of a practical joker.”
The fact that inquiries led the RAF Police to suspect a hoaxer may have been responsible for some of the Welsh UFOs fits with a strong local rumour which persists to this day. Hilary Evans, who debunked some of the more exaggerated stories in an article published in 1982, heard that two members of a round table club were responsible for the sightings of “spacemen” at the Haven Fort Hotel and Ripperston Farm. They came up with the idea after borrowing silver-lined asbestos suits worn by local oil refinery workers for a fancy dress evening in Broad Haven shortly after the children’s sighting.
In 1996 BBC presenter Ray Gosling tracked down one of the jokers for a Radio 4 documentary on the West Wales flap. Shortly afterwards Glyn Edwards, a member of Milford Haven’s Round Table confessed his part to the Western Mail. He described the spaceman outfit as having: “… a solid in-built helmet so I would have looked about 7ft tall. Alien sightings were all the rage, so I took a stroll around for a bit of fun. I remember when I visited the garden of a certain lady, who later called the police, that I had to dive into a hedge because she appeared to be aiming a rifle or a shotgun at me.”
But despite all Gosling’s attempts to persuade the witnesses from Broad Haven school to confess, the boys – now in their forties – stuck doggedly by their story. One of them, David Davies, told him: “I did see something unexplained that day and I will stick to that story for the rest of my life.” The Welsh Triangle may hold onto its secrets for some years to come.

'I was bullied over childhood UFO encounter,' reveals witness to famous Welsh 'Broad Haven Triangle' incident
'I was bullied over childhood UFO encounter,' reveals witness to famous Welsh 'Broad Haven Triangle' incident
More than 12 schoolchildren saw a mysterious craft outside their school - now one has revealed the lifelong effect of this historical sighting
Dave Davies, 49, has spent more than three decades on a quest for answers after witnessing one of Britain's most famous UFO incidents.
Now he has exclusively revealed the personal toll he paid for his refusal to stay quiet about a series of strange events which took place in the skies over rural Wales.
The so-called Broad Haven Triangle encounters have gone down in history as one of the great unexplained British UFO encounters.
In 1977, some 14 schoolchildren saw a strange cigar-shaped craft touch down in a field near Broad Haven primary school, in Penbrokeshire, with some kids claiming to have witnessed a weird silver creature clamber out of the vehicle.
The same bizarre craft and its mysterious driver were also spotted by teachers and dinner ladies.
Dave Davies: UFO encounter has sparked a lifelong thirst to find the truth
This astonishing incident is back in the news after Mirror Online revealed allegations that the Ministry of Defence covered up a top secret investigation into the incident, a revelation which prompted a Tory peer to call for a fresh investigation.
But for Davies, the issue has never been far from his mind.
"I think about it all the time," he told Mirror Online.
"The sighting despite only lasted a few seconds but is burned on my memory like a photograph.
"I've spent my entire life and countless thousands of pounds trying to find answers about what we saw that day.
"It has been a lifetime's fascination driven by a desire to get to the truth."
Now semi-retired after being hit by arthritis, Davies has been reflecting on a difficult adolescence following the UFO encounter.
Children drew these astonishing pictures of the unidentified craft
At the time, he lived in a single parent family and his "highly supportive" mother believed every word of his story.
But although villagers in the tiny town greeted Davies' stories with a mixture of "support and disbelief", his secondary school classmates were less understanding.
"I suffered years of bullying and abuse during my secondary school years," he recalled.
"Some of the bullying was horrific but however much I was beaten I would never recant on my account.
"Even at the age of 11 I refused to abandon my principles. These days I'm quite defensive over the matter."
Although it is not clear exactly where the cigar-shaped craft came from, many UFO observers believe it was linked to RAF Brawdy, a nearby airforce base.
"My personal inclination is that our particular sighting had a terrestrial origin, however I have never ruled anything out," Davies continued.
Davies' story will be told in full at an event at London's Churchill War Rooms tonight for the launch of Neil Spring's book.
In his own words
The unwitting UFO spotter gave writer Spring the following statement, which details exactly what he saw that day.
"The object was pearlescent silvery-grey, approximately 40 feet long, torpedo/cigar-shaped with an upper domed section that covered the central third of the vehicle and which was topped with a red pulsating light.
"I was the last of a dozen or so children to see the object on that day.
"Our sighting was not the last visit to the school though and unbeknown to the children and most of the small community the craft returned a few days later and was on this occasion seen by a teacher and three of the canteen staff.
"I have never in the last 38 years exaggerated or sensationalised the account of what I saw and have never suggested that what we saw was of extra-terrestrial origin.
"Many suggestions have been made that what we saw was either an agricultural vehicle or an aircraft from nearby RAF Brawdy.
Brooding: Large waves crash over Church Rock at Broad Haven, Pembrokeshire
"I'd like to state categorically that this is not the case as the majority of the children at the school, myself included, came from farming backgrounds and would have been able to identify any agricultural vehicle and because of Brawdy's proximity we were also familiar with almost every RAF aircraft in the skies.
"It was also independently verified that no vehicle was at the location of the sighting on that day and that because of the boggy ground it was impossible for any vehicle to be there."
He also confirmed that Ministry of Defence staff visited the school to interview the child UFO witnesses.
At the time, the MoD did not admit to running an official probe into the affair.
