Very Eerie: Female Soviet Astronaut Made Recordings In Space Right Before She Died (Video)

(Before It's News)

It is safe to say that being an astronaut and travelling to space is not for the weak. Just think, those astronauts are up there alone for an extended amount of time. Think of all of the things that could go wrong. After all, not all space missions were perfect and glitch-free.

There was a very bizarre accident that no one can explain, even to this day. It involves one Soviet cosmonaut’s last moments in space during the beginning of the Space Race, between the United States and the USSR.

Many remember when the first trip into orbit was successful and when the first man walked the moon. On April 12, 1961, Russia was successful on sending the first human being into Earth’s orbit. The pilot, Yuri Gagarin, manned the Vostok capsule. The United States then followed in Russia’s footsteps a month later and sent their own astronaut, Alan Shepard, on a sub-orbital mission during the Mercury space program. Sensing this was a competition, Russia was prepared to send another man up to space. However, this time they would be sending him into multiple orbits, beating Gagarin’s record.

Yuri Gagarin saying hello to the press during a visit to Malmö, Sweden 1964.

The story is that the Soviets had planned to launch the mission before the Americans could send up a second astronaut to circle the Earth. American John Glenn would finally achieve that mission on February 20, 1962. However, the next manned Vostok orbital launch would happen on May 16, 1961. The capsule ended up achieving 17 circuits around the Earth.

Although the Russians had already topped the Americans by achieving the 17 circuits around Earth, they decided to top one more thing: sending the first woman into space.

During the mission everything seemed to be going well. However, before the woman could re-enter the atmosphere, something went terribly wrong. Whatever happened next is unexplained and no one knows what happened for sure. It will send chills through anyone reading these records.

Although these records are not exactly proven to be accurate, the story goes that by the time re-entry was attempted, it had been a full week. By that point the ship’s oxygen supplies were running low and were nearly depleted. There was one conversation recorded before the woman suddenly disappeared from the radio. The woman ended up calling into the radio (translated of course):

“listen… listen! come in! come in… come in… talk to me! talk to me! I am hot… I am hot! what? forty- five? what? forty-five? fifty? yes… yes… breathing… breathing… oxygen… oxygen… I am hot… isn’t this dangerous? it’s all… yes… how is this? what? talk to me! how should I transmit? yes… what? our transmission begins now… forty-one… this way… yes… I feel hot… I feel hot… it’s all… it’s hot… I feel hot… I can see a flame… I can see a flame! I feel hot… I feel hot… thirty-two… thirty-two… forty-one… am I going to crash? yes… yes… I feel hot… I feel hot! I will re-enter…”

It appears that the re-entry was not going well. It seemed that the ship was gaining too much heat as the poor woman was slowly being burned alive by the increasing temperatures. She also begins to get emotional towards the end, knowing that her fate would be coming soon.

After that last recording, the radio fell silent; nothing was heard from the woman. Three days later on May 26, 1961 the Soviets announced that the ship had made it back to Earth. The ship had been severely burned with no woman inside. The satellite was about the size of a bus and its launch had never been disclosed. To this day, the Russian government denies that a tragedy ever happened. They keep passing off the radio recordings as the media trying to get attention. It is said that the Russians have several recordings from lost astronauts over the years. Like the case of this woman, they continue to deny that those people were ever up in space.

What would it take to put an astronaut on Mars? 

• From the sectionScience & Environment

Image copyrightThinkstock

A joint European and Russian space mission - the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) - has left for Mars to study methane and other rare gases in the Red Planet's atmosphere, and drop a lander on its surface.

The TGO is expected to take seven months to travel the 500 million km (310 million miles) to Mars, and then almost another year to manoeuvre itself into position, meaning the satellite's observations will not properly start until late 2017.

What does this mean for plans to put an astronaut on Mars?

In 2010 President Obama tasked the US space Agency Nasa with the goal of putting an astronaut in Martian orbit, and later on to the planet itself.

But the challenges - technical, political and financial - are enormous. A recentreport from the US Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel raised safety concerns about the proposed transportation spacecraft and criticised Nasa for a lack of detail in its overall Mars plans.

Four experts - including two senior figures from Nasa - talk to the BBC Inquiry programme about what it would take to put a man on Mars.

Bill Hill: Getting there

Bill Hill is deputy associate administrator of the Exploration Systems Development division at Nasa. He oversees the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System.

"Keeping the weight down of the vehicle, the spacecraft, that's our key focus. The bigger you make the rocket, the more mass you have to lift off the surface of the Earth.

"Say you want to go for 500 days - you're going to have to take food, water for the crew to consume and use for hygiene, all the air, so it just multiplies the amount of weight that you have to lift off the Earth's surface.

"That's where the Space Launch System - the heavy lift launch vehicle - will come in. Where the Saturn V basically took up an Apollo capsule and a lander for going to the lunar surface, we're looking at 130 metric tonne lift capability that can put somewhere between 40 to 50 metric tonnes out past the low Earth orbit. It's a capability that, frankly, nobody else has today.

Image copyrightGetty Images

"The crew spacecraft Orion can actually be used for up to about 1,000 days, and that's how we're designing the systems inside - the environmental control systems and life support systems to support a crew of four initially for up to 1,000 days. It'll have basic benches, crew interfaces, flat screen monitors, a toilet and some hygiene capability. It's basically for transportation, not necessarily to live in for the full duration to go to Mars and back.

"We would use a module, a habitat portion, for where the crew would live and work on a daily basis, [with] a much larger volume. That is going to need areas to store food, tanks to store oxygen and water. Our goal is to have some sort of closed loop system for life support where we will pull water out of the air, regenerate carbon dioxide into oxygen, and do similar things like we're doing on the space station today where we have a urine processor and reclaim the water for drinking.

"We'll probably not use it to enter the Martian atmosphere because then we'd have to figure out a way to connect it to something to lift it off the surface and bring it back. But we need the heavy lift launch vehicle and the crew spacecraft; using those two fundamental cornerstones as our initial capabilities to actually go out and explore."

Samantha Cristoforetti: Learning to survive in space

Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti has spent longer in space on a single mission than any other woman, returning to Earth last June after 200 days. Her experience - and that of Scott Kelly who has just returned after 340 days in space - is vital to understanding the potential impact of a lengthy voyage to Mars.

"You lose muscle, because you're not using your muscles that much. But you also lose bone mass, because bone is actually a living tissue. All the time we have bone cells that die, and are replaced by new, fresh bone cells. In a healthy person, that is in balance, so that you always keep your overall bone mass.

"But what happens in space is because you don't have that mechanical load on the bones, you destroy a lot more bone cells than you've actually built.

Image copyrightGetty Images

What would it take to put a man on Mars?

"We try to induce some load on our muscles and bones by working out for about two hours every day. Believe it or not, we can do weightlifting in weightlessness. We have a really cool machine which is based on vacuum cylinders, and it allows you to do things like squats, dead lifts and bench presses.

"As soon as you get to space, fluids shift from the lower parts of your body towards the upper parts. Visually you can sometimes see it on astronauts, because they have what we call a puffy face and skinny legs, and that's really due to this fluid redistribution, because there is no gravity pulling the fluids towards the leg like it is on the ground when you're standing.

"We don't know everything quite yet. Quite a number of astronauts actually lose a little bit of eyesight when they are in space for a long time, and that might be related to an increased pressure in the head due to that bodily shift.

"In the Space Station we're still in an area close to Earth, which is protected from damaging radiation coming from outer space. Once you leave that protected environment, then you are much more exposed to dangerous radiations. So we will definitely have to come up with a good, solid plan on how to protect our crew on the way to the Moon or on the way to Mars.

"We are not really very isolated on the Space Station - we're in continuous contact with the ground. You can basically communicate in real time. We get the news. We even get to have video conferences with our families, which is all wonderful, but only a fraction of that I think would be possible if you went on a journey to Mars."

Jason Crusan: Working in deep space

Jason Crusan is the director of the Advanced Exploration Systems division at Nasa.

"What would they breathe? We would actually bring oxygen with us. Mars atmosphere has a lot of CO2 in its atmosphere so we can remove the oxygen out of it to create breathable air. Initially we'll bring a lot of the gases with us that we need to do that but over time we'll actually bring machinery with us to actually separate out from the atmosphere breathable oxygen.

Mars satellite hints at liquid water - BBC News

Nasa scientists believe that dark stripes on Mars are caused by trickling water. Data from one of the US space agency's satellites shows the features, which appear on slopes, to be associated with salt deposits. Such salts could alter the freezing and vaporisation points of water, keeping it in a fluid state long enough to move.

Jason Crusan - Pioneering Space: Not Your Great-Great-Grandparent's Manifest Destiny

https://youtu.be/l2p3SBIvp18

"When we first started, we didn't believe there was any water on Mars. It's a bit of a joke now because we've discovered there's a significant amount of water on the planet, and we would look at the ability to capture water from the surface of Mars and process it and use it, much like you would here.

"Food is a challenging area. We obviously fly all of our food into space today, we don't grow anything on orbit besides experiments. Food has a shelf life; bringing our own food reduces its nutritional value and we're talking about missions that are maybe a year to three years in duration. So we are looking at how we grow not our primary food sources, but food to augment the food that we bring with us.

"Near the Equator you would see temperatures that are kind of similar to a spring day here on Earth, but then you'd have night temperatures that would actually be quite extreme, going to minus 100F. The temperatures are extremely challenging, and so you always have to live within a spacesuit or some kind of rover or habitat while you're there.

"One of the best radiation shields is water, so that will be stored in key areas in order to provide shielding within the structures themselves. [We would] eventually have radiation sensors in orbit, monitoring for radiation events so that we can give a warning to the crew before a significant event so they can go into a sheltered area.

"The large dust storms that you see in [films] would not have the effect that you see in Hollywood, because the atmosphere is relatively thin. Even what would look like a hurricane force doesn't have the force to do significant damage to your habitat, but there'll be challenges if you're outside in it because your ability to see from all the dust will be impaired.

"I think logistics will be the biggest challenge. If something breaks, you're a long way from home to get a spare. Our entire experience in space to date has been an orbit around Earth or to the Moon, relatively close distances. In the space station today if something breaks you can send a replacement part.

"When we go to Mars, we have to take everything that you'd ever expect to break, and even those things we wouldn't expect to break."

Dr Jill Stuart: Political will

Dr Jill Stuart is editor-in-chief of the Elsevier Journal of Space Policy.

"There's the question of who has the money to do this, where will it come from, and what will their incentives be?

"I like the narrative of [the Moon landings] being about science and the frontier of human kind, but in reality, I would argue politics was very much behind it. It's very expensive, so in order to go into outer space, to have a manned space programme, you need to have political clout, the backing of your population.

"During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States were competing with each other in the space race, and outer space was a proxy arena for them to compete in a way that didn't actually require military conflict.

"I don't think the space race analogy would apply so clearly now - it's a different environment.

Image copyrightGetty Images

What would it take to put a man on Mars?

"The US space programme is subject to political administrations; Americans like the idea of space exploration but there's not an obvious constituency for it in terms of voting, so it tends to get tacked on later on in an individual president's term, so it's difficult to say whether or not these plans for Mars will outlast multiple administrations.

"But if it does then I think that they are the most likely to have the next manned mission, and would probably involve junior partners who are political allies in order to shore up those alliances, and also to have the financial support.

"They would probably also partner with commercial entities such as Space-X or Blue Origin - new companies that are government-backed but private - and are providing a lot of the space infrastructure to get there.

"There are discussions amongst politicians and scientists and the commercial industry so I think it's definitely the next big prize. I do think it will happen, but I think the timeline will probably be longer than is being talked about right now. I'm going to say 2045."

Scientists confirm: Advanced alien civilizations possible in 50 galaxies

Just imagine the possibilities out there.

Leading Astronomers and Scientists have stated that Advanced alien life is possible in 50 galaxies,, after finding they are emitting unusually high levels of radiation. A team of scientists at Penn State University in the US, has been studying observations from Nasa’s WISE orbiting observatory looking for traces of the huge energy produced by technologies from sophisticated extra-terrestrial races.

Just as Planet Earth sends heat and light deep out into space, researchers say a similar signature would be emitted by other advanced civilisations. And after scouring 100,000 galaxies they have come across 50 which hold promise.
“We found about 50 galaxies that have unusually high levels of mid-infrared radiation,” said Roger Griffith, a researcher at Penn State and the lead author of the paper
“Our follow-up studies of those galaxies may reveal if the origin of their radiation results from natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.”

After scouring 100,000 galaxies they have come across at least 50 which hold promise. “We found about 50 galaxies that have unusually high levels of mid-infrared radiation,” said Roger Griffith, a researcher at Penn State and the lead author of the paper.

“Our follow-up studies of those galaxies may reveal if the origin of their radiation results from natural astronomical processes, or if it could indicate the presence of a highly advanced civilization.” Roger Griffith, a researcher at Penn State

Theoretical physicist Freeman Dyson originally proposed in the 1960s that advanced alien civilizations beyond Earth could be detected by the tell tale evidence of their mid-infrared emissions. It was not until space-based telescopes like the WISE satellite that it became possible to make sensitive measurements of this radiation emitted by objects in space.

“The idea behind our research is that, if an entire galaxy had been colonized by an advanced spacefaring civilization, the energy produced by that civilization’s technologies would be detectable in mid-infrared wavelengths — exactly the radiation that the WISE satellite was designed to detect for other astronomical purposes,” said Dr Jason Wright, an assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics at the Center for Exoplanets and Habitable Worlds at Penn State University, who conceived of and initiated the research.

“Whether an advanced spacefaring civilization uses the large amounts of energy from its galaxy’s stars to power computers, space flight, communication, or something we can’t yet imagine, fundamental thermodynamics tells us that this energy must be radiated away as heat in the mid-infrared wavelengths.

“This same basic physics causes your computer to radiate heat while it is turned on.

“As we look more carefully at the light from these galaxies,” said Wright, “we should be able to push our sensitivity to alien technology down to much lower levels, and to better distinguish heat resulting from natural astronomical sources from heat produced by advanced technologies. This pilot study is just the beginning.”

Could there be civilisations in our next door neighbour Galaxy ‘Andromeda

The team also found new phenomenon in our very own galaxy, The Milky Way. Among the exciting discoveries are a bright nebula around the nearby star 48 Librae, and a cluster of objects easily detected by WISE in a patch of sky that appears totally black when viewed with telescopes that detect only visible light.

“This cluster is probably a group of very young stars forming inside a previously undiscovered molecular cloud, and the 48 Librae nebula apparently is due to a huge cloud of dust around the star, but both deserve much more careful study,” Matthew Povich, an assistant professor of astronomy at Cal Poly Pomona said.

The research team’s first paper about its Glimpsing Heat from Alien Technologies Survey (G-HAT), is published in the Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series.

Perhaps we are looking for where our Alien Visitor’s are travelling from….

U.I.P Summary

Come on let’s get real the Universe is infested with life out there and we can not rely too much on our present day technology to search out other civilizations…..because let’s be honest even the scientists have stated recently that they don’t really know much about anything in reference to space the final Frontier!

This is an exciting discovery and who knows what advanced civilizations lie out there in an infinite Universe!

But one things for sure, if Aliens out there are far more advanced than us then they WILL know where we are in space and probably have for a very long time!

Perhaps we are like a sight seeing holiday for Aliens out there?!

The Mysterious Object Which Will Pass Earth in 2017 – Scientists Left Confused

An artistic depiction of what the “alien probe” may look like. / Photo credit

A mysterious unknown object, that many researchers claim is an ‘alien probe’, is set to fly past Earth in 2017. The strange object which is now known as 1991 VG, was first spotted way back in November 1991 by astronomer James Scotti at the University of Arizona.

It has baffled and confused top astronomers ever since, because of its very strange and unique rotation and longevity in space.  Some leading experts suggest it may be a section of the Apollo 12 rocket, but Scotti claims the timings don’t add up and has instantly dismissed this as a ridiculous idea designed to cover up the reality of the situation!

A mysterious object, that conspiracy theorists claim is an ‘alien probe’, is set to fly past Earth in 2017. Known as 1991 VG, the object was first spotted in November 1991 by astronomer James Scotti at the University of Arizona. It has baffled astronomers ever since because of its strange rotation and longevity in space

‘We looked into all the possibilities for it being man-made,’ Scotti told Motherboard. ‘There were a few possible spacecraft and rocket bodies that might be 1991 VG.’

‘But when we looked into each, we were able to eliminate each of them.’

Many others argue it may be some kind of a top secret rocket that the Soviets or American sent into orbit, well hidden from the rest of the world.

When Scotti first spotted this mysterious strange object which is now called 1991 VG, it was about 10 metres in diameter, passing 280,000 miles from Earth – around 50,000 miles further than the Earth and the moon.

This strange object showed an unusual rapid rate of rotation and its brightness appeared to fluctuate. This behaviour, has not ever been seen before from any asteroid of its size – This mysterious object also had an orbit that was strikingly similar to that of Earth.

Once data was gathered on 1991 VG, Scotti realised this was the second time the unidentified object had passed Earth. The first was March of 1975.

Perhaps this strange object IS in fact an Alien probe sent from the darkest reaches of space!?

Incoming unknown object

In the incredibly in-depth report, Motherboard notes that Duncan Steel, an astronomer at University of Adelaide, suggested it might be an ‘alien probe observed in the vicinity of our planet.’

The intriguing thing here is that Asteroids do NOT tend to survive long enough, or remain on the same orbit, to pass Earth in the same spot twice.

An artists Impression of this unknown potential Alien probe

Steel only suggested the theory in order to disprove it. He has since told Motherboard that he doesn’t think VG 1991 is of extra-terrestrial origin, however on the flip side of this it could also quite possibly be so!

Many truth seekers around the world are excited about this discovery and believe this could be a huge ‘incoming’ piece of disclosure in 2017, citing Steele’s work as their source piece of evidence.

When it does fly past Earth sometime in the summer of 2017, it will only be seen in the southern hemisphere.

Since Scotti first spotted VG 1991, astronomers have discovered that asteroids under 100 meters have remarkably fast rotations.

As a result Scotti says we can’t rule out the possibility that VG 1991 is a natural space rock.

‘One possibility would be that it is ejecta from a lunar impact,’ he told Motherboard.

‘Another possibility is that the Yarkovsky force, caused by the thermal emissions of a rotating object, systematically pushed the object around over long times. It’s still a puzzle.’ Said Scotti.

As yet there is NO way of confirming what this unknown object is until it gets closer to planet earth, but in the meantime we will have to keep guessing.

U.I.P SUMMARY – Well here is yet another story that the media try to keep rather quiet about! And it is not a surprise that this is being kept silent as there as yet is NO 100% explanation as to what this mysterious object could actually be.

If this story seems far fetched then it really isn’t as we have sent out our very own probe like crafts, like the Voyager 1 which was launched out in space in 1977 and now MANY millions and millions of miles away from earth – whose to say that some far advanced alien civilisation didn’t send out this potential probe way before the human race ever existed!?

The Universe is infested with life, so it will be interesting to see whether this is an alien probe or something else.

This Ancient Map Will Challenge Everything You’ve Been Told About the Past

Humanity’s history is extremely puzzling. On one hand, we have at our disposal only a small portion of knowledge from the past, most of it being destroyed or questionable in the light of new discoveries. On the other hand, the pre-existing information seems to challenge our way of thinking and make us doubt that what has been proposed as reality so far may in fact be distorted or not entirely true.

---

 

We live in a world with plenty of unexplained discoveries. From ancient texts depicting alternative historic events, to ancient structures, bizarre rituals and natural phenomenon that defy the human logic and pass in the unexplained section. Humanity appears to have amnesia, gathering bits of the past in the hopes of one day discovering the truth from the bigger picture, but so far we have no higher entity to confirm or explain the entire journey we followed on this planet.

 

The enigmatic Piri Reis map is an ancient document which clearly challenges today’s scientific doctrine. This piece of knowledge is an authentic document that was put together at Constantinople in AD 1513 by the military intelligence of Admiral Piri Reis of the Ottoman Empire, a renowned historical figure accounted by numerous historical records.

 

 

The map highlights the western coast of Africa, the eastern coast of South America, and the northern coast of Antarctica. The Ottoman Admiral kept a copy of it, and the original, which was discovered in 1929, is comprised of various documents dating back to at least the fourth century BC, plus information gathered my multiple explorers. So, what’s so challenging about this map?

 

More than one thing, that’s for certain. But, probably the most amazing fact is that it incorporates a continent considered by our history books to have been discovered only in 1818 – Antarctica.

 

Equally intriguing is the fact that the Piri Reis map depicts a 2.7 million-square-miles region in the Antarctic known as the ‘Queen Maud Land,’ and in accordance to modern science the highlighted area should be millions of years old since the ice sheet covering Antarctica appears to be melted.

 

The scientific point of view considers the ice-cap which covers the Arctic to be millions of years old. However, according to the Piri Reis map, the northern part of the continent has been mapped before the ice did engulf it, indicating that these regions went through a long ice-free span that might had ended approximately six thousand years ago, theory which contradicts with the current historic standards and beliefs.

 

 

So who could had possibly mapped this area if there were no humans on Earth millions of years ago? Or better said, could history prove to be wrong when describing the ice in the Arctic as being millions of years old?

 

When Charles Hapgood, a former university history professor, wrote to the Unitated States Air Force Reconnaissance Technical Squadron (SAC) about this geographic anomaly, a reply came from Harold Z. Ohlmeyer, a Lt Colonel, USAF, as it follows:

 

 

“This indicates the coastline had been mapped before it was covered by the ice-cap,” he confirmed. “We have no idea how the data on this map can be reconciled with the supposed state of geographical knowledge in 1513,” Ohlmeyer added.

 

In response, Professor Charles Hapgood said the following:

 

It appears that accurate information has been passed down from people to people. It appears that the charts must have originated with a people unknown and they were passed on, perhaps by the Minoans and the Phoenicians, who were, for a thousand years and more, the greatest sailors of the ancient world.

We have evidence that they were collected and studied in the great library of Alexandria (Egypt) and that compilations of them were made by the geographers that worked there.

 

When Hapgood and mathematician Richard W. Strachan tried to understand how the map was created, they stumbled upon the most interesting hypothesis. After comparing the map with modern day photographs taken by satellites, they discovered significant similarities. From this point of view, it’s plausible that the Piri Reis map had been achieved compiling aerial photographs taken from a really high spot, be it from a mountain top or even from the air. If so, how can science interpret this if the map is considered to be millions of years old?

 

A spaceship hovers high above Cairo and points its camera straight downward. When the film is developed, the following picture would emerge: everything that is in a radius of about 5,000 miles of Cairo is reproduced correctly, because it lies directly below the lens. But the countries and continents become increasingly distorted the farther we move our eyes from the center of the picture.

Why is this? Owing to the spherical shape of the earth, the continents away from the center “sink downward.” South America, for example, appears strangely distorted length-ways, exactly as it does on the Piri Reis maps! And exactly as it does on the photographs taken from the American lunar probes.” – (Erich Von Daniken 92)

 

Is it possible that this ancient map was made using aerial technology in a time uncharted by modern day science? Or if this isn’t the case, who had the technological means to attempt such a detailed geographical analysis of Antarctica a couple million years ago? And most of all, what ancient technique allowed for them to design the map as if it was seen from above?

 

Whatever the case, the Piri Reis map contributes to the assumption of ancient civilizations far greater developed than what science is letting us know. It’s unexplainable how the Mayans, Sumerians, and others knew of celestial bodies that in reality can only be detected using modern tools, but considering the conclusive evidence given by this ancient map, we can form a slight idea of the means possessed by the ancients.

 

If aerial photography was a reality in the past, it’s not hard to imagine how the old dwellers of the Earth reached those heights. If such information will be officially disclosed in the future remains to be seen, but until that time comes, it’s better to use our own judgement when it comes to finding answers. The truth may already be among us.

Mars is Inhabited by Humans and We Have a Secret Pact with Aliens, Space Activist Reveals

According to multiple sources, world leaders have already established contact with otherworldly intelligent beings and are now governing the Earth in accordance with a universal pact between many advanced races residing in the universe.

---

 

While for some of us it’s undeniable that extraterrestrial beings exist somewhere in the cosmos, there are others who claim that these beings already know of our existence, and are even visiting us or residing on or inside planet Earth. Some of these affirmations come from reputable persons that had worked in different environments either related to space or to secretive affairs on the planet.

 

For them, the transition between 2010 and 2020 is considered crucial for humanity because it will reveal the final proof involving intelligent entities that had been, and are still visiting our planet. According to them, the world is slowly being prepared for full alien disclosure.

 

Relevant details are provided by Alfred Webre in an interview for a renowned Spanish publication, La Vanguardia. He is the international Director of the Institute for Cooperation in Space (ICIS,) and works towards the preservation of our species by trying to prevent the weaponization of space and transform the permanent war economy into a peaceful, cooperative, democratic Space Age society, re-integrating with a larger, intelligent Universe society.

 

 

He shared some of his ideas in the interview below:

 

I am 67 years old. I was born on a naval base in Florida during the Second World War. I live in Vancouver. I am a Doctor of Laws and a judge in the Kuala Lumpur Court of Justice for war crimes, I am married, I have a son and two stepdaughters. We live in a universe of intelligent origin. There is evidence that there are ethical civilizations more advanced than our own, who participate in our developmental process.

 

La Vanguardia: Give me evidence.

 

Webre: Declarations of The United States government employees who have testified their participation in secret programs of relations with certain extraterrestrial civilizations.

 

La Vanguardia: This means that we have already made contact with the extraterrestrials?

 

Webre: Yes, according to those witnesses, the United States government has been working with them secretly since the 1950s.

 

Andrew Basiago, son of a CIA official, was enrolled at the age of seven in a secret program for super-gifted children who were trained to be ambassadors before the extraterrestrial race.

 

La Vanguardia: Any contact?

 

Webre: There has been a meeting with 3 astronauts from the planet Mars. In January 2009, the CIA employee Virginia Olds confirmed that CIA knows there is a humanoid civilization living under the surface of Mars.

 

We think that in the year 9500 B.C. fragments of the Vela supernova entered the solar system and destroyed the ecology on Mars. The Martians, 1.500 years more ethically and technologically advanced than us humans, sheltered underground.

 

In December 2008 we published a report that included photos taken by the NASA robot Rover Spirit, in which one can identify certain species of humanoids, animals and structures on the Martian surface. You can see it on www.exopolitics.com.

 

La Vanguardia: There are three astronauts who assert to have seen extraterrestrial life.

 

Webre: Yes, Buzz Aldrin who travelled aboard the Apollo XI said that when they arrived on the Moon in 1969, there were two large extraterrestrial ships around the great crater, his version was verified by high NASA officials.

 

La Vanguardia: I am amazed.

 

Webre: Doctor Steven Greer, director of the Disclosure Project, has gathered more than 500 testimonies from military, government and intelligence of high rank that are witness to the extraterrestrial presence and they were made public in May 2009, in the National Press Club of Washington.

 

 

La Vanguardia: Mexico, Chile, Brazil and Peru have released their UFO records.

 

 

Webre: Recently so did France, Sweden and Denmark, and the United Kingdom that brought to light 7.200 UFO files compiled by D155, a secret unit of the Ministry of Defense.

 

La Vanguardia: Why not divulge the life on Mars?

 

Webre: Because of political reasons. We are going to insert a question invoking the freedom of information laws, so that NASA admits the intelligent life on Mars.

 

La Vanguardia: And the Martians, why don’t they appear in society?

 

Webre: Our planet is one of a low order and we assume it is under a quarantine that is imposed by the government of the universe.

 

La Vanguardia: And this quarantine ends now…

 

Webre: We think that the ethical extraterrestrial civilizations have used the UFO phenomenon to acclimatize us to their existence, and that between 2010 and 2020 we can start having open relationships with these civilizations.

 

La Vanguardia: So the first contact will occur with the Martians?

 

Webre: Yes, because there are many mutual benefits, they can give us technologies and knowledge, and we have a precious green planet they can migrate to.

 

La Vanguardia: How does the universe function?

 

Webre: There are many dimensions and universes that are parallel to our own. Some extraterrestrial civilizations come from other dimension, from other parallel universe, that is why the UFOs can appear and disappear.

 

La Vanguardia: How are these more evolved civilizations like?

 

Webre: Looks like we are living in an organized universe and the more ethical civilizations have achieved domination of the time dimension and it is them who will probably develop our reality.

 

La Vanguardia: You make it sound terrible. 

 

Webre: According to some theories we are evolving on a very accelerated pace, in order to abandon the economy of permanent war and to turn it into a sustainable economy. The human consciousness is developing to enter the universal age and to openly connect with those other civilizations.

 

La Vanguardia: They could lend us a hand.

 

 

Webre: There is a primary guideline: do not interfere in the evolution of a civilization from other planet. But in very little time, man will learn how to use the quantum teleportation and to extract energy from space. We are in a transitional era where we must decide if we choose destruction or evolution.

 

La Vanguardia: Does your work consist of studying the great government of the universe?

 

Webre: Exopolitics is a social science that studies the relationships between our human civilization and other intelligent civilizations in the universe. One of our first steps in the universal diplomacy will be through the Martian civilization.

 

La Vanguardia: I understand.

   

Webre: I personally work with Doctor Norman Miranda, the cabinet chief of the president of UNO General Assembly, so that UNO will represent the Earth before the Martian civilization.

 

If Webre’s predictions prove to be true we are yet to find out, but considering that his beliefs are shared by many others, it’s likely that at least a grain of truth resides in his story. There’s clearly much disinformation ‘flying around’ the internet these days which turns people into skeptics when it comes to the UFO phenomenon and a former Martian civilization, but it’s likely that instead of presenting the entire history of humanity as something totally different, our governments choose to play this game of denial to their advantage. After all, what better way to discredit the people than not giving them the attention they request?

Television News Catch Formidable Glimpse of Yet Another Floating City Over China

Russian UFO Dogfights: Reverse Engineered Alien Technology Kapustin Yar Military Base,

Very little was known about UFO investigations in Russia and the republics of the former USSR during the communist era. UFOs were officially labeled “capitalist propaganda” in the 1950s and 1960s. A few scientists such as Professor Felix Zigel and Yuri Fomin documented UFO incidents, but their results were rarely published and circulated mostly in samizdat form. Ufology began to prosper in the early 1980s when “Commissions on Anomalous Phenomena” were established under the patronage of a few academicians. 

 

Stories of secret military UFO investigations began to spread with glasnost, increasing with the break-up of the USSR. Retired military and intelligence officers were now speaking up and offering documents. One collection, covering a 10-year period of military UFO investigations between 1978 and 1988, was sold by its former director, Colonel Boris Sokolov, to American journalist George Knapp and to ABC News.124 In 1991, the Committee of State Security (KGB) declassified 124 pages of documents of “Cases of Observations of Anomalous Occurrences in the Territory of the USSR, 1982-1990,” covering a total of 17 regions.

KGB document on the Kapustin Yar case.

 

One of the most interesting cases in the KGB file is a multiple-witness CE-I (Close Encounter of the First Kind) at an army missile base in the district of Kapustin Yar, Astrakhan Region, on the night of July 28-29, 1989. The file is surely incomplete, but still offers an interesting glimpse into the maneuverability of UFOs. 

 

The dossier consists of the depositions of seven military witnesses (two junior officers, a corporal and four privates) plus illustrations of the object by the observers, and a brief case summary by an unnamed KGB officer. (Neither the author nor the department are identified, but the document is at the beginning of the KGB file on the Kapustin Yar incident). It states in part: 

 

“Military personnel of the signal center observed UFOs in the period from 22:12 hrs. to 23:55 hrs. on 28 July 1989. According to the witnesses’ reports, they observed three objects simultaneously, at a distance of 3-5 km. [2-3 mi.].” 

 

A nearby base reported the UFO from 23.30 hrs. on July 28 until 1.30 hrs. on July 29. The report continues: 

 

 

“After questioning the witnesses, it was determined that the reported characteristics of the observed UFOs are: disc 4-5 m. [13-17 ft.] diameter, with a half-sphere on top, which is lit brightly. It moved sometimes abruptly, but noiselessly, at times coming down and hovering over ground at an altitude of 20-60 m. [65-200 ft.]. The command of [censored] called for a fighter… but it was not able to see it in detail, because the UFO did not let the aircraft come near it, evading it. Atmospheric conditions were suitable for visual observations.” 

 

The KGB file on the case is obviously incomplete, since there is no data on the jet scramble mission or whether ground or airborne radar detection was also reported. Nevertheless, the hand written descriptions by the seven witnesses from the signal center do provide interesting reading about the flight behavior exhibited by the UFOs.

 

The most detailed communication was submitted by the Officer-on-Duty, Ensign Valery N. Voloshin. A Captain from the telegraph center informed him at 23:20 hrs. that “an unidentified flying object, which he called a flying saucer, was hovering over the military unit for over an hour.” After confirming the sighting with the operation signal officer on duty, Ensign Voloshin and Private Tishchayev climbed the first part of an antenna tower. According to his deposition: 

 

“One could clearly see a powerful blinking signal which resembled a camera flash in the night sky. The object flew over the unit’s logistics yard and moved in the direction of the rocket weapons depot, 300 meters [1,000 ft.] away. It hovered over the depot at a height of 20 meters [65 ft.]. The UFO’s hull shone with a dim green light which looked like phosphorous. It was a disc, 4 or 5 m. [13-17 ft.] in diameter, with a semispherical top. 

 

“While the object was hovering over the depot, a bright beam appeared from the bottom of the disc, where the flash had been before, and made two or three circles, lighting the corner of one of the buildings… The movement of the beam lasted for several seconds, then the beam disappeared and the object, still flashing, moved in the direction of the railway station. After that, I observed the object hovering over the logistics yard, railway station and cement factory. Then it returned to the rocket weapons depot, and hovered over it at an altitude of 60-70 m. [200-240 ft.]. The object was observed from that time on, by the first guard-shift and its commander. At 1:30 hrs., the object flew in the direction of the city of Akhtubinsk and disappeared from sight. The flashes on the object were not periodical, I observed all this for exactly two hours: from 23:30 to 1:30.”

 

Private Tishcahayev essentially confirmed Ensign Voloshin’s testimony. The guard-shift of Corporal Levin and Privates Bashev, Kulik and Litvinov basically tell the same story. They were all alerted by 1st Lt. Klimenko and they all saw up to three UFOs performing fantastic acrobatics in the sky, such as: 

 

“Suddenly, it flew in our direction. It approached fast and increased in size. It then like divided itself in three shining points and took the shape of a triangle. Then it changed course and went on flying in the same sector.” 

 

“After veering, it began to approach us and its speed could be felt physically. (It swelled in front of our eyes). Its flight was strange: no aircraft could fly in this manner. It could instantly stop in the air (and there was an impression that it wobbled slightly up and down); it could float (exactly that: float, because the word ‘fly’ would not be adequate, it was as if the air was holding it, preventing it from falling).

 

At all times that I observed it, it was blinking, blinking without any order and constantly changing colors (red, blue, green, yellow). The point itself was not blinking but something above it.” 

 

“Here is what I observed: there was a flying object, resembling an egg, but flatter. It shone brightly alternating green and red lights. This object gathered a great speed. It accelerated abruptly and also stopped abruptly, all the while doing large jumps up or down. Then appeared a second and then a third object. One object rose to low altitude and stopped. It stayed there in one place and was gone. Later a second object disappeared, and only one stayed. It moved constantly along the horizon. At times, it seemed it landed on the ground, then it rose again and moved.”

 

All the testimonies coincided with the appearance of a jet fighter attempting to intercept the UFOs. The fighter made a first pass above the object apparently without seeing it. Then, according to Lt. Klimenko’s deposition, “the airplane, which could be identified by its noise, approached the object, but the object disengaged so fast, that it seemed the plane stayed in one place.” 

 

It is difficult to make a final evaluation of the Kapustin Yar CE-I, since no information about the scramble mission and possible radar tracking has been released by the KGB. 

 

But the detailed testimony of seven military witnesses, who were familiar with rocket launches and various aircraft because of their post (Kapustin Yar is somewhat equivalent to the White Sands Proving Grounds in New Mexico), appears to confirm the unusual flight characteristics and extraordinary maneuverability displayed by UFOs in many instances. Moreover, as in the SAC flap of 1975 and the Bentwaters affair in England in 1980, the UFOs seemed capable of “demonstrating a clear intent in the weapons storage area,” as described in a 1975 declassified teletype concerning Loring AFB in Maine.

 

One of the official milestones of Soviet/Russian ufology occurred less than a year later, as a result of a radar-visual and jet scramble incident on the Pereslavl-Zalesskiy region, east of Moscow, on the night of March 21, 1990. A statement issued by Colonel-General of Aviation Igor Maltsev, Chief of the Main Staff of the Air Defense Forces, was published in the newspaper Rabochaya Tribuna. Unit commanders compiled “more than 100 visual observations” and passed them on to Gen. Maltsev, who stated: 

 

“I am not a specialist on UFOs and therefore I can only correlate the data and express my own supposition. According to the evidence of these eyewitnesses, the UFO is a disc with a diameter from 100 to 200 meters [320 to 650 feet]. Two pulsating lights were positioned on its sides… Moreover, the object rotated around its axis and performed an ‘S-turn’ flight both in the horizontal and vertical planes. Next, the UFO hovered over the ground and then flew with a speed exceeding that of the modern jet fighter by 2 or 3 times… The objects flew at altitudes ranging from 100 to 7,000 m. [300 to 24,000 ft.]. The movement of the UFOs was not accompanied by sound of any kind, and was distinguished by its startling maneuverability. It seemed the UFOs were completely devoid of inertia. In other words, they had somehow ‘come to terms’ with gravity. At the present time, terrestrial machines could hardly have any such capabilities.”

Op jacht naar een mysterieuze planeet: Wetenschappers speuren aan de rand van ons zonnestelsel naar Planeet X

Astronoom Scott Sheppard (40), verbonden aan het Carnegie Institution of Science in Washington DC, speurt naar verre objecten in ons zonnestelsel. Eén van die objecten is mogelijk de mysterieuze Planeet X. Dat schrijft Nature.

Sterrenkundigen hebben meer dan 2000 exoplaneten rond andere sterren ontdekt, meestal door middel van indirecte methodes die veranderingen in het sterlicht detecteren. Toch weten we relatief weinig over de buitenste regionen van ons eigen zonnestelsel. De technieken die worden gebruikt om exoplaneten te vinden, werken niet in onze eigen stellaire omgeving.

Sheppard zoekt met een aantal collega’s naar werelden die achter Pluto zouden staan. Theorieën over Planeet X bestaan al meer dan 100 jaar. In 2014 stelde Sheppard dat de omloopbaan van extreem verre objecten wordt beïnvloed door een groot hemellichaam. In januari berekenden twee astronomen van Caltech waar deze planeet, die ze ‘Planeet Negen’ noemden, zich mogelijk bevindt.

Scott Sheppard (CIS)

Verschillende wetenschappers zijn nu op jacht naar Planeet Negen of andere superaardes die nog niet ontdekt zijn. “Als zo’n groot object echt blijkt te bestaan, verandert onze perceptie van het zonnestelsel,” zei Sheppard.

Toen Sheppard en zijn collega Chad Trujillo van de Gemini Observatory op Hawaï hun zoektocht begonnen, hoopten ze in de voetsporen te treden van andere legendarische astronomen. In 1846 ontdekte Johann Galle Neptunus, de achtste planeet, en in 1930 vond astronoom Clyde Tombaugh Pluto.

Op basis van de omloopbanen van planetoïden 2012 VP113 en Sedna concludeerden Sheppard en Trujillo dat op zo’n 250 AE (astronomische eenheden) een onbekende superaarde staat. Konstantin Batygin en Mike Brown van Caltech argumenteren dat deze onbekende planeet de verre objecten als een soort herder bijeen drijft. Ze berekenden dat de planeet vijf tot 10 keer zo zwaar moet zijn dan de aarde en op 200 tot 1200 AE staat.

Speld in een hooiberg

Lopende projecten, zoals de Outer Solar System Origins Survey (OSSOS) en de Cassini-missie, kunnen helpen bij de zoektocht. Renu Malhotra van de Universiteit van Arizona in Tucson en haar collega’s hebben objecten in de Kuipergordel onderzocht en suggereren dat de onbekende planeet iedere 17.000 jaar om de zon draait.

“Het is nog erger dan het zoeken naar een speld in een hooiberg,” zei Malhotra. “Het is alsof je zoekt naar een afgebroken speldenknop in een hooiberg.”

Als Planeet X bestaat weten we dat de omloopbanen van Sedna en 2012 VP113 niet vaststonden, maar tot op de dag van vandaag worden beïnvloed. Theoretici zouden dan met nieuwe ideeën moeten komen over de manier waarop de vele werelden in het zonnestelsel met elkaar interacteren.

New Stunning Close-Up Image Of Ceres Shows Mysterious Rectangular Structure (Video)

(Before It's News)

NASA’s Dawn spacecraft has revealed marvelous sights on dwarf planet Ceres during its first year in orbit, including the mysterious bright spots in the Occator Crater.

The Occator Crater, measuring 57 miles (92 kilometers) across and 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) deep, contains the brightest area on Ceres, the dwarf planet that Dawn has explored since early 2015.

What stands out is a strange spot next to the crater. The object in the spot appears to have a rectangular structure with in the middle something that looks like it has been artificially created, like a dome on top of the structure. (See images).

The video below shows the latest amazing images taken from 240 miles (385 kilometers) above the surface of Ceres including the mysterious bright spots in the Occator crater.

Triangle-shaped craft in the sky above Arroyo Grande, California 24-Mar-2016

Check out this interesting video of a triangular-shaped UFO with a flashing lights. This was seen and recorded over Arroyo Grande, a city in San Luis Obispo County, California on 24th March 2016.

Witness report: I live out in the country there’s a large eucalyptus trees all around I’ve seen these trees many times before and never noticed any flashing lights I was on my deck taking my laundry downstairs to do it and noticed two blue flashing lights I got closer and I noticed two red flashing lights in my line of sight there was one blue light at 12 o’clock one at 6 o’clock when I got closer underneath the tree I saw one red light at 12 o’clock and one red light at 6 o’clock The blue lights one on top was flashing the bottom was not both red lights where not flashing. I thought to myself it might be a drone that landed in the treetop or possibly a bird nested with something that was making these lights. I watch these objects for three hours from 7 PM to 10:30 PM March 24, 2016 about 10:26 they disappeared and it’s now 11:19 and still looking out for the lights I will continue As a follower of Mufon I understand and believe in this to be fact and I’m alway on the lookout for such. I attached some videos that I took with my cell phone I apologize for the swearing

Green Aurora Lights Up the Minnesota Night in Skywatcher Photo

Capturing this stunning aurora took only a night's patience for one Minnesota-based astrophotographer.

Photographer Matthew Moses took this image from Brighton Beach along the shore of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota on March 6.

"I knew the aurora display had been active across Europe all day and just had to wait until it got dark enough in Northern Minnesota to get out and try to get photos," he wrote in an email to Space.com. [Poll: What's the Most Amazing Skywatching Sight?]

Auroras are caused by charged particles from the sun (the solar wind) that interact with the Earth's upper atmosphere (at altitudes above 50 miles, or 80 km), causing a glow. The particles are drawn to Earth's polar regions by the planet's magnetic field resulting in aurora borealis, or northern lights, and its southern counterpart the aurora australis, or southern lights.

For Moses, auroras are just something he's grown fond of capturing on camera.

"I just enjoy the views of the night sky," he wrote. "I'm a regular aurora chaser when we have potential for a display."

Welcome to the Age of Autonomous Drone Ships

 

Rolls-Royce

IN BRIEF

Rolls-Royce has released their vision of the future of shipping, which will see the continued evolution of that ongoing trend toward automation and “unmanned autonomy.”

Image credit: Rolls-Royce

SAILING INTO THE FUTURE

On Tuesday, Rolls-Royce—a name that is more famous for luxury cars than maritime contributions—rolled out a slick new video detailing a number of projected innovations in containerized shipping. The company hopes to someday make these innovations a reality, and if they do, it will mean a revolution in the way we ship goods across the seas.

In the film and pictures released by the company, we see a team of impossibly good-looking young coffee-drinking model types going about the business of controlling and monitoring seagoing vessels from the comfort of a shore-based, remote operations center—what Rolls-Royce calls the “oX operator experience concept.”

Check it out in the video below:

The goal for Rolls-Royce is to incrementally evolve their “ship intelligence” program, by developing increased ship-to-shore connectivity, automating as much of ship operations as is safely possible, and eventually (in the longer term) creating a fleet of autonomous ships.

OVERSEAS TRADE IN THE 21ST CENTURY

The research—which was undertaken as a collaboration between Rolls-Royce, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, and the Tampere Unit for Computer-Human Interaction (TAUCHI)—seeks not to replace human operators altogether, but to streamline containerized shipping, reduce unnecessary personnel, and just generally make the process that much better.

“We’re living in an ever-changing world where unmanned and remote-controlled transportation systems will become a common feature of human life,” observes Iiro Lindborg, general manager at Rolls-Royce for Remote and Autonomous Operations.

“They offer unprecedented flexibility and operational efficiency. Our research aims to understand the human factors involved in monitoring and operating ships remotely. It identifies ways crews ashore can use tools to get a realistic feel for what is happening at sea.”

Safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness are the cornerstones of Rolls-Royce’s vision for the future—it will mean circumventing piracy, reducing the costs of training and maintaining crews, and automating containerized shipping from loading and unloading containers at the docks, to drone ship transportation on the open seas, and even guiding vessels into harbor.

But it means another nail in the coffin of that old-time romance of the seas.

IN BRIEF

With all these major partners already in place and ready to lend a hand to make Boom's vision a reality, we could soon be travelling from New York to London in record time.

BOOM

As far as startups go, Boom’s vision is pretty out there. They don’t intend to build a new app or create the newest social media craze—they’re building planes. And not just any ordinary plane—fast ones.

Boom’s plan is to design and build a supersonic passenger plane that can shuttle people from New York to London in just 3 and a half hours, or San Francisco to Tokyo in four and a half hours.

Does it seem like the start up is over reaching? Maybe. At this point, the company is still in the very early stages of achieving this goal, which could arguably be one of the most ambitious design projects for a passenger aircraft...ever. Right now, Boom is still working on designing the first prototype, eying late 2017 to start testing it out.

POSSIBILITY

Yet, in spite of how elaborate and complex the development of this advanced tech might seem to be, it’s worth noting that the team behind Boom might actually have the talent to see this project through. Its team is composed of employees who once worked with NASA, Lockheed, and Boeing. This team has been part of a host of prestigious aircraft projects, such as the autopilot system on the 787, the development of fighter plane engines, and even the flight dynamics on SpaceshipTwo.

In addition, Richard Branson’s Virgin Group just announced their involvement in the project.

In an announcement made by Boom, Virgin has apparently optioned 10 planes—a deal valued at $2 billion. This is on top of the 15 planes optioned by another European carrier that has yet to be announced, adding up to a total of $5 billion optioned planes.

To be clear, Virgin has yet to actually buy the planes. Nevertheless, Virgin Galactic’s space division, The Spaceship Company, has already confirmed their commitment to provide design and manufacturing services, flight tests, and operations.

With Virgin now part of this initiative, the future of Boom’s vision looks brighter than ever.

Best Evidence of UFOs Hovering Over Sao Paolo, Brazil

Packers Quarterback Shares His Close Encounter of the First Kind

Aaron Rodgers was the first-round pick in 2005, but he has another first – a weird one. The Packers quarterback had a mysterious incident known as Close Encounter of the First Kind. Rodgers recalled the strange event recently on the You Made it Weird podcast with comedian Pete Holmes.

The UFO sighting apparently took place in February 2005, the night before the football player was to make an appearance on Cold Pizza, now First Take, of ESPN. The former Cal quarterback went to the East Coast for the interview and stayed with the family of former Cal teammate Steve Levy while he was there.

Rodgers, together with Steve and family, were winding down at dinner. All of a sudden, they heard a strange siren in the distance, so they went outside to check that out. Rodgers described the night as snowy and bright. The next thing that happened was the appearance of a strange object in the sky. The Packers quarterback was fully convinced he spotted a UFO.

He went on to describe the object. According to him, it was a large orange, left-to-right-moving UFO. While it is hard to make out because of the overcast nature of the night, the snow and it was behind the clouds when they saw it; Rodgers was nearly sure it was large in the evening sky, moving from left to right.

The encounter apparently took place at around 12:30 a.m. and Rodgers, Steve, and his brother witnessed it – a total of three witnesses.

Rodgers said that the object remained on their sights for about 30 seconds, but it was like five minutes to them. They were all got shocked, said Rodgers. The group then apparently heard about four fighter jets flying above them, and they knew they were fighter jets because of their sound.

It has been 11 years since it happened, but Rodgers clearly remembered they heard an alarm from 30 miles away, and later realized it was from a nuclear power plant that had its alarm went off.
The Packers quarterback did not want to share his UFO story at first, probably afraid to be ridiculed, but after he had started to tell about it, it was like the moment he clearly remembered, even though it has been more than a decade since it transpired.

Rodgers started talking about his Close Encounter of the First Kind around 14:40 mark in the two-hour podcast.

*MUST SEE* Triangle UFO over Sumter, South Carolina 23-Mar-2016

TR-3B over Sumter?

Check out this amazing video of a possible TR-3B craft flying across the sky above Sumter, the county seat of Sumter County, South Carolina. This was filmed on 23rd March 2016.

Witness report: I was out in my backyard with a fire due to the nice weather. Looking at the stars and satellites. Noticed triangle shaped object, no sound, white constant lights in corners and red strobe in center that pulsated. Tried to figure out what type of aircraft but no sound and no wings, etc. Just dark triangle shape that creeped along. Went and got wife to look so that I wouldn’t be the only one to see it. I looked to be about 3000 feet in altitude and traveled 210 course then 40 minutes later came back reverse course 030. I was ready for the return and got footage with phone and night vision I use for hunting coyotes. I live next to an Air Force Base and use to seeing aircraft. This was different and hope others saw it tonight.

GENERAL NEW Science 

Ancient Egyptian Glyphs Found in Australia Could Rewrite History!

Until receiving a phone call from Nina Angelo (OAM), I knew nothing of neither the struggles involved in protecting the land around Kariong (near Gosford) nor that part of this land was now on the market. When on-site I had seen a lot of tagged trees, and a for sale sign somewhere along a main road, but being unfamiliar with the whole region, nothing registered.

The land for sale contains the Gosford Glyphs, located near Kariong, about 60 km north of Sydney. This site features little known carved ‘ancient Egyptian’ hieroglyphs that were brought to light by various researchers in past decades.

We are convinced that close to this site, and never before seen by non-Aboriginals until discovered very recently, is a rock platform covered with a set of sacred engravings of considerable significance. On this large platform we saw a fish, serpent, massive dolphin or whale, circles and a variety of shapes and symbols.

Without doubt, it is an impressive gallery of ancient Aboriginal rock art deserving of protection. There is one life-sized engraving of Durramullan (son of Creation Spirit Biamie) that is so unique, utterly unexpected, and obviously sacred, decisions had to be made as to how it can be publicly described.

There is nothing remotely like it anywhere in Australia. And that’s it.

That is all we have agreed to reveal. The photographs taken late in the afternoon on this site, and in particular those of Durramullan, should never be reproduced or published through any form of the media but…

Owing to the real possibility this land, irrespective of the credentials for or against the Gosford Glyphs, could be sold then developed, a different approach is compulsory.

It has been our agreed stance to categorise all the sites/relics we are sharing as being ‘found within 2 hours of Sydney’, but that generalised approach doesn’t apply in this location. Those engravings, and other related platforms (one is actually located within this block) are now directly under threat.

The distance between this unique site and that of the Gosford Glyphs is far too close for coincidence or comfort. As to determining the bona fides of this supposed Egyptian site, we have one advantage. According to Dr. Hans-Dieter von Senff, who has produced a draft paper on the site:

These Hieroglyphs are real and have existed for some 4,500 years in Australia. In order to prove that these Proto-Egyptian glyphs are not graffiti, as claimed by various “Experts” and “Egyptologists,” but are the written record left by pre-historic man, written in a coherent and understandable language that makes sense even 4,500 years later. This site is no hoax, but a genuine archaeological discovery; as is proven by the newly discovered second set of glyphs.

The critics who dispute the origin of these engravings numbering over 300 are not sensitive to the bigger picture, and if proven to be engraved by Egyptians, these glyphs form a pivotal and historic epitaph to an Australian history very few suspect.

The engravings were first properly translated by Ray Johnson, claimed to be proto-Egyptian and accepted “as correct by the General Director of Cairo Museum, Dr. Dia’ Abou-Ghazi.” [1]

However, despite the endorsement of the resident expert in Cairo, Australian academics with less impressive credentials are adamant this is an elaborate hoax.

The site includes an engraved Ankh (see image above courtesy of Steve Strong), an essential accompaniment to Thoth, placed alongside an Ibis footprint (Thoth’s recent animal counterpart) and what we believe to be the ‘River of Life’. Two Ibis-men engraved into rock, both in profile with the head of an ibis and body of a human, seem to resonate to the same ancient Egyptian theme.

What really surprised us was that not only are the ibis and Thoth synonymous, but originally Thoth was depicted in ape-form. And it is this more ancient representation that is found twice in Australia, extending the horizons considerably.

A statue found at Gympie, said to act as one of five sentries guarding the controversial seven-stepped pyramid at Gympie, is a depiction of Thoth in his more primal ape-like form and has been argued over and often ridiculed.

The recent discovery of an engraving of Durramullan, again in profile, is less open to debate. The pronounced long forehead and protruding lips is reminiscent of a baboon or one of the larger apes, and so out of context when carved into a continent lacking ape or monkey.

The engraving is ancient, carved by an artist aware of an African animal and Egyptian deity supposedly unknown until the British invasion. In what only adds to the quality and quantity of this cross-cultural partnership, there are two sets of Aboriginal engravings, one containing 31 separate and distinct human characters and the other five figures, of which three have human bodies and what appears to be crocodile heads.

It is for these reasons, and many others, we are in complete agreement with Robert Lawlor, author of the highly regarded Voices of the First Day, when noting the same origin and sequence.

“The Egyptian religious practices, zoomorphic pantheon of gods, concepts of death and rebirth, sorcery, magic and medicine all have their origins in the primal culture of the First Day.” [2]

We see the presence of Egyptians in Australia beginning at around 5,000 years ago, entirely in keeping with a global history that saw, for a variety of reasons too complex to discuss now, the Australian Aboriginal mariners and explorers finally return to Australia at around the same time.

We believe the glyphs and other Egyptian remains found ‘within two hours of Sydney’ bear testimony to a spiritual sabbatical to the place where Egyptian religion and culture began.

That the Gosford Glyphs are so close to the sacred Durramullan site suggests an agreement between the first Australians and people from a distant continent. The Durramullan platform is undeniably special, and the Glyphs are an integral part of this arrangement, unique not only in Australia but the world.

The Egyptian crypt and engravings, dedicated to the memory of the son of a Pharaoh, was constructed close to the Durramullan rock platform and could only be created with the consent of the local Aboriginals.

Of course, if Australian Aboriginals did sail the globe in ancient times this journey is dependent upon ocean-going boats being constructed in Australia. Up at the Top End there are many engravings and paintings of boats which are mistakenly claimed to be inspired by Maccassan boats fishing for trepan.

No such claims can be made for the engraving of an ocean-going boat found in the northern section of the Gosford site. The boat’s design, with a steep prow and stern, has one primary function: to sail through large waves.

It would be a waste of time, effort and resources to construct a boat according to the shape and proportions engraved into the rock, if the vessel sailed in stiller waters. More importantly, this engraving goes a long way towards establishing the claims made by Ramindjeri Elders.

If indeed, as they insist, their ancestors circumnavigated the globe in a figure eight then this sophisticated design would serve that purpose.

That engraving and the Ramindjeri account provide answers to a series of unresolved questions that mainstream academia are unable to appreciate. The presence of Australian Aboriginal people in America was the focus of Issue 35 of the highly respected science magazine Cosmos.

The front cover carried the following caption:

“Did Aborigines discover America? Startling new finds suggest Australia’s first people made it all the way to South America more than 11,000 years ago.” [3]

Of course, America was merely one port-of-call when the First Australians set sail.

“Dr. Raghavendra and researchers from the Indian-government backed Anthropological Survey of India project found unique genetic mutations were shared between modern-day Indians and Aborigines.” [4]

They “identified seven people from central Dravidian and Austro-Asiatic tribes who shared genetic traits only found in Aborigines.” [5]

These facts, along with newly discovered Australian genetic links to a hominid in Siberia referred to as Denosovan, necessitate the same means of transport: a boat.

However, the plan of a boat is insufficient. Also required are both the tools needed to construct such a vessel and navigational skills before sailing to India, America, Asia, Egypt or any other destination. An axe is an essential prerequisite if building a vessel capable of sailing across oceans.

In keeping with all other firsts, it should come as no surprise that the oldest axes yet found are located within Sahul (the greater Australian continent which includes PNG, Tasmania, etc).

The oldest axe was found at Huon Terrace (PNG) and is dated at 40,000 years, followed by an axe found in Jawoyn land (N.T.) claimed to be 35,500 years old. Remaining within Australia, an axe was discovered at Sandy Creek (QLD 32,000 years) and another at Malangangerr (N.T. 23,000 years).

In what confirms the antiquity of Australian axe technology, and by association boats, Angel John Gallard has in his possession a hand-held chopper (the precursor to the axe) which he believes to be no less than 60,000 years old, with the real possibility it is over 100,000 years old. The oldest axe discovered outside Australia was found at Niah Cave (Sarawak) and is thought to be 15,500 years old.

For such an epic journey to succeed, especially if circumnavigating the world in a figure eight, Aboriginal mariners must have navigated by the stars. Once again it all begins here. As announced by a team of scientists from the CSIRO, the oldest astronomical construction was found at Wurdi Youang (Victoria). “The strange stone arrangement” has “two points set in perfect alignment with the setting sun on a midsummer’s day.” [6], [7]

CSIRO experts are of the opinion the “ancient Aboriginal sundial could be upwards of 10,000 years old.” [8]

Nor do these rocks stand in isolation – there are two sets of walls recently found in the Snowy Mountains, the first is aligned east-west, marking out the conjunction of planets and contains no less than 10,000 rocks. The second is at least four times bigger and runs down an extremely steep slope.

Within ‘two hours from Sydney’ is a perfectly aligned five-rocked compass and another construction that is far more enigmatic, which for obvious reasons, we call ‘mini-Stonehenge’. It is made up of 46 stones in the inner circle and 18 rocks forming what we feel are clusters of stars.

The four directions are marked out by arches with a horizontal stone supported by stone pillars. All four constructions, although separated by hundreds of kilometres, serve the same purpose: charting the heavens.

There is one pattern exhibited by these sites that seems to openly contradict an artistic maxim we assumed held fast throughout Australia. It was our belief that traditional Aboriginal art was region specific. Within this area we have found over 25 styles/techniques, many of which are claimed to be created in one tribal estate.

We found evidence of the following Aboriginal artistic styles: Panaramitee; X-Ray; Figurative; Mimi; Lightning Brothers; Wandjina; Papunya; Hand stencils (two types); Representational; Rock engraving; Rock Pecking; Stone Arrangements; Bands across the body; Egyptian symbols; Bird prints; Engraved shield design (found throughout Australia); Profiled spirits; and others we could not identify.

Where does that leave us? Relying on textbooks and academics ‘dazed and confused’… Or there is an alternative route. We are convinced the First Australians are completely separate to the Africans and were the first homo sapien sapiens.

It was from Australia, not Africa, the first migration originated, and it is from Australia that religion, gender equality, astronomy, burials, sailing, music, art, democracy and all the nobler pursuits began.

And it is in Australia, in particular the area ‘within 2 hours from Sydney’, that proof of this global legacy can still be found.
