ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!
ROSWELL UFO CRASH - FIRST HAND WITNESS TESTIMONY - ONE ALIEN WAS ALIVE!
This is Gerald Anderson's story of the Roswell UFO crash. He was interviewed by famous UFO researcher Stanton Friedman (the same researcher who first obtained Major Jesse A. Marcel’s testimony about the Roswell incident.
During this interview, Gerald Anderson tells of him as a young boy of walking up on a crashed UFO complete with its crew of 4 and with one alien creature still alive. µ
THE ROSWELL INCIDENT WAS, IN FACT, A CRASHED UFO
Anderson was out rock hunting with some family members on the Plains of St. Augustine near Socorro on the July 1947 morning that this event took place.
His testimony was polygraph proved, which proves that the UFO phenomenon is real and the Roswell Incident was, in fact, a crashed UFO.
When they were out rock hunting, they discovered a silver disk. There were three creatures, three bodies, lying on the ground underneath this thing in the shade. Two weren't moving, and the third one obviously was having trouble breathing. There was a fourth one next to it, sitting there on the ground. There wasn't a thing wrong with it, and it apparently had been giving first aid to the others.
After a couple of minutes, Anderson investigated the UFO and the alien that was still alive turned and looked at him. Anderson had the feeling the creature was inside of his mind. He could hear his thoughts.
A group of armed soldiers suddenly appeared. The extraterrestrial creature, which had calmed down after its initial fright, "went crazy" at the sight of the soldiers. Thinking back on the creature's plight today brings on the "most awful, horrible feeling," Anderson says.
"His situation was hopeless. He was aware of it. He'd just lived through a nightmare that most of us wouldn't be able to psychologically stand. He'd watched two of his crew die. He knew there's no chance of rescue because our military is here and his people aren't going to be able to get him.
"As a kid, I was aware of what being afraid of the dark was like., and the feeling I got from him at the moment was that feeling multiplied a million times. It was really scary. It was terrifying.

UFOs are a common thing in the skye of Mexico and have been since ancient times. The live cam feed only gives us one photo every 20-30 seconds, but still thats helpful. Here we have a UFO thats very big, about the size of a 727 compared with the width of the mouth of the volcano. When you add light to it, the UFO does take a fat disk shape to it. There are no wings, no strings, no jet trail and its gone in the next photo 20 sec later. It is probably heading from or to the mouth of the volcano.
You want a famous date in Lafayette history? How about April 12, 1897?
That's when our newspaper ancestor, the Lafayette Evening Courier, told its first UFO story.
It went like this:
"Nearly every town in this part of the United States claims to have seen the phantom airship, the 'Flying Dutchman' of the midnight air. ... Some strange object is being seen in the air (with) funny little lights, red, white and green, (that) flit about ..."
This led the Courier's rival, the Morning Journal, to report in early May 1897 that "a well-known young man told of seeing a cigar-shaped flying ship with lights and two men aboard. It landed in a meadow on a dark road between Stockwell and Crane Station while the man was bicycling about 9 p.m."
This eyewitness said he had been "wheeling" (bicycling), presumably on country roads now numbered 560 South, 900 South, 500 East, 525 East, 700 South and Stockwell Road, near today's Woodland Elementary School.
The "well-known young man" (call him WKYM) continued:
"It was dark, I was alone and moving. ... All at once there was a loud, hissing noise similar to the escape of steam from a locomotive. ... My hat was almost lifted from my head by the wind of an object passing over my head. I threw my hands up to catch my hat. My wheel struck a rock or something and I fell on my back on the road.
"Only a few yards away in a small meadow I saw the strangest object that any mortal has ever seen.
"It looked like a perfecto-shaped cigar about 20 feet long and perhaps 8 feet in diameter at the biggest point. A box or car was suspended from the cigar-shaped arrangement by a network of tubular wires. The cigar-shaped affair was pointed toward me. From the end there flashed a large light. It was a scintillating blaze and different colors came and went with startling rapidity.
"Two men were standing on the ground by the side of the strange object and seemed to be busy with several of the wires. I heard one say, 'I wonder where we are?' He spoke with a foreign accent and I thought at the time he was some French scientist. His companion replied in excellent English, and I supposed he was an American."
When WKYM decided to overcome his fright and make friends with the strangers, he told the Journal: "The men saw me. Lights flashed from both ends of the cigar-shaped arrangement. In another instant it rose like a thing of life and was many hundred feet high in the time it takes to tell it."
But the Courier created its own credibility gap when it quoted WKYM as having said: "I picked up my wheel, took a small pull at an amber-colored fluid I had purchased at Lebanon, and pedaled for home as fast as I could."

BLOGS Triangle UFOs Over New York State
Triangle UFOs Over New York State
Columnist Cheryl costa discusses triangle-shaped UFO sightings in New York state.
They are big, black and triangular in shape. They’ve been reported to be 75-100 feet long and 45-60 feet wide. Some witnesses suggest that they are two stories high. These are triangle UFOs over New York state.
Many people think the triangle UFOs are strictly occurrences reported in the 20th and 21st centuries. Yet in Charles Fort’s 1919 work The Book of the Damned, there are accounts of triangle sightings from various far-flung parts of the world from the early as 1880s. The earliest-known sighting in New York state dates from June of 1962 in Bethpage in New York’s Nassau County.
Triangle UFOs rank fifth among the most commonly reported UFO shapes. Nationally, triangle UFOs are 9.14 percent of the total triangle sightings of about 11,000, from 2001 through 2015. California ranks first with 1,454 reported triangle sightings or about 13 percent of the national sightings.
New York state ranks sixth for triangle sighting reports, about 3.74 percent, with 414 from 2001 to 2015.New Yorkers have reported as little as 12 triangles in 2005 and 42 in 2014, with an average of about 27 per year.
The map above shows New York state’s top 14 counties for triangle sightings. These 14 counties represent 62 percent of New York’s triangle sightings from 2001-2015.

Austin Backyard Becomes a Haven for UFO Searchers
Austin Backyard Becomes a Haven for UFO Searchers
By QILING WANG
Reporting Texas
Members of Austin Skywatchers scanned the sky in search of UFOs on at a private helipad oin Southwest Austin. Qiling Wang/Reporting Texas
On a breezy fall evening in Southwest Austin, a group gathered around a stone circle in a backyard as dusk fell.
Yvonne Self, a spiritual counselor who founded Austin Skywatchers in 2014, welcomed new members as they prepared to search the sky for UFOs.
The organization brings together people who say they have interacted with beings from outer space. According to the group’s MeetUp profile page, over the past few years, it has attracted more than 200 “first-contact ambassadors” to facilitate interaction with extraterrestrial civilizations.
The members meet fortnightly to share their UFO experiences and to practice meditation while they observe the night sky.
The idea that we may not be alone in the universe, and a fascination with outer space, dates back centuries. The belief in UFOs persists, despite the absence of scientific evidence.
“It’s not impossible that you could have visitors from outer space to the Earth. But if you are going to claim that’s true, you should present some good evidence,” said Peter Shostak, senior astronomer for the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, which conducts exploratory research into the possibility of intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, among other astronomy topics. “It’s like ghosts. People report ghosts, and I am sure that you can find tens of thousands of reported cases every year.”
His organization — the acronym stands for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence — is among the professional scientific groups that look for evidence that other parts of the universe may have had conditions that could support life, such as water. Several large radio telescopes, including one in Puerto Rico associated with the National Science Foundation, search for signals that could indicate intelligent life in the great beyond.
Self and other UFO enthusiasts say they have the evidence they need, and that others would believe them if they only saw the research, which they think the government suppresses.
“All of you are here because even though you may not be aware of it at the moment, you are very likely interacting with them (aliens) now and assisting them as well to establish the first contact,” Self told the group in October.
Self said she has been interacting with what she calls “off-world beings” since she was a toddler, and that it’s time to embrace them “in a more open and physical way.”
“We’ve come to a time as a species where we are moving away from being planetary-centric beings, and moving towards becoming galactic beings,” said Self.
She established the group to provide people a platform to share their UFO sighting experiences and to prepare themselves for further contact with beings from outer space. She believes that can be achieved through meditation and feeling the connection deepens with these beings.
As the sky darkened that fall evening, the group switched into a meditative pose. A mellow-sounding meditation guide played on Self’s laptop as she instructed the group to close their eyes and focus their attention inwards.
After a 15-minute session, the group walked to a private helipad nearby. Carrying lawn chairs, blankets and binoculars, they were ready for the UFO-gazing experience. They keenly watched every blinking object in the sky.
“Don’t flash at it!” someone shouted, when one man aimed a laser to pinpoint at a flying object.
“It’s a great bunch of folks,” said Emin Navarro, 64, an Austin-based guitarist and Army retiree. “Everyone accepts what is being said and stays positive about the possibilities.”
Navarro joined the group two years ago after he said he spotted a UFO shaped like a Chinese box kite in Dallas. However, he seldom talks about his experience with his family or friends because he thinks they will belittle his encounter.
“People are not very accepting of the unusual,” he said.
Robert Powell is director of research and field investigator in Texas for the Mutual UFO Network. or MUFON, based in Newport Beach, California, investigates UFO sightings and has a weekly “traffic report” digital radio show.
“If you meet a friend in a coffee shop, he might want to talk with you about his UFO experience,” said Powell. “But if you met him in a classroom and the teacher asked if anyone had a UFO experience, he would probably not raise his hand.”
While there has been stigma and mystery surrounding UFOs, on a national level, more than 90,000 UFO sighting cases have been curated at the National UFO Reporting Center, a Seattle-based organization. Texas is one of the top states for UFO reports, according to the organization’s website.
UFO enthusiasts have different opinions about why the topic has been marginalized. Some claim that it is a government conspiracy, while others believe it has to do with the belief system.
“We’ve built our society over the last 2,000 years on certain beliefs to come to what we have today,” said Ken Jordan, director of MUFON’s San Antonio Chapter. “It took us a while to accept that we are not the center of the universe, and we’ll get used to the fact that we are not the only ones in the universe eventually. In many major religions, there is still a stigma attached to the fact that somebody else might be out there.”
During her campaign, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said in a radio interview that she would open government files on the subject of UFOs and Area 51, a restricted part of Edwards Air Force Base in Nevada that has been the topic of numerous conspiracy theories. Clinton’s statement led some UFO enthusiasts to declare her the “ET candidate.”
Jordan wasn’t buying it. “She is a member of the secret organization that is committed to keeping information quiet,” he said.
Diana McManus, 65, one of the original members of Austin Skywatchers, said she became a believer after seeing something hovering over her backyard in Austin three years ago.
“I was trying to meditate and I thought to myself, ‘If you are really out there, then show me’,” said McManus.
When she looked up, McManus suddenly saw a white ball of light, half the size of the moon, darting across the sky and then disappearing.
“I was amazed,” said McManus. “I feel that they must have heard me.”

VIDEO: “ISS-astronauten verbergen bewijs voor mysterieuze lichten bij ruimtestation”
VIDEO: “ISS-astronauten verbergen bewijs voor mysterieuze lichten bij ruimtestation”
Alien-jagers claimen dat astronauten aan boord van het internationale ruimtestation ISS doelbewust bewijs voor UFO’s verbergen. Dat schrijft de Britse Daily Mirror.
In een video op YouTube is een astronaut van het ISS te zien met op de achtergrond de aarde.
Op het moment dat in de verte mysterieuze lichten in beeld verschijnen, doet de astronaut zijn hand voor de camera.
Liegt
Hetzelfde gebeurt in een ander fragment waarin een oplichtend object voor de aarde langs zoeft. Opnieuw wordt het beeld afgedekt door een witte handschoen.
Complottheoretici zien hier bewijs in dat we niet alleen zijn in het heelal en dat de overheid tegen ons liegt.
“Dit zijn indrukwekkende beelden,” zei iemand. “Ik heb zoiets nog nooit gezien. Hoe kan iemand dit debunken?”
Onverklaarbaar object
Afgelopen maand werd nog een UFO vastgelegd boven het centrum van de stad Sheffield.
Daarnaast heeft de Chileense overheid opmerkelijke videobeelden vrijgegeven van een onverklaarbaar object.
De UFO werd eind 2014 bij daglicht gespot door de bemanning van een legerhelikopter die boven zee vloog.
DE GEHEIME WERELD VAN UFO'S EN ONDERGRONDSE BASES ( VIDEO )
DE GEHEIME WERELD VAN UFO'S EN ONDERGRONDSE BASES ( VIDEO )
Er zijn verschillende werelden op de planeet waarop wij leven.
Er is de “normale” wereld die voor iedereen zichtbaar is en er is de verborgen, geheime en vaak ondergrondse wereld waar zich dingen afspelen die onze stoutste dromen overtreffen.
Zo is ondertussen bekend dat er voor, tijdens en direct na de Tweede Wereldoorlog een deel van de Duitse wetenschapswereld met hun kennis is vertrokken naar Antarctica, waar ze tot op de dag van vandaag nog de nodige bases hebben.
Niet alleen in Antarctica zijn ze zeer actief, ook in Zuid Amerika en dan met name in Brazilië. In dat land wordt volgens sommige onderzoekers een versie gebouwd van de zogenaamde retro vliegende schotel, dat wil zeggen een soort schijf met platte onderkant.
In de volgende video wat ouderwetse polaroid foto’s van de Duitse basis in Brazilië.
Iemand die zich bezighoudt met onderzoek naar geheime (ondergrondse) basis is Dr. Richard Sauder. Hij heeft hierover een boek geschreven met de titel “Hidden in plain sight”, wat zoveel betekent als “verborgen in het volle zicht”.
Jarenlang heeft Sauder door vrijgegeven overheidsdocumenten gespit en met vroegere insiders gesproken over hun kennis van alle verborgen installaties en bases. Van de dingen die Dr. Sauder heeft ontdekt, val je van je stoel.
Er is een complete ondergrondse wereld, bestaande uit een enorme experimenteel wetenschappelijke en militaire infrastructuur. Een wereld die specifiek is ontworpen voor geheime operaties.
Met overheidsinstanties die aan niemand (publiekelijk) verantwoording afleggen, onbeperkte begrotingen en zonder media-aandacht bestaan deze enorme complexen compleet in het geheim.
Het begon allemaal weer met de Nazi’s die al de gewoonte hadden om hun geheime militaire industriële bases onder de grond te bouwen. Van daaruit zijn we tegenwoordig terechtgekomen bij de DUMBS (Deep Underground Military Bases).
Volgens Sauder hebben de zogenaamde schaduwregering die hij noemt de US National Security State, enorme wat men noemt Black Budgets tot hun beschikking. Geld dat zo zwart is als de nacht en helemaal nergens voor komt in de officiële boeken van de overheid.
Met al dat geld hebben ze een enorme ondergrondse infrastructuur opgezet met commando- en controle centra die, zoals ze zeggen, nodig zullen zijn voor het overleven van de mensheid in een eventueel rampscenario en om te zorgen dat de overheid kan blijven functioneren, de zogenaamde Continuity of Government (COG) in geval van een nucleaire oorlog.
Naast deze mainstream verklaring voor alle ondergrondse activiteiten is er ook nog de verborgen agenda van het ontwerpen, testen en ontwikkelen van UFO’s, net zoals de Duitsers dat doen op Antarctica en in Brazilië.
De benodigde toegang tot dit soort faciliteiten vereist een nog hogere classificatie dan die van de mensen die werken aan nucleaire zaken.
Hieruit concludeert Sauder dat men er alles aan zal doen om de verkregen geheimen van UFO-technologie voor zich te houden en te zorgen dat deze niet onder ogen van onbevoegden komen.
Bovenstaande en nog veel meer komt aan de orde in het hiernavolgende interview dat Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt had met Dr. Richard Sauder.
You cannot feel or hear the world turning. It does not rumble through space. But you can see it turn with your own eyes every day and night. And, with patience, you can see Earth travel around the Sun.
As the globe turns and night falls, stars appear to travel from east to west across the night sky. Or do they?
How stars move across the sky is a touch more complicated than you may first imagine. And the motion of the stars tells us about our place on the world and our travels around the Sun.
We live on a spinning globe, and as we turn different swathes of the universe come into view. However, what you see depends on where you are.
Guiding light
Almost directly above the North Pole is the star Polaris. As the world turns on its axis, Polaris remains above the North Pole. If you had the misfortune of being at the North Pole in midwinter, Polaris would be a constant companion overhead.
Imagine an alien looking down from Polaris at Earth. What would they see? They would see Earth’s Northern Hemisphere, spinning anticlockwise around the North Pole. A Polarisian would never see Earth’s Southern Hemisphere, with its red Australian deserts and frozen Antarctic wastes.
Who can see Polaris from Earth? People across the Northern Hemisphere can see Polaris, and it never rises nor sets.
However, while Polaris is high in the sky when viewed from inside the Arctic circle, as you move towards the Equator, Polaris gets closer and closer to the northern horizon. If you travel into the Southern Hemisphere, Polaris falls below the northern horizon, and never rises at all.
So which stars you see and how high they get in the sky depends on where you are. Indeed, navigators have used the stars for centuries to determine how far they are from the Equator.
In the Northern Hemisphere, Polaris allows you to find north. Unfortunately, people in the Southern Hemisphere are not blessed with a bright star above the South Pole, making navigating by the stars a tad trickier.
Breakdancing hunters
Of course some stars do rise and set. The stars in the constellation Orion, the hunter, are almost directly above the Equator. From almost anywhere on Earth, the stars of Orion rise and then set roughly 12 hours later.
However, our view of Orion depends on where we are. If you are in London, and looking at Orion when he's highest in the night sky, then you see Orion towards the south (because Orion is directly above the Equator). Orion's feet are sensibly pointing towards the southern horizon.
If you are in Melbourne and looking at Orion when he's highest in the night sky, then you see Orion towards the north. Now Orion has his head pointing towards the northern horizon, with his feet in the air.
I actually prefer the fun-loving breakdancing Orion of the Southern Hemisphere to the more staid Orion seen from the Northern Hemisphere.
Our view of constellations can also change throughout the night. The Southern Cross isn't directly above the South Pole, instead being 60 degrees above the South Pole's horizon at all times. From southern Australia, the Southern Cross is above the horizon all the time, moving clockwise in a giant circle every day.
On a summer's evening in Melbourne (or Wellington, or Patagonia), the Southern Cross starts near the southern horizon and is "upside down" (at least compared to the Australian Flag). But by morning twilight it has risen high in the sky and is (roughly) the right way around. Of course, the "motion" of the Southern Cross isn’t caused by the constellation moving, but by us being spun around on a turning world.
A time lapse taken at La Silla Observatory in Chile, showing stars moving clockwise above the southern horizon.
A world in motion
The world isn't just turning on its axis, but also orbiting the Sun. This means we see different stars during the middle of the night at different times of year.
During early January, the Sun is in the direction of the constellation of Sagittarius, while Gemini is visible at midnight.
Six months later, the Earth has moved 180 degress around the Sun. Now the Sun is in the direction of Gemini, while Sagittarius is visible at midnight. The stars and planets we see change as the months go by.
More critically, the seasons and length of day change as we move around the Sun. Earth's axis is tilted with respect to its orbit. Between late September and late March our Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, while the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun for the remainder of the year.
Between late September and late March, the Sun is directly above the tropics of Earth's Southern Hemisphere. Across the Southern Hemisphere, daylight extends beyond 12 hours per day. Indeed, at the South Pole the Sun is above the horizon 24 hours a day. In January, the Southern Hemisphere is basking in summer.
Between late September and late March, the opposite is true in the Northern Hemisphere. Across the Northern Hemisphere, the Sun is relatively low in the sky and daylight is less than 12 hours per day. In January, the Northern Hemisphere is in the depths of winter.
We may not feel the globe spinning and our motion around the Sun, but we can experience it. We spin beneath the stars each night, and as the months pass different stars come into view. Which stars we see changes as we move across the world. And the changing length of the days and seasons are driven by our orbit around the Sun.

According to Discover the World, no month guarantees better sightings, but December to February have the longest hours of darkness whilst in the spring or autumn, the weather conditions are more stable.
One of the best places to see the northern lights, especially for Brits, are countries around the North Pole.
Iceland in the winter is known for the stunning auroras and is one of the most convenient and affordable destinations to visit from the UK.
Sweden is another country where the captivating show is best seen. In particular, the Swedish Lapland where visitors can enjoy a unique experience of staying in an ice hotel whilst watching the northern lights.

The Finnish Lapland is also a popular destination for seeing the auroras.
A stunning white snowy background is set against the showstopper lights, making Finland the ideal spot for snowmobiling, reindeer safaris or sitting in a sauna whilst enjoying the view.
Northern Norway offers dramatic northern light scenes thanks to the wide open spaces and minimal light pollution.
Visitors wanting to experience a polar night should head to Spitsbergen and those just wanting to explore vast open skies should go to North Cape.

The northern provinces of Canada extend deep into the Arctic Circle, making for some fantastic locations to see the northern lights.
Discover the World recommends the town of Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory as the ideal spot as it allows visitors to combine a host of winter activities in the picturesque snowy scenes.
Alaska - most people see it as the place to go for a winter adventure, but it is also one of the greatest places to the auroras. Dalton Highway is the most popular, where visitors can set up camp right beneath the auroral oval.
Greenland has some beautiful spots to view the lights. It is difficult to get to during the winter months but East Greenland during September or between March and April offers some exciting shows in the sky.
It is also claimed that the spaceman tried to use his hand to hide another light that was seen flashing across the earth.
One commentator wrote: “These are some incredible clips, I've never seen any of them.
“How could anyone possibly debunk these?”

The claims were made after the UFO hunters spotted strange flashing lights in a video
Another conspiracy theorist said: "I bet aliens are actually truthful to their people that we 'aliens' do exist while our government lies to us.”
However, Nasa has previously addressed what causes these kinds of lights.
A Nasa spokesperson said: “Reflections from station windows, the spacecraft structure itself or lights from Earth commonly appear as artefacts in photos and videos from the orbiting laboratory.
“Alien' objects near the ISS appears to be a favourite topic among conspiracy theorists who often scour Nasa feeds to find what they believe to be evidence of ET.”
UFO hunters have spotted a new video footage that supposedly shows off aliens intervening and maneuvering humans from their spacecrafts. The UFO was near the ISS and was captured by a GoPro Camera.

UFO hunters are claiming that aliens are monitoring humans on the International Space Station (ISS). Researchers have drawn this conclusion after rare objects were spotted via an astronaut's live camera.
The video which exposes technologically advanced alien species observing ISS in low Earth orbit has gone viral.
"This amazing footage was shot from an astronaut's GoPro while outside the space station this week. The GoPro was hooked up directly with the live Internet link for all to see," shared Scott C. Waring, a well-known UFO blogger.
According to the ET chasers, the footage was taken using a GoPro camera which was mounted outside the ISS. It is here that the alien spacecraft is seen taking an incredible 180-degree turn while flying close to the center.
Revelations By UFO Hunters
An astronaut who was out on a space odyssey captured the video by using a GoPro Camera. The GoPro Camera houses some of the finest features in terms of visual display and audio coverage. The advanced video stabilization lets one capture rare moments like these in the best way possible.
The footage was uploaded by Just Gaz on YouTube on Jan. 5, 2017. Once uploaded, the video became quite popular as it attracted the attention of viewers. However, whether the video is authentic is circumspect.
This is not the first time that UFO hunters have chanced across a mysterious alien intervention close to or having some connect with the ISS.
In July 2016, Tech Times reported that NASA had intentionally cut ISS video feeds as a mysterious object - a UFO - was spotted descending from Space.
In November 2015, an ISS astronaut posted a phot on Twitter which showed off a UFO-like object, spurning UFO hunters into action that it evidenced alien life.
Rumors And Speculations
Skeptics have debunked the claims made by UFO hunters and deem the video farcical. The video footage in their opinion is a mere reflection of light on camera lenses, such as lights from earth, meteors in space or possibly even man-made junk. Some are of the belief that the video is not of aliens but simply debris.
UFO hunters, however, dismiss any such allegations. They believe there is ET life and humans are being watched. They feel it is their duty, as well as that of the government, to not keep people in the dark about these facts.
They stress that humans are not alone in the universe and that the solar system is teeming with ET's who are busy conducting explorations in their advanced spacecrafts. Skeptics, on the other hand, maintain that the footage is inaccurate and merely an image glitch.
Opinions are divided but you can judge for yourself by checking out the video below.

IN BRIEF
Scientists used a device called multi-conjugate adaptive optics, which captures light from different altitudes on Earth’s atmosphere, to see a real-time view of solar activity.
This not only marks the very first time that solar storms were observed in real time by scientists, it also gives us an opportunity to learn more about how solar storms work.

For the first time, scientists were able to get real-time images of the Sun using the world’s highest resolution telescope in Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) in California.
The images, gathered after the telescope was given a critical upgrade, gave researchers the opportunity to view solar activity in real time. A macro view is critical when it comes to observing and understanding solar storms because large flares occur across various points and nearly all at the same time.
According to Philip Goode, a research professor of physics from the New Jersey Institute of Technology:
To understand the fundamental dynamics of the Sun, such as the origin of solar storms, we need to collect data from as wide a field of view as possible. During large flares, for example, magnetic field changes appear to occur at many different places with near simultaneity. Only by seeing the comprehensive array of eruptions all at once will we be able to accurately […] analyze the forces that propel the star’s magnetic fields to twist around each other until they explode, spewing massive amounts of radiation and particles that, when directed earthward, can cause disruptive space weather.
The team used a device called multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO), which captures light from different altitudes on Earth’s atmosphere via three mirrors, guided by cameras capturing images at two thousand frames per second. To accommodate the Earth’s atmospheric light distortions, the mirrors adjust to provide a corrected and real-time view of solar activity. The result was a view three times wider than what was possible before this upgrade.
“Over the years, we had reconfigured the mirrors scores of times, waiting for that ‘Wow!’ moment,” Finally, late last July, we saw what we had long sought – a continuous stream of sharp, wide-field corrected, but essentially identical images,” he adds.
REAL-TIME SCIENCE
This not only marks the very first time that solar storms were observed in real time by scientists, it also gives us an opportunity to learn more about how solar storms work. Solar storms are large explosions that take place in the Sun’s atmosphere. Once the radiation and particles from the storm interact with Earth’s magnetic field, they can cause a geomagnetic storm that can wreak havoc on critical technologies.
A world like ours, where everything runs on electricity and is dependent on the reliability of our telecommunications systems, is particularly vulnerable to geomagnetic storms, as they could kill the Earth’s power grid and shut down telecommunication systems for years.
Having the ability to observe the solar flares simultaneously thus gives scientists the chance to “accurately measure the size, strength, and sequencing of these magnetic events,” says Goode.
A jetpack is finally looking for its first civilian test pilot but only the "well qualified" need apply to ensure safety.
The pack can take a ride up to 914 meters (3,000 feet) but only for a short period of five to ten minutes.

The New Wave of Personal Flight
In November, we wrote about a jetpack that was being made available to the general public – well, for those who have $250,000 to spare.
It’s called the JB-10, and it was fabricated by Jetpack Aviation. A month prior, CEO David Mayman successfully flew the jetpack off the coast of Monaco.
Regarding specs, this jetpack comes packed with twin jet engines and 7 percent more power than it’s former JB-9 model. It can ascend to 305 meters (1,000 ft) per minute and lasts about 5 to 10 minutes per ride.
“It’s like a Segway,” Mayman described. “If you want to go forward, you just lean forward. If you want to stop, you just lean back. It’s incredibly simple. If you wanted to fly a helicopter, you’d need 150 hours of training — but with this, you can learn everything you need to know in about 3 hours.”
Ready to buy one? Not just yet. The JB-10 might be available for consumers, but only to “well-qualified buyers.” It’s a company tactic to prevent people from flying recklessly. So they announced a contest to award one lucky person the special opportunity to test fly the JB-10 as Jetpack Aviation’s first civilian guinea pig. This is an incredible occasion, knowing that Mayman is the only one to have flown one as of yet.
Mayman hopes to include safety training for potential customers as part of the sales process in the near future. If this civilian flight is successful, it will pave the way for a new era of personal flight. Also on his radar is an all-electric jetpack that will be used to train test pilots without the gas-guzzling feature.
WANT MORE JETPACK IDEAS?
Other options for a good time in the air include BW-Air, a golf cart jetpack that was released by the Martin Aircraft Company. It can rise up to 914 meters (3,000 feet), and can reach speeds of up to 46 mph (74 km/hr). Only hurdles: a mere $200,000 and a permit to ride from authorities.
Martin Aircraft Company also engaged in another project, partnering with Dubai officials in order to tackle the issue of fighting fires from skyscrapers. These jetpacks accelerate up to speeds of 75 km/hr (46 mph) and can reach up to 914 meters (3,000 feet). That’s slightly taller than the Burj Khalifa.
With all these technological advancements, what will they come up with next? We’re excited to find out.
Astronauts on board the International Space Station are hiding evidence of aliens.
At least that's the latest wild claim made by a group of UFO hunters who believe they have spotted strange flashing lights near the ISS.
The 'mystery lights' were seen in video uploaded by conspiracy theorist group Secure 10.

Astronauts are hiding evidence of aliens. At least that's the latest wild claim made by a group of UFO hunters who believe they have spotted mystery flashing lights near the ISS. When the glowing lights appear, the astronaut places his hand in front of the camera, Secure 10 claims
They claim it was filmed from the ISS by an astronaut filming the view of Earth from outer space.
When the glowing lights appear, the astronaut places his hand in front of the camera, Secure 10 claims.
A similar 'cover up' takes place when a light is seen crossing Earth. At around the same time, the astronaut covers the camera with his hand.
One commentator wrote: 'These are some incredible clips, I've never seen any of them.
'How could anyone possibly debunk these?'
While it isn't always possible to determine exactly what these objects are during the brief period they appear in the stream, there are a number possible explanations for these types of sightings.
Is this proof astronauts on the ISS are hiding evidence of UFOs?
When the glowing lights (circled) appear, the astronaut places his hand in front of the camera, Secure 10 claims.
In the past, a Nasa spokesperson has explained, 'Reflections from station windows, the spacecraft structure itself or lights from Earth commonly appear as artefacts in photos and videos from the orbiting laboratory.'
'Alien' objects near the ISS appears to be a favourite topic among conspiracy theorists who often scour Nasa feeds to find what they believe to be evidence of ET.
In November, a fast-moving object was spotted flying by the International Space Station moments before its livestream went dead.
BELIEVE IN CONSPIRACY THEORIES? YOU'RE PROBABLY A NARCISSIST
People who doubt the moon landings are more likely to be selfish and attention-seeking, according to a study earlier this year.
Over the course of three online-based studies, researchers at the University of Kent showed strong links between the belief in conspiracy theories and negative psychological traits.
In the first study, a total of 202 participants completed questionnaires on conspiracy beliefs, asking how strongly they agreed with specific statements, such as whether governments carried out acts of terrorism on their own soil.
Alongside this, they were asked to complete a narcissist scale and a self-esteem assessment.
The results showed that those people who rated highly on the narcissism scale and who had low self-esteem were more likely to be conspiracy believers.
Conspiracy theorists argued this provided evidence that Nasa is covering up proof of a UFO.
In the footage from the ISS channel uploaded to YouTube by user ColdPyro, a white speck can be seen emerging from the darkness just above Earth's horizon.
Before the 'UFO' travels out of view, the feed cuts to a grey screen, followed by a statement asking users to 'please stand by' due to technical issues.
ISS feed cut off as possible UFO flies by space station
This was found on the official ISS channel it appears a UFO comes into frame and the feed it then immediately cut,' wrote YouTuber ColdPyro.
The object in question can only be seen for a moment – it emerges around the 5-second mark, just to the left of center
in the frame, and then the feed cuts out to grey just two seconds later.
A blue screen follows this, and then a statement: 'Please stand by. The High Definition Earth Viewing experiment is either switching cameras, or we are experiencing a temporary loss of signal with the International Space Station.'
This isn't the first time UFO hunters have spotted something strange near the ISS.

NASA has been accused of covering up evidence of aliens – literally – after an astronaut appeared to block a video of UFOs.
An astronaut was filming his work on the International Space Station when a series of mysterious lights were seen above Earth.
Each time one of the unidentified flying objects passed in front of the camera, the spaceman appeared to cover the lens with his hand.

FLY PAST: A UFO flies past the International Space Station
“Caught out NASA!”

Conspiracy theorists claim the footage proves NASA is hiding proof of extraterrestrial life.
Tyler, from UFO hunting group Secure Team – which posted the clip on YouTube – said: “We have an astronaut working on the International Space Station where we not only see a UFO fly overhead but we are also going to see the astronaut attempt to hide this activity by putting his hand in front of the camera.
The “truther” said: “Virtually every time that there has been a video camera in space, it almost never fails that we get a perfect example of what I have called in the past a literal highway of activity.
“By that I mean unidentified objects that are not part of the ISS or the shuttle, have nothing to do with the astronauts up there – but have been seen flying by at a distance, manoeuvring, making turns, changing velocity and we’ll say doing everything that satellites don’t do.”

THE 1947 RICHARD BYRD EXPEDITION TO ANTARTICA: CLUES TO RECENT HEIGHTENED INTEREST FOR THIS CONTINENT?
THE 1947 RICHARD BYRD EXPEDITION TO ANTARTICA: CLUES TO RECENT HEIGHTENED INTEREST FOR THIS CONTINENT?
Recently there has been a lot of news reports of strange sightings at Antartica and there seems to be a high interest in the continent from lots of high profiled people.
Pyramides have been spotted on Google Earth, pictures of UFO above the ice have emerged,... It seems that strange things are happening at Antartica at an increasing pace.
Maybe if we dive into history we'll find an explanation for recent events.
Richard Evelyn Byrd, Jr., (October 25, 1888 – March 11, 1957) was an American naval officer who specialized in feats of exploration. He was a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the highest honor for valor given by the United States, and was a pioneering American aviator, polar explorer, and organizer of polar logistics.
In 1947 he flew directly to the North Pole with his plane. Some believe that instead of going over the pole, he actually entered the Inner Earth. His diary reports of his experience of entering the hollow interior of the Earth, and traveling 1700 miles over mountains, lakes, glaciers, rivers, green vegetation and animal life.
Admiral Byrd stated that the North and South Poles were actually only two of many openings to the center of Earth.
Admiral Byrd also stated that the inner Earth has an inner Sun. His theory and that of earlier scientists, is that the poles of the Earth are convex, rather than concave. Ships and planes could float or fly into an opening.
US NAVY'S SECRET SPACE PROGRAM & NORDIC EXTRATERRESTRIAL ALLIANCE
US NAVY'S SECRET SPACE PROGRAM & NORDIC EXTRATERRESTRIAL ALLIANCE
Will disclosure take place to bring about a better future for all of us? There is extraordinary hope in our midst. The Los Angeles Air Raid on February 24/25, 1942 opened an unprecedented chapter in the evolution of the U.S. Navy.
In response to this incident, a covert research program to investigate the feasibility of exotic antigravity propulsion technologies was developed.
Navy operatives learn about the nazi advanced saucer programs, and they discovered the Nazis were receiving assistance from two extraterrestrial groups.
The Washington Post reports, “As proof that aliens were secretly behind the Nazis, the report explains that Germany built hundreds of submarines toward the end of the war, far more than would have been possible with mere human technology.”
Nordics are typically described as six to seven feet tall with long blond hair and blue eyes, and are commonly reported as being female. Their skin is said to range from fair colored to tanned, and they are sometimes reported to wear skintight clothing. Purported contactees claim to have witnessed the Nords beaming down from gold or silver colored crescent-shaped UFOs or from gigantic bright cigar-shaped UFOs.
The Huygens Probe landed on the surface of Titan in January of 2005, after a 7 year journey.
This movie was created with data collected by the Huygens Descent Imager, and depicts the view from Huygens during the last few hours of it's descent. The mission was a joint effort between NASA and The European Space Agency.
It was the first time the surface of Titan was seen in visible light. These are the only surface images ever taken of a body so far away from the sun.
As the probe plunges through the moon's hazy atmosphere and the strange alien landscape is revealed,an anomalous feature can be seen. It's odd shape captures our attention. At first it seems as if it could be a cave, closer inspection however shows that it is a stand alone structure in what appears to be a clearing.
The moon's atmosphere is hazy and the imager is taking images in motion making it difficult to see. As the object gets closer, we zoom in on it to explore further. Once a good visual is established we can clearly see that the object looks like a tent. A white tent with two beings standing outside of it to the right.
They look very much like alien grey's with large bulbous heads and long arms. . They even appear to be clothed, with the taller one wearing white and the small one wearing red.
Perhaps the small one is a child. There are objects in the interior of the tent.
A tent on a grassy clearing. With two very human looking figures. Does life thrive throught the universe? Has it taken a similar course on other planetary bodies within our solar system and elsewhere? Or is it possible that we have never left earth?
Recently a video appeared that shows a US predator drone an a mission that is being attacked by a UFO.
The drone was flying true a landscape of high mountains when it suddenly notices a unknown object. The drone starts to track the drone untill it gets out of sight.
The predator drone tries to track the object but the UFO decides it's time to shut down the drown. It seems to shoot some sort of energy beam towards the drone and the video stream gets messed up.
The object appears to be pretty small but it does not want to be tracked by the drone.
The weapon used by the UFO seems to be some sort of energy weapon. It does not stop the drone from working, but it clearly affects the video capabilities of the drone.
It's not clear what the source of this video is.
By the look of the drone interface, it seems to be a recent military drone.
According to multiple sources this footage was leaked to the public. No other information could be found on the origin of this video.

UFO at Space Station, Appears out of nowhere, then camera follows it, Jan 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: January 14, 2017
Location of sighting: Earths orbit at space station (ISS)
This glowing orb, when enlarged actually looks like a square with an aura of light around it. The camera begins to move toward the light, pauses, then continues past as if the camera guy is trying not to let others know he sees the UFO, but its really obvious he did. Scott C. Waring-Taiwan Streetcap1 states: NASA spotted this appearing and started to move the camera slowly to the right. Whatever it was it has not reappeared to the best of my knowledge. Date 14 January, 2017. Streetcap1.
