In het Joshua Tree National Park in Amerika heeft een bezoeker iets heel merkwaardigs gefilmd.
Wat precies is niet duidelijk, maar het lijkt op een klein wezen dat snel wegrent en even daarna vliegt daadwerkelijk een onbekend object met grote snelheid weg.
De volgende opname is gemaakt in het Joshua Tree National Park in de Amerikaanse staat Californië.
Het Joshua Tree National Park is een nationaal park in het zuiden van de staat Californië in de Verenigde Staten, ten oosten van het gebied tussen Los Angeles en San Diego (ten noorden van Palm Springs). De afmetingen zijn ongeveer 100 km van oost naar west, en 50 km van noord naar zuid.
Volgens de getuige:
We bevonden ons ongeveer een kwartier in het Joshua Tree National Park toen we bij een groepje bomen kwamen en stopten om deze te filmen.
Ik begon met het filmen van het landschap en bewoog langzaam naar rechts, stopte en wilde weer terug naar links.
Net voordat ik dat deed, zie je op de film een wolkje stof omhoog komen bij één van de bomen en even later zie je een klein object rechts weg schieten.
Op de volgende foto zie je linksboven de plek waar de stofwolk werd waargenomen, rechts de uitvergroting van wat daar te zien was en linksonder de plek vanwaar het object even later wegschoot.
Op de twee afbeeldingen hieronder zie je het object met grote snelheid vertrekken.
De man die het heeft gefilmd, is driftig op zoek geweest naar verklaringen, maar heeft die nog niet kunnen vinden.
Hij heeft gezocht naar mogelijke vogels die zo snel kunnen wegvliegen, maar heeft die niet gevonden en bovendien blijkt uit de analyse van de beelden dat het object ook nog van vorm verandert.
De video duurt al met al enkele minuten en vooral aan het einde ervan zijn interessante beelden te zien.
Want, waar het op lijkt, is dat er een klein wezen bij de boom staat, wegrent naar een wachtende UFO die vervolgens met grote snelheid wegvliegt.
Het is hoe dan ook een intrigerende opname waarvoor niemand nog een verklaring heeft kunnen bedenken.

West Virginia witness captures triangle UFO on video
A West Virginia witness at Barbour County reported watching and videotaping an object with four lights in a triangle shape, according to Case 79238 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was outside at Stonewall Resort with three others at 6:18 a.m. on September 5, 2016, when the incident began.
“We were heading to the top of the hill to get our machinery out for the morning job,” the witness stated.“It was pretty dark out still so we sat there waiting for it to get a bit brighter out so we could see what we were doing.”

The witness then noticed the object.
“I happened to look up at the stars like I do sometimes. I noticed a bright light moving in the sky. I pointed it out asking what the heck it was. One of our guys said it’s just an airplane. I disagreed. Airplanes have different lights. At the time it just looked like a solid light moving in a straight direction but shifting side-to-side as well.”
The witness was able to get some low level video of the object.
“I grabbed my phone and zoomed in as close as I could to get a video. My phone goes zoomed up to 4x, but it’s a cheap Android so the quality was bad. I decided to take a photo as well. There was another one some distance away you can see in the photo.”

The witness then reviewed the photo and video at home.
I zoomed in on that photo and I was shocked. I showed my girlfriend as well. What was a single light was actually four lights in a triangle shape. The way they are facing doesn’t match the direction it moves.”
Barbour County is a county located in north-central West Virginia. Population 16,589. West Virginia State Director Fred Saluga is investigating. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
This is the newest sighting of the famous Dudly Dorito...a TR3B UFO seen back in the 1980s and seen off and on ever since. The photo shows an even back, which rules out any US made stealth bomber (has uneven, jagged back) or the stealth fighter. Its possible that the US is testing a new aircraft over the UK again...they prefer testing to be outside the US, but flying over populated areas on purpose...would be strange if you are trying to keep it secret. So, this is probably an alien TR3B type craft. Scott C. Waring-Taiwan
News states: The triangle-shaped object is a UFO mystery that has baffled thousands following several sightings in recent years over the Black Country. A dog walker snapped these pictures while walking on the hill yesterday. Teacher Darren Edwards used his mobile to capture pictures of the unidentified shape as it passed overhead. Mr Edwards, from Lawley, said: “I was out walking the dogs at about 7:30am on the Wrekin and had stopped at the top for a rest and to take in the views. “I look in the direction of Lawley and then over to Ironbridge and I could make out a black shape moving slowly in the sky
“I managed to get my mobile phone out to take a few snaps and there is clearly a defined dark triangle shape. “It was moving towards me and made no sound but having quickly checked on Google, it didn’t match any military aircraft or UAV drones. It was so slow it almost hanged in the sky. It also seemed to change its shape slightly as it turned.” Mr Edwards said that after about 60 seconds it lowered in the sky and headed north, and after another 20 seconds faded and was gone. He added: “It was a really strange looking thing to see and having served in the RAF I know that this was no current operational aircraft or drone.” The Dorito is a flying object that has been spotted numerous times in the skies over the past decade, especially in the Dudley area. It was given its name because of its triangular shape. It has appeared in Shropshire before, having been spotted over Welshpool in January 2010.

Strange white circling lights in the Derbyshire skies last night Sept 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Sept 27, 2016 Location of sighting: Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England This info was sent into me by Christian Mace, a French UFO research (click here to view his UFO site). The video shows white lights moving around in the sky. I have actually seen about 50 of these once with my family last year when walking home at midnight. They seem to have no limit to their speed, but if you notice them, they will know it! There is a 60% chance that they will either perform for you with loops, or return to observe you while keeping their distance for 5-10 min. If I hadn't seen such an event with my own family...I never would have believed it really happened. Scott C. Waring-Taiwan Eyewitness states: Sorry for the grainy video had the camera on Max ISO as they were faint. Not sure what they are but they're moving in a pattern. #NotAliens :D just lights above Chesterfield, Derbyshire. Anyone shed any light (pardon the pun)

Date of sighting: Sept 2016 Location of sighting: Exmouth, Devon, England
The light seen in the video is too powerful to be a drone, and its shape indicates it is an orb. Orbs are the most common type of UFOs seen during both day and night time. Such glowing orbs have been seen coming out of lakes and oceans, but are common seen around mountain tops and ridges, most recently in Colorado. Scott C. Waring
News states: A mum and daughter have shared this mysterious footage - of what they are convinced is a UFO. Tanya Davis, 43, and Charlee, 15, were baffled when they spotted the bright light in the sky above their house. They claim the unidentified 'vessel' remained overhead for two to three minutes before slowly disappearing out of sight. Pals have suggested that the 'UFO' could in fact be a drone - but Tanya and Charlee, of Exmouth, Devon, don't agree, saying it was "too big" and "silent". In a quest for answers, they even called nearby Exeter Airport to see if they could shed any light on the mystery - but to no avail.
Humanoid Robots to Flying Cars: 10 Coolest DARPA Projects
Humanoid Robots to Flying Cars: 10 Coolest DARPA Projects
By Denise Chow, Staff Writer

INTRO: The way of the future
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, has a reputation for working on some of the most cutting-edge, futuristic projects — many that could easily be mistaken for science fiction. The agency, which falls under the watch of the U.S. Department of Defense, is responsible for developing new technologies for the military.
From humanoid robots to flying armored cars, here are 10 of the coolest DARPA projects.
1. WildCat and BigDog
As their names suggest, WildCat and BigDog are four-legged, headless robots designed to walk, run and carry heavy loads through potentially dangerous terrain, much like deployed troops. DARPA awarded contracts to Boston Dynamics to develop WildCat and BigDog for use by the military.
BigDog, created in 2005, is 3 feet (0.91 meters) long, and stands 2.5 feet (0.76 m) tall. The robot, which is roughly the size of a small mule, is capable of hauling 400 pounds (181 kg) of cargo, and can navigate difficult terrain and inclines up to 35 degrees.
WildCat, however, is quicker and more agile. The robot can gallop up to 16 mph (25 km/h) on flat surfaces, and is part of a DARPA mission to develop robots that can assist human soldiers on a variety of ground missions.
Sometimes life imitates art, as is the case with DARPA's project to develop interfaces that enable soldiers to control and partner with semi-autonomous bipedal machines that, "act as the soldier's surrogate." Sound familiar? Hollywood director James Cameron explored the idea in his 2009 blockbuster hit "Avatar."
In its 2013 budget, DARPA allocated $7 million to its "Avatar Project," which could enable soldiers to control surrogate robots in dangerous combat situations.

3. Excalibur
To reduce the amount of "collateral damage" in war, particularly during battles fought in urban settings, DARPA is developing laser weapons that are small and efficient enough to be used in combat. These experimental laser weapons will be 10 times lighter than existing high-power laser systems currently in use, DARPA officials have said.
The lasers, developed for airplanes, may also be used for laser communications, target designation and airborne self-protection, agency officials added.

4. Falcon Project
DARPA's Falcon Project was announced in 2003 as a joint program with the U.S. Air Force. The project aimed to develop a reusable, unmanned, rapid-strike hypersonic vehicle.
A prototype Hypersonic Technology Vehicle 2 (HTV-2) first flew in April 2010 and again in August 2011. The ultra-fast, arrow-shaped drone flew at blistering hypersonic speeds of Mach 20 (about 20 times the speed of sound), more than 22 times faster than commercial jetliners. During the flight, surface temperatures on the vehicle reached 3,500 degrees Fahrenheit (1,930 degrees Celsius), which is hotter than a blast furnace capable of melting steel.
During both test flights, operators lost contact with the HTV-2 prototypes. In July 2013, DARPA confirmed it would not conduct a third flight of the HTV-2, but research on the project will continue until summer 2014 to gain better understanding of hypersonic flight.

5. Transformer
Imagine a militarized version of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. This is the thrust of DARPA's Transformer project, which aims to develop a flying armored car. The four-person vehicle will be able to drive normally but also take to the skies to avoid road obstructions or other threats on the ground.
The vehicle is being designed to take off and land from the vertical position, and will be able to fly up to 250 nautical miles on a single tank of fuel. Eventually, these flying tanks may be used for strikes, raids, counterinsurgency operations, reconnaissance, medical evacuation and supply missions.

6. Atlas
DARPA's Atlas project was revealed to the public on July 11, 2013. The bipedal humanoid robot stands 6-feet tall (1.8 m), and is designed to assist with a range of emergency services, including search and rescue operations. The U.S. Department of Defense is not interested in using the Atlas robot in combat situations, officials have said.
Atlas was developed by Boston Dynamics and was based on some of the company's earlier robot creations.

7. Navigation chip
Advances in GPS technology revolutionized tracking and navigation, but what about areas where GPS is unavailable, or the signals are interrupted? To help soldiers find their way around areas of GPS blackout, DARPA researchers are developing a tiny navigation chip that is smaller than a penny.
The so-called timing & inertial measurement unit (TIMU) chip incorporates three gyroscopes, three accelerometers and a highly accurate master clock into a single miniaturized system that can provide precise information for navigation, including orientation, acceleration and time.
DARPA officials have said the navigation chips will not replace GPS, but rather are designed to work when GPS is unavailable or doesn't work.

8. X-37
The Boeing-built X-37 reusable space plane started as a NASA project in 1999, but was eventually transferred to DARPA in 2004 before the Air Force took control of the project two years later.
The unmanned X-37 Orbital Test Vehicle, which resembles a miniaturized version of the space shuttle, rides into orbit atop a rocket and returns to Earth and lands as a space plane. The X-37 launched on its first orbital mission in April 2010.
Previously, DARPA reported it was developing the X-37 to rendezvous and refuel older satellites or perform minor repairs in space using a robotic arm. Speculation mounted, however, that the X-37 was being used by DARPA and the Air Force as a vehicle for space-based weapons. In 2010, a high-ranking Air Force official involved with the project dismissed the rumors, and stressed that the X-37's main purpose is to test space technology.

9. Brain-Machine interfaces
Imagine if your brain could communicate with an external device, such as a thought-controlled mechanical arm or a device to restore sight. DARPA researchers are investigating potential communication pathways between the human brain and machines to build, assist, augment or repair human cognitive or sensory-motor functions.
Research on these so-called brain-machine interfaces began in the 1970s, and work by DARPA researchers is focused on neuroprosthetics that aim to restore damaged sight, hearing and movement. One of DARPA's brain-machine interface projects is Proto2, a thought-controlled prosthetic arm. Proto2 consists of a dexterous hand and fingers that can perform 25 joint motions.

10. Microscale pumps
DARPA-funded researchers created the world's smallest vacuum pump system that can be used for any electronics or sensors that require a vacuum. In 2008, DARPA's Chip-Scale Vacuum Micro Pumps (CSVMP) program set out to develop the smallest, most power-efficient pumps ever created.
The vacuum pumps could be used to build tiny chemical sensors, such as ultra-sensitive gas analyzers to detect chemical or biological attacks, or to design new sensors or instruments for micro-drones. The penny-size vacuum pumps were created by researchers at the University of Michigan, MIT and Honeywell International.
Time travel has been a standard of science fiction since H.G. Wells' "The Time Machine" came out in 1895, but fictional people have been hopping through time and space for hundreds of years, from the Hindu sacred text the "Mahabharata" to the 12th-century medieval text De nugis curialium.
But just because people have been thinking about time travel for centuries now doesn't mean all of their accounts make sense. Here are the seven of the worst time travel concepts to be found in modern fiction. These explanations for time travel, given what scientists currently know, are total nonsense.
So science fiction that doesn't even try to explain its time travel, such as "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court," or that brushes past explanation with non-answers like the infamous "wibbly wobbly timey-wimey" line in "Doctor Who" don't count.

1. Star Trek
The original "Star Trek" often walked the line between what writers call "hard science fiction" and "soft science fiction" — i.e. the difference between scrupulously researched hypotheses and techno-magic.
But perhaps the classic 1966 TV show's most egregious scientific misstep was in season 1 episode 21, "Tomorrow is Yesterday," when the Enterprise crew first traveled through time by slingshotting around the sun.
That's right, twice in the episode, the Enterprise travels hundreds of years through time by moving at an extremely high speed relative to a celestial body with a strong gravitational pull. That pull supposedly created a "time warp," thus "slingshotting" the ship into the past (in the beginning of the episode) or the future (at the end of the episode).
There is some method to this madness: The writers were clearly inspired by Einstein's theory of relativistic travel, which states that starships traveling at high speeds through space would experience time at a slower rate than on the planets they left behind, thus achieving a form of time travel into the future.
And the initial "slingshot" time travel into the past is achieved using the gravitational pull of a black star. There's a kernel of veracity buried here: Black hole singularities do distort the space-time around them, so theoretically if a ship were to get caught in its gravitational pull and then escape, it would have traveled into the future relative to its onboard timekeeping system.
But time travel into the past is a much different creature than time travel to the future, and if time itself can't escape from a black hole, how could a starship?
What's worse, the "slingshot effect" was a pivotal plot point in "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home," the movie that effectively marked the end of the original "Star Trek" franchise.
(Editor's Note: this entry was updated to correct the episode in which slingshotting was first used.
2. Escape from the Planet of the Apes
The third in the "Planet of the Apes" series begins with the Earth being destroyed in a massive nuclear explosion. Three apes escape the destruction by restoring a spaceship and flying away from the doomed planet, but they're caught in a shock wave and end up going through a time warp — a catchall for time travel in science fiction — created by the explosion.
What the "Planet of the Apes" crew is talking about sounds more like a wormhole, which is a theoretical tunnel through space-time that could also be used to travel faster than light or, possibly, travel forward or back in time.
According to current understanding, creating a wormhole requires large amounts of a theoretical substance called dark matter. Dark matter has nothing to do with a nuclear explosion. Now, it's true that no one's ever blown up the Earth to see what would happen, so it's impossible to say for sure, but it's pretty safe to say that the titular escape in "Escape from the Planet of the Apes" has no scientific basis, and just amounts to yet another example of Hollywood solving all its plot problems with explosions.

3. Dr. Who
This long-running British television show is infamous for playing fast and loose with time travel. But even for a show whose main character travels unrestricted through time and space, the beings known as Weeping Angels are kind of a stretch, albeit terrifyingly cool.
That whole thing about how they kill people by sending them back in time so they "live to death," and then feed off of the "potential energy" of all the things their victims would have done in their original time — that's ridiculous.
First of all, how would the act of sending someone back in time create energy? Take the idea of opening a traversable wormhole through time and space, a theory of time travel that appears to be supported by Einstein's General Relativity. Opening that wormhole would require an enormous amount of energy known as dark energy, or negative energy.
That aside, when a person goes into a traversable wormhole, there's no reason he or she would leave behind potential energy of what would have been. It's poetic, but scientifically speaking it doesn't make much sense, even for "Doctor Who."

4. TIME and Again
In this sci-fi novel by Jack Finney, main character Simon Morley becomes a test subject in the U.S. military's time travel research, something that's not too far-fetched — the U.S. military was researching some wacky stuff in the 60s and 70s, including whether LSD could give people psychic powers and the chemical weapon known as the "gay bomb" that was supposed to make enemy troops suddenly and aggressively infatuated with each other.
In "Time and Again," the government's testing a hypothesis that if they can convince a person he has traveled through time, then that person will have traveled through that time. To that end, Morley is isolated and surrounded only with things that evoke New York City in 1882.
The experiment is successful: Morley actually travels to 1882 and back several times through the course of the book and even alters the course of history.
Thematically, the use of belief and self-hypnosis as a means of time travel makes for a good story. Scientifically, however, there isn't really much to say about this one except that, barring some extraordinary discovery that fundamentally changes the way we understand the laws of the universe, "Time and Again" has absolutely zero scientific support.
In this classic 80s movie, Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) turns a DeLorean car into a time machine by installing a flux capacitor, pumping 1.21 gigawatts of electricity through it, and then speeding the car up to 88 mph (140 km/h).
"Back to the Future" is a bit of a tricky one for this list, because the now iconic "flux capacitor" is the source of time travel, though there is no explanation on how the capacitor works.
A capacitor is a device that stores electricity by creating an electrical field between two charged but not touching metal plates. "Flux" refers to the flow of something through space and can be used to refer to time. So perhaps the flux capacitor is special because its wishbone shape means it has three metal plates?
Most theories of time travel also require the time machine to be traveling at extremely high velocities (as with the time dilation that occurs at relativistic speeds) or using a warp drive or wormhole to cut through space-time, thus moving from one place to another in an amount of time that seems like the vessel is moving faster than the speed of light.
In that context, why make the DeLorean's time travel cutoff point 88 mph? The writers chose "88," because the number "8" looks like an infinity symbol (∞) turned on its side, suggesting infinitely high speeds. [Now and Then: 10 Mind-Bending Time Travel Stories in Comics]

6. The Time Traveler's Wife
In this 2003 romantic novel by Audrey Niffenegger, a woman named Clare must endure not knowing when and where her time-hopping husband Henry is.
Narratively, "The Time Traveler's Wife" is a unique take on time travel as a literary trope, as well as a lovely allegory about the difficulty of maintaining a relationship over time.
But scientifically, the book's time travel is baseless. Henry's time-surfing is ascribed to a genetic disorder called "Chrono-Impairment," which is hardly explored beyond its establishment as the pseudoscientific premise for Clare and Henry's tragic romance.
It's probably safe to say that if and when scientists discover the key to time travel, they won't find it in human DNA.
You'd be hard-pressed to find a worse example of bogus time travel than the infamous "flying backwards around the Earth" scene in the 1978 "Superman" film starring Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder.
In the movie, Superman reverses Lois Lane's death by flying counter-clockwise around the Earth so fast that he reverses the earth's spin and therefore rewinds time. [Superman's 10 Strangest Powers]
This is insane for several reasons, the most significant being Earth's spin has nothing to do with the passage of time.
But let's say Superman were capable of influencing the Earth's spin, which moves at a speed of over 1,000 mph (1,600 km/h) at the equator. If the Earth were suddenly to stop spinning, let alone spin in the reverse direction, all objects on the surface would suddenly jolt forward.
In the movie, Lois was in California when Superman spun the Earth backward, not at the equator, so she'd be thrown forward at a rate of less than 1,000 mph — maybe only 500 or 600 mph. That'd still be enough to kill her all over again before Superman could get to her.

Suppose your friend tells you about a recent UFO sighting in your area. That night you notice an unusual slow-moving light in the sky. Ordinarily, you’d dismiss it as a human aircraft, but tonight you wonder if it’s extraterrestrial. A week later you discover an odd, circular patch of dead grass in your yard — shaped something like a “flying saucer.” The next night you swear you hear strange humming noises outside and soft “alien-like” footsteps below your bedroom window. More and more, these events seem linked to UFOs.
Experts call this apophenia, and, simply put, it’s the human tendency to make connections or see patterns where none exist.
Why does this happen?
Humans are wired to spot patterns in our environment. Our ancestors used this skill to glean information about the seasons, animal migrations, weather phenomena and the location of natural resources that helped them survive.
Unfortunately, our pattern-recognition machinery sometimes turns up connections that aren’t there. From an evolutionary perspective it makes sense that we’d occasionally get it wrong. After all, it’s better that our minds continually detect clues (even random or unrelated clues) than fail to see them altogether. Not recognizing where predators typically hide, for example, can get you eaten. So periodic “false positives” are the price we pay for security, an unfortunate but necessary by-product of our need to survive and find meaning in a chaotic world.
Connecting the dots about where dangerous predators hide and learning to spot them helped our ancestors survive. (Photo:Jonathan P/flickr)
Examples of apophenia
Our brain’s ability to discern meaningful patterns has continued to be an important survival skill in the modern world. And thankfully, most of our false positives are relatively harmless. For example, there’s a type of apophenia called pareidolia, which is when you spy a lamb in the clouds or an old man in the moon or the face of Jesus on a piece of toast.
Of course, glimpsing nonexistent patterns can also lead you down a dark path. One example is latching onto supernatural or magical explanations for phenomena that don’t seem explainable via science, terrifying yourself and others.
Then there’s the gambler’s fallacy — the belief that if something happens a lot then things will soon balance out so it happens less. Or vice versa. Take a coin toss. If you get five heads in a row, you may believe you’re more likely to get tails next time. But your chance of getting heads (using a fair coin) is exactly the same each time — 50/50.
Or how about the “hot hand fallacy,” the tendency to believe that previous success means you’re on a roll? This type of cognitive misfire is especially dangerous if you believe your good luck at the roulette wheel or picking stocks means you can’t lose in the future.
In science, apophenia may cause researchers seeking a big discovery to glom onto evidence of order that doesn't exist or to ignore findings that don’t support their hypothesis. According to one study, 24-40 percent of published research on strategic management might not reach the same conclusions if repeated. The peril lies in trumpeting results that aren’t true — for instance, that a new drug eradicates cancer or that vaccines cause autism. The result may be that you choose to undergo an ineffective treatment instead of opting for something proven or shun preventive therapies that could save lives later on.
A related tendency is noticing selective facts and concocting an entire belief system. For example, someone may think a three-week cold spell means global warming isn’t real, or begin trafficking in conspiracy theories, which can range from the fairly benign claim that Elvis faked his own death to delusional Holocaust denial.
Pareidolia is a type of apophenia that causes us to see faces in rocks, shapes in the clouds and George Washington’s image on a grilled cheese sandwich. (Photo: Joshua Tree National Park/flickr)
Other research indicates that apophenia may also be related to over-activation of the brain’s right hemisphere (the seat of creativity and artistic senses), and may be more common in people with higher dopamine levels, a brain chemical that stimulates you to seek out pleasurable activities, improves memory, boosts motivation and helps you focus.
Is apophenia ever good?
Uncovering patterns that others don’t see may be more common in those suffering from mental illness, but it doesn’t always stoke dangerous delusional thinking. This brain “glitch” might also be the fuel behind creativity, imagination and visionary flights of fancy. Think of a poet’s whimsical metaphors or artistic symbolism in a painting. Or how about epiphanies, which bring sudden intuitive insights about the world’s interconnectedness? As many have long believed, mental illness and creativity really do seem to share a common brain pathway.
Do the patterns that creative types and dreamers see really exist? Maybe only for them, at least initially, but when shared with others, they often provide new perceptions, usher in scientific discoveries and bring greater wisdom. Apophenia only treads on precarious ground when we pick and choose the patterns we notice and fail to connect all the dots, or act out destructively based on our perceptions.
How to avoid self-deception
You’re more likely to “stumble upon” counterproductive non-existent patterns when you wish something were true or it serves a narrative you want to tell — like you’re on a lucky streak or your favorite celebrity didn’t die or the research theory you staked your career on isn’t wrong. Connecting all the dots requires keeping an open mind, looking at something from all sides and being willing to accept new information or evidence as it comes along. A little skeptical scrutiny and broad-mindedness goes a long way in keeping apophenia out of the danger zone.

Dream Chaser Space Plane to Fly United Nations Mission in 2021
Dream Chaser Space Plane to Fly United Nations Mission in 2021
By Mike Wall, Space.com Senior Writer
A private space plane is set to fly the United Nations' first-ever space mission five years from now.
Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) and the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) are teaming up to launch a two-week robotic mission to low-Earth orbit in 2021 using the company's Dream Chaser spacecraft, representatives of both organizations announced Tuesday (Sept. 27).
"One of UNOOSA's core responsibilities is to promote international cooperation in the peaceful use of outer space," UNOOSA Director Simonetta Di Pippo said in a statement.
"I am proud to say that one of the ways UNOOSA will achieve this, in cooperation with our partner SNC, is by dedicating an entire microgravity mission to United Nations member states, many of which do not have the infrastructure or financial backing to have a stand-alone space program," she added.
The 2021 mission is targeted primarily at developing nations, but any U.N. member states can apply to put a payload on board. Nations whose experiments are chosen will be asked to foot part of the mission's total bill, though poorer countries will likely receive a price break, Sierra Nevada representatives said. UNOOSA and Sierra Nevada are also looking for sponsors to help fund the mission.
Over the next year, the two organizations will hash out details of the mission, which "will provide United Nations member states with the ability to access space in a cost-effective and collaborative manner within a few short years," Di Pippo said. "The possibilities are endless."
The 30-foot-long (9 meters) Dream Chaser looks like a much smaller version of NASA's now-retired space shuttle orbiter. Like the space shuttle, Dream Chaser launches vertically, lands horizontally on a runway and is reusable.
Dream Chaser can carry up to seven passengers, but it's also a cargo-hauling craft; indeed, NASA recently selected the uncrewed version of Dream Chaser to provide resupply and trash-disposal services to the International Space Station.
A Vermont witness at St. Albans reported watching an object hover alongside her second-floor balcony that could not be identified, according to testimony in Case 79413 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness said her daughter first saw the object floating just a few feet from their second floor balcony in St. Albans, VT, on September 15, 2016.

The events occurred beginning about 7:15 p.m. on September 15, 2016.
“I was at home with my 9-year-old daughter and my husband,” the witness stated.“My husband was in the shower and did not witness any of this event. I was in the kitchen getting dinner ready, and my daughter was in the living room watching TV. The living room has a sliding glass door that opens to our second floor balcony.”
The witness first heard a noise outside.
“It sounded like there were a couple of motorcycles, maybe across the road in the sports complex’s parking lot, that were revving their engines or something. It was kind of loud, and a little disruptive, but I didn’t pay too much attention to it, since there is a fair amount of traffic where we live. After a couple of minutes, my daughter said to me, ‘Hey, Mom, it’s a helicopter.’ I said, ‘Oh yeah?’ I really wasn’t interested in stopping what I was doing to look at a helicopter, but I did to make her happy.”
The witness went to see what her daughter was looking at.
“You can imagine my surprise when I went into the living room to look out the sliding glass door to see a helicopter in the sky, but instead saw an object hovering literally right next to the left corner post of our balcony. The object could not have been any more than 10 feet away from us, maximum.”
The witness quickly reacted.
“I became quite alarmed and gruffly told my daughter to get inside and away from the glass. I looked back over at the object, which continued to hover momentarily. It was solid black in the front. It could not have had any propellers on it because the object was so close that the propellers would have been striking the building. Also, I did not feel any wind or breeze coming from the direction of the object. The glass door was open to my balcony, so I would have felt something coming through the screen. My hair did not even move.”
The object hovered momentarily before lifting off straight up into the air.

The witness then had a second look at the object.
“After telling my daughter to move away, and then turning to look back at the object, it went from a hovering position, to a straight up vertical ascent, extremely fast. In this position the object had an egg-shaped front, with a long thin part extending toward the back, connected at the back, top part, maybe eight feet long? Not sure. The extension part looked like it had some red color on it. The object ascended straight up, and then started to turn like it was going to go upside down.”
The witness thought the object might crash.
“I became concerned that it was going to crash on the ground. Then a light army green-colored helicopter (a real one) was traveling over our building coming from the south and headed north. As the green helicopter went over-head, the black and red object vanished. Literally. My daughter also saw the object ascend, since she had only moved away from the window, and did not go where I had wanted her to. “
Her daughter had more details to share.
“Later, my daughter shared with me that she had seen the object arrive, starting at the east end of our balcony and stopping at the west end of it. Initially, I was pretty confused by what I had seen, and thought the object was a helicopter, as my daughter had thought. It all happened so unexpectedly and quickly.”
The witness noticed other odd occurrences.
“Also, I felt like my brain wasn’t really processing my observations like it normally would. Almost felt like I was a little bit ‘trance-like,’ which I think is why it took me a few days to sort out what I actually saw, backed up by my daughter’s observations, and come to terms with what happened. However, looking at all of the facts, there is no way the object could have been a helicopter.”
The daughter experienced problems after the incident.
“The next morning after the sighting of the object, my daughter woke in her bed with a bleeding nose. Also, she was very distressed, angry, agitated, and physically aggressive. She was one and-a-half hours late for school because I could not get her to calm down.”
The witness reports seeing other odd objects in the area recently. Pictured: St. Albans, VT.

The witness explained her own feelings.
“My reactions and feeling were: Initially fear and concern. Why was someone in a helicopter hovering next to our balcony? Were we in danger? Then somewhat a feeling of awe watching it ascend so quickly, and also from what it looked like. Then concern again that it was making unsafe maneuvers and might crash. Then extreme confusion. Initially, it seemed like the object had turned into the green helicopter heading north. But, really it just vanished, as the helicopter was going over. I have to say, this has been an unsettling experience.”
The witness reports strange experiences locally from the past as well.
“The event happened after a series of sightings of strange lights, farther away, one of which had been on the ground across the road from us a few weeks prior. I am concerned that we could be confronted again. I just don’t know what to expect at this point. Trying to not dwell on it and focus on the blessings of each day. But, experiencing a lot of anxiety and stress, to be quite honest. Also, maybe a little curious, too.”
St. Albans is a town in Franklin County, Vermont, population 5,999. MUFON Vermont State Director Ken Pfeifer is investigating.

DIAMANTACHTIGE UFO LAAT WANDELAARS SCHRIKKEN ( VIDEO )
DIAMANTACHTIGE UFO LAAT WANDELAARS SCHRIKKEN ( VIDEO )
Wanneer je gezellig met wat mensen in een bosrijke omgeving wandelt en er verschijnt opeens een vreemd object boven de bomen, dan is dat schrikken.
Dit gebeurde enkele dagen geleden in Mexico en UFO’s in deze vorm worden de laatste tijd op veel verschillende plaatsen waargenomen.
De vreemde niet geïdentificeerde objecten bij ons in de lucht vertonen soms vreemde vormen.
De meest bekende vorm van UFO’s zijn de zogenaamde klassieke retro vliegende schotelvorm, de cilindervormige UFO en de ronde die men meestal orb noemt.
Daarnaast worden er echter ook andere uitvoeringen waargenomen zoals driehoekige, maar soms ook diamant-vormige. Deze laatste zijn UFO’s die een soort ruit- of kruisvorm hebben.
Dit jaar worden er opvallend veel van dat soort UFO’s waargenomen en dat op verschillende plaatsen wereldwijd en zelfs daarbuiten zoals we zo meteen zullen zien.
De volgende opname is enkele dagen geleden gemaakt vlakbij de Mexicaanse plaats Veracruz en laat een dergelijke UFO zien.
De volgende opname is mooi, ook omdat je door de stemmen op de achtergrond kunt horen dat je hier met een echte waarneming hebt te maken. Honderd procent zekerheid is er met dit soort video's natuurlijk nooit, maar gezien de verbaasde en soms ook wat angstige reacties komt het geheel aardig geloofwaardig over.
Enkele maanden geleden reden een moeder en dochter op de snelweg bij het Australische Melbourne toen ze ook daar opeens een diamant-vormige UFO boven de bomen waarnamen.
Gelukkig slaagden ze erin om wat goede opnamen te maken en net zoals de UFO hierboven in Mexico vloog ook deze net boven de boomtoppen.
Weer enkele maanden daarvoor wordt een soortgelijke UFO waargenomen door Scott Waring bij het ISS ruimtestation.
Bovenstaande waarnemingen zijn allemaal van dit jaar, maar voor zover ons bekend is dit type UFO niet in Nederland of België waargenomen in die periode. Als we dat mis hebben, laat het ons weten.
En uiteraard heeft zoals gewoonlijk niemand enig idee wat voor objecten dit zijn, waar ze vandaan komen en wie ze bestuurt.
Goodbye, Rosetta! Spacecraft Crash-Lands on Comet in Epic Mission Finale
Goodbye, Rosetta! Spacecraft Crash-Lands on Comet in Epic Mission Finale
By Megan Gannon, Space.com Contributor
DARMSTADT, Germany — For the last two years, the Rosetta spacecraft has danced around a comet. Today, it finally made contact with the icy body — and sent its last signal.
The European Space Agency's (ESA) Rosetta probe ended its historic mission with a controlled descent to the surface of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko early this morning (Sept. 30). Scientists here at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) received the confirmation of landing from the spacecraft at about 1:19 p.m. local time (7:19 a.m. EDT/1119 GMT).
"I can announce the full success of this historic descent," said Patrick Martin, Rosetta mission manager, as he declared mission operations ended. "Farewell Rosetta, you've done the job. That was pure science at its best." [Photos: Europe's Rosetta Comet Mission in Pictures]
Comets are primitive cosmic objects, left over from the time our solar system was just starting to take shape 4.6 billion years ago. Exploring the structure, composition and activity of these icy bodies could shed light on the evolution of our solar system, and help scientists write a more comprehensive history of how the building blocks of life were first delivered to Earth.
Previous robotic expeditions have made close encounters with comets. NASA's Stardust mission even captured dust from the cloud around Comet Wild 2 and returned the sample to Earth in 2006. But Rosetta was the first to orbit a comet, the first to follow one around the sun and the first to send a probe to thesurface of a comet's nucleus.
Today's landing marks the end of an ambitious 1.3-billion-euro ($1.46 billion) mission that spanned more than a decade. The Rosetta spacecraft launched in March 2004, and after a 10-year cruise through the inner solar system covering a distance of 4 billion miles (6.5 billion km), it rendezvoused with Comet 67P in August 2014. Three months later, Rosetta deployed its surface probe Philae. But instead of anchoring to the comet's surface as planned, Philae bounced twice before coming to a stop against a cliff face in the Abydos region. Rosetta only spotted the final resting place of Philae earlier this month.
First observed in 1969, the 2.5-mile-wide (4 km) Comet 67P circles the sun every 6.5 years between the orbits of Earth and Jupiter. Right now the comet is heading back out toward the orbit of Jupiter, and Rosetta, which is solar-powered, wouldn't have enough energy to keep up, so the mission had to come to an end. The spacecraft will stop sending data as soon as it touches down, meaning mission scientists won't know if it tumbles or bounces like Philae did after it lands. [Rosetta Probe's 'Death Dive' Into Comet 67P Visualized]
ESA has already released the final images that Rosetta collected on its way down to the comet's surface.
"It's really great," said Holger Sierks, the principal investigator for Rosetta's OSIRIS camera, as he presented some of the probe's final views. "It’' exciting. It’s working like a charm."
Comet 67P is very porous with low gravity, so Rosetta's landing likely looked more like a slow-motion collision than a violent crash. The spacecraft executed its final maneuver around midnight local time (6:00 p.m. EDT; 2200 GMT) yesterday (Sept. 29) and began a 14-hour, 12-mile (20 km) drop to the comet's surface. ESA officials had calculated that its speed upon impact would be about walking pace, or 2 mph (3.2 km/h).
The controlled impact was designed to give ESA scientists a closer look at surface features they had only spied from afar.
"We got pretty close to the comet recently with the orbits we were doing," Matt Taylor, Rosetta project scientist with ESA, told Space.com. "We got within about 2 kilometers [1.2 miles] from the surface. But this plummet into the surface gets us in below 2 kilometers. It gets us within the acceleration region, where the comet coma grows and starts being thrown off."
The death dive was also an opportunity for Rosetta's suite of instruments to take measurements as it passes through the layer where the phase transition occurs between ice and gas.
Rosetta's final resting place is a smooth patch in the so-called Ma'at region on the "head" of the rubber duck-shaped comet.
This particular spot has a number of dust-spewing pits — some 330 feet (100 m) across and 165 feet (50 m) deep — that scientists wanted Rosetta's instruments to observe before the mission ended. The walls of these pits appear dotted with "goosebumps" that could be signatures of early comet building blocks known as cometesimals.
The mission has already produced a number of surprising discoveries — that the Comet 67P has big grains of water ice on its surface, molecular oxygen in its coma, diverse landscapes and a fluffy core, just to name a few. But Rosetta scientists still have reams of data to pore over. So, even with today's finale, the work isn't over.
"We have 80,000 images to look at," Mohamed El-Maarry, a postdoctoral researcher with Rosetta's OSIRIS team, from the University of Bern in Switzerland, told reporters yesterday. "It's going to keep us busy for years to come."

Light has been added to better see the UFOs here.
Date of sighting: Sept 5, 2016 Location of sighting: Barbour County, West Virginia, USA Source: MUFON 79238 This UFO is a bit small in the video, so make it full screen and change to HD settings to see it better. The object hovers like a drone, but its lights are not blinking, which leads me to believe it may be a real UFO. Also most drones have red lights, but that is not always true. This one is just too darn small to make out enough detail. Hard to say on this one.
Such white light UFOs have been seen by police officers over the Rocky Mountains, Colorado this year, but they were bus size and move incredibly fast. Scott C. Waring Eyewitness states: I was at Stonewall Resort, me and three others were heading to the top of the hill to get our machinery out for the morning job. It was pretty dark out still so we sat there waiting for it to get a bit brighter out so we could see what we are doing. I happened to look up at the stars like I do sometimes. I noticed a bright light moving in the sky, I pointed it out asking what the heck it was, one of our guys said it's just a airplane. I disagreed, airplanes have different lights. At the time it just looked like a solid light moving in a straight direction but shifting side to side as well. I grabbed my phone and zoomed in as close as I could to get a video, my phone goes zoomed up to 4x but it's a cheap Android so the quality was bad. I decided to take a photo as well. There was another one some distance away you can see it in the photo. We just let it be and went back to work since the sun was coming up and this wasn't my first UFO encounter. When I went home and I zoomed in on that photo I was shocked. I showed my girlfriend as well, what was a single light was actually four lights in a triangle shape. The way they are facing doesn't match the direction it moves.

UFO In Earths Orbit Seen From Space Station On Sep 30, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Sept 30, 2016 Location of sighting: Earths Orbit at Space Station (ISS) This blue glowing UFO was seen near the space station yesterday by Streetcap1 of Youtube. It appears far away, but its not. Its actually very close to the space station, but higher up so it appears distant. Excellent find by Streetcap1. Scott C. Waring Streetcap1 states: Unidentified Object is brighter on the left side due to the light from the Sun, so not Lens Flare. NASA cut the camera feed so quickly even though this was very distant, but I still managed to get a couple of frames to enlarge. Streetcap1.

Filer’s Files # 40 – 2016 Are Humans from Another Planet? - PART I
Filer’s Files # 40 – 2016 Are Humans from Another Planet? - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Von Braun Saw Crashed Alien Bodies UFO, Are Humans from Another Planet? UFO Rising and Alien Craft Panic’s Alexander the Greta’s Army.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over California, Florida, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Vermont.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Portugal, Puerto Rico, and England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that of the over one hundred UFOs reported each week, many represent alien craft. The US Air Force investigated UFOs publicly for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. The United States Air Force Blue Book Project conducted a worldwide investigation of UFOs from 1947 until December 1969, when it disbanded its investigative team. We are continuing the investigation and make the assumption we are not alone in the universe. Sacred ancient writings and our earliest structures such as the pyramids, and artifacts on the Moon and Mars point to alien intelligence. I observed an alien UFO on my radar and London Control had us intercept the UFO over England. Let us look for some of the evidence.

Von Braun Saw Crashed Alien Bodies UFO
Werner von Braun
Russ Hamersley writes, “After World War II, a number of highly regarded German scientists were brought to the United States under a program called Operation Paper Clip.” Their leader was Dr. Wernher von Braun who was technical director of the Peenemunde V-2 rocket research center. After the war, he worked on guided missiles for the U.S. Army and was later director of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. In 1970, he became NASA’s associate administrator. “In Robert Trundle’s book, “Is ET Here,” he discusses Clark C. McClelland’s relationship with Von Braun. After a Manned Flight Awareness meeting McClelland and Von Braun left the Cocoa Beach Ramada Inn and met in a back patio. Von Braun’s scientists were launching V-2 rockets at the White Sands Testing Range in 1947 not far from Roswell. McClelland asked Von Braun, “Did the Roswell Incident happen and was an alien craft recovered along with alien bodies?Von Braun rose when he asked him the following questions.
Von Braun lit a cigarette raised his highbrows, thought for a second, and then began to discuss the crash openly. He explained how he and associates had been taken to the crash site after the bulk of the military personnel had left the scene. Von Braun stated. “The exterior of the space craft was not metal as we know it, but appeared to be made of something biological, like skin. McClelland’s only thought at the time was that he was being told that the craft was made of something “alive.”And yes, there were alien bodies which were being kept in a medical tent near the UFO. The beings were small, very frail, and reptilian in nature. Von Braun compared their skin to rattlesnakes that he and his group had encountered at White Sands. Von Braun said, “He was puzzled by the nature of the debris. The material was very thin, aluminum colored, similar to chewing gum wrapping, according to the scientist.”
The craft’s interior was bare of instrumentation, as if the creatures and the craft were of a single unit. McClelland kept his vow to Von Braun, who died on June 15, 1977, never to tell anyone the story, while he was still alive. “Is ET Here?” ISBN 0-9735341-2-5, by Robert Trundle, PhD Website
Are Humans from Another Planet?
A U.S. ecologist says conditions such as bad backs and sunburn suggest humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth. In a new book, Dr Ellis Silver says aliens put humans our planet as recently as tens of thousands of years ago. He suggests the Earth might be a prison planet, since humans seem to be a naturally violent species and are here until we learn to behave ourselves. In his book, Dr Ellis Silver points to a number of physiological features to make his case for why humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth. Dr Silver says that while the planet meets humans’ needs for the most part, it does not perhaps serve the species’ interests as well as the aliens who dropped us off imagined.
In his book, HUMANS ARE NOT FROM EARTH: A SCIENTIFIC EVALUATION OF THE EVIDENCE, the ecologist writes the human race has defects that mark it of being ‘not of this world’.
‘Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more.
He also says that it is strange that babies’ heads are so large and make it difficult for women to give birth, which can result in fatalities of the mother and infant. No other native species on this planet has this problem, he says.
Dr Ellis says that humans might suffer from bad backs (illustrated) because they evolved on a world with lower gravity such as Mars.
He also believes humans are not designed to be as exposed to the sun as they are on Earth, as they cannot sunbathe for more than a week or two – unlike a lizard – and cannot be exposed to the sun for a few hours without getting sunburned.
Seventeen factors which suggest we are not from Earth how did we get here? When did we get here? What is our home planet like? The most likely stars that our home planet orbits If the aliens are out there why can’t we detect them? Are we the aliens?
In this fascinating book Dr Ellis Silver provides answers to all of these questions, based on current evidence and thinking in the scientific community and elsewhere.
“The Earth approximately meets our needs as a species, but perhaps not as strongly as whoever brought us here initially thought,” Silver said in an interview with Yahoo news. “I believe that many of our problems stem from the simple fact that our internal body clocks have evolved to expect a 25 hour day (this has been proven by sleep researchers), but the Earth’s day is only 24 hours. This is not a modern condition – the same factors can be traced all the way back through mankind’s history on Earth.”
Silver does not suggest one answer – but a possibility that early pre-humans such as Homo erectus were crossbred with another species. He also suggests several possible origins, including Alpha Centauri.
“Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring (raw) foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more. Plus there’s a prevailing feeling among many people that they don’t belong here or that something “just isn’t right“.
“This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this, discussed in the book, is that the Earth might be a prison planet – since we seem to be a naturally violent species – and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”
The theory of evolution claims humans were developed from apelike animals or chimpanzees but these animals still exist in their ancient form and do not write or construct buildings. No chimpanzee has graduated from kindergarten. Paleoanthropology is the scientific study of human evolution based on evidence of fossilized bones and partial skulls that will not fill your average table. A great is based on the assumption we gradually gained brain power, walked upright, and learned to reason and believe in a creator power or God. Animals live by the rule of fhe jungle and most humans are peaceful.
Paleontologists for some reason have ignored the possibility of intervention by extraterrestrials. They admit thousands even millions of mutations would be required to develop cells from the primordial soup to fish, primitive land creatures, then apes to hominids or primitive man. We know now that the DNA molecule is probably the most efficient information storage system in the entire universe.
The immensity of complex, coded and precisely sequenced information written on the DNA is amazing. The evidence speaks of intelligent, information-bearing design. Complex DNA coding would have been necessary for even the hypothetical first ‘so-called’ simple cell(s).
Our cells are more complex than a city
A single cell is unbelievably complex being roughly equivalent to New York City in a bubble or the outer membrane of the cell. As we move in closer to examine the cell we see the huge buildings, roads, subways, bridges, auto traffic that represent the various parts of the cell. As we move closer inside the various buildings we find a network of electrical wiring, heating and air conditioning systems, elevators carrying people. Inside the offices are millions of computers and wiring chips. Now you have an idea of the complexity of a single cell that can duplicate itself in minutes.
Even Francis Crick the co-founder and Nobel Prize Winner stated, ‘An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have had to have been satisfied to get it going.’
Crick reasoned that life could not have evolved from non-living chemicals under any conceivable earth conditions. He felt life did not originate on earth, and suggests a theory called panspermia. That the seeds of life are all through the universe. This concept basically infers that life, DNA, virus, bacteria, bombarded from space aboard meteorites and comets. Crick proposed, in a book called “Life Itself,” that some form of primordial life was shipped to the earth billions of years ago in spaceships—by supposedly ‘more evolved’ (therefore advanced) alien beings. This concept basically infers that life, DNA, virus, bacteria, bombarded Earth from space aboard meteorites and comets.
A balloon that recently returned from a high-altitude flight this year was covered in microscopic life forms which seemed not to be of this world – and reignited the debate over whether life on Earth actually began here, or somewhere else. This year, other scientists have argued that life originated on Mars, due to a mineral found in Martian meteorites, thought to be crucial to the genesis of life. Another experiment showed that amino acids could have arrived in impacts with comets – which suggest life might be widespread in the solar system. A ancient civilization on Mars might have traveled to Earth.
Earth Mars
Dr Ellis Silver argues that humans may well not be from Earth – and may have arrived separately perhaps aboard a space ship. Silver, an environmentalist who is currently working with the effort to clean plastic debris from the Pacific, says his book aims to provoke debate – and is based on scientific work on the difference between humans and other animals.
“The Earth approximately meets our needs as a species, but perhaps not as strongly as whoever brought us here initially thought,” “Lizards can sunbathe for as long as they like. We can just about get away with it for a week or two. But day after day in the sun forget it. You might as well just lie down on the freeway and wait for a bus to hit you.” We are dazzled by the sun, which is also odd, says Silver – most animals are not.
Silver also points out to the “extra” 223 genes in human beings, which are not found in any other species, and to the lack of a fossil “missing links”. The development of blonde hair and blue eyes in certain humans over the last ten years is a mystery in itself.
Silver also claims that the human race has defects that mark us out as being possibly “not of this world”.We lived comfortably on another planet believed to have pyramids.
“We are all chronically ill,” says Silver. “Indeed, if you can find a single person who is 100% fit and healthy and not suffering from some (perhaps hidden or unstated) condition or disorder (there’s an extensive list in the book) I would be extremely surprised – I have not been able to find anyone.” The sun hurts our eyes implying we originally came from a planet with a dimmer son.
“I believe that many of our problems stem from the simple fact that our internal body clocks have evolved to expect a 25 hour day (this has been proven by sleep researchers), but the Earth’s day is only 24 hours. This is not a modern condition – the same factors can be traced all the way back through mankind’s history on Earth.” Silver does not suggest one answer – but a possibility that early pre-humans such as Homo erectus were crossbred with another species.
Mankind has spent tremendous effort building pyramids all over the world at great cost. Mars, Ceres, our Moon all have large pyramids indicate they have value to extraterrestrials. Mysterious rays of light radiate from pyramids around the world.
“Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment.
Plus there’s a prevailing feeling among many people that they don’t belong here or that something “just isn’t right“.
“This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this, discussed in the book, is that the Earth might be a prison planet – since we seem to be a naturally violent species – and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”
“There is probably truth to the report that they find curious stuff in the atmosphere,” Chris McKay, an astrobiologist at NASA told SPACE.com in an interview. “The jump to the conclusion that it is alien life is a big jump and would require quite extraordinary proof.” Professor Wainwright and his colleagues at the University of Sheffield aim to conduct further tests. “In the absence of a mechanism by which large particles like these can be transported to the stratosphere, we can only conclude that the biological entities originated from space,” Wainwright added.
“Our conclusion then is that life is continually arriving to Earth from space, life is not restricted to this planet and it almost certainly did not originate here.” Silver’s more radical idea is presented as polemic, intended to inspire argument – “Initial reaction has been positive, although one reviewer thought it was a parody, while another found the writing style heavily dictatorial,” he admits.
The debate over the origin of life looks set to intensify. Simulations on supercomputers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the U.S. have found that amino acids, the building blocks of life, could have arrived on Earth via comets. This would suggest that life might be found elsewhere. Nir Goldman suggests that the simple molecules found in comets (such as water, ammonia, and carbon dioxide) could have supplied the raw materials, and the impact with early Earth could have “ignited” a prebiotic reaction. A series of experiments where projectiles were fired into commentary ice mixtures formed amino acids – the building blocks of life.
Goldman said. “These results present a significant step forward in our understanding of the origin of the building blocks of life. This increases the chances of life originating and being widespread throughout our solar system,” Goldman said. My thesis proposes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.”
“Little in the book can be proven – it can only be supposed or suspected. But there is more than enough indisputable evidence to make further study worthwhile.”
Genesis 1- 26 states:And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth. Perhaps man was brought to earth rather than being made on earth.
UFO sightings are rising with increased sightings reported from Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom. We could foolishly attribute the hundreds of sightings each week to mistaken identification of aircraft, satellites or natural phenomena, but most of the sightings claim the UFOs perform feats of speed and maneuver not capable by manmade aircraft. Some claim these are optical illusions, but why do we not have optical illusions when other objects are sighted. There seems to be a psychological reluctance by government and science to admit UFOs are in our skies. I personally had some reluctance to believe my aircraft was intercepting a UFO at the request of London Control and that I had the UFO on my radar. It is natural to be skeptical particularly when little information is available from news sources. Scientists should be exploring these unknown phenomena, but most hate to accept a new phenomenon since they would have to rewrite most of their textbooks. It’s much easier to claim UFOs do not exist than to acknowledge there are unknown and unidentified craft in our skies. When I was in the Air Force our regulations required that we report all unidentified aircraft including UFOs as outlined in (JANAP-146).
In conversations with aircrews at McGuire Air Force Base the crews are regularly spotting UFOs over New Jersey and even as far away as Iraq. Numerous intelligence, military, and government employees report the reality of UFOs. Unfortunately UFOs do not land in large numbers for the public to realize the reality of the phenomenon. Our radars regularly track the UFOs; they are being vided taped and photographed in large numbers.
UFOs have been seen on Earth and recorded for 30,000 years. Ancient caves used by Stone Age man have exact replica drawings in caverns in Spain and France. The Nasca Lines can be seen from space and point to ancient Peruvian cities. Many aspect of religion might point to ufological activity.
Alien Craft Panic’s Alexander the Great’s Army
Middle East (Reign of Alexander the Great_, 356-323 B.C.) A historian of the reign of Alexander the Great allegedly tells of two strange craft that dived repeatedly at his army, until the war elephants, the men, and all the horses panicked and refused to cross the river where the incident occurred. The historian describes the objects as “great shining silvery shields, spitting fire around the rims… things that came from the skies and returned to the skies.”
This remarkable incident was apparently paralleled by an equally fantastic visitation during the Siege of Tyre (Lebanon) by Alexander in 332 BC.
‘The fortress would not yield, its walls were fifty feet high and constructed so solidly that no siege-engine was able to damage it. The Tyrians were the greatest technicians and builders of war-machines of the time and they intercepted in the air the incendiary arrows and projectiles hurled by the catapults on the city. One day suddenly there appeared over the Macedonian camp these “flying shields”, as they had been called, which flew in triangular formation led by an exceedingly large one, the others were smaller by almost a half. In all there were five. The unknown chronicler narrates that they circled slowly over Tyre while thousands of warriors on both sides stood and watched them in astonishment. Suddenly from the largest “shield” came a lightning-flash that struck the walls, these crumbled, other flashes followed and walls and towers dissolved, as if they had been built of mud, leaving the way open for the besiegers who poured like an avalanche through the breeches. The “flying shields” hovered over the city until it was completely stormed then they very swiftly disappeared aloft, soon melting into the blue sky.

Filer’s Files # 40 – 2016 Are Humans from Another Planet? - PART II
UFO Sightings in the United States
Alabama Lights
Gulf Shores — I was on the State Park Pier on August 7, 2016, photographing the city lights and trying to freeze lightning images with my camera. I first observed a single red orange orb coming up over the city, then another and finally a third. Then I noticed they formed a triangle over the city as I gazed west. They sat there for 5 minutes and then returned over the city. During this time I noticed the water below the pier had gotten lighter but, I kept looking back at the orbs while taking several shots of this phenomenon.
When I got the shots back to the hotel I looked at image 2967 and noticed that something indeed had lit up the water below the pier. It was some strange creature or object that shot water out the back end of it in spurts. It’s clear this was no blow hole from a whale. So there were two unexplainable objects in this image. This thing swam by me going from my left to right as the orbs started their assent to the west over the city. A gal stopped by to see if I was getting any lightning shots and I said yes but, what was more interesting were those three lights hovering over Gulf Shores. She looked and noticed them also. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Object
Hollister — At about 11:30 pm, I was out front of my house talking to my friend and saw a red light stationary in the clear night sky. The object was at about the same altitude as your average Cessna airplane. This is the fourth time seeing these lights in two months.
Last time I saw six low objects moving south east at about 9 pm. I know what normal air traffic looks like and have been using a large telescope for over 12 years observing the sky. I ran and got my Sony high 8 camcorder and filmed it for about two minutes. It was not a drone, lantern, or plane. The light went out was about 11:42 pm. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Light
Colorado Springs— We were walking and noticed the trails of light in the sky.
It happened pretty quick, but I got it on video on September 27, 2016.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Object
Gulf Breeze – On the evening of September 9, 2016, I decided to go to Opal Beach near Gulf Breeze to watch the sunset and take pictures for an art project. Several days later, when looking at my pictures I noticed a dark stationary object in several of the photos. The object was in a single position from 7:02- 7:03 pm, at a height that it cast a shadow on the cloud directly behind it. There was nothing in the photos at the spot two minutes prior to the event and no object one minute after the event. I know it was stationary because my IPhone takes short videos when the photo is taken.. This is the only object which appeared for two minutes and then was gone. The final picture shows a dark disk-shaped object with a pointed antenna-type object on its top and a diamond-shaped field around the craft. It had some solidity as the object appeared to cast a shadow on the cloud behind it. I have 8 photos of the object, showing various shapes/forms, with the final photo being most distinctive. It was NOT a cloud. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Orbs
Evanston — At 7:25 PM on September 27, 2016, I looked out my window to see five bright lights floating over Lake Michigan in front of the South Street Beach area.
They were initially in a linear formation and then moved to a T formation. Three of the orbs slowly broke away to form a triangle.
After 30 minutes the orbs disappeared. A delivery driver coming to my home also saw the lights. There were planes flying past these lights. I have photos and video. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Louisiana Object
On September 9 2016, my wife and I were driving east when we noticed something flying in front of a cloud.
We took this photo. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Minnesota Circle
Elko New Market — I am 19 years old and I snuck out with two other friends to go ding dong ditching and meet up with other friends on September 9, 2016. Right when we got out of my house we noticed something really weird in the sky.
It was a bright ring of lights just hovering in the same spot. We tried to debunk it and figure it out, but couldn’t find any reasoning behind it. So I took two photos of it.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Light
Mansfield— We had a sweet sighting on the way home from getting groceries on September 23. 2016, about 8 PM. Brandy (my fiancé’) noticed two very close bright lights in the sky over Pohatcong Mountain as we were driving East on Allen Road toward Rockport Road/ Grand Avenue, I also noticed them and they at first looked light high intensity landing lights from an airliner that was flying awfully low over the mountain and the local airstrip is unlighted and operates under VFR rules only. It’s also a very short strip. We had just passed the field, it was dark as usual as there are no lights there, and the runway runs North-South, and this craft was approaching from the West, moving towards us very slowly.
Brandy got her phone out and caught a picture as we rounded the top of the small ridge as you start the final downward slope to Rockport Road. It slowed to a crawl for a totally unobstructed view. As we reached the point of the first photo capture area, the craft rotated and the twin lights were no longer visible, but a dimmer illumination was still there. The object light obscured the stars in that area of the sky. The craft remains in the same area and rotated on its axis. It then began to slowly move away and then shot off to the WSW so fast it was as if it simply disappeared. If it was an airplane, it flew like no airplane I have ever seen before. We had the windows down and there was no noise. The mountain there and is about 1600 ft in elevation at the top in that area, and I would estimate it was flying at about 2500 feet. We were a mile away, so it was relatively large in size. You can clearly see the ground to our left as we took the photo pointing toward the WNW. Thanks to David M. Rountree, AES Executive Director, Chief Science Advisor S.P.I.R.I.T. LAB, Website
New York Sightings
Colonie – On September 11, 2016, around 7:10 pm, I was with my sister driving who observed a brilliant light on the sky. When I looked the light was steady and didn’t move for three minutes.
I quickly thought it was a ufo. My sister parked the car and I took pictures with my cell phone. It looked like a cigar type.
Then the first ufo moved and then two more showed up and were steady for about a minute and then the three of them disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Coxsackie – On September 23, 2016, I went out to take photos of the sun like I frequently do. I took 25 photos around 1:00 pm, one after the other. When I got finished, I went inside and downloaded them onto my computer. I was going through each photo, and noticed above the sun an object.
The object was in only one photo even though I took photos right after the other, I have to assume the object was flying so fast that I caught it on only one photo. I believe for the first time in my life, I caught a UFO.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Orbs
Charlotte— I was letting my dogs out on September 24, 2016, and a helicopter was circling the area right behind my house. The object flew over the tree line so bright, very slow, and swerving like a drunk driver. I never saw one this close, although I see them at night all the time, but they are very high. I ran upstairs to tell my lady to come look while I grabbed my phone. As it had sped away, I was able to film the end of my encounter. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Ring
Spring — We were on our balcony around 4 am and saw an extremely bright star or planet on September 27, 2016. I knew it was too bright to be either of those so I used my phone to zoom in on it. I went in the house to grab my telescope and held the telescope in my arms and found the object and got it in focus and could see clearly it was some sort of ship with a 3-way circle of lights underneath. We both became extremely excited and I began to shake quite a bit. We began trying to place our phone lens over the telescope lens to record the object. I was shaking and the telescope would wobble enough that I’d lose it. We had tried for 30 minutes and got a couple seconds of usable footage. We compiled our clips into a couple short gifs. I should note that during the time we saw it to the point of capturing video it had stopped emitting a multitude of colors and. I would come back every half hour or so and check on it and it moved slowly glowing whitish blue until it disappeared. This was on Sept. 23rd and it was back the following night and again the next night. It was back on the 27th but further away. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Vermont Disc
Whitingham — We were at the lake on September 13, 2016, and one part of the whisk circle of clouds opened up. It was pretty unique so I had a friend take a couple pictures.
When we reviewed the pictures we saw an object in the middle of the circle. One picture shows the circle the other picture had the object in it. Nobody saw the object but it was captured in the image. Within 5 min the hole dissipated by the wind. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Virginia Lights
Missville — I was driving home when I saw three glowing objects on November 8, 2014.
I had no clue to what it was, nor did the cars in front of me. We all slowed down and I took pictures with my phone.
The three turned into one and quickly disappeared when I got to the clearing. I did think it had to be UFO’s as I had never seen anything remotely similar.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Lights
Bothell— I was taking the dog out and something bright and flashing caught my eye in the sky on September 26, 2016. It wasn’t a star or plane, and it was rather low on the horizon. I couldn’t see it well, so I went back inside to get my glasses, and cell phone. I could now see the unusual, bright flashing (mostly white but also violet/purple) object, and it seemed to constantly change shape. I took pictures and left the flash on at first, so those didn’t turn out, but the object still shows up in those two pictures. After examining my photos including zooming in, I noticed the more violet/blue color, that changed shape and stationary. I felt afraid flashing the photo thinking “they” might see it from up there. And I surely didn’t want to draw attention to myself. I’m afraid to look even now and can’t sleep. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Lights
Gunnedah — We live on a property and are surrounded by scrub and grazing paddocks and we can see a long way. About 8.25 am, on September 28, 2016, I noticed something very bright in one of our paddocks a half a mile away. I called my husband to come quickly as I thought someone in a white utility was on the place. We looked through our binoculars and thought it was larger four wheel drive utility. The object was extremely bright, almost glowing, and it was difficult to make out what it was exactly as it was very bright.
We decided to drive closer to have a better view and grabbed my camera. It was only out of our sight for that amount of time and when it should have been in our line of sight again it was gone. It being a paddock there was nowhere for it to go without us seeing it drive away but it had just vanished. I also scanned the clear sky. We jumped in our car and drove to where it had been but there were no tire tracks… We checked the ground over an area of about 100 square yards, but nothing had disturbed the ground. It was so bright that I couldn’t make out any details on it and it was difficult to know how large it was. My husband is/was a skeptic but he knows he saw “something” that there is no explanation for and it has shaken him up a bit. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Orb Diamondx
Niagara Falls – I noticed a formation of nine disc like objects flying above as I looked south on September 11, 2016.
They stayed in a tight diamond formation throughout my observation that lasted about ten seconds when the formation flew behind the trees.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Scarborough, Ontario — On September 20, 2016 while on break I went up to the second floor outside facing west and took pictures of the CN Tower in Toronto. Later when reviewing the photos, I found a strange red unknown object caught on film at 10:10 AM. This was NOT seen with the naked eye probably due to distance. They do continue to fly being unnoticed by many.
PS I have witnessed my 57th sighting on September 27, 2016.
Thanks to Paul Shishis.
Norway Lights
Kristiansand – I was walking home on September 27, 2016, at midnight and chanced to test my phone camera on the stars.
I snapped a picture of the one that seemed to shine brighter than the rest as something ran pass, made a weird sound that could have been a badger.
A couple hours later I remembered the picture and saw a strange black outline looking like two disc shaped objects with a light source in each one.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Portugal Orbs
Tavira — We saw a swarm of blinking lights in the north sky over the house on July 30, 2016. It is very difficult to tell the distance from us. They changed positions in the group while standing there. I took some pictures after some minutes as they moved to the south side of the house and stood there. Some more minutes passed before they flew higher up in the sky. They were far too big to be insects. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Disc
Scarborough— My father in law was watching a display team flying in formation over the North Bay on June 29, 2013. He took a few shots with his iPhone and when he reviewed them later he noticed the object in the picture. He did not notice it at the time and it did not show up in any other frames. I imported the picture into iPhoto on my Mac and was able to enlarge the image at top right to show the size and shape in more detail. There were many other people who likely took a photo.
