Gorgeous 'Twilight Zone' Photo of Pluto May Show Cloud for 1st Time
Gorgeous 'Twilight Zone' Photo of Pluto May Show Cloud for 1st Time
By Mike Wall, Space.com Senior Writer
This backlit Pluto photo was captured on July 14, 2015 by NASA’s New Horizons probe, shortly after its closest approach to the dwarf planet. Mountains, ice plains and a possible cloud are visible in the sunlit portion of the photo (top inset), while rugged topography is apparent on Pluto’s dark side (bottom inset).

A spectacular new image of Pluto shows rugged mountains, nitrogen-ice plains and, perhaps, a big cloud scudding through the dwarf planet's exotic skies. NASA even described the view as the "twilight zone" of Pluto.
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft captured the photo shortly after its closest approach to Pluto on July 14, 2015, when the sun was on the other side of the dwarf planet from the probe's perspective.
In the backlit twilight view, sunlight filters through Pluto's many-layered atmosphere and lights up certain features, including the towering Norgay Montes mountain range and the vast plain known as Sputnik Planum, whose surface is likely renewed every 500,000 years or so by churning convective processes.
Also illuminated is a bright wisp tens of miles across "that may be a discrete, low-lying cloud in Pluto's atmosphere; if so, it would be the only one yet identified in New Horizons imagery," NASA officials wrote in a photo description Thursday (June 2) that dubbed the image Pluto's "twilight zone." "Atmospheric models suggest that methane clouds can occasionally form in Pluto's atmosphere."
This spectacular full-view of Pluto's so-called "twilight zone" was captured by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft during its July 14, 2015 and released on June 2, 2016.

These features — mountains, plains and possible cloud — all lie in a sliver of sunlight, at the top limb of Pluto. But intriguing landscape details are also visible near the bottom of the photo, which depicts Pluto's night side.
"The topography here appears quite rugged, and broad valleys and sharp peaks with relief totaling 3 miles (5 kilometers) are apparent," NASA officials wrote.
New Horizons took the newly released photo with its Ralph/Multispectral Visual Imaging Camera about 19 minutes after closest Pluto approach, from a distance of about 13,400 miles (21,550 km). (Closest approach brought the probe within 7,800 miles, or 12,550 km, of the dwarf planet's surface.)
The photo features a resolution of about 1,400 feet (430 meters) per pixel, NASA officials said.
New Horizons is still beaming flyby data home, and will continue to do so through this coming fall. (The probe is currently about 3.2 billion miles, or 5.15 billion km, from Earth; such a vast distance makes transmission rates slow, due to the significant weakening of New Horizons' radio signal.)
The spacecraft is currently zooming toward a small object called 2014 MU69, which lies about 1 billion miles (1.6 billion km) beyond Pluto. If NASA approves and funds a proposed extended mission, New Horizons will study 2014 MU69 up close on Jan. 1, 2019.
Close encounters in Canada: UFO data reveals unexplained alien sightings
Close encounters in Canada: UFO data reveals unexplained alien sightings
Graham Slaughter, CTVNews.ca
A pair of orange fireballs streaking across the dark horizon. A mysterious object crashing into Lake Winnipeg. A nighttime visit from a “being with blonde hair and blue skin.”
These are among 1,267 reported UFO sightings across Canada in 2015, the second-biggest year for unexplained alien activity in the last 30 years.
The detailed Canadian UFO Survey released Monday by the Winnipeg-based group Ufology Research includes accounts of where, when and precisely what Canadians claim they saw in the sky last year.
PHOTOS
A UFO was reported in Esquimalt, B.C. in connection with this undated photograph.

Winnipeg-based UFO researched Chris Rutkowski tells CTV News Channel that UFO sightings have steadily increased since the Canadian UFO Survey began in 1989.
The trove of strange stories includes dozens of unexplained lights, aircrafts shaped like discs and diamonds, silently hovering UFOs and a few close encounters of the third kind.
In one case from Quebec, someone reported seeing three short “humanoids” with heads too big for their bodies and “big, black slanted eyes.” They then heard a high-pitched hum and woke up the next morning.
The stories may sound unbelievable, and researchers admit that many don’t hold up. Only about 12 per cent of the reports were classified as “unexplained.”
“The ridicule factor is quite certainly there, but we’re not saying the little grey guys are here. This is simply what people are reporting,” Winnipeg-based UFO researched Chris Rutkowski told CTV News Channel on Tuesday.
The data was collected from 17 sources across the country including Transport Canada, Canada National Defense, the National UFO Reporting Center and YouTube.
Witnesses included pilots, police officers and “other individuals with reasonably good observing capabilities and good judgement,” researchers wrote.
The only year with more UFO sightings than 2015 was 2012. Researchers believe that may have related to reports of a supposed “end-of-days” phenomenon from the Mayan calendar.
“We do know that the UFO reports continue to be made in growing numbers every year and this is just indicative that people are paying attention to what is in the sky. They’re not just looking down at their cellphones,” Rutkowski said.
Quebec led the country with 35 per cent of all UFO reports in 2015 -- a notable jump from previous years when that figure wavered between five and 15 per cent.
“It could be (that) the media are a little more attentive to the UFOs in Quebec,” Rutkowski said.
Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland all had an increase in UFO sightings in 2015. In terms of major Canadian cities, Montreal had the most reports with 97, with 78 sightings in Toronto and 69 in Vancouver.
The average sighting lasted about 16 minutes.
Ufology Research has collected the reports on a yearly basis since 1989. Since then, they’ve compiled 16,905 sightings.
Many strange lights, few alien beings
By and large, Canadians mostly reported seeing strange lights in the night sky. They came in a variety of colours (pink, orange, “brilliant white”) and shapes (orbs, triangles), and some moved in curious zigzagging or stop-and-go patterns.
The data becomes particularly strange is in several isolated reports of one-on-one contact with alien beings.
In Montpellier, Que., a “humanoid” reportedly approached a house after lights were seen. In Kentville, N.S., an alien reportedly entered a person’s bedroom and held their shoulders. In Oshawa, Ont., someone reported being abducted aboard a spaceship (a note indicates “photos that don’t show anything.”)
In an attached essay on the data, researchers ponder what, if not proof of alien life, underlies the eyewitness reports.
“Is this phenomenon psychological, sociological, cultural, and/or physical? Is it our contemporary culture’s storytelling? Is it our collective psychological and social mythology generating what myths have generated since ancient times, answers to our desires, visions of our nightmares, and insights into what our future may hold? Or is the phenomenon something else? Physical objects created by our species or another form of life we cannot beginto understand?”
Canadians more open to discussing UFOs
The steadily rising reports of UFOs could be linked to several factors: the popularization of drones, camera phones, laser pointers, at-home strobe lights. But Rutkowski suggests that the increase likely relates to the country’s collective curiosity.
“People are more interested. I think other people will talk to each other at a party or in school or university, and these are the types of topics people are interested in,” he said.
He added that, as writers like Stephen Hawking continue to pen popular books on outer space, humankind will continue to question the existence of extra-terrestrial life.
“Because space is so much in the public eye, I think people are paying a little more attention to the possibility that we are not alone.”
A Terrifying experience was recalled by an English woman who believed that she was abducted by an alien twenty years ago. Her alien encounter story will be detailed in a new book written by an expert and author of UFO Roy named Dutton. On July 16, 1981, around 1:45 a.m., Valerie Walters said she was driving home with her two friends, Vivienne, and Rosemary from a night out in Sheffield, United Kingdom. She was 26 years old at that time when a strange light hovering in the sky started to appear that terrified them.
Moments later, a massive extraterrestrial aircraft flying directly above their car. Though she cannot remember what happened next, she is certain that there was a beeping noise that made her very sleepy. As soon as she woke up, she noticed that her friends were gone. So, she came out of the car to look for them. Before she heard a strange voice, the car suddenly disappeared. The mysterious voice reminded her not to be afraid. Her head went red as she felt like she was being vacuumed after hearing the voice. She was already in front of some mysterious beings the next thing she knew. She recalled being in a white wedge-shaped room with two creatures, both with hypnotic blue eyes and shoulder length dark hair. Walters admitted that she and her friends reported the horrible extraterrestrial encounter to the police, but their case was not handled seriously. As with her friends, they cannot entirely recall what happened.
Alien abduction stories are not rare in humans. In fact, the Walters’ story is not the first case. According to the Inquisitr, it started in the 1950s, when people reported having been abducted by aliens in the “UFO Case Book.” In 2005, Donna Lee claimed to lose her baby after she and her husband were abducted by aliens repeatedly. Another man, in the same year, also claimed that aliens abducted him after spotting a strange object in his backyard.
I was home, in backyard looking with my wife thru telescope meade etx-70. I was looking for M51 whirlpool galaxy when noticed triangle shaped siluette hovering. then suddenly fast changed direction to right (east) then stopped. I called my wife to see. We was able to track that one object for about 15 minutes, then another triangle shaped UFO came right next to first one and both of them had lights, all around object. Then we saw clearly that both of them were triangle shaped UFO’s. Then for about 50 minutes we able to track them on sky, for moments we lost them from site because they were so fast, and they have unpredictable directions, they was flying straight then sharp turns, then sudden stop, but we able to find them again. We didn’t see them with naked eyes, just with telescope so I don’t know that they were in our atmosphere or in space.
First time to me, it looked like a airplane B2 or F117 but planes can’t hover and change directions like that. Hovering, fast moves, unpredictable directions, fast start and sudden stop, and hovering again. I was excited, so as my wife. that is her first time to see something, for me that was the last, but saw few times strange lights and objects earlier.
About 1 hour 5-10 minutes later, they just turned off the lights and disappeared from our sight.
From that day I’m always using astro cam and laptop in case I see something strange again.
WETENSCHAPEen vuurbal heeft de nachtelijke hemel boven de Amerikaanse staat Arizona gisteren enkele seconden lang doen opklaren. De oorzaak was een ontploffend brokstuk van een planetoïde. Video's van NASA tonen de indrukwekkende lichtflits, die de All-Sky-camera's van de ruimtevaartorganisatie een tijdlang volledig verblindde.
De lichtflits was tien keer zo helder als een volle maan en ging naar verluidt gepaard met enkele supersonische knallen. De ontploffing was voelbaar op de grond. Schade lijkt er niet te zijn, al achten wetenschappers de kans groot dat er meteorieten op aarde zijn terechtgekomen.
NASA schat dat het brokstuk 1 à 2 meter groot was, en dat het met 64.700 kilometer per uur onze dampkring binnenkwam.
Deze video van een meteoorcamera brengt de lichtflits spectaculair in beeld:

RUIMTEVAART SpaceX-topman Elon Musk zit doorgaans niet om een gewaagde uitspraak verlegen, en ook op de developersconferentie Code 2016 liet hij weer van zich horen. Niet voor het eerst had Musk het over zijn plannen om mensen naar Mars te sturen. Voor het eerst is er nu ook een concrete timing: de eerste Marsreizigers zullen gelanceerd worden in 2024, om een jaar later op de rode planeet te arriveren. Dat meldt Forbes.
Musk was op de conferentie aanwezig om de recente ontwikkelingen toe te lichten van zijn pogingen om raketten opnieuw te doen landen. SpaceX is daar dit jaar al meermaals in geslaagd. De bedoeling van het project is delen van een raket te kunnen hergebruiken, om de kosten van ruimtevaart drastisch te doen dalen. Tegen het einde van de zomer hoopt het bedrijf een eerste raket met gerecupereerde onderdelen te lanceren.
Nog dit jaar wil Musk voor het eerst ook de grotere Falcon Heavy-raket lanceren. Die was aanvankelijk gepland voor 2012/2013, maar is nu nog steeds in ontwikkeling. Volgens Musk wordt de Falcon Heavy de krachtigste raket sinds de Saturn V die voor het eerst mensen naar de maan bracht.
Kolonisering
Al deze plannen leiden voor Musk naar het ultieme doel: naar Mars reizen. Tijdens de IAC-conferentie in september zal hij zijn langetermijnplannen voor de kolonisering van Mars bekend maken, maar op Code 2016 lichtte hij al een tipje van de sluier.
Zoals bekend wil Musk in 2018 een Dragon naar Mars sturen. Na die eerste lancering, zo voegde hij er nu aan toe, plant het bedrijf een nieuwe lading naar de rode planeet te sturen telkens als de banen van de aarde en Mars dat toelaten. Die gelegenheid is er eens om de 26 maanden.
In 2024 hoopt het bedrijf dan de eerste mensen naar Mars te sturen. Al moet zelfs Musk toegeven dat er omtrent dat plan nog wat onzekerheden bestaan.
Gesteld dat SpaceX erin slaagt vele mensen op Mars te krijgen, ziet Musk "grote ondernemingskansen" op de planeet, van "de eerste ijzerertsraffinaderij tot de eerste pizzatent". "Wat SpaceX nu probeert te doen, is een klimaat scheppen zodat ondernemers op Mars kunnen bloeien", klinkt het.
Lost Underwater ‘City’ Revealed as Natural Geological Formation
Lost Underwater ‘City’ Revealed as Natural Geological Formation

What was thought to be an underwater, lost city is actually a naturally occurring geological phenomenon.
Pipe-like, disc and doughnut-shaped structures discovered by underwater divers near the island of Zakynthos, Greece, were originally believed to be ruins of an ancient city, such as remnants of paved floors, courtyards and columns.
Archaeologists with the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities of Greece, a department within the Greek Ministry of Culture specializing in marine archaeology, examined the site; they found no further evidence that this was indeed an ancient civilization. Suspecting a geological explanation, the Greek Ministry brought in researchers from the University of East Anglia and the University of Athens to investigate the oddly shaped structures.
"The site was discovered by snorkelers and first thought to be an ancient city port, lost to the sea," lead study author Julian Andrews, a professor at UEA's School of Environmental Sciences, said in a statement.
"There were what superficially looked like circular column bases and paved floors but, mysteriously, no other signs of life — such as pottery."

Using microscopy, X-ray techniques and chemical analyses, the researchers studied the mineral content of the underwater formations. These analyses showed that the "ruins" are likely the fossilized remains of a natural plumbing system, located beneath the seafloor, for ancient hydrocarbon seeps. Here, methane and other hydrocarbons escape from the seafloor into the water above.
While beneath the seafloor, microbes in the sediment would have used the carbon in methane as fuel, forming a natural cement around the structures. The resulting structures are known to geologists as concretion.
Erosion then exposed the underground structures to the bustling ecosystem in the modern, shallow subtidal zone, where the structures were "bored and encrusted by modern marine organisms," Andrews and colleagues wrote in the study, which appeared today (June 2) in the journal Marine and Petroleum Geology.
"The disk and doughnut morphology … is typical of mineralization at hydrocarbon seeps — seen both in modern seafloor and paleo settings," though such formations "looked a bit like circular column bases," Andrews said. "We found that the linear distribution of these doughnut-shaped concretions is likely the result of a subsurface fault which has not fully ruptured the surface of the seabed. The fault allowed gases, particularly methane, to escape from depth."
Though the site is not in fact an ancient, underwater city, the discovery near Zakynthos is rather uncommon geologically, Andrews said. The phenomenon is rare in shallow waters, as most similar formations can be located hundreds or thousands of meters deep underwater, he said.
The globular cluster NGC 6397 (seen in this Hubble Space Telescope image), located about 7,200 light-years away, is estimated to be 13.5 billion years old; that makes the cluster among the first objects of the galaxy to form after the Big Bang.

Scientists now know the universe is expanding, at an ever-increasing rate. So if it's ballooning, what is it growing into? In other words, what is beyond the known universe?
Defining this "beyond the universe" would imply that the universe has an edge. And that's where things get tricky, because scientists aren't certain if such a drop-off exists.
The answer depends on how one views the question.
Cliff-hanger
One form of the question asks, "Could you go somewhere that you could look 'beyond' the universe," the way one might peer beyond a cliff edge or look out a window to see the outside of a building? The answer to that query is "probably not."
One reason involves the "cosmological principle," said Robert McNees, an associate professor of physics at Loyola University Chicago. The cosmological principle states that the distribution of matter in any part of the universe looks roughly the same as in any other part, regardless what direction you look in; in scientists' terms, the universe is isotropic.
The cosmological principle is, in part, a consequence of the idea that the laws of physics are the same everywhere. "There's lots of local variation — stars, galaxies, clusters, etc. — but averaged over big chunks of space, no place is really that different than anywhere else," McNees told Live Science in an email
The implication though, is that there is no "edge"; there is no place to go where the universe just ends and one could look in some direction and see what's beyond it.
One analogy often used to describe this edgeless universe is the surface of a balloon. An ant on such a surface can walk in any direction and it would look like the surface was "unbounded" — that is, the ant might come back to where it started but there would be no end to the journey. So even though the surface of a balloon is a finite number of square units, there's no edge to it, no boundary (since you can go forever in any one direction). In addition, there's no "center," so there's no preferred point on the balloon's spherical surface.
The universe is a three-dimensional version of the balloon's skin.
Ballooning universe
But how can the universe be expanding if there is no end or edge to it?
Using the balloon analogy again, if one were to add more air to the balloon, the ant would observe other things on the balloon's surface getting farther away. And the greater the distance between the ant and some object, the faster that object would be receding. But no matter where the ant skittered, the speed at which those objects were receding would follow the same relations — if the ant came up with an equation describing how fast the farthest objects were receding, it would work the same way anywhere on the balloon's surface.
However, balloons, when blown up, are expanding into a three-dimensional space. The problem is that this doesn't apply to the universe. By definition, the universe contains everything, so there is no "outside." Physicist Stephen Hawking has often said that the whole question makes no sense, because if the universe came from nothing and brought everything into existence, then asking what lies beyond the universe is like asking what is north of the North Pole. [The Big Bang to Civilization: 10 Amazing Origin Events]
Dr. Katie Mack, a theoretical astrophysicist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, told Live Science that it might be more useful to think of the universe as getting less dense, rather than expanding. That is, the concentration of matter in the universe is decreasing as the universe expands, she said.
That's because galaxies aren't moving away from each other through space — it's space itself that is getting bigger. So any aliens in the galaxies that humans see would all come to the same conclusion that Earthlings do: Everything else is moving away in all directions, and the local galaxy is at rest.
Because space is expanding, it's possible for the galaxies to appear as if they are moving faster than light, without violating relativity — which says that nothing can go faster than light in a vacuum. The actual size of the observable universe is 46 billion light-years in any direction, even though the universe began only 13.8 billion years ago, Mack said. But that still sets a limit on the size of the universe humans can see, called the observable universe. Anything outside of that radius of 46 billion light-years is not visible to Earthlings, and it never will be. That's because the distances between objects in the universe keep getting bigger at a rate that's faster than the light beams can get to Earth.
And on top of that, the rate of expansion has not been uniform. For a brief fraction of a second after the Big Bang, there was a period of accelerated expansion called inflation, during which the universe grew at a much faster pace than it is growing now. Whole regions of space will never be observable from Earth for that reason. Mack noted that assuming inflation happened, the universe is actually 1023 times bigger than the 46 billion light-years humans can see. So if there is an edge to the universe, it's so far away Earthlings can't see it, and never will. [Big Bang, Deflated? Universe May Have Had No Beginning]
An infinite space?
Meanwhile, there's the issue of whether the universe is infinite in space to begin with, which Mack said is still an open question. Or, the universe might wrap around itself in a higher dimension in the same way that the 2D surface of a sphere wraps around itself in three dimensions, she said.
An additional factor is whether the universe popped into existence out of nothing at all, via small fluctuations in a vacuum, or, as Hawking and James Hartle proposed, time and space become interchangeable close to the beginning. If either one is the case, then asking what came before the universe and what is outside of it makes no sense.
Mack said there are ongoing attempts to resolve the question of whether the universe is like a sphere, curving back on itself so that if you travel in one direction you eventually return to your starting point.
"We look for repeated spots in the sky," she said. "That's what people look for when seeking evidence for the universe being finite. … Our space could be a 3D space embedded in a four-dimensional space." (The universe has four dimensions that humans interact with, three of space and one of time, but this would imply there is an additional, fourth spatial dimension.)
If astronomers found two places on opposite sides of the sky that were exactly the same, that would be a strong indication that the universe is curved in that way. There are no guarantees, though. While some cosmological theories such as string theory posit higher dimensions, most of those would be "rolled up" and small, whereas a curved universe's "extra" space dimension would have to be large.
All of this means that if there's an end to the universe, humans might well never be able to see it, and there is the real possibility that the universe is shaped so that it can't have a boundary to begin with.
More and more people around the world are demanding “UFO” disclosure, and governments are responding. In fact, dozens of governments have already admitted to having departments in charge of UFO research and have released decades’ worth of declassified files. While these files do not contain strong evidence to support the existence of extraterrestrial beings, they do officially report objects travelling at high rates of speeds performing maneuvers that no known aircraft can perform. These well-documented encounters raise a number of important questions, and politicians are now beginning to promise us answers.
You can access the United Kingdom’s files here, and to access some more files that detail military encounters with UFOs, you can read this article.
“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)
The gentleman you see in the picture above with Barack Obama is Jon Podesta, who was Obama’s councillor prior to becoming the head of Hillary Clinton’s current presidential campaign. Before working for Obama, he was White House Chief of Staff for Bill Clinton’s administration. He has gone on record with the following statements about UFOs:
I’m skeptical about many things, including the notion that government always knows best, and that the people can’t be trusted with the truth. The time to pull the curtain back on this subject is long overdue. We have statements from the most credible sources – those in a position to know – about a fascinating phenomenon, the nature of which is yet to be determined.
A number of years ago he made an appearance at the National Press Club emphasizing the same thing. You can watch that clip here.
As you can see, this topic is now receiving a lot of mainstream media coverage, so much so that Hillary Clinton has promised she will try to achieve disclosure of American UFO files to the public.
On the left you will see a picture of Hillary Clinton with Laurence Rockefeller which was recently published in the New York Times. The book you see Hillary Clinton holding is titled Are We Alone? It was written by Paul Davies, a respected American physicist who has held professorships at various universities. Most of his research has been focused on quantum field theory. The book ponders the ramifications of contact with intelligent extraterrestrials, and we published an article on the implications of this photo that you can access here.
Laurence was a big proponent of getting this information out into the public domain, and although Hillary Clinton does not appear to be the favourite presidential candidate, it seems she will be the one to officially disclose American UFO files. This picture at the very least confirms that she has been interested in the topic for some time.
I do wonder if Hillary is using our interest in UFOs to gain more votes, but there is no way to know that for certain. Regardless of her intentions, we here at Collective Evolution believe that voting only offers the illusion of democracy. Theodore Roosevelt told us that ‘presidents are selected, not elected,’ and he wasn’t the only one to do so. The entire superdelegate process in itself completely undermines democracy, and it appears that Hillary’s path to the presidency was carved out long before anybody even know she would travel it. This is why it looks like ‘UFO’ disclosure is on its way.
Important Things To Remember About Government UFO Disclosure
It’s a shame that mainstream media and Western governments have spread so much misinformation. People trust them implicitly, making it easy for them to twist the truth for their own ends. So even if they do offer official remarks about UFOs, it’s unlikely that they will be honest when doing so. If the ‘war on terror’ and the ‘war on drugs’ are any indication, we should be wary of anything they tell us about UFOs. But it should be clear to anyone who has researched this subject that powerful and influential people take it very seriously. Whatever information does get released will not be the whole of it.
Why do we always wait until the government or the media verifies something in order to believe it’s true? Why do we assume that anyone without these official credentials is lying, or crazy, or both? If we simply did our own research, we could come to our own conclusions and we wouldn’t be so easily fooled when these official sources lie to us. There is so much information out there and so much evidence to support not only the existence of UFOs but of extraterrestrials as well. We don’t need the government to tell us what is already apparent. We just need to do independent research and think for ourselves.
If you’d like to learn more about this subject, you can start with the two articles I’ve linked below, as well as a book recommendation. These articles are a good starting point to get you up to speed on some of the information that’s already out there.

Is Turkey hiding alien encounters?
The Sirius Space Sciences Research Center displays visuals of alleged UFO sightings in Manisa, Turkey, May 24, 2015.
(photo by SIRIUS SPACE SCIENCES RESEARCH CENTER/Koray Arguz)
Is Turkey hiding alien encounters?
I was on holiday in Bodrum in July 2014 when at about 5 p.m. a strange, bright object appeared in the sky. My first thought was that this was a balloon, but a balloon would not appear so large from that altitude. Moreover, the object was emitting a bright light and moving faster than a balloon. It disappeared in 10-15 seconds. It had taken me by surprise, and I was uncertain if I had just seen a UFO.
Summary⎙ Print The number of UFO sightings over Turkey has significantly increased in the past few years, with some Turkish Airlines pilots convinced that the bright lights in the Turkish airspace are in fact UFOs.
Bodrum is one of the most popular resort towns in Turkey, where foreign and local tourists flock to in the summer months. Announcing in public that I had just seen a UFO would have surely resulted in responses mocking my observation. Since I wasn’t sure of what I had seen, I didn’t make a fuss out of it and just told my wife, who replied, ”It could be something else such as a laser show.”
But two days later, the newspapers carried reports that a UFO had been seen from Bodrum. The Sirius UFO Space Sciences Research Center that studied the photos taken by three people in Bodrum asserted that it was indeed a UFO and posted the photos on its website. Skeptical citizens came up with explanations such as “It could be the Ramadan cannon” (marking the end of the fasting day) and “The end of the world must be near.”
Then started a flow of reports from citizens who recounted having seen UFOs, the latest of which was taken rather seriously when two Turkish Airlines pilots from the same plane reported having seen one. On May 20, pilots of a Turkish Airlines Boeing 737 flying from Bodrum to Istanbul reported seeing an unidentified object emitting green light at an altitude of about 17,000 feet crossing over them as they approached the airport around 11:30 p.m. The following is what the pilots reported to air traffic control at Istanbul Ataturk Airport: “An unidentified object emitting green light crossed in front of us at a distance of 2,000-3,000 feet and disappeared. We think it is a UFO. Both pilots saw the object.”
Airport officials, however, reported no such detection on their radars, and Turkish Airlines Flight 2525 landed at the airport at 00:37 a.m. A senior Turkish Airlines pilot commented on his colleague's report to daily Hurriyet, saying, “They were able to report a UFO because they were in Turkish airspace. They couldn’t have said this in European airspace to avoid embarrassment.”
The news spread fast globally. British newspapers Daily Mail and Daily Mirror gave it headline coverage and reported that 500 miles away an Egyptian plane had crashed into the Mediterranean Sea about an hour after the pilots had reported seeing the UFO. However, both papers mixed up the days as the Egyptian plane had crashed a day before the UFO sighting. Turkish newspapers mocked the British papers for trying to start a conspiracy and said it was the British newspapers that had veered off course.
While the report of the Turkish Airlines pilots was not confirmed by the authorities, a Turkish tourist from the Dead Sea-Fethiye resort in the south of the country offered new evidence. On the day of the sighting, Celal Toprakci — who was photographing his daughter paragliding around 5 p.m. — noticed an object emitting green light moving east to west. Toprakci could not understand what he had seen, but after returning to his hotel he heard on TV the report by the two pilots. “I looked at the four frames I had photographed and noted a green object had moved from my right to my left and then disappeared over the horizon,” Toprakci said.
Hakan Akdogan, the chairman of the Sirius UFO Space Sciences Research Center, insisted the pilots had actually seen a UFO. He told Al-Monitor, “Two pilots saw the object simultaneously. These are people who can distinguish what they see in the sky and they say it passed close to them. In UFO literature, a 600-meter proximity is not easily encountered. This report does mesh with conventional technology. Anyhow, there shouldn’t be any other object in the landing path of a plane. The fact that the object was not detected by radar means it was an extraterrestrial object. Moreover, the photographs taken by a tourist at Fethiye confirms the sighting of the pilots.”
Last year, Ibrahim Bilir — a Turkish Airlines pilot with 40 years of flight experience — said that in 2010 returning from Osaka his team had seen a UFO at an altitude of 11,000 meters. “We were flying with three pilots. Four other planes were flying in the same direction. In front of me was a Turkish Airlines flight from Shanghai and behind me was a Lufthansa flight. We saw a bright light approaching that came very close. It was silver-colored, very bright and was extremely powerful; it burned our eyes. All three pilots on our plane saw it; it came toward us and flew over us, all in 30-45 seconds. If I had been the only witness, you could say it was a hallucination. But the crews of all four planes saw it.”
In Turkey, UFO events are monitored by the Sirius center. According to their records, last year between April 1 and Oct. 28 there were 3,640 reports of UFO sightings; 526 of them were recorded on camera, and 468 of them could have been satellites, Chinese lanterns, birds, balloons, photoshopped photos, light reflections or simple mistakes. A total of 79 were confirmed as UFOs.
In 2012, UFO reports went up by 35% compared to the year before, and that trend continued with a 45% increase in 2013 and a 60% increase in 2014. Akdogan said, “We predict that UFO sightings will seriously increase in Turkey and internationally in the coming years, and 2016-2020 will be a turning point in UFO sightings. We believe that governments will then have to reveal the realities they have been concealing.”
The world has been witnessing these kinds of sightings for many years; reports keep piling up but governments are yet to acknowledge the phenomenon. Akdogan added, “The states know about it. They have evidence, but their citizens have to be prepared for this reality on a psychological level with appropriate information. This is what films accomplish right now.”

NASA’s Curiosity Rover Beams Back Photos of Possible Astronaut Found on Mars
NASA’s Curiosity Rover Beams Back Photos of Possible Astronaut Found on Mars
Recent photos beamed back by NASA’s Curiosity rover of a shadowy figure that’s strongly resembling an astronaut may prove that intelligent lifeforms are already operating on the surface of Mars.
There are still countless mysteries on our planet waiting to be unraveled. When it comes to other alien worlds such as Mars, the matter heightens to a staggering proportion, considering that all information originating from this not-so-far-away place is only revealed by a few space agencies.
Are we able to draw clear conclusions based on only what they serve us? And even more, can we truly affirm that no human beings have set foot on the Red Planet so far?
To better understand the above questions, I’ll present you with a pile of peculiar photos captured during Curiosity’s mission, where an alleged shadow of an astronaut can be observed just near the rover.
Although the shadowy figure can be interpreted in many ways, there’s no denial that it strongly resembles an astronaut that’s taking care of technical issues encountered by the earthly rover.
Its defined shape is noticed not in one, but in four photos taken over a period of 45 minutes. It constantly changes position, and the last two pictures expose it while bent over the back panel. So can this hypothesis of an astronauts taking care of our rover have any solid background?
According to Scott C. Waring from ufosightingsdaily, this is not the only case when an unusual shadow slips into an official picture. A few years ago, a man stumbled across another similar shadow of a presumed astronaut equipped with an oxygen tank that appears to be fixing the rover.
Can these two appearances be considered a case of pareidolia – a psychological phenomenon that links something inexistent to a familiar pattern? Or rather a true fact that our minds refuse to acknowledge because of the social standards we’re all accustomed to?
The UFO community finds this catch to be clear evidence that something is wrong with this entire Martian mission, if it’s really Mars we’re talking about. Scott Waring who posted this amazing discovery on his blog has an interesting point of view on this:
“I was checking out the newest Curiosity rover photos on the NASA site and found four of them with the shadow of an astronaut in spacesuit that appears to be fixing the rover. This just goes to show the public that the rover is being maintained by humans on Mars, and that there are other spacecraft kept secret from the public that carry a person to Mars in just a few minutes.”
He added another remark that’s a bit unrealistic, but worth the mention:
“I got a Taiwanese friend who works at NASA right now. He said a few years ago that he saw a blue/green wheel spacecraft that hovers like a turning wheel and can carry an astronaut at about 1/20 the speed of light. That’s fast, and would get you to the moon in about 30 seconds.”
Such a scenario is not that hard to imagine considering the technological advancement in recent years (not to mention the hidden toys of the military), but I think that it’s highly unlikely because, even if we could achieve such speeds, the human body will be unable to withstand the atmospheric pressure.
Whatever the case, the shadowy figure found in close vicinity to Curiosity is sure to raise a lot of question marks.
Are there already astronauts on the Red Planet operating in secrecy for NASA and other space agencies? Or maybe we have already designed a form of artificially intelligent robot that’s helping maintain the rovers. Mars is clearly the perfect testing ground for such a machinery.
Other UFO enthusiasts have once again proposed the idea of Curiosity rover being somewhere on Devon Island, Canada, instead of Mars. This is a reasonable point of view that would explain the presence of human beings (or just beings) in spacesuits.
However, these remain only speculations based on our disbelief in governmental institutions, but there’s a good chance for this to be more than just a conspiracy theory.
It is possible that humanity may be at the threshold of the most important moment in its history; contact with an extraterrestrial civilization may be imminent.
Until now, this has been the topic of science fiction books and films. But scientifically speaking, the Universe is too big to maintain only one civilization, the human one.
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) was started in the past century, with many projects that were funded by the U.S. government and by private sources. For the moment, nothing has been found to confirm its existence, or if anything has been found, it has not been announced to the public. However, planets have been discovered in our galaxy that indicate similarities with Earth and possibilities of life on those planets.
A few months ago, according to unverified information, there was a meeting of a committee of the U.N., comprised of the permanent members of the Security Council that deals with such issues. It had been the first time in many years that the committee had met and of course very few humans know what was discussed.
Then something very interesting happened. One month after the visit of the Pope to the U.S., the Vatican daily,“L’Osservatore Romano,” hosted an interview on May 13 with the director of the Vatican’s Observatory, titled “The alien is my brother,” in which he says some very important things.
Let us read the contents of his interview.
When he was asked about the possibility of extraterrestrial life, he responded by saying,
“It is possible, even if until now we have no proof. But certainly in such a big universe, this hypothesis cannot be excluded.”
Asked if he sees a contradiction between the Catholic faith and believing in aliens he replied,
“I think there isn’t a contradiction. Just as there is a multiplicity of creatures on the earth, so there could be other beings, even intelligent beings, created by God. This is not in contradiction with our faith, because we cannot establish limits to God’s creative freedom. To say it with St. Francis’ words, if we can consider some earthly creatures as brothers or sisters, why could we not speak of a brother alien? He would also belong to creation.”
It is important to note that the Vatican, for the first time in its history, issued a statement of that kind. And the Vatican never makes statements unless there is a reason.
Objectively there is no reason for the Vatican to make such a statement at this time.
Subjectively there may be a reason that humanity does not yet know about.
Let us be more concrete.
When there were contacts between civilizations on Earth in the past, what usually happened was that the stronger one influenced or absorbed the weaker one or that the weaker one died out. This is one of the reasons that the Neanderthal race of humans disappeared and Homo sapiens prevailed. If there was to be contact between humanity and an extraterrestrial civilization, the first casualty could be the religions of Earth, if it were proven that the existence of extraterrestrial life would contradict human religions.
In order to prevent the collapse of human religions, which could lead to chaos and to the loss of the planet’s religious institutions’ power, the Vatican made an effective pre-emptive strike by announcing that no such contradiction exists.
Consequently it is possible that contact between humanity and an extraterrestrial civilization may be imminent and that technical details of such an encounter may be in the process of being worked out. This would explain the Vatican statement.
If that were the case, then all the other problems of the planet would become temporarily irrelevant, in view of the importance of such a contact.
But let us wait and see.
Ponder our thoughts, dear humans, for your benefit.
The three small islands of Malta, Gozo and Comino float in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, south of Sicily and east of the Tunesian coastline.
Though small, their history dates back thousands of years – and continues to throw a magical spell on many visitors. And we need to ask whether the modern tourists are the last in a series of sun worshippers that came to these islands.
Various megalithic monuments are located on Malta, dated at approx. 4000 BC.
What is important is that the buildings are unique in style and that their builders – as is so often the case – are unknown.
Malta is by far the biggest of the three islands: it measures 40 km in length and is 20 km wide. The eastern part of the island has the megalithic monuments of Tarxien, Hagar Qim and Mnajdra. The most northern is Tarxien, a vast temple complex that has become surrounded by a modern town. Next to the old temple rises a modern church, as if underlining that what was once sacred, still is.
The megalithic “church” consists out of a series of oval-shaped “chapels” – typical for the Maltese temple structure.
The temple of Tarxien is unique as it holds its own spring. Archaeological finds in the form of vessels suggest that water must have played an important role on this site – and it is more likely that the role of the spring and its water was spiritual, rather than economic.
Better known is the subterranean chamber complex nearby: the famous Hypogeum, dating from the 4th and 3rd millennium BC. It is here that the remains of no less than 7000 people were discovered. Archaeologists believe that both Mnajdra and the Hypogeum should be considered as one whole, but as the purpose they served, that remains an open question. Was the Hypogeum a temple of the dead, a cemetery? Certain finds inside do suggest that rituals were held inside the complex.
The sites are located in the middle of a modern town, which makes it difficult to imagine the temples in a more original setting. But that setting can be perceived in the southern parts of Malta.
On a slope near the coastline are the temples of Hagar Qim and Mnajdra.
Both temples are close to each, a few hundred meters apart. Again, it suggests that both temples were part of one complex. When the complex is approached from the direction of Tarxien, the visitor finds himself in a valley that leads to the sea. It is there that the famous “Blue Grotto” can be found, an impressive display of nature that for modern tourists is still considered to be a “must see”.
It is perhaps this natural wonder that might explain the presence nearby of the temple complex, as it is located at a mere few hundred meters.
Hagar Qim is the most impressive of all Maltese monuments. The finesse that was used to join the stones can be compared with the precision employed in the Valley Temple, next to the Sphinx, at Gizeh (Egypt), where the builders equally carved out massive stones and placed them together as if it was the easiest job in the world.
But it is only the massive size of the stones that allows for such a comparison. Other than that, both sites have their own unique design and decoration. Still, as we know, that the Hagar Qim monument predates the Valley Temple with many centuries… could this Maltese knowledge of working with giant stones have made it into Egypt?
The small island of Gozo also has a megalithic temple: Ggantija. The name is derived from local folklore, which says that only giants (gigantes) would have been able to construct such a complex. Its folklore is just a modern remain of the legendary importance the Greeks had instilled on the island.
In Greek mythology, Gozo was the island where the nymph Calypso held Odysseus imprisoned for no less than 7 years. Her cave is situated near the temple, with the cave offering one of the most stunning view of the most famous sandy beach of the island.
If Odysseus was indeed imprisoned here, the view from his prison window was excellent.
The temple of Ggantija contains – according to UNESCO – the largest free standing stone in the world.
In itself, this is not that impressive, as there are larger stones elsewhere – they are just not free standing. Nevertheless, Ggantija is yet another impressive temple. What is very intriguing is that north of the temple itself, a stone circle can be found – showing that “classic megalithic monuments” were also constructed on the island.
It is here that archaeologist, in 1987, uncovered human skeletons. The Xaghra stone circle furthermore has a subterranean complex of natural caves, which seem to have been used as a cemetery – thus apparently identifying this location as a Gozo counterpart of the Hypogeum on Malta’s mainland.
The presence of a temple connected with a subterranean cemetery seems to hint at rituals to do with the dead. Perhaps the temples – as was popular elsewhere – might also have been used by priests, employed to contact the ancestors.
As there are no written traditions, at present, it is important to be more prudent and thus conclude that perhaps the temples and underground complexes were merely used for funerary rituals.
The megalithic monuments no longer have a roof, but drawings that date from previous centuries and small models that were left by the megalithic builders themselves reveal that the temples once were roofed. If the roof was made from stone, then it is a major enigma where they disappeared to.
Perhaps it is more like that other material was therefore used.
Still, some archaeologists have concluded that stone would have been the preferred material for the roof – as such a roof would have been virtually impossible to build, they have concluded the temples never had a roof. Still, if we assume that the temples did have a roof – made of stone – than these structures would have closely resembled caves: artificial caves, made to resemble the natural caves?
Many temples are decorated with spirals, and the temples have oval shaped chapels. Certain temples have three ovals, though most have seven. Most temples also contained statues, though most have been partially destroyed – either by the passing of time, or by a deliberate act of destruction at some point in the past. Some of the statues seem to be of a giant woman, with giant breasts, thighs and arms.
Were they statues of the Mother Goddess?
Many archaeologists believe this is indeed the case, though certainty should not be confused with belief in such cases.
Though many archaeological discoveries have occurred in the last century, certain questions remain open: who were the people that build these temples? Where did they come from?
Apart from the temple, there are also the enigmatic “cart ruts”, which can be found in certain sections of the island. What purpose they served is unknown, but some speculate that they may have been markings in the rocky surface which would allow cows or bulls to follow the grooves, “guided” as it were by a mechanism that connected them to the ruts.
This theory has become a hot topic of debate, even though near one car rut, a wheel, made from lava stone, was discovered. Perhaps they had an astronomical purpose, but if so, it is highly improbable that this can ever be proven. At present, the most likely possibility is that they will remain a mystery… though a major discovery seems to be made approximately every decade, so one will never know…
Malta is an island; the closest land – Sicily – is invisible from its shores. Was Malta on par with Crete, as a site of a very ancient culture? There are certain parallels between the two islands. First of all, though both islands have their unique style, the general layout is largely identical: the presence of temples is in the eastern second of the island, close to the sea, and mostly in the northern and southern part (of that eastern section). They are – furthermore – temples: buildings.
At the same time, they are separated by 2000 years. But as on Crete, it is clear that there is an interrelationship with caves and temple complexes – though the caves of Malta could never be found at the altitudes that some of the Cretan mountains rise to. Finally, some of the artifacts recovered from the sites are identical to artifacts recovered at e.g. Knossos, specifically the vessel.
Though such comparisons can be made, it does not explain why Malta was chosen, and not Sicily. Certain demographic conditions might have already existed so many millennia ago that did not allow these people to build there – but perhaps there is a reason why Malta was specifically chosen.
Malta has a unique climate: an incredible amount of sunshine, a statistic it shares with e.g. Carnac in France, where other major monuments are found. Furthermore, the Carnac structures were constructed at roughly the same time as the monuments of Malta. Were the people of Malta solar worshippers?
The possibility that the religion of the Maltese temple builders was sun worship seems likely, particularly when certain information, identified by Joseph Ellul, is taken into account. Ellul’s father was the caretaker of the Hagar Qim complex – a privileged position to learn much about the complex and be confronted with a wide variety of visitors, each giving their insights.
As a result, Ellul was able to identify that certain chapels of the complex were carefully orientated towards the sunrise and sunset of the equinoxes and solstices (e.g. December 21 and June 21). The moon was also an important phenomenon, specifically its 19 year Metonic period. Certain doors “frame” the full moon at the start of this cycle, which also shows that the planning of these complexes must have taken many decades.
Perhaps it is indeed the fact that Malta is an island which has set it apart by the temple builders. Many ancient religions speak of an island, where the sun god had created the world.
In Egypt, this was the god Atum, who masturbated the world in existence. In the French town of Carnac, we find an artificial hill, on top of which can be found specifically phallic-like standing stones. We note that the Mother Goddess statues of Malta might perhaps be more displays of fertility – and hence creation: pregnancy, when breasts become larger than they normally are.
The Maltese builders did not leave us any written documents. The quest for the final answer continues. But it is clear that Malta is no longer the enigma that it once was. It has certain unique characteristics, but also some features that can be found elsewhere.
If the voices of the old giants could speak…
An island near the coastline of the Hagar Qim: does it feature in the legends of an island of creation?
Declassified Documents Reveal Project Horizon: The Lunar Outpost of the US Army
Declassified Documents Reveal Project Horizon: The Lunar Outpost of the US Army
Declassified documents reveal Project Horizon 1959: Plans of the United States Army to build a manned lunar outpost.
“The establishment of a manned base of operations on the moon has tremendous military and scientific potential. Because invaluable scientific, military, and political prestige will come to the nation that first establishes a lunar base, it is imperative that the United States be first.“ (Source)
It isn’t a secret that Earth’s moon has been considered as a critical strategic celestial body. Looking back at history, we will find that numerous countries had planned ‘scientific’ outposts on its surface. However, there are certain documents that have only recently revealed militarization projects of the moon. There is a requirement for a manned military outpost on the moon. The lunar outpost is required to develop and protect potential United States interests on the moon; to develop techniques in moon-based surveillance of the earth and space, in communications relay, and in operations on the surface of the moon; to serve as a base for exploration of the moon, for further exploration into space and for military operations on the moon if required; and to support scientific investigations on the moon. (Source)
On June 9, 1959, the United States Government decided that the construction of a lunar outpost is of great importance to the country. Project Horizon: The establishment of a Lunar Outpost was created in response to growing interest of other nations, like the Soviet Union in the militarization and exploration of the moon. However, its primary goal was to protect potential United States interests on the lunar surface.
During 1959, the Space Race was adopting a whole new level. Two years after the initial proposal of Project Horizon, the first Apollo mission would launch, on October 27, 1961, creating a new chapter in the history of mankind. However, countries around the globe –primarly the US and the Soviet Union—werent only planning traveling to the moon and placing astronauts into orbit around the planet, their plans were way ahead of time, and they had numerous projects already lined up that would have kickstarted the militarization of our solar system.
The rapid advances in propulsion, electronics and space medicine and other astronautical sciences in the 1950’s would have allowed the successful construction of a military outpost on the moon.
“To be second to the Soviet Union in establishing an outpost on the moon would be disastrous to our nation’s prestige and in turn to our democratic philosophy. Although it is contrary to United States policy, the Soviet Union in establishing the first permanent base may claim the moon or critical areas thereof for its own.“ (Source)
The outpost was planned to be of sufficient size in order to contain sufficient equipment that would later be used in the militarization and exploration of the moon. The military outpost was designed in order to allow the survival and moderate, constructive activity of ONE person, and 10-20 on a sustained basis.
During planning, researchers considered that the outpost needed to be designed for expansion facilities, supply and operation of personnel in order to maintain the maximum extension of sustained occupancy. The futuristic project of 1959 was planned to be self-sufficient for as long as possible without any additional support from Earth.
However, not only was Project Horizon the first step of lunar militarization, the base was designed so it could sever as a permanent manned installation on the moon, which eventually would allow the investigation of scientific, commercial and military potential on the lunar surface.
The lunar outpost was intended to serve as an observation post which would facilitate –in the near future—travel between Earth, the moon and eventual exploration of our solar system and outer space.
The establishment of a manned US outpost on the moon will:
Demonstrate the United States scientific leadership in outer space
Support scientific explorations and investigations.
Extend and improve space reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities and control of space.
Extend and improve communications and serve as a communications relay station.
Provide a basic and supporting research laboratory for space research and development activity.
Develop a stable, low-gravity outpost for use as a launch site for deep space exploration.
Provide an opportunity for scientific exploration and development of a space mapping and survey system.
Provide an emergency staging area, rescue capability or navigational aid for other space activity.
Project Horizon included a ‘sophisticated’ defense system that would be incorporated into the lunar outpost. The base would be defended against Soviet overland attack by man-fired weapons
Unguided Davy Crockett rockets with low-yield nuclear warheads
Conventional Claymore mines modified to puncture pressure suits
Take in count that all of this was possible in 1959. Over half a century later, with the numerous technological advancements, just imagine what we are capable of.
To my knowledge, this maybe the first time that somebody is telling the rest of the world about subterranean UFO Bases he has found. I suppose there is a first time for everything.
On the map further up this report is a reference to the “Mount Dragon UFO Base” entrance. This is definitely a current UFO Base used by Aliens. The entrance to this subterranean Base is a waterfall-lake about 2,500 feet high on the western side of a 5-kilometre long valley, and is approximately 8-kilometres from the coast.
I spent several months living in a village called “Chapuru”, of Cape Esperance, which is north on the coast from the “Subterranean Terrestrial UFO Base” (ST’s new word), and in this area, the Alien activity from this Base is seen of regularly, meaning like nearly every night. During the time I lived at this village, I began to lose count of these UFO sightings at around 60 times, but I do remember estimating that it would be 100 by now.
The reason why I eventually called this unnamed mountain UFO Base entrance “Mt. Dragon” is because the Guadalcanal people who live in this area call these flying ‘balls-of-light’ UFOs, “Dragon Snakes”.
To the people of Northwest Guadalcanal, as they have been observing these “Dragon Snakes” for well over a century, and most probably much longer, although they fear them because people have been killed, injured, or have gone missing due of them, they generally give them no more of a second thought unless in close proximity, as they can be found flying around in the area nearly every night.
As an example of this accepted part of life, about a kilometer East from “Chapuru”, the village I once lived, the current Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands, Prime Minister “Sir Alan Kemakeza’s” main residence is found, and he has seen these UFOs many more times than I have. “Ezekiel Alebua”, a once Prime Minister, the previous Guadalcanal Premier, and Guadalcanal Minister again, also knows of the Waterfall Lake UFO Base entrance.
You can ask anyone from Northwest Guadalcanal about their UFOs, and I mean anyone about them and they will tell you heaps, as they are seen of virtually every night and have been for well over a century.
That is if the American led Australian Solomon Islands Government allows Tourism to continue in the Solomon Islands and doesn’t place restricted no go zones everywhere.
As these sightings did not always become second nature to me, after some extensive investigation to find out where these UFOs go when they were not flying around, over a six-day period there and back, myself and another Guadalcanal friend made an arduous trip to this UFO Base, and from a hidden position in the nearby mountains above it, was when we first discovered that there was more than one “UFO/Dragon Snake” using this place as one of their residence in the Solomon Islands.
This Alien Base is still there today. Apart from all the people of the area, the best person to confirm this Base and its position is “Ezekiel Alebua”. Also, may I say, the current Solomon Island’s Prime Minister, “Sir Allan Kemakeza”, who I know, being from Guadalcanal, knows all about the Giant race existing on his Island, but was unaware of the real reasons why the Australian Prime Minister after many years all of a sudden had a change of heart and started offering assistance with a military interdiction immediately after he got back from visiting the American President.
You cannot tell me that the Americans, British and Australians do not know of these UFO Bases, because I have overwhelming proof that they do. The current ‘Solomon Islands Interdiction’ by the American led Australian Multinational Forces has been named, “Operation Helpem Friend”. No More! Hemi “Operation Containem, and Bringem Come Oil and Gas”.
Incidentally, it was during my adventurous stay at this village that I first began to learn about the Giants of Guadalcanal also.
On the map above is shown the entrances of the UFO Base located in the Central East Coast of Malaita that I know of, and the location of the ‘Ramo mountain remanence’ mentioned.
The question mark represents:
“I know there is some kind of base in that location somewhere too”.
Although one pin is missing near the left-hand arrow, I believe that cluster of pins are all entrances that make up one big UFO Base under the Island.
Contrary to popular belief, NASA, or whoever that mob was, first made contact with the Aliens at the subterranean UFO Base of Central East Malaita in 1961. No doubt this is one of the ways of how they began to gain what partial secret technology that they have today. Back then; during the height of the ‘Cold War’ in attempts to gain technological advantages, they blackmailed these particular Aliens.
This all happened because when the great British Geologist “Mr. Gropher” was doing his few expeditions in the area in-between 1958-1960, he first saw these UFOs and then reported them back to England. In 1961, a Whiteman who claimed himself to be from NASA came to that part of the Island and asked assistance from my wife’s relatives to take him to the UFO subterranean Base entrances, which they did.
Requesting privacy, they left him at the desert coast above the UFO Base. This self-claimed NASA guy (or whoever he was) was gone a week, during which somehow he made contact with these Aliens, until he arrived again, when he asked my wife’s relatives once again for further assistance to take him back from where he came. Most of the people of Kwaio and Kwara’ae know of this NASA guy happening.
In the map above, you will notice the right-hand red pushpin on the east coast with an arrow pointing at it. This is a 50-meter in diameter ‘bottomless circular reef’ in amongst the surrounding 10-meter deep coral reef and is few miles North of ‘Kwoi Island,’ (which is on the border of the Kwaio and Kwara’ae tribes) and South of Namo’ere’ere of Central East Malaita. “Singalanggu Harbour” is slightly further south.
“Balls-of-light” UFOs can be seen going in-and-out of that bottomless circular reef virtually every night. My friends like fishing down this UFO hole during the daytime, because it saves them going out to the danger of the ocean, as lots of big fish like found in the ocean can be found down there.
They have let down over hundred 200 meters of 100 lb line and it still hasn’t hit the bottom. I always think of this hole being made by a huge spaceship that hovered above it and shot a huge laser into the crust of the earth.
Maybe the Australian minesweeper currently in the Solomon’s could go over this UFO hole to determine for us all how deep it is, that is, if they don’t know already. I mean to say, the minesweeper really does belong to us “Australian” taxpayers, and because we are paying 300 million dollars a year to contain these momentous world scattering discoveries instead of putting it into the much in-need hospitals, dental, and education services, just to name a few, maybe they could do this and let us all what they found out.
The left-hand pushpin with the arrow, directly inland from that circular-reef hole UFO Base entrance, about 3-4 miles on the mainland of the Island is a lake of which when the boys are out fishing at night, the UFOs can be seen going in that lake and coming out the circular-reef, or vice-versa. Both entrances are definitely connected. I personally have only seen their activities at the lake in this area.
A UFO coming out of this lake at dusk, incinerated my good friend’s Grandfather, and everyone in the area knows about it. These Aliens, for the want of another name, have installed fear in these people for generations, and many people have gone missing, and I think I know where they are. In the Kwaio and Kwara’ae area are three other entrances in their jungle mountains that I know of, where these ‘balls of light’ type UFO vehicles can be seen going in-and-out.
It is my belief that all these entrances are not individual Bases, but are all connected making up one big one under the Island. I may be wrong, but I also believe one of the many reasons why they there, is that, for reasons of their own, they have been mining a very rare type of gemstone under this highly mineralized Kimberlite base carrying rock volcanic Island of multitude type gemstones.
The rare gemstones of the Alien’s interest that my wife’s relatives possess have a far higher specific gravity than that of diamonds, and a refractive index that when you put the stone in sunlight, you see your mirror image deep in the centre of the stone. Also, holding them to the sun, they are a very deep transparent silvery-blue. For their size, they are noticeably extremely heavy.
I once had one of these “E.T. Stones” that was 32.4 caret, which had these characteristics. Ironically enough, the more customary people of this Island call these particular UFOs “Diamond Snakes”, and there are some old folklore stories supporting the Alien’s interest in these unique gemstones.
As there are many remanence of the “Ramo civilization” to be found on top of the Island, and “the Aliens” underneath for what appears has been a very long time, there is every chance there is a connection between the two. And that goes for Guadalcanal also.I can only speculate about remote Choiseul, but that wouldn’t surprise me in the least, as I know that they also have quite a lot of Giants, and a lot of UFO traffic over that way too.
Nevertheless, if there ever were a place that one could call “UFO Headquarters”, it would have to be Central East Malaita. Mind you, these are only the ones I know of.
Goodness knows what other UFO Bases are really in the rest of the Solomon Islands.
Zijn we alleen? Beelden vanuit het ISS tonen vuurbal-achtige UFO die door de ruimte schiet
Zijn we alleen? Beelden vanuit het ISS tonen vuurbal-achtige UFO die door de ruimte schiet
Opmerkelijke beelden uit het internationale ruimtestation ISS donderdag. In een video die door de UFO-onderzoekers van SecureTeam 10 op YouTube is geplaatst, is een mysterieuze vuurbal te zien.
Er is nu een debat ontstaan over de vraag of de vuurbal in werkelijkheid een buitenaards ruimteschip is. Onder het filmpje, dat binnen enkele uren na publicatie tienduizenden keren werd bekeken, stromen de reacties binnen. Sommigen denken dat het een komeet of een meteoor is, terwijl anderen er zeker van zijn dat het een UFO is.
Rode lichten
“Deze indrukwekkende beelden zijn enkele minuten geleden naar me opgestuurd,” vertelde Tyler Glockner van SecureTeam 10 aan de Britse Daily Mirror. “We hebben veel filmpjes van het ISS waarin deze UFO’s te zien zijn.”
Volgens Glockner kan het object geen vuurbal zijn omdat er geen zuurstof is in de ruimte en materiaal om die reden niet kan verbranden. “Het [object] doemt uit het niets op, vliegt achter het ISS langs en vlak voor het verdwijnt kunnen we rode lichten zien die op het ISS schijnen,” zei hij.
Beeld op zwart
Veel mensen zeggen echter dat de vuurbal een meteoor is die de dampkring van de aarde binnenkomt. “Het is een meteoor,” zei iemand. “Als je de rand van de aarde volgt kom je uit bij de plek waar de ‘UFO’ verscheen. Het is duidelijk een meteoor die de atmosfeer binnengaat.”
“Lijkt op de meteoriet die boven Arizona explodeerde,” schreef iemand anders.
Complottheoretici hebben zo hun eigen ideeën. “Afgelopen jaar keek ik twee keer naar de livefeed van het ISS en beide keren zag ik binnen een kwartier een schip verschijnen waarna het beeld op zwart ging.”
Een recente aflevering van het Spaanstalige Amerikaanse tv-programma Al Rojo Vivo stond in het teken van UFO-waarnemingen in het zuidoosten van Bolivia. Verschillende inwoners van het dorp Chochís zeggen schepen in de lucht te hebben gezien.
Eén van hen, Franklin Rivero, zag naar eigen zeggen een UFO-vloot boven het gebied. Hij legde ook vreemde lichten vast op camera. Er komen zelfs toeristen naar de regio om UFO’s te spotten.
‘Buitenaards wezen’
Afgelopen maand was Bolivia in de ban van een ‘buitenaards wezen’ dat uit een UFO zou zijn gestapt en zou hebben rondgewandeld in een buitenwijk van de Boliviaanse stad Santa Cruz. Toen het de aandacht van lokale bewoners trok, zou het weer terug naar zijn ‘schip’ zijn gegaan, meldden Boliviaanse media. Getuigen lieten aan de hand van een tekening zien hoe het wezen er volgens hun uitzag.
Eind vorig jaar beroerden beelden van een vliegend voorwerp boven een gebergte in Bolivia het internet. UFO-jagers waren er rotsvast van overtuigd dat het om bezoek van buitenaardse wezens ging.
Cirkelvormig object
Het onbekende object werd op 6 december waargenomen boven een bergketen bij El Alto. Er was een cirkelvormig object te zien dat traag boven de horizon bewoog. Vervolgens schoot het met hoge snelheid weg en verdween het in de wolken.

Ontdekking dat heelal veel sneller uitdijt dan gedacht druist in tegen theorie van Einstein
Een team astronomen onder leiding van Nobelprijswinnaar Adam Riess heeft met gegevens van ruimtetelescoop Hubble ontdekt dat de uitdijing van het heelal veel sneller verloopt dan gedacht. Dat heeft de NASA bekendgemaakt. De ontdekking roept vragen op over de juistheid van de relativiteitstheorie van Albert Einstein.
Met behulp van de Hubble hebben de wetenschappers afstanden tussen sterren in 19 nabije en verre sterrenstelsels nauwkeuriger dan ooit gemeten. Ze kwamen tot de conclusie dat het universum bijna 10 procent sneller uitdijt dan het aanvankelijk berekende tempo.
Onbekende deeltjes
Dit kan tot belangrijke nieuwe inzichten leiden over wat het nu precies is dat het universum voor 95 procent vult en geen licht of straling uitzendt. Een mogelijkheid voor de afwijking is dat het heelal onbekende subatomaire deeltjes bevat, die lijken op neutrino’s en die de lichtsnelheid van 300.000 kilometer per seconde naderen.
Een ander idee is dat donkere energie, een in 1998 ontdekte maar nog altijd mysterieuze vorm van energie, sterrenstelsels met grote kracht uit elkaar trekt. De hoge acceleratie kan ook betekenen dat de donkere materie een aantal onbekende, vreemde kenmerken heeft.
Mogelijk deels onjuist
“Je begint bij de twee uiteinden en verwacht elkaar ergens in het midden tegen te komen als al je metingen kloppen,” zei Riess, die verbonden is aan het Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore. “Maar nu liggen beide bevindingen heel ver uit elkaar en we weten niet precies waarom.”
De ontdekking betekent ook dat de algemene relativiteitstheorie van Albert Einstein – die gebruikt wordt om te berekenen hoe de fundamentele bouwstenen van de materie op elkaar inwerken – mogelijk deels onjuist is.
Kids tested material from Roswell UFO debris, claims witness
Kids tested material from Roswell UFO debris, claims witness
In an interview on YouTube posted by a UFO researcher, a woman claims to have obtained material from the famous alleged crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft near Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. She says she was a child at the time, and she and her friend tested the material before having to return it.
The video was posted on YouTube by UFO researcher Mary Joyce, who runs a website called Sky Ships over Cashiers. Via email, Joyce wrote me that she usually transcribes alleged witness testimony and posts it as a story. However, she felt the witness, who chose to remain anonymous, was so compelling in her retelling that she had to let readers experience her words for themselves.
“The woman we call ‘Jill’ painted such great word pictures, and there was such feeling in the way she told her story that written words couldn’t capture it,” explained Joyce. “So we set up our own YouTube channel just so we could posted it as a video.”
Indeed, this video is the only video on their YouTube channel, and Joyce is right. The way Jill articulates her story makes for a compelling and interesting listen. So much so, we wanted to share the story with our readersas well.

Joyce says she had known Jill for years before Jill shared this story with her, and several years have passed since then, before Jill would allow Joyce to share it. Jill and Joyce seem to assume the metal comes from the Roswell incident, and the descriptions given by Jill in the interview are similar to those described by witnesses who allege to have handle debris from the object that crashed in Roswell in 1947.
In the interview (heard above), Jill says, in 1957 she was about 10 years old, and her father was a pilot with the U.S. Air Force. Jill says her father was off on duty all over the world, but was stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force base.
Her father was friends with the father of a boy named John, whom Jill describes as “kind of like my boyfriend.” John’s father was a Colonel, and worked out of a building on the outskirts of the base. John had told Jill that if you look into the building his father works in, you would not see anything because his office is underground. John said his father had to take an elevator down to his office.
Jill described the Colonel as a stoic individual. He was very serious, and not kid-friendly, like her father. However, she did respect the man very much.
One day, John told Jill he had a surprise for her and showed her a strange metal that Jill remembered to be about 8 inches by 11 inches, similar to a sheet of paper. She said it looked like aluminum, but it was heavier. John told her to stand back. He then wadded up the sheet of metal and threw it at Jill. Before the metal could reach her, it transformed back into a flat sheet.
This feature is similar to a property of the metal described by others who say they handled the Roswell debris. In particular, Dr. Jesse Marcel, Jr., who, as a child, handled debris his father alleges to have collected from the Roswell crash site. His father was an Air Force intelligence officer stationed at the Roswell Army Air Field in Julyof 1947.

Marcel Jr. says the metal his father let him play with also would return to its original form when crushed. Marcel is considered one of the most credible sources when it comes to the material. He also had a military background as a flight surgeon.
Jill says John also told her to grab a pair of scissors and try to cut the metal, but they were not able to cut it. Over the next week, the children experimented with testing the metal. They tried to burn it, but it would not get damaged and would remain at room temperature.
The children were careful to keep the metal secret, because John knew he was not supposed to have it.
Even so, soon after, when John saw Jill playing with Silly Puddy, he was so fascinated by the Silly Puddy he offered to trade Jill the mystery metal for the Silly Puddy. After some consideration, Jill accepted. That night, while riding her bike with the metal in her bicycle basket, Jill noticed the metal reacted strangely when light hit it.

However, she was not able to experiment with this new found property. John and his father came to her home and the Colonel asked for the material back. Jill says she could see John was shaken and knew he was in trouble.
The Colonel told Jill she never saw or had the material, and not to tell anyone about it.
“Do you know what cold happen to me if anyone found out you had this?,” he asked her.
He said he could lose his job, and if he did it would be on her.
“I was terrified, of the man, so of course I was not going to say anything,” Jill explained. ” And for many years I didn’t.”
It was a mix of fear and respect that kept Jill silent, and she believed if she had told anyone, John’s father would have lost his job. So she kept the secret for decades, until now.
“Naturally, I asked her why she decided to do the interview,” Joyce wrote me in her email. “She just said, it was time because she was 69-years-old and the people who would be hurt by telling the story were no longer living. She also had to wrestle with her conscience because she had made a solemn promise and she always keeps her promises.”
Joyce believes Jill’s story. She says, “I should add that Jill is a professional who is well known and well respected in the county where we live.”
According to Joyce, she met Jill in 1998, and although Joyce has an interest in UFOs, Jill did not tell her the story about the metal until 2008.
Joyce said, “Of course I thought what a great story this would make and asked her if I could interview her about it. Her answer was ‘Well, I’ll have to think about that.’ Periodically, I’d ask her again and always got that same answer. Then after eight years, she agreed to be interviewed, but I had to promise to always keep her identity a secret. As hard as it is to believe, she hasn’t even told her husband and son.”
But now you know. Listen to the audio in the YouTube video at the top of this story. Hearing the story in Jill’s words is important. Once you have heard Jill’s story, let us know what you think in the comments below.
