IS EARTH at War — UFOs Suspected of Sabotage?
Russian space station cargo freighter lost on launch GCI
Five International Space Station resupply missions have been destroyed in recent weeks. At least one mission appears to have been destroyed by a UFO. In the past UFOs have been known to shoot down aircraft and possibly the space shuttle. …Astronauts aboard the International Space Station shouldn’t be unduly affected by the failure of Russia’s Progress 65 cargo mission on Dec. 1, 2016, NASA officials said.
The six astronauts living aboard the International Space Station (ISS) will be OK despite a Russian cargo ship’s failure and recent explosions of resupply missions
The uncrewed Progress 65 freighter fell back to Earth shortly after liftoff Thursday, apparently doomed by a problem with the third stage of its Soyuz rocket. The spacecraft and its 2.6 tons (2.36 metric tons) of food, equipment and other supplies burned up in the atmosphere over southern Russia, Russian space officials said. Russia’s unmanned Progress spacecraft are the workhorse delivery ships of the country’s space fleet. See how Russia’s Progress cargo vehicles work in this Space.com infographic.
“An H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV)-6 from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is scheduled to launch to the space station on Friday, Dec. 9,” he added, referring to another of the four robotic cargo ships that currently ferry supplies to the ISS. (The other two freighters are the Dragon and Cygnus spacecraft, which are built by the American companies SpaceX and Orbital ATK, respectively.)
“Among the U.S. supplies on board were spare parts for the station’s environmental control and life support system, research hardware, crew supplies and crew clothing, all of which are replaceable,” NASA officials wrote in an update Thursday.
The six crewmembers aboard the ISS are NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough (the Expedition 50 commander) and Peggy Whitson; cosmonauts Oleg Novitskiy, Andrei Borisenko and Sergey Ryzhikov; and Frenchman Thomas Pesquet.
ISS crews have weathered cargo-mission failures before. A Cygnus was lost shortly after liftoff in October 2014 when its Antares rocket exploded, for example, and the Progress 59 vehicle didn’t make it to the ISS after its April 2015 launch. And a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket broke apart less than 3 minutes after launch in June 2015, scuttling a Dragon resupply run.
A private Orbital Sciences-built cargo launch to the International Space Station ended in fiery explosion just seconds after liftoff Tuesday night (Oct. 28).
Orbital’s unmanned Antares rocket exploded in a brilliant fireball shortly after launching from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia at 6:22 p.m. EDT on Oct. 28th, 2014, crashing back down to the launch pad in a flaming heap.
The Antares was carrying Orbital’s unmanned Cygnus spacecraft, which was toting 5,000 pounds (2,268 kilograms) of food, scientific experiments and other supplies on this flight — the third cargo mission to the space station under a $1.9 billion contract the company holds with NASA. You can see photos of the Antares rocket explosion here.
The Dragon spacecraft cargo run to the International Space Station blasted off from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida on June 28th, 2015 and exploded during flight. SpaceX wanted to attempt to land the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket on a ocean bare.
Space X CRS-7 mission ends in disaster on June 28, 2015, when the latest Dragon spacecraft cargo run to the ISS. The Dragon blasted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Following a nominal liftoff, Falcon 9 experienced an overpressure event in the upper stage liquid oxygen tank 139 seconds into flight, resulting in loss of mission.
Prior to the mishap, the first stage of the vehicle, including all nine Merlin 1D engines, operated nominally; the first stage actually continued to power through the overpressure event on the second stage for several seconds following the mishap. In addition, the Dragon spacecraft not only survived the second stage event, but also continued to communicate until the vehicle dropped below the horizon and out of range.
SpaceX has led the investigation efforts with oversight from the FAA and participation from NASA and the U.S. Air Force. Preliminary analysis suggests the overpressure event in the upper stage liquid oxygen tank was initiated by a flawed piece of support hardware (a “strut”) inside the second stage. Several hundred struts fly on every Falcon 9 vehicle with no previous failures. The strut that we believe failed was designed and material certified to handle 10,000 lbs of force, but failed at 2,000 lbs, a five-fold difference. Detailed close-out photos of stage construction show no visible flaws or damage of any kind.
Dramatic Video Shows Huge Scale of SpaceX Rocket Explosion
Mike Wall, Space.com Writer reports: The explosion of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket this morning September 1, 2016, was caught on video, and viewing it is quite an experience. An unidentified flying object possibly two was seen moving near the rocket just prior to and during the explosion.
Loss of Falcon vehicle during propellant fills operation originated around upper-stage oxygen tank. Cause is still unknown. SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk said yesterday via his Twitter account, @elonmusk.
Another report claims the two-stage Falcon 9 and its payload, a communications satellite called Amos-6, were destroyed during an engine test Thursday, which was part of the standard protocol to prepare for a planned Saturday (Sept. 3) launch from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
“The anomaly originated around the upper-stage oxygen tank and occurred during propellant loading of the vehicle,” The rocket’s upper stage exploded at 9:07 a.m. EDT (1307 GMT), setting off a dramatic, fiery cascade captured on video by U.S. Launch Report, a nonprofit that helps disabled veterans experience launches. (The explosion occurs at the 1-minute, 11-second mark in the video.)
The initial fireball quickly fills the entire left half of the video’s field of view; a few seconds later, Amos-6 falls to the ground, setting off another series of explosions. Progress spacecraft have flown most of the unmanned missions to the ISS. More than 150 flights have been launched, all except Progress M-12M, Progress M-27M and Progress MS-04/65P[1] have reached their destinations, with no injuries or loss of life after launch; Some ninety missions have been flow successfully to the ISS but now a series of unsuccessful missions have occurred. The failures may be caused by a series of accidents or by intervention.
On Feb. 1, 2003, space shuttle Columbia broke up as it returned to Earth, killing the seven astronauts on board. NASA suspended space shuttle flights for more than two years as it investigated the disaster.
An investigation board determined that a large piece of foam fell from the shuttle’s external tank and fatally breached the spacecraft wing. This problem with foam had been known for years. About 82 seconds after Columbia left the ground, a piece of foam fell from a “bipod ramp” that was part of a structure that attached the external tank to the shuttle.
The piece of external tank foam from an area just in front of and under the left nose of Columbia would hit the left attachment point of the nose Bipod and was nowhere near Columbia’s left wing The impact of the foam was hidden by the left wing along with the Bipod, so you can’t see the impact, only the powdered foam after the impact. No foam or debris hit Columbia’s left wing. Especially not when Columbia was moving at supersonic speed through the very thin atmosphere near outer space.
At the time of the accident I received reports of a UFO near the Columbia. The Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated in flames over Texas on February 1, 2003, after it was hit by a mysterious purple/green streak or object that is shown hitting the Columbia.
DID A MSTERIOUS FLASH CAUSE THE SHUTTLE DISASTER?
TEXAS — The Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated in flames over Texas on February 1, 2003, after it was hit by a mysterious purple/green streak or object that is shown hitting the Columbia. NASA claims a couple of pounds of foam insulation that broke off the shuttle booster tank may have damaged the left wing. It seems the light weight of the insulation would make any damage to the shuttle minimal since they are moving at the same speed in the final phase of entering space. Video that I have seen shows a powerful electrical plasma or lightning-like strike that causes significant damage to the left wing and the tail of the Shuttle.
Drawing of witness testimony
We do not know what caused the electrical plasma strike, but this has happened before on several occasions. UFOs have been filmed launching similar electrical strikes at US missiles and destroying them. The electrical charge may be caused by unknown high level electrical phenomenon that caused an imbalance between the earth’s electrosphere and the Shuttle.
It is, also, remotely possible that terrorists have obtained the Physics International electrical beam weapons. The Air Force reports picking up an unknown flying object moving away from the Shuttle as it disintegrated over Texas. Six Americans and Israel’s first astronaut lost their lives. People reported hearing “a big bang” at about 9 AM, as the Shuttle reentered the atmosphere and was operating normally at an altitude of 207,000 feet traveling at 12,500 mph. High-resolution images taken from a ground-based Air Force tracking camera in southwestern US show serious structural damage to the inboard leading edge of Columbia’s left wing, as the crippled Shuttle flew overhead about 60 seconds. before the vehicle broke up. The images, under analysis at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, show a jagged edge on the left inboard wing structure near where the wing begins to intersect the fuselage. They also show the Shuttle’s right aft yaw thrusters firing, trying to correct the vehicle’s attitude that was being adversely affected by the left wing damage. Columbia’s fuselage and right wing appear normal. NASA is now considering the Red Sprite or Blue Jets phenomena that generally travel up from thunder clouds into space. However, no bad weather was reported over the Western US. “In the shuttle’s final eight minutes, the morning of Feb. 1, temperatures surged in the left landing gear compartment, and the brake lines began overheating one by one. Sensors began showing overheating across other areas of the left wing and adjoining fuselage. Then Mission Control lost all contact.
ATKINS, TEXAS — The Director of NUFORC, Peter Davenport spoke with an eyewitness to the Shuttle disaster, who reports that both he and his grandchildren had witnessed a green, self-luminous object move toward the Space Shuttle very quickly, seemingly from the southwest, as the Shuttle streaked across the Texas sky. The witness estimated that they first noticed the object an estimated two seconds after they had first witnessed the Shuttle in the sky to the northwest and just prior to the shuttle’s explosion. He was there with his grandchildren watching for Columbia’s re-entry and watched as it crossed from horizon to horizon and I can’t imagine having a better overall vantage point than the spot where we stood. I saw…green light, explosion, sonic boom, etc.
The witness writes, “On May 23’rd, 1959 I had a very “up close and personal” encounter with two UFOs.” Which brings me to the green light and the Shuttle? We now know that pieces of tile were being ripped off Columbia over the west coast, and of course that would be most people’s explanation for the green light. I wish I could rationalize the light away with the tile theory. I’ve tried. But I can’t get my mind around this thing for several reasons. Why was it at such a great distance from Columbia? Why was it closing the gap between itself and the shuttle? What could have come off Columbia at that point that would burn such a bright, unremitting green? And most importantly, why wasn’t the green object leaving a smoke trail? My eight year old grandson said it all when he asked, “Grandpa what’s that green light following the shuttle? thCNN and radio (700 WLW) reports that, “The US Space Command reported tracking an “object” moving alongside Columbia while the shuttle was still in space. They said it “may” have been a piece of the shuttle, but they don’t know yet. During the first few hours of the coverage of the disaster released video showed an object following the Shuttle about an estimated thousand feet behind the Shuttle that seemed to launch a bolt of lightning like plasma toward the Shuttle.
David Perlman of The San Francisco Chronicle viewed the photos later that night, and the Chronicle reported an electrified discharge seen around the track of the shuttle’s passage. “They clearly record an electrical discharge like a lightning bolt flashing past,” said the photographer. NASA dispatched former shuttle astronaut Tammy Jernigan to acquire the camera. A Chronicle reporter was present when Jernigan arrived. “It certainly appears very anomalous,” she said. “We sure will be very interested in taking a very hard look at this.” In the critical shot, a glowing purple rope of light corkscrews down toward the plasma trail, appears to pass behind it, then cuts sharply toward it from below. As it merges with the plasma trail, the streak itself brightens for a distance, and then fades. The pictures, taken with a Nikon-880 digital camera on a tripod, reveal what appear to be bright electrical phenomena flashing around the track of the shuttle’s passage. Thanks to: SAN FRANCISCO (Chronicle) – 02-Feb-03 Photos show odd images near shuttle. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi? f=/c/a/2003/02/02/MN221641.DTL (Unable to locate this photo)
“We Have Lost Many Men and Planes Trying To
Intercept UFOs”
Timothy Good writes, “The destruction or disappearance of military aircraft during interceptions of UFOs continued apace.” As General Benjamin Chidlaw, former commanding general of Air (later Aerospace) Defense Command told Robert C. Gardener (ex USAF) in 1953: “We have stack of reports of flying saucers. We take them seriously, when you consider we have lost many men and planes trying to intercept them.” Leonard Stringfield, the former Air Force intelligence officer was told by a reliable source in the 1950s that the “Air Force was losing about a plane a day to the UFOs.” Stringfield was reliably informed. According to US Defense Department figures, from 1952 until the end of October 1956, there were 18,662 major accidents of military aircraft, broken down as follows:
Year Air Force – Navy Losses
1952 2,274 2,086
1953 2,075 2,325
1954 1,873 1,911
1955 1,664 1,566
1956 1,530 1,358
Of this astonishing accident total, most involved fast new jets (such as those scrambled in UFO interceptions), of which 56.2 per cent were found to be caused by pilot error; 8.1 per cent by ground-crew or other personnel failure; 23.4 per cent by failure of parts and equipment in the aircraft; 2.8 per cent by various ‘unsafe conditions’, and –9.5 per cent (1,773) were due to ‘unknown factors’. Thanks to Timothy Good’ book, “Need to Know” P.172
Editor’s Comments: When I chased a UFO we exceeded the red lined aircraft air speed by 20 knots. In the excitement of the chase it is easy to exceed aircraft capabilities and often some part of the aircraft may fail. Many stories are told of firing missiles and making direct hits on the UFOs that were unharmed only to have them return the fire and destroy the interceptor.
In October 1947, Chidlaw he became deputy commanding general of Air Materiel Command, with rank of lieutenant general, and full commander on September 1, 1949. General Chidlaw was given the task to evaluate UFO sightings and his group agreed the phenomena was real and viable and should be researched. It is likely his team attempted to develop their own flying discs using the Roswell crash debris that were stored here at Wright Field. On July 29, 1951, he received his fourth star and the command of Air Defense Command at Ent Air Force Base, Colorado. Most fighter interceptors were under his command and launched to engage the UFOs
PERU FIGHTER FIRES ON AN ALIEN CRAFT
LA JOYA AIRFORCE BASE — New information has been released by Oscar Santa Maria Huertas, a commander of the Peruvian Air Force, regarding the incident that took place at 07:15 hours on 11 April, 1980, when he was orderd to fly his aircraft – a Sukhoi SU-22, the most technologically advanced fighter at the time – to knock a UFO out of the sky. It was “a completely spherical object, its upper section resembled a cream-colored porcelain, with a round, broad, metallic-grey base, like that of an ashtray.” The anomalous flying object flew at “great speed and was 10 meters in diameter, making it a very easy target to bring down.” This was recorded due to the fact that the flying object was passing over the La Joya military base in Arequipa. Peru had acquired the most advanced military technology from the Soviet Union, and was keeping it secret. Peru thought it was about to go to war against Chile at any moment to recover lost territory. That morning, Santa María boarded a Sukhoi SU-22 loaded with 140 rounds to fire against the strange flying object. He pursued it and fired 64 rounds, creating a huge wall of fire. He was startled to see that the object had not suffered any damage whatsoever.
Oscar Santa María said that the effect produced by this weaponry was devastating, and there was no chance of the object emerging unscathed, but the UFO had not been damaged. It seemed to have acquired an intelligence that allowed it to move freely and escape. At some point during the pursuit, which lasted around 25 minutes, he felt the UFO somehow “knew” the maneuvers the warplane would engage in. “It was an odd sensation. When I reached a certain altitude to get it in my sights and fire, the object disrupted the operation and settled at the same altitude and right beside my plane.” Upon being asked why he had been chosen, he said “he was the best among the combat pilots” and his superior, of course, wanted the object blown out of the sky as soon as possible and efficiently. Oscar says he came within 100 meters of the object. “I didn’t notice that it was spinning. It didn’t have windows or rivets, either. What startled me most is that it had no means of propulsion like any other aircraft.” Santa María says the military radar units could pick up his jet, but not the UFO. However, ground personnel could see it from the ground, looking like a large luminous object in the sky. Nearly 460 crewmen were ordered to their stations to repel the mysterious object. Nearly thirteen hundred people were on hand, all of them watching the maneuvers between the interceptor and the UFO. A total of 1800 people at the base witnessed the incident. Lacking fuel to continue pursuit, Oscar returned to base. The department in charge of investigating the subject of UFOs in Peru, a division of the Aerospace Interest Office, classified it as case 0007 in its new stage of investigation.

Illegal Voting
Californian Richard Anderson writes — Whether Democrat, Republican, or Independent, here’s something to think about: We hear a cacophony bleating from the media and the Hillary supporters that she won the popular vote and therefore she should be president, 60,839,497 to 60,265,847. 47.8% to 47,3% with the remaining 4.9% going to the other candidates. But here is a more in-depth analysis: Trump won the popular vote in 31 states to her 19 and DC. Trump had 62% to her 19%. Trump led in the total popular vote for all states except California. She won California 5,860,714 to his 3,151,821. 61.6% to 33.1% exclusive of the other candidates. Thus California gave Hillary the popular vote for all states as claimed by the Democrats and their media supporters.
But deduct her California vote from her national vote, it leaves her with 54,978,783, and deduct Trumps California vote from his national total, it leaves him with 57,113,976, he wins in a landslide in the total for the other 49 states, 51.3% to her 48.7%. winning the rest of the country by a substantial margin. This exemplifies the wisdom of the Electoral College, to prevent the vote of any one populous state from overriding the vote of the others. With our voter registration available when getting a driver’s license combined with undocumented immigrants allowed driver’s licenses we have no controls in place to keep non-citizens from voting.
California’s L.A. County as the repository for the most provisional ballots—40%—cast in the country. The Election Integrity Project tells Independent Journal Review that ‘voter impersonation’ is easy and happens all the time. Now, retired ICE special agent Claude Arnold has the answer to the question of whether illegal aliens vote in elections. He told Fox News that he’s worked in six states, arrested at least 1,000 illegal immigrants during his career and found that most of them had voter registration cards.
The ‘Motor Voter’ law requires that all people receiving driver’s licenses be offered voter registration cards. The District of Columbia, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Vermont and Washington allow those who are in the U.S. illegally to apply for a licenses and register to vote.

Filer’s Files #50 – 2016 UFOs Suspected of Sabotage? - PART II
UFO Sightings in the United States
California Object
Venice Beach — I came out at night to do exactly what I did and that is film a UFO since.it is my hobby. Images were taken on July 11, 2016.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Lights
Bronson– I was walking my dog late morning on December 2, 2016. I looked up and saw an unidentified object heading north. It didn’t turn and just kept flying in a northern direction. It was low enough to hear sound from it but no sound. It was white and had a weird front end like angled bars connected to it.
By the time I got my phone out of my pocket it was heading away from me and the picture isn’t very good. Can you all enhance the photo? It startled me but since UFO’s are common place now days I wasn’t surprised.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Idaho Disc
Mountain Home — I never saw this object at the time. I was just taking some landscape photos and was going to shoot an attractive model. I was shooting with a lens of an apx 14-54mm, camera settings at F8, ISO 200, and a shutter speed of 1/640th second. I never noticed the object it until I downloaded the image to my laptop the following day. This was on Memorial Day weekend in 2013. I called the Public Affairs office at Mountain Home Air Force Base and they assured me that they were not flying at this time as it was a Friday evening of the holiday weekend. I did email this to them, and the Public Affairs officer said, “He would have his photographer look at it but I never heard back from them. I just thought it was interesting that something like that is still pixilated when zooming in on the object, yet the clouds and horizon are much sharper. Makes me believe this thing was flying at a pretty fast pace when a shutter speed of 1/640th of a second couldn’t freeze it. I have photos of the Thunderbird Air Show where I could freeze the action as they flew in front of me much closer than this object was. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Diamond
Parsippany-Troy Hills — While driving west on Route 78 I observed what looked like a black, diamond shaped ufo hovering in the air on December 5, 2016.
I took out my phone and tried to take a video but I had to take the next exit. The video is very short and not very clear, but perhaps it can be enhanced. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New York Object
Fishkill – I was in my backyard taping the moon on November 11, 2016. A shooting sound together with a swish pulled my attention, but all I’ve saw was a trail of a shooting star. I first thought it was a meteor. When I went to watch the video I noticed a yellow red orange object with some symmetrical characteristics, and also it changed direction. My impression is that the object could be a kind of spaceship. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Image
Waynesville — I have lots of other pictures taken at night of the strange critters but I couldn’t see them during the day on October 30, 2016. I get sick when I observe them at night and I noticed recently that during the day I was getting the same kind of sickness. I decided to try shooting them during the day too. They are very small. The triangles at night are what made me start paying attention. There are always triangle lights and orbs too, day and night. I have figured out that the orbs are poison that makes me sick. They seem to be busy harvesting something or studying. I am not scared but I do feel like I have radiation poisoning when I go outside. I have thousands of night pictures,.but never see the objects with my naked eye. I feel their presence and pull out my camera and start shooting. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Lights
Springfield — I was taking a drive on highway 2-75 towards Columbus, Ohio and I saw lights in the sky on November 29, 2016. The color lights were white, green, and red at the time and it looked cylinder like. When I saw it, I immediately thought UFO. As we were getting closer to the object it was getting larger, but didn’t look like a cylinder anymore. At this point it was starting to look like an airplane because it took more of a triangular shape. Now it was huge and no longer looked like an airplane, because of its massive size and obvious triangular shape. I start taking snap chat videos. Now it’s so huge I have absolutely no idea what’s going on. And I’m thinking “maybe it’s a plane crashing” because we were also near the Wright Patterson Air Force Base. I absolutely freak out that this is a UFO and it’s enormous. It was blackish gray base with red lights and three white lights one on each corner as it passed in a flash. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oklahoma Light
Oklahoma – I was at home watching the news and heard about the super moon on November 13, 2016. I went outside with my smart phone to take picture of the moon. At the time of snapping the shot I did not notice the lights. A few days later I noticed the reddish orange lights at the bottom right. It appeared not to be a plane or helicopter. What I see is two rectangle reddish orange lights shrouded in clouds as if you were looking up at the bottom of something. All my life I have lived less than 5 miles from Tinker Air Force Base and have seen hundreds of aircraft but they never looked like what was captured in the photo. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Object
Lebanon— I witnessed an object above the horizon shortly after a hailstorm on December 4th, 2016 at approximately 4:40 pm.
I witnessed the object fall in a straight path for five minutes, during which time I took several photos and video. The object disappeared at the horizon.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Beaverton — I took a picture of the sky while walking to my car in the Kohl’s parking lot on December 6, 2016. After getting home and looking at the picture I noticed the green orb in the clouds. I didn’t initially see the object when taking the picture but the sun was really bright and I had sunglasses on. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Pennsylvania DOTS
My daughter and I ran over to the store on December 4, 2016, and returning home saw a partial rainbow. I pulled over and took two pictures. I began driving down the road and when I came to a stop sign decided to take another one. We came home and I did not look at the photos till much later. While looking at what we thought was a partial rainbow, I noticed some white dots.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
South Carolina NO wings
Hartsville – I watched two UFO’s that I couldn’t identify/ on November 24, 2016. I have never seen anything like them The first one initially looked like a helicopter with a headlight and it was slower moving than an airplane. As it got closer, I noticed that I couldn’t hear it, yet it was close enough that I would have heard the blades. It started to curve away slowly, and several small lights blinked in a circular pattern, and then went dark. The second craft was a couple hundred yards behind, and had the same appearance of a headlight. I ran inside to get a camera; the second craft was now “dark” and just above the trees, heading away.
There was no sound, wings, tail, blades, and no navigation lights just kind of a dark spherical shape at. 5:37 pm, that were not normal aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Triangle
San Marcos — I had been stargazing late one evening, until the early morning hours. I had my attention set on a particular group of stars in the night sky. When suddenly, the stars I had been looking at seemed to just disappear, and the starlight just went out. Then, several more stars began disappearing from view. I suddenly noticed a black mass drifting across the sky. I strained my eyes, and shielded the light from the street lamp. I couldn’t make out the shape until it turned towards the southwest. It was then, that I could see that it was triangular in shape without lights or sound. I was in shock by its massive size of over two football fields. I was so captivated I froze, and just stood there watching in amazement. It was like a slow blimp. Anything that huge, traveling that slow would just fall out of the sky. I’ll always remember and know what I had seen wasn’t from this world. Thanks to MUFON CMS
VERMONT Disc
St. Rutland– On November 19, 2016, around 8 pm at East Center, I was getting ready to leave a friend’s driveway. I looked up in the clear night sky and wished to myself that a UFO would show up. Then I saw flashing lights, a possible plane, pretty far up, that was stationary. With that I ran to my friend’s door and asked them to come out and pointed this out to them. There was a normal plane up there too, so we could see the difference in size. It seemed very long and two lights were separated by at least a few hundred feet. One was a light, and one was a white light. I could not see the shape of the object above a plane. We see another plane with new red and whites lights with all kinds of sparkling lights within a triangle shape. The one female friend said she was getting scared of this one, the male of the party then went inside. Then I see a white lighted object moving north. NOTE: The above image is CGI.

Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Cylinder
Bellbowrie — Ufo sighting of pill shaped red and white cylindrical object over Brisbane, during full moon rising of October 16, 2016. It was recorded on an unmanned time-lapse video and later discovered upon viewing of the digital images (12 sequential frames from 559 600 shots). Several lights appear during the time-lapse (total play time of 11 seconds) I have not yet closely examined the others. Note: as has been the case previously when I recorded such footage – the camera (panasonic lumix fz1000 bridge camera with leica zoom lens) which was set to manual focus. I mysteriously lost focus near the end of the recording. This object was descending on a steady flight path and might be an aircraft. It doesn’t appear to be a case of motion blur; rather an evenly halved red and white body. It is a well lit, thick cylinder instead of just what i would normally see from a conventional aircraft.

Canada Humming
Officials in Canada are attempting to find the source of a mysterious sound which has been blamed for driving wildlife away from a popular hunting area. The puzzling noise, which has been called both a ‘hum’ and a ‘ping,’ began being heard during the summer months in a remote part of northern Canada.
It is believed that the sound is coming from the ocean floor and residents of the region lament that, since it started, whales and seals have stopped being seen in the area. http://www.coasttocoastam.com/This is particularly troubling because many of the people who live there rely on hunting those animals for both income and food. As such, some suspect that the sound may not be an accident and theorize that it could actually have been intentionally unleashed upon the area by an environmental group attempting to protect the animals. Another theory for the sound is that it could be coming from a mining operation; it is unlikely, based on their knowledge of groups permitted to work in the waters.

India Red Objects
Chennai, Tamil Nadu — On November 26, 2016, we first saw a red light in the west moving towards the south.
We thought it could have been a rear view of a flight even though it was suspicious.
But what shocked us was it was followed by four other red bright objects moving slowly in the same direction.

Torino – I saw rotating disk, very reflective flying over Torino suburbs on December 4, 2016
It was able to invert direction immediately and without any sound emission or other perceptible vibrations. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Jamaica Lights
Montego Bay — Standing on my balcony looking out into the dark ocean at about 11 pm when I saw three lights appear in the water about 20 feet from beach on July 19, 2016. They moved very fast through the water at times disappearing and reappearing in different spot. The water is about 15 feet deep in that area. They appeared to be searching the area. At times it looked like a light beam appeared on top of the water. I took video and pictures and the hotel assured me there were no scuba divers or lights in the area. This occurred three more time over my 14 day stay, Thanks to MUFON CMS
Serbia Large Light
Svrljig— On November 3, 2016, at 5:45 at my local time, I stepped out of my front-yard and looked up in the sky and immediately noticed a large object in the clear sky. I see the stars and the object was so much larger than everything else. The object did not move for a couple of seconds. Before that it was moving to the east and after the brief stop it continued in the same direction for another 15 seconds. Then suddenly the object started to FADE away. It faded away from the outside to the inside equally on all sides, while still moving. The inside of it seemed to be a clear white color with a touch of yellow, while everything around it was a glowing whitish transparent color. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Spain Cylinder
Cadiz— He was walking with some friends towards the beacon of German Beach (Sahara) while he usually takes pictures frequently.
Upon returning home we download the photos on the computer and saw the anomaly, but at first we thought it was a cloud.
When we viewed more closely, we saw that it was something else. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Lights
Caldicot, Monmouthshir — I just crossed over from the traffic lights by Woodstock Way Junction on November 27, 2016. I looked up and saw a very low bright flying craft. My first thought was it was a meteorite or Chinese lantern. It hovered above me for at least 3-5 seconds, and took out my phone, by that time the craft sped off, across the road above the trees. I didn’t have time to zoom my camera on my iPhone 4 so I just took two pictures and recorded the object. My phone ran out of storage, so watched the object fly out of view. I believe it was a military triangle drone, or the black triangle. Thanks to MUFON CMS

"Het aantal bekende zwarte gaten verdubbelt de komende twee jaar"
"Het aantal bekende zwarte gaten verdubbelt de komende twee jaar"
Tim Kraaijvanger
Dankzij een nieuwe methode van astronomen van de universiteit van Waterloo worden er vanaf nu tien zwarte gaten per jaar ontdekt. De onderzoekers beweren dat het aantal bekende zwarte gaten over twee jaar twee keer zo groot is en dat we over tien jaar volledig inzicht hebben in de geschiedenis van zwarte gaten.
“Binnen tien jaar is er voldoende data om zwarte gaten te bestuderen als een groep”, zegt professor Avery Broderick. “We kunnen dan de geschiedenis van stellaire zwarte gaten blootleggen.”
ZO ONTSTAAT EEN ZWART GAT
Een stellair zwart gat is een zwart gat die ontstaat nadat een zware ster implodeert. Dit gebeurt aan het einde van zijn leven, wanneer er een eind is gekomen aan de kernfusie. Kernfusie zorgt namelijk voor een hydrostatisch evenwicht tussen uitwaartse en inwaartse druk. Wanneer de uitwaartse druk wegvalt, krijgt de inwaarts gerichte zwaartekracht de overhand en stort de ster in elkaar.
Zwaartekrachtsgolven Het is lastig om stellaire zwarte gaten te ontdekken, omdat zwarte gaten al het licht en materie absorberen. Ze produceren geen straling. Het eerste directe bewijs van een zwarte gat kwam begin dit jaar, toen astronomen de zwaartekrachtsgolven waarnamen van twee samensmeltende zwarte gaten. Deze ontdekking werd gedaan door de Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO).
“We weten niet hoe zeldzaam zo’n gebeurtenis is en hoeveel zwarte gaten er precies zijn in ons Melkwegstelsel”, vervolgt Broderick. “Voor het eerst gebruiken we de data van LIGO om op grote schaal op zoek te gaan naar zwarte gaten.”
Microlensing en interferometrie De onderzoekers gaan twee technieken combineren: microlensing en interferometrie. Gravitationele microlensing vindt plaats wanneer een donkere object – bijvoorbeeld een zwart gat – tussen ons en een andere lichtbron schuift. Het licht van de ster buigt om het zwaartekrachtsveld van het zwarte gat om de aarde te bereiken. Hierdoor lijkt de achtergrondster tijdelijk veel feller. Broderick en zijn collega’s gebruiken radiotelescopen om deze gebeurtenissen vast te leggen in realtime. “Dankzij een radiotelescoop (interferometrie, red.) krijgen we meer dan alleen een foto te zien, maar weten we ook direct hoe zwaar een object is, wat de afstand is en hoe snel het object door de Melkweg raast”, zegt student Mansour Karami.
Paper De methode is verder toegelicht in een paper in het wetenschappelijke vakblad The Astrophysical Journal. We zijn benieuwd of de voorspelling van de onderzoekers uitkomt. Over een paar jaar weten we het.
There's water, water everywhere on the dwarf planet Ceres, according to new research. New observations have provided direct evidence that water ice is ubiquitous on the surface and shallow subsurface of this massive asteroid.
Ceres is the largest object in the asteroid belt that lies between Mars and Jupiter, and has long been suspected of containing significant amounts of water — estimates projected up to 30 percent of its total mass. Evidence has pointed to water ice being mixed with the rock on Ceres' surface, and in a few rare cases, more concentrated patches of exposed ice have been found. Ceres has even belched up plumes of water vapor.
The new results come from a global map of Ceres showing the distribution of hydrogen, which can then be used to infer the presence of water. The data supports the theory that Ceres' water content separated from the rock content, and formed an ice-rich crust on the dwarf planet. The fact that so much water is still present on Ceres "confirms predictions that water ice can lie for billions of years within a meter of the surface," the authors write in the new paper detailing the findings. [Amazing Photos of Dwarf Planet Ceres]
NASA’s Dawn spacecraft determined the hydrogen content of the upper yard, or meter, of Ceres’ surface. Blue indicates where hydrogen content is higher, near the poles, while red indicates lower content at lower latitudes.
The global map was created using an instrument on NASA's Dawn probe, which is currently orbiting the dwarf planet, called the Gamma Ray and Neutron Detector (GRaND). This instrument detects two kinds of particles: neutrons, one of the particles that make up atoms, and gamma rays, very high-energy light. When cosmic rays (very high-energy particles from space) crash into the surface of the dwarf planet, the collision can create a spray of debris particles, including neutrons and gamma rays. But the debris isn't random; the characteristics of some of those gamma rays and neutrons can provide information about the chemical composition of the surface of Ceres and to certain depths below the surface. So scientists looking at data from GRaND can learn about the abundance of elements, including potassium, iron and hydrogen on the surface of Ceres, and to a depth of about 3 feet (1 meter).
The instrument cannot directly detect water molecules, but that can be inferred from the data, according to the authors. One way this is done is with computer models, which can recreate the evolution of Ceres, producing various possible outcomes that show how those elements (and water) would be distributed today.
Comparing the models with the new map shows that water ice on Ceres is concentrated near the poles: At high latitudes (past about 40 degrees in both hemispheres), water ice on the surface of Ceres and in the layers just under the surface may compose up to 27 percent of Ceres' mass, according to the new research. Near the equator, the water ice concentration is much lower.
They researchers also compared the map of Ceres with a map of Vesta, another body in the asteroid belt. The data from those global maps show that Ceres has over 100 times more hydrogen than Vesta, and that the hydrogen is distributed more evenly over the surface. That indicates some kind of global process, which implies that water was (and still is) a large component of Ceres' composition, according to the lead author of the new research, Thomas Prettyman, principal investigator for GRaND. Prettyman spoke at a news conference today (Dec. 15) at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco.
Prettyman also noted that Ceres' composition has been compared with a family of meteorites called carbonaceous chondrites. These rocks, like most asteroids in the asteroid belt, have evolved very little since the early days of the solar system. But the new map (which also shows the distribution of iron and potassium on Ceres) shows some key differences between Ceres and these meteorites.
"If you look at the elemental composition of Ceres, it bears some resemblance to the carbonaceous contrite meteorites," Prettyman said. "But there are differences that support the idea that ice and rock that came together and formed Ceres actually separated in the interior and were redistributed by processes like convection."
It is possible that Ceres harbors a liquid ocean deep below its surface, but if that is the case, the ocean is likely composed of a very salty chemical mixture, with little or no water, according to Carol Raymond, deputy principal investigator of the Dawn mission, who also spoke at the news conference. Instead, the new results indicate Ceres' water is largely stored in ice deposits near the surface.
A separate study appearing in the journal Nature and also released today revealed the presence of a concentrated patch of surface ice on Ceres, located in a regions cloaked in permanent shadow. But this and other patches of surface ice deposits are "rare," according to the paper's authors, and don't add up to anywhere near the total amount of ice now thought to lie buried just under Ceres' surface.
The Dawn probe entered into orbit around Ceres in March 2015. The spacecraft completed its primary mission in June, and continues to study Ceres as part of its extended mission.
Einstein's Theory Just Put the Brakes on the Sun's Spin
Einstein's Theory Just Put the Brakes on the Sun's Spin
By Ian O'Neill, Seeker

Although the sun is our nearest star, it still hides many secrets. But it seems that one solar conundrum may have been solved and a theory originally proposed in 1905 by Albert Einstein could be at the root ofit all.
NASA
Twenty years ago, solar astronomers realized that the uppermost layer of the sun rotates slower than the rest of the sun's interior. This is odd. It is well known the sun rotates faster at its equator than at its poles — a phenomenon known as "differential rotation" that drives the sun's 11-year solar cycle — but the fact that the sun has a sluggish upper layer has been hard to understand. It's as if there's some kind of force trying to hold it in place while the lower layers churn below it.
Now, researchers from University of Hawaii Institute for Astronomy (IfA), Brazil, and Stanford University may have stumbled on an answer and it could all be down to fundamental physics. It seems that the light our sun generates has a braking effect on the sun's surface layers.
"The sun won't stop spinning anytime soon, but we've discovered that the same solar radiation that heats the Earth is 'braking' the sun because of Einstein's Special Relativity, causing it to gradually slow down, starting from its surface," said Jeff Kuhn, of IfA Maui, in a statement.
Special relativity predicts that photons, which carry the electromagnetic force (i.e. light), also carry a tiny amount of momentum. If you have enough photons travelling away from an object, they will carry away a large amount of momentum. In the case of the sun's 4 billion year lifetime, the surface has lost a lot of momentum to photons, causing a slowdown of the uppermost 5 percent of the sun. This mechanism, called the Poynting-Robertson effect, has been observed in interplanetary dust, which feels the drag of the sun's radiation, causing it to fall from the asteroid belt into the inner solar system.
What affects dust inevitably affects the soup of super-heated gas in the sun's upper layers and, over its lifetime, the drag caused by photons being emitted from the sun has created a measurable and, until now, mysterious effect.
Using several years of data from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), the researchers were able to measure waves traveling through the sun to precisely measure the size of the layer that is experiencing this slowdown. The technique, known as "helioseismology," is very similar to measuring the seismic waves travelling through the Earth to measure the strength of an earthquake. The material these seismic waves travel through changes the waves so seismologists can "see" underground.
Though the sun isn't a solid planet made from rock and metal, its dense plasma interior also allows waves to travel, creating oscillations on the surface that can be measured. Helioseismology therefore allows astronomers to "see" into our nearest star, revealing many details about its interior that may not be obvious on the surface. And in this case, by using helioseismology and studying the sun's magnetic field passing from space into the sun's interior, we can gauge how much of a drag Einstein's special relativity has had on the sun's surface.
"This is a gentle torque that is slowing it down, but over the Sun's 5 billion year lifetime it has had a very noticeable influence on its outer 35,000 kilometers [22,000 miles]," said Kuhn. These findings have accepted for publication in the journal Physical Review Letters and can be previewed on the arXiv pre-print service.
Using our sun as a laboratory for other stars, Kuhn's team believe that a similar effect likely happens for all stars and could have a strong influence on stellar evolution. Now solar astronomers are very interested to understand how this solar slowdown impacts the sun's magnetic field that threads through the entire solar system. As the sun's magnetism is the root cause of space weather that can trigger solar flares and coronal mass ejections that could interfere with satellites and power grids, this research could have a key role to play in our understanding of solar impacts on Earth.
California's remote, beautiful, and foreboding Death Valley has held a mystery for almost a century: it has stones that seem to move on their own, when no one is looking. It happens at Racetrack Playa, a dry lakebed known for its "sailing stones." This effect occurs at a few other places as well, though Death Valley is the most famous spot. Thanks to some high-tech sleuthing, the mystery may have been solved, at least partly.
In their book "Mysteries of the World: Unexplained Wonders and Mysterious Phenomena," Herbert Genzmer and Ulrich Hellenbrand state that "the perfectly flat, dry ground is scoured and scraped with paths that suggest these boulders are being moved along the ground... there is no indication of how this movement could have been brought about by outside forces, and no stone has ever been observed actually making its way across the ground."
Not all of the stones in Death Valley move. Those that do only move every two to three years, and they don't all move at the same time or in the same direction. In fact, some seem to have made abrupt 90-degree turns, judging from the tracks, which range from tens of feet to hundreds of feet long. Most of the stones are not huge boulders but instead range from about 6 to 18 inches (15 to 45 centimeters) in diameter.
Several theories have been proposed to explain this curious phenomenon, including some sort of localized, unknown magnetic effect. This theory has been discounted for a variety of reasons including that many of the stones do not contain significant amounts of magnetic elements such as iron, and that the stones should gradually assemble in one place — which they don't. Some have suggested that the strong winds that blow through the area might move the rocks after the lakebed has become slick.
The most likely solution to the mystery involves a combination of wind, temperature and water. Although Racetrack Playa is a dry lakebed, it is not always dry; in fact, water collects on the surface after rainfall or when snow from surrounding peaks melts. Brian Dunning, a California researcher who discussed this mystery on his Skeptoid podcast, notes that when water is present and the temperature falls below freezing — as it sometimes does — a thin sheet of ice is created: "Solid ice, moving with the surface of the lake and with the inertia of a whole surrounding ice sheet, would have no trouble pushing a rock along the slick muddy floor... As the wind shifts and the flow ebbs, these ice floes drag the rocks across the slippery mud surface in zig-zagging paths, even moving heavy rocks and sometimes dragging some but washing past others nearby."
NASA researcher Ralph Lorenz became intrigued by the enigmatic stones while studying Death Valley weather conditions. He developed a tabletop experiment to show how the rocks might glide across the surface of the lakebed.
"I took a small rock and put it in a piece of Tupperware, and filled it with water so there was an inch of water with a bit of the rock sticking out," Lorenz told Smithsonian.com.
After putting the container in the freezer, Lorenz ended up with a small slab of ice with a rock embedded in it. By placing the ice-bound rock in a large tray of water with sand at the bottom, all he had to do was gently blow on the rock to get it to move across the water. And as the ice-embedded rock moved, it scraped a trail in the sand at the tray's bottom.
Shy stones
Though such explanations are plausible, they were very difficult to prove since no one had actually seen or recorded the stones' movements. Understandably, no one has volunteered to spend every minute of their lives — day and night for several years — enduring temperatures that can reach well above 100 degrees F (37 C), hoping to see a stone move. Furthermore, Racetrack Playa is almost three miles long and over a mile wide (4.8 by 1.6 kilometers). A person of course can't be everywhere at once, and would have to pick one or two rocks to closely and continually monitor just in case they happen to suddenly move. And can you imagine the frustration if someone spent two years watching a non-moving rock, only to later learn that several other rocks on another part of the lakebed had moved while they weren't watching?
Fortunately, the technology exists to investigate the mystery remotely. In 2013, a team of scientists using rocks with motion-activated GPS units and time-lapse photography captured the first video footage of the stones creeping across the desert floor. [Related: High-Tech Sleuthing Cracks Mystery of Death Valley's Moving Rocks]
It turns out that jagged plates of thin ice, resembling panels of broken glass, bulldoze the rocks across the flooded playa. Driven by gentle winds, the rocks seem to hydroplane atop the fluffy, wet mud. The scientists revealed their findings in the Aug. 27 issue of the journal PLOS One.
The mystery has not been solved completely, however. The video shows how smaller rocks move, but no one has ever seen the gigantic playa boulders budge an inch. Another process may be at work on the biggest rocks, according to Jim Norris, an engineer and member of the team.
"I know there are people who like the mystery of it and will probably be somewhat disappointed that we've solved it," Norris said. "It's a fascinating process, and in many ways I hope that there's more to be discovered. Never say never."
Mysterious Metallic Sound in the Mariana Trench Finally Identified
Mysterious Metallic Sound in the Mariana Trench Finally Identified
By Megan Gannon, Live Science Contributor
An otherworldly noise that was recorded near the Mariana Trench could be a never-before-heard whale call.
Dubbed the "Western Pacific Biotwang," this newly discovered call might be from a minke whale — a type of baleen whale — according to the researchers who documented the vocalization.
Regardless of what species it is, this whale has range: The call includes sounds that span frequencies that reach as low as 38 hertz and as high as 8,000 hertz. Humans can hear sounds between 20 and 20,000 Hz. [Listen to the New Whale Call from the Mariana Trench]
"It's very distinct, with all these crazy parts," Sharon Nieukirk, senior faculty research assistant in marine bioacoustics at Oregon State University, said in a statement. "The low-frequency moaning part is typical of baleen whales, and it's that kind of twangy sound that makes it really unique. We don't find many new baleen whale calls."

The call was recorded with autonomous seafaring robots, known as "passive acoustic ocean gliders," which can dive up to 3,280 feet (1,000 meters) below the surface. Scientists can send these devices out on solo missions to eavesdrop on whale conversations. Nieukirk and her colleagues collected their acoustic data in the fall of 2014 and the spring of 2015, in an area in the Pacific Ocean east of Guam around the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the ocean. [Video: Take a Tour of the Mariana Trench]
The twangy, five-part call, which lasts up to 3.5 seconds, was recorded regularly during both the fall and spring. The researchers hope that other scientists will identify the call in other data sets so that they can confirm the source. But in their description of the whale call in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, Nieukirk and her colleagues wrote that they suspect a minke whale is responsible for the new call.
Because of the call's complex structure, frequencies and metallic-sounding conclusion, the researchers think that it most closely resembles the regionally specific calls that are produced by a group of dwarf minke whales off the northeast coast of Australia. (Those calls sound a bit like "Star Wars" sound effects.) They added that there are several types of minke whales in the survey area, but not much is known about their behavior — especially their vocal behavior.
"We don't really know that much about minke whale distribution at low latitudes," Nieukirk said. "The species is the smallest of the baleen whales, doesn't spend much time at the surface, has an inconspicuous blow, and often lives in areas where high seas make sighting difficult. But they call frequently, making them good candidates for acoustic studies."
The call still needs to be translated. Most baleen whales use specific vocalizations for seasonal breeding and feeding, but this call — since it seems to occur all year — may have a complex function, the researchers said.
"If it's a mating call, why are we getting it year-round? That's a mystery," Nieukirk said. "We need to determine how often the call occurs in summer versus winter, and how widely this call is really distributed."
It wouldn't be the first time minke whales have puzzled scientists with their calls. In 2014, scientists solved a 50-year-old mystery when they figured out that the so-called "bio-duck" sound that was often recorded in the Southern Ocean was being produced by Antarctic minke whales.
CONTACTEES, SIGHTINGS AND THE CONSCIOUSNESS CONNECTION
CONTACT NETWORK HISTORY PROJECT
by J. Burkes MD 2016
CONTACTEES, SIGHTINGS AND THE CONSCIOUSNESS CONNECTION
The author’s personal comment: Twenty-four years ago I took a walk on the wild side. I joined a group that had the audacity to go out at night and try to co-create contact experiences with the intelligence associated with the so-called UFO phenomenon. To my surprise and initial delight we were immediately successful. During our first month of teamwork we had a number of sightings while in the field.
But stranger still was that this “Otherness That Experiencers Now Call ET” (TOTENCET) targeted us to have individual sightings under circumstances that were not associated with conducting “contact protocols.” One senior member of team reported receiving the following telepathic communication while viewing a large glowing orb flying above her driveway, “You wanted to see us; well here we are.”
SYNOPSIS: Contact groups attempt to interact with UFO intelligence under fieldwork conditions. The pattern of encounters experienced however also includes individual researchers having personal sightings of UFOs while not doing fieldwork. Three case reports of this phenomenon are described in synopsis form. The implications of this apparent consciousness link between contact groups and UFO intelligence are discussed.
INTRODUCTION UFO contact teams like the CE-5 Initiative, and the Peruvian based group called Rahma facilitate contact experiences with combined programs of psychic/ spiritual training and active fieldwork. These groups emphasize the importance of mental connections between contact workers and UFO intelligence.
I organized a contact team in 1992 and for over 5 years served as a Working Group Coordinator for Dr Steven Greer’s Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence. In 1998 I resigned from that position but continued how to work with Rama, and unaffiliated networks of contact activists.
HIGH STRANGENESS DEFINED
As a former Working Group Coordinator of the CE-5 Initiative in Los Angeles I had ample opportunities to observe unusual occurrences. According to official CSETI documents "High Strangeness" was defined as "The inexplicable effects and often synchronicity of events related to and occurring before, during and after various Close Encounters or UFO/Extraterrestrial Spacecraft sightings."
By definition one cannot explain the inexplicable, nevertheless one can endeavor to describe the inexplicable and in the process possibly gain insight into the mechanisms of contact.
INITIAL EXPECTATIONS WERE WAY OFF BASE
My initial expectation after becoming Working Group Coordinator in 1992 was that UFO sightings would occur as an exclusive function of fieldwork. I anticipated that as my team mastered the contact protocols, we would experience higher and higher levels of what Dr Greer labeled “CE-5s” and that this would occur in a stepwise fashion.
To my surprise however, as soon as our Working Group started to carry out field investigations, a number of individuals started reporting personal sightings of UFOs. The witnesses to these sightings were members of the team, or as in one case the physician wife of a LA CSETI researcher. In her case she became very interested in UFOs as the result of her daylight sighting of a metallic disc. (For confidentiality purposes, all researchers other than Dr. Burkes will be identified by pseudonyms.)
SIGHTINGS NOT DURING FIELDWORK BUT WHILE DRIVING HOME IN THE CAR
These events transpired while the observers were driving home. It is important to note that the first series of sightings occurred during the initial month following the CSETI workshop in August of 1992 that founded the Los Angeles CSETI Working Group. Just 2 days after Dr. Greer's demonstration of fieldwork techniques, the first personal sighting occurred
INDIVIDUAL SIGHTING 1, Sept. 1, 1992
Joseph Burkes MD:while driving home on the 405 Freeway South the Sepulveda Pass at approximately 11:30 PM I had a sighting of an anomalous nocturnal light. It appeared over the highway as a brilliant blue-green light that silently flew by the witness in a northerly direction. It had a slight oscillating movement. At its closest approach light was less than 500 feet away. There was no discernible superstructure associated with the object. This impressed me because of the considerable amount of background illumination from city lights.
The sighting occurred immediately after I had carried out a vigorous defense of CSETI's contact program to several prominent ufologists. In my opinion these senior researchers were not particularly supportive of the concept of proactively initiating contact.
Individual Sighting 2, September 23, 1992
At 2:30 PM a broad daylight sighting of a metallic disc occurred in Woodland Hills California. Dr. Burkes’ colleague Dr. Maria (a pseudonym) observed the UFO hovering two to three miles away over the Santa Monica Mountains. She was driving south towards her home when the sighting occurred. She is a partner in same medical group practice that I was in at that time. Maria is married to “Dr Daniel” who was an original member of my contact team.
Maria was accustomed to identifying conventional craft as the result of her husband's status as a private pilot. It was their custom to attend air shows and other aviation related events and as a result she was knowledgeable about various types of conventional aircraft. Maria reported feeling confident that the silently hovering disc, glittering in the bright afternoon sunshine was a” true unknown.” The object was approximately 30 feet in length. The sighting lasted about one minute.
Individual Sighting 3, September 24, 1992; While driving home at 9:30 PM after attending a two-hour meditation workshop, a 25-feet in diameter metallic globe-like craft was sighted hovering directly above the witness' home in Palos Verdes Peninsula.
Dotha was a founding member of the Los Angeles CE-5 Initiative team. An experienced sky watcher, she had no doubt that it was not a terrestrial craft. The sighting lasted approximately one minute; at its closest approach the silent object was less that 200 feet from the observer.
SIGHTINGS ARE CLUES TO DECIPHER A MYSTERY
As the months rolled by after these dramatic sightings, I started to muse over the details of my associates’ personal sightings. I looked for possible hidden meanings within the circumstances of the encounters that might contain some kind of message relating to the on-going contact work. Perhaps like a detective in a mystery novel, I kept mulling over the various aspects of the sightings. If those particulars were clues, then I was going to use them to solve the mystery as to what was going on within my contact team visa vie our relationship with flying saucer intelligence.
My hypothesis was that perhaps these consecutive sightings were not random events, that they might in fact be the product of conscious decisions by intelligent and technologically sophisticated extraterrestrial beings that staged the encounters for teaching purposes.
CONVENTIONAL WISDOM DOESN’T APPLY TO ALLEGED ALIENS
I wondered whether factors like the choice of individuals selected for the sightings, or perhaps even more minute factors might have special significance. Michael Lindemann, a prominent student of non-human intelligence, has cautioned ufologists to never assume that one can think like an alien. In other words we should not try to impose what passes as human “conventional wisdom” on beings that may have evolved on different star systems.
Such extraterrestrial civilizations would undoubtedly have entirely different cultures, different value systems, and different social organizations as compared to Earth. With such infinite possibilities, perhaps a technologically advanced civilization for purposes unknown to us might choose to communicate via outlandishly subtle means.
AMAZINGLY CONGRUENT CHARACTERISTICS
It should be remembered that approximately 10% of the US population claim to have had a sighting of a UFO. In terms of an individual’s lifetime of experiences however, a sighting is an exceedingly rare event for most people. The fact that these three individuals who knew each other had a sighting within a few weeks should diminish the odds that they were mere coincidences.
Even less likely to occur by chance is the fact that the circumstances of the sightings were highly congruent. The observers were all driving home and were alone in their vehicles. Even the direction of travel was the same; we were all going south when the encounters took place.
PASSIONATE DEFENSE OF PROACTIVELY SEEKING CONTACT.
In my sighting, I had just left a meeting after engaging in a heated polemic defending CSETI's program of human initiated interactions with what I believed at the time was an extraterrestrial intelligence. Present at the meeting was the “old guard” of UFOlogy. Prominent researcher Ann Druffel was there. She explained to me that as “ufologists” we should study other people’s sightings to determine if they are “anomalous” i.e. “true unknowns.”
In no uncertain terms I labeled her approach “old fashioned” and that contact groups like CSETI’s had “opened up a new era” in UFO research. As I left the meeting it was clear that I would never again be invited back to the prestigious “LA UFO Study Group.”
I interpreted my sighting just minutes after leaving the meeting as a message of support, not only for me personally, but also for the larger contact program that I had just so vigorously defended. The sighting gave me a big personal boost that helped sustain my enthusiasm for our project during the difficult months that followed. Considering the organizational and personal challenges that face any new contact team, I will gladly testify that leaders need all the support that they can get.
MEDITATION FACILITATES CONTACT
Concerning Dotha's close encounter with a luminescent globe like UFO, she had just left a meditation workshop. Contact protocols employed by contactee groups involve on-site thought projection methods. Usually this involves guided meditation. In preparation for thought projection, individuals in the team are expected to reach an “expanded state of consciousness” through meditation.
Dotha told me that she thought there was an association between her meditating in the class and her subsequent sighting. If the non-human intelligence responsible for the flying saucer phenomenon were attempting to send my team a message concerning the importance of advanced meditation techniques, what better way to do so than to stage a close encounter just moments after a prolonged meditation session by an experienced practitioner.
Thus two of the three sightings described occurred immediately after the witnesses were involved in activities integral to contact work.
WHY DID DR. MARIA HAVE A SIGHTING?
The most intriguing aspect of this series was the question why was Dr. Maria singled out for a sighting. Although her interest in UFOs soared after seeing the metallic disc, prior to the event her contact with the UFO phenomenon was indirect. It was her husband Dr. Daniel who was the contact activist in the family.
During the autumn months of 1992 our team frequently convened at Maria and Daniel's house for our business meetings. Meditation is not an easy chore for all researchers; both Daniel and I were both having considerable difficulty meditating. We were restless, as many are, when one first attempts to still the mind. Daniel was not able to follow the recommendation of meditating daily.
Maria on the other hand was far more open to meditation practice. It was not until several months later, in December of 1992 that she was to undergo formal contact network training by Dr Greer, and as a result she was officially not part of the Working Group when we first held meetings at her home.
I was quite perplexed as to why she had received a sighting? Dotha and I were active and official members of the team, why was Maria, a non-member, selected for such a dramatic daylight sighting of a metallic disk?
The answer came to me one night as we conducted our business meeting at Maria and Daniel's home. My beeper rang and I had to call the hospital. Maria was in the family room practicing on her harp. An accomplished amateur, she often gave recitals. I asked Daniel where I could pick up a phone away from the meeting. Daniel suggested that I take the call in the family room.
"No," I replied, "I don't want to disturb Maria."
Daniel reassured me by saying, "Don't worry. She practices at least an hour a day. When she's playing her music she's in a total trance."
It was then that it hit me! That was the clue that I had been looking for. Maria although not yet part of the Working Group, was still able to access consciousness in its most unbounded form while she was practicing the harp. In that relaxed state of being carried away by the divine music that she was creating, a trance like state similar to deep meditation was achieved. Her meditation equivalent was her music!
It seemed to me this was possibly part of the message that I was supposed to learn from her sighting. If my hunch was correct, I was impressed by its subtlety.
Personal sightings were clearly linked, not only in time, but also coincided in a variety of other important details, thus indicating that they are not random events. In their totality the patterns of personal interactions confirm the proposition that contact groups have entered into a special collaborative relationship with what in my opinion might well be an extraterrestrial intelligence.
CONCLUSION
I believe that these sightings are part of a much broader range of experiences that indicate the virtuoso psychic technology of what I like to call, This Otherness That Experiencers Now Call ET, the so-called aliens. They, who or whatever “they” ultimately turn out to be, were able to track the three of us and choose the time and place of what were clearly in my view staged events. If “they” could do that with us perhaps there is no such thing as a “random UFO sighting.” I am suggesting that the millions of people that report UFO sightings are telepathically linked to “this otherness.” For me the implications of this proposition are awe-inspiring for the following reasons
The Earth’s population is over 7 billion at this time. If the prevalence rate of a UFO sighting is 10 percent, this suggests that hundreds of millions of people may have a consciousness link with the UFO intelligence by virtue of their having a sighting. Understandably such individuals often have an increased interest in the subject of flying saucers. Under the right circumstances, for example if they had additional sightings or were in an area where a UFO wave had occurred, they then might join the growing number of people that are proactively seeking interactions with UFO intelligence. As one that has promoted human empowered contact with flying saucer intelligence for over two decades, I find this possibility very encouraging.

UFO expert Max Spiers 'vomited black fluid' before his death, inquest hears
UFO expert Max Spiers 'vomited black fluid' before his death, inquest hears
Max Spiers died in Warsaw in July this year. CREDIT: MAXSPIERS.COM
The death earlier this year of Max Spiers, a British Ufologist, has continued to prompt intense speculation among conspiracy theorists, as an inquest in Kent this week heard he "vomited two litres of black fluid" shortly before he died.
Spiers, 39, originally from Canterbury, was found dead at an friend's apartment in Warsaw in July.
Local authorities initially stated he had died from natural causes – but his mother Vanessa Bates approached the media to express doubts over the verdict.
As an inquest into Mr Spiers' death opened in Canterbury last Monday, Mrs Bates told reporters: “It’s been a long time coming, but I’m just relieved that at last something is happening and there is a proper investigation and inquest."
In a statement, coroner’s investigations officer Caroline O’Donnell told the inquest: “Mr Spiers became ill with a high temperature and was weak."

According to the Kentish Gazette, the following day Mr Spiers vomited two litres of black fluid.
“The friend called a doctor who attempted resuscitation before pronouncing him dead.”
A few days before his death Mr Spiers had sent his mother a text message saying: “If anything happens to me, investigate.”
Mrs Bates, an English teacher, said in October: "[Max] was making a name for himself in the world of conspiracy theorists and had been invited to speak at a conference in Poland in July.
"He was staying with a woman who he had not known for long and she told me how she found him dead on the sofa.
"But I think Max had been digging in some dark places and I fear that somebody wanted him dead."
Coroner Alan Blunsdon told the inquest he was waiting to receive a report from Polish authorities, and that he hopes to have Mr Spiers’ laptop and mobile phone forensically analysed.
The inquest has been adjourned until February 22.
Earlier this year author and journalist Nick Pope, who investigated the UFO phenomenon for the Ministry of Defence in the early Nineties, said on Twitter: “The death of Max Spiers was a tragedy, but having run the UK Government's UFO project I promise we don't go around killing UFO researchers.”
Its motive may be similar to the US government, who he said took ten years to admit that the spate of diamond UFO sightings were down to a trial of high-tech steal fighter jets.
Mr Robinson told Daily Star Online: "The American and British government are happy to let us believe [sightings] are UFOs when it’s just their own new tech."
“It makes me wonder, what the hell is going on here?”
Malcolm Robinson
Mr Robinson added that 3% of unexplained sightings are down to black budget technology.
The reported existence of a "black budget", or "black operations budget", first emerged in the US after the defence department began reporting huge accounting holes at the end of each financial year.
Wild claims suggest that the holes proved that taxpayer money was being siphoned off for top secret military technology.
Truth-seekers claimed the new technology would never be allowed to appear on finance receipts or the balance sheet, which is publicly available.

PARANORMAL EXPERT: Mr Malcolm Robinson has been investigating UFO sightings in the UK
The government never confirmed or denied its existence.
But in May this year a senior US Government insider revealed that "black programmes" have played a part in a widespread “UFO cover-up” which Hillary Clinton promised to expose had she not lost her dream of becoming President of United States to The Donald earlier this month.
It was this so-called black budget that was allegedly used to pay for the stealth jets that sparked a huge alien conspiracy in the 1950s.

UFO: Government agents were accused of covering up a Rendlesham Forest incident
Years later, the CIA later admitted that half of the UFO reports were a U2 spy plane over Roswell.
Similarly, Mr Robinson believes that "the governments may want us to believe that what we are seeing in the sky is alien, and it’s not."
The Ministry of Defence previously funded a UFO desk, during a period of alien sightings in Bonnybridge in Scotland, Warminster in Wiltshire and RAF base Rendlesham Forest.
But it was shut in 2009.
Its remaining UFO files set to be released this year were pushed back to 2017.

The dad-of-four, who lives in Southampton, said: "As I went back into the house to look at the footage, within two minutes the helicopter was above the house so I ran back outside with the camcorder and the chopper was on the same path as the object in the sky.
“Notice in the video the helicopter is turning as if looking for something."

The helicopter is turning as if looking for something
Alien conspiracy theorists suggest the helicopters are part of a covert military force engaged in a secret UFO monitoring program - the basis of the money-spinning Will Smith Men In Black movies.
Declassified FBI files from the 1960s revealed how Colorado ranchers reported a jet-black aircraft during a wave of strange cattle mutilation cases.
He said: "It's most certainly not a balloon because the wind would have made it act like a balloon and gave it more of a wobble or speed it up or made it move erratically.
"There was no movements like that at all."

Black helicopters have been noticed in several UFO sightings
He added: "On closer inspection on the PC I noticed that zooming into the object it looks like it has a hole in the centre.
"The same day a friend told me he had also taken a closer look at the video and found strange things hiding in the clouds."

Strange burning crater after 'deep boom' from the sky sparks claims UFO crash landed on Earth
Strange burning crater after 'deep boom' from the sky sparks claims UFO crash landed on Earth
The amazing footage shows the large, smouldering hole surrounded by singed ground in Fugu County, north-eastern China
BY MARC WALKER
Flames lick a scorched crater after a strange object was spotted falling to Earth - sparking claims it was a UFO crash.
The amazing footage shows the large, smouldering hole surrounded by singed ground in Fugu County in north-eastern China, reports People's Daily Online.
A local, only identified as Zhang, told how he heard a deep boom coming from the sky before an object plummeted through the clouds and smashed into the earth.
He said it was moving extremely fast as it plunged from the heavens towards the mountain range.

Zhang added: "It made a loud bang when it hit the ground.
"Then it started burning. The dry grass nearby was quickly set aflame."
Other villagers raced to the 'crash site' and were amazed to see a the huge crater but oddly it appeared to be empty.
The bizarre incident triggered a wave of speculation across the globe as to what was behind the phenomenon(Photo: Copyright unknown)
The bizarre incident triggered a wave of speculation across the globe as to what was behind the phenomenon.
UFO enthusiasts insist there have been 10 'confirmed' alien crash sites, including one in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk.
The video was posted on QQ.com this week and is thought to have been filmed by an eye-witness.

GOLD DIGGERS FOUND THIS STRANGE MUMMY INSIDE SAN PEDRO MOUNTAINS BACK IN 1934
GOLD DIGGERS FOUND THIS STRANGE MUMMY INSIDE SAN PEDRO MOUNTAINS BACK IN 1934
In June 1934, two gold prospectors were blasting for gold in the San Pedro Mountains of Wyoming when they discovered a small cavern which had been concealed by the deep rock. After exploring the tiny man-made cavern they made a highly unusual discovery – the well-preserved mummified remains of a tiny human being, of approximately six and a half inches in height, sitting cross-legged on the floor.
The body was encased in a gelatinous, preserving substance that meant that the body was perfectly preserved as it had been in life. The body had a flattened nose, full set of teeth and fingernails and appeared to be an old man.
THE MYSTERY OF PEDRO, THE TINY HUMANOID
What was considered particularly interesting about this find was that local Native Americans had a great deal of folklore about little spirits or tiny people in the region. These beings, they said, had magical powers which were ordinarily related to healing but were occasionally prone to bellicosity and sometimes viciously attacked the Native American people with poisoned arrows.
While many immediately presumed that the discovery was an elaborate hoax, many scientists came to the area with a desire to examine the tiny creature (who was quickly nicknamed ‘Pedro’) more thoroughly. In the years that followed, Pedro was subject to some tested. Some of the scientists came to the conclusion that in life he had been a baby who had died shortly after birth. Others suggested that he was an adult, aged between sixteen and sixty-five years old. They said that he could not have been a new born baby because of his full set of extraordinarily sharp teeth and the presence of what appeared to be raw meat in his stomach. Disturbingly, x-rays also revealed that it was likely that Pedro had suffered a violent death. Many of his bones were broken, and there was considerable damage to his spine and skull.
All of these discoveries seemed to raise more questions than they answered and the question of Pedro’s providence was a matter of huge controversy. Some people maintained that he was a human being, others suggested that he was a member of the separate species alluded to in Native American folklore. Others suggested that he could be an extra-terrestrial being of some kind.
Tragically, it appears as though this question may never be answered as Pedro’s body has been missing for some years. His body was displayed in a series of sideshows in the 1940s before being purchased by a collector named Ivan Goodman towards the end of the decade. When Goodman passed away in 1950, he bequeathed them to man called Leonard Waller. Since Waller took ownership of the mysterious body, the trail has gone cold.
EXPOSED! GLOBAL ELITES' AND THEIR SECRET TRIPS TO ANTARCTICA
EXPOSED! GLOBAL ELITES' AND THEIR SECRET TRIPS TO ANTARCTICA
Antarctica, a mysterious, icy, no man's land. Throughout history, mankind has led to believe that the continent holds no secrets. Evidently, new controversial evidence and research have proven Antarctica to be the base of a secret global cabal, holding immense power.
THE SECRETIVE PLOT OF ANTARCTICA
Whistleblowers have revealed that Antarctica hosts underground facilities belonging to a powerful government-extraterrestrial species alliance, involving the US, Russia, China and even aliens. The name of the alliance is the Interplanetary Corporate Conglomerate (ICC), with many pointing out that its only one of the five major cabals of Earth.
History of the true exploitation of Antarctica began during the Third Reich when the Nazis began exploration as well as construction of a massive network of bases and linking tunnels in the 1930s. According to renowned conspiracy theorist Michael Salla, the expansion lasted well into the 1950s, with Antarctica being a haven for the Nazi elite fleeing the end of the Second World War. Fast forward to the modern age, Antarctica has grown into a special continent where the global elite holds powerful meetings and creation of secret space programs. Not many details are known about these programs, though whatever they are, the chilling effects on mankind it holds is enough to fuel many conspiracy theories on their contents.
HOW MUCH POWER IS HELD IN ANTARCTICA?
Other theorists believe that the region is also headquarters of an elite alliance that is the global NWO-Illuminati of the Fourth Reich. The group, also known to be involved with secretive space exploitation, are said to be present (even in the South Americas) thanks to its links with the US government. The partnership has been going on since Operation Paper Clip when many top German scientists went to work for the US after Germany's loss in the Second World War.
A major concern for these secret groups being holed up in the continent is the involvement of extraterrestrial beings. Many whistleblowers have expressed theories that these mysterious beings are only exploiting the greed of the global elite to only further their technology for total world domination. Whether it may be humans or aliens, the fact that there exist secret programs in a barren wasteland like Antarctica proves that the Earth holds many secrets which have yet to be uncovered. Only time will tell if mankind will be fall to the rulings of these groups.
SHOCKING! BIZARRE UFO CRASHED IN CHINA LEAVING MYSTERIOUS DEBRIS BEHIND!
SHOCKING! BIZARRE UFO CRASHED IN CHINA LEAVING MYSTERIOUS DEBRIS BEHIND!
People claim to witness strange UFO sightings every so often which leaves us readers with a vague idea of it's authenticity.
Now, some individuals can actually snap some pictures of these strange unidentified flying objects, some being completely fake while others being real but sometimes misunderstood and unrelated to the UFO phenomenon (i.e., birds caught on flight, balloons or other mundane things).
Then there's the actual footage showing the phenomenom in action, with all those strange lights twinkling and changing colors, giving us a sense o truth behind all this ET conspiracy. Again, some videos can be faked with good looking CGI or other visual effects.
But then there's the most uncommon UFO contact, which is an UFO crash. There have been around 10 UFO crash accounts reported throughout the years, most notably the Roswell UFO crash in 1947.
Recently in a rural region in China, a bizarre object feel from the sky creating a crater with debris scattering all around the area. The debris is very peculiar and has been sent for investigation.
Wetenschappers hebben ontdekt dat er onder het oppervlak van onze maan een heel stelsel van stabiele grotten verborgen moet zitten en dat zou mogelijkheden kunnen bieden als we ooit een permanente ruimtebasis op de maan zouden willen openen.
Het onderzoek in kwestie werd geleid door planetair geofysicus Dave Blair van de Purdue University in West Lafayette in Indiana. Het team analyseerde data van een aantal ruimtetuigen die rond onze maan cirkelen en onder meer het oppervlakte van het hemellichaam in kaart brengen.
Wetenschappers hadden eerder al ontdekt dat er kleine afwijkingen waren in de zwaartekracht die konden wijzen op de aanwezigheid van een grottenstelsel onder het maanoppervlak met een breedte van ettelijke kilometers en dat werd in het nieuwe onderzoek verder uitgespit. Dat stelt nu dat de grotten een goede stabiliteit hebben tot een breedte van maar liefst vijf kilometer en als ze een 'dak' hebben van amper twee meter dik. En dat zou mogelijkheden bieden voor toekomstige basissen op de maan. De grotten zouden kolonisten onder meer kunnen beschermen tegen extreme temperaturen, straling uit de ruimte en meteorietinslagen.
De grotten zouden net als gelijksoortige grotten op aarde - in Hawaï en IJsland - ontstaan zijn door het opdrogen van ondergrondse rivieren van gesmolten gesteente of lava, die zo een cilindervormige ruimte achter lieten. Maar waar die op aarde hooguit 30 meter breed zijn, zouden die op de maan zich in de breedte uitstrekken over ettelijke kilometers.
Wetenschappers hebben 'ijsvulkanen' - kraters met bevroren water op de bodem - ontdekt op Ceres. Dit is de grootste dwergplaneet in de asteroïdengordel tussen Mars en Jupiter. Waarom dat zo baanbrekend is? De ontdekking van water op één van de donkerste plekken in ons zonnestelsel kan belangrijke informatie leveren voor het bouwen van kolonies in de ruimte.
Nieuwe beelden van NASA genomen vanop het ruimteschip Dawn heeft onthuld dat er bevroren water vastzit in enkele van de kraters op delen van de dwergplaneet waar de zon nooit schijnt. Ceres is het grootste lichaam in de asteroïdengordel, daarom zijn wetenschappers er zo door geïntrigeerd. Ze hebben het planetair lichaam al uitgebreid vanop aarde bestudeerd met telescopen en andere instrumenten, maar de plek kreeg nooit bezoek van een ruimtetuig tot Dawn er neerstreek in 2015.
Lijkt op lava Het team van planetair wetenschapper Thomas Platz heeft locaties van eeuwige schaduw bij meer dan 600 kraters op Ceres ontdekt, tien van hen bevatten waterijs. De camera's op het ruimtetuig hebben onthuld dat de bodem van de kraters op Ceres bedekt zijn met een stromend materiaal dat gelijkaardig is aan lava op aarde. Maar het materiaal is minder dik dan vergelijkbare formaties ergens anders in het zonnestelsel, aldus wetenschapper Ralf Jaumann van het onderzoeksteam van Dawn. En het heeft een lichtblauwe kleur.
Hoe komt dat ijswater daar? Omdat een berg op Ceres dezelfde kleur heeft en die zou gevormd zijn door erupties van ijs gemengd met modder, vermoeden Jaumann en zijn collega's dat het stromende materiaal een mengeling van ijs, modder en zouten is die uitbarsten aan zwakke punten in het oppervlak van Ceres, wanneer gesteente uit de ruimte of andere objecten de dwergplaneet raken. Of het stromende materiaal kan het resultaat zijn van een object dat erg hard met Ceres botste, die impact kan namelijk zo groot zijn dat het terrein eronder smelt.
Wetenschapster Jennifer Scully was niet betrokken bij het onderzoek, maar zegt dat de ontdekkingen erg betrouwbaar zijn. "In geologische termen zijn de stromingen op Ceres jong, dit toont aan dat Ceres geen statische plek is, maar een dwergplaneet waar dingen nog evolueren."
Koud en donker Ceres is het derde planetaire lichaam, na de maan en Mercurius, waar wetenschappers bevroren water ontdekten. Op deze plekken is het ongeveer -200 graden Celsius, één van de koudste en donkerste plekken in ons zonnestelsel. Ralf Jaumann zegt compleet verrast te zijn door deze ontdekking.
Maandorp Wetenschappers willen meer te weten komen over het waterijs op Ceres en zo ook informatie inwinnen over water op de maan en andere sterrenlichamen zonder atmosfeer. Ze hopen dat deze onthullingen kunnen helpen om een permanente basis voor de mens op de maan te creëren.
Thomas Platz legt de toekomstplannen uit: "We hopen dat door het waterijs op Ceres te bestuderen, we meer kunnen leren over ijs dichterbij huis, de maan bijvoorbeeld. Deze informatie zou mogelijk kunnen maken dat de mensheid ooit daar zal kunnen leven." Wetenschappers hopen een maandorp te bouwen met de middelen die daar voorhanden zijn: metalen, mineralen en waterijs. Toegang tot water is essentieel voor de bewoners. De kans op een menselijke nederzetting op de maan neemt aanzienlijk toe als er water aanwezig is."
Het Europees Ruimte Agentschap heeft onlangs aangekondigd dat het de maan wil koloniseren tegen 2030.
Een team van onderzoekers, waaronder ook Philippe Claeys van de Vrije Universiteit Brussel, heeft bij recente boringen in de Golf van Mexico het binnengebergte ontdekt van de Chixculub-krater. Het is de eerste keer dat zo'n binnenring van rotsige bergtoppen, een peak ring, gevonden wordt op aarde.
Afgelopen april en mei trok een internationaal team van wetenschappers naar de Golf van Mexico om voor het eerst offshore-boringen te doen. Om hun monsters te verzamelen reikten ze 506 tot 1335 meter onder de zeebodem en daar vonden ze het bewijs van het bestaan van een peak ring in de Chixculub-krater.
De impact van de meteoriet die 65 miljoen jaar geleden naar schatting 75 procent van alle diersoorten, waaronder vooral dinosauriërs, wegvaagde was zo hard dat tot op een diepte van tien kilometer rotsmateriaal naar beneden en daarna zijwaarts gedrukt werd. Vervolgens stroomde het gebroken en gesmolten materiaal terug richting het oppervlak om uiteindelijk te stollen en de peak ring te vormen.
Een van de belangrijkste ontdekkingen is dat het rotsmateriaal door de inslag poreuzer en lichter werd achtergelaten dan door de modellen werd voorspeld.
Op andere planeten in het zonnestelsel worden grote kraters wel vaker gekarakteriseerd door een peak ring.
"Botsingen vormen het meest voorkomende geologische proces in het zonnestelsel. Deze unieke studie op aarde helpt ons te begrijpen hoe dit kratervormende proces het oppervlak van andere hemellichamen heeft vormgegeven", zegt Philippe Claeys van de VUB.
Op de planeet Mars is voor het eerst het scheikundig element boor of borium aangetroffen, zo heeft allesoversterrenkunde.nl gemeld. De aanwezigheid van dit semi-metaal kan erop wijzen dat er op het hemellicaam langdurig "voor leven geschikt" grondwater is geweest.
De ontdekking was het werk van de Amerikaanse robotjeep Curiosity in de Gale-krater. Miljarden jaren geleden stond die (deels) onder water, luidt het.
Het boor is aangetroffen in aders van calciumsulfaatmineralen. Op Aarde ontstaan zulke boorafzettingen op plaatsen waar veel grondwater is verdampt. Hoe dat op de Rode Planeet precies is gebeurd, is nog onduidelijk.
Het is volgens de website denkbaar dat het water van het voormalige Gale-meer boor bevatte, dat uiteindelijk terechtkwam in de kleiafzettingen op de bodem. Vervolgens droogde het meer op en ontstonden er barsten in het onderliggende grondgesteente. Hierdoor kon grondwater in contact komen met de kleiafzettingen en kwam het borium, samen met calciumsulfaat, in de barsten terecht.
Een andere mogelijkheid is dat het boor, samen met allerlei zouten, op de bodem van het meer achterbleef toen dit opdroogde. Hierdoorzou een boorrijke laag zijn ontstaan op een niveau dat nog niet door Curiosity is bereikt. Grondwater zou deze laag later hebben opgelost, waarna het boor en de zouten in de barsten van het grondgesteente terechtkwamen.
Volgens het Los Alamos National Laboratory zou het grondwater 0 tot 60 graden warm zijn geweest en een ph van neutraal tot alkaline hebben. Het komt aldus leven ten goede.
