Boeing Is Developing Laser Pods for U.S. Fighter Jets
Boeing Is Developing Laser Pods for U.S. Fighter Jets
USAF
IN BRIEF
Boeing has won a $90-million contract to research, develop, and deliver a laser pod for the U.S. Air Force over the course of the next five years.
High-energy lasers are ideal for defense as they can destroy missiles before they are close enough to cause any damage to people or structures.
LASER WEAPONS IN PROGRESS
The U.S. Air Force has granted aerospace company Boeinga $90-million contract to research, develop, and deliver a laser pod by December 15, 2021. That pod is likely the Self-Protect High Energy Laser Demonstrator (SHiELD), which would be integrated into the U.S. Air Force’s fourth-generation fighter fleet.
Development of high-energy lasers as weapons kicked off in 1996 when U.S. and Israeli contractors led by global security company Northrop Grumman teamed up to develop Tactical High Energy Lasers (THELs), and the technology has been progressing since.
Boeing makes sense as a partner for the military in the SHiELD project as it is one of the organizations leading that innovation. Its Directed Energy Systems arm is dedicated to high-energy laser research and development, and in 2014, they designed the High Energy Laser Mobile Demonstrator (HEL-MD), a defense aid that uses a high-energy laser to track, target, and destroy objects even when they’re traveling at high speeds.
LONG-RANGE DEFENSE AGAINST MISSILES…AND ASTEROIDS?
Unfortunately, self-destruction is one of the biggest threats to the human species. As overall technology progresses, warfare technologies advance with it. Using high-energy lasers to destroy oncoming threats offers a highly advantageous benefit: distance. The military can obliterate a missile, for example, before it gets close enough to inflict any damage to people or vehicles. The solution is also a low-cost, low-risk alternative to using fighter planes to combat threats.
Based on the demonstrations of these laser pods, it’s not hard to imagine that similar technology may be the answer if we’re ever faced with an impending comet collision doomsday. It’s been a common theme in video games, and in fact, a paper authored by a team led by Jonathan Campbell of NASA’s Advanced Space Flights Projects in 2002 suggested exactly that: a laser-based defense.

As part of a study called the Small Magellanic Cloud Investigation of Dust and Gas Evolution, astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have captured an image of two glowing hydrogen nebulae in the Milky Way’s dwarf satellite galaxy. The image, captured using Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), show the two “festive” looking nebulae, located so close to each other that they are referred to by one collective name — NGC 248.
The glowing red appearance of NGC 248 is most likely the result of intense radiation of its central stars heating up hydrogen in their surroundings. Scientists believe that the Small Magellanic Cloud, located roughly 200,000 light-years from Earth, contains many such glowing hydrogen nebulae, and that studying these can help better understand the birth and evolution of stars in galaxies.
“Astronomers are using Hubble to probe the Milky Way satellite to understand how dust is different in galaxies that have a far lower supply of heavy elements needed to create dust,” NASA said in a statement accompanying the image. “The Small Magellanic Cloud has between a fifth and a tenth of the amount of heavy elements that the Milky Way does. Because it is so close, astronomers can study its dust in great detail, and learn about what dust was like earlier in the history of the universe.”
The Hubble Space Telescope was launched aboard NASA’s space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. Since then, it has not only captured photos of an unimaginable number of truly spectacular nebulae and galaxies, it has also peered back over 13 billion years to look at our cosmos in its infancy, giving us, as NASA aptly put in an earlier statement, “a front row seat to the awe inspiring universe we live in.”
Most recently, Hubble snapped an image of the IC 5201 — a barred spiral galaxy over 40 million light-years from Earth in the direction of the constellation Grus. The image, which reveals a bar of stars slicing through the center of IC 5201 — a feature visible in two-thirds of all spiral galaxies in the observable universe — was also captured using the ACS.
Bizarre Antimatter Emits Same Light As Regular Matter
Bizarre Antimatter Emits Same Light As Regular Matter
By Charles Q. Choi, Live Science Contributor
One of the big questions lingering about our universe is why there is so much more matter than antimatter.

For the first time, physicists have shown that atoms of antimatter appear to give off the same kind of light that atoms of regular matter do when illuminated with lasers, a new study finds.
More precise measurements of this emitted light could unearth clues that might finally help solve the mystery of why there is so much less antimatter than normal matter in the universe, researchers say.
For every particle of normal matter, there is an antimatter counterpart with the same mass but the opposite electrical charge. The antiparticles of the electron and proton, for instance, are the positron and antiproton, respectively.
When a particle meets its antiparticle, they annihilate each other, giving off a burst of energy. A gram of antimatter annihilating a gram of matter would release about twice the energy as the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. (You don't have to worry about antimatter bombs popping up anytime soon; researchers are very far from creating anywhere near a gram of antimatter.)
Scientists would like to learn more about antimatter to see if it behaves differently from matter in a way that could help solve the puzzle of why the universe has so little antimatter.
One key set of experiments would involve shining lasers on antimatter atoms, which can absorb and emit light much like atoms of regular matter. If antihydrogen atoms emitted a different spectrum of light than hydrogen atoms, such spectral differences could yield insights on other ways matter and antimatter differ, the researchers said.
Now, for the first time, scientists have used lasers to carry out a spectral analysis of antihydrogen atoms.
"I like to call this the Holy Grail of antimatter physics,"said study co-author Jeffrey Hangst, a physicist at Aarhus University in Denmark. "I've been working for more than 20 years to make this possible, and this project has finally come together after many difficult steps."
The researchers experimented with antihydrogen, which is the simplest atom of antimatter, just as hydrogen is the simplest atom of regular matter. Antihydrogen atoms each consist of one antiproton and one positron.
Creating enough antimatter for researchers to examine has proven highly challenging. To create antihydrogen atoms, the researchers mixed clouds of about 90,000 antiprotons with clouds of about 1.6 million positrons (or antielectrons), yielding about 25,000 antihydrogen atoms per attempt using the ALPHA-2 apparatus, which is an antimatter generation and trapping system, at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Switzerland.
Chris Ørum and Steven Armstrong Jones work on the laser ALPHA experiment to find out the properties of light emitted by antihydrogen.

After the researchers create the antihydrogen atoms, "you have to hold on to them, and that's very difficult," Hangst told Live Science. Antihydrogen is electrically neutral, which means that it cannot be held in place using electric fields, "and you have to keep it away from matter, so it has to be kept in high vacuum," he said. In addition, antimatter is best kept at temperatures close to absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit, or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius), so it is slow-moving and easier to hold on to than antihydrogen atoms.
Then, they shone a laser on the antihydrogen, which caused the atoms to give off light. The scientists then measured the spectrum of light that antihydrogen gave off with a precision of about a few parts in 10^10 — that is, a 1 with 10 zeroes behind it. In comparison, researchers can currently measure these properties of hydrogen to a precision of a few parts in 10^15. "We want to measure antihydrogen with the same precision as hydrogen, and we see no reason why we can't do that in the future," Hangst said.
Currently the spectrums of light from hydrogen and antihydrogen look alike.
However, measuring antihydrogen with greater precision might ultimately reveal differences between matter and antimatter that could solve the mystery of the missing antimatter and lead to revolutionary changes in the Standard Model. "This is really game-changing work," Hangst said.
The scientists detailed their findings online Dec. 19 in the journal Nature.
UFO reported hovering over Florida residential neighborhood
UFO reported hovering over Florida residential neighborhood
A Florida witness at Gainesville reported “a very large, black triangle” UFO hovering over a residential area, according to testimony in Case 80933 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was returning home from a family dinner on December 11, 2016, when the object was seen hovering about 500 feet over nearby homes.
“It had large white, solid lights on each of the three corners of the craft and a pulsating red light on what appeared to be the rear,” the witness stated. “We could actually see framework or something on the side facing us, which indicted it wasn’t a smooth surface, but rather a metallic structure.”

The witness then drove north into the subdivision while watching the object.
“It made a turn toward the northeast and, after a few seconds without making a sound, it ascended to a tiny point in the sky in an instant. At the moment it took off into the sky, the sky seemed to bend around the lights of the craft. Before, during and after the sighting we could see normal aircraft in the sky, as there is a close-by small, commercial airport. I cannot imagine no one else, particularly pilots, didn’t see this craft. It was enormous.”
The low flying UFO quickly moved away until it was a tiny point in the sky. Pictured: Gainesville, FL.

Gainesville is the county seat and largest city in Alachua County, Florida, population 127,488. Florida MUFON Field Investigator Carl Paulson investigated and closed this case as an Unknown.

Hillary Clinton’s seemingly assured rise to the height of American power veered off track for a number of regrettable reasons, though the FBI’s late and ultimately unfounded revival of her esoteric email scandal was arguably the coup de grâce. It’s ironic, then, that an investigation intended to expose state secrets may have denied the American people their chance at one of the greatest acts of government transparency in history.
Viewers of Jimmy Kimmel Live! got a glimpse of what might have been last March, when Clinton was unexpectedly candid during an otherwise tightly scripted presidential campaign. “I would like us to go into those files and hopefully make as much of that public as possible,” she said. “If there’s nothing there, let’s tell people there’s nothing there. If there is something there, unless it’s a threat to national security, I think we ought to share it with the public.”
Clinton was talking about how, as leader of the free world, she would try to gain access to and publicize top-secret government information about UFOs—a family obsession that stretches back to her husband’s time in office, when The X-Files was part of Fox’s Friday-night lineup, wacky tabloids flanked supermarket checkout lanes and didn’t dare endorse presidential candidates, and Art Bell’s late-night radio show, Coast to Coast AM, spooked listeners with supposedly true stories about little green men.
Back in 1995, the Clinton administration received an invitation to meet with billionaire Laurance S. Rockefeller at his Wyoming ranch. An environmental activist and founder of the American Conservation Association, Rockefeller was also a pioneer of venture capitalism—the first to front seed money to Apple. But, that day, his business with the president had to do with one of his more idiosyncratic passions: aliens. He reportedly provided President Clinton with documents containing evidence of a wide-ranging government conspiracy to keep information regarding unexplained aerial phenomenon hidden from the public. What was actually said during that private retreat remains a mystery, though it produced an official photo that has left conspiracy theorists salivating for decades.
At first glance, the image is innocuous: Rockefeller and Hillary Clinton are bedecked in amusingly ranch-appropriate gear—he in a charming straw hat, she in hiking boots and a sweatshirt. Along with her jacket, Clinton carries a book, which is angled against her body, obstructing the title. When conspiracy theorists figured out it was Are We Alone?: Philosophical Implications of the Discovery of Extraterrestrial Life by physicist Paul Davies, they turned the photo into an icon worthy of preservation in the Clinton Presidential Library and Museum. Davies’ tome is an acclaimed bestseller that’s essentially a guide explaining how the discovery of alien life would reshape everything from religion to science to, yes, politics. And unlike the infamous 1992 cover of the Weekly World News, which famously depicted Bill shaking hands with a cone-handed companion, Davies’ work is entirely grounded in reality.
While this topic might appear to be quarantined to the tin foil-hat-wearing fringe, there may be no bigger advocate for UFO file disclosure than John Podesta, one of Washington, D.C.’s preeminent power players. The founder of the Center for American Progress, Podesta served as the chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, after stints as counselor to President Barack Obama and chief of staff to President Bill Clinton. Still an influential voice in politics and policy, Podesta also happens to be openly obsessed with Area 51, the 1947 Roswell, New Mexico, crash site of either a spaceship or weather balloon, depending on who you ask.
Podesta’s die-hard enthusiasm led to an appearance on a SyFy channel special proposing that aliens are not only real, but that they visit Earth regularly. He’s also a huge fan of The X-Files, who hosted weekly watch parties in the first Clinton White House and celebrating his 50th birthday with an X-Files theme. His stance on unsealing those files is deadly serious: In 2002, he took part in a press conference organized by the Coalition for Freedom of Information at which he declared, “It is time for the government to declassify records that are more than 25 years old and to provide scientists with data that will assist in determining the real nature of this phenomenon." The day he left Obama’s White House in February 2015, his first public statement was a tweet with a crucial hashtag: “Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files. #thetruthisstilloutthere cc: @NYTimesDowd.”
Podesta’s comments clarify why the declassification of decades-old documents matters right now. “It would immediately create the biggest political legacy in history,” says Stephen Bassett, who rose to both fame and skepticism in the 1990s as Washington, D.C.’s first (and only) registered lobbyist focused exclusively on pressuring the government to disclose classified UFO documents.
Such a move would be one of those great presidential moments, akin to the space race that transformed President Kennedy into a historically significant leader.
Such a move would be one of those great presidential moments, according to Bassett, akin to the space race with the Soviet Union that transformed President Kennedy into a historically significant leader. The American public’s frustration with unbreakable walls of government secrecy is real and urgent, inspiring everything from the movie JFK to the birther movement. Despite their reputations for cloak-and-dagger methods, both Bill and Hillary have been eager to shine a light on potentially “dark secrets,” which Bill discussed in a 2005 speech in Hong Kong:
“I did attempt to find out if there were any secret government documents that reveal things [about UFOs], and if there were, they were concealed from me, too. I wouldn’t be the first president that underlings have lied to or that career bureaucrats have waited out ... But, if so, they successfully eluded me, and I’m almost embarrassed to tell you I did try to find out.”
In October, the whole world discovered that Podesta was involved in official preparations for galactic war when WikiLeaks exposed his emails with former astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell about the U.S. Treaty on the Prevention of the Placement of Weapons in Outer Space. And earlier this year, the National Security Agency revealed that Russia was involved in hacks on the Democratic National Committee. Hillary Clinton called the first WikiLeaks data dump “an attack on the international community” in 2010. But it isn’t an attack if the government dumps its own data first.
In an interview earlier this year, Podesta rekindled hopes that such an effort would be high on Clinton’s agenda, telling political reporter Steve Sebelius that he had convinced Clinton to disclose much of the classified information on UFO phenomenon. “It’s time to find out what the truth really is that’s out there,” he said. “We ought to do it because it’s right. We ought to do it because the American people, quite frankly, can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law.”
Now, with Trump in office, instead of setting a precedent for a government that has moved beyond covert Cold War tactics into an unprecedented era of openness, we are transitioning to an administration with an unsettling fondness for a Russian president who spent decades as a KGB operative. Radio show Coast to Coast AM, still on the air, though now hosted by Art Bell’s maligned rival George Noory, described Donald Trump’s “stunning victory” in a post-election blog post as “a devastating blow to the UFO disclosure movement.” It’s a sentiment echoed by Bassett, who says that he has no plans to lobby a Trump administration to declassify the UFO files. Instead, he’s looking to redirect his efforts elsewhere.
“I’m packing up my shop and moving to Europe,” he said. “The British and Vladimir Putin are sitting on the same classified intelligence. I’d prefer it to be an American who makes history, but getting the truth out there is the most important thing.”

UFO Sighting In Sebastian Excites Local Enthusiasts
UFO Sighting In Sebastian Excites Local Enthusiasts
A green object was seen in the sky over Sebastian. (Photo: Duffie Almeida Fattey)
SEBASTIAN, Florida – A UFO was captured by a Sebastian resident when she was taking pictures of the clouds on Wednesday near the Indian River.
At first glance, the object appears to be a lens flare. But upon further investigation, the Unidentified Flying Object shows up in other images without the flare (see picture below).
“I was just taking pictures of the clouds and sun and noticed it,” Duffie Almeida Fattey said in a statement. “Then, 15 minutes later I went out and took more pictures.”
The object appears to be bright green, and the size is unknown. There are a lot of theories on what it might be. It can’t be the moon since it was on the opposite side of the planet at the time these photos were taken.

The object in the photo can’t be a meteor because they usually leave a tail and carry streaks, and meteors only last a few seconds. This UFO was in the sky for several minutes.
There have been other sightings in Sebastian reported to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which is an American-based non-profit organization that investigates cases of alleged UFO sightings.
The first report of a UFO in the area was on January 4, 2015, when two red glowing objects suddenly changed direction, according to MUFON.
The second incident was reported on May 6, 2015, after several residents spotted a “metallic long inverted cross like shape” that made no noise.
MUFON received the third report of a UFO sighting in Sebastian on February 3, 2016, after witnesses saw a well-formed contrail that made a tight zig-zag flight pattern, into a loop. The UFO then appeared to go straight up with two black forms on each side.
There must be an explanation for this sighting. In the meantime, we’ll just accept it as a Christmas greeting.
Investigative filmmaker Jeremy Corbell talks about his documentary, 'Moonwalker', which profiles NASA astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell and his fascination with the paranormal.
Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell makes his livingseeking out the ExtraOrdinary; that seemingly gratuitous capitalization perfectly encapsulating his mission to–as he puts it–“force us to reconsider the fabric of our own beliefs” and consider an atypical alternative. His approach is to undermine attempts to discredit unorthodox opinions by way of discrediting the opinion holders themselves.
This investigative journalist and documentarian believes that the key to opening minds to a radical viewpoint is to filter the message through credible sources; highly regarded, successful, smart individuals whose very presence compels an audience to, at the least, hear them out.
Corbell demonstrates this method in his documentary, Moonwalker, which profiles the late Dr. Edgar Mitchell. In this iteration, the credibility lies in Mitchell’s credentials: NASA astronaut, aeronautical engineer, Lunar Module pilot of Apollo 14, and the sixth person to walk on the moon. Less credible were the theories he developed over the course of his career; Mitchell was outspoken in his conviction that aliens exist, that they have visited earth and that governments cover this fact up. He also believed in parapsychology and remote healing, which he claimed cured him of cancer.
Corbell was one of the last people to interview this enigmatic figure before he died at age 84 in February 2016. His documentary focuses on Mitchell’s involvement in Ufology and ExtraTerrestrial intelligence.

OMNI: What first triggered your deep fascination with the UFO phenomenon?
Jeremy Corbell: It was 1989, and I was 13 years old. I remember sneaking a radio into bed so I could stay up late and surf the airwaves. I hid under my sheets and kept the volume low, as to not get caught staying up late on a school-night. I found a station broadcasting, to me at the time, a random interview. The questions were being asked by a Nevada-based reporter, George Knapp. He was interviewing and investigating the claims of a former government physicist named Bob Lazar. At that time, no one had heard of Lazar outside of scientific circles. Today, Lazar is famous–the only reason anyone knows of Area 51 is because of Bob. His story eventually became global news. OMNI actually did an extensive article on Lazar about five years after he came forward with his story (OMNI MAGAZINE, APRIL 1994).
What drew me into Lazar’s story was his description of how flying saucers actually worked. The story goes, Lazar was stationed at a top-secret sub-base of Area 51 in Nevada called S4 and was tasked by a branch of the United States government with reverse-engineering a Non-Terrestrial propulsion system. He later discussed a power-source he examined (an isotopically stabilized version of Element 115) and the Anti-Matter Reactor harvested from one of the saucers. He even went into great detail on how these machines (at least the one he personally worked on) traversed space-time. His story was mind-blowing. It tantalized the imagination and provided potential proof that we were being visited by non-human intelligences and our government had actually recovered, or been given, some form of alien technology.
The propulsion technology Lazar described was so counterintuitive, it literally flipped my script. He talked about wave guides and gravity wave amplifiers. He explained that Gravity was a wave and how, like any wave, it could be amplified. The concept of amplifying and directing gravitational waves had huge implications; if you distort gravity, you are also distorting time-space. All three (gravity / space / time) are intimately connected.
In essence, traditional propulsion is like shooting a bottle rocket into the sky – it’s pretty straightforward. What Lazar was describing was far more sophisticated. Imagine that time-space is like a waterbed, and on that waterbed you place a bowling ball. Anywhere you press your fist on the bed, the bowling ball will fall towards your fist. Essentially, this is what happens when you distort space-time with a powerful and directed gravity wave. You’re not really flying, rather, you’re falling towards your destination.
This was the moment, this one interview when I was 13 years old, something powerful ignited inside of me and I began my journey towards seeking the truth. A sort of bizarre quest to personally find answers to these big questions. I wanted to know if there were other intelligent and technologically advanced lifeforms. More importantly, I wanted to know if they were visiting Earth and, if so, what is the purpose of these visitations? After all, it takes only ONE of the millions of witness reports to be true for the whole egg to crack. Just one. And those are some good odds. On that evening with my radio, my curiosity was weaponized. There was no turning back. I wanted answers. And now, decades later, I’m satisfied I have found some of those answers.

How would you define science fiction? Is it related to science?
Many things we once considered to be Science Fiction have evolved into Science Fact. I think about that every time I get in an airplane or FaceTime my wife on my iPhone. Existing at this moment in human history is similar to a surrealist Salvador Dalí mashup of The Flintstones & The Jetsons.
On one hand, we are still in the Stone Age; we have a Fred Flintstone mentality, propelling vehicles with our bare feet and square stone wheels. For the most part, we don’t utilize our available technology for the good of the Earth and Humankind. We prioritize profit over need and caution over evolution. It takes individuals like Elon Musk (who has the vision and means) to embark on a personal crusade to alter the way we think and consume energy–it’s astounding! We seem to be behind the curve in many fundamental ways; it takes pioneers in each critical sector of human evolution to begin the revolution of how we relate to our world.
On the other hand, we’ve made some enormous technological leaps that at one time seemed like science fiction. In just the past five years alone we've made mind-boggling strides even George Jetson would be astonished by. We now know Gravity is a wave, functional nanotechnology on the atomic scale is a reality and atomic printing is the future of production. We’ve created (unstable) Element 115 in minute amounts using particle accelerators and sent particles of light into the past and retrieved them (like a rudimentary version of WonkaVision). We’ve achieved instantaneous binary communication through the pairing of quarks with implications so vast, breaking the speed of light is only a byproduct footnote. Additionally, current scientific analysis seems to suggest that we live in a holographic Multiverse. A world built from data, where any particular moment contains the entirety of all cause and effect reactions simultaneously and in infinite combinations both temporally and physically. Through the study of quantum mechanics, we understand physical reality directly responds to our personal consciousness; the Universe literally adapts its fundamental laws and manipulates matter in relation to our awareness. If this Science Fact doesn’t sound like Science Fiction, like Werner Herzog, I’ll eat my own shoe.
What was your initial impression of Edgar Mitchell’s controversial claims, and how did your opinion and belief evolve over the course of your interactions with him?
When I first met Dr. Mitchell, I was mainly interested in his experience of being the 6th man to walk on the Moon. He was a hero to me; he was a MOONWALKER for Christ sake! How cool is that? Only a handful of people can say they walked on another celestial body and looked back at the Earth’s globe. Dr. Mitchell’s other claims were almost auxiliary to my desire of speaking with him. Once we began filming, however, I found the rabbit hole to go quite deep.
Dr. Mitchell was a very precise man; he was clear, eloquent and direct. Initially, I desired to learn what he thought of Bob Lazar’s claims and to confirm some confidential information I had been given that only Dr. Mitchell could confirm. Once we got past those basic points, I was exposed to a deeper, more philosophic side Dr. Mitchell had to share. You have to understand, Dr. Mitchell didn’t tow the line in any area of his life; he was a sort of Space Cowboy. A pioneer among mortals. Dr. Mitchell had seen some shit and was willing to talk about it. A moment that particularly sticks out is when we discussed a seminal moment he had when in-route back to Earth during his Apollo 14 mission. He described it to be spiritual in nature and explained he had a cosmic experience upon his decent that forever changed his belief structure. He likened it to a game of pickup-sticks; he said everything he thought he knew about the Universe was thrown in the air and scattered about. Ever since, he’d been picking up those pieces and trying to make sense of it all. When he explained this experience to me, man to man, person to person, I couldn’t help but be affected.
Dr. Mitchell was a believer. He had personally witnessed what we call The Paranormal due to his work at S.R.I. (Stanford Research Institute). He was also briefed on the reality of UFOs by military and intelligence officers; people who were in the position to know. Dr. Mitchell, like me, simply didn’t have the luxury of disbelief by the time I met him. That is something both he and I agreed on adamantly.
How much creative input in your documentary Moonwalker did Dr. Mitchell demand, and how much did you ultimately afford him?
None. Dr. Mitchell trusted me. Because he knew some of the individuals I was working with and he watched a few of my films prior to us meeting, I believe he took a leap of faith that I wouldn’t distort his words. On the other hand, I pushed him on topics; I didn’t want to leave any stone unturned in our sessions together. It wasn’t always comfortable interviewing Dr. Mitchell and there were times when you could see his temper rise.
From the beginning, I made it clear to Dr. Mitchell I wanted to share my footage with the global public. He was all in, he wanted to talk. He deeply believed humanity had a “need to know” and a “right to know” about UFOs and what Dr. Mitchell called The Coverup. After all, he had seen firsthand how information was compartmentalized and hidden from the public, he wanted no part of it. He explained from a military standpoint, the UFO Phenomenon poses a significant threat. It’s a National Security problem, and has always been treated as such. He was adamant on the fact that our nations best kept secret is that we are being engaged by other advanced intelligences and he spoke about how the public has been kept in the dark for decades on the topic. He was very matter-of-fact about that. We discussed the two main reasons for the veil of secrecy. One, no Department Of Defense in the world is willing to admit to its citizens that craft of unknown origin are traversing our skies with impunity. Two, they are so advanced, both technologically and with their maneuverability, we have zero control or recourse. We postulated the reasons for The Coverup, the first being how the uncertainty caused by this reality could be panic invoking to the public. The second is simply that we want to have a technological advantage over other nations. With a technological advantage, we will remain a dominant military superpower.
Dr. Edgar Mitchell was intelligible, so it’s my job to present my film footage with the same clarity. With my work I aim to show who Dr. Mitchell was as an individual, as well as accurately depict the narrative he conveyed to me. That’s my mission, and I’m honored he gave me the opportunity to do so.
Dr. Edgar Mitchell and Jeremy Corbell
What is the most compelling evidence you have come across in support of the existence of extraterrestrial beings?
Some of the best evidence for the uneducated on this topic is the documentation of mass-sightings such as the Phoenix Lights event in 1997 and the Battle of Los Angeles incident in 1942, an event my Grandmother was eyewitness to. Also, the Ariel School Mass UFO Experience in 1994 where 62 children in South Africa had a bizarre and fascinating close encounter; This event was investigated and documented by the BBC and Dr. John E. Mack, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
There have been many mass-sightings over the past decades. It’s a great departure point for conversation because they are hard to deny, especially when you have both civilian and military witnesses coming forward telling the same story from completely different vantage points. Because you have eyewitness accounts from credible individuals and trained observes mixed with photographic and digital data (such as ground and air radar), it becomes difficult to dismiss the event as mass hallucination or trickery.
In fact, I’m working on a case right now that sits right in the sweet zone. I was provided insight and access to information of a recent military event that is not public at this time. It has all the points of interest that I like to focus on, things I can prove, and top notch corroborating witnesses with footage to back up the claims. It was a recent event, and has to do with scout-craft docking with USOs (Unidentified Submerged Objects). It’s a very important and complex case that I believe will be revelatory, once I make it public. That’s all I will say about it at this time.
Truthfully, however, the most compelling evidence I have encountered has been in private, speaking with concerned individuals within the Military Industrial Complex and intelligence communities who want the truth exposed. These conversations have provided me with my best evidence, and my most solid leads as a journalist.
What is the most popular counterargument to that evidence?
The most popular counterarguments to denying the UFO reality are pretty obsolete by this point in history. We are learning new things every day about the nature of reality and our place in the Universe. It’s hard to deny that life is homogeneous throughout the cosmos, from both a philosophic and scientific standpoint; Scientifically, it’s beyond improbable. From the Drake Equation to the Fermi Paradox, people will always debate the possibility of visitation, but if they’re genuinely curious to know the truth, they should spend a little more time looking skyward.
The idea that other Earth-like planets in the goldilocks zone have been nourishing life far longer than here on Earth seems to be easy to grasp for most. I believe the concept of space-time travel is what's most difficult for the majority to comprehend - this is what first attracted me to Bob Lazar’s explanation of how craft are making interstellar trips. The public tends to speak blindly about the UFO topic and in part, that’s by design. We have been taught to ridicule and mock the concept of all things extraterrestrial, embedded quite intentionally into our culture. The truth is stranger than fiction, and it’s quite easy to begin to get a grasp on it if one simply takes the time.

What is the central message of your oft-cited call to “weaponize your curiosity”?
My message is transparent. Ideas are weapons. Your thoughts are extraordinarily powerful. Your questions can act as ammunition to obliterate obstacles standing in the way of knowledge. It’s fucking simple.
If extraterrestrial life does indeed exist, what would need to happen for government bodies and the general public to accept it?
I don’t have a clue. Proof to one person is not proof to another. I feel if any one person sincerely looks at the mountain of documentation that is available on the subject, it’s an undeniable conclusion we are not alone. We have been and are being visited, taunted or educated by some sort of non-human intelligence. And that’s just the starting point. It’s a matter of personal prejudice to hold the belief that humans are the pinnacle of intelligence and technological advancement in our ever-expanding Multiverse. It’s an ego-driven conclusion or a fear-based assumption that goes against basic logic and common sense. I have personally been satisfied beyond a shadow of a doubt that The Phenomenon is real. Our conversation needs to be elevated to the next level.
However, ultimately the architects of the secrecy are the visitors themselves. If they wanted to reveal themselves, they would reveal themselves. It’s quite possible the truth of the matter is so damn strange, we can’t even see it.
Which piece of science fiction features the most accurate representation of aliens?
Science fiction would have to be Star Trek. In fact, I did an interview with Eugene Roddenberry about UFOs and the future of humanity. It has yet to be released, but it’s fascinating. His father was a genius, and Eugene is a chip off the old block.
However, if you want an accurate representation of aliens, how about a film funded completely by the CIA on the subject of UFOs and ET contact titled UFOs: Past, Present, and Future? (narrated by Rod Serling) released in 1974. This little known piece of cinematic history was an attempt from inside the intelligence community to make up for the Project Blue Book debacle. It was presented to test the climate of thought on the topic of UFOs with the public. The film describes an actual landing of craft with beings entering Holloman Air Force Base in 1964. By the way, there is actual footage of this landing - so I would say that it’s a pretty accurate film.
I had the opportunity to question Dr. David Robarge (Chief Historian for the CIA) and and Eugene Poteat (Senior CIA Scientific Intelligence Officer, responsible for programs at Area 51) about the film. My mentor in journalism, George Knapp, was hosting a panel at the Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas. A few decorated CIA men were assembled to talk about the great achievements that were made at Area 51, such as the Stealth Fighter, The SR-71 Blackbird, etc. I asked Dr. Robarge if he was aware the CIA funded UFOs: Past, Present, and Future?. He denied having knowledge that the funding was generated by his agency. However, the film WAS backed by the CIA, and it’s awesome. You should watch it. You can see me interviewing the CIA chaps here.

Are we as a society moving toward being comfortable discussing this? (Especially with the continuing trend of big-budget sci-fi films to this nature.)
Yes. Clearly we are. In 2013 my company and business partner, Reuben Langdon, produced an event called 'The Citizen Hearing on Disclosure'. Reuben is really the unsung hero in getting that event to happen, and Dr. Mitchell was actually our opening speaker at the hearing. It consisted of forty researchers along with military/ agency/ political persons of high-rank and station coming together at the National Press Club in Washington, DC to testify to six former members of the United States Congress about events and evidence indicating an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
It was a historic event. We made the footage available (in multiple languages) to allow these brave testimonies to become part of the public record on the topic of UFOs. If that doesn’t open the doors to conversation, nothing will. You can watch all of the testimony here.
The WikiLeaks release occurred while your film was still in production. How did you capitalize on that last-minute development to facilitate your film’s positive reception?
I’m doing an interview with OMNI.
How does the WikiLeaks play into the overall narrative that you conveyed in your film?
We will have to wait and see. I’m still editing my footage, and the Wikileaks situation was both good and bad for the UFO topic. It was no secret that John Podesta and the Clintons have been trying to open the books on the UFO reality for quite some time. Podesta has petitioned at the National Press Club for the cause and both Hillary and Bill Clinton have openly talked about their interest and intent regarding UFOs and exposing the truth to the American people. As it stands, I’m not going to hold my breath that the WikiLeaks will be a Hail Mary towards Disclosure. Unfortunately, there are forces far beyond political powers controlling the information. It’s up to curious-minded individuals to educate themselves personally.
How has your exploration into the paranormal influenced your appraisal of science fiction from both an enjoyment perspective and in terms of its utility for scientific research?
Two investigations stick out in my mind; first is Skinwalker Ranch. George Knapp and Colm Keller wrote a fascinating book about the bizarre and profound paranormal activity on a seemingly otherworldly ranch in Utah. The ranch sits on sacred Native American land and has a long history of being an epicenter for UFO and paranormal activity. George was the only reporter ever allowed on the ranch to cover the story; Colm is a revered scientist employed by Bigelow Aerospace (owned by billionaire Bob Bigelow). There will be more coming out about Skinwalker Ranch in 2017.
The next investigation that really pushed the envelope of my consciousness is about a guy I call Nano Man. He’s a military-funded nanophysicist that peruses cutting-edge nanotechnology with the sole purpose of helping humans become Extraterrestrials. I have filmed and produced two episodes in the series so far. The first is about a mysterious meta-material he believes “was not created here on Earth.” I took it to NASA's Ames Research Center to see what was up with this alleged Off-World (alien) nano-robotics that Nano Man described as 'Utility Fog' (a term from Science Fiction). In the second episode, I turned my lens on an advanced propulsion system he calls The SpaceDrive. He believes this strange propulsion system may provide hard, physical proof for the existence of the Multiverse (a four-dimensional or higher reality). The discovery would revolutionize not only our understanding of the known Universe and the physics that govern it, but would also exponentially expand the possibility of humanity becoming an interstellar spacefaring civilization.
So basically … I’m already living in a sci-fi movie. I don’t know what else to say. You can watch my Nano Man series here.
Consider the portrayal of UFO and ETI in conventional science fiction as opposed to what your research points out. What are the key differences in these proposed realities?
You gotta love the movie E.T., but what we are dealing with is far more complex and, unfortunately, it may be far more sinister. Most films on the subject are based on actual encounters and some films have actually done a great job at expressing the complexity of the UFO problem. In fact, there has been a great deal of guidance given to those in Hollywood who portray ETIs and UFOs in cinema. I know many military men who were tasked, from time to time, to “advise” for films on behalf of our military and intelligence industry. The Abyss, Close Encounters, Fire In The Sky, Contact, even the television show Stranger Things, were all born from a confirmed event or they referenced actual events.
The one aspect of the UFO problem that I have not seen properly transferred to film yet, is the concept that UFOs are only a symptom of a much greater reality. That concept is so deeply transformative when realized, it’s hard to imagine capturing the feeling with cinema.
You published a video clip called "Bending Spoons" in which Edgar Mitchell tries–and fails–to teach you to use psychokinesis. What was your experience like doing that? Have you tried again?
No. In the film clip you see Dr. Mitchell attempting to teach me to bend spoons with my mind. Apparently, I’m the worst psychokinetic spoon-bender on the planet. I’m OK with that. The backstory is in his work at S.R.I. (Stanford Research Institute) circa early 1970s. He was telling me about what they learned from the experiments they pursued there and about some CIA-funded work being done at that laboratory that he was a part of. Dr. Mitchell personally experienced a multitude of manifestations of The Phenomenon at that time. For example, as they would scrutinize Uri Geller and interrogate his methods, shit just got weirder and weirder apparently. Dr. Mitchell said it got to a point where objects were materializing and de-materializing in the lab. At one point, a miniature flying saucer materialized and was floating around the room. During this era, Dr. Mitchell started to ask questions about if our consciousness somehow influenced the manifestations of The Phenomenon. He went on to create the Institute of Noetic Sciences in 1973 in pursuit of questions like this.
In the end, because I failed so powerfully at melting metal with my mind, Dr. Mitchell told me to “Keep my day job” and signed a hilarious letter to bring back to my wife as a trophy of my failure. He had a great sense of humor.

How would you describe Dr. Mitchell’s attitude toward his position of black sheep among his NASA peers. Did he celebrate his deviation from the norm, or did he harbor resentment or frustration at his naysayers?
Dr. Mitchell was a confident man and I don’t think he gave a shit what anyone thought. He was pissed at NASA on some level, pissed at those who fought to keep the UFO reality a secret. He also had his secrets. He kept some Moon rocks hidden in his home safe (right next to his psychokinetically-bent spoons). No, I don’t think he gave much of a shit what people thought of him.
How do you believe he should be remembered? (Or even, how did he want to be remembered?)
Dr. Mitchell was an explorer. A pioneer. But above all else he was a humanitarian and a seeker of truth. There have been many great men and women who were courageous enough to tell the truth about UFOs, and I’m confident there will be many more in the future. However, sadly, no one can replace Dr. Edgar Mitchell - 6th man to walk on the Moon. The man wore space-boots for Christ sake… those are huge shoes to fill. I can say this with absolute certainty, Dr. Mitchell’s curiosity was weaponized on his decent back to Earth from his Apollo 14 mission. It was the moment that forever changed his life. I can only hope others make the same leap, take risks and make meaningful moves in their lives.
You had the unique opportunity to be the last person to interview Edgar Mitchell. What were his last words to you?
Honestly, I think they were “God Dammit!” I woke him up from a nap to get a final release signature before having to jump on a plane back to Los Angeles from Miami. I don’t think he liked being woken up. It’s funny though, it’s not his last words that are important, it’s the way he opened his home and heart to me. That, I will always remember. And his dog Cutie. He loved that dog (who is featured in my film). Cutie got more treats than there are stars in the heavens above.
How has your research influenced your personal belief system and values?
It has transformed them entirely. It has completely altered my worldview. I went out to find the truth and ended up finding so much more. I went from understanding the UFO problem as a nuts and bolts issue, to seeing the issue as a much larger paradox. I realized the UFO Phenomenon is only one manifestation of a much larger reality. It’s hard to describe in words and that’s why I make films about it. I tell the whole story in a lecture you can watch here.
What does it take to be a black sheep? Can we all aspire to take on a ‘black sheep’ persona? Should we?
It takes courage. And the answer is yes. Break from the fold. Shake things up. Stir the pot. Bend the rules. And if you’ve got anything to confess, come to me about it. Part of being an investigative filmmaker is spilling secrets, the other is knowing when to hold them. I’m good at doing both.
What would you like your viewers to take away from the film?
That depends on what you’re seeking to find. We see what we’re looking at, and we hear what we are listening for. If my audience gets a glimpse into who Dr. Mitchell was and what he was passionate about, that’s enough for me.

VIDEO: Waarom ik in UFO’s geloof (en jij dat ook zou moeten doen)
VIDEO: Waarom ik in UFO’s geloof (en jij dat ook zou moeten doen)
De Amerikaanse schrijver Ben Mezrich gaf onlangs een TED-lezing over UFO’s en andere onverklaarbare fenomenen, meldt de Boston Globe.
Hij had het onder meer over de vliegende schotel die in 1947 op een ranch bij Roswell in New Mexico neerkwam. Het leger zei later dat het een weerballon was, maar Mezrich is sceptisch.
“Ik ben van mening dat wat er is neergestort bij Roswell hoogstwaarschijnlijk niet van hier was,” zei hij.
Heel vreemd
Mezrich sprak over een hulpsheriff uit Colorado die onderzoek heeft gedaan naar UFO-waarnemingen en bizarre gevallen van veeverminking.
“Bij die koeien waren alle organen weggehaald,” zei Mezrich. “Het is heel vreemd allemaal.”
Hij merkte ook op dat Hillary Clinton had beloofd om zoveel mogelijk UFO-stukken vrij te geven als ze president zou worden. “Dat gaat nu helaas niet gebeuren,” aldus Mezrich.
Ondergrondse legerbases
“Deze stukken bestaan echt,” zei hij. “Maar om de één of andere reden wil de overheid ons niet vertellen wat er bij Roswell is gebeurd.”
Zijn reis bracht hem van Roswell en Area 51 naar het Pentagon, geheime ondergrondse legerbases en corporaties die onderzoeken dwarsbomen en proberen over te nemen.
Verduisteringen mysterieuze ster stellen onderzoekers voor raadsel
Verduisteringen mysterieuze ster stellen onderzoekers voor raadsel
Het licht van een nabijgelegen ster wordt op een onverklaarbare manier verduisterd, schrijft de Britse krant Independent.
Pas geleden werd ook al zo’n vreemde ster ontdekt. Men speculeerde toen dat de periodieke helderheidsdipjes werden veroorzaakt door een ‘buitenaardse megastructuur’.
Astronoom Jason Wright zei dat KIC 8462852, ook wel Tabby’s ster geheten, verduisterd zou kunnen worden door een ‘zwerm megastructuren’.
Onbegrijpelijk
“Ik kom hier maar niet uit,” zei hij. “Hoewel het zo interessant en zo gaaf is, is het tegelijkertijd volstrekt onbegrijpelijk.”
Als een ster zwakker wordt, betekent dat doorgaans dat er een planeet of ander hemellichaam omheen draait.
Rond de pas ontdekte ster, RIK-210 geheten, draaien echter geen grote ruimteobjecten.
Deeltjeswolk
In het geval van RIK-210 wordt niet gesproken over ‘buitenaardse megastructuren’.
Onderzoekers denken dat het vreemde gedrag van de ster wordt veroorzaakt door een deeltjeswolk die gevangen zit in het magnetisch veld van de ster.
De ster bevindt zich op een slordige 472 lichtjaar van de aarde.
Lastig
Aangezien het lastig is op zo’n grote afstand waarnemingen te doen, kan het onderzoeksteam nog niet met zekerheid zeggen of de helderheidsdipjes daadwerkelijk worden veroorzaakt door een wolk in de magnetosfeer.
Wel hebben de onderzoekers uitgesloten dat de ster onderdeel uitmaakt van een dubbelstersysteem. Rond de ster draaien ook geen planeten.
Het is nog steeds onduidelijk wat de oorzaak is van het vreemde gedrag van Tabby’s ster, die wordt onderzocht door SETI.
Onbekend object
Net als in het geval van RIK-210 wordt licht tegengehouden door een nog onbekend object rond de ster.
Het zou kunnen gaan om een Dysonbol, een megastructuur die rond een ster is geplaatst door buitenaardse wezens.
Het onderzoek over RIK-210 is gepubliceerd op preprintserver arXiv.
EmDrive: China claimt doorbraak in onderzoek naar ‘onmogelijke’ motor
EmDrive: China claimt doorbraak in onderzoek naar ‘onmogelijke’ motor
Dit stukje technologie lijkt bijna te mooi om waar te zijn. De EmDrive is een motor die wordt aangedreven door elektromagnetische straling in een vacuüm.
Sinds 2010 doen zowel de Verenigde Staten als China uitgebreid onderzoek naar deze ogenschijnlijk onmogelijke motoren. China claimt nu een doorbraak te hebben bereikt.
Dr. Chen Yue van de Chinese academie voor ruimtetechnologie (CAST) liet weten dat China niet alleen een EmDrive succesvol heeft getest, maar dat er ook al wordt geëxperimenteerd met een prototype in de ruimte, aan boord van ruimtestation Tiangong-2.
Duizelingwekkende snelheden
Door de afwezigheid van zwaartekracht en wrijving in de ruimte, kan de EmDrive duizelingwekkende snelheden bereiken.
Een EmDrive kan kwetsbaar zijn voor bijvoorbeeld straling uit de ruimte en om die reden is het belangrijk dat de motor aan boord van een ruimteschip zoals de Tiangong-2 wordt getest.
EmDrives zijn uitermate geschikt voor ruimtereizen omdat er niet hoeft worden bijgetankt. Er is ook geen opslagtank nodig voor brandstof, wat veel gewicht en ruimte scheelt.
Buiten het zonnestelsel
In theorie kan de motor worden gebruikt voor bijvoorbeeld een bemande Marsmissie of ruimtesondes die naar een plek buiten het zonnestelsel gaan.
Als China in staat is om EmDrives te installeren in haar satellieten, zouden ze een stuk goedkoper worden en veel langer meegaan.
Voorbij de planetoïdegordel
De huidige EmDrive produceert een stuwkracht van 1,2 millinewton per kilowatt, terwijl de gemiddelde satelliet 0,1 tot 1 newton nodig heeft.
Met een werkende EmDrive kan China sondes met gemak tot ver voorbij de planetoïdegordel sturen.
White Light UFO Over Mountain In Slovakia On Dec 19, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
White Light UFO Over Mountain In Slovakia On Dec 19, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Dec 19, 2016 Location of sighting: Slovakia
Just a few days ago, this glowing UFO was seen over a mountain top in Slovakia. UFOs tend to be seen over volcanos, like those in Mexico, and mountains, like those in Colorado. I myself recorded a similar UFO here in Taiwan, just a week after it was also seen in China. It glows as bright as the moon. Its huge, and just suddenly appears, then after 15 minutes its just gone! Absolutely mind blowing to know...they are watching you as you are watching them. Hey, I will include the video I took in 2013, here in Taiwan...right over my apartments...never saw it before and never saw it again. Scott C. Waring

UFO With Green Trail Over Homes Near Huntington Beach, California, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: 7-20-2013, but reported this week. Location of sighting: Huntington Beach, California, USA Source: MUFON #81084 Here is an interesting report that was just sent into MUFON today. A dark UFO disk was moving around above the eyewitnesses neighbourhood and the UFO was making a green trail behind it. Now this concerns me because it appears to be a UFO that is spraying something over the neighbourhood. This may be another alien experiment...something that will effect their health, probably mental health and either improve or worsen their lives. If this UFO was damaged which caused the smoke, it would have landed somewhere. Scott C. Waring Eyewitness states:
It was my birthday at my house. I was taking out the kitchen trash. It was approximately 11am, July 20th 2013. I walked out of the exterior garage mandoor on the W side of my house. I immediately heard a low rumble mixed with a hissing like noise above me to the west. I looked up to see what I first thought was a passenger plane on fire. there are many airports nearby and it was not unusual to see planes in the airspace this object was in. within a second or two, I was startled because i had realized this was no plane. it was a dull silver domed object with orange lights around its middle. I thought I could see a small spire like portrusion out of the top of the object. it was a typical domed ufo looking craft.
In fact, that was one of my first conscious thoughts... Wow. My first real UFO sighting and it couldn't be a more typical looking UFO! It was obvious to me that this craft was in trouble. I saw no flame or intense burning/glowing but could see some sort of fluctuating vapor trail being left. The vapor trail didn't seem to be coming from any particular vent or place on the craft. The vapor seemed to almost enshroud the craft and then slip off and fall behind. The rate of the vapor coming off seemed to vary slightly. It would leave a trail and dissipate withing a few seconds. The color was both disconcerning and facinatingly beautiful.
My first thoughts were that it was highly poisonous or radioactive. the rumbling hiss seemed to increase in intensity coinciding with the billowing emerald green shimmery misty vapor or smoke this craft was leaving in its wake. I felt the object was approximately a mile from me when I first observed it. It was directly above me and to the West when I first caught sight of the object, travelling in a South or SW trajectory. It's speed was that of a landing passenger plane. And it's size seeemed to be about as wide as a school bus is long. Maybe 35-40 feet wide at it's center. It was a particularly clear and sunny, beautiful morning day. I could see the object in very clear detail. I saw no markings, windows or anything on the domed surfaces both on top and below. I saw no markings on the central saturn-ring of the object. I saw what looked like a dull orange light in the short (maybe 2-3foot) spire atop the craft. It could have been the extream rush of adrenahlin but I became so overwhelmed with emotion upon seeing this object that I rememeber feeling very faint, and close to throwing up my breakfast. Fighting off the swirling thoughts (fear, excitment, shock, awe, worry, dread, mania, etc...) I remembered my cell phone camera. I remember almost ripping the pocket of my jeans trying to get my phone out. I brought the phone / camera up to my face level and shot three photos. the first was my finger in the way of the lens. the second and thrid shot are attached with this report. I believe my phone at the time was a Samsung S2... I may have had my S5 by then but I'd have to look that up. I can if it matters. the elapsed time between when i first noticed the object and when I managed to start taking photos was probably 10-15 seconds.
The object travelled in a straight line heading S - SW. This would have been from my right to left. It seemed to me to be flying directly above Beach Blvd/Hwy 39, which was the major street near me. It was flying towards the ocean which was approx 3 miles away to the South.
GORDON COOPER & UFOs: AN ASTRONAUT SPEAKS OUT by Timothy Green Beckley
GORDON COOPER & UFOs: AN ASTRONAUT SPEAKS OUT
by Timothy Green Beckley
"One of the few individuals whose prominence is beyond question has, however, over the past few months, dared to open his mouth and challenge the status quo.
Gordon Cooper was one of America's original astronauts. He helped pioneer this country's space exploration efforts when, aboard a tiny space capsule known as Mercury [Faith] 7, Cooper orbited the Earth for 34 hours, proving that man could live outside our atmosphere for prolonged periods. His patriotism, bravery and respectability go without saying...
Cooper has recently made several public pronouncements concerning his strong belief in UFOs. While a guest on the Merv Griffin Show, Cooper shocked the viewing audiences by speaking for over five minutes on a topic that was only within the past few years often considered too bizarre for polite conversation.
But there were some things that Cooper wouldn't even discuss on the air in front of the curious multitudes. Luckily Lee Spiegel is a personal friend of Gordon Cooper. They have conferred on several occasions, and while in the company of the man who is bound and determined to crack the 'Cosmic Watergate' which he is convinced exists within the higher echelon of government, the former space traveler is more than happy to talk about his UFO experiences - and they are many.
In the early 1950s, Cooper was assigned to a jet fighter group in Germany. While stationed there, he remembers very vividly the week an entire formation of circular objects passed over the Air Base on almost a daily routine.
'We never could get close enough to pin them down, but they were round in shape and very metallic looking,' Cooper points out. UFOs were to continue to haunt him when the Air Force Colonel was transferred several years later to Edwards Air Force Base Flight Test Center in the California desert.
What happened one afternoon while he was on duty at this military base is evidence enough that the government definitely does keep a lot of secrets when it comes to UFOs!
The incident took place in the late 1950s, either 1957 or 1958 - as Cooper can best recall; and to this day, the photographic evidence of an actual UFO touching down upon the Earth is being kept under wraps.
During this period, Cooper was a Project Manager at Edwards Air Force Base, just three or four years before entering America's space program. After lunch this particular day, Cooper had assigned a team of photographers to an area of the vast dry lake beds near Edwards.
In a taped interview with UFOlogist Lee Spiegel, the former Astronaut disclosed that while the crew was out there, they spotted a strange-looking craft above the lake bed, and they began taking films of it.
Cooper says the object was very definitely 'hovering above the ground. And then it slowly came down and sat on the lake bed for a few minutes.' All during this time the motion picture cameras were filming away.
'There were varied estimates by the cameramen on what the actual size of the object was,' Cooper confesses, 'but they all agreed that it was at least the size of a vehicle that would carry normal-sized people in it.'
Col. Cooper was not fortunate enough to be outside at the time of this incredible encounter, but he did see the films as soon as they were rushed through the development process.
'It was a typical circular-shaped UFO,' he recollects. 'Not too many people saw it, because it took off at quite a sharp angle and just climbed straight on out of sight!'
Cooper admits he didn't take any kind of poll to determine who had seen the craft, 'because there were always strange things flying around in the air over Edwards.' This is a statement Lee Spiegel was able to verify through his own research efforts, having obtained closely guarded tapes of conversations between military pilots circling the base and their commanding officers in the flight tower, tracking the presence of unknown objects.
'People just didn't ask a lot of questions about things they saw and couldn't understand,' notes Cooper, who adds that it was a lot simpler to look the other way, shrug one's shoulders, and chalk up what had been seen to 'just another experimental aircraft that must have been developed at another area of the air base.'
But what about the photographic proof - the motion picture footage - that was taken? 'I think it was definitely a UFO,' Cooper states, as he makes no bones about it. 'However, where it (the object) came from and who was in it is hard to determine, because it didn't stay around long enough to discuss the matter - there wasn't even time to send out a welcoming committee!'
After he reviewed the film at least a dozen times, the footage was quickly forwarded to Washington. Cooper no doubt expected to get a reply in a few weeks' time as to what his men had seen and photographed, but there was no word, and the movie *vanished* - never to surface again....
On coast-to-coast television, Cooper recently made a blockbuster statement that had the telephone lines tied up the next day, as viewers telephoned the stations which carried the syndicated Merv Griffin Show, anxious to find out if their ears had been playing tricks on them the night before.
Toward the end of the talk-show host's interview with the former Astronaut, Merv broke into a secretive tone of voice right on the air, and aimed a hundred-thousand-dollar question at his guest: 'There is a story going around, Gordon, that a spaceship did land in middle America and there were occupants, and members of our government were able to keep one of the occupants alive for a period of time. They've seen the metal of the aircraft and they know what the people look like - is that a credible story?'
For all intents and purposes Cooper should have laughed for assuredly such a speculative story belongs in the category of science fiction or space fantasy. But Gordon Cooper kept a straight face when he replied: 'I think it's fairly credible. I would like to see the time when all qualified people could really work together to properly investigate these stories and either refute or prove them.'
The bombshell had been dropped. Cooper went on to say that from the various reports of UFO contacts and abductions he had been privy to, he was convinced that the occupants of this crashed UFO were 'probably not that different from what we are,' - that they are almost totally humanoid (i.e., have two arms, two legs, a torso and readily identifiable facial features) in appearance.
Taken aback by what Cooper had said over the national airwaves, Lee Spiegel telephoned Cooper's office the following morning and managed to get past his private secretary, though others in the media were getting the cold shoulder.
'Cooper admitted to me that he could have revealed more on the air, but he decided not to play his entire hand because he felt certain that some 'official eyebrows were going to get raised'.'"

A California witness at Hollywood reported watching a “large UFO” moving over the Hollywood Bowl-101 Freeway area, according to testimony in Case 80813 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The sighting took place about 2:17 a.m. on December 4, 2016.
“I was in downtown old Hollywood area near 101 Freeway and Franklin junction,” the witness stated.“I pulled my car into the 101 Cafe on Franklin Blvd.into the back parking lot which has a 30-degree and up view of a clear night sky with a west, north, and east. As I parked my car I quickly sighted a large blue-white object in the northwest sky about 35 degrees up from horizon through my wind shield.”
The witness first saw a large, blue-white object in the skynear 101 Freeway and Franklin junction.

The witness quickly moved into position to investigate.
“My iPhone read 2:17 a.m. Instantly I jumped out to investigate and questioned to my partner what was in the sky. At the same time, as I spoke this question, a female witness at her car behind us joined in with us to question the same object as she just had spotted it as well. Northwest-west toward the Hollywood Bowl in the Hollywood Hills – Mullholand Drive region an object was gracefully flying over those hills which was a clear mile distance from us.”
The witness described the object.
“The object was flat. Its underbelly was a soft, radiant, blue-white light in a honey-combed patterned shape. Very faint aura around the object. The object’s speed resembled the grace of a blimp, very directional and straight, yet very gradual and slow in shift of direction overall through the experience. The object was heading east towards us and its speed was cruising, causal, slow, yet the light detail resembled a superstructure in a blue-white, honey-combed pattern that was entirely luminous. NO landing lights, no blinking lights, no conventional aircraft resemblance. This was a solid, luminous shape that did not pulsate or change intensity in lumination or brightness. It moved gracefully without abrupt turns. Just smooth, clearly indicating behavior of a large craft, like an aircraft carrier or blimp would, and like these examples, one realized it gained distance in a short amount of time.”
The group tried to decide exactly what the object was.
“We were now three witnesses trying to identify the craft. We quickly agreed the craft was not anything we were ever familiar with, as we all have much flying experience. I am a drone owner as well, and this was not the behavior of a drone with zigzag action or its type of lights. About a minute of observation, we agreed the craft with this behavior easily was in the measurement of 100 feet across at least as it dwarfed the structures below on the hills at an 1500-2000 feet elevation above the hills.”
There was a faint aura around the object and its speed resembled the grace of a blimp.

The craft slowly turned.
“Slowly and gradually the craft turned easily northeast and gradually gaining altitude as it flew over the 101 FYW Cahuenga Pass. About after another minute it was clear the craft was gracefully gaining extreme altitude, and due to elevation, its craft detail was getting smaller as it finally settled over the Hollywood sign mountain. The craft peaked about 5,000feet above the mountain and paused its northeastdirection. It hovered still perfectly without a bump for about another minute. Through this time again the craft was gaining more altitude.”
The witnesses watched the object climb.
“About another 30 seconds of this slow climb, the craft slowly flew southward to our direction. The honey-combed lit pattern was so tiny from its height, yet still identifiable. Its movement and behavior resembled that of high space satellite. The craft eventually was now spotted by two more witnesses as they were entering the cafe, as we were all in agreement of tracking the craft. The slow path and ascension ended directly above us about 7000-8000feet as it hovered in place for another five minutes. As the craft paused, to our view it parked itself near two stars creating an even triangle constellation of sorts. These two stars’ location are the first pair northeast of the Orion left shoulder.”
The craft then gained altitude again.
“After this pause the craft gained an altitude to where it now resembled that of a tiny satellite, or the size of the neighboring stars, and like a slow satellite, it traveled directly west over West Hollywood as its slow path was just north of the Orion constellation. The object was exactly star size as it faded westward gaining altitude, yet still identifiable well past west of Hollywood Blvd and Fairfax.”
The witness tried to report the incident.
“The entire event was about 27 minutes as it was slow and gradual as stated before. I then cell phoned the West Hollywood Sheriff to report the sighting and the officer stated there were no reports of the event. I then contacted the next major airport at Burbank which was about 12 miles away. By this hour, the airport has stopped its regular commercial airline service at 10 p.m. I got through to Burbank tower security who accepted my story and he then transferred me to the actual tower. A stand-by night watch tech took my call. I asked if anyone was watching radar in the south direction of 2:17a.m. He stated he wasn’t watching radar at that time. I described my sighting to him; he sounded interested, but after he claimed he still never had evidence on radar, nor looked, therefore he stated he had to go and hung up on me.”
The witness pulled into a local diner parking lot for a closer look.

The witness compared the object to known objects.
“This craft had no similarity to the usual police helicopters or commercial aircraft that we see by the dozens daily in the area with our three major commercial airports. We do have Edwards AFB but it’s a two-hour drive north. But this was no Stealth plane outline nor was it the dark large Air Force X-Balloon triangle ship. We haven’t had lighted blimps in years since Goodyear stopped that action, nor could a blimp fly that height out of sight or hover in place. It was not a large manned drone, as it would have been way too small in dimension; also the guide lights on a drone were not the same. Nor could a drone have scaled that altitude for that duration and without one single abrupt zigzag kind of movement. Our sighting was a big luminous craft, with smooth acceleration, ending in high altitude without a flinch. Lots of citizens in LA; please respond if there are any other eyewitnesses.”

Earth totally unprepared for surprise asteroid or comet strike, warns NASA scientist (Watch video)
Earth totally unprepared for surprise asteroid or comet strike, warns NASA scientist (Watch video)
The Earth, our home planet, is due for an “extinction-level” event like a comet or asteroid strike, but apparently humans are vastly unprepared at this point of time to deal with the situation.
As per reports, an award-winning NASA scientist has warned that human race at this moment remains ill-prepared for any such threat from outer space – especially the kind that has the potentical to wipe out humanity just as how it did to dinosaurs more than 65 million years ago.
Dr Joseph Nuth, of the NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, told attendees during Monday’s annual American Geophysical Union meeting in San Francisco that there’s not a hell of a lot we can do about it at the moment,” The Guardian reported.
“But on the other hand, they are the extinction-level events, things like dinosaur killers, they’re 50 to 60 million years apart, essentially. You could say, of course, we’re due, but it’s a random course at that point,” Nuth added.
Nuth noted that, while these kinds of cataclysmic collisions are rare in Earth’s history, they aren’t unrivalled.
There had been two near misses of an asteroid hitting a planet in the solar system – when a comet whirred into Jupiter in 1996 and the other in 2014 which passed perilously close to Mars. During this time, mankind did not have enough time and the appropriate technology to potentially avert it.
Urging policymakers to start preparing for such a possible cataclysmic strike, Nuth suggested that NASA needs to build at least two spacecraft – an interceptor rocket and an observer spacecraft – to mitigate such a threat.

UFO in the secret archives Alien Russia – Alien Area51! VIDEO!
UFO in the secret archives Alien Russia – Alien Area51! VIDEO!
According to information from Russia knows about extraterrestrial civilizations over several decades, so for many it is not surprising that such rumors are circulating for many years. Russia’s first contact with the gray aliens allegedly occurred in 1942. At that time, were planned series of diplomatic visits to discuss issues of mutual interest – by alleged Russian documents and agreements that have been created.
According to the document, 072 / E at meeting the 1961 incident occurred that involved three entities for breach of contract officers army base, when they discovered that their arrival was filmed hidden devices without their consent. Based on the agreement were 23/04 confidential meetings and filming or taking pictures was not allowed.
In 1969, in the State of Sverdlovsk was reported that the crashed UFO. It is reported that the crashed UFO and it was acquired by the Russian army. Video film shows rescue and shots from close range UFO itself. The boat was found a dead alien. The remains of an alien UFO wreckage and were taken to some safe place in Russia, where it was analyzed and the plate on an alien autopsy. The photos appeared little alien. Alleged event was broadcast on TNT special “The Secret UFO Files of the KGB.” The agenda featured the former actor depicting James Bond, Roger Moore. In support of the event was shown compelling video and photographic evidence.
According to the Truth KGB allegedly special unit designed to collect and monitor all kinds of information regarding the mysterious and unexplained phenomena that report back inside, and inside the Soviet Union.
According to the Truth he was also on the show TNT shown photocopies of certain orders of the Soviet defense minister, who looked authentically. In compliance with the order, General A. G. Ponomarenko, chief military command Ural area, had to take care to ensure that the KGB agents involved in work related to the UFO at all stages. Reporting agents were immediately undertaken with Colonel A. I. Grigoriev, chief of the KGB, scientific section. According to Billy J.Booth of www.About.com there are unsubstantiated reports that a UFO crashed or was shot down near the city Prohlandnyi in Russia, the 10th of August 1989, the Soviet military radar watched an unidentified flying object and Russia attempted unsuccessfully to establish a vessel contact. UFO was evaluated as “hostile”. We were alerted to the Soviet defense and that UFO found and identified, were sent MIG-25tky.
.
On the outside of the ship were noticeable damage. Rehabilitation team, having dressed in protective suits, arrived at the site. Was measured smaller amounts of radiation and some members of the team were contaminated. At the scene came the helicopter and UFO were transported to the air base of Mozdok (North Ossetia-Alania). The Russians entered the UFO and found two dead alien bodies, one still alive. A team of doctors and other employees tried at all costs to keep the alien alive but failed.
All three creatures were about 90 to 120 centimeters tall, with gray-tight suit. Beneath it were the skin blue-green color with a reptilian texture. They had hair, big black eyes were covered with a protective cap and finger-like flotation blánám were finished long, slender arms. Alien bodies were stored in glass containers and the UFO was transported to the spaceport Kapustin Yar (Volgograd). This information was first announced three Russian investigators – it howled: Anton Anfalov, Lenur Azizov and Alexander Mosolov, but who did not have to support these claims, no documents.
Remember when NASA told us there’sliquid water on the surface of Mars? Well, that little factoid might be murkier than we thought. Turns out, a set of new lab experiments seeking to recreate the supporting evidence ended up with an unexpected outcome.
Here’s the deal: the original data that suggested there was water on Mars was based off something called recurring slope lineae — dark streaks that appear and vanish seasonally on the walls of various coasters and canyons on the surface of the planet. Follow-up data collected by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter indicated that the RSL sites possessed hydrated salts, which could essentially be explained only by some sort of liquid flow of water originating from some place.
And of course, the presence of water on another planet is phenomenal because it suggests another world might be capable of supporting life, and that future astronauts may be able to use that water as a resource for a extraterrestrial colony.
Now, the origin of that liquid water was unknown — and it’s still unknown today. Why are scientists so sure the source has to be ground based? Michael Meyer, the lead scientist for NASA’s Mars Exploration Program, explained to Inverse during an interview for a previous story this year that the atmosphere of Mars is extremely dry. “If you completely froze out the atmosphere of mars, you would have a 10 micron layer of ice around the planet,” he explains. “That’s less than the width of a sheet of paper! The likelihood these RSL sites were getting their thirst quenched by atmospheric water was low.
But a team of researchers decided to verify whether the salts in the RSL sites really had to be hydrated through surface flow, or whether atmospheric water could have been enough. A pair of University of Colorado, Boulder scientists exposed salts to atmospheric conditions similar to Mars, and found that some of them actually became hydrated solely through atmospheric means.
Those results, presented last week at the American Geophysical Unions annual fall meeting in San Francisco, don’t outright nix the idea that there’s a source of liquid water somewhere on Mars. But they do raise some concerns that will need to be addressed and explored through future experiments.
What would help the most, actually, is to acquire an actual sample of the hydrated salts on Mars and analyze them directly. The problem is that the RSL sites are located in pretty harsh terrain — sending humans in would be a dangerous endeavor, and we don’t yet have the kind of robotic technology that could feasibly go in on its own.
Regardless, the results underscore the fact that while water on Mars is an exciting prospect, we should not get carried away until we have tangible proof of what we’re seeing.
A professor ofartificial intelligence has called on the United Nations to impose a global ban on lethal autonomous weapons, fearing the “terrible and terrifying prospect” of robots killing civilians. Toby Walsh, from the University of New South Wales in Australia, wants attendees at Friday’s UN disarmament conference in Geneva to commit to formal discussions over a ban.
“The reason I have been motivated to do this is simple,” Walsh said in a story published Thursday. “If we don’t get a ban in place, there will be an arms race. And the end point of this race will look much like the dystopian future painted by Hollywood movies like The Terminator.”
Walsh points to existing bans on chemical and biological weapons as a model. Their effectiveness is questionable, but they have greatly reduced the likelihood of coming across them in combat. He’s a strong believer in a ban: Walsh was one of the signatories to an open letter in 2015 calling for a ban, and on Thursday he spoke at the UN for a third time to persuade countries to consider the idea.
“All technology can be used for good or bad,” Walsh said in his article. “We need to make a conscious and effective decision soon to take the world down a good path.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 2: a vision of the future?
It’s not just on the battlefield that people are concerned about killer machines. Brad Wardell, CEO of Stardock, warned in September that private companies using autonomous security robots could lead to a mass increase in global inequality. As wealth accumulates with those in charge of autonomous robots, these machines will be used to crush any revolutionary uprisings occurring in the masses.
Beyond a global ban, A.I. ethicists are turning to guidelines to help encourage “best practices.” A draft IEEE report published this week recommends that weapons without any meaningful human control should be considered unethical. But any rules around A.I. will have to come down to the designers, as hard coding rules into machines is considered a less practical approach. A UN ban, if implemented, would likely mean arms corporations avoiding autonomous weapon designs altogether.
The Enigmatic Pyramids of the Amazon: An ancient civilization lost in time
The Enigmatic Pyramids of the Amazon: An ancient civilization lost in time
In the tangled and dense jungles of the Amazon, there are numerous mysteries that could probably help us understand how ancient civilizations live in the distant past. We know so little about our planet, and researchers are unaware of the possible archaeological discoveries that remain hidden in the Amazon. As technology moves forward and tools as Google Earth become more popular, many people try their luck hoping to make a discovery that no one else has made in the past. Google Earth has become the one of the boldest tools numerous archaeologists are using, consistently delivering huge results that help researchers in many ways.
We are talking about the pyramids of paratoari, usually referred to as “the dots”, seen in one of the satellite images from NASA.
Even thought that several researchers believe that the Pyramids of Paratoari are truncated ridge spurs, which can take the form of natural pyramids, there are many other scientists who firmly believe that these structures were built in the distant past by a civilization that has never before been seen.
Excursions to the region found plenty of evidence of Incan inhabitance in the area, such as petroglyphs, paved roads, and platforms.
The mysterious pyramidal structures were first identified via NASA satellite photograph number C-S11-32W071-03, released in 1976. The images caused numerous researchers to venture to the Manu area of dense tropical rainforest in southeast Peru in hopes to find out whether these structures were actually built by an ancient civilization, lost in time.
While renewed archaeologists have refused to take into consideration the pyramids and their artificial origin, other researchers suggest that the symmetrical space between them and uniform shape of the structures points to the fact that these are not natural sandstone formations as some have suggested.
The same debate can be seen in the “recently” discovered Pyramids in Bosnia. While numerous researchers suggest that the structures in Visoko are mere natural formations, other researchers point to the fact that the structures in Bosnia are of artificial origin, just like the pyramids of Paratoari.
We have to remember that even today, in the twenty-first century, there are places on Earth, yet unexplored, and the Amazon Jungle is one of the most unexplored regions of them all.
The Pyramids of Paratoari are symmetrically arranged structures that could not be natural formations, but the product of human hands.
Looking at things from a historical point of view, we know that the area of Madre de Dios has been defined by many researchers in the past as the place where the Incas hid after the advance of the Spanish conquistadores towards Cusco in 1533. Wouldn’t it be logical that the Inca created monuments and structures in that region? It certainly is possible if you keep an open mind and understand that there are many hidden secrets buried beneath sands, jungles and oceans around the world.
The mystery of the Pyramids of Paratoari certainly continues and maybe one day, we will know for sure what these mysterious structures truly are.
Yesterday, Express.co.uk reported on the increasing number of reports of triangle-shaped UFOs being made to investigators.
Now details have emerged of a strange sighting said to involve four triangle UFOs, followed by several "star-like objects".
The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is investigating the case.
The unnamed witness from Fairless Hills, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in the US said the triangle-shaped UFOs moved silently and were just 20 feet over neighbouring homes.
Oddly, they said they were followed by "20 to 30 star-like objects".
In a report to US-based MUFON, which holds a global database of UFO sightings, the witness said: “At approximately 8.20pm we turned and began walking up a street with a slight incline, and my youngest child stopped to catch a Pokémon and had lagged behind.
"I noticed he was no longer with us and I turned around to call to him to catch up, and right behind him were two huge, black, triangular craft, larger than the houses they were above, flying slowly and approximately 20 feet above the one story houses across the street, and approximately 20 feet away.
“The second craft was flying at the same height as the first craft, immediately behind it.

"The two craft were black with three unwavering bright white lights at the three corners of the triangles, with a solid bright primary, red light in the centre of the craft.
"The craft were completely silent; they were almost on top of us and we never would have known they were there if I did not happen to look behind us.
"The two craft came from a western direction and were heading east.”
The eyewitness said they changed direction.
They said: "We observed the craft silently shift direction southeast before disappearing behind trees.
"When I looked behind again to where we had sighted the craft, two more triangular craft were flying in the exact same direction in the exact location where the first two craft were sighted, and they turned and headed southeast in exactly the same spot that the other two craft had turned.
There were two huge, black, triangular craft, larger than the houses they were above, flying slowly and approximately 20 feet above the one story houses.
MUFON witness
"It was as if we witnessed deja vu; as if we viewed the event again, but this time at a slightly different angle, as we were slightly farther away from the craft the second time around.
“We turned east and onto my road, when we looked up into the sky and witnessed a patch of sky with between 20 and 30 balls of light, exact number unable to be determined, that looked like stars, except that they were moving.
"Some of the lights were moving very slowly, almost imperceptibly, but other craft were moving so quick that they would leave a light trail behind them, as they shifted position.
"The lights were different colours, from red to bluish-white to orange to bright white.
