SpaceX Racing NASA to Mars, Plans to Land on the Red Planet by 2018
SpaceX Racing NASA to Mars, Plans to Land on the Red Planet by 2018
SpaceX
IN BRIEF
SpaceX plans to send its Dragon spacecraft to Mars as early as 2018, the company announced today - marking a major first step toward CEO Elon Musk's goal of sending humans to the Red Planet. The company will reveal the full plan this September.
THE RED DRAGON MEETS THE RED PLANET
A dragon is landing on Mars—yes, you read that right.
The company isn’t saying much regarding how many spacecraft will end up on the Red Planet, but they hinted about a series of Dragon missions, promising more details soon. In a tweet, the company indicated that the capsules would fly on SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket, which will launch the capsules to the planet to test out how to land heavy payloads on Mars.
Planning to send Dragon to Mars as soon as 2018. Red Dragons will inform overall Mars architecture, details to come
This would be a huge achievement for Elon Musk’s company, and make SpaceX the first private spaceflight company to land a vehicle on another planet.
RACING NASA
The Red Dragon is a modified version of the spacecraft that SpaceX uses to transport cargo to and from the International Space Station. It’s equipped with eight SuperDraco engines that allow the capsule to land on solid ground, a technique known as a propulsive landing, which allow a more controlled landing. This could be an efficient way to get large amounts of hardware down to the surface of Mars—something NASA still hasn’t quite figured out.
Figuring out the landing technique is important, but it’s just part of what is needed to start a Mars colony.
The company will also need to develop an interplanetary transport vehicle, surface habitats, life support systems, and more (like, a lot more). However, if SpaceX meets their 2018 deadline, it suggests the company may be farther along than even NASA at putting people on the Red Planet.
Musk has said that he will reveal the full extent of his Mars colonization plan this September at the International Aeronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico.
Baffling footage purporting to show an object trailing the International Space Station has emerged from Russia.
The video was reported to show a spacecraft or piece of debris following the station as it orbited Earth last month.
The footage - claimed to have been shot on the ISS's own cameras - was said to have been taken while the satellite was waiting for a supplies delivery.
The object is seen floating behind a Russian Soyuz spacecraft, which are used to transport cosmonauts
The appearance of the object in the video has baffled viewers trying to determine what exactly it could be
While some have suggested it is a UFO, others say it is a piece of debris or some other floating matter
It was said the video was recorded by ISS cameras, through the veracity of the claim has not been established
Many have claimed the object is a UFO - but others remain skeptical about the authenticity of the film and the explanations for the object.
Some pointed out that cameras on the ISS record video of significantly better quality than that seen in the short recording.
Meanwhile, the rotation and motion of the object does not look to correspond to that of an object in orbit.
One clue could could lie in the fact a Russian Soyuz spacecraft - used to carry cosmonauts into space - is seen in the footage.
Astronauts on the film's soundtrack make no comment about the object seemingly observing them, it was reported.
The video quickly went viral online where it was hotly debated by viewers. Some described it as a 'companion ship'.
One viewer, identified as Kirill Polishchuk, said: 'Debris from the ISS will have roughly the same speed. It is a thermal insulation board, most likely.'
Meanwhile, today the Cygnus cargo vessel was launched back into space packed full of garbage it had accrued during its time with the ISS.
The capsule, built by private space company Orbital ATK, was pushed out into the emptiness of space using a large robotic arm on the space station as it flew above Bolivia.
Once the spacecraft reached a safe distance from the space station, its engines were due to fire twice, sending it on course for a fiery finale in the Earth's atmosphere.
The spaceship, which was named SS Deke Slayton II after one of Nasa's original astronauts, will burn up in the atmosphere during re-entry.
Astronauts on the film's soundtrack make no comment about the object following them, it was reported
There is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, from other civilizations . . . [and] it behooves us, in case some of these people in the future or now should turn hostile, to find out who they are, where they come from, and what they want. This should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.
– Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee (source)
You may be thinking that this is absolutely ridiculous. I know many people read the titles of articles like this one and turn their heads and scoff, immediately shutting down the possibility that these could be actual photos of extraterrestrial beings. Why do we hold onto our views so staunchly, at the expense of logic and reason? What prevents us from considering new ideas and new ways of viewing the world? So much new information is emerging every day which challenges the current accepted framework of knowledge, and it can be difficult for our opinions to evolve as quickly as the science. Nonetheless, this is an extremely important topic, especially with the recent disclosures of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) by various governments and defence intelligence agencies, and we must work past our reluctance to accept new ideas. These objects are constantly photographed and tracked on radar, as well as visually confirmed by the pilots who are sent out to see them, and we would be foolish to discount this kind of evidence.
For example, here is one (out of thousands) of documents detailing encounters with UFOs. In this case, like many others, both of the F-4 interceptor pilots reported seeing the object visually; it was also tracked on their airborne radar. Both planes experienced critical instrumentation and electronics going offline at a distance of twenty-five miles from the object. Here is an excerpt from the report:
As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4. (source)
A photo taken by two Royal Canadian Air Force pilots on August 27th, 1957, in McCleod, Alberta, Canada is another example of such evidence. The pilots were flying in a formation of four F86 Sabre jet aircraft. One of the pilots described the phenomenon as a “bright light which was sharply defined as disk-shaped” and which looked like “a shiny silver dollar sitting horizontal.” Another pilot managed to photograph the object, as you can see above.
There are a number of studies published in reputable peer-reviewed journals analyzing these cases. This specific sighting lasted for a couple of minutes, and the case was analyzed by Dr. Bruce Maccabee, who estimated (from available data) the luminosity of the object (the power output within the spectral range of the film) to be many megawatts. The Sturrock Panel also found that a strong magnetic field surrounding the phenomenon or object was a common occurrence:
If it does indeed turn out that there is relevant physical evidence, if this evidence is carefully collected and analyzed, and if this analysis leads to the identification of several facts concerning the UFO phenomenon, then will be the time for scientists to step back and ask, what are these facts trying to tell us? If those facts are strong enough to lead to a firm conclusion, then will be the time to confront the more bizarre questions. If, for instance, it turns out that all physical evidence is consistent with a mundane interpretation of the causes of UFO reports, there will be little reason to continue to speculate about the role of extraterrestrial beings. If, on the other hand, the analysis of physical evidence turns up very strong evidence that objects related with UFO reports were manufactured outside the solar system, then one must obviously consider very seriously that the phenomenon involves not only extraterrestrial vehicles but probably also extraterrestrial beings.
Dr. Jacques Vallee, notable for co-developing the first computerized mapping of Mars for NASA, and for his work at SRI International on the network information center for ARPANET, a precursor to the modern Internet, also published a paper in the Journal of Scientific Exploration titled “Estimates of Optical Power Output in Six Cases Of Unexplained Ariel Objects With Defined Luminosity Characteristics.” (source)(source)
“An extraterrestrial influence is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously” — 2008 Presidential Candidate Mike Gravel (source)(source)
You can read about this phenomena in more detail from the articles below.
The above information is provided in order to give readers insight into the reality of the UFO phenomenon; whether or not they are extraterrestrial is a completely different question. These objects commonly perform maneuvers and travel at speeds which no known aircraft can achieve, and there have been countless reports of beings from other worlds that are closely associated with this phenomenon. To say that some of these unidentified objects are extraterrestrial in origin is highly plausible. And you can read more about the extraterrestrial hypothesis and why it’s not so far fetched in a specific section of a recently published article HERE.

“Intelligent beings from other star systems have been and are visiting our planet Earth. They are variously referred to as Visitors, Others, Star People, ETs, etc. . . . They are visiting Earth NOW; this is not a matter of conjecture or wistful thinking.” – Theodore C. Loder III, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Earth Sciences, University of New Hampshire (source)
Possible Extraterrestrial Beings?
What do you think extraterrestrial would look like? Evolutionary biologist Simon Conway Morris, best known for his study on the Cambrian explosion, believes extraterrestrials are real and that they will look like humans. You can read more about that here.
The picture to your left was released by a professor by the name of Bruno Sammaciccia. A Catholic historian with degrees in psychology and psychiatry, he was the author of more than 100 books and a well-known, distinguished figure in Italian academic circles.
He is thought to have taken this photograph of an alleged 10 foot tall extraterrestrial being in Italy in 1976.
If you read the lore, there are many stories of a mysterious group of extraterrestrials who look like humans and who established underground bases in Italy, meeting with local residents between 1956 and 1978.
Not long before his death, Sammaciccia claimed he had had direct physical contact with extraterrestrials over several decades. Dr. Roberto Pinotti, a leading Italian UFOlogist, has since confirmed his decades-long knowledge of the Sammaciccia cases. When it comes to human extraterrestrial contact in modern history, this case ranks among the most compelling, given the pictures and the number of witnesses involved.
Here is a brief summary of the Sammaciccia contact story as given by UFO researcher Dr. Michael Salla (founder of exopolitics.org):
In 1956 when Bruno Sammaciccia and two friends met with two mysterious individuals who said they were extraterrestrials. One was over 8 foot tall while the other was just over 3 foot. Sammaciccia and his friends, initially skeptical, were eventually taken into a large underground base where they saw more of the alleged extraterrestrials. They also saw their children being educated, some of the advanced technologies they used, and their space ships. Finally convinced that they were really having physical contact with extraterrestrials, Sammaciccia and his friends began to help the extraterrestrials. They began with material support by arranging for truckloads of fruit, food and other material to be transported and unloaded at an extraterrestrial base. Eventually, two truckloads of supplies were being delivered every month to bases in different regions of Italy where Sammaciccia and his assistants lived.
Sammaciccia finally described a violent conflict between two factions of extraterrestrials trying to influence humanity’s development and future. While his ‘Friendship’ faction promoted cosmic unity and ethical development, the other faction promoted technological development at all cost. This led to periodic violent clashes between the factions. Eventually, the underground bases of Sammaciccia’s extraterrestrial friends was destroyed in 1978. Survivors had to leave the Earth but promised to return at a future time when humanity was ready for a more ethical future of humanity interacting with extraterrestrials.
Sammaciccia’s astounding story sounds like an episode from Star Trek, but it is well supported by documentary evidence, some of Italy’s finest UFO researchers, and first hand witnesses of the events described. Some of the witnesses were leading statesmen, scholars and high society figures from Italy and Europe.
Below is a lecture given by one of the world’s foremost researchers of this topic, Timothy Good. He goes into detail about this supposed encounter, as well as many others.
To the left you will see a picture that was given to the world by Phil Schneider.
Phil was a very controversial figure, as was his death. He was born in 1947 and was the son of Oscar and Sally Schneider. Oscar was a Captain in the United States Navy who apparently worked in nuclear medicine and helped design the first nuclear submarines. He was also supposedly part of the famous ‘Philadelphia Experiment,’ as well as Operation Crossroads, a program to test nuclear weapons.
Oscar Schneider is the gentleman to the right of the man with the red circle around his head. Phil (man in the video below, apparently Oscars son, and Oscar appear to resemble each other quite strongly. The man with the circle around his head is the supposed extraterrestrial. The others are apparently some of the world’s top physicists from the time.
Philip claimed to be an ex-government structural engineer who was involved in building underground military bases (DUMB) around the country. We’ve actually published a couple of detailed articles about DUMBs, whose existence is not mere speculation. You can read more about them in these articles below:
Phil had some incredible stories to tell about various moments in his life, one of which was the story of how he lost two fingers and had his body sliced open. While all of this is anecdotal and unverifiable, it is interesting to consider nonetheless, perhaps his missing fingers and the big scar on his body (as shown in the video) are from something else.
Phil passed away shortly after beginning to give lectures on the nature of his work. To this day, his ex-wife continues to raise awareness about the truth behind his death. You can listen to an interview with herhere, and below you can find a lecture given by Phil.

Wearing black headsets with tentacle-like sensors stretched over their foreheads, the competitors stare at cubes floating on computer screens as their small white drones prepare for takeoff.
'Three, two, one ... GO!' the announcer hollers, and as the racers fix their thoughts on pushing the cubes, the drones suddenly whir, rise and buzz through the air.
Some struggle to move even a few feet, while others zip confidently across the finish line.
Competitors in the Florida race use specially programmed headbands to monitor their brainwaves - moving the drone when they will it to happen.
HOW IT WORKS
Each of the 16 racers wears an EEG headband.
The EEG headset is calibrated to identify the electrical activity associated with particular thoughts in each wearer's brain — recording, for example, where neurons fire when the wearer imagines pushing a chair across the floor.
Programmers write code to translate these 'imaginary motion' signals into commands that computers send to the drones.
The competition — billed as the world's first drone race involving a brain-controlled interface — involved 16 pilots using willpower to drive drones through a 10-yard dash over an indoor basketball court at the University of Florida this past weekend.
The Associated Press was there to record the event, which organizers hope to make an annual inter-collegiate spectacle, involving ever-more dynamic moves and challenges and a trophy that puts the brain on a pedestal.
'With events like this, we're popularizing the use of BCI instead of it being stuck in the research lab,' said Chris Crawford, a PhD student in human-centered computing.
'BCI was a technology that was geared specifically for medical purposes, and in order to expand this to the general public, we actually have to embrace these consumer brand devices and push them to the limit.'
Scientists have been able to detect brainwaves for more than a century, and mind-controlled technology already is helping paralyzed people move limbs or robotic prosthetics.
But now the technology is becoming widely accessible.
Emotiv and NeuroSky are among startups offering electroencephalogram headsets for purchase online for several hundred dollars.
The models Florida racers used cost about $500 each.
Here's how the technology delivers an abstract thought through the digital realm and into the real world: Each EEG headset is calibrated to identify the electrical activity associated with particular thoughts in each wearer's brain — recording, for example, where neurons fire when the wearer imagines pushing a chair across the floor.
Programmers write code to translate these 'imaginary motion' signals into commands that computers send to the drones.
Professor Juan Gilbert, whose computer science students organized the race, is inviting other universities to assemble brain-drone racing teams for 2017, pushing interest in a technology with a potential that seems limited only by the human imagination.
As our lives become increasingly reliant on Internet-enabled devices, a concept known as the Internet of things, Gilbert and his team want to know how mind-controlled devices can expand and change the way we play, work and live.
University of Florida sophomore Michael Lakin, 19, uses a brain-controlled interface headset to fly a drone during a mind-controlled drone race in Gainesville, Fla.
You might use your mind to unlock your car, or explore a virtual world, hands-free.
It could be applied for real-time monitoring of our moods and states of consciousness.
Researchers are studying whether they can use a big-rig driver's mind to trigger a device that will tell him when he's too tired to drive.
'One day you could wear a brain-controlled interface device like you wear a watch, to interact with things around you,' Gilbert said.
So far, BCI research has largely been about helping disabled people regain freedom of movement.
Recently, an Ohio man using only his thoughts was able to move his paralyzed hand thanks to a chip implanted in his brain.
In Miami, doctors using BCI are helping a 19-year-old man stand on his own after losing the use of his legs in a motorcycle accident.
Dr. Monica Perez talks to Richard Tursi, 19, who is undergoing therapy that uses a brain-controlled technology to help improve his motor functions at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Miami. Tursi was in a motorcycle accident when he was 16 which left him a quadriplegic. Now he has the limited use of his arms and legs. The therapies have improved his brain function, allowing him to stand and move his arms.
Dr. Mike Urbin views highlighted areas of the brain while working with patient Richard Joseph Tursi at the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Miami.
The idea of collegiate brain-drone races pleases Dr. Bin He, a biomedical engineer at the University of Minnesota who first demonstrated a mind-controlled drone in public in 2013.
'The progress of the BCI field has been faster than I had thought ten years ago,' He said.
'We are getting closer and closer to broad application.'
But as the technology moves toward wider adoption, ethical, legal and privacy questions remain unresolved.
The U.S. Defense Department — which uses drones to kill suspected terrorists in the Middle East from vast distances — is looking for military brain-control applications.
A 2014 Defense grant supports the Unmanned Systems Laboratory at the University of Texas, San Antonio, where researchers have developed a system enabling a single person with no prior training to fly multiple drones simultaneously through mind control.
Tursi, 19, undergoes therapy that uses a brain-controlled technology to help improve his motor functions at the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Miami.
University of Florida PhD student Islam Badreldin, 31, practices driving a brain-controlled vehicle that he modified to work wirelessly in Gainesville, Fla.
In this system, instead of the pilot thinking certain thoughts to move the drones, she looks at a screen with flickering signals, triggering brain activity that translates into specific movements.
'It can accommodate lots of commands, much more than imaginary motion can,' UT scientist Yufei Huang said.
But enthusiasts should think carefully before handing over their brainwaves for purposes that have yet to be conceived or contained, said Kit Walsh, a staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation with a degree in neuroscience from MIT.
'EEG readings are similar to fingerprints: once I know what the readings look like from your brain in a certain situation,' she said. 'I'll be able to recognize you by that pattern again later on.

Physicists Made a ‘Black Hole’ in a Lab That May Finally Prove Hawking Radiation Exists
Physicists Made a ‘Black Hole’ in a Lab That May Finally Prove Hawking Radiation Exists
PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY NASA/CXC/OCIW/P. MARTINI ET AL.
NASA
IN BRIEF
Scientists may have found signs that phonons, the very small packets of energy that make up sound waves, were leaking out of sonic black holes, just as Hawking’s equations predicted.
SURVIVING A BLACK HOLE
Some 42 years ago, renowned theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking proposed that not everything that comes in contact with a black hole succumbs to its unfathomable nothingness. Tiny particles of light (photons) are sometimes ejected back out, robbing the black hole of an infinitesimal amount of energy, and this gradual loss of mass over time means every black hole eventually evaporates out of existence.
Known as Hawking radiation, these escaping particles help us make sense of one of the greatest enigmas in the known Universe, but after more than four decades, no one’s been able to actually prove they exist, and Hawking’s proposal remained firmly in hypothesis territory.
But all that could be about to change, with two independent groups of researchers reporting that they’ve found evidence to back up Hawking’s claims, and it could see one of the greatest living physicists finally win a Nobel Prize.
UNDERSTANDING THE THEORY
Let’s go back to 1974, when all of this began. Hawking had gotten into an argument with Princeton University graduate student, Jacob Bekenstein, who suggested in his PhD thesis that a black hole’s entropy – the ‘disorder’ of a system, related to its volume, energy, pressure, and temperature – was proportional to the area of its event horizon.
As Dennis Overbye explains for The New York Times, this was a problem, because according to the accepted understanding of physical laws at the time – including Hawking’s own work – the entropy and the volume of a black hole could never decrease.
Hawking investigated the claims, and soon enough, realised that he had been proven wrong. “[D]r Hawking did a prodigious calculation including quantum theory, the strange rules that govern the subatomic world, and was shocked to find particles coming away from the black hole, indicating that it was not so black after all,” Overbye writes.
Hawking proposed that the Universe is filled with ‘virtual particles’ that, according to what we know about how quantum mechanics works, blink in and out of existence and annihilate each other as soon as they come in contact – except if they happen to appear on either side of a black hole’s event horizon. Basically, one particle gets swallowed up by the black hole, and the otherradiates away into space.
The existence of Hawking radiation has answered a lot of questions about how black holes actually work, but in the process, raised a bunch of problems that physicists are still trying to reconcile.
“No result in theoretical physics has been more fundamental or influential than his discovery that black holes have entropy proportional to their surface area,”says Lee Smolin, a theoretical physicist from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada.
While Bekenstein received the Wolf Prize in 2012 and the American Physical Society’s Einstein prize in 2015 for his work, which The New York Times says are often precursors to the Nobel Prize, neither scientist has been awarded the most prestigious prize in science for the discovery. Bekenstein passed away last year, but Hawking is now closer than ever to seeing his hypothesis proven.
The problem? Remember when I said the escaping photons were stealing an infinitesimal amount of energy from a black hole every time they escaped? Well, unfortunately for Hawking, this radiation is so delicate, it’s practically impossible to detect it from thousands of light-years away.
A WAY FORWARD?
The measured thermal spectrum of the Hawking radiation. The solid curve is the measurement. The dashed curve is the theoretical thermal spectrum.
But physicist Jeff Steinhauer from Technion University in Haifa, Israel, thinks he’s come up with a solution – if we can’t detect Hawking radiation in actual black holes thousands of light-years away from our best instruments, why not bring the black holes to our best instruments?
As Oliver Moody reports for The Times,Steinhauer has managed to created a lab-sized ‘black hole’ made from sound, and when he kicked it into gear, he witnessed particles steal energy from its fringes.
Reporting his experiment in a paper posted to the physics pre-press website,arXiv.org, Steinhauer says he cooled helium to just above absolute zero, then churned it up so fast, it formed a ‘barrier’ through which sound should not be able to pass.
“Steinhauer said he had found signs that phonons, the very small packets of energy that make up sound waves, were leaking out of his sonic black hole just as Hawking’s equations predict they should,” Moody reports.
To be clear, the results of this experiment have not yet been peer-reviewed – that’s the point of putting everything up for the public to see on arXiv.org. They’re now being mulled over by physicists around the world, and they’re already proving controversial, but worthy of further investigation.
“The experiments are beautiful,” physicist Silke Weinfurtner from the University of Nottingham in the UK, who is running his own Earth-based experiments to try and detect Hawking radiation, told The Telegraph. “Jeff has done an amazing job, but some of the claims he makes are open to debate. This is worth discussing.”
Meanwhile, a paper published in Physical Review Letters last month has found another way to strengthen the case for Hawking radiation. Physicists Chris Adami and Kamil Bradler from the University of Ottawa describe a new technique that allows them to follow a black hole’s life over time.
That’s exciting stuff, because it means that whatever information or matter that passes over the event horizon doesn’t ‘disappear’ but is slowly leaking back out during the later stages of the black hole’s evaporation.
“To perform this calculation, we had to guess how a black hole interacts with the Hawking radiation field that surrounds it,” Adami said in a press release. “This is because there currently is no theory of quantum gravity that could suggest such an interaction. However, it appears we made a well-educated guess because our model is equivalent to Hawking’s theory in the limit of fixed, unchanging black holes.”
Both results will now need to be confirmed, but they suggest that we’re inching closer to figuring out a solution for how we can confirm or disprove the existence of Hawking radiation, and that’s good news for its namesake.
As Moody points out, Peter Higgs, who predicted the existence of the Higgs boson, had to wait 49 years for his Nobel prize, we’ll have to wait and see if Hawking ends up with his own.
Drone-racing just moved to a whole new level by combining with BCI technology, resulting in a drone race controlled solely by the mind.
A NEW KIND OF RACE
The University of Florida held a fully technology-based sport: The world’s first brain-controlled drone race. Using their brainwaves, 16 pilots flew drones through an indoor course ten yards long. Both drone-racing and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are not new, but this is the first combination of the two, and it’s an efficient method of introducing BCIs to the mainstream eye.
BCI is a system that translates brain signals into commands comprehensible to output devices. Most often, this technology is used to allow individuals who are paralyzed to have control of prosthetic limbs.
HOW IT WORKS
To make this possible, electroencephalogram headsets are calibrated to an individual’s brain. The calibration is pretty much like programming commands on your keyboard for a game, where you specify that certain letters move your character up, down, left, and right. Except in this case, each person’s neuron activity is used, translated, and recorded into these commands.
Human-centered computing Phd student Chris Crawford thinks making BCIs a familiar concept to the public is a good way to spread awareness of the existence and accessibility of the technology. “With events like this, we’re popularizing the use of BCI instead of it being stuck in the research lab,” he says. “BCI was a technology that was geared specifically for medical purposes, and in order to expand this to the general public, we actually have to embrace these consumer brand devices and push them to the limit.”
University of Florida sophomore Michael Lakin, 19, uses a brain-controlled interface headset to fly a drone during a mind-controlled drone race in Gainesville, Fla.
Some experts, however, fear legal, ethical, and privacy issues. For one thing, drones are also being used by the military to kill suspected terrorists in the Middle East, and they are on the lookout for similar BCI technologies.
Kit Walsh, a staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation with a degree in neuroscience from MIT thinks people should be careful of participating in such activities. “EEG readings are similar to fingerprints: once I know what the readings look like from your brain in a certain situation,” she said. “I’ll be able to recognize you by that pattern again later on.”
E.T. was the perfect extraterrestrial: Cute, smart and — best of all — a perfect pacifist.
Unfortunately, scientists aren’t so sure that an actual intelligent alien would be so benign. In a recent interview with El País, famed physicist Stephen Hawking posited that an alien visitation would put Earthlings in the same position as Native Americans when Columbus landed on their shores.
“Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach,” Hawking speculated. [7 Huge Misconceptions About Aliens]
New research suggests we might want to widen our search for Earth-like exoplanets.
The likelihood that intelligent life is out there is up for debate; less discussed are the conditions necessary to evolve a life-form that’s both smart and nice. But the lessons from Earth suggest that intelligence and aggression might evolve hand-in-hand.
Evolving smarts
No one really knows how humans got to be so clever. What’s clear is that hominin brains began expanding wildly about 2 million years ago. (Hominins include those species after the human lineage — the genus Homo — split from the chimpanzee lineage.) By around 100,000 years ago, humans made the never-before-seen leap toinventing language. And by at least 40,000 years ago, our ancestors were making art.
“We have brains that are three times bigger than those of our closest relatives,” said Mark Flinn, an anthropologist at the University of Missouri who has researched the emergence of human intelligence. Humans have unprecedented abilities to think about each other’s thoughts and motivations, he said, to play out social scenarios in their brains and to think about the past and future.
“The general presumption is that this is just sort of a natural outcome of the evolutionary process, but that’s really giving short shrift to the very special circumstances of human evolution,” Flinn said.
Huge brains are expensive. They take an enormous number of calories to grow and function (up to 50 percent of intake in infancy and childhood, Flinn said) and make humans basically helpless for years after birth.
“Our babies are born as larvae, basically,” said David Carrier, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Utah.
Many anthropologists and evolutionary biologists have tried to pinpoint the special circumstances that make these huge brains worth the expense. Charles Darwin suggested that perhaps males developed cleverness to attract females, much as a male peacock developed showy tail feathers to prove to potential mates that he could strut his stuff. But if brains were just for sexual display, scientists would expect to see big differences between male and female intelligence — females, not having to attract mates, shouldn’t waste so much effort on their brains, much as peahens don’t waste effort on growing shiny feathers (theirs are dull and brown). And female humans are just as smart as males.
Social pressure
Would smart aliens have energy-intensive brains? Hard to say — perhaps E.T. could evolve a more efficient, yet just as clever, organ. But if aliens were sending signals into space or building rockets, they’d have to have achieved an intelligence that far exceeds what is needed to survive. [13 Ways to Hunt for Intelligent Aliens]
Humans have done the same, and researchers can’t quite figure out why. The brain could have evolved to allow humans to use tools, but chimpanzees use tools without developing complex languages, art and culture. One provocative theory holds that pathogens play a role: The brain is vulnerable to infection, wrote Hungarian researcher Lajos Rózsa in a 2008 article in the journal Medical Hypotheses. Showing off one’s cleverness may be a way of showing off how resistant one is to infection. After all, if you’re smart enough to invent language and art, you must be pretty good at battling brain parasites.
So perhaps intelligent aliens might be subject to alien parasites. Flinn and his colleagues favor another theory, though. They argue that humanity underwent a runaway cycle of brain evolution because of hominins’ social nature.
The ecological dominance-social competition hypothesis works like this: Human ancestors reached a point in which their interactions with one another were the most important factor in whether they’d survive and pass on their genes. Finding food and shelter was still important, Flinn said, but it wasn’t the main factor determining evolutionary success. The difference between clever humans and, say, caribou, is that intraspecies relationships drove evolution the fastest in humans, Flinn said. A herd of caribou has social interactions, to be sure: Males have to fight for mates, for example. But a more pressing concern would be avoiding predators and finding food. For hominins, these external issues became relatively less important, the theory goes, while their ability to form coalitions, to have empathy and to behave in such a way as to win friendships from others became key to their survival. [10 Things That Make Humans Special]
In this heavily social context, it became very important to be smarter than the competition. Each generation got a little smarter and a little better at building complex social relationships, which created a feedback loop in which even smarter brains were beneficial.
“The thing about social competition is it’s a dynamic challenge and it’s also creative,” Flinn said. “You need to have the better mousetrap every time. The competition adjusts to the current winning model, so you need to be one better than the current winning strategy.”
The model seems to work with other clever animals, too, he added. Dolphins, orcas and chimps all form social coalitions with each other and depend on their social groups to survive. It’s possible that this social factor would hold for species on other planets, too.
The evolution of aggression
A key part of this theory is competition. Chimps form coalitions that battle against other chimps. And humans are far from peaceful. So if an alien species were to evolve intelligence, would aggression be an inevitable part of the package?
“If you can walk away from a fight and reproduce another day, you do that,” he said. “But if circumstances are such that your ability to reproduce is threatened by a competitor, in that situation it makes sense to fight.”
Environmental factors may determine whether a mate-or-die system emerges. For example, chimpanzees are a particularly homicidal (chimpacidal?) species, Carrier said. Work by primatologist Richard Wrangham at Harvard University and colleagues finds that chimp “wars” arise from a chimpanzee’s territorialism. Small groups of foraging chimps may come into contact with other chimpanzees; killing these competitors (particularly when the foragers have numbers on their side) can be beneficial by opening up access to more resources.
Deadly male-male competition is less of a way of life for bonobos, humankind’s other closest primate ancestor. Male bonobos stick by their mothers and the species is less territorial than chimpanzees. Bonobo foraging groups are also larger, perhaps because their food sources are more abundant, studies have found. Would aliens act more like bonobos or chimps? Hard to say. Researchers are even split on whether humans are more inherently aggressive or inherently peaceful.
A controversial theory holds that aggression was a driving force in human evolution. The “Killer Ape” hypothesis argues that the human ancestors who thrived were those better adapted for fighting. For example, Carrier said, modern humans can form fists, which our closest primate relatives cannot. This particular hand configuration may have evolved primarily for better manual dexterity — but it also could have come in handy as a club. Likewise, when human ancestors started walking on two legs, their face bones also evolved to be stronger and less delicate. This could be due to diet, Carrier said, but male face bones are more robust than female face bones, a sign that male-male competition could be at play. In other words, thick facial bones could be a defenseagainst the fist, a weapon that would have become available once human ancestors became bipedal.
Kind aliens
If intelligence evolves in the context of social competition, and aggression is the natural outcome of competition, it’s hard to imagine that clever aliens could also be kind. Is this the end for hopes of sweet little E.T.?
Maybe not. The social competition model doesn’t work without cooperation, after all. Humans fight, wage war and sometimes murder each other. But humans also form coalitions, care for each other and even build coalitions of coalitions, such as nation-states.
“There are two sides to our nature,” Carrier said. “It’s not that one is any more real than the other. It’s just who we are.”
Humans are unique among Earth life in forming long-lasting alliances between groups, not just individuals, Flinn said. Chimpanzees can’t pull that off, he said, so it’s not clear that aliens could, either.
“On Planet X, it may not be inevitable that social competition results in a morality and a creativity of the sort that allows these intelligent life-forms to negotiate with us for a mutually beneficial outcome,” Flinn said.
On the other hand, chimpanzees don’t explore space. Perhaps a civilization that can band together to reach for the stars has to be cooperative by definition. If that’s the case, humanity might be a greater threat to aliens than aliens are to humanity. Luckily, evolution has given humans the tools for peace.
“We can, in effect, rise above the design, potentially,” Flinn said. “If we understand what our brains are designed to do, we are going to be way more capable of rising above those tendencies that we have.”
What is that thing?! Phoenix Sky Harbor employee reports UFO sighting
What is that thing?! Phoenix Sky Harbor employee reports UFO sighting

PHOENIX — A Phoenix Sky Harbor employee said he spotted an unidentified flying object flying low above the airport while he was working in March.
According to the testimony in Case 75640 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database, the massive object flew less than 500 feet overhead.
The witness reported watching a chevron-shaped UFO fly northwest over the airport while he was “disposing of trash” at about 9 p.m. on March 1.
“The lights were what I noticed at first,” the witness said in the report. “They were white and formed a chevron shape that allowed me to notice the shape of the object. It was very large as it passed beside me. I was near the tower, so I knew it was high, but not too high as for me not to get an idea how large this object was.”
The witness said he did not feel afraid. He submitted a sketch with the report to MUFON.

“I didn’t feel anything but shock as I pondered what had just taken place,” he said.
The witness said that the light near the dumpster was out and the lights on his vehicle were turned off, so “no other light source was close enough to hamper my vision.”
He said he felt calm, with no sense of danger as the massive object flew silently above.
“Just a sense of wonder and amazement that something so huge could travel in the air and not make any noise.”
Phoenix has long been a UFO hotspot in the eyes of believers.
More than 10,000 people statewide saw what many believe was a mass UFO event on March 13, 1997, known as the Phoenix Lights.
Although airport officials told Phoenix New Times that no unusual incidents were reported on the night alleged sighting, MUFON field investigators continue to look into the matter.
Proof, that the earth was inhabited by GIANTS -giant footprints!
Biblical references to giants:
Genesis 6:4– ‘There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown’.
Numbers 13:33 – ‘And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight’.
Deuteronomy 1:28 – ‘Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our heart, saying, the people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakims there’.
2:10 – ‘The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; 11 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites called them Emims’.
2:20 - References to a ‘race’ of giants who: ‘dwelt therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims; 21 A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded them, and dwelt in their stead’:
3:11 – ‘For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man’. (This bed is 6 feet wide, 14 feet long and King Og’s height is estimated at least 12 feet.)
Joshua xv. 14; Judges i. 20; and Numbers xiii. 33– ANAK, father of the Anakim. ‘The Hebrew spies said they were mere grass-hoppers in comparison with these giants’
Moments When a UFO Enters Warp Drive Seen on ISS Live Feed
Moments When a UFO Enters Warp Drive Seen on ISS Live Feed
A peculiar object appeared on the live feed of the International Space Station recently. The UFO moved in tandem with the ISS before gaining altitude and eventually disappearing into the vastness of space, leaving behind a visible beam of green light.
There are several intriguing aspects related to this sighting, and although it may not be a crystal-clear shot of an alien spaceship, the video reveals two rare (if not unique) moments. First of all, whenever such sightings occur near the station, NASA usually cuts the live transmission invoking technical difficulties. Surprisingly enough, the broadcasting remained intact this time. But was this because the UFO was nothing more than space junk, or because human error is still a characteristic thing for our species?
The second aspects involves a ray of green light that followed only moments after the bizarre UFO disappeares from line of sight. The beam appearing over the Earth is clearly visible, and numerous conspiracy theorists consider it to be related to the passing UFO.
Now, there’s a good chance that NASA resisted entering “technical difficulties” mode because the appearance wasn’t the most debatable, and it could easily be debunked as space junk or some other celestial body from our solar system. What they didn’t anticipate was the moment when the UFO entered traveling mode and inevitably left behind the green beam of light associated with warp drive – a faster than light (FTL) spacecraft propulsion system.
Hundreds of people were enjoying the view from the ISS when this happened. One of the eyewitnesses even gave a detailed description of what this moment meant for him:
“During an ISS live NASA UStream, an orb-like object appeared just above the horizon. After remaining in the same relative position for a while, it began to ascend up and out of the UStream camera lens coverage area. Once it left the screen, an energy beam shot up from the earth towards the UFO’s former location. Judging by the distance between the ISS and the location of the energy beam, the relative size of the UFO must have been enormous.”
“I am hoping that someone with technical background can determine the location from where the beam was fired based on the time of the sitting (7:25 p.m. Central European time) and the ISS live feed metering that is displayed at the bottom left of the frames in the video. The video is comprised of multiple screenshots I took during the sitting.”
After closely analyzing the video, I cannot tell if the beam of light originated from the UFO or from somewhere on Earth, but the extreme timing makes it likely to be connected in a way or another. Because the object is moving at a slightly higher speed than the ISS, together with the fact that it changes course and eventually ascends until it’s no longer seen, points towards an alien craft hypothesis. Furthermore, the brightness of the UFO insinuates that it has an artificial design made of a reflective material.
The video brings up more evidence that NASA may be in touch with other advanced species residing in the universe. If this is the case, then it could explain the massive boost in technological advancement in recent years. The possibility of certain world governments collaborating with otherworldly neighbors doesn’t seem far off after all. Whatever their plan is, and whenever they are going to reveal it to the rest of the world we are yet to find out. Hopefully, alien disclosure will happen in our lifetime.

STEEDS MEER AANWIJZIGINGEN VAN MILITAIRE ACTIES OP MARS ( VIDEO )
Om het grote publiek zoet te houden rijden er een paar primitieve karretjes met een camera rond op het Mars oppervlak.
Terwijl de Bilderbergers zoals ze worden genoemd, al tientallen jaren geleden zijn begonnen met het bouwen van hun geheime ruimtevloot.
De bedenker en maker van de Amerikaanse stripserie The Simpsons, Matt Groening, heeft ondertussen een vermogen verdiend aan de strip die inmiddels al meer dan 20 jaar draait. Er worden bedragen genoemd van 500 miljoen Dollar, maar ook gaan er hardnekkige geruchten dat hij een hooggeplaatste vrijmetselaar is.
De hoofdfiguur Homer in de serie wordt dan ook op een zeker moment lid van een geheim genootschap zoals de vrijmetselaars. Alleen heet het in de cartoon dan de stonecutters.
Na zijn inwijdingsceremonie zit hij met zijn medebroeders aan tafel te feesten en te drinken. Ook wordt er een lied gezongen waarbij ze er trots op zijn dat ze zoveel in de melk te brokkelen hebben en eigenlijk alles controleren.
Iemand die goed kijkt, ziet dat er een Marsmannetje aan tafel zit, die er eigenlijk niet thuis hoort. Ook hoor je wanneer ze hun lied zingen dat ze zeggen dat ze de Marsmannetjes onder controle hebben.
Natuurlijk hebben ze Mars en alles wat zich op die planeet bevindt volledig onder controle. Ongeveer vier jaar geledenschreven wij een artikel over de geheime ruimtevloot, waarvan navolgend een deel:
Aan het eind van de Tweede Wereldoorlog verzamelden zowel de Russen als de Amerikanen niet alleen de wetenschappers die werkten aan conventionele raketten, maar ook de vliegende schotel wetenschappers samen met veel van hun uitrusting, om tegelijkertijd zowel een conventioneel als een niet conventioneel ruimteprogramma te kunnen beginnen.
Het duurde niet zolang voordat de conventionele aandrijving begin jaren '60 overbodig werd. De aanwezige raketprogramma’s waren niets meer dan een dure propaganda-operatie voor publieke consumptie, om een fantasieverhaal levend te houden, een die al heel snel sterk afweek van het werkelijke verhaal.
Het geheime ruimteprogramma kwam onder de toenemende invloed van de wereldelite die georganiseerd was in de Bilderbergconferentie, een groep van machtige industriëlen, bankiers en Europese koninklijke families.
Het legerproject uit 1959, Project Horizon, werd in het geheim ingevoerd om zowel bases op de Maan als op Mars te bouwen. Volgens een aantal betrouwbare klokkenluiders worden deze bases gebruikt en onderhouden door de Bilderbergvloot.
Uit een vrijgegeven document van Wright Patterson kunnen we zien dat men in 1956 al bezig was met het plaatsen van nucleaire aandrijving in schotels. De senior wetenschapper van Lockheed, Boyd Bushman, liet in een interview in 1959 technische tekeningen zien van een operationele vliegende schotel, aangedreven door een nucleaire centrale.
Een technicus uit Area 51, Bill Uhouse, claimde dat hij al vroeg in de jaren '60 samengewerkt heeft met een Grey Alien in vliegende schotel simulators waarin piloten leerden vliegen met deze objecten.
In dezelfde tijdsperiode werkte een luchtmacht technicus, Charles Hall, bij Nellis en had contact met de Tall White Extraterrestrials (Grote Witte Buitenaardsen). Zij lieten hem een TW shuttle schotel van binnen zien waarmee je naar de Maan en naar Mars kon reizen, maar niet dieper de ruimte in. Deze schotel had logo’s van alle grote lucht- en ruimtevaartbedrijven in het interieur van de schotel.
Er was een ongeluk met een door kernenergie aangedreven schotel in 1980 waarbij een lekkage ontstond in een reactorvat. Terwijl de schotel was omringd door drie militaire helikopters kregen drie personen de volle laag straling over zich heen. Deze zaak is uiteindelijk tot in het Congres gekomen, zonder enige vorm van compensatie voor de slachtoffers.
Ongeveer 10 jaar geleden slaagde de Engelsman Gary McKinnon erin om de computers van NASA te hacken en ontdekte de code naam “Solar Warden” en roosters voor alle buitenaardse officieren en lijsten met rompnummers van de grote ruimteschepen, groter dan twee voetbalvelden, en hun kleinere beschermers. Maar, vier jaar voordat McKinnon zijn ontdekking deed werd er op het Open Mind Forum al gesproken over Solar Warden en ook dat de Bilderbergers eigenaar zouden zijn van die bewuste ruimtevloot.
Alle bestaande ruimteprogramma’s dienen om de bevolking zand in de ogen te strooien. De Solar Warden vloot bestond in 2005 uit acht grote ruimteschepen, vergelijkbaar met vliegkampschepen, en 43 “beschermers”, wat natuurlijk ook ruimteschepen zijn.
Voor het publiek is er een soort ruimteprogramma voor dummies, waarbij een paar primitieve karretjes door het Marslandschap tuffen en foto’s maken, waarop regelmatig dingen voorkomen die volgens het script niet kunnen.
Uiteraard zijn er complete militaire bases op Mars en daardoor kom je regelmatig zaken tegen die thuis horen in een militaire omgeving zoals je kunt zien aan een aantal recente ontdekkingen in de volgende video.
Naast voorwerpen wordt het natuurlijk ook steeds moeilijker om constructies zoals gebouwen buiten beeld te houden. Of een toren zoals in de volgende ontdekking enkele dagen geleden.
VIDEO: Alien-jagers claimen dat er gebouwen zijn op Venus
VIDEO: Alien-jagers claimen dat er gebouwen zijn op Venus
Volgens alien-jagers is er leven op Venus. In een 20 minuten durend filmpje op YouTube analyseert mundodesconocido foto’s die door NASA-sonde Magellan van de planeet zijn gemaakt. Dat meldt FoxNews.
Van een aantal objecten die hij ontdekte, heeft hij een 3D-model gemaakt. Onder de video schrijft mundodesconocido dat de afbeeldingen ‘enorme steden en kunstmatige structuren tonen die lijken te zijn gebouwd door een buitenaards ras dat de tweede planeet in ons zonnestelsel heeft bewoond of gekoloniseerd’.
Magellan werd op 4 mei 1989 gelanceerd en kwam op 10 augustus 1990 aan bij Venus. De ruimtesonde bracht het planeetoppervlak nauwkeurig in kaart met behulp van radar. Het was de opvolger van de Pioneer Venus.
Hoewel Venus ook wel de ‘tweelingzuster’ of ‘zusterplaneet’ van de aarde wordt genoemd, komt er volgens de NASA in tegenstelling tot de aarde geen platentektoniek voor op de planeet. Magellan onthulde ook dat tenminste 85 procent van het oppervlak van Venus is bedekt met vulkanen. De gemiddelde temperatuur is er zo’n 480 graden Celcius.
Op 13 oktober 1994 verbrandde Magellan in de Venusiaanse dampkring.
This is fantastic news. UFOaustralia site (not up yet) has been gathering UFO gov reports and getting them ready online for readers to go through them. These reports are very important, because it shows that the government in Australia was taking the matter seriously, meaning...they know that aliens exist. Not all UFO reports turn out to be UFOs, but are often other things. So, how to tell what reports are real or not? 1. The more detail in the report, the easier it is to decide if its real or not. 2. Photos or video help tremendously. 3. Eyewitness professions/jobs. 4. Movement of the UFO. (Very important) 5. Number of witnesses, the more the bigger chance its real. 6. The more blacked out lines (sentences covered up with black marker) the bigger the chance of it being real. 7. If photos were mentioned, but mission from the report, its probably real. Gov will often destroy before releasing document.
News states: Queensland UFO Sightings And Research are about to release the biggest collection of official Australian UFO files ever. The files contain official documents from the RAAF, The Department of Air, The Navy and more. The files contain testimony, photographs, newspaper scans, official reports and patents. The full 1.7GB download will be available to the public via our website on May 1st 2016. You might see some familiar names.
Jim Marrs: What Is The Government Hiding About Aliens and UFO’s
Jim Marrs: What Is The Government Hiding About Aliens and UFO’s
In this video Luke Rudkowski interviews Jim Marrs, an American newspaper journalist and New York Times best-selling author. The two discuss the best evidence for extraterrestrial life and the history of government cover ups on this topic. We not only go over the government’s actions but actually evidence with whistleblowers and official government documents.
As most people may already know, Hillary Clinton has been in New York on Monday for her presidential campaign. While visiting East Harlem, she had an interview with the Power 105.1 Breakfast Club. One of the hosts suspects aliens may have been abducted him. He asked Hillary if she was indeed serious about telling the truth on UFOs. Hillary answered positively.
Clinton has confirmed many times in her previous interviews that she will try to declassify files on UFOs if elected as president. However, she made it clear she did not want to release any records that were kept secret due to national security.
While she isn’t sure about extraterrestrial UFOs, Clinton does think that some stories about the subject are true. She believes that people see things, but what they see, she doesn’t know. Clinton believes that the government should try to give people information.
Clinton just keeps discussing UFOs when asked and this attitude has caused a lot of debates. Typical politicians usually not serious about the subject and some even make a joke of it. However, Hillary has repeatedly answered questions about it confidently and promised to look into the issue. Former President Bill Clinton, her husband, had said that he looked into the matter and did not find anything.
Some think that Hillary has no interest in UFOs and just want to get the votes from UFO believers. The National Geographic survey in 2012 showed that 36 percent of Americans think that ETs have visited Earth, and 80 percent believe the U.S. government kept the truth secret from the public.
Het meer zou zo’n 100 bij 10 kilometer groot zijn en is daarmee maar ietsje kleiner dan het beroemde Vostokmeer: het grootste meer dat onder het ijs van Antarctica verstopt zit.
Wetenschappers kwamen het meer op het spoor toen ze satellietbeelden van het oostelijke deel van Antarctica bekeken. Op de beelden was te zien dat in het ijs groeven zaten die wel vaker boven subglaciale meren worden aangetroffen. In januari concludeerden onderzoekers al dat hier een 1000 kilometer lange vallei onder het ijs verborgen moet zitten. Toen al vermoedden onderzoekers dat de vallei verbonden was met een nog onontdekt subglaciaal meer.
Meer En tijdens een bijeenkomst van de European Geosciences Union heeft onderzoeker Martin Siegert nu laten weten sterke aanwijzingen te hebben dat er inderdaad een nog onontdekt meer onder het ijs verborgen zit. Het meer zou zo’n 100 bij 10 kilometer groot zijn en is daarmee maar ietsje kleiner dan het grootste subglaciale meer van Antarctica: het Vostokmeer.
De groeven in het ijs en het vermoedelijke meer.

Radar Siegert benadrukt dat het bestaan van het meer nog bevestigd moet worden. Om dat te kunnen doen, moeten radargolven door het ijs worden gejaagd. Siegert vertelt aan Scientias.nl dat een internationaal team van onderzoekers de benodigde gegevens recent heeft verzameld. “We zullen deze binnenkort gaan bestuderen.”
Verstopt Als er daadwerkelijk een meer onder het ijs zit, heeft het zich heel lang voor ons verborgen weten te houden. Toch is dat niet zo gek, vertelt Siegert. “Voor we dit onderzoek deden, wisten we niets over dit gebied.” Wachten ons in de toekomst nog meer van dit soort grote ontdekkingen op Antarctica? Siegert denkt van niet. “Dit is het laatste onverkende gebied.”
Wat bevindt zich onder het ijs van Antarctica? We krijgen er een steeds beter beeld van. Maar op deze afbeelding is goed te zien dat Princes Elizabeth Land (waar het vermoedelijke meer zich bevindt) nog onontgonnen gebied is.

Vostokmeer en leven Wetenschappers zijn zeer geïnteresseerd in subglaciale meren op Antarctica. Ze zijn vaak bedekt met kilometers ijs en al vele millennia van de buitenwereld afgesloten. Maar onderzoek naar het Vostokmeer heeft al aangetoond dat dat niet wil zeggen dat er in deze meren geen leven mogelijk is. In het Vostokmeer zijn bijvoorbeeld tal van organismen aangetroffen. Het vertelt ons dat het leven op aarde veel meer kan hebben dan gedacht en dat heeft ook weer implicaties voor het leven op andere hemellichamen, bijvoorbeeld op de maan Enceladus die beschikt over een wereldwijde oceaan die bedekt is met een dikke laag ijs.
Het is niet ondenkbaar dat er ook in het meer dat onderzoekers nu denken ontdekt te hebben, leven is. Zodra het bestaan van het meer bevestigd is, is het volgens Siegert dan ook heel aannemelijk dat de jacht op eventueel leven in dat meer geopend wordt.
Herschel maakt schitterende foto's van stervormingsgebieden
Herschel maakt schitterende foto's van stervormingsgebieden
Tim Kraaijvanger
Europese wetenschappers hebben beelden gepubliceerden van stervormingsgebieden in de Melkweg. De foto’s zijn gemaakt door de Herschel-telescoop, die in 2013 zijn laatste adem uitblies.
De foto’s zijn in de periode van 2009 tot 2013 gemaakt op ver-infrarode en submillimetergolflengten. Hierdoor zijn de koudste objecten in het heelal zichtbaar, zoals kosmisch stof. Dit kosmische stof maakt deel uit van het interstellaire materiaal, waaruit nieuwe sterren worden geboren. Kortom: op de nieuwe beelden zie je sterren geboren worden.
De foto’s zijn gemaakt in het kader van de Herschel Infrared Galactic Plane Survey, een onderzoek waarvoor de telescoop uiteindelijk 900 uur is gebruikt. In totaal is twee procent van de gehele hemel in kaart gebracht, waaronder een groot deel van de volledige schijf van de Melkweg. Hier huizen immers de meeste jonge sterren die vanaf de aarde te zien zijn.
De onderstaande beelden liegen er niet om. Er zijn gaspilaren zichtbaar met knopen van gas en stof. In deze gloeiende knopen ontstaan nieuwe sterren. “Deze foto’s zijn niet alleen fantastisch om te zien, maar vormen ook een rijke databron voor astronomen om de verschillende stervormingsfases in ons sterrenstelsel te bestuderen”, legt onderzoeker Sergio Molinari uit.
De beroemde Adelaarsnevel (M16).
RCW 120: een emissienevel op ruim 4.000 lichtjaar van de aarde. De ster – niet zichtbaar op deze foto – heeft een bel om zich heen geblazen.
Op deze foto heeft Herschel zijn ogen gericht op het centrum van de Melkweg. Een drukke bedoeling!
Links zie je de emissienevel NGC 6357, rechts is de nevel NGC 6334 – de Kattenpootnevel – zichtbaar.
De ruwe data zijn te downloaden via het zogenoemde ESA Herschel wetenschappelijke archief. Het gaat hier om in totaal zeventig kaarten. Eind dit jaar kunnen onderzoekers een tweede bundel met gegevens verwachten.
Het is slim van de Europese ruimtevaartorganisatie om niet alleen de ruwe gegevens, maar ook de foto’s bij te voegen. Hierdoor zijn de interessante objecten direct zichtbaar. “Astronomen kunnen vervolgens objecten kiezen, die nader bestudeerd moeten worden”, zegt projectwetenschapper Göran Pilbratt.
Het mysterie rond het vreemde object dat op de bodem van de Oostzee ligt
Het mysterie rond het vreemde object dat op de bodem van de Oostzee ligt
Toen het mysterieuze object op de bodem van de Oostzee voor het eerst werd gespot, stonden veel experts voor een raadsel. Tot op de dag van vandaag weet niemand wat het precies is.
Het object doet denken aan een ruimteschip uit een Star Wars-film. Het is in 2011 ontdekt door de Zweedse schatzoekers Peter Lindberg en Dennis Asberg. Duikers die de structuur van dichtbij probeerden te bekijken zeiden dat hun apparatuur uitviel.
Duiker Stefan Hogerborn zei: “Alle elektrische apparaten, inclusief de satelliettelefoon, vielen uit toen we ons recht boven het object bevonden. Zo’n 200 meter bij het object vandaan deed de apparatuur het wel, maar toen we teruggingen viel alles weer uit.”
Niet in de natuur
Veel media besteedden aandacht aan het 60 meter brede en acht meter hoge cirkelvormige object. Volgens sommigen was het een reusachtige paddenstoel. Anderen dachten aan een gezonken Russisch schip of een buitenaards ruimteschip.
Geoloog Steve Weiner concludeerde op basis van monsters die door duikers waren verzameld dat het geen natuurlijke formatie kon zijn. Na analyse van de fragmenten zei hij dat de materialen bestonden uit ‘metalen die niet in de natuur voorkomen’.
UFO
Sommige experts denken dat het een onderdeel is van een oorlogsschip, terwijl anderen menen dat het om een UFO gaat. Hoogleraar geologie Volker Bruchert van de Universiteit van Stockholm zei: “Mijn hypothese is dat dit object, deze structuur, duizenden jaren geleden is gevormd tijdens de IJstijd.”
Maar Lindberg en Asberg zeiden dat de monsters die ze hebben laten analyseren, niet van het object zelf afkomstig zijn, maar uit de omgeving van het object. Het begint erop te lijken dat niemand verder onderzoek naar het object in de Oostzee wil financieren. Het blijft dus de vraag wat daar verborgen ligt.
RUIMTESCHIP MARDUK VOOR KUST VAN CALIFORNIA EN MEXICO? ( VIDEO )
RUIMTESCHIP MARDUK VOOR KUST VAN CALIFORNIA EN MEXICO? ( VIDEO )
Op een aantal plaatsen langs de kustlijn tussen Los Angeles en voorbij de Mexicaanse grens is er enkele dagen geleden een merkwaardig grote UFO gesignaleerd.
Voor de kust van Los Angeles zijn er sporen ontdekt van een buitenaardse onderwater basis en onder de stad schijnt zich een Reptielenstad te bevinden.
Steeds vaker worden verbanden tussen ogenschijnlijk separate gebeurtenissen zichtbaar. Ook nu.
Er is de laatste tijd opmerkelijk veel publiciteit rondom de Anunnaki god Marduk en uiteraard ook de planeet Nibiru.
Volgens de legende is Marduk een Anunnaki (Anakem of Nephilim), een Luceferiaans duivels wezen die tevens de vertegenwoordiger is van de inter-dimensionale zwarte planeet Nibiru, het hemellichaam wat niet zichtbaar is voor astronomen.
In de vorige afleveringen heb ik voorzichtig enkele profielen geschetst van de Anunnaki. Van hun uiterlijk... en kom ik tot de conclusie dat deze wezens, anders dan Zecharia Sitchin meent en aanneemt, minder menselijk zijn en meer reptielachtig.
In 2013 schreven wij een artikel over hoe er al tientallen jaren geruchten de ronde doen over een Reptielenstad onder Los Angeles.
Een stukje uit dat eerdere artikel:
In The Los Angeles Times van 29 januari 1934 stond het fascinerende verhaal van mijn-ingenieur Warren Shufelt.
Er was hem een verhaal verteld door een wijze oude Hopi Indiaan over een ondergrondse reptielenstad vol met schatten.
Shufelt had deze stad weten te lokaliseren door middel van Röntgenstralen en was op dat moment, in januari 1934, bezig met het aanbrengen van schachten om deze stad te kunnen bereiken.
Zo zag het artikel in de krant er uit op die dag in 1934:
Wat wel leuk is en niets met het verhaal als zodanig te maken heeft is dat de eindredactie van de L.A. Times op die dag goed heeft zitten slapen, want er zit een behoorlijke spelfout in het woord “people” in de titel.
Terug naar het echte verhaal. Een interessant gegeven wat misschien ook in onze huidige tijd relevant is is dat de legende waarop het onderzoek van Shufelt was gebaseerd, zegt dat er door de Reptielenmensen ongeveer vier- tot vijfduizend jaar geleden een ondergrondse stad was gegraven na “de grote ramp” die de aarde destijds had getroffen.
Deze zou hebben plaatsgevonden in de vorm van een “grote tong van vuur” die uit het Zuid Westen kwam en die alles wat op haar pad kwam vernietigde. Hierna besloot men om een ondergrondse stad te bouwen om aan toekomstige gebeurtenissen zoals deze te kunnen ontsnappen.
Zo is er een serieuze wetenschappelijke theorie die stelt dat er in het verleden een inslag is geweest van een meteoor die een geweldig vuur/brand in de atmosfeer tot gevolg had. Dit strekte zich uit van Californië tot Europa waardoor een groot deel van het ijs op het Noordelijk Halfrond smolt en in de oceanen terechtkwam. Het gevolg hiervan was dat de gehele waterstromen op aarde uit balans raakten wat weer heftige klimaatveranderingen veroorzaakte (ijstijd).
De legende gaat verder over hoe deze reptielmensen krachtige chemicaliën gebruikten om een netwerk van ondergrondse tunnels en ruimten te maken in plaats van deze te moeten graven. Ze werden aangelegd op hogere en lagere niveaus. De lagere tunnels kwamen uit bij de oceaan en middels eb en vloed kwam daar dagelijks water waardoor automatisch verse lucht naar de hogere tunnels werd gestuwd.
En verder:
De legende van de Hopi Indiaan schijnt in ieder geval te wijzen op een echt gebeurde ramp in het verleden. Werden deze inslagen van meteroren veroorzaakt door een vorige passage van Nibiru? Ook nu zijn er veel aanwijzingen dat deze Red Kachina (planeet X, Nibiru) wederom in de buurt is en hebben we te maken met een sterke toename van het aantal objecten uit de ruimte.
Een jaar na bovenstaand artikel schrijven wij over een bizarre onderwaterbasis die wordt ontdekt voor de kust van Los Angeles.
Onlangs werd er via een het Amerikaanse radiostation, Dark Matter Radio, een bizarre ontdekking bekend gemaakt.
Het betreft een gigantische onderwater ingang net voor de kust van Malibu bij wat men noemt Point Dume. Het is een soort plateaustructuur van ongeveer 2,2 bij 4 kilometer. Het bevindt zich op een afstand van precies 6,66 mijl (10,7 kilometer) vanaf de kust.
De breedte tussen de pilaren is 837 meter en de hoogte daarvan is 192 meter. Het dak van het plateau is 150 meter dik en lijkt zelfs bestand tegen nucleaire explosies. Het geheel bevindt zich op een diepte van 450 meter onder water.
De streek rond Malibu is al jarenlang een “hotspot” voor ufo’s en ook al jarenlang doen er verhalen de ronde over een ondergrondse buitenaardse basis voor de kust. Is dit dan misschien eindelijk de oplossing voor dit raadsel? De ingang is groot genoeg voor grote ruimteschepen en eventueel ook nucleaire onderzeeërs.
Al vanaf de jaren vijftig worden er met grote regelmaat ufo’s waargenomen in dit deel van Californië. In de jaren zeventig was het de gewoonte van veel gezinnen om als uitje naar Point Dume te gaan om daar de veelkleurige ufo’s onder water te zien verdwijnen.
Afgelopen week wordt op diverse plaatsen langs de kust een zeer grote merkwaardige UFO waargenomen.
Dit gebeurt zowel in het Amerikaanse San Diego als het Mexicaanse Tijuana en wel op dezelfde dag, in de avond van 18 april 2016.
Om even een idee te geven hoe het er daar ook alweer uitziet, navolgend een kaart met daarop Los Angeles, San Diego en Tijuana.
In beide plaatsen zagen mensen ongetwijfeld hetzelfde object. In eerste instanties lijkt het op meerdere UFO’s, maar bij nader onderzoek blijkt het om één schip te gaan.
De eerste afbeelding laat zien hoe de mensen in Mexico het object zagen en de tweede die in San Diego.
Hieronder volgen de twee video -opnames, de eerste uit Tijuana en de tweede uit San Diego.
Wanneer je een beetje luistert naar de mensen in de achtergrond en je ziet dit enorme object hangen, laag boven het water, dan krijg je een beetje het Independence Day gevoel.
In de tweede video krijg je pas een indruk hoe groot dit object is, wanneer je ook een vliegtuig hoog in de lucht ziet.
Nibiru en de Anunnaki die er waarschijnlijk uitzien als Reptielen, gecombineerd met de Reptielenstad en de ondergrondse tunnels die leiden naar de oceaan met daarin iets wat lijkt op enorme onderwaterbasis.
Vervolgens op ongeveer dezelfde locatie verschijnt een enorm (ruimte)schip dat in verschillende steden en zelfs landen wordt waargenomen.
Is het dan vergezocht om te veronderstellen dat Marduk even een bezoekje komt brengen aan de ondergrondse Reptielenstad, via de onderwaterbasis voor de kust van Malibu?

Witness report:
Had sensing to take dog outside– had to wake him. Seems craft would have been right over me at that time. Rectangular with 10 lights in 2 columns of 2 -front 2 white blinking didn’t appear to be strobe, and other 8 multi colors strady on blue, red, yellow, green …?? While trying to determine if 8 or 10 lights, another craft appeared also rectangular but only 8 lights not multi colored but would go totally black for several seconds – only saw it 2x. Travelling WNW from MIA? Into/across wind, flying too fast for blimps ( such as if lit up underneath) too slow for normal jets… Not enough sound ( if any) for choppers flying any panels of lights to someplace ( direction Eglin?) No “wingtip lights” of red/ green” unable to determine altitude due to unknown actual size. But if ‘ usual’ plane altitude after TO 2 mile ‘down range’ less than 2 mi alt. perhaps? At one point I thought I saw a large light grey disk above it(attached) 3x size of rectangular light ‘panel’ but could be trick of mind/eye as low clouds were moving in and moon light subdued. Called someone immediately who knows ac had worked avionics 40 years and he had no idea. Tweeted later if anyone had seen it also but no replies.
New runway has caused many ac to fly right over at low altitudes for many months. Jets fly low after buzzing sunlife stadium, blimps for games often around..Am close to smaller ap where planes dive in and out picking up dropping banners– but never at night. (North Perry) Used to live ‘at’ HAFB and saw low flying stealth before made public ( it was viewing downrange flight of shuttle liftoff at night) .10 yrs CAP-USAF scanner. Never seen anything like this. Only photoes by iphone are garbage but show squarish blobs of light.
