Mysterious 'Haloes' on Pluto Puzzle Scientists
Mysterious 'Haloes' on Pluto Puzzle Scientists
By Tariq Malik, Space.com Managing Editor
Strange "haloed" craters can be seen on Pluto in these images of the dwarf planet from NASA's New Horizons spacecraft. Dozens of the strange craters are visible in the black-and-white view (top), while the lower view shows strange methane ice (in purple) around the craters, with water ice (in blue) inside and around them.

The discovery of strange halo-like craters on Pluto has raised a new mystery about how the odd scars formed on the icy world.
Pluto's "halo" craters are clearly visible in a new image from NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, which made the first-ever flyby of the dwarf planet in July 2015. In the image, a black-and-white view reveals dozens of ringed craters (NASA describes these formations as "haloed") strewn across the dark landscape of Vega Terra, a region in the far western reaches of the hemisphere photographed by New Horizons during its flyby. The craters have bright walls and rims, making them stand out from their darker surroundings.
A glimpse at the craters provided by New Horizons' Ralph/Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array revealed a surprising connection between the bright halo features and the distribution of methane ice, NASA officials explained in an image description. This methane ice around the craters shows up as a deep purple in an inset view included in the new image. The crater floors and in-between regions, meanwhile, are colored blue to indicate water ice.
"Exactly why the bright methane ice settles on these crater rims and walls is a mystery; also puzzling is why this same effect doesn't occur broadly across Pluto," NASA officials wrote in the image description.
Pluto : How Well Do You Know the Dwarf Planet?
Pluto, the most famous dwarf planet in our solar system, underwent a well-publicized (and somewhat controversial) reclassification that took away its title as the ninth and most distant planet from the sun. So, how well do you know this fascinating world?
So that's yet another mystery for scientists to ponder as the images and data continue to beam back to Earth from New Horizon's Pluto flyby on July 14, 2015. Mission scientists have said the probe's data download should be complete by October or November.
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft launched in 2006 and is currently headed out into the Kuiper Belt, a region of icy bodies beyond the orbit of Neptune. Last week, mission scientists submitted a proposal for an extended mission that, if approved, would send the probe by the Kuiper Belt object 2014 MU69 on Jan. 1, 2019.
In an astonishing new video from Brazil, a glowing ball of light appears next to a massive storm cloud and hovers amidst its lightning bolts before slowing disappearing.
According to the man who captured the footage, he and his friend saw the storm approaching during the daylight hours and had an eerie feeling about the oncoming weather.
Thirty minutes later, they spotted the odd ball of light near the storm and decided to film the anomaly.
The 'UFO' seems to float in one spot on the edge of the storm cloud for about three minutes and then simply vanishes.
Some have suggested that the phenomenon in the footage is ball lighting, but others argue against that possibility due to the object's stationary position and fairly long duration.
UFO researchers theorize that the scene is another indication of the phenomenon's interest in our planet's weather, noting similar incidents where object were seemingly caught observing storms.
That said, we also cannot rule out that these anomalies are natural byproducts of the storms that science has yet to fully understand because the phenomenon is so fleeting.
Check out the video and decide for yourself whether the object is an ET craft or merely something from here on Earth.

MYSTERIOUS GREEN LIGHT ‘UFO’ SEEN ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SKIES WAS AREA 51 ALIEN CRAFT CRASHING WHILE UNDERGOING USAF FLIGHT-TESTING, ACCORDING TO UFO HUNTER [VIDEO]
MYSTERIOUS GREEN LIGHT ‘UFO’ SEEN ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SKIES WAS AREA 51 ALIEN CRAFT CRASHING WHILE UNDERGOING USAF FLIGHT-TESTING, ACCORDING TO UFO HUNTER [VIDEO]
Thousands of people sighted a mysterious bright green and orb-shaped light that streaked across the skies of Southern California on Tuesday night, April 26, 2016, between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. The unexpected aerial display was reported by people living hundreds of miles apart in San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties and as far as Bakersfield in Kern County.
Although experts said that the object was most likely a meteor, a UFO blogger claims controversially that based on his experience of similar incidents in the past while living in Needles, San Bernardino County, in California, he was forced to conclude that Tuesday’s “green light UFO” was an alien craft, or a reverse-engineered replica of an alien craft, that crashed while undergoing USAF flight testing as part of reverse-engineering R&D efforts.
Incredible Moment Shows Fireball (Meteor) caught on DashCamera in Southern California (April 26)
Residents in several cities and communities across Southern California were baffled about the sighting, and questions about the nature of the object sparked debates on social media, including Reddit.
Witnesses snapped pictures and took videos later uploaded online. Several witnesses contacted KTLA-TV, giving reports and submitting images and videos of the green fireball.
Dash cam footage of the mysterious green light was captured in Los Angeles, and it has gone viral online (see above). Many residents expressed astonishment at the size and brightness of the object and described the sight as “spectacular.”
A witness told the San Diego-Union Tribune that the fireball was “[v]ery large, very bright, fast moving vivid green ball followed by a shockingly orange/yellow fire tail.”
“I’ve never seen anything that large, that fast, or that close explode out of the sky,” the witness added. “We almost crashed while driving, we were in such disbelief.”
“Saw it from Point Loma. It was pretty big!”
“I also saw, can confirm, was spectacular.”
“Brightest and most consistent trail I’ve ever seen. ”
“The way the tail sparkled I thought it was really big fireworks.”
The San Diego-Union Tribune reports that the American Meteor Society received more than 60 reports of the fireball as it blazed over the city at about 9:39 p.m.
According to CBS Los Angeles, a spokesperson for the U.S. Strategic Command said the object did not correspond with any of the thousands of man-made space objects being tracked by the command, and thus, it was probably not a man-made object or space junk making re-entry into the atmosphere.
KTLA reports that Dr. Ed Krupp, the director of the Griffith Observatory, said the object was very likely a piece of “interplanetary debris” (that is, a space rock) that entered the Earth’s atmosphere and began glowing brightly after heating up due to friction in contact with the Earth’s dense atmosphere.

Green Light Seen Over Southern California Believed To Be Meteor
A green light that streaked across the night sky that was seen from the Mexican border to Central California was apparently a meteor or some other heavenly body falling to Earth.

He added that the object burned up completely in the air. He said that meteors burning up in the air after impact with the Earth’s atmosphere were not uncommon. They happen regularly, but most incidents go unnoticed.
Some suggested that the fireball was part of the Lyrid meteor shower that peaked last Friday. Gizmodo, for instance, pointed out that Lyrid meteor fireballs tend to be explosive. The color of light emitted by a meteor depends on the type of metal atoms the meteor is composed of. Meteors consisting mainly of magnesium atoms tend to emit a blue-green light, while those composed of sodium atoms emit orange-yellow light.
Mysterious Green Light Streaks Across Southern California Night Sky

However, alien and UFO conspiracy theorists view the incident from a different and unique perspective. UFO Sightings Daily editor Scott C. Waring believes the mysterious green light was an alien craft crashing to Earth.
He claims that his take on Tuesday’s incident was based on past experience. According to Waring, while living in Needles, California, in 2008, residents witnessed a green, glowing, and oval UFO that crashed at a site near the town. Residents later saw government agents in black helicopters and two “Janet planes” rush to the crash site to retrieve the alien craft.
The term “Janet” refers to USAF passenger planes based at the McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, which are used to transport government employees and military officials to and from Area 51.
Waring claimed that Tuesday’s green UFO was the same type as the green and oval alien craft that residents of Needles witnessed crashing in May 2008. He claims that alien crafts and reverse-engineered replicas in the hands of the USAF sometimes crash while being tested as part of reverse-reengineering efforts.

According to Waring, “Janet planes” carrying scientists from Area 51 must have been rushed to an airstrip nearest to the crash site to retrieve the UFO before anyone saw it.
He said alien crafts in the hands of government agencies and the USAF often crash during attempts to fly them, probably because USAF scientists, engineers, and technicians are unfamiliar with alien propulsion technology.
Such crafts have to be retrieved hastily by military specialists in black helicopters, backed by teams of government scientists transported to an airstrip nearest to the crash site in “Janet planes,” according to the UFO blogger.
A couple driving through Nevada near the top secret Area 51 were shocked to see a huge plum of dark smoke that appeared to be in the shape of a mushroom cloud rising in the vicinity of the base.
Jimmy and Jackie were driving to the base the US government confirmed existed in 2013, and while approaching from Groom Road, they spotted the smoke.
In a video filmed of the incident that happened in 2012, but was just recently shared to YouTube, Jimmy can be heard saying: 'We are still driving down groom road here and we noticed that there is like weird smoke over here. What could be going on?'

A couple driving through Nevada near Area 51 were shocked to see a huge plum of dark smoke that appeared to be in the shape of a mushroom cloud rising in the vicinity of the base.
Jimmy and Jackie were driving to the base the US government confirmed existed in 2013 and while approaching from Groom Road they spotted the smoke. They filmed video of their drive that took place in 2012
Jimmy then states that he's not sure 'what's going on,' but says they're not going to stop and will keep driving.
'What the hell is that?' he asks. 'A fire?'
Jackie can be heard replying 'yeah,' as the video shows them traveling towards the mysterious smoke.
The couple, who is never pictured on camera, finally gets near the main gate, which has warning signs not to cross.
They noticed what appears to be a white security jeep that was parked on a hill reportedly monitoring them.
'They're watching us up there,' Jimmy says while aiming that camera at the parked white SUV.
The couple then approaches a group of four people who were also watching the dark smoke billowing.

The video then jumps ahead to the couple back in the car driving away from the base, as the camera is aimed at the 'big cloud' before concluding.
Earlier in April, Hillary Clinton promised to investigate and declassify government files on UFOs and make them available to the public.
'I would like to go into those files and, hopefully, make as much of that public as possible,' Clinton said Jimmy Kimmel Live!
'If there's nothing there, let's tell people there's nothing there. If there something there, unless it's a threat to national security, I think we ought to share it with the public.'
Apercevoir soucoupes volantes et aliens a constitué, pendant plusieurs décennies, une forme culturelle spontanée, sous-produit des récits de science-fiction, d’espionnage et de conquête spatiale, à l’existence fantomatique. Croyance populaire basée sur la rumeur, elle a toujours présenté les caractéristiques d’une sous-culture dépourvue d’autorité, illustrée notamment par l’extrême variabilité de ses manifestations.
Une des preuves de son statut illusoire est la nature de sa mobilisation au sein des productions culturelles. De la même façon que les représentations religieuses n’existent que dans des œuvres qui partagent ou véhiculent la croyance, la présence de soucoupes ou d’aliens n’est tolérée qu’au sein de récits thématiques précisément définis par cette spécialisation. En d’autres termes, il n’y a pas de soucoupes dans les romans policiers ou les histoires d’amour, mais seulement dans les sous-genres correspondants de la SF – une relégation qui limite leur existence aux marges de la fiction.
Du moins jusqu’à la seconde saison de Fargo (Noah Hawley), série télévisée américaine déclinée à partir du film des frères Coen, diffusée l’hiver dernier sur la chaîne FX, et disponible en France sur Netflix. Sombre histoire de guerre des gangs sur fond de Midwest enneigé, ce feuilleton de dix épisodes comprend en effet deux séquences où apparaissent des soucoupes volantes, dont la présence influe sur le cours des événements, ainsi que quelques autres allusions éparses.
Le caractère incongru de ce Deus ex machina et l’absence de toute explication ou de tout lien entre un contexte extraterrestre et une intrigue policière menée tambour battant a soulevé les interrogations des spectateurs et de la critique. Certains sont allés chercher dans la filmographie des frères Coen (en particulier The Man Who Wasn’t There) la motivation de cette mystérieuse irruption. Mais sa principale explication relève de la dimension contextuelle.
La série est supposée se dérouler en 1979, qui est l’année d’un témoignage célèbre de la vision d’une soucoupe par un policier, à la frontière du Minnesota et du Dakota du Nord, lieu de l’action. De façon plus générale, l’allusion extraterrestre participe de l’évocation d’une atmosphère typique, située quelques années après Rencontres du troisième type (1977) ou Star Wars (1977), dans un film aux reconstitutions particulièrement soignées.
Autrement dit, les soucoupes de Fargo sont pour la première fois mobilisées en-dehors du genre de la science-fiction, au titre de ce que Roland Barthes appelait l’«effet de réel1», le détail qui fait vrai, renvoyant à un contexte extérieur à l’intrigue. La croyance soucoupique faisant partie du décor du Midwest de la fin des années 1970, elle y apparaît au même titre qu’une Imperial LeBaron ou une Corvair d’époque, comme la marque d’une ambiance caractéristique. Il s’agit d’une des premières utilisations du motif extraterrestre en tant que référence culturelle ordinaire, témoignage de la revalorisation des formes de culture populaire par le prisme de la dimension historique.

An international team of scientists announced this week that they have discovered learning behaviors in colonies of single-celled organisms. The study, published in The Proceedings of Royal Society B, outlines how the slime mold Physarum polycephalum has been observed to change behaviors in response to stimuli and repeat those behaviors later.
Physarum polycephalum
For this experiment, researchers placed a small number of Physarum polycephalum cells in a petri dish across from a food source for the slime to move towards. Next, the researchers placed a small amount of a bitter substance such as quinine or caffeine across the middle of the dish. The slime reacted by moving around the bittering agent through a narrow path the researchers left for it. The next time food was placed opposite the slime, the organism took the same route through the narrow path it previously took to avoid the bittering agent.
The same slime mold has been observed in previous studies to solve simple computational problems or even find solutions to classic “minimal length” problems in mazes. A 2008 Japanese study even found that Physarum polycephalum has a very primitive form of memory, and can anticipate future stimuli. One of the researchers in that study, Toshiyuki Nakagaki, argues that the many-headed slime challenges many of our notions about single-celled organisms:
The organism is able to remember periodic changes that it has not experienced before. This indicates that the organism has a generalized capacity for learning
Physarum polycephalum is typically found growing on decaying leaves or tree trunks and has a yellowish, slimy appearance. Its name in Latin literally means “many-headed slime,” and the name might give some clues as to how the organism displays learning-like behaviors. While it is theorized that the individual cells within this slime mold might be able to share information about stimuli, the specific mechanism that enables these behaviors is still unknown.
Physarum polycephalum “navigating” a maze
The study of this slime mold sheds light on how information sharing works at the cellular level and could potentially lead to discoveries about how learning evolved into the forms of intelligence seen in higher order organisms. So, outdoorsmen and women, the next time you see slime growing up the side of a tree, remember to be courteous – it could be learning from you.

Many people are interested in what's really up there in the night sky, and now, new software promises to help people keep an eye out for the unknown. UFO Detector, as it's been named, is a computer software program designed to help individuals monitor the sky (day and night) for unidentified flying objects.
The idea is simple — if a UFO is detected, the software will automatically record video of the event in the best possible quality. Of course, users are encouraged to share the recorded video and discuss among other UFO enthusiasts. UFO Detector makes video sharing as easy as one click.
"UFOID provides a platform to share the recorded videos and have them analyzed by other people," states the UFO Detector website. "Whether you are a believer or a skeptic, your opinion matters and is used to identify the objects."
In an interview with OpenMinds.tv, UFO Detector Developer Mark Lakum stated that the idea came about when he thought there had to be "a better way" to study UFO phenomenon. Although the software has been around for a while, Lakum only recently made it open-source. He created UFOID.net in conjunction with it, and the platform now exists for individuals to share their findings as a community.
UFO Detector works with a computer's webcam. The camera must be pointed in the direction of the sky (understandably) in order to capture potential UFO footage. The software allows users to choose which parts of their screen to monitor. It's also supposedly smart enough to rule out interference from objects, such as planes and birds, as long as the user tags them. The goal is to only record supposed UFOs, rather than eat up hard drive space with videos of inactive skies.
On the UFOID YouTube page, UFO Detector users have already posted videos caught with the software, depicting some unusual activity. Many of these videos have hundreds of views, hinting that UFO Detector may actually be achieving its goal of bringing the UFO community closer together.
The developers of UFO Detector are currently working on making the software functional on a wide variety of platforms, including Raspberry Pi. Additionally, a new feature will soon be introduced to prevent the tampering of captured video.
A streak of bright green light appeared above Southern California on Tuesday. What was it? It is being called space junk that just burned up in the atmosphere. What do you think?
A bright green flash has been seen by people hundreds of miles apart shooting across the Californian night sky on April 26, 2016.
U.S. Strategic Command told CBS that the mysterious object does not appear to be man-made, however it was not a tracked satellite in their database, the agency said.
The first video shows the sphere-like object, continued with a footage captured on the dash cam of a car in Los Angeles around that time, shows the object ( space junk fireball/meteor or something else?) falling through the night sky towards the ground.
Another witness on his way home caught the fireball on his dash cam too. Witness: “The camera doesn’t capture it very well but the fireball was sparking a lot and had a green light to it.”
UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT CRASH-LANDS IN LAKE WINNIPEG, MILITARY IMMEDIATELY TAKES OVER
UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT CRASH-LANDS IN LAKE WINNIPEG, MILITARY IMMEDIATELY TAKES OVER
This particular event which occurred in a desolate place from Canada during extreme-weather conditions forced the military to cover-up tracks once again.
This February, in Manitoba, Canada, on the Jackhead Reservation, rumors spread about a possible UFO crash landing into Lake Winnipeg.
Following this report, the Canadian military has quickly made their way to the highlighted area, blocking all access to unauthorized personnel.
During the military operation, nobody was permitted to enter or leave the reservation, while the residents of the area were visited by troops telling them that an emergency training excercise is ongoing and that they shouldn’t leave their homes until this ends.
This was a curious action because an extremely cold front was already being felt over Manitoba for a last couple of days, making time spent outdoors a dangerous activity.
A man stranded inside the Jackhead Reservation allegedly reported that:
Apparently a disc shaped craft was seen crashing through the ice on the lake, at least one person got photographic evidence but has since been detained by the Canadian military.
The military deployed a large number of troops and equipment, effectively suppressing all view of what crashed into the lake or what they were doing there. Fortunately, some brave citizens facing the harsh weather conditions managed to take a few pictures of the gear used by the military, highlighting the importance of this “exercise” in this eventless area of Canada.
Owned by the Aboriginal people, the Jackhead Reservation is governed by their own laws which do not allow for operations such as these to take place, making the Canadian military intruders under these circumstances.
A native by the name of Dakotah Traverse stated that no major event took place here until now and that UFOs are not a rare sight around these parts either:
My people have been seeing these kind of things for years now. It’s funny that the military has entered my reserve for training – which they have never before, and this sudden and with so much troops. My reserve has never seen this much attention before, especially by the military, but neither from anyplace else. I wouldn’t even call this place a blip on the map, it’s so small.
While people reported seeing military forces dragging a strange disc-shaped object using snowmobiles, the Canadian army officials stated that this was just one big training exercise teaching soldiers on how to deal with a plane crash in the Arctic and rescue maneuvers.
There’s no aliens, just my friends in the air force who are out there helping us on this exercise. I have the commander of that air force contingent sitting right beside me and you know, he assures us that there was not a UFO, but that was him.
It is rather unlikely that an actual training exercise took place because they refused to give in any data about the supposed event. No evidence has been released in order to assure us this was indeed a plane crash training operation.
Whatever the case may be, we have drawn the line, speculating in favor of a UFO landing in the lake that could either have ET origins or it could be a craft designed using the latest military technology (which we believe to be extremely advanced) that crashed as a result of really bad weather
The Fermi Paradox – Aliens Haven’t Made Contact With Us Yet Because They’re Dead
The Fermi Paradox – Aliens Haven’t Made Contact With Us Yet Because They’re Dead
Many attempts have been done throughout the years to communicate with extraterrestrial beings residing in the universe, but to no avail. A recent study has proposed that they may all be dead, so we should focus on preserving life on Earth rather than trying to reach them.
There’s no doubt about the vastness of the universe we live in. Considering this colossal expanse, it’s logical to assume that other intelligent lifeforms reside within. Our technological means have evolved, our understanding of space has boomed over the years, but we haven’t yet found any trace of advanced extraterrestrials. When it comes to why we haven’t achieved this yet, there are countless speculations providing an explanation.
First of all, let’s see how far the universe stretches. According to data gathered throughout the years, there should be billions of other galaxies beside the Milky Way, each of them containing billions of stars, in turn orbited by billions of planets. This only implies that chances for intelligent life to be found somewhere else other than Earth are extremely high. But why haven’t we managed such a feat yet?
According to scientists, other galaxies are out of reach for us. Even if we learn how to travel at the speed of light, time would be an issue whenever considering venturing outside of the Milky Way. So, instead of focusing on finding intelligent life in the entire cosmos, we should only search the galaxy that we find ourselves into. What are the chances of success you might ask?
There are around 100 billion planets in the Milky Way alone, and although just a portion of them could sustain life, there are still millions of planets left with extraterrestrial life, and hundreds of thousands that should be inhabited by intelligent and advanced species. So why haven’t we discovered them so far if they reside in the same galaxy as we do?
The Fermi’s paradox tries to elucidate this mystery. It represents an apparent contradiction between the estimated possibilities (which clearly give high chances for ET life) and the lack of evidence of alien life.
A new study conducted by scientists at the Australian National University suggests that we failed to discover aliens because they all may be dead. As extreme as this sounds, the team has based their hypothesis on certain calculations of planetary birth – the first billion years after a planet forms are unlikely to offer the adequate conditions for life to evolve. Therefor the chances for intelligent life to appear in a short span of time after a planet had formed are slim.
The Universe is probably filled with habitable planets, so many scientists think it should be teeming with aliens,” said lead researcher Aditya Chopra from the Australian National University. “Early life is fragile, so we believe it rarely evolves quickly enough to survive.
Scientists highlighted that 4 billion years ago, Venus and Mars could had supported life, but more than a billion years after they formed, the temperatures changed so drastically that it could had wiped the entire life on the two planets.
The study further adds that our planet remains habitable because of its inhabitants stabilizing the environment. “Most early planetary environments are usable,” says Chopra. “To produce a habitable planet, life forms need to regulate greenhouse gases such as water and carbon dioxide to keep surface temperatures stable.”
Previous studies revealed that Earth maintained its evolutionary state due to a rapid growth of life that ultimately had a benevolent impact on the planet. During Earth’s early stages, the Sun was heating up with 25 percent less intensity. At this point, the oceans on our planet were frozen, but not entirely. The liquid water on the surface interacted with the frozen areas, impacting the radiation coming from the Sun, and ultimately determining the temperatureon the surface.
In extremely rare cases – like on Earth – the relatively rapid evolution from single-to multicellular organisms to complex life forms did not produce enough greenhouse gases to cause runaway negative feedback and heat the planet enough to evaporate all its liquid water,” explains Campbell Simpson at Gizmodo.
If proven to be correct, this hypothesis may solve the dilemma of the Fermi paradox – If the Universe is so vast, encompassing trillions of life-sustaining stars and habitable planets, why haven’t we encountered any aliens so far?
The mystery of why we haven’t yet found signs of aliens may have less to do with the likelihood of the origin of life or intelligence and have more to do with the rarity of the rapid emergence of biological regulation of feedback cycles on planetary surfaces,” concluded astronomer Charles Lineweaver.
If this theory is right, then chances of meeting other intelligent lifeforms in the galaxy are extremely unlikely. This thought should make us reflect more on the harmful impact we have on the environment, and eventually try to resolve this planetary crisis we find ourselves into before it’s too late.
Whatever the case, there is plenty of room left for speculation, and there is one theory claiming that advanced species of aliens (Type 3 on Kardashev scale) could be monitoring us until we reach a certain level of evolution. From that point, they will either reveal themselves to us, or send us into oblivion.
[VIDEO] Burning Object Above Arizona Seems to Defy all Explanations
[VIDEO] Burning Object Above Arizona Seems to Defy all Explanations
A strange device has lit up over Arizona, leaving numerous witnesses scratching their heads, as they couldn’t understand what was happening right above them.
There are countless sky anomalies recorded each year, some of them ending up being explained through scientific means, but others continue to defy any rational explanation. If we take into consideration the other bizarre events that don’t make it on the news or social media, the matter takes an even more ample dimension.
From portals opening up behind the moon to peculiar flashes of light coming from the clouds, our world is sure to put an extraordinary spectacle. However, the possibility of those being the product of otherworldly forces that far exceed our imagination is also likely. To add further proof to my claims, I’ll present you a strange event that took place over Snowflake, Arizona recently.
On September 19, 2015, a mysterious light appeared on the sky during sunrise. It was about 6 AM when residents who were awake were surprised of what, at first sight, appears to be a falling object of unknown origins.
It lit up over a cloud, leaving a dense smoky trail behind it. After a few moments of falling, the object becomes visible. It’s surprisingly to notice such a small device (or whatever it is) leaving behind such as dense trail. From 0:22 to 0:32 you can see it pulsating through the air, like some sort of transmitter. After exactly 10 seconds, it begins to release another trail of smoke, almost like being programmed to do so. It dissipates the cloud below as it passes through it, with the smoky trail remaining visible.
At this point, the mysterious object pauses for another 10 seconds before incinerating the sky once more. It repeats the procedure until it reaches the ground. The areas of the sky where the device went through are looking like patches of burning grass, thus raising a lot of questions about the material that’s being released by the falling object.
The first rational explanation when first seeing this is that of a freefalling object. However, this doesn’t seem the case after closely analyzing the video, since a burning object would leave a constant trail of smoke behind it. From what you can see, there’s a small beeping device that’s causing all this, and it appears to be programmed to release something into the air at precise intervals of time.
According to analysts that had been investigating this case, the chances are even for this device to have either military or alien origins, although I consider the military scenario more likely. It is a well-known fact that the government is spraying different chemicals into the air using special chem-planes. But what does this have to do with it, you might ask? Well, since more and more people are becoming aware of what’s happening, they have to implement new methods to continue their actions without the general population noticing.
There’s been another case filmed by a vigilant sky watcher, revealing a close-up of a similar falling device. The only difference is the trail of smoke left behind, which in this case is not visible. Similarities such as the beeping sensor that can be seen from afar, and the relatively small size of the falling object make these two sightings likely to be related.
Other conspirators speak of a possible alien device, but I doubt aliens would make such a fuss considering they have technology way ahead of our time.
The case remains unexplained for now, as it is hard to determine the composition of the burning material, or the exact origins of the device, but the theory suggesting of a new type of military weapon remains viable.
Strong Evidence of UFO Activity Near the Apollo 17 Lunar Mission
Strong Evidence of UFO Activity Near the Apollo 17 Lunar Mission
Numerous anomalies were found by the UFO community upon investigating thousands of official photos from the Apollo 17 mission. If you still don’t believe there’s something out of this world residing on the Moon, you better have a look at this.
Apollo 17 was the final mission of the US’ Apollo program that landed the first astronauts on the Moon in 1972. During the 12-day lunar mission, the crew captured more than 8,400 photos of the lunar surface which are now available on both Flickr and NASA website.
Years after the photos were released, UFO hunters discovered anomalous objects in some of the pictures that strongly resemble space crafts of otherworldly origins. While there are skeptics who try to disprove the ET story, there is viable evidence coming from the UFO community that pushes aside the usual lens flare or reflection hypothesis.
Robert Morningstar, analyst of bizarre phenomenon, has recently revealed on Coast to Coast AM, pictures highlighting a presumed UFO passing behind the Lunar Excursion Module while it was being deployed to the lunar surface from Apollo 17. Besides the spectacular caption of the glowing UFO, it also shows a reflected reaction of an astronaut aboard the Apollo 17 at the sight of the space craft.
It is, to me, the most stunning piece of film to come out of the Apollo program, Morningstar said.
Morningstar claimed that he will have the entire disclosing footage available sometimes this year. Until then, he shared some exclusive photos of the peculiar sighting and dismissed any concerns of the UFO being just an optical illusion or reflection, as it clearly appears to be self-illuminated in the video that he’s going to reveal in the upcoming months.
The recent findings deepen the Apollo17 mystery even further, adding up to the already existing photos showing curious floating objects around the lunar module. In a previous attempt to tell about the extraterrestrial presence, a vigilant UFO analyst revealed yet another picture of a UFO similar to the one posted above. It appeared in the official photos released by the astronauts on the Apollo missions. Could there be a connection between these two cases considering the similarities found in both the shape and light of the objects?
At a closer look, its triangle shape can be observed.
Other reports originating from the Apollo 17 mission revealed the presence of a strange disk-shaped object just behind the lunar module, but this time after it landed on the Moon. It makes its presence noticed in only one picture and its “stalking behavior” is similar to a military craft sent to surveil an area intruded by foreign forces.
UFO researcher Scott C. Waring analyzed the images and concluded the following:
This UFO is following the lunar module, because a military ship sent to measure any security threat that the humans may pose. Like all countries around the world, when a ship enters your territory, it’s met with military craft.
After the Apollo 17 mission came to an end, several records set by previous flights were overcome, including the longest lunar landing flight, the largest lunar sample return, the longest total lunar surface covered by extravehicular activities, and also the longest time spent into the lunar orbit. Apart from this, Apollo 17 remains the most recent manned Moon landing, with no other astronauts setting foot out there since 1972. Could this be but a coincidence?
The considerable amount of days this mission had, as well as the fact that no other manned missions have been engaged until then, raises a lot of question marks.
Is it possible that the astronauts encountered a secret lunar base on the Moon? If so, did aliens restrict human access to the Moon’s surface? Why would the Apollo 17 mission gather so much evidence, take so many pictures, and then never return to explore the natural satellite orbiting our planet?
Whatever the case, the above images clearly indicate some sort of extraterrestrial presence, and while it’s still impossible to prove that the astronauts were intercepted by aliens, the reality of UFOs appearing in many stages of the Apollo 17 mission might be sufficient enough for some to believe that NASA may have a secret pact with aliens and they are not letting us know about it.
Het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartbedrijf SpaceX wil in 2018 een onbemand ruimteschip naar Mars sturen. Met het project genaamd Red Dragon wil het bedrijf van Elon Musk de technologieën verfijnen die nodig zullen zijn voor een bemande missie naar de Rode Planeet.
"Dragon 2 is ontworpen om overal in ons zonnestelsel te kunnen landen'', zei Musk woensdag op Twitter over een van de ruimteschepen die zijn bedrijf eerder ontwierp. "De Red Dragon Mars-missie is de eerste testvlucht."
Maan Musk, ook de topman van automerk Tesla, voegde eraan toe dat hoewel de Dragon 2 geschikt is voor passagiers, hij er niet verder dan de maan mee zou willen reizen. De Dragon 2 is van binnen ongeveer even groot alseen SUV-wagen.
Meer details over de Mars-missie volgen in september op het Internationaal Astronomisch Congres, dat dit jaar in Mexico wordt gehouden.

VIDEO: Mysterieuze groene vuurbal verbijstert inwoners Californië
VIDEO: Mysterieuze groene vuurbal verbijstert inwoners Californië
Op dinsdag verscheen een grote groene vuurbal aan de hemel in Californië. Het is niet bekend wat de herkomst van het object is.
Het schouwspel was rond 22.00 uur lokale tijd te zien van de Mexicaanse grens tot aan Bakersfield in het noorden van Californië. Meldingen kwamen binnen uit onder meer San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange County en Riverside County.
Het Amerikaanse Strategic Command denkt niet dat het een door mensen gemaakt object was, aangezien het niet in de database met alle satellieten voorkwam.
“Ik zag het terwijl ik Playas binnenkwam. Ik dacht in eerste instantie aan een grote vuurwerkshow. Erg gaaf,” schreef SeahawkTJ op Reddit. Een andere Reddit-gebruiker schreef: “Ik zag het vanaf het dak van mijn flatgebouw. De meest heldere staart die ik ooit gezien heb. Ik verwachtte een explosie te horen. Dit leek meer op de staart van een komeet.”
Wetenschappers van het Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles kunnen niet met zekerheid zeggen wat het is geweest, maar zeiden dat het waarschijnlijk om een stuk ‘ruimtepuin’ gaat dat is verbrand terwijl het de atmosfeer van de aarde binnenkwam, meldt de San Diego Union Tribune.
Disc UFO reported hovering over West Virginia bridge
Disc UFO reported hovering over West Virginia bridge
A West Virginia witness at Winfield reported a brief encounter with a hovering, disc-shaped UFO, before it shot off into the night sky, according to testimony in Case 74089 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and a friend had just parked their vehicle near a bridge as they were waiting to join up with a friend at that location at 10:30 p.m. on November 13, 2015.
“I just pulled in to park so we could wait and before I could even put my car in park, I see an object in the sky,” the witness stated.
The witness first thought the object was someone who lived beside the river shinning a spotlight or even a boat with a spot light.

“But it was just so spherical in shape and it was bright. This thing was just hovering right over the river moving from left to right slowly. I was left speechless watching.”
The shortly the object began to move.
“The mysterious object just slowly started going towards the sky, and then, in the blink of an eye, it melted like a teardrop in the sky.”
The witness immediately looked to see if his passenger had seen the object.
“As soon as the object just vanished I shouted to my friend,‘Did you see that?’But unfortunately she was on her phone not paying any attention to what was going on. It all lasted approximately 30 seconds at most.”

A New Zealand witness at Tauranga Bay of Plenty reported watching a large, glowing object approach swiftly, light up the community and abruptly descend as though landing, according to testimony in Case 74972 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The incident occurred on March 5, 2016, and was reported to MUFON the same day.
“I couldn’t sleep as I had several coffees with friends in the afternoon and so was still wide awake as I lay in bed,” the witness stated. “I noticed a shimmering star changing colors in the distance so went and got my binoculars to look at it more closely.”
The witness thought it was only a star when viewed through the binoculars.
“However as I returned to my bed after putting the binoculars away, my whole room lit up and I thought, ‘What the hell?’ and as I looked out from my two-story window I saw a huge glowing, bright, lime, greenish yellow orb coming up from a southeast direction.”

The witness noticed that the object was growing larger and larger as it approached very fast.
“Then inexplicably it suddenly left its horizontal trajectory and without a pause, it changed its direction and descended vertically and slightly sloping trajectory. It descended rapidly and in a peculiar momentum unknown to any other Earthly craft that I have seen descend.”
The witness noticed that as it rapidly descended, the suburb was full of light.

“I lost sight of it and it dropped below the roof lines of neighboring houses. Its descent trajectory would have put it on course with the larger of the lakes a block away from the house. I did not see it ascend even though I sat up for about an hour after the event with binoculars at the ready just in case.”

Date of sighting: February 27, 2016 Location of sighting: Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Source: MUFON #76076 Dr. Charles Hall worked two years with tall white aliens that had their own base within Nellis AFB. This glowing ship looks a lot like the description that Hall gives about what he saw them fly in. He has stated many times that the Tall Whites like to go to Vegas to relax and enjoy a normal human lifestyle. This ship is probably taking some Tall Whites back to their base. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com To read more about the aliens at Nellis AFB, click on this. US Military Vet worked with Tall White aliens at Nellis Air Force Base, Video, UFO Sighting News. Eyewitness states: I Had Just come out of the Rio Hotel/Casino to catch The E/B Flamingo Bus, I Turned back toward the Hotel Because I Caught this Very Bright White light out of my Peripheral Vision, It was going west, No Sound, No Blinking, or "FAA" I.D. (Anti-Collision) Light's, It Glowed From Within, No External Light's. I Am a Former Private Pilot, and a Aircraft & Technology Enthusiast, I am Familiar with most kind's of aircraft, This wasn't a Helicopter, Or Jet, or Civilian aircraft, when I saw that it was Returning E/B From Behind the Rio Bldg. (on the left) I took out my Cellphone to Video it, took a picture then switched to video, (Both Included) I Think it was a UFO, Unless it was some kind of Homemade Drone, But from my best estimate it was about 300 ft.Alt. Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 mile away, and looked to be about the size of a Mini-Van. I Didn't see it emerge from behind Bldg. #2, And right at that time my bus was arriving, You can hear it in the audio, along with traffic noise, so I had to stop the video (and Further Investigation) Could you please take a closer Look at it and let me Know what you think, I Don't have the equipment to Enlarge the video to see more detail, I Was very excited to observe this, and I think I got one! I Believe that we are not alone, and have Never Been alone. . .and I Hope I Live long enough to experience "Disclosure", and possibly meet, and interact with our Space "Family" Thank You!!
This UFO was found by Streetcap1 of Youtube has shows a blue glowing ship in Earths orbit. The ship is actually moving from right to left of the photo. How do I know it? Because it was caught not one time, but three time in that particular photo. The ship is actually jumping, not flying from place to place. Much like a time traveler would, but instead of time, its space. Check out Streetcap1 and his awesome video channel for more great discoveries. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com

Mysterious green UFO in Southern California sky baffles onlookers, April 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: April 27, 2016 Location of sighting: California, USA News source:
http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2016/04/27/Mysterious-green-light-in-Southern-California-sky-baffles-onlookers/6211461759967/ I have a strange feeling that on the night of April 27, several mysterious planes landed in the area where the UFO crashed. Janet planes (737 Boeing), which carry secret scientists and search and recovery teams to sites of top secret crashes from Area 51. I believe this alien tech craft in the hands of the USAF has been seen crashing before...in Needles, California May 2008, a small city I once lived in. Back in Needles, a green glowing oval UFO was seen crashing and later retrieved by black helicopters and two Janet planes seen at the local closed airport. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com
News states: LOS ANGELES, April 27 (UPI) -- A green light streaking across the night sky over Southern California left witnesses baffled and even experts were short on firm answers as to the cause of the display. Several residents of San Bernardino County and the surrounding region reported spotting the mystery green light in the sky between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Tuesday, and at least one resident shared dashboard camera footage of the mystery light. Dr. Edwin Krupp of the Griffith Observatory said the green light may have been interplanetary debris that caught fire to create a meteor while entering the atmosphere. He said the object may have also been man-made debris from a previous space launch. Krupp said there is a strong possibility that the object completely burned up in the atmosphere, meaning it may never be conclusively identified.
