Many people still doubt the existence of a flying saucers, but I tell you, just wait until they appear in large quantity. Around the entire planet will demonstrate their ability to fly, their appearance and disappearance. In a way that confuses people into the large extent, that no one really understand what is happening. It has been written that the sky will “sign”. This “sign” already seen a lot of people, but by the end of this age will see it every man of the earth and will be surprised”
Traveling west out of Asheville, North Carolina and crossing the border into Jackson County, one can trace the Caney Fork River along toward the little Tuckasegee community, following NC Highway 107 heading out of the nearby campus town of Cullowhee.
There, off a gravel road running between two pastures, is one of the most underrated–and often overlooked–wonders anywhere in the Eastern United States.
Known today as “Judaculla Rock”, the strange stone mound protrudes from the earth just as it did centuries ago, much earlier even than the Cherokee Indians had begun to inhabit the region. According to most estimates by geologists, the stone’s markings date back as much as 3000 years, though on Raliegh-based group a number of years ago supposed that some of the petroglyphs covering the boulder could be twice as old as previous estimates, if not more.
Of all the curious symbols that appear along the stone’s surface, one particular image stands out among the rest, resembling vaguely a hand-like imprint. According to legend, this portion of the stone marks the place where an ancient Cherokee god of the hunt, known as “Tsul’Kalu’,” had leaped from a nearby mountain, and landing within the valley below, had steadied himself against what is now Judaculla Rock. This is, in fact, merely one of several legends regarding Tsul’Kalu’ that still exist, many of which have some fairly remarkable tie-ins with mysterious discoveries of “giants” alleged to have existed in the ancient Americas.
Researchers Might Have Found the Sunken City of Atlantis, But Nobody is Talking About It Anymore
Researchers Might Have Found the Sunken City of Atlantis, But Nobody is Talking About It Anymore
In 2001, a team of explorers who were participating in a survey mission off the western coast of Cuba detected a curious set of stones on their sonar equipment. The bizarre structures were covered under 650 meters of water and they strongly resembled an ancient metropolis. The media soon take over, announcing a possible discovery of the lost city of the Caribbean or even Atlantis.
The government, national museum and national geographic were immediately drawn into picture by this big announcement and they promised to fully investigate the intriguing site revealed by the sonar images. However, this never happened (officially) and after 15 more years the story remains silent. Why the media remained silent about this unusual sunken discovery we can only guess, but the possibility of the officials discovering something that would challenge the foundation of our written history is likely to have happened.
When marine engineer Pauline Zalitzki and her husband Paul Weinzweig first captured the anomaly on their sonar equipment, the first though crossing their minds was of a HUGE discovery. The couple was working on a survey mission together with the Cuban government. They were initially scanning a 2 square kilometers area on the bottom of the sea in order to find wrecks from the Spanish colonial era that could hold treasure, but luck had it that they came across a series of symmetrical stone structures resembling a sunken city.
After investigating the sonar images, Zalitzki noticed that some of the stone blocks possessed a pyramidal shape, while others had a circular design. Intrigued by the discovery, the two returned to the site with Manuel Iturralde, senior researcher of Cuba’s Natural History Museum and furtherly sent a Remotely Operated Vehicle to scan the depths of the sea in detail. Their assumptions of a sunken city were not in vein, as the new images revealed what appeared to be the ruins of sunken city.
“These are extremely peculiar structures, and they have captured our imagination,” said Iturraide, who inspected numerous underwater formations. “But if I had to explain this geologically, I would have a hard time.”
Experts estimated that it would take around 50,000 years for such structures to submerge to the depth at which they were found. “50,000 years ago there wasn’t the architectural capacity in any of the cultures we know of to build complex buildings,” Iturralde said. Another specialist in underwater archaeology from the University of Florida added the following: “It would be cool if they were right, but it would be real advanced for anything we would see in the New World for that time frame. The structures are out of time and out of place.”
Could they have discovered the sunken city of Atlantis, a timeworn metropolis of some unknown civilization, or was this only a natural phenomenon as some archaeologists seemed to believe?
According to the original discoverers, the sunken formation could be “the remnants of a local culture,” once situated on a 100-mile “land bridge” that connected Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula with Cuba. Those claims were supported by the Mayan and native Yucatecos beliefs that speak of an isle of their ancestors that was taken by the sea. However, because the supposed metropolis was located at a considerable depth under the water, researchers who followed the Pleistocene timeline noticed that sea levels dropped by a maximum of 100 meters, making it hard to believe that such a discovery had artificial origins.
“At no point during the Ice Age would it have been above sea level unless, of course, the land on which they stand has sunk. This is the claim for Atlantis – according to Plato’s account, it was destroyed ‘by violent earthquakes and floods.’ However, if we take Plato at his word – as we must if we assume Atlantis to have been a historical place – the violence of its sinking makes it improbable that an entire city could have survived plunging more than 600 m into an abyss,” Fitzpatrick-Matthews wrote.
If these assumptions were correct, and the sunken formation was indeed the result of a natural phenomenon, scientists would still venture from across the world to investigate and document the bizarre site. Suspicious enough, there has been no progress being done towards revealing to the general public what lies beneath the Caribbean Sea. All the promises from the government, national museums, National Geographic, and other parties who offered to investigate came to a dead end.
Could this prove (once again) that suppression of information is real, and that whenever there’s a massive discovery involved the scientific world tends to cover it up for some unknown reason? Is it possible that the ruins of Atlantis or other unknown and advanced civilization had been uncovered but the elites refuse to make this public? Whatever the case, it’s likely that we are being lied to, and there could be numerous finds that challenge the foundation of history itself – all of them suppressed.
A Costa Rican witness at Cartago claimed to have seen and photographed a saucer-shaped UFO near the Irazú Volcano National Park. He submitted a report of his experience to Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). It is filed under Case 74756 of the network’s witness reporting database.
According to the report, the witness was with his girlfriend outside in the park area under good weather condition with sunlight and no clouds when the encounter happened at 11:06 in the morning of February 24, 2016.
The reporting witness notes that the volcano is about 3,400 meters (11,260 feet) above sea level. Their location was close to the biosphere, and so they were above the clouds. The witness points out that they are like on an airplane, watching the sky so clear at 11 in the morning. He adds that part of the sky is light black.
The witness snapped some photos of the landscape and the volcano itself. He saw the clouds like a white sea, but there were some clouds close to the mountains in different forms, so he began to snap photos in that area.
While he was checking the pictures after going home, he noticed a black circle over the mountains. It appears to be a circular saucer with two little antennas – one on the top and another on its tail. He says that the object isn’t in the other pictures, which he took in a burst and only seconds apart of the picture that captured the UFO.
Robert Schroeder believes that we may be on the threshold of understanding the technology of UFOs. While it was once thought that the idea of extra dimensions was strictly the domain of science fiction, that has all changed in the last several years. Physicists now appear to be closing in on a final “THEORY OF EVERYTHING” which suggests that we may live is a Universe comprised of eleven dimensions. These cutting edge theories are now being tested at the large “Hadron Collider Particle Accelerator” in Geneva, Switzerland. One theory being tested by Harvard Scientists is “WARPED GEOMETRY” that Scientists believe may hold the key to “FAST INTERSTELLAR TRAVEL THROUGH OTHER DIMENSIONS.” SPECTROGRAPHIC DATA from actual UFO sightings can confirm whether these craft are using technology that we are now on the precipice of unraveling ourselves. Get the facts about these amazing observations and discoveries that will have a dramatic affect our future in this fascinating LIVE presentation.

Testing the Multiverse: Beyond the Limits of Science? (Op-Ed)

If there’s a multiverse out there can we see it?

Robert Lawrence Kuhn is the creator, writer and host of "Closer to Truth," a public television series and online resource that features the world's leading thinkers exploring humanity's deepest questions (produced and directed by Peter Getzels). This essay is the second in a series of three on the multiverse. The first is available at: "Confronting the Multiverse: What 'Infinite Universes' Would Mean." Kuhn contributed this essay to Space.com's Expert Voices: Op-Ed.
My night musings often drift to deep truths of existence: thoughts on cosmos, consciousness, meaning (if any). I can't help it. That's why I'm entranced by the idea of a multiverse, the theory that there are many universes, multiple universes, innumerable universes, perhaps an infinite number of universes. But the same set of facts, theories and inferences that imply a multiverse also severely limit, and perhaps proscribe completely, humans' capacity to conduct high-grade scientific studies, experimental or observational, to detect a possible multiverse.
So is the search for a multiverse "science?"
It depends on what the word "science" means
I studied science (my doctorate is in brain research) because science discerns how the world works. If there is any way to find agreement among disparate cultures and creeds, there's no way better way than through science.
Some scientists say that the scientific method is the only way of knowing. If science cannot know something, these scientists say, then that something is either not knowable or not worth knowing.
But are there truths, real truths, beyond science? What are the limits of science? How far can it go? Are there philosophical boundaries beyond which science cannot travel?
"I don't see them," said Frank Wilczek, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics for deciphering the inner structure of protons and neutrons (they're almost all empty space). "The application of science can give insight into any question that makes sense. It may not give an answer. It may advise that the question is ill-posed, or it may provide only partial insight — but I don't think anything should be ruled out as inaccessible to science."
A multiverse, as we shall see, is a test case.
The essence of science — what science is actually doing — may seem obvious to scientists, but not to philosophers of science.
Bas van Fraassen is just such a philosopher of science, at San Francisco State University, and a professor of philosophy emeritus at Princeton University in New Jersey, and he is a strict empiricist, meaning that he believes knowledge qua knowledge must come directly from observation and data. "When I think about science," he told me, "I think of it as a large human enterprise that has certain criteria of success, and, as an empiricist, I say that all such success relates to what's observable. When science is successful, it gives the best possible descriptions and explanations of what we find in the observable realm." (All quotes are from "Closer to Truth.") [5 Reasons We May Live in a Multiverse ]
Van Fraassen said he is not a "scientific realist," meaning that he does not accept that the scientific criterion of success is "truth in every respect" or "truth, period." He said he rejects the prevailing notion that science can penetrate deeper than "just what's observable" and "postulate all things needed in order to explain observable things."
He has argued that we must decouple what we observe from whatever underlying reality may be generating those observations. In other words, there are (at least) two levels of reality: One consists of the rules and regularities of the physical world, which science can access and measure. But the other level, the ultimate source of those rules and regulations, science can never even access, much less come to know.
"To say you accept a scientific theory," van Fraassen said, "[only] means that you believe that it is empirically adequate with respect to the observable phenomena, what we find via inspection and measurement. I do not see the scientist as Columbus discovering America, but rather as constructing models and theories in order to represent observable phenomena."
Strict empiricism offers a more modest mission for science. So does its philosophical cousin, anti-scientific realism, which rejects, for various reasons, the common-sense idea that what we perceive is what really exists (for example, doubting that reality is mind-independent). Both strict empiricism and anti-scientific realism see an unbridgeable gap between deep reality and human cognition, because, like in a relay race, the "baton of information" is passed from one medium to another: from the actual source in deep reality, to electromagnetic radiation, to man-made instruments of observation, to biological sense organs, to neural processing in brains.
At each stage of that "information relay," argues the strict empiricist (and the anti-scientific realist), information is lost. There are several gaps, which combine to constitute an overall, unbridgeable gap.
As a strict empiricist, van Fraassen affirms only that which human beings can know for sure. He allows only observations and models into his realm of certitude, but not the underlying realities that generate them. "The scientific realist must have theories referring to real things," he stressed, "but to an empiricist, that is not a scientific explanation — it's a metaphysical explanation — and not the thing to do."
Princeton physics professor J. Richard Gott described the boundaries of science in terms of what science can and cannot know. "We've learned a great deal about the universe — age, structure, initial conditions, how it started, how it's developing. But a theologian might say, 'Well, have you really answered the question of why is there a universe, as opposed to no universe at all?' It's easy to imagine no universe at all. Science is not prepared to answer this question, at least not at the present time," he said.
Is there anything in the middle, so to speak, between what science can and cannot know?
The multiverse, stretching the limits of understanding
In answering that question, Gott pointed to a multiverse. "Scientists now speak of a multiverse ," he said, "many different universes beyond our observational capability. But we talk seriously about them."
A multiverse, awesome if real, is indeed a test case for exploring the limits and boundaries of science.
South African cosmologist George Ellis sharply asserted that view in the journal Nature. Ellis, who is well known for challenging the multiverse, argued that "attempts to exempt speculative theories of the universe from experimental verification undermine science.
"Because we cannot see them," Ellis told me, "we can't prove anything about them," emphasizing skeptical commentary similar to what he shared in my essay on the multiverse.
"This is a very powerful argument," Linde noted in response. "You cannot prove anything about things that you cannot see. Fortunately, this argument is wrong. Here's what's often missed in the discussion of the multiverse: If we have many experimental or observational facts that can be explained only in the context of one particular theory (e.g., multiverse), these facts constitute experimental or observational evidence in favor of this theory." [Note: "…in favor of this theory" is precise language; it does not mean "…evidence that proves this theory."]
"Thus, anybody disliking the theory of the multiverse," Linde continued, "should be asked to present an explanation of these observational or experimental facts in any other context, not involving a multiverse. Many people tried. Nobody succeeded. That's why we take it so seriously."
To make sure I understood what he meant by "experimental or observational facts that can be explained only in the context of one particular theory," or in other words, "that which cannot be explained otherwise," Linde invoked the anthropic principle. This oddly profound principle constrains theories of physics and cosmology by human existence, because humans must obviously exist if they are to observe the facts that they try to explain. This seemingly trivial, tautological or even nonsensical claim is, depending on one's views, either a surprisingly powerful predictive and explanatory tool or an embarrassing abandonment of the scientific method and an excuse for failure.
Two Nobel Laureates in physics have offered me their diametrically opposing views on the anthropic principle.
Steven Weinberg at the University of Texas at Austin, one of the pioneers of this new way of thinking about science, said that assuming "different versions of the multiverse idea, the anthropic principle is just common sense." The reason, he said, was that "if there is a vast number of universes — in which the various constants [of physics], including the energy in empty space [known as the cosmological constant], vary from universe to universe — it is natural that we will be only in the kind of universe that could support life." In other words, if the cosmological constant, which is a kind of repulsive gravity, would be greater than a certain maximum amount, then its anti-gravity force would resist and overpower gravity, preventing gravity from forming agglomerated bodies (galaxies, stars, planets).
On the other hand, when asked his view of the anthropic principle, physicist David Gross at the University of California at Santa Barbara said, "I hate it."
"Anthropic considerations acquire real physical meaning only if one has many potential options," Linde explained to me, "but only if some of them are compatible with the existence of observers.
"The multiverse provides these options", he asserted. "The most famous problem addressed by anthropic considerations is the size of the cosmological constant." In other words, in studying the energy density of empty space, the vacuum, why is the cosmological constant so astonishingly small but still not zero?
Linde said there are multiple problems in physics and cosmology, and only a multiverse can solve them, thus validating the multiverse as "science," even if justified in this new kind of way.
"I couldn't make any sense of this 'anthropic principle'," Linde explained, "until I proposed a model of an inflationary universe consisting of many different parts with different properties [different laws of physics]. The same picture appears in a much more convincing way in [cosmic] eternal chaotic inflation and finally became even more convincing after the discovery of 10^500 vacua in string theory." (See Linde’s "A brief history of the multiverse.")
This theoretical finding was that there are (very roughly) 10^500 different, theoretically feasible configurations or ways that string theory can generate different, theoretically feasible laws of physics (based on all the possible stable, geometrical or topological configurations of an infinitesimally small, higher-dimensional "manifold" that string theory proposes as the foundation of space and time and particles and forces). Each one of this vast number of specific configurations or ways characterizes its own kind of universe — and perhaps doing so in reality innumerable times to define innumerable universes — all of which taken together compose the multiverse.
Moreover, Linde claimed, this also means that the same facts that can serve as experimental evidence in favor of a multiverse can simultaneously serve as experimental evidence in favor of string theory. Thus, he concluded, both string theory and the multiverse become properly classifiable as "science."
Linde admitted that this is an unusual way to think about science, and he cited Weinberg: "Now we may be at a new turning point," Weinberg said famously, "a radical change in what we accept as a legitimate foundation for a physical theory."
"New theory is born in pain," Linde reflected, "but so far, the parents are quite happy, or at least cautiously optimistic," and he again quoted Weinberg.
"I found a report of a discussion at a conference at Stanford," Weinberg said, "at which [U.K. Astronomer Royal] Martin Rees said that he was sufficiently confident about the multiverse to bet his dog's life on it, while Linde said he would bet his own life. As for me, I have just enough confidence about the multiverse to bet the lives of both Linde and Rees' dog."
The failures of multiverse theory
With Linde's permission, I circulated his remarks to others quoted in my "Confronting the Multiverse" essay, and I received everyone's permission to post the remarks that follow.
In response, Ellis stated that Linde's argument requires three parts: experimental or observational facts to be explained, a viable theory that can explain these facts and no other theory that can work as well. And Ellis claimed that for the multiverse, "there are problems with each part."
"First, the anthropic puzzle" — i.e., how human observation seems to select or "determine" those laws of physics that are consistent with human existence — "is not a problem in physics," Ellis said. "It's a philosophical issue. By that I mean that there is no requirement of a new theory because of some experiment that contradicts the standard model of particle physics plus the standard model of cosmology. Rather, the aim is to explain values of fundamental constants involved in those theories. But that is always in terms of new theories involving other constants, which then in turn need to be explained in terms of further theories with further constants, and so on. It is quite unclear how many constants there are to be explained, when to stop the chain of explanation, or indeed what constitutes a valid 'explanation' — for this is a philosophical (or perhaps psychological?) aim."
Second, Ellis challenged each of what he labeled "the three pillars" of Linde's argument for multiple universes: (a) cosmic eternal chaotic inflation plus (b) the string-theory mechanism that generates vast numbers of different kinds of universes to give (c) an anthropic explanation of the value of the cosmological constant. Ellis claimed that competing theories and observational evidence disfavor Linde's theory. In any case, Ellis said, "using the multiverse to anthropically explain all the constants of physics does not work, because so many constants will have wrong values." In other words, according to Ellis, anthropic reasoning (i.e., where human existence must constrain physical conditions) in the context of a putative multiverse cannot predict the actual values of physical constants.
In summary, Ellis said arguments for the multiverse fail "because their requirements are not fulfilled." Pointedly, Ellis asserted that Linde’s multiverse-generating theories of cosmic inflation are ruled out or disfavored by recent observational data.
In response, Linde denied that “eternal chaotic inflation” is ruled out or disfavored by recent observational data, stressing differences among eternal chaotic inflation, chaotic inflation in general and its simplest version (all of which Linde discovered, or invented, depending on one's views). Only inflation's simplest version, he said, is ruled out by recent observations.
"The main idea is that in a broad class of theories, inflation can start even if initial conditions in the universe were chaotic, which explains the name 'chaotic inflation,'" he said. "High-temperature phase transitions, which were the basis of the first versions of inflationary theory, are no longer required. Almost all inflationary models studied now belong to this general class."
Linde stressed that just because he rejects Ellis' arguments against the multiverse does not mean that he thinks the theory of the multiverse is complete.
After reviewing the contrasting positions, Rees wondered whether it is "inconsistent" that Ellis gave "'scientific' arguments against Linde's specific model (which indeed are proper topics for debate) while asserting that none of this is real science."
Personally, in my epistemology of a multiverse, as it were, I am influenced by Weinberg's simple statement: "I quite agree with Linde" — which is consistent with Weinberg's own position permitting anthropic arguments to address scientific problems.
Challenging current belief
Although in questioning the multiverse, Ellis is in the minority — certainly among contemporary cosmologists — I admire his challenge to current belief. After all, that is what MIT physicist Alan Guth (the originator of cosmic inflation theory), Linde and others did in postulating cosmic inflation theory and multiple universes in the first place. Ellis has made people think hard about the assumptions underlying the purported reality of multiple universes, which, if real, would radically expand the scope of existence.
"First, if a multiverse is one of many predictions of a theory, and if its other predictions can be directly tested," he said, "then (assuming it survives those tests) we increase our confidence that there is a multiverse. Secondly, we can use statistical analysis related to anthropic selection, as Linde points out, to make testable predictions. So, for example, the multiverse explanation of the weakness of [repulsive] dark energy predicts that as we learn more about the formation of galaxies, the measured value of dark energy should come closer and closer to the maximum permitted that is consistent with galaxy formation. If some other explanation is correct, then there is no such constraint."
In other words, Davies made a provocative point about the fit between the actual, measured value of (repulsive) dark energy and the theoretical maximum value that such (repulsive) dark energy could take, but still allow for human existence by not overpowering, and thus not nullifying, the gravitational attraction needed to form galaxies, stars and planets. The tighter this fit, Davies said, the greater the consistency with a multiverse.
But, dare I say it, the same would also be true for consistency with a Design/Designer, would it not? ("The Multiverse and God" will be the topic of my third and final essay on the multiverse.)
Yet Davies challenged the multiverse by combining the implications of a multiverse with the so-called "Simulation Argument." This draws on two premises or assumptions, that (i) alien civilizations exist throughout the universe and (ii) continue to increase their computational capabilities. Given those two premises, then randomly chosen observers, like human beings, would most likely find themselves living in a simulated or "fake" universe (unless there are cosmic or technological "showstoppers" preventing whole-world simulations).
Davies argued that in a multiverse, "'fake universes' would be even more likely to vastly outnumber real universes [than in our one universe without a multiverse], so that if we live in multiverse, we would be overwhelmingly more likely to be living in a simulated reality. But that would imply that the laws of physics in our universe are also overwhelmingly more likely to be simulations and therefore cannot be used to conclude that there is a multiverse! So there is an inconsistency at the heart of the multiverse concept."
Let's unpack the argument and lay it out. To Davies, "If you take seriously the possibility of a multiverse of all possible universes, including all possible variations, then there would have to be at least some of those universes where sentient civilizations would advance to the point where they would have sufficient computing power to simulate entire fake worlds (like in the 'Matrix' movies). Simulated universes are much cheaper to make than the real thing. So once you've got civilizations throughout the multiverse that can simulate universes," Davies stressed, then this is what they will do, and do increasingly.
As a result, "the number of fake universes in a multiverse will proliferate greatly and very soon outnumber real ones." [Is Our Universe a Fake?]
Fake universes, Davies said, "undermine all the arguments for a multiverse," because arguments for a multiverse are based on the physics of this universe. "But if ours is a simulated universe, then our laws are simulated, too, which means that the whole of physics is a fake." And if the whole of physics is a fake, Davies said, then the whole argument for a multiverse collapses. The reason is that while the multiverse argument proceeds from the physics humans have discovered in this universe, people cannot use this argument because it then leads, surprisingly, to the conclusion that this is a fake universe, with fake physics.
That, Davies claimed, is an internal contradiction of the multiverse theory. "You're hoist by your own petard if you want to claim that there is a true multiverse with all possibilities, because it leads you to accept the fact that it's just full of fakes," he stressed, which then undermines the reality of physics, which in turn undermines standard arguments for the multiverse.
The best way to avoid this circular contradiction, in my opinion, is by asserting that simulating whole worlds, especially the simulation of consciousness, is impossible — even impossible in principle, even with an infinite number of universes, a claim that causes its own set of problems. [The Singularity, Virtual Immortality and the Trouble with Consciousness]
Another way might be to suppose that any simulated laws of physics in simulated universes would likely be based on "real" laws of physics in the simulators' "real" universe. (But for this counterargument to work, there would need be no exceptions, none whatsoever — which in such a vast universe, I think, is a bar too high.)
At first, the Simulation Argument (the possibility that this universe is a fake) seems to have nothing to do with arguments for the multiverse, yet each, curiously, threatens the other. Just as Davies showed how simulations would undermine the multiverse, a multiverse of infinite numbers of universes would play havoc with the Simulation Argument of this universe. (The reason is that infinities mess up measurements and statistics, because when all things occur an infinite number of times, the relative occurrences of all things acquire a kind of strange equality.)
In support of a multiverse, philosopher John Leslie posed a novel argument. "If there is any 'Creative Factor' responsible for there being a universe at all, something rather than nothing, anything not a blank," he argued, "then one could well expect that this cosmos-creating Creative Factor would operate more than once." That Creative Factor would be a principle, force, God — it doesn't matter what, he said. "Why on Earth would it have operated once only? Wouldn't it make more sense to suppose that it had operated countless times? If so, then there would be grounds for believing in a multiverse that didn't depend on accepting that the laws of physics we observe are genuine instead of 'fakes.'"
Human beings seem hardwired to want to know things, all things; people want to push knowledge to its ultimate limits, plumb the depths of ultimate reality. Science or metaphysics? Science and metaphysics? Which is the multiverse?

Cataclysm Hunters: The Search for Monster Black-Hole Collisions
Cataclysm Hunters: The Search for Monster Black-Hole Collisions
By Sarah Lewin, Staff Writer
Supermassive black holes at the heart of merging galaxies will circle closer and closer until they come together, releasing a titanic wave of energy. The process may help explain how black holes get so huge to begin with.

Julie Comerford has built a career searching for galaxies that contain not one, but two supermassive black holes — light-devouring monsters that have masses millions or billions of times that of the sun. So far, the count is up to 12.
"The mergers of two supermassive black holes is second only to the Big Bang as the most energetic phenomena in the universe," Comerford, an astrophysicist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, told Space.com. Yet that titanic, violent dance — essential to galaxy growth and evolution — has not been spotted very often.
Each galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its core. When two galaxies merge, the two central black holes circle faster and faster, coming closer and closer until they merge into one as well. Once light crosses the threshold of a black hole, it can never escape, but galactic sleuths like Comerford have spent years looking for other kinds of evidence revealing those monster black holes headed for a cataclysmic collision. [The Strangest Black Holes in the Universe]
Relatively small "stellar mass" black holes form when a huge star dies in a supernova explosion and its core collapses. A black hole can grow as more mass falls into it, but nobody can fully explain how the supermassive ones lurking at the cores of galaxies are able to get so enormous — the one at the center of the Milky Way has a mass 4 million times that of the sun, and it's comparatively small. The process of two galaxies merging could explain this extraordinary growth.
"One theory is that maybe a lot of the black hole mass growth actually occurs during galaxy mergers, because that's when all this gas is being slammed together and funneled towards a black hole — so there's a lot of fuel available for the black hole to eat and build up its mass," Comerford said.
Solving the growth mystery promises to reveal insight into how galaxies, and the black holes at their hearts, grow and change over time. Plus, it should help hone scientists' newly proven powers of detecting gravitational waves.
Searching for light
The ultralarge black holes at the centers of galaxies don't let any light slip out, but pairs of structures so massive leave their mark on the environment around them in other ways. For one thing, they're always at the hearts of merging galaxies.
"The Milky Way just has one central big sphere of stars, so it would not be a good candidate for one of these potential double black holes," Comerford said. "We're looking for things that look different from the usual galaxies that you see images of, like a normal spiral galaxy or elliptical galaxy — that's not what we want. [We want] the ones that look like they're two merging spheres of stars."
That merging process also puts a lot of extra material in the path of each of the black holes, which can gain whirling "accretion disks" of dust around them that glow brightly andemit jets of energy. Supermassive black holes with that kind of ultrabright beacon are called quasars, and they're far from invisible — in fact, they often outshine the galaxies that surround them.
This artist's concept illustrates a quasar, or feeding black hole, similar to APM 08279+5255, where astronomers discovered huge amounts of water vapor. Gas and dust likely form a torus around the central black hole, with clouds of charged gas above and below.

Comerford first started searching for these double-black-hole galaxies when she was in graduate school. Her group first recognized the black holes by the unusual spectrum of light their host galaxies emit, as measured in big survey studies like the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.
Galaxies with a quasar at their center — a supermassive black hole taking in large quantities of material — emit a narrow band of radiation that's very bright. But the galaxies Comerford was looking for were more complex: Instead of a nice, tall peak indicating the intense glow emitted by the quasar, she saw two peaks — one slightly redder and one slightly bluer.
The two peaks showed that there were two significant light sources in the system: one moving toward Earth and one moving away. By following up with an X-ray or radio telescope, or with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope looking in visible light, she could verify that those two light sources were embedded in a merging set of galaxies.

Comerford's systematic search could find supermassive black holes that are around 3,000 light-years away from each other — that's about 1/8 the distance from Earth's solar system to the center of the galaxy — and that are orbiting one another at about 500,000 mph (800,000 kph). Looking straight at such systems, it might be impossible to distinguish the two quasars from each other because they'd be too close together, so the wavelengths of light emitted provided a crucial first clue.
More recently, because of the increasing amount of Hubble galaxy imagery available, Comerford has started relying on visual images to pinpoint the supermassive black hole pairs. First, she finds quasar activity in telescope data, and then she checks with a Hubble image of the galaxy to see if it looks like it might be two merging galaxies, with two tight cores of stars that might each surround a supermassive black hole. Finally, she follows up with higher-resolution infrared or radio telescopes to try and distinguish whether there are two separate quasars there.

"There may be one [supermassive black hole pair] in every something like a thousand to a million galaxies," Sarah Spolaor, a researcher at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in New Mexico, told Space.com. "The chance of just finding one by chance is pretty low, but if you have a sky catalog of thousands upon thousands of galaxies, then you're much more likely to see that kind of weird-looking one that you think, 'What is that?' — and it's maybe a binary black hole."
The growing mystery
Researchers know that supermassive black holes are intimately tied to the galaxies surrounding them. There's one at every galaxy's heart, and the galaxy's size is reflected in the size of the black hole. Even early galaxies, born close to the beginning of the universe, show that correlation. Finding black hole mergers can help solve the mystery of how those black holes got so big, so early in the universe's history. Plus, even the existence of quasars at all, which can only form once black holes get massive enough, raises questions.
"Why are we doing this stamp collecting?" Comerford said. "There's scientific questions that we want to answer, and that is one of the big ones: how do black holes get enough gas in the first place to become a quasar?"
Researchers know that black holes at the center of merging galaxies ultimately form into one larger supermassive black hole, but it's unclear whether that's the whole picture.
"Galaxy mergers are definitely an effective way to get supermassive black holes to grow," said Scott Barrows, an astronomer also at the University of Colorado, Boulder. "But how important is this process relative to other processes that could just be happening in a galaxy that's not interacting?" Barrows said. "There's not a good consensus on how this works as of yet," he told Space.com.
Barrows' own research searches for supermassive black hole systems where only one black hole has bloomed into a quasar — an indicator, he said, that the black holes are uneven; one is growing faster than the other and taking in more material kicked up in the merger. That uneven matchup could help scientists understand exactly what role the events play in growing black holes and the galaxies surrounding them. [Gallery: 65 All-Time Great Galaxy Hits]
Besides solving that mystery, a better understanding of the epic systems should reveal more about the overall universe's evolution, researchers say.
"Supermassive black holes are thought to play a huge role in how the universe evolves," Spolaor said. "They are the most massive compact single objects in the universe."
Black holes are so bizarre, they sound unreal. Yet astronomers havefound good evidence they exist. Test your knowledge of these wacky wonders.
When two black holes finally merge, they set off an intense clap of energy that should be released as gravitational waves — ripples in space-time that are caused by superenergetic events.
Gravitational waves were measured for the first time in February, and were traced back to the merging of two small black holes, each of which contained about 30 times the mass of the sun. Supermassive black hole mergers should give off a much more powerful signal.
"Once you have a population of these close double black holes, you can make predictions about how long they'll take to merge, or what the gravitational wave signatures they produce will be like," Comerford said. "That's the other angle. [On] the one side, we're learning about how black holes grow and build up their mass, and then the other angle is these are the black hole pairs that we know of that are the closest to merging and creating gravitational waves." [Stirred, Not Shaken - How Colliding Black Holes Make Waves (Video)]

Spolaor uses supersensitive radio telescopes to hunt for double black hole systems as part of her research into pulsar timing, a process that measures tiny changes to certain celestial bodies to detect gravitational waves moving through space. Knowing where double black hole systems are, and physical properties about the circling giants, can help her narrow down what types of gravitational wave signals to search for from the systems.
Scientists have already found one invisible interaction with gravitational waves, and one day, gravitational wave measurements will point out many of the universe's wildest interactions. But for now, it's up to researchers to interpret what light makes it over from those powerful, chaotic systems.
"When something like Hubble is observing one of my galaxies, I like to look up where the orbit of Hubble is," Comerford said. "I like to find out when it's passing overhead, where I am. So I go outside, and I look at Hubble while it's looking at one of my galaxies — that's how I commune with it. But then, I have to be patient and wait until at least the next day to see what the data actually looks like."

UFOs and Nukes Film to be Released: Robert Hastings’ Documentary Available at Vimeo On Demand
The reality of UFO incursions at American nuclear weapons facilities has been convincingly established. Hundreds of U.S. military veterans now openly discuss these ominous incidents and thousands of declassified government documents affirm their assertions.
Over the past four decades, I have interviewed more than 150 of those veterans regarding their involvement in one case or another. On September 27, 2010, CNN live-streamed my UFOs and Nukes press conference in Washington D.C. during which former U.S. Air Force missileers described occasions when several ICBMs mysteriously malfunctioned moments after a disc-shaped craft was observed hovering near their underground launch silos.
Robert Hastings The UFO Chronicles 4-2-16
My documentary film, UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed, will be available at Vimeo On Demand beginning on April 10, 2016. Unlike many of the UFO “documentaries” found on network television nowadays, which contain far more speculation than fact, this film rigorously examines the officially-still-hidden history of UFO activity at nuclear weapons laboratories, test areas, storage depots and missile sites—using authenticated files and the testimony of vetted military eyewitnesses.
The evidence presented makes clear that humans’ deadliest weapons have been—ever since their development and use during World War II—under intense scrutiny by still-unidentified observers. Significantly, documents smuggled out of Russia in the 1990s confirm that Soviet nukes were also the focus of UFO interest during the Cold War era. More recently, U.S. Air Force personnel have alleged a UFO involvement in one large-scale missile-disruption incident in October 2010. In short, the situation is still unfolding.
The purpose of this film is public education. Someone possessing tremendously advanced technology has monitored and even tampered with American and Russian nuclear weapons for decades. My view is that UFOs are piloted by beings from another world. Regardless, these stunning, nearly unbelievable developments must not be kept secret by a handful of government and military officials. We all have a right to know the facts.

TRIANGULAR UFO spotted over Myanmar temples ! March 2016
TRIANGULAR UFO spotted over Myanmar temples ! March 2016
March 2016 - Myanmar, Burma. People filmed mysterious triangular UFO with glowing lights hovering over temple during several minutes.
Watch the VIDEO HERE !
Black triangles are a class of unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, with certain common features which have reportedly been observed during the 20th and 21st centuries. Media reports of black triangles originally came from the United States and United Kingdom.
Reports generally describe this class of UFOs as large, silent, black triangular objects hovering or slowly cruising at low altitudes over cities and highways. Sightings usually take place at night. These objects are often described as having pulsing colored lights that appear at each corner of the triangle.
Black triangle UFOs have been reported to be visible to radar, as was the case with the famous Belgian UFO wave. During these incidents, two Belgian F-16s attempted to intercept the objects (getting a successful missile lock at two occasions) only to be outmaneuvered; a key conclusion of the Project Condign report was that no attempt should be made on the part of civilian or RAF Air Defence aircraft to outmaneuver these objects except to place them astern to mitigate the risk of collision.
The reports state : "Occasionally and perhaps exceptionally, it seems that a field with, as yet, undetermined characteristics, can exist between certain charged buoyant objects in loose formation, such that, depending on the viewing aspect, the intervening space between them forms an area (viewed as a shape, often triangular) from which the reflection of light does not occur. This is a key finding in the attribution of what have frequently been reported as black 'craft,' often triangular and even up to hundreds of feet in length." These plasma formations also have the effect through "magnetic, electric or electromagnetic (or even unknown field), appears to emanate from some of the buoyant charged masses. Local fields of this type have been medically proven to cause responses in the temporal lobes of the human brain.
Recently un-redacted sections of the report state that Russian, Former Soviet Republics, and Chinese authorities have made a co-ordinated effort to understand the UAP topic and that Russian investigators have measured (or at least detected) 'fields' which are reported to have caused human effects when they are located close to the phenomena. According to the Ministry of Defence researchers, Russian scientists have connected their UAP work with plasmas and the wider potential use of plasmas and may have done "considerably more work (than is evident from open sources)" on military applications, for example using UAP-type radiated fields to affect humans, and the possibility of producing and launching plasmas as decoys.

The Hessdalen Mystery :
The Hessdalen lights are unexplained nocturnal lights observed in a 7.5-mile-long (12 km) Hessdalen valley in rural central Norway. The Hessdalen lights are of unknown origin. They appear at night, and seem to float through and above the valley. They are usually bright white, yellow, or red and can appear above and below the horizon. The duration of the phenomenon may be from a few seconds to longer than an hour. Sometimes the lights move with enormous speed, and at other times, seem to slowly sway back and forth. On yet other occasions, they hover mid‑air. Some hypothesise that the light is ionised iron dust.
Unusual lights have been reported in the region since at least the 1930s. Especially high activity occurred between December 1981 and mid-1984, at which point the lights were being observed 15–20 times per week, which attracted many overnight tourists. As of 2010, the lights were observed 10–20 times per year.
Since 1983, there has been ongoing scientific research often nicknamed "Project Hessdalen", initiated by UFO-Norge and UFO-Sweden. The project was active as field investigations during 1983–1985. A group of students, engineers, and journalists collaborated as "The Triangle Project" in 1997–1998 and recorded the lights in a pyramid shape that bounced up and down. In 1998, the Hessdalen Automatic Measurement Station (Hessdalen AMS) was built in the valley and registers and records the appearance of lights.
Later, the EMBLA programme was initiated. It brings together established scientists and students into researching these lights. Leading research institutions are Østfold University College (Norway) and the Italian National Research Council.
Despite the ongoing research, there is no convincing explanation for the phenomenon. However, there are numerous working hypotheses.
1) One possible explanation attributes the phenomenon to an incompletely understood combustion involving hydrogen, oxygen, and sodium, and occurs in Hessdalen because of the large deposits of scandium there.
2) One recent hypothesis suggests that the lights are formed by a cluster of macroscopic Coulomb crystals in a plasma produced by the ionization of air and dust by alpha particles during radon decay in the dusty atmosphere. Several physical properties including oscillation, geometric structure, and light spectrum, observed in the Hessdalen lights (HL) can be explained through a dust plasma model. Radon decay produces alpha particles (responsible by helium emissions in HL spectrum) and radioactive elements such as polonium. In 2004, Teodorani showed an occurrence where a higher level of radioactivity on rocks was detected near the area where a large light ball was reported. Computer simulations show that dust immersed in ionized gas can organize itself into double helixes like some of occurrences of the Hessdalen lights; dusty plasmas may also form in this structure.
3) Another hypothesis explains HL as a product of piezoelectricity generated under specific rock strains (Takaki and Ikeya, 1998) because many crystal rocks include quartz grains which produce an intense charge density. In a 2011 paper, based on the dusty plasma theory of HL, it is suggested that piezoelectricity of quartz cannot explain a peculiar property assumed by the HL phenomenon – the presence of geometrical structures in its center. Paiva and Taft have shown a mechanism of light ball cluster formation in Hessdalen lights by the nonlinear interaction of ion-acoustic and dusty-acoustic waves with low frequency geoelectromagnetic waves in dusty plasmas. The theoretical model shows that the velocity of ejected light balls by HL cluster is about 10,000 m s−1 in a good agreement with the observed velocity of some ejected light balls, which is estimated as 20,000 m s−1. Why is the ejected ball always green-colored? Ejection of small green light ball from HL is due to radiation pressure produced by the interaction between very low frequency electromagnetic waves (VLF) and atmospheric ions (present in the central white-colored ball) through ion-acoustic waves (IAW). Paiva and Taft presented a model for resolving the apparently contradictory spectrum observed in HL phenomenon. Thus, its nearly flat spectrum on the top with steep sides is due to the effect of optical thickness on the bremsstrahlung spectrum. At low frequencies self-absorption modifies the spectrum to follow the Rayleigh–Jeans part of the blackbody curve. This spectrum is typical of dense ionized gas. Additionally, the spectrum produced in the thermal bremsstrahlung process is flat up to a cutoff frequency, ν, and falls off exponentially at higher frequencies. This sequence of events forms the typical spectrum of HL phenomenon when the atmosphere is clear, with no fog. According to the model, spatial color distribution of luminous balls commonly observed in HL phenomenon are produced by electrons accelerated by electric fields during rapid fracture of piezoelectric rocks under the ground.
There have been some sightings positively identified as misperceptions of astronomical bodies, aircraft, car headlights, and mirages.
Two researchers have proposed beaming controlled laser emissions in order to create an invisibility cloak around Earth, in order to help disguise the faint dimming of light produced by our planet every time it passes in front of the sun, hiding from prying ‘Alien’ eyes.
Is it possible that an ‘invisibility cloak of lasers’ could hide Earth, preventing an Alien invasion? According to experts, a new system could help protect our planet from hostile Aliens that might try and destroy it.
Two astronomers have proposed that beaming controlled laser emissions could literally create an invisibility cloak around Earth, in order to help disguise the faint dimming of light produced by our planet every time it passes in front of the sun.
According to experts, Intelligent Alien civilizations might be looking for Earth the same way we search for Alien Worlds: by looking for dips in our Suns light. This is why, they propose beaming a laser into the sky, in order to cloak this change in light. This ‘new’ system could effectively hide our planet from extraterrestrial telescopes, pointed at our planet. The method used in order to search for Alien worlds is based on light anomalies created by planets as they pass in front of their host star. Using this technique, NASA Kepler space telescope has discovered over 1000 new planets among them several which are believed to be extremely similar to Earth, located in the so-called habitable zone of their host star where temperatures are ideal for liquid water to exist.
However, it’s very likely that advanced alien civilizations m inhabiting other parts of the cosmos might have adopted similar techniques in order to hide their worlds from possible predators.
Professor David Kipping and his student Alex Teachey from Columbia University in New York believe that ‘alien astronomers’ might be using similar techniques as we do, in order to spot habitable zones around distant stars. Some of these aliens might not be as benevolent as we would want them to be, this is why it would be a great idea to hide our planet from prying ‘alien’ eyes.
The two researchers believe we can effectively hide our planet by masking the dip it creates while passing in front of our star. This can be achieved by sending a continuous 30MW laser blast for 10 hours each year.
‘There is an ongoing debate as to whether we should advertise ourselves or hide from advanced civilizations potentially living on planets elsewhere in the galaxy.
‘Our work offers humanity a choice, at least for transit events, and we should think about what we want to do,’ explained Professor Kipping.
In the past, numerous scientists have warned about sending radio signals into outer space since it could attract hostile aliens that would be technologically superior than we are. Professor Stephen Hawking warned about Aliens last year in an interview with El Pais: “ If aliens visit us, the outcome could be much like when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out well for the Native Americans. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach. To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational. The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like.” Hawking speculated.
But Hawking wasn’t the only one to suggest looking for aliens might not be such a great idea.
According to a statement from Dr. Kaku, who is an advisor on the Discovery channel’s Curiosity series, the human race wouldn’t stand a chance if Aliens came to Earth and attacked us. Aliens which could be over a million years ahead of our technology could wipe out mankind in seconds if they were to invade our tiny little planet.
“Hollywood assumes the aliens are maybe 100 years advanced than us and only if we had a secret weapon would defeat the aliens.
“Wrong.
“They could be a thousand, a million years more advanced than us. Realize the universe is 13.7 billion years old – they could have weapons we couldn’t even conceive of,” said Dr. Kaku.
This is why Professor David Kipping and Alex Teachey have proposed sending a continuous 30MW laser blast for 10 hours each year in order to hide our planet.
In their study, the duo wrote: „We suggest that advanced civilizations could cloak their presence, or deliberately broadcast it, through controlled laser emission. Such emission could distort the apparent shape of their transit light curves with relatively little energy, due to the collimated beam and relatively infrequent nature of transits. We estimate that humanity could cloak the Earth from Kepler-like broadband surveys using an optical monochromatic laser array emitting a peak power of about 30 MW for roughly 10 hours per year.
A chromatic cloak, effective at all wavelengths, is more challenging requiring a large array of tunable lasers with a total power of approximately 250 MW. Alternatively, a civilization could cloak only the atmospheric signatures associated with biological activity on their world, such as oxygen, which is achievable with a peak laser power of just around 160 kW per transit. Finally, we suggest that the time of transit for optical SETI is analogous to the water-hole in radio SETI, providing a clear window in which observers may expect to communicate. Accordingly, we propose that a civilization may deliberately broadcast their technological capabilities by distorting their transit to an artificial shape, which serves as both a SETI beacon and a medium for data transmission. Such signatures could be readily searched in the archival data of transit surveys.“
‘To another civilization, this should make the Earth appear as if life never took hold on our world,’ said Mr. Teachey.
The proposal created by Professor David Kipping and Alex Teachey are published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Japan's space agency says that has received signals from the Hitomi satellite, which might have separated into multiple pieces due to being hit by space debrisJAXA
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) says it is still receiving signals from the its black hole-hunting satellite Hitomi, even though it is likely that the $273m (£191m) observatory has broken into multiple pieces.
Hitomi, which is a state-of-the-art x-ray observatory, was developed in conjunction with Nasa, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), with the intention of having it observe and analyse some of the greats secrets of the universe, such as black holes and exploding stars.
Hitomi, also known as ASTRO-H, was launched into space on 17 February, but JAXA lost contact with the satellite 4.40pm GMT (00.40am JST, 09.40am CST) on 26 March. Then on 27 March, the US Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC), which tracks and monitors all space debris near Earth tweeted that five pieces of debris were seen floating in the vicinity of Hitomi around the same time that it lost communication with Earth.
Then on 28 March, JSpOC confirmed that its analysis of the incident showed that the Hitomi satellite definitely did break into multiple pieces, which means that the satellite was possibly hit by some sort of space debris that caused it break into pieces.
Now that's pretty bad news, and JAXA has since confirmed JSpOC's report, but the Japanese space agency hasn't given up on finding Hitomi, and in fact posted an update on 29 March at 2pm GMT (10pm JST, 7am CST), stating that it received signals from the satellite on two separate occasions.
"The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has been trying to communicate with the X-ray Astronomy Satellite "Hitomi" (ASTRO-H), using ground stations both in Japan and overseas. By utilising two opportunities of communicating with Hitomi, JAXA received signals from the satellite: the first time was at about 10pm on 28 (March) at the Uchinoura Ground Station, and the second one was at around 0.30am on 29 (March) at the Santiago Tracking Station in Chile," JASA wrote in its update.
"JAXA has not been able to figure out the state of its health, as the time frames for receiving the signals were very short."
So in fact, Hitomi might not have suffered extensive damage after all, a belief echoed by Dr Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics who is also the author of Jonathan's Space Report, a bi-monthly newsletter that documents satellite launches.
"'Debris' doesn't mean Hitomi's in little pieces. It means little pieces have come off it. Satellite might be basically intact, we don't know," McDowell wrote in a post that was retweeted by JSpOC.
"Debris" doesn't mean Hitomi's in little pieces. It means little pieces have come off it. Satellite might be basically intact,we don't know
JAXA also confirmed that telescopes at the Bisei Space Guard Center (BSGC) owned by the Japan Space Forum detected two objects around the satellite's original orbit, and that a radar located at the Kamisaibara Space Guard Center (KSGC) identified one of the objects. The space agency says it is continuing to investigate the connection between JSpOC's information and the communication anomaly.
For now, we still very little about what's happened to the Hitomi satellite, but it would be great if $273m hadn't gone completely down the drain.
…ou illusion d'optique comme sur cette photo mettant volontairement en situation étonnante l'œuvre d'un architecte ?
Phénomènes d'optique comme sur ce document amateur… - (Photos archives NR)
Lumières étranges, objets brillants se déplaçant à des vitesses inhabituelles, triangles lumineux… l’Indre-et-Loire n’échappe pas aux apparitions parfois étonnantes. Ovnis or not ovnis ?
Loches, le 19 juin 1980, il est 23 h 45. « Un enfant voit sa chambre s'éclairer et aperçoit par la fenêtre un engin de forme triangulaire. Des lumières fixes ou clignotantes éclairent l'objet qui se déplace sans bruit. La base de l'engin est éclairée de jaune et sur les côtés des lumières jaunes et rouges disposées alternativement clignotent. Un gyrophare rouge s'éclaire fortement lorsque les lumières des côtés arrivent au sommet. Effrayé l'enfant appelle sa mère et ils verront ensemble l'engin disparaître dans le paysage. Lors de l'observation le ciel était nuageux. Aucune autre information n'a été recueillie sur ce phénomène pour lequel nous manquons d'informations. »
En juillet de cette même année, la mère de cet enfant se rend à la brigade de gendarmerie de Loches et y fait une déposition. Souhaitant rester discrète sur ce phénomène des plus étranges, elle demande au brigadier qui la reçoit de ne pas ébruiter l'affaire. Le procès-verbal suivra pourtant alors le chemin des procédures habituelles : ministère de la Défense, commandement des bases aériennes, services de renseignements… Pour se retrouver aujourd'hui dans les archives du Geipan, le très sérieux Groupe d'études et d'informations sur les phénomènes aérospatiaux non identifiés. Une structure scientifique rattachée au Centre national d'études spatiales (Cnes) sur lequel l'État français porte une attention toute particulière.
Ou quand l'étoile Capella joue aux ovnis
Sur le site du Geipan il est ainsi possible d'accéder à toutes les archives mentionnant des apparitions étranges survenues dans le ciel de Touraine. A la plupart d'entre elles, les scientifiques du Geipan apportent une explication qui décevra les adeptes d'ovnis.
Comme en ce mois de mars 2015 où plusieurs témoins, dans le secteur de Joué-lès-Tours, observent un objet lumineux se déplaçant dans le ciel. A cela, les scientifiques concluront « que le cas concerne l'observation certaine de l'étoile Capella doublée d'une illusion de déplacement et d'un effet physiologique de micro-nystagmus. L'étoile disparaît probablement masquée par un banc de nuages ».
Il existe ainsi plusieurs cas tourangeaux recensés ces dernières décennies par le Geipan. Entre phénomènes étranges et sans réponses - comme celui de Loches - et apparitions « normales » (satellites, étoiles, illusion d'optique, ballon-sonde…), le ciel de Touraine livre ainsi (presque) tous ses mystères. Pour faire référence à la célèbre série X-Files, la vérité n'est donc pas forcément ailleurs…
repères
En France, 16 % des phénomènes analysés par le Geipan sont parfaitement identifiés. Et 34 % sont probablement identifiés.
En fait, sur la totalité des phénomènes observés sur le territoire national « seuls » 280 d'entre eux sont non-identifiés.
Pyramids in China Hidden by the Chinese Government We have all heard about the great Pyramid, the one in Giza, that is the tallest Pyramid on Earth, Right? You may be surprised to discover that the great Pyramid found in Giza is NOT the tallest one on Earth, in fact it is not even close. Wait till you hear this!

https://www.youtube.com/user/TheKeplertelescope In China, there are large Pyramids that are not only lined with the stars and showing advanced Mathematics in lay-out, design and construction, they are also among the largest in the World, in fact the true great Pyramid, the largest that we know of, is twice the size of the Great Pyramid at Giza and it is hidden in plain, but why are the Chinese trying to hide the biggest and most significant archaeological find of the Ancient World? Despite speculation about the existence of the great pyramids in China, archaeologists have refused to consider even the rumours about such structures. But recent aerial pictures proves that China’s pyramids are indeed real, rivalling those of Egypt and Central America for their age, size and significance. The Chinese pyramids drew popular attention just after World War II. Many early stories were focused on the existence of the Great White Pyramid. This is the tomb of Emperor Wu of Han located in Shaanxi Province.** shang-k-sii, (I think)** U.S. Army Air Corps pilot James Gaussman is said to have seen a white jewel-topped pyramid during a flight between India and China during World War II. James Gaussman told of his eyewitness encounter with a Chinese pyramid in the March 28, 1947 edition of The New York Times. A photo of a pyramid in China appeared in The New York Sunday News on March 30, 1947, raising a few eye brows across the globe. Pseudo-historians have increased western awareness of these pyramids. Hartwig Hausdorf speculated it was built by aliens, and Philip Coppens repeated this theory The existence of these pyramids in China remained completely unknown in the Western world until the 1910s. They were documented in large numbers around Xian, first in 1912 by the Western traders Fred Meyer Schroder and Oscar Maman, and also in 1913 by the expedition of Victor Segalen. It is located about 40 miles southwest of Xian **Zyan**, the largest of sixteen pyramids located in the area designated as a no-go area, a forbidden zone by Communist authorities. These restrictions make it extremely difficult and dangerous for Westerners to visit the pyramid and take photographs of it. Despite the restrictions and with the help of the people of China, photos are emerging. It is unknown when exactly the Great Pyramid of China was built. According to some Chinese archaeologists the pyramid was built around 3000 years before the birth of Christ. Ancient records preserved in an old monastery near the Mongolian border describe the Xian pyramid. The structure was said to measure 1,000 feet in height which made it the highest pyramid in the world, the Great Pyramid of Egypt is 450 feet in height, so the Great China pyramid is more than double the height. Imagine that for a second, 2 Giza pyramids on top of each other and then some, does that not blow your mind? According to the monastic documents the pyramid was already extremely old when the records were made so we are talking about some of the oldest structures on Earth here. In the valleys surrounding the Xian pyramid there are dozens of other pyramids, some almost as tall as the Great Xian Pyramid, these smaller ones are also larger than any of the other Pyramids found scattered across the globe. When Hartwig Hausdorf and his friend Peter Krassa reached the township of Xianyang, about 40 miles west of Xian they saw at least 15 pyramids in the area. The two researchers were surprised to see small trees planted on the sides of these pyramids. “I had been told that, over the past four or five years, the Chinese had been planting fast growing conifers, a kind of Cypress tree on the slopes of these pyramids. I wondered briefly what they were trying to hide by making these Ancient Wonders blend so completely into their surroundings. The construction of these smaller Chinese pyramids is similar to that of the pyramids of Teo-tiahu-can**teo-tia-hu-can_, near Mexico City, the tops of most of these Chinese structures are flattened off, similar to the rectangular structures of the Mayans,” Hausdorf said. The estimated age of these pyramids is 6000 years and it is believed they have been arranged to align with certain constellations in the night sky, just as certain key pyramids in Egypt were constructed in imitation of the constellation Orion. The Chinese pyramids near Xian are proof of the immense knowledge of geometry and mathematics by these builders five millennia ago, who were they? And where did they go? In 1994, archaeologists discovered several pyramids near the Wei River, north of Xian. It is thought that there may be as many 100 pyramids in China, including the Great White Pyramid which is the highest of them all. All of them are unheard of in the Western world so spread the word guys. Who were the mysterious Chinese pyramid builders? Were they members of an ancient Atlantean civilization, or were they perhaps giants of the past, or maybe even Alien visitors or inhabitants from the stars? Maybe they positioned the pyramids under their home stars. Local villagers claim their distant ancestors spoke of sky ships that navigated the heavens and used the pyramids. Whatever the purpose was for these Pyramids, they were built with such precision that our current technology cannot replicate it. Pretty amazing right. What do you guys think of the Giant Pyramids in China? Why are the Chinese trying to keep them secret? Comments below.
Ook het leven van de zon duurt niet eeuwig en als de zon sterft ziet het er slecht uit voor onze planeet. Maar misschien…kunnen we de aarde met haar hele hebben en houwen wel verhuizen naar een veiliger plekje!
Een hele tijd geleden kon je op Scientias.nl lezen wat er gebeuren zou als onze zon sterft. Erg rooskleurig zag het er niet uit. Kort samengevat: de zon wordt groter en helderder (een rode reus) en slokt Mercurius en Venus op. En ook voor de aarde ziet het er niet goed uit: de kans is aanwezig dat onze planeet ook door de uitdijende zon wordt verorberd. Of de aarde wordt – in het gunstigste geval – enkel geroosterd en van zijn water ontdaan. Beide scenario’s resulteren in hetzelfde: de aarde raakt zijn leven kwijt.
Redding Het is nog niet direct iets om vannacht over wakker te liggen. De zon heeft naar schatting nog meer dan zes miljard levensjaren te gaan en zal pas over zo’n 3,5 miljard jaar een bedreiging voor het leven op aarde gaan vormen. Desalniettemin houdt deze naderende ellende wetenschappers in haar greep. Want hoe kunnen we het leven op aarde – ervan uitgaande dat dat er tegen die tijd überhaupt nog is – redden?
De zon laat haar stralen over de aarde glijden. Afbeelding: NASA.
Huis en haard verlaten Er is een vrij simpele oplossing: maken dat we wegkomen. We zouden in een ruimteschip kunnen stappen en naar een exoplaneet (een planeet buiten ons zonnestelsel) kunnen vliegen die in veel opzichten op onze aarde lijkt. Voorwaarde is wel dat zo’n exoplaneet bestaat (tot op heden hebben we het tweelingzusje van de aarde nog niet kunnen vinden) en we deze bereiken kunnen (de dichtstbijzijnde exoplaneet is zo’n 40 biljoen kilometer van ons verwijderd).
Huis en haard meenemen Het zal even slikken zijn: onze planeet – of wat er tegen die tijd dan nog van over is – achterlaten. Gelukkig is er nog een andere manier om het vege lijf te redden. En het grote voordeel van deze methode is dat we niet alleen ons eigen vege lijf, maar ook dat van de aarde veilig kunnen stellen. Wetenschappers kwamen enkele jaren geleden met het idee om de gehele aarde te verhuizen. Het is een interessant voorstel dat in theorie zou kunnen werken. De zon wordt groter en helderder en vroeg of laat komt deze te dicht bij onze planeet in de buurt. Tenzij we de afstand tussen de zon en de aarde voorafgaand aan dat moment geleidelijk aan vergroten. Klinkt eenvoudig, maar dat is het niet. Want hoe gaan we de aarde in beweging krijgen?
Een artistieke impressie van een Kuipergordelobject. Afbeelding: NASA.
Kuipergordelobject In 2008 deden drie wetenschappers dat in hun paper ‘Astronomical engineering: a strategy for modifying planetary orbits‘ uit de doeken. Ze stelden voor om gebruik te maken van een Kuipergordelobject. Dit zijn objecten die zich voorbij de baan van Neptunus bevinden en – net als de planeten – om de zon cirkelen. Om zo’n Kuipergordelobject te kunnen gebruiken, moeten we het eerst dichterbij halen. Dat kan door het object – dat een omvang van zo’n 100 kilometer moet hebben – af te remmen (bijvoorbeeld door met behulp van een raket tegengas te geven). Het Kuipergordelobject zal dan richting het hart van het zonnestelsel beginnen te vallen. Het is de bedoeling dat het object daarbij op zo’n 16.000 kilometer afstand langs onze planeet scheert. Tijdens die scheervlucht moet het object de aarde een zwiepje geven, waardoor onze planeet zich van de zon verwijdert.
MAG DE MAAN MEE?
Ze zijn al heel lang samen: de aarde en de maan. Wat gebeurt er met onze natuurlijke satelliet wanneer we de aarde gaan verhuizen? Mag de maan mee? Uit de berekeningen van de onderzoekers blijkt dat de aarde de maan tijdens dit hele proces kwijt zou raken. Nu is het verlies van de maan mogelijk niet wenselijk en zullen er dus wellicht maatregelen moeten worden getroffen om onze natuurlijke satelliet toch mee te laten verhuizen.
Geduld! Eén scheervlucht van een Kuipergordelobject zal ons niet van de ondergang kunnen redden. Daarvoor zijn meerdere scheervluchten (bij voorkeur van hetzelfde Kuipergordelobject) nodig. Met elke scheervlucht schuift de aarde namelijk ongeveer 48 kilometer op. Om de aarde ver genoeg van de zon vandaan te krijgen, moet er voor de rest van het leven van de zon elke 6000 jaar zo’n scheervlucht plaatsvinden. In dat scenario zou de aarde over 6,3 miljard jaar – wanneer de zon 2,2 keer helderder is dan nu het geval is – anderhalf keer verder van de zon verwijderd zijn dan nu het geval is en ongeveer evenveel zonlicht ontvangen als deze nu doet. Het zou betekenen dat de oceanen niet gaan koken, de planeet niet geroosterd wordt en het leven op aarde blijft bestaan.
De risico’s Het klinkt als een prachtig plan. Maar er zijn wel risico’s aan verbonden. Het komt namelijk allemaal heel erg nauw. Om zoveel mogelijk energie op de aarde af te geven, moet het Kuipergordelobject heel dicht bij de aarde in de buurt komen. Een kleine fout in de calculaties kan zomaar resulteren in een inslag. Wanneer een object met een omvang van zo’n 100 kilometer op aarde inslaat, zou al het leven op aarde (met uitzondering van de bacteriën) verdwijnen. Ook het effect dat het Kuipergordelobject op de aarde heeft, moet goed berekend worden: we willen natuurlijk niet dichter naar de zon toe bewegen. En welke gevolgen heeft het verhuizen van de aarde voor de andere planeten in ons zonnestelsel? “De gevolgen van het opnieuw inrichten van het zonnestelsel moeten geëvalueerd worden,” zo schrijven de onderzoekers. Ze verwijzen daarbij naar een studie uit het eind van de twintigste eeuw die aantoont dat het verwijderen van de aarde uit ons zonnestelsel ervoor zou zorgen dat Venus en Mercurius uit balans raken. Hoewel de onderzoekers niet voornemens zijn de aarde te verwijderen, zou het verhuizen ervan ook gevolgen kunnen hebben voor de stabiliteit van andere planeten.
Zo zijn de planeten nu geordend. Maar wat gebeurt er als we met één van die planeten gaan rommelen? Afbeelding: WP (via Wikimedia Commons).
Er zijn dus zeker risico’s aan verbonden. En dat brengt ons bij de vraag: wegen die risico’s op tegen het redden van onze planeet? Voor je daar een antwoord op kan geven, is het goed om te weten dat ook het verhuizen van de aarde in feite niets meer is dan uitstel van executie. Want de zon blijft niet voor eeuwig een rode dwerg. Uiteindelijk zal alleen de kern van de zon overblijven. We noemen dat een witte dwerg. Die kern – waarin geen fusie meer plaatsvindt – koelt steeds verder af. En zo komen we voor een nieuw probleem te staan: dit keer geen hitte, maar kou. En dan zal er dus opnieuw een oplossing gezocht moeten worden om ons vege lijf te redden.
Gelanceerd met een H-IIA draagraket in februari, zijn er zware problemen met een Japanse satelliet voor ambitieus astronomisch onderzoek, zo heeft het Japanse ruimtevaartbureau Jaxa bekendgemaakt.
Vorige week verloor de röntgensatelliet Hitomi (de nieuwe naam voor de Astro-H) de communicatielink met de grond.
De kunstmaan was er niet in geslaagd zichzelf te stabiliseren, raakte op 26 maart in een rolbeweging en liep daarna "enige schade" op, aldus een functionaris van het Jaxa. Het denkt niet dat de satelliet met ruimteschroot is gebotst. Meerdere objecten, tot een meter groot, in de buurt van het tuig zouden afgebroken delen van de kunstmaan zijn.
Wel heeft de satelliet nog vier onvolledige pakketten data doorgestuurd wat erop wijst dat sommige systemen nog steeds functioneren.
Mogelijk zal het Jaxa maanden nodig hebben om te weten hoe het precies zit en om eventueel wegen te vinden om de Hitomi weer aan de praat te krijgen.
Als mogelijke oorzaak denkt het Jaxa aan een breuk in de heliumtank, een brandstoflek in de stabilisatiemotor of een batterijpanne.
Medeontwikkeld door de Amerikaanse NASA beschikt de Hitomi over vier röntgentelescopen en twee detectoren van gammmastraling.
Wetenschappers hoopten bijvoorbeeld meer te weten te komen over zwarte gaten.

VREEMD WEZEN ONTDEKT IN THAMES BIJ LONDEN, GB ( VIDEO )
VREEMD WEZEN ONTDEKT IN THAMES BIJ LONDEN, GB ( VIDEO )
Iedere dag maken toeristen gebruik van een mooie kabelbaan die bij Greenwich in Londen de ene oever met de andere verbindt.
Je hebt van daaruit een prachtig uitzicht over de rivier en soms zie je ook dingen die er eigenlijk niet thuis horen.
In Londen heb je tegenwoordig een kabelbaan die de ene oever van de Theems met de andere verbindt.
Wanneer je echt van het uitzicht wilt genieten, is het natuurlijk een mooie manier om van de ene kant naar de andere van de stad te reizen.
Nu zijn er enkele mensen geweest die tijdens die overtocht over de rivier iets vreemds onder en half boven water hebben gezien.
Het zag eruit zoals op de volgende foto’s:
Er zijn door een aantal mensen ook video-opnames gemaakt zoals hieronder te zien.
Wat het ook is, het is maar heel kort zichtbaar.
Afgezien van een vreemd wezen zou het natuurlijk ook een soort onderzeeër of iets dergelijks kunnen zijn. Als dat het geval is dan zal ongetwijfeld Vladimir Poetin weer worden aangewezen als schuldige (grapje).
Natuurlijk bestaat ook de mogelijkheid dat het monster van Loch Ness besloten heeft om een lang weekend in Londen door te brengen.

Silver UFO Over Neighborhood In Virginia On March 26, 2016, Photos, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: March 26, 2016 Location of sighting: Alexandria, Virginia, USA Source: MUFON #75524 This UFO was reported today on MUFON and the eyewitness states they spotted the object while on the train. Excellent capture, even though he only had a few seconds to get the photos. If you live in Alexandria and have seen this UFO, please let us know in comments below. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com Eyewitness states: On Saturday March 26, 2016- I was exiting the Huntington Metro garage on the Huntington Ave side (lower Huntington Metro) when coming down the ramp across from Fenwick Dr. when I glanced up and saw a strange silver/grey object hovering off in the distance seemingly over the area of the highway/Eisenhower ave/ Duke st. I could not tell its exact size but it was large and stationary ( it did not lower or raised as I watched it). I noticed that the sky was partly cloudy but the top of the object was reflecting sunlight or radiated its own light. As I was watching the item, a couple came up to me and said that they had first spotted the object form the metro train as they came into Eisenhower station. The wife stated that her husband did not see any type of tether and ask me did I see one. I said I did not as we watched it hover, then spin on its axis and I saw the attachment just under its "nose". It was slightly curve and reddish in color. I took out my cell phone and snap off a couple of pictures. I then quickly cross Huntington ave and made my way towards Huntington Park, which took me know more than 5 minutes. I lost sight of the object so I crossed the length of the park still not spotting it. I made my way to the banks of Camron Run/ Huntington Creek, looked and saw nothing. I stood there for about 10 minutes before I left and went on my way. The pictures are nice and clear but the object to far away for the phone to get a better picture. Blow-up you can see the attachment better.
