For almost 60 years the public has been hearing about flying saucers and then UFOs. Press coverage has ebbed and flowed, but polls have always shown a very high awareness score. Motion pictures, tabloids, and TV programs have picked up the slack with a mélange of fiction and some truth. Unfortunately, much of what has been told by the “powers that be” has been false. Many different government agencies have shared in the misrepresentation and have provided outright LIES as well. The press and other academic and scientific groups have often blindly accepted and promulgated nonsense without any effort to get at truth. Webster's Dictionary defines LIE as an untrue statement made with the intent to deceive. Hopefully, the LIES presented in this paper will help cause these protectors of the public to do their job: seek and present truth.
A new documentary about the space shuttle Challenger accident airs tonight (Jan. 25), three days before the 30th anniversary of the tragic event.
On Jan. 28, 1986, Challenger exploded just 73 seconds after blasting off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, killing all seven astronauts aboard, including Christa McAuliffe, whom NASA had chosen to become America's first teacher in space.
The new documentary, called "Challenger Disaster: Lost Tapes," re-examines the disaster using contemporary audio recordings and rare video footage, including interviews with McAuliffe and clips of the New Hampshire social-studies teacher practicing some of the lessons she had planned to send down to kids on Earth from orbit. [Challenger Remembered: Photos from NASA's Tragic Shuttle Disaster]
"Christa was just a wonderful teacher, a wonderful human being and a wonderful representative of our profession," former NASA astronaut Barbara Morgan told Space.com. Morgan, an educator herself, served as McAuliffe's backup on the Challenger mission and eventually made it to space aboard the space shuttle Endeavour in 2007.
"Challenger Disaster: Lost Tapes" premieres tonight at 9 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CT on the National Geographic Channel. The film will also air on National Geographic Channels in 171 countries in 45 languages, and in Spanish on Nat Geo Mundo, network representatives said. You can watch a teaser trailer for the documentary here.
McAuliffe was a payload specialist on the doomed Challenger mission, which is known as STS-51-L. The other astronauts who lost their lives that day were mission commander Dick Scobee; pilot Mike Smith; mission specialists Judy Resnik, Ellison Onizuka and Ron McNair; and payload specialist Greg Jarvis.
Investigators later determined that a rubber seal called an O-ring in one of the shuttle's solid rocket boosters failed during launch, partly as a result of unusually cold weather (which caused the O-ring to harden).
This failure allowed hot, high-pressure gas to escape and damage Challenger's huge external fuel tank, as well as the equipment that attached the solid rocket booster to the tank.
The space shuttle fleet was grounded for 32 months in the wake of the Challenger disaster, finally taking to the skies again in September 1988 on Discovery's STS-26 mission. The program suffered another disaster on Feb. 1, 2003, when the shuttle Columbia broke apartupon re-entering Earth's atmosphere, killing all seven astronauts aboard.
The shuttles stopped flying for good in July 2011, and the surviving orbiters are now museum pieces. NASA currently relies on Russian Soyuz spacecraft to get its astronauts to and from orbit, though the space agency is encouraging privately developed American spaceships to perform this taxi service. Indeed, NASA awarded a total of $6.8 billion to Boeing and SpaceX in September 2014 to finish work on their crew capsules, which the agency hopes will be up and running by the end of next year.
"Challenger Disaster: Lost Tapes" airs tonight on the National Geographic Channel at 9 p.m. (check local listings).
Scientists Claim To Have Invented A ‘Magnetic Wormhole’
Scientists Claim To Have Invented A ‘Magnetic Wormhole’
Scientists in Spain have created a “magnetic wormhole” in the laboratory which is reportedly capable of transmitting magnetic fields invisibly through space.
While the manufactured wormhole does not connect two separate points in “spacetime” as does a genuine theoretical wormhole and cannot answer physic’s and cosmology’s fundamental questions, it can however connect two points in three dimensional space, albeit electromagnetically.
Researchers at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona have developed a spherical device capable of transferring a magnetic field from one point in space to another via a path that is magnetically undetectable. The results are published inNature.com.
The experiment involved designing a three-layer device which had two spheres connected by an interior spiral cylinder. It enabled the magnetic field to travel from one point to another on a hidden path. The inner layer was made of a ferromagnetic mu-metal, giving it a high level of magnetism, while the next two layers worked to conceal the travelling field.
One was a superconductor shell that bent the field as it travelled through the ferromagnetic material, the other was a different mu-metal, cut and formed so as to cancel out the bending. The entire device was placed in liquid nitrogen to aide the superconductors.
Normally, as a magnetic field travels its path can be detected, but the device enabled it to disappear while in transit so it appeared to arrive from out of nowhere at its destination, like a cloaking effect.
“This device can transmit the magnetic field from one point in space to another point, through a path that is magnetically invisible,” said Jordi Prat-Camps, a co-author of the study. “From a magnetic point of view, this device acts like a wormhole, as if the magnetic field was transferred through an extra special dimension.”
While what’s been created isn’t a space-time wormhole, or Einstein-Rosen bridge, like the sort seen inInterstellar and Thor (see below), it does hold real-world potential. For instance it could have applications for MRI scanners which use strong magnets and require people to sit inside a huge machine.
Using a more refined version of this technique means the magnet could still be effective placed further away, doing away with the confined space of an MRI.
Of course, these are all the positive applications that it could possibly used for, but just to keep you on your toes the sphere does have more than a passing resemblance to a certain film (below), Event Horizon, where things didn’t go quite as planned:
How Planet Nine may have been exiled to solar system’s edge
How Planet Nine may have been exiled to solar system’s edge
Both images: Caltech/R. Hurt (IPAC)
Our solar system might not be the weird kid on the block after all. Astronomers announced this week that they’ve seen strong evidence for a planet around 10 times Earth’s mass lurking unseen in the outer solar system. If it bears out, this world would fill a hole in our solar system’s family tree: a missing super-Earth.
Super-Earths, also known as mini-Neptunes since they may be gassy or rocky, are among the most common planets in the Milky Way. Hundreds have been spotted in other solar systems over the past two decades, but even so there appeared to be none back home.
“We didn’t want to invoke a distant giant planet to explain anything about the outer solar system,” says Batygin. “We tried every trick in the book, and some that aren’t in the book. Simply nothing else worked.”
“We usually talk about how the most common type of planet, two to three times the size of Earth, is not found in our solar system, yet now we might have one,” says Sara Seager at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology. “That’s cool.”
But even if there is a super-Earth out on the edges of our solar system, we’re still pretty weird. “Even with Planet Nine bringing us a bit closer to the galactic planetary catalogue, the solar system does still appear to be an overall outlier,” says Batygin, as super-Earths in other star systems are much closer to their stars.
Jupiter is the culprit
Simulations of the young solar system suggest that the early formation of Jupiter probably prevented this from happening here. But those simulations also suggest that a super-Earth couldn’t have formed as far away as Planet Nine would have to be, at least, not then – there simply wasn’t enough material out there to make a planet that big.
So how did Planet Nine, if it exists, get all the way out there?
The answer must lie in the very beginnings of the solar system, when our stellar neighbourhood was a very different – and much more dangerous – place. “We know the process of planet formation is not placid,” says Batygin. “There was a very chaotic sequence of events.” Planets were thrown around by their gravitational pulls on each other, occasionally colliding, as in the process that is thought to have formed Earth’s moon.
Planet Nine was the “core of a giant planet, which was forming with the other planets we know and love, that was thrown out of the solar system,” says Batygin.
Violent births
“We know that Uranus and Neptune probably had a very violent final phase of formation,” says Sean Raymond of Bordeaux Observatory in France – they essentially came together through a series of collisions. Last year he and colleagues simulated this process and found that planets around five times the mass of Earth were ejected from the solar system during the pileup.
At the time the team didn’t think too much about their eventual fate, but hints of Planet Nine suggest one could have settled down into a lengthy orbit. “This extra planet could be representative of the building blocks of the ice giants,” says Raymond.
That gives us a new mystery: what prevented the planet’s escape? Brown believes that gas and dust in the very early solar system may have slowed down the planet, but Batygin has his eye on a different culprit: the other stars nearby in the early days of our solar system. He thinks that gravitational tugs from those stars, are the best candidates for slowing down Planet Nine enough to keep it in a huge, elongated orbit around the sun.
Random pattern or real object?
But Planet Nine might not even be there. While Batygin and Brown have pointed out compelling evidence for the existence of Planet Nine by studying the unusual orbits of six distant rocks called Kuiper belt objects (KBOs), that is not the same as a discovery, says Brown. “People are good at seeing patterns in places, and maybe we have just seen a random pattern and convinced ourselves it’s statistically significant. That’s my biggest worry.”
Future discoveries of KBOs will provide the true test. “If you find more of these objects and they really are randomly distributed around the sky, then it’s time for us to hang our heads in shame and retreat from the national media,” says Brown. But if the anomalies in the outer Kuiper belt remain, then Planet Nine will remain a likely explanation for them.
“Further work is needed to explain the origin of Planet Nine,” says Lucie Jílková of Leiden Observatory in The Netherlands, who last year suggested the strange orbits of these KBOs could be explained if they were stolen from a passing star. “Observations of more outer solar system bodies will help to further constrain and distinguish the theories.”
Lightbulb on the moon
If Planet Nine really is out there, with any luck astronomers will be able to spot it soon, despite the scant light it reflects from the sun. “Finding this object is like finding a lightbulb on the moon,” says Batygin. “But our calculations have provided a roadmap for where to look for this very dim object in the sky. Hopefully, that will trigger a hunt.”
We might even send a probe there one day. “It’s not as crazy as it sounds,” says Brown. “The way you do it is head straight for the sun, and as you swing around the sun and you’re getting this gravitational slingshot, you fire a whole bank of rocket engines.” Depending on the distance to Planet Nine, this could take anywhere from a few years to 20 years.
Other schemes like this have been proposed in the past, some with nuclear-powered rockets, but they never got past the planning stages. But a target like Planet Nine could make all the difference. “The societal impact of having that destination would be very exciting,” says Greg Laughlin at the University of California, Santa Cruz. “The stars are just too far away, we’re not going there. But this is a place where we could get to.”
Galaxy-mapping Gaia space telescope gets an eye test from Pluto
Galaxy-mapping Gaia space telescope gets an eye test from Pluto
ESA
Gaia spies, with its gigapixel eye, something beginning with “P”. The European Space Agency launched its Gaia space telescope in December 2013 to map the locations of a billion stars in the Milky Way, but it can also spot objects a little closer to home. Between September 2014 and December 2015 it made nine observations of Pluto and its moon Charon, which have served as a kind of eye test for the probe.
When you take an eye examination, your optometrist asks you to distinguish between increasingly small letters on a chart. The test is designed to determine the resolution of your vision. Having 20/20 vision means you can distinguish two distant objects separated by one sixtieth of a degree, otherwise known as an arcminute. Any closer, and the objects blur together, appearing as one.
Gaia can do the same trick with Pluto and Charon, though it is a little more difficult because both bodies are moving with respect to each other and the spacecraft, slightly changing their angular separation. But Gaia has the advantage of being in orbit. Observations from Earth’s surface can be thrown off by the shimmer of the atmosphere, which can slightly bend light and make it harder to distinguish distant objects.
A good warm-up
In seven of the observations, Gaia was able to make out both the dwarf planet and its moon, but only saw a single point of light in the other two.
From these measurements, Gaia team member François Mignard of the Côte d’Azur Observatory in Nice, France, was able to calculate that Gaia’s resolving power is between 0.23 and 0.36 arcseconds – around 200 times better than 20/20 vision.
Mignard says this value should improve once the Gaia team starts detailed analysis of data from binary stars, which also orbit each other. But it’s a good warm-up challenge for this particular test.
“Pluto and Charon have a symbolic value of a source not easy to resolve from the Earth,” he says. “These observations with Gaia epitomise the gain in spatial resolution we get when go outside the atmosphere.”
Gaia will also help pinpoint the orbit of Pluto, eventually bringing down errors in its measurement from 2000 kilometres to around 50 kilometres. Improvements will partly come from tracking Pluto itself, but also from clearing up the positions of the stars behind it, which should benefit all astronomical measurements, says Mignard. “This will be a lasting legacy of Gaia.”
New rumours that gravitational waves have finally been detected
New rumours that gravitational waves have finally been detected
A rumour that the world’s largest gravitational-wave observatory has caught the first whiff of its quarry is heating up.
Gravitational waves are ripples in space-time produced by massive bodies accelerating through space, such as pairs of neutron stars orbiting each other or the merging of two black holes.
They were predicted as part of Einstein’s general relativity a century ago, but have yet to be seen directly. Finding them would confirm the final piece of his theory, and also give us a new way to view the universe, allowing us to probe distant objects that might otherwise be dark or obscured by interstellar dust.
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) searched for such signals from 2002 to 2010 with no luck. Its more sensitive successor, Advanced LIGO or aLIGO, started collecting data on 18 September.
Fresh sighting
Barely a week later, cosmologist Lawrence Krauss at Arizona State University tweeted a rumour that the detector had already picked up a signal.
“Stay tuned!” he tweeted. “Gravitational waves may have been discovered!! Exciting.”
Off Twitter, however, Krauss was more cautious. The signal could have been a false one deliberately injected into the data to test the detection team. “I’m told this isn’t that,” Krauss told New Scientist. His source says that the LIGO collaboration is writing up a paper on the possible find. “That suggests it’s not a false signal – but who knows for sure?”
The official word from the LIGO team is tha
t they are still analysing the data from the first run, which should finish on 12 January. “It takes time to analyse, interpret and review results,” says spokesperson Gabriela González at Louisiana State University. “We expect to have news on the run results in the next few months.”
“We’ll use something other than the rumour mill when we have a contribution to the discussion!” adds David Shoemaker at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
SECRET UNDERGROUND BASE BENEATH DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT NOW REVEALED
By John Ale (Reporter)
FOR THE FIRST TIME, A WHISTLE-BLOWER FROM WITHIN THE DIA COMPLEX CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF A MASSIVE DEEP UNDERGROUND MILITARY FACILITY LOCATED BENEATH THE AIRPORT.
The Denver International Airport (DIA) is nestled on a vast 53 square mile complex and is owned and operated by the City of Denver. In fact, it’s the largest airport in the United States, in terms of land mass garnered, and the second largest airport in the world to Saudi Arabia’s King Fahd International Airport as I pointed out in my appearance on the Travel Channel series America Declassified.
The airport serves over 50 million passengers a year and is now incorporating a massive new project called “Airport City” an aerotropolis which has been presented publicly by the Mayor of Denver, Michael Hancock, who respectively declined an interview with Intellihub News. However, interestingly, the new aerotropolis will incorporate an expansive business district with new lodging as well as an agricultural and technical district within the confines of the airport property to attract more revenue to Denver’s growing economy. In fact, between the planed aerotropolis and Colorado’s booming marijuana industry, DIA just might be the next biggest thing since sliced bread.
The concept is innovative, a first for an airport in America, and is likely to become the envy of other airports around the world. In fact, according to Airport City Denver’s official website:
In 2010, DIA and the City and County of Denver took a major step in DIA’s evolution to fulfill its gateway role by inviting firms from around the world to submit proposals to assist DIA in planning, assessing and creating an Airport City at DIA as the core of and competitive accelerator for the emerging Denver aerotropolis. Later that year, DIA selected MXD Development Strategists (MXD) and its collaborative team including Design Workshop, CH2M Hill, Dr. John Kasarda, Integrity Parking, Transcore and Ambient Energy to prepare the Denver International Airport City Development Strategy.
However, local residents and others have been questioning the new construction in and around the airport property as several red flags have been raised. In fact, since the first construction phases of the airport started in the early 1990′s, there have been several indicators that something else may be taking place on or under the grounds of the 53 square mile complex.
THE FACILITY
Some speculate that a deep underground military facility, part of the Continuity of Government (COG) program exists on the site. A massive underground city to be used by our government in the event that Washington or our central governments command hub is compromised. According to some investigative reports, including one headed up by the former Governor of Minnesota, Jesse Ventura, the underground city that lies beneath the airport quite possibly connects to other deep underground military installations throughout the country.
Now, a source of mine within the airport confirmed for the first time astonishing information regarding the underground facility, providing details unknown to airport staff and the general public until now.
The following are details regarding a deep underground military installation located on the grounds of the DIA as provided by my source:
Level 1 of the airport is inset into the ground to protect from vibrations coming from underneath. The base board characteristics lead on to this technical design. The employees have been told the reason for this is to protect from vibrations from the public train that leads back and forth to all concourses, A, B, and C. The airport’s gate and door numbers correspond to emergency action and response plans that indicate specific details to people “in the know”. The design of the airport is built to throw people off as levels are labeled differently on each in some cases and grading changes make it difficult to pinpoint your actual elevation. This was a security feature added by the designers. Due to lawsuits (or potential staged events) in the “United Airlines, Inc.” section of one of the basement levels at DIA, an infectious bio-hazard or fungal outbreak has instigated quarantined off areas of the underground, as they are now inaccessible to the airport staff and personnel. The quarantined section of the underground was confirmed by the source to be located in Concourse B’s East side lower levels. The landfill located off of Tower Rd. two miles west of the Jeppesen Terminal was added onto in the early 2000′s despite the Airports Appeal To The District Court Against The Landfill in 2002, claiming it was a FAA safety hazard. The landfill has a functioning element to it but is “mocked-up” to look like a landfill hidden in plain sight. There is a militarized intermediary entrance located in the “United Airlines” section of the underground. The actual door number was reveled by my source with great hesitation. The actual door code is “BE64B” unknown until now to the general public. A swift door will also allow access to the intermediary entrance of the facility if you have the proper “speed-pass” clearance on a Department of Defense (DOD) level. This door was also a secret to the general public until now. The actual door number is “T-47 M” located on the level 4 exterior. Update: Airport Staff, “I just went in to T47-M… nothing goes down, no steps, no elevator”. The dirt in parts of the train tunnels looks unnatural, and “if anyone steps on it they know”, said my source. Gates can “lock-down” certain sections of the airport in the event of an emergency. A nearly 3 mile long tunnel heads out from the intermediary entrance “BE64B“, to a full-blown Department of Defense (DOD) sanctioned militarized entrance nestled in a set of 5 buildings 120′ beneath the surface located Northeast of theJeppesen Terminal. All VIP activity typically originates under the Northwest section of “Concourse C” The information provided by the whistleblower does indeed beg the following question. Does the DOD have any ties to areas of the airport owned and (or) operated by domestics airline carriers?
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE TIES TO DOMESTIC AIRLINE CARRIERS
New information uncovered by Intellihub News investigators concludes that, yes indeed the DOD has ties to a commercial airline carrier that operates out of the Denver International Airport.
Documents requested by a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by the Investigative Report Workshop in 2004 reveal that, “United Airlines, Inc” is involved in a DOD “Air Transportation Program” likely connected to COG. This contract would allow United Airlines to fly VIP’s, sitting Senators, Congressmen, and top elected officials including Head’s of State to-and-fro the main COG hub located on DIA grounds.
According to the Investigative Report Workshop, “The Department of Defense audits commercial air carriers it contracts with to fly DOD employees. The Workshop and PBS FRONTLINE sent a FOIA request to learn about United Airline’s maintenance procedures. Last year, we had sent the same request for another company and the audits proved to be very informative. This time, however, we received about 94 mostly blank pages.”
THE DIRT CAME FROM SOMEWHERE According to my source from inside, a massive pile of dirt was added to an existing landfill in the area despite the FAA’s request that it was dangerous to travelers and could pose a radar issue causing a potential disaster. This addition to that landfill was pressed hard and was supposed to take place over a 40-60 year period, but instead took place over the course of about 4 years. The pile of dirt, which is masked as a landfill in-plain-sight, now exceeds 300′ in altitude.
An excerpt from the FAA appeal reads, “In the Hazard Determination and Affirmation, the FAA found that the Tower Road landfill at its proposed height “would be in the radar line of sight and vehicles [i.e., dump trucks and graders] operating at the landfill may cause radar reflection and consequently create false targets.” JA 7.
The Determination and Affirmation themselves provide no evidentiary basis for the “false target” finding. Indeed, we can find at most only two pages in a 462-page record to support it. The FAA’s aeronautical study reports that Airways Facility radar technicians have “identified the potential for false targets. At the current elevation of 5,423′ AMSL[above mean sea level], the landfill is below the radar line-of-sight. At the new height of 5,542′ AMSL, the large dump trucks, graders, and other heavy equipment create the potential for reflecting the radar and causing false targets…. The impact in this circumstance would be an erroneous position indication for the aircraft.”
CONCLUSION The Denver Airport (Location) is part of a Continuity of Government Program and does indeed house an underground facility.

New X-files Series to Reveal: 9/11 Conspiracy, Global Warming, NSA Spying, Chem-trails, Police Militarization, FEMA Camps, and a “takeover of America” by a UN-like group of “multinational elites.”
New X-files Series to Reveal: 9/11 Conspiracy, Global Warming, NSA Spying, Chem-trails, Police Militarization, FEMA Camps, and a “takeover of America” by a UN-like group of “multinational elites.”
The cult classic TV series X-files is coming back on the air after nearly a 14 years hiatus. On January 24th, 2016 a six-episode miniseries will air on Fox to the excitement of fans everywhere. To many interested in secret Earth governments, UFOs, extraterrestrials and the military industrial complex, the series is a tantalizing display of purely fictional musings with no real basis in reality, or is it? Since the show's final episode aired in 2002, a slow and steady release of information related to the aforementioned topics has given many Sci-fi fans something to think about. Perhaps what is revealed in movies, TV shows, and comic books has more truth to it than meets the eye. And perhaps all of these works are secretly an effort to hide the truth in plain site. RelatedDecoding Movies (Maxims and Aphorisms): 7 Lessons J.K.Rowling taught us about life As the X-files introduction says, "the truth is out there," but if we label it as fiction without any investigation, this bias will literally blind us to any truthful elements contained within a working. I contend this is one of the reasons science fiction has so much soft disclosure embedded in it, chiefly for the purpose of normalizing the data within the viewers mind.
RelatedAwakening Your Force | Science Fiction and Psychology - Star Wars, Ancient Tibet, and Jedi Training The following is an article by Kauilapele regarding this newly rehashed X-files series set to debut this Sunday. With the items he highlighted, along with a fair understanding ufology, secret space program disclosures and the truth movement in general, it is easy to see how this show is hiding information in plain site. This section of an article he cites is particularly revealing:
“In the first return episode screened for reporters (trailer below), paranormal investigators Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) team up with a charming web-series host named Tad O’Malley… O’Malley eventually sways Mulder and Scully to adopt a new conspiracy that lays a framework for the six-episode revival. The theory involves global warming, war in the Middle East, NSA spying, chem-trails (here called “aerial contaminants”), police militarization, supposed FEMA prison camps, and the eventual military “takeover of America” by a UN-like group of “multinational elites.” [Sound familiar?]
“The most eyebrow-raising moment in the premiere is when O’Malley brings the 9/11 terrorist attacks into his conspiracy framework. “9/11 was a false flag operation,” O’Malley declares on his Truth Squad with Tad O’Malley show, echoing on Infowars theory. “It’s all part of a conspiracy dating back to the UFO crash at Roswell.” The clip is presented early in the episode. Later, Mulder and Scully embrace O’Malley’s overall position, though the 9/11 element isn’t referenced." (Emphasis added)
I think even the most close-minded person can see the writing on the wall. Clearly this show is an effort to label all these concepts and more as fictional, to be dismissed, ridiculed and scoffed at. But as a wise man once said:
“There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.”
Here is the Entertainment Weekly article about the new X-Files that was mentioned in the Kevin Barrett post, and the video. As I see it (and I’ve checked with our local listings over here), this is airing, on Fox, on 1-24-16 (Sunday). Locally, I see it begins at 6:30 (30 minute intro), then at 7 PM (one -hour episode).
There is a 21-minute preview video at this article.
“In the first return episode screened for reporters (trailer below), paranormal investigators Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) team up with a charming web-series host named Tad O’Malley… O’Malley eventually sways Mulder and Scully to adopt a new conspiracy that lays a framework for the six-episode revival.

“I don’t think Mulder and Scully adopt any political position so much as a new approach in their search for the truth. While I think their politics are balanced, I think the turn they take is toward a more heretical political position… it will be interesting to see how fans respond to their heroes exploring a conspiracy framework that touches on issues more sensitive than the ones when the show first aired.”
Fox’s upcoming and eagerly awaited revival of The X-Files is updating its conspiracy theories — only this time, the sci-fi series might cause more controversy than when the show told tales of government-aided UFO cover-ups during its initial 1990s run.
In the first return episode screened for reporters (trailer below), paranormal investigators Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) team up with a charming web-series host named Tad O’Malley (played by the usually comedic Joel McHale, here in a dramatic role). The character, loosely based on conservative online personalities Alex Jones and Glenn Beck, bashes the “liberal media” in the episode; at one point, Mulder compares O’Malley to Fox News host Bill O’Reilly (“What Bill O’Reilly knows about the truth can fill an eyedropper,” O’Malley retorts).
Now we don’t want to reveal too much about the episode, or how the conspiracy relates to the show’s existing labyrinthine mythology. What we will report – and stop reading if you don’t want to know anything about the first hour – is that O’Malley eventually sways Mulder and Scully to adopt a new conspiracy that lays a framework for the six-episode revival. The theory involves global warming, war in the Middle East, NSA spying, chem-trails (here called “aerial contaminants”), police militarization, supposed FEMA prison camps, and the eventual military “takeover of America” by a UN-like group of “multinational elites.” The conspiracy theory plays a bit like Oliver Stone during his JFKfever pitch — only if his source material was Infowars instead of UFO lore.
“We live in a CitizenFour world now,” says creator Chris Carter, referring to the documentary on NSA leaker Edward Snowden. “We’ve given up certain rights and freedoms because we want the government to protect us after 9/11. We see the admitted spying by the government. These are not things we’re making up and it informs everything Mulder and Scully and doing are doing.”
Carter describes himself as a “mostly interested observer” in the conspiracy world, and notes he researched the new show by combing through conspiracy websites and attending a conspiracy convention.
“I’ve kept my finger to the wind and trying to figure out what’s relevant and possible credible,” Carter says. “People know the show deals with science and fact and also deals with far-flung theories about not only the supernatural but government conspiracies. It throws out as many questions as it does answers. And I have to say what it’s done for me and the writers it has given us a whole new open field which to run. It’s given the show an interesting new life and context that it might not have had in 2002.”
The U.N. takeover threat, however, is something Carter suggests is credible. “The idea of a New World Order is relevant,” Carter says. When we suggest the show is embracing “right-wing” theories, Carter counters, “It’s not necessarily. I don’t see Alex Jones as right-wing, I see him as libertarian … [and O’Malley is] a character who casts everything in doubt.”
The most eyebrow-raising moment in the premiere is when O’Malley brings the 9/11 terrorist attacks into his conspiracy framework. “9/11 was a false flag operation,” O’Malley declares on his Truth Squad with Tad O’Malley show, echoing on Infowars theory. “It’s all part of a conspiracy dating back to the UFO crash at Roswell.” The clip is presented early in the episode. Later, Mulder and Scully embrace O’Malley’s overall position, though the 9/11 element isn’t referenced.
“So here’s the thing,” Carter says when we asked about the “false flag” line. “Chris Carter doesn’t believe that. Chris Carter is very open minded about these things. But the character O’Malley believes it. And he convinces Mulder to – not necessarily believe that – but to believe many other things he’s exposing. I don’t think Mulder and Scully adopt any political position so much as a new approach in their search for the truth. While I think their politics are balanced, I think the turn they take is toward a more heretical political position.”
X-Files is obviously as fictional of a series as they come, but it will be interesting to see how fans respond to their heroes exploring a conspiracy framework that touches on issues more sensitive than the ones when the show first aired.

Le phénomène étrange dans le ciel Perrigny-sur-l'Ognon immortalisé
Voici un mystère qui ravira les amateurs d'Ovni et de Fox Mulder et Dana Scully en ce jour de retour sur les écrans (américains) de la célèbre série X-Files. Plusieurs témoins racontent en tout cas avoir vu la même chose en divers points de la Côte-d'Or samedi.

Que s'est-il passé samedi soir, vers 18h30, dans le ciel de Perrigny-sur-l'Ognon ? Mystère. Mais Guy et Eliane Rondot sont encore très marqués, ce dimanche matin, par ce qu'ils ont vu hier.
A 18h30 donc, Guy se trouvait dans sa cour lorsqu'il a aperçu "une grosse boule orange scintillante, trois fois plus grosse qu'un avion". Une différence de taille que l'homme peut assurer puisqu'il certifie qu'un avion est passé dans le ciel juste après la première boule.
Le phénomène se répète quelques minutes plus tard
C'est à ce moment-là qu'Eliane découvre elle aussi ce qui traverse le ciel de la commune. "J'étais en train de fermer les volets quand j'ai entendu mon mari crier. Il me disait de regarder le ciel et c'est alors que j'ai vu ce cylindre orange qui brillait. Je suis partie couper le son de la TV, il n'y avait plus aucun bruit. Cette chose superbe donnait l'impression de glisser dans le ciel et ne laissait aucune trace derrière elle."
Et le couple n'est pas au bout de ses surprises. Car, selon leurs dires, trois autres "boules ou sphères" sont apparues une à deux minutes plus tard. Toujours avec le même silence et la même forme. Avant de disparaître à l'horizon vers le sud.
Deux autres témoins... à Seurre
Ce dimanche, le couple se demande toujours de quoi il peut s'agir. Et regrette de n'avoir pas eu le réflexe de prendre en photo ce qu'ils ont vu. D'autant plus que ni la gendarmerie ni la société d'astronomie de Bourgogne n'ont eu de signalement de la sorte pour le moment. Ce qui n'empêche pas Guy et Eliane d'être confiants : "C'était tellement impressionnant, on ne pouvait pas le rater. D'autres gens ont forcément vu la même chose..."
Et justement, à peine notre article était-il publié que Sophie Petitjean, une internaute, nous contactait. "Mon copain et moi-même avons vu la même chose mais dans le ciel de Seurre en regardant dans la direction de Chamblanc. Nous n'avons pas de photos, je conduisais et le phénomène a rapidement disparu", explique-t-elle.
Et si c'était la lune ?
D'autres internautes sont, en revanche, plus sceptiques et avancent une hypothèse : la lune. En effet, celle-ci était pleine samedi soir et avait une apparence un peu différente de d'habitude. Parmi eux, Lionel raconte : "Nous étions sur l'autoroute A38 avec ma famille. Je me rappelle avoir dit aux enfants "Regardez, c'est la pleine lune, elle est 10 fois plus grande que d'habitude". Elle était orange et brillait à l'entrée de Dijon."
Une théorie que rejette vigoureusement Sophie : "Cette chose avançait doucement et je peux certifier qu'il ne s'agissait pas de la lune qui se trouvait à ce moment là plus à l'ouest de la position de ce phénomène. J'ai aussi lu sur Facebook que des gens songeait à des lanternes thaïlandaises. Pour en avoir déjà vu, je peux certifier que cette chose brillait bien plus qu'une lanterne."
Si vous avez été témoin du même phénomène samedi soir, n'hésitez pas à nous raconter cela à l'adresse lbpredacweb@lebienpublic.fr. Et si vous avez pris une ou plusieurs photos n'hésitez pas à nous les transmettre.
Alien Life on Ceres: New evidence points towards intelligent life on the dwarf planet
Alien Life on Ceres: New evidence points towards intelligent life on the dwarf planet
NASA has tried really hard to understand all the enigmas surrounding the dwarf planet Ceres. Ever since the first image was beamed back by NASA’s Dawn Spacecraft scientists around the world have tried to explain all the mysteries about one of the most interesting dwarf planets in the solar system. But what makes Ceres so unique?
Well we could say that the mysterious bright lights that were spotted on the surface of Ceres are the most talked about mystery surrounding Ceres. The truth is that no one has been able to accurately explain what the mysterious lights are, what causes them, and why they are not present anywhere else. The first high-resolution images of the surface of the dwarf planet arrived to Earth in January 19, 2015 and since then everyone started talking about the unique and mysterious features of Ceres.
Ok so, what do the lights look like? Well, to be honest if you compare the image of the bright lights on Ceres to an image of a city on Earth, taken from Space, I’d say that the two look very much alike… It’s as if we are looking at an Alien city on Ceres… But optical illusion can play around with your mind. While no one can rule out at this point an alien city on Ceres, no one can rule out Pareidolia either.
Let’s compare the bright spots on Ceres with an image of a city on Earth as seen from space:
Ummm… Is that an Alien city on Ceres?
As if the mysterious bright lights of Ceres weren’t enough, there is more about Ceres that could creep you out. New images of the dwarf planet show what appears to be a pyramid-shaped structure located on a flat landscape. According to scientists, that mysterious pyramid should be there geologically speaking. The ‘Ceres pyramid’ measures around 3 miles in height, but the size of the ‘pyramid’ isn’t the most mysterious part of the story. What has caused even greater confusion is the fact that one side of the oddly shaped mountain is nearly completely dark on one side while the other side glows just like the bright spots on the dwarf planet.
So what is causing the bright spots to shine like that? And why is there a pyramid in the middle of nowhere?
Bright lights that cannot be explained… a huge pyramid sticking out of nowhere… Ceres is as mysterious as it gets.
According to Carol Raymond, deputy principal investigator of the Dawn Mission declared: The surface of Ceres has revealed many interesting and unique features. For example, icy moons in the outer solar system have craters with central pits, but on Ceres central pits in large craters are much more common. These and other features will allow us to understand the inner structure of Ceres that we cannot sense directly.”
What does this mean? Well it means that Ceres is as mysterious as it can get with distinct features that make it extremely rare and unique when compared to other celestial bodies in our solar system. There are many things on Ceres that simply put, should not be there.
But if the pyramid-shaped structures and huge bright lights that resemble a city aren’t enough, Ceres has more to offer. According to scientists, the dwarf planet is split into a rocky core and an icy mantle and is believed to have an internal ocean of LIQUID WATER under its thick coating of ice. Scientists picked up ‘traces of water’ back in 2014 when they spotted emissions of water vapor from different regions on Ceres something that caused great confusion among experts since massive bodies located in the asteroid belt DO NOT emit vapors.
All of the above means that Ceres is one of its kind. No other planet- dwarf planet is as mysterious as this one. Its incredible features have given us a lot to talk about and its mysterious geology still continues to amaze anyone who looks at it. The only thing left to do is continue following the Dawn spacecraft mission as it explores one of the most mysterious objects in our solar system, an object that could have an Alien connection according to UFO hunters.

Glowing Orb Over Netherlands Changes Speed And Direction, Jan 2016, UFO Sighting News.
Glowing Orb Over Netherlands Changes Speed And Direction, Jan 2016, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: January 12, 2016 Location of sighting: Groningen, Netherlands Source: MUFON #73825 This glowing orb was seen this week over the Netherlands and for it to change speed helps us to rule out Chinese lantern. These glowing orbs have been seen all around the world this year and seem to be scanning the communities, recording everything. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com Eyewitness states: I was on my way to the car with my girlfriend, when we suddenly saw a bright moving light up in the sky. It wasn't an airplane and it sure wasn't a satelite. This object was changing speed constantly (from fast to slow to fast, etc.) and wasn't moving in a straight line. Luckily we caught it on camera!
AT LEAST 4 KNOWN ALIEN SPECIES HAVE BEEN VISITING EARTH FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
AT LEAST 4 KNOWN ALIEN SPECIES HAVE BEEN VISITING EARTH FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
Arjun Walia
I am well aware that just because somebody (no matter what their ‘position’) says something to be true, does not mean it’s true. Exceptions, however can be made if there is evidence that goes beyond their words and correlates with what they say. At the end of the day, you have to listen to what your heart tells you.
Paul Hellyer was the Canadian Minister of National Defense in the 1960’s during the cold war. He was responsible for combining the Canadian Air Force, Navy and Army into what is known today as the Canadian Forces. He was the highest ranking person (on paper) inside of the Department of Defence for Canada. The Honorable Paul Hellyer is the highest ranking person among all g8 countries to openly speak about UFOs and extraterrestrials.
He has been speaking about UFOs and extraterrestrials for quite some time now, and he recently made an appearance on RT news stating that there are at least 4 known alien species that have been visiting Earth for thousands of years.
Upon retirement, Hellyer began to blow the whistle on UFOs and extraterrestrials. His testimony is backed up by hundreds of other high ranking military and political personnel all over the world, including official documents released by dozens of governments worldwide that have officially acknowledged the presence of UFOs.
I think it’s also important to point out that the Canadian government recently acknowledged the fact that various federal agencies, including Transport Canada, the RCMP and the Department of National Defence used to track and investigate UFO sightings. (1) They claim to have stopped those programs, but that contradicts the defence minister’s (Hellyer) claims. There is good reason to believe, and a lot of evidence to suggest that some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial space craft (not all military), and the activities of the agencies responsible for these programs goes far beyond just tracking of UFOs, but into contact with various extraterrestrial races, other classified technological developments and more.
Here is some of what Paul Hellyer has to say, for more you can watch the video clip below:
“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. They are very concerned about that and if we will use it again, because the whole cosmos is a unity and it affects not just us but other people in the cosmos. They’re very much afraid that we might start using atomic weapons again and this would be very bad for us, and them also.”
– Paul Hellyer
“Many are benign and benevolent, and a few are not. They come from various places, for a long while I only knew about ones that came from different star systems, the Pleiades. There are extraterrestrials that come from Andromeda, and ones that live on one of Saturn’s moon’s. There is a federation of these people, and they have rules, one of them is that they don’t interfere with our affairs unless they are invited. They have accepted the fact that this is our planet, and we have the right to run it but they are very concerned, they don’t think that we are good stewards of our planet. We are ruining our planet, we’re doing all sorts of things that we shouldn’t be doing, and they don’t like that. They’ve made it clear, and they have given us a warning.”
– Paul Hellyer
“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. It is ironic that the US should be fighting monstrously expensive wars, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy when trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.”

Scientists Say There’s Evidence That Aliens Might Be In Our Galaxy
Scientists Say There’s Evidence That Aliens Might Be In Our Galaxy
According to a new study published this week by astronomers, the naturalistic properties behind the mysterious Star KIC and its variations in brightness has led numerous scientists to suspect that the reality behind the anomalies of KIC is evidence of intelligent Alien life in our galaxy.
According to scientists, their best shot at explaining the mystery behind KIC and its fluctuations in brightness were a huge mass of comets which was erratically orbiting the star, and creating enough dust to dim the light coming from the star. However, a look inside the Star’s history has completely rendered that hypothesis implausible since, according to astronomers, the unprecedented dimming coming from the star has continued for over a century.
What does this mean? Well, it means that in order to dim for such a prolonged period of time, the star (KIC 8462852) would basically need to have MILLIONS of times more dust and comets orbiting it than expected.
According to astronomers, they estimate that in order for the dimming to be caused by comets, it would roughly require around 648,000 of giant comets with a diameter of 200 kilometers, all aligned to pass in front of the star, for the dimming to be explained by this –now debunked—theory.
“Either one of our refutations has some hidden loophole, or some theorist needs to come up with some other proposal,” Bradley Schaefer, an astronomer at Louisiana State University, told the New Scientist. “The comet-family idea was reasonably put forth as the best of the proposals, even while acknowledging that they all were a poor lot. But now we have a refutation of the idea, and indeed, of all published ideas.”
Last year in October, astronomers with Yale University and other educational facilities published a study using NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope to examine the star KIC 8462852. What they found when they peaked at KIC 8462852 was both exciting and scary as they noticed light patterns consistent with large orbiting masses which blocked out a large portion of the star’s light.
Alien Dyson Spheres
Now that we know that comets aren’t causing the mysterious dimming in the star’s light… then what is? Is it possible that an advanced alien civilization is actually out there, and we are looking at the ‘remains’ of their technology today?
According to tom some researchers, the structures located near KIC 8462852 are eerily similar to what “Dyson spheres,” — hypothetical, energy-harvesting “megastructures” – would look like. Scientists have theorized about ‘Dyson Spheres’ since the 1960’s, where they propose that an advanced – extremely ancient— alien civilization could have advanced to such a stage in their life cycle, that they had the ability to harvest energy from their star through mega structures or Dyson spheres. Astronomers from SETI have long argues that we could see, or better said identify, giant alien megastructures from Earth by searching for technological artifacts orbiting other stars.
However, according to research, the ‘mega structures’ located around KIC 8462852 aren’t consistent with its age, which has led scientists to believe that these structures must have appeared fairly recently around the star. Even though KIC 8462852 is only 1481 light years, it cannot be seen without telescopes.
Curiosity has found fossilized traces of life on Mars according to geobiologist
Curiosity has found fossilized traces of life on Mars according to geobiologist
As we meticulously scrutinize high-resolution images that are sent to Earth by NASA’s Curiosity rover on Mars, we see strange formations, configurations that seem artificial, and rocks of all kinds that have caused people from all around the world to believe intelligent beings (or, at least, some sort of life form) inhabited the red planet in the distant past.
Sometimes the Martian landscape plays tricks with our imagination, and sometimes suspiciously observed characteristics match natural processes that we have seen on our own planet. But now, in an article published in the journal Astrobiology, one geobiologist found in images of sedimentary rock from Mars, proof of structures created by microbial life on the red planet.
The discovery was made by Nora Noffke, a geobiologist at Old Dominion University in Virginia. She has spent the past 20 years studying these microbial structures. In 2014, she reported the discovery of MISS that are 3.48 billion years old in the Western Australia’s Dresser Formation, making them potentially the oldest signs of life on Earth, a discovery of huge importance if we are to understand how life evolved on Earth.
Now, Noffke details striking morphological similarities between Martian sedimentary structures in the Gillespie Lake outcrop (believed to be at most 3.7 billion years old) and microbial structures on Earth.
The image in question was taken by the Curiosity rover on Lake Gillespie, an area located in the Bay of Yellowknife, Gale Crater where the rover arrived in December 2012. The sedimentary rock photographed by Curiosity is sandstone, which formed when Mars had water on its surface. The layers of sedimentary rock and conglomerations that exist in them led scientists to conclude that Curiosity was exploring an ancient lakebed.

The Martian Lake Gillespie, which has been dated to around 3,700 million years, seems to have its very own structures which can be attributed to ancient Martian microbes. In her study, Noffke emphasizes that his is only a hypothesis and should be taken as such while she is certain that this meets the necessary goal of explaining the process of formation responsible for the visible structures on the surface of sedimentary rocks on Mars.
“All I can say is, here’s my hypothesis and here’s all the evidence that I have,” Noffke says, “although I do think that this evidence is a lot.”
“The fact that she pointed out these structures is a great contribution to the field,” says Penelope Boston, a geomicrobiologist at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology. “Along with the recent reports of methane and organics on Mars, her findings add an intriguing piece to the puzzle of a possible history for life on our neighboring planet.”

So… traces of life on Mars?
Mars is just incredibly interesting since it is so different yet so similar to Earth and in the views of many people around the globe if there was life anywhere else in the solar system than that place is surely Mars.
“I’ve seen many papers that say ‘Look, here’s a pile of dirt on Mars, and here’s a pile of dirt on Earth,” says Chris McKay, a planetary scientist at NASA’s Ames Research Center and an associate editor of the journal Astrobiology. “And because they look the same, the same mechanism must have made each pile on the two planets.’”
McKay adds: “That’s an easy argument to make, and it’s typically not very convincing. However, Noffke’s paper is the most carefully done analysis of the sort that I’ve seen, which is why it’s the first of its kind published in Astrobiology.”
Mars has proven to be far more similar to Earth in many ways than what scientist have been willing to accept. After over 3 years of collecting data, images and readings from Mars, researchers are finally accepting the idea that Mars could have been inhabited by life forms in the distant past when the red planet had an atmosphere similar to that of Earth, rivers, lakes and oceans.
“In one image, I saw something that looked very familiar,” Noffke recalls. “So I took a closer look, meaning I spent several weeks investigating certain images centimeter by centimeter, drawing sketches, and comparing them to data from terrestrial structures. And I’ve worked on these for 20 years, so I knew what to look for.”

Noffke meticulously compared several images taken on Mars by NASA’s rovers to several sites photographed on Earth including modern sediment surfaces in Mellum Island, Germany; Portsmouth Island, USA; and Carbla Point, Western Australia; as well as older fossils of microbial mats in Bahar Alouane, Tunisia; the Pongola Supergroup in Africa; and the Dresser Formation in Western Australia. Interestingly, the images showed incredible morphological similarities between the terrestrial and Martian sedimentary structures.
Researchers note that distribution patterns of microbial structures on our planet usually vary depending on where they are found. This is why different types of structures are located together in different environments. As noted by astrobio.net, microbial mats that grow in rivers will create a different set of associations than those that grow in seasonally flooded environments.
Interestingly, the patterns which Noffke found in the Gillespie Lake outcrop are consistent with the microbial structures found in similar environments on Earth.
But the similarities found by Noffke are quite a few. According to the geobiologist, terrestrial structures change in a certain way over time, and this is something Noffke found on Mars since the distribution pattern in Martian rocks eerily resembles microbial structures on Earth which have changed over time. This is why Noffke has been able to make strong arguments with respected data even though she has also taken the time to describe other processes that could have created similar patterns. In her study Noffke noted that the chips, pits, and cracks could be the product of erosion by salt, water, or the wind.

“But if the Martian structures aren’t of biological origin,” Noffke says, “then the similarities in morphology, but also in distribution patterns with regards to MISS on Earth would be an extraordinary coincidence.”
“At this point, all I’d like to do is point out these similarities,” she adds. “Further evidence must be provided to verify this hypothesis.”
Even though confirmation of the discovery made by Noffke is still pending, the geobiologist has outlined a strategy to confirm the potential biological nature of the Martian structures, the only issue is… returning a sample to Earth in order to properly test it. Since this is not an option at the moment, Noffke has listed a series of measurements NASA’s curiosity rover could perform if it came across similar structures again, one of them is looking for organic chemical signatures using the SAM (Sample Analysis at Mars) instrument, something that according to McKay wouldn’t work: “In principle, that instrument could tell us something about the nature of these materials biologically, if there were still large amounts of biological organics in the samples,” he explains. “But these are just ancient sedimentary structures, and biology has long since left.”
“What’s more, in practice this instrument is restricted,” he adds. “There was a contamination spill in the instrument presumably during landing. So it has a very high background contamination level.”
So, as you can see we could be onto a groundbreaking discovery, one which we cannot confirm at the moment. However, the study itself is more than incredible and proves that Mars is a planet full of surprises.
PROJECT LUCIFER, THE STRANGEST CONSPIRACY INVOLVING NASA
PROJECT LUCIFER, THE STRANGEST CONSPIRACY INVOLVING NASA
July 10, 2015 - Saddle up, it’s time for an awesome conspiracy theory. If you’re a fan of science fiction, you know about Arthur C. Clarke’s (and Stanley Kubrick’s) seminal novel series 2001: A Space Odyssey. In the second installment, 2010: Odyssey Two, the alien monolith that was orbiting Jupiter replicates itself and begins condensing the gas giant, eventually transforming it into a smaller sun. This process turns the former planet’s moons into habitable worlds suitable for life. The people of Earth consequently name the second sun in the sky Lucifer. Without getting too ecclesiastic, the term Lucifer comes from Latin and literally means ‘light-bringing.’ Fitting name for the solar system’s new star. Most of us regard this concept as nothing more than science fiction and nigh impossible to achieve with our current level of technology. But a number of conspiracy theorists not only believe it possible, they actually claim this is one of NASA’s ongoing projects. Here’s why.
Jupiter has been called a failed star, in the sense that if it had more mass, it could have started nuclear fusion and effectively become a star. Unfortunately (fortunately?), astrophysicists calculated it would have needed to be 75 times more massive in order to do so. Conspiracy theorists believe this mass deficit could be corrected with the addition of nuclear fuel that could jump-start the process of nuclear fusion. Enter NASA’s space probes Galileo, Cassini, Voyager and the rest.
In order for these space probes to work, they need a reliable fuel source as solar energy becomes difficult to catch once you get past the orbit of Mars. Therefore, NASA equipped its probes with an energy source called an RTG, short for radioisotope thermoelectric generator. The radioactive decay of the Plutonium-238 pellets contained in an RTG steadily produces electricity that powers the probe. For example, the Galileo space probe contained 2 RTGs, each carrying 17 pounds of Plutonium-238. What would happen if this payload were detonated inside Jupiter?
Well, nothing, or at least, nothing observable. In 2003, Galileo was deliberately crashed into Jupiter’s atmosphere. NASA followed this approach because they feared crashing it into one of Jupiter’s solid moons carried the risk of contamination with terrestrial bacteria.
Conspiracy theorists saw this venture as an expression of Project Lucifer. They feared that, as Galileo fell through Jupiter’s dense atmosphere, the pressure would have steadily increased, causing the Plutonium in the RTGs to trigger a thermonuclear reaction, birthing the new sun.
It’s been almost twelve years since Galileo was buried in the heart of the gaseous planet and nothing’s happened. There is no second sun on our sky. So we’re in the clear, right?
Not exactly. There’s another gas giant in our solar system: Saturn and it’s not much smaller than Jupiter. And there’s another probe orbiting Saturn, the Cassini space probe. And it’s equipped with 73 pounds of Plutonium-238. And it’s still orbiting Saturn, until commanded otherwise by NASA. So are we in danger?
Physics says no.
Even if every atom of Plutonium aboard the space probe would participate in a nuclear detonation, it wouldn’t be enough to start a chain reaction. It would be like a drop of water in a swimming pool – harmless.
Our technology would need to steadily advance for hundreds if not thousands of years before we could reach the capability of star formation. And even if such technology would be available today, why would we need a second sun? Our own functions perfectly, even with massive UFOs stealing its energy once in a while. If one of the gas giants were to suddenly become a star, it would most likely disrupt the delicate balance of our solar system. Its gravitational pull would tug on the asteroids between Mars and Jupiter, undoubtedly sending some of them our way.
So why did this conspiracy theory gain traction? It must be our fascination with doomsday scenarios.
Groot nieuws, verschillende onderzoekers beweren dat ons zonnestelsel niet acht maar negen planeten heeft. Niemand heeft de mysterieuze negende planeet al gezien, toch zijn er sterke aanwijzingen om te geloven dat de spookplaneet bestaat.
Toen Pluto werd gedegradeerd van planeet tot dwergplaneet, ontstond er heel wat ophef. Mensen vonden het onterecht en plots was ons zonnestelsel een planeet armer. Nu kan iedereen weer op beide oren slapen want wetenschappers van Caltech beweren dat er toch negen planeten rondzweven in ons zonnestelsel.
De mysterieuze planeet draait op een erg grote afstand om de zon en dit is de reden waarom de planeet nog niet werd opgemerkt door ruimtetelescopen. Toch gaat het om een grote planeet: hij is maar liefst 500 keer zwaarder dan Pluto en tien keer groter dan de Aarde. De wetenschappers baseren zich op de vreemde manier waarop andere hemellichamen zich bewegen. Ze volgen een vaste baan, wat erop wijst dat er wel een negende planeet moet bestaan.
De planeet zal wellicht over enkele jaren dicht genoeg bij de zon staan om te kunnen opgemerkt worden door telescopen.
The year 2016 won't be much of a year for realistic space movies, but apocalypse, beloved franchises like "Star Wars" and "Star Trek," and romance on an interstellar stage will make for a year of epic adventure. And frankly, we can't wait to see them all.
Here is our guide to the most intrguing space movies of year, and maybe some surprising sci-fi finds:
"Moonwalkers" (Jan. 15)
Start off the year with this weird satire (based on a real conspiracy theory, apparently): A CIA agent is directed to hire Stanley Kubrick, legendary director of "2001: A Space Odyssey," to fake the moon landing in case the Apollo astronauts don't make it. When the real director proves elusive, the filming must go on — and hijinks ensue.
"The Fifth Wave" (Jan. 22)
A young woman fights to save her younger brother and survive an alien invasion after four waves of alien attacks have destroyed much of the Earth. The film is based on a popular science fiction novel published in 2013 — it's one in a series, so if all goes well, you'll likely see more from this franchise.
"Lazer Team" (Jan. 27)
Humanity is sent a superpowered suit to defend against an incoming alien threat. The only problem is, instead of a highly trained "Champion of Earth" getting his hands on the suit, it's four random guys, each sporting a single piece of the high-tech armor. The online comedy group Rooster Teeth funded the project (the team's first full-length film) through the crowdfunding platform Indiegogo. It will have a limited theatrical release and will also be released through YouTube's new paid subscription service.
"The Last Man on the Moon" (Feb. 26)
A new documentary follows the life of Gene Cernan, commander of NASA's Apollo 17 mission and the last man to walk on the moon. The film features new interviews with Apollo 12 crewmembers Alan Bean and Dick Gordon, Apollo 13 Cmdr. Jim Lovell, former NASA Flight Director Gene Kranz, and Chris Kraft, founder of Mission Control. Those interviews and rare archival footage are interspersed with Cernan's own recollections of the Apollo program and his life. (Space.comreported on the film's creation in December.)
"The Little Prince" (March 18)
A retired aviator describes his adventures with a little boy who lives on an asteroid to a young girl on Earth. Later, she is drawn into the story herself. The movie is inspired by the famous 1943 novella of the same name. The segments of the movie drawn from that classic story are filmed in stop-motion animation, while the rest is computer animated.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" (March 25)
Everyone's favorite Kryptonian alien, Superman, squares off against Batman in an epic-scale DC Comics crossover blockbuster. Plus, Wonder Woman joins the fight against a bigger threat.
"Independence Day: Resurgence" (June 24)
Twenty years after aliens attacked Earth in the 1996 blockbuster "Independence Day," they're coming back — and the next generation of heroes prepares to fight them off. Although "Independence Day" star Will Smith won't be in the new movie, it will feature his character's stepson and about half of the original cast. Perhaps a line from the trailer referring to a looming alien ship best reflects this movie's main goals: "That is definitely bigger than the last one." The film features Joey King, Maika Monroe, Liam Hemsworth and Bill Pullman.
"Star Trek Beyond" (July 22)
The new generation of "Star Trek" heroes sets out again in their third movie. This time, they're stranded on an alien planet that doesn't seem to appreciate the Federation's incursion. It's the first of the new movies not directed by J.J. Abrams, so it'll be interesting to see what the new team brings to the table. (Screenwriter Simon Pegg, who also plays Scotty, and director Justin Lin have said they hope to recapture the spirit of the original show.) Plus, Idris Elba is cast as an original villain.
"The Space Between Us" (July 29)
An online romance blooms between the first human born on Mars, played by Asa Butterfield, and a teenage girl living on Earth. He seeks her out, and the duo race to understand the mystery of his birth and secret upbringing (while dealing with the life-threatening embrace of Earth's gravity on the space-raised protagonist).
"Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" (Dec. 16)
The first of Disney's stand-alone spinoffs of the "Star Wars" franchise is set in between the prequel trilogy and before "A New Hope" — following the rebel fighters who stole the Death Star's secret plans, which Luke later used to blow up the moon-size superweapon. Confirmed cast members include Felicity Jones, Alan Tudyk, Mads Mikkelsen and 40 British soldiers. Stories like "Rogue One" will alternate with Disney's entries into the main series on a yearly basis.
"Passengers" (Dec. 21)
Jim Preston (played by Chris Pratt) wakes up from cryogenic sleep 90 years early on an interstellar voyage. Stuck awake among thousands of hibernating travelers, he decides to wake up another passenger, too (played by Jennifer Lawrence).
Some others to watch for:
"400 Days" (Jan. 12):In this movie produced by Syfy films, four astronauts make their way underground for a simulated deep-space mission. Then, things get scary.
"Terminus" (Jan. 22): A mysterious alien organism gives a man visions showing him how to prevent the Earth from destroying itself.
"Ratchet & Clank" (April 29):This film was originally slated for last year, but the galactic origin story of the beloved PlayStation video game characters is back with a new release date.
"A Beautiful Planet" (April 29):This vivid documentary made for IMAX screens will show Earth as seen from space.
"Captain America: Civil War"(May 6): These Avengers-focused Marvel movies often have space cameos one way or another, although this fight between Steve Rogers (Captain America) and Tony Stark (Iron Man) about superhero accountability seems particularly Earth-bound.
"Ice Age: Collision Course" (July 22):The fifth "Ice Age" installment ventures to space after a frozen flying saucer activates and the series' animals have to stop an incoming threat to Earth.
"Trolls" (Nov. 4):In this upcoming flick starring Justin Timberlake, the famous troll dolls from the '80s are aliens.
So which space movie are you looking forward to most this year? Let us know in the comments below and happy watching!
New Paper Asserts that Life Could Survive on a Planet Orbiting a Black Hole
New Paper Asserts that Life Could Survive on a Planet Orbiting a Black Hole
Living on a planet orbiting a black hole might be a reality in our future.
Living on a planet orbiting a black hole might be better than you’d imagine. In fact, looking for real estate in such a location could be in our (very) distant future.
A BRIGHT BLACK HOLE
According to the second law of thermodynamics, life requires a temperature difference to provide a source of useable energy. Life on Earth, for example, relies on the heat of the Sun and the cold vacuum of space. What if you reversed the situation, though?
A planet orbiting a black hole, for example, would experience a cold sun and a hot sky. That’s what Tomáš Opatrný of Palacký University in Olomouc, Czech Republic says in his research.
Comparing a black hole to a Sun might sound strange, but black holes, despite the name, are actually some of the brightest objects in the universe. Gas and other matter that falls into the hole is superheated and glows as it accretes. However, an older black hole that has already cleared its surroundings, effectively has zero temperature, meaning it could potentially act as a cold Sun, according to Opatrný.
SUSTAINING LIFE UNDER A BLACK SUN
The rest of the universe is actually pretty warm compared to a black hole, thanks to the heat left over from the explosion of the big bang.
Avi Loeb of Harvard University has previously pointed out the universe’s background temperature would be 300 kelvin (27 ˚C) around 15 million years after the big bang, making it warm enough to host liquid water.
At this temperature, a planet around a cool black hole would receive enough power to support complex life. However, because the planet would be so new to the universe, it’s unlikely that it would have had enough time to evolve to explore this power source.
TURNING TO MOVIES
The team, led by Opatrný, decided to check out the film Interstellar, which they learned explored a similar concept. The film depicts a world called “Miller’s planet” which orbits very close to a massive, spinning black hole called Gargntua.

Like any good researchers, the team began to ask questions. “We saw the movie, it was a very interesting idea, but then we started thinking about the problems,” says Opatrný.
For example, the planet in the film is swept by huge tidal waves of water. But Opatrný says that, for a planet like one depicted in the movie, molten aluminum would be more likely. That said, if the planet was further out from the black hole, conditions would be cooler, and the planet might be able to sustain life.
In the paper, when discussing the ultimate hope for life around a black hole, Opatrný explains: “For nonrotating black holes and the present temperature of the cosmic microwave background, the available power appears to be rather small for the living standards of our civilization. One might speculate of the distant future when hydrogen as the nuclear fuel for stars is exhausted and black holes together with background radiation become one of the few relevant sources of negative entropy. Nevertheless, with the accelerated expansion of the Universe the background radiation becomes colder so that even less power would be available.”
Thus, it sounds like there isn’t any hope for life forming on planets orbiting these monstrous beasts. However, remember that we are just talking about nonrotating black holes. Things change when they start spinning.
Opatrný continues, “the situation is different for fast rotating Kerr black holes and planets on close orbits: gravitational and Doppler shifts change the temperature map of the sky to allow for harvesting much more power”
All of these speculations do have a purpose. For example, research into sustaining life near a black could become relevant 100 trillion years from now, when all the stars have died out and the universe is an eternal wasteland of coldness and eternal darkness.
Planets around black holes will certainly be an option for inhabitants.
“When the stars are gone, black holes will be a last-resort source of energy,” says Krauss. However, he adds, “for the practical future, there are much easier ways to live.”
Today, astronomers at the California Institute of Technology announced that a giant icy planet might be hiding at the edge of our known solar system. This planet has been appropriately named “Planet Nine” (usurping the title previous held by Pluto).

Notably, this is early research, and the existence of the planet is, at the present point, simply inferred.
In other words, the planet has not been seen directly using telescopes, but in the published paper in the Astronomical Journal Michael Brown and Konstantin Batygin explained how they acquired evidence of this planet’s existence based on other astronomical data.
The two astronomers initially set out to prove that Planet Nine does not exist. In 2014, another paper published in the journal Nature, hinted at the possible existence of this new planet. It was written by Scott Shepard from the Carnegie Institution of Science and Chad Trujillo from the Gemini Observation in Hawaii.
They suggested that this giant planet existed due to the impact that it seemed to have on the orbits of other, nearby dwarf worlds.
Brown even admitted he thought that this idea “was crazy,” saying that it is always suggested that a new planet exists when strange orbital behavior occurs.
To that end, with the help of Batygin, they used mathematical equations and computer models to prove this theory wrong. Or at least, they tried to. They were utterly surprised at the results of their “investigation”.
Their results indicate that a 9th planet does exist. “Until then, we didn’t really believe our results ourselves. It just didn’t make sense to us,” Brown said.
THE FINDINGS
Planet Nine is described to have 10 times the mass of Earth. This planet would exert an influence over the orbits of the smaller bodies and keep them from coming as close to the Sun as they should. It would also slowly twist these orbits by 90 degrees, making them periodically perpendicular to the plane of the solar system.
“In the back of my head, I had this nagging memory that someone had found some of these modulating objects and not known what to make of them,” Brown said. “And sure enough, these objects do exist. And they were exactly where our theory predicts they should be.”
Now, the search is on to find and prove the existence of Planet Nine.
Sheppard stated that the chances of finding it has increased from 40% to 60%. Planet Nine is estimated to be located 20 times farther than the eigth planet, Neptune. It is believed to be made out of ice, rocks and gas.
Planetary scientist Alessandro Morbidelli from the Côte d’Azur Observatory in Nice, France agreed with Brown that the chances of finding it is much bigger this time. “I immediately felt that this paper, for the first time, was providing convincing evidence for a new planet in the solar system,” said Morbidelli, an expert in these kinds of orbital movements who was not involved in either study.
“I don’t see any alternative explanation to that offered by Batygin and Brown.” It is now just a matter of “when” they will discover this massive planet.
There don’t appear to be any official records of a UFO ever shutting down a major airport in the U.S. In China on the other hand, it’s happened three times in five years. Are Chinese air traffic controllers more respectful of UFO airspace … or more fearful?
The latest instance of a Chinese airport closing down because of a UFO sighting appears to have happened late last week or over the weekend. A video of a newscast showing the UFO was posted on August 29th, 2015.
There’s no indication of which airport it is (at least for non-Chinese speakers). At the beginning, it shows a round object passing over the airport. The object appears to change forms and become elongated to a cigar shape. The video shows military personnel apparently watching the UFO but no one seems to be mobilizing or panicking. Could it be because they’ve been through this before?
On July 7th, 2010, a UFO was spotted at the Xiaoshan Airport in Hangzhou, China, at 8:40 p.m. by the crew of a plane preparing to land. The crew notified air traffic control and the airport was immediately shut down. All outgoing flights were grounded and 18 incoming flights were diverted to airports in Ningbo and Wuxi.

Normal operations were resumed somewhere between one and four hours later, but passengers and local residents were left in the dark as to what the UFO might be. Speculation ranged from a U.S. missile to a Russian satellite to a secret Chinese military plane to a meteor. Officials from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) told the media that the incident was “under investigation” but no record of any formal explanation is readily available. There seems to be no information from the Shanghai UFO Investigative Research Center either. Why not?
Perhaps they were warned by yet another UFO shutting down an airport, this time on October 6, 2010, in Inner Mongolia. The news report mentions the previous sighting and says it was a military test, but gives no details nor no information on the next one.
Three Chinese airports shut down by UFOs in five years. Do you think there’s more shutdowns that we don’t know about? Why are Chinese officials so quick to close airports after UFO sightings? What do they know and why don’t WE know it?
