"Breakthrough?" --Magnetic Fields May Reveal Evidence of Dark Matter
"Breakthrough?" --Magnetic Fields May Reveal Evidence of Dark Matter
Dark matter is needed to explain the motions of galaxies and some of the current theories of galaxy formation and evolution. For example, the galaxy that contains our solar system, the Milky Way, seems to be enveloped by a much larger halo of dark matter. Its halo is quite different from the one we draw behind angels; it is actually invisible, but its existence is inferred through its effects on the motions of stars and gases.
Scientists at the Center for Axion and Precision Physics Research (CAPP), within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have optimized some of the characteristics of a magnet to hunt for one possible component of dark matter called axion.
Although it sounds hard to believe, everything we see with our naked eyes or through microscopes and telescopes accounts for just 4% of the known Universe. The rest comprises dark energy (69%) and dark matter (27%). Although there seems to be more dark matter than visible matter in the Universe, we still have not been able to directly detect it. The reason is that dark matter does not emit light or absorb electromagnetic waves, so it is really hard to observe.
Although dark matter particles have not been detected so far, scientists know that these particles have a very small mass and are distributed throughout the Universe. One dark matter particle candidate is the axion. Axions have extremely weak interactions with matter and so scientists need special equipment to catch their presence. Specifically, scientists use the so-called axion to two-photons coupling technique, which takes advantage of the fact that an axion passing through a strong magnetic field can interact with a photon and convert into another photon. To record this interaction, IBS scientists are in the process of building haloscopes in Daejeon in South Korea.
Haloscopes contain resonant cavities immersed in extra-strong magnetic field. "In simple terms, you can image the resonant cavity as a cylinder, like a soft drink can, where the energy of the photons generated from the axions-photons interaction is amplified," explains KO Byeong Rok, first author of this study.
The magnets used for these types of experiments so far have the shape of a coil wound into a helix, technically known as a solenoid. However, depending on the height of the magnet, there is the risk of losing the signal coming from the axion-photon interaction. For this reason, IBS scientists decided to look deeper into another type of magnets shaped like donuts, called toroidal magnets.
"Magnets are the most important feature of the haloscope, and also the most expensive. While other experiments seeking to detect dark matter around the world use solenoid magnets, we are the first to try to use toroidal magnets. Since it has never been used before, you cannot easily buy the equipment, so we develop it ourselves," explains Professor Ko.
In order to hunt the axion, scientists need to get out in front of it, and predict the magnitude of the electromagnetic energy expected from the axion-to-photon conversion. Electromagnetic energy is due to the sum of electric and magnetic energies. Both of them can be easily calculated for a solenoid magnet, but if the magnet is toroidal shaped, it is practically impossible to calculate the magnetic energy analytically. Because of this, it was believed that toroidal magnets could not be used for the haloscope.
This paper from IBS shows the opposite. Starting from an adjusted version of the Maxwell equation, which defines how charged particles give rise to electric and magnetic forces. Scientists found that electric energy and magnetic energy from the axion-photon interaction are equal in both types of magnets. Therefore, even though the magnetic energy of a toroidal magnet is unknown, in order to obtain the electromagnetic energy which is the sum of the two, it is possible to double up the electric energy and obtain the magnetic energy.
Another finding is that the energy emitted from the interaction and conversion of the axion to photon is independent from the position of the cavity inside a solenoid magnet. However, this is not the case for toroid magnets.
IBS CAPP scientists have nicknamed the toroidal cavity "CAPPuccino submarine" because its color resembles the beverage, and its particular shape. All the theoretical findings published in this paper are going to form a solid background for the development and prototyping of new machines for the search of dark matter.
“Wat getuigen van de Roswell-crash zeggen doet je de rillingen over de rug lopen”
“Wat getuigen van de Roswell-crash zeggen doet je de rillingen over de rug lopen”
In 1947 kwam er een UFO neer bij het plaatsje Roswell in New Mexico. Was er sprake van een cover-up? MUFON-directeur Jan Harzan laat in een gesprek met zakenblad Forbes zijn licht over de zaak schijnen.
Op de vraag waarom overheden zo geheimzinnig doen over de mogelijkheid van buitenaards bezoek antwoordt Harzan:
“Eén mogelijke reden is dat ze geloven dat de wereldbevolking niet klaar is voor een dergelijke onthulling. Een andere mogelijkheid is dat zoiets zou leiden tot grootschalige paniek, een beurscrash en het einde van religie.”
Tijdreizen
“Er wordt ook gezegd dat de technologieën waarover deze wezens beschikken zo geavanceerd zijn – denk aan sneller reizen dan het licht of tijdreizen – dat ze een bedreiging vormen voor de nationale veiligheid, helemaal als ze in vijandige handen vallen,” voegde hij toe.
Volgens Harzan is het Roswellincident geen hoax. “UFO-onderzoeker Stanton Friedman interviewde 30 getuigen van Roswell,” zei hij.
Jan Harzan (MUFON)
“Wat zij vertellen in Recollections of Roswell doet je de rillingen over de rug lopen,” ging hij verder. “Ik kan je vertellen dat het geen weerballon was.”
Landingsgestel
Harzan zag naar eigen zeggen als kind zelf een UFO. “Ik was 10 jaar oud en zag met mijn jongere broer Jeff een vaartuig landen in onze achtertuin,” zei hij.
“Het bevond zich op 10 meter afstand van ons en hing slechts een paar meter boven de grond,” ging hij verder.
“Het maakte een zoemend geluid en bevatte een landingsgestel met vier poten,” aldus Harzan. “Het was een levensveranderende ervaring.”
Uniek
Volgens hem laten de ruim 100.000 dossiers op de website van MUFON zien dat we worden bezocht door aliens.
“Waarom weten we niet,” zei hij. “Misschien omdat onze planeet uniek is in ons zonnestelsel omdat zij voor drie kwart uit water bestaat.”
“Daarnaast hebben we veel zeldzame metalen,” zei Harzan. “Wellicht zien ze onze planeet als een vakantiebestemming. Of ze willen ons gewoon observeren.”
NASA Spotted 70 Mile Long Crack Splitting Antarctica – Edgar Cayce Predictions Coming True?
NASA Spotted 70 Mile Long Crack Splitting Antarctica – Edgar Cayce Predictions Coming True?
A massive crack in the Antarctic ice shelf could be the first sign that the predictions of Edgar Cayce are starting to come true.
You can’t deny climate change unless you’re a fan of ignoring the thawing elephant in the room holding a ticking time bomb in its trunk. For decades, scientists have known about what’s coming, their voices silenced and drowned out by money and the true rulers of this world. But if we’re to give credence to the predictions of Edgar Cayce, the signs might have come even earlier.
At the beginning of the last century, American mystic Edgar Cayce began using his clairvoyant powers to uncover details about our planet’s hidden past. But the controversial personality also claimed to be able to peer int the future and what he saw did not bode well for mankind. He claimed that in a relatively short period of time, our world will change, ultimately ending up as a place beyond recognition. He wrote:
“The earth will be broken up in many places. The early portion will see a change in the physical aspect of the west coast of America. There will appear open waters in the northern portions of Greenland.
There will be seen new lands of the Caribbean Sea. South America will be shaken from the uppermost portion to the end; and in the Antarctic off Tierra del Fuego there will be land, and a strait with rushing waters.”
Is this giant crack proof of the predictions of Edgar Cayce? Are they finally coming true?
Recently, NASA spotted a crack in the frozen continent.
The fracture was photographed on November 10 as part of Operation IceBridge, an airborne survey of Antarctic ice. The survey has been tracking the change in the South Pole due to the devastating effects of global warming.
Located in the Larsen C region, the crevasse now measures 70 miles in length and is slowly extending. The fragmentation of the Antarctic is obvious in satellite imagery and data shows large chunks of ice constantly breaking up and drifting away. If this new crack will reach the ocean and separate Larsen C from the rest of the ice shelf, a new iceberg with a surface area of over 6,500 square miles will have formed. When this melts, global ocean levels could see a raise of 0.8 to 2 meters (2.6-6.5 feet).
When there is first the breaking up of some conditions in the South Sea and those as apparent as the sinking or rising of that which is almost opposite it, or in the Mediterranean, and the Aetna area, then we may know it has begun.
– Edgar Cayce
This is yet another sign that the antarctic ice is melting and sea levels will undoubtedly rise, wreaking havoc on coastal regions. Weather patterns are going to get more unpredictable and freaky. Considering the current state our world is in, just imagine what global hurricanes and severe storms would do…

Colombia: Mysterious Phenomenon in the Skies Northeast of Antioquía
Residents of Segovia and Remedios were bewildered around 9 o'clock in the evening by a phenomenon looking like a static red fireball in the middle of the dark sky.
This region of Northeastern Antioquía is rich not only in gold, but also in stories of witchcraft and sorcerers, so local residents would find nothing odd in having a "supernatural" force making itself visible.
Yen Milea Bran, who took photos and made cellphone recordings like many others, said that her family and neighbors took to the streets - in the La Cruzada district in Remedios - to see a sort of "very bright star" that hung in the heavens for some three minutes before disappearing,.
"It looked like a very large, shining star, lighting everything around it. But when recorded with the cellphone, it wasn't captured the way one's eyes perceived it. It looked like a fireball and in some images it displayed hypnotic circles," added the young woman.
Many hypotheses have been put forth about the phenomenon, which had never been seen in the skies of northeastern Antioquía.
"Many say it could be a UFO. Others say it could be a portal to another world. Others say it is surely a sign that the end is near and that we should repent, and others say that it has something to do with astronomy, that a star had surely exploded into a fireball," Yen Milenia explained.
The images have already been inspected in the Planetarium of Antioquía’s capital city, and have yet to ascertain its true nature. Angela Perez, the astronomical coordinator, noted that the possibilities range from unidentified flying objects, to an optic phenomenon with the lens or a fire balloon.
"Objects that cannot be identified are UFOs. However, the term is generally associated with spaceships and other things, but this cannot be said to be the answer until any other possibility has been discarded. Let's say that given the image's brightness, it could be one of those little balloons that get sent aloft with a candle inside," Pérez explained.
The fact of the matter is that some residents intend to be vigilant these days to see if the mysterious phenomenon stages a return.

Drone Tests New Tech to Help FAA Track Commercial Spacecraft
Drone Tests New Tech to Help FAA Track Commercial Spacecraft

A drone that drops into flight from a high-altitude balloon is helping the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to test new technologies for surveillance of commercial spacecraft in national airspace.
Near Space Corporation (NSC), a private spaceflight company that operates at the Tillamook Naval Air Station in Oregon, sent its High Altitude Shuttle System (HASS) into flight using a stratospheric balloon on Oct. 3. The unmanned drone, which regularly carries new technologies for in-flight testing, brought along a payload of equipment designed to help the FAA detect and track commercial spacecraft.
The stratospheric balloon lifted HASS to an altitude of 70,000 feet (21,336 meters) before releasing it for a semiautonomous glide flight that simulated how a winged spacecraft would enter Class A-controlled airspace, which includes altitudes over 18,000 feet (5,486 m) and up to 60,000 feet (18,288 m).
Near Space Corp. launched this high-altitude balloon carrying a drone with a special payload of new FAA technologies from an FAA test site in Tillamook, Oregon.

It took about 30 minutes for the drone to return to its launch site. During that time, the FAA tracked the drone to test its new surveillance technology. Although the results of this flight test are still being analyzed, plans for similar experiment are underway.
This flight test made NSC the first commercial suborbital space company to fly under the FAA's new Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) rules that went into effect in August. Regulations now require drone pilots to have a special Certificate of Authorization (COA) for flying at high altitudes.
"It was great to get this first flight with the new COA under our belt," Near Space CEO Tim Lachenmeier said in a statement. "It took a long time, and a lot of dedicated support from the FAA to get this accomplished. NSC is very excited about the opportunities this high-altitude UAS COA provides, and the unprecedented ability to support testing of technologies for the commercial space industry."
NASA funded the balloon-aided drone flight through its Flight Opportunities Program, which supports the use of commercial suborbital vehicles to test new technologies.
"Flight testing and advancing technologies needed by the FAA to allow detection and surveillance of future spacecraft while entering the national airspace is crucial for the Flight Opportunities program," Paul De Leon, NASA'S Flight Opportunities campaign manager, said in the statement. "The program is continuing to grow by adding new commercial suborbital launch vehicles as they become viable, which can increase opportunities for maturing technologies much needed for future space exploration."
There’s a potentially habitable planetary system just 14 light-years away from Earth — a big distance, sure, but just a stone’s throw away in cosmic terms. It hosts a planet that’s surprisingly similar to Earth — raising high hopes that it could be potentially habitable to life.
When many people think about potential nearby planets that could sustain life, Proxima b comes to mind. Orbiting nearby star Proxima Centauri, Proxima b is just over four light-years away from our planet. Its discovery last year sent shockwaves through the astronomy community.
But a star called Wolf 1061 is just a bit further, and it has three super-Earths in its orbit. A team of researchers have been hard at work conducting in-depth studies of this planetary system, and are about to publish their new findings in an upcoming issue of The Astrophysical Journal.
“The Wolf 1061 system is important because it is so close and that gives other opportunities to do follow-up studies to see if it does indeed have life,” San Francisco State University astronomer Stephen Kane, who led the research team, said in a news release.
When scientists look for planets with life, they look for a planet with similar properties of Earth, meaning that they orbit in a zone that’s perfect for life. If it’s too close to the star, it will be too hot to sustain life. But if it’s too far, it will be too cold. That’s why it’s sometimes referred to as the Goldilocks zone.
One of the planets in the Wolf 1061 system, called Wolf 1061c, is rocky and is within the “Goldilocks zone.” Unfortunately, it resides on the inner edge of this zone, closer to the star — so it might instead have an atmosphere that’s more similar to Venus.
“It’s close enough to the star where it’s looking suspiciously like a runaway greenhouse,” Kane said.
What he means by “runaway greenhouse” is that some scientists believe Venus once had oceans, but the planet became so hot that the water evaporated. The water vapor made the planet even hotter, further exacerbating an increasingly inhospitable environment.
Wolf 1061c’s orbit also changes at a faster rate, unlike Earth. The changes in climate are probably much more extreme and rapid — for example, the planet might often freeze over or heat up.
It’s possible that Wolf 1061c might contain life — but we won’t know for sure until we’re able to study it with better technology. Hopefully, Kane and his colleagues’ findings persuade the astronomy community to develop more advanced instruments to investigate the planet and others like it in better detail.
Last week, NASA shared an absolutely jaw-dropping video of a probe’s descent and landing on Saturn’s moon, Titan. We haven’t landed anything like that probe, Huygens, on the far-out former planet Pluto yet, but NASA came up with the next best thing — video simulating a “landing” on the distant world pulled together from photographs the New Horizons mission snapped during its flyby.
New Horizons offered us an unprecedented view of Pluto when it flew past it in the summer of 2015. NASA unveiled a bevy of detailed, stunning maps and pictures from that flyby on Thursday. The “landing” video is a neat little experience, but putting it together wasn’t so simple. NASA explains on its websitethat experts had to stitch more than 100 images together to create a fairly seamless video out of the pictures New Horizons took over the course of six weeks.
“To create a movie that makes viewers feel as if they’re diving into Pluto, mission scientists had to interpolate some of the panchromatic (black and white) frames based on what they know Pluto looks like to make it as smooth and seamless as possible,” NASA explains. “Low-resolution color from the Ralph color camera aboard New Horizons was then draped over the frames to give the best available, actual color simulation of what it would look like to descend from high altitude to Pluto’s surface.”
Watch the full video, which starts with a distant view of Pluto and its moon Charon, and ends on an extreme closeup of that big ol’ heart, right here.
Did a UFO give Uri Geller magical powers when he was three years old? It sounds crazy but in fact, an air force captain saw it all - and confirmed every detail
Did a UFO give Uri Geller magical powers when he was three years old? It sounds crazy but in fact, an air force captain saw it all - and confirmed every detail
On Saturday, in our exclusive serialisation of Uri Geller's biography, we told how the CIA's bid to turn him into a psychic weapon backfired because he was such a show-off. Today, in the final part, we reveal how a UFO unlocked his talents...
When freelance CIA investigator Dr Andrija Puharich met Uri Geller in 1971, the young Israeli psychic had one driving ambition.
And it had nothing to do with spies or science.
‘I want to be famous,’ insisted Uri, who had grown up in poverty in the backstreets of Tel Aviv.
‘I want to be successful. If you want to work with me, you will have to deal with my need for fame and fortune.’
Contacts in the Israeli military told Puharich that this ‘unabashed egomaniac’ was not worth his trouble.
Uri Geller, pictured, had a 'need for fame and fortune' which ended any real chance of working for the CIA, a biography has revealed
Geller, pictured as a child, centre, with his mother Manzy, left, and dog Joker, right, in Nicosia, Cyrpus
Uri had been a celebrity in his home country, after prime minister Golda Meir joked on the radio about his talent for predicting the future.
But his fame was already on the wane and he was reduced to bending spoons and reading minds on stage in tawdry nightclubs.
‘You know, we have a word for a kid like Uri — putz, a punk,’ one friend told Puharich. ‘He really is insufferable.’
But early tests left Puharich convinced there was far more to the young man than his outrageous ego.
At the sixth-floor apartment that the eccentric Serbian-American scientist had rented, close to the Mediterranean coast north of Tel Aviv, he conducted basic paranormal exercises. The results stunned him.
Uri could accurately pick up three-digit numbers from Puharich’s mind when the men were in different rooms. And he could deflect a compass needle by thought.
For some reason, they discovered, this effect was strongest when Uri wrapped a rubber band tightly around his wrist as a tourniquet.
One result that fascinated Puharich was Uri’s ability to bend a thin stream of water from a tap, by holding his hand a few centimetres away.
This is easily done with an electrically charged piece of plastic, such as a comb, but with just a finger it was unprecedented.
They noted this effect failed when his finger was wet.
Another test Puharich devised was to see if Uri could direct a beam of energy narrowly or if he produced a random, scattergun effect.
He laid out five matchsticks in a row on a glass plate monitored by a film camera.
Using psychokinesis —purely mindpower, without physical contact — Uri was able to move whichever matchstick he chose by up to an inch and a quarter. But after a few weeks of this, Uri was getting bored.
In his early days Geller, pictured, was described as arrogant
One night after dinner at a restaurant, and despite Puharich’s protests, he gave a reckless display of driving blindfolded — three miles on hilly roads, at speeds of 50 mph.
At one point, behind the wheel and apparently unable to see anything, Uri announced that a red Peugeot was approaching on the other side of the road.
Moments later, from around a sharp bend, a red Peugeot appeared.
Perplexed and shaken, Puharich tried to persuade Uri to demonstrate his powers in less flamboyant, self-destructive ways.
He urged the arrogant young psychic to go under hypnotism and try talking about his gifts and how they worked.
It was Uri’s turn to be sceptical. He was immune to hypnotism, he said. But on November 30, 1971, after a late-night cabaret performance at a tatty club called Zorba’s, he agreed to lie down on Puharich’s living-room sofa and close his eyes, while the scientist counted backwards from 25.
By the time the count reached 18, Uri was in a deep trance. He began to talk of fragmented childhood memories.
And what he described was stranger than any Hollywood movie.
Uri Geller was born in a Tel Aviv hospital on December 20, 1946. His mother Margaret had already been pregnant eight times and on each occasion had an abortion.
Her husband Tibor, a soldier, was adamant that he did not want children. He was from Hungarian Jewish and gypsy stock, Margaret from the well-to-do Freud family of Vienna: the psychiatrist Sigmund Freud was a distant cousin.
Defying her husband, Margaret kept their ninth child, though her decision nearly broke up the marriage.
Tibor was a philanderer and often left his wife and son for long periods to fend for themselves.
Devastatingly handsome and impeccably uniformed, Tibor paraded with a series of girlfriends while his wife worked long hours as a seamstress to pay the bills.
As a baby, Uri was almost killed by stray bullets during the street fighting in Tel Aviv that preceded Israeli independence in 1948.
Though he was only a few months old, in his pram next to the living room window of his parents’ flat, Uri recalled it vividly: ‘I remember the glass falling almost in slow motion.
Geller, pictured during his early career, claims to have been hit by a 'beam of light' when he was growing up in Israel aged three
‘My mother had put a little teddy bear next to me in the pram, and somehow it rolled over my face and saved me.’
As a toddler, he spent most of each day outside on the street without any supervision.
When he was barely three, on Christmas Day 1949, he had an extraordinary encounter that he would remember vividly for the rest of his life.
Opposite the Geller flat there was an old Arabic house on the corner of Yehuda Halevi Boulevard.
It was surrounded by a rusty iron fence and, attracted by the sound of kittens mewing, the young Uri slipped inside. The tall grass towered over him.
Telling the story to friends over the years, his account never varied: ‘I felt something above me and looked up. I saw a ball of light.
‘It wasn’t the sun — it was something more massive, something that you could touch.
‘It was really weird, like a sphere, just hanging there, shining and strobing, and then it gently and silently drifted down towards the ground.
‘Then something struck me. It was like a beam or ray of light. It really hit my forehead and knocked me back into the grass.’
Picking himself up, he ran home and tried to tell his mother what had happened. She refused to believe him.
But when he recounted the adventure under hypnosis on Andrija Puharich’s couch in 1971, an incredible new detail emerged.
This time, he described the light as a large, shining bowl from which a figure appeared — faceless, but exuding what Uri said was a ‘general radiance’.
The figure raised its arms above its head so it appeared to be holding the sun and then became so bright that Uri passed out.
When he came out of his hypnotic trance, Uri listened to the recording of his session with Puharich.
The entertainer said the moment he was struck by the beam of light was 'the moment his powers were activated'
He claimed not to remember anything he had said — and when his voice on the tape began to describe the events in the Arabic garden, he became frightened and agitated.
Ejecting the cassette, he rushed out of the apartment. It was half an hour before Puharich found him, dazed and motionless ‘like a standing mummy’.
To Uri Geller, the moment he was struck by the beam of light was the moment his powers were activated.
Whether the phenomenon was purely physical (ball lightning, for example) or something paranormal and even extraterrestrial, it changed his life forever.
But bizarre and unique as it was, the story was unverified. Even the account he gave under hypnosis proved nothing.
That was to change more than 35 years later when a credible witness came forward, out of the blue, to say he had witnessed what happened.
In 2007, having seen a TV documentary about the star that talked about his strange childhood experience, retired Israeli reserve air force captain Ya’akov Avrahami contacted Uri to tell him he had been walking to the bus stop on Yehuda Halevi Boulevard on Christmas Day 1949.
‘Suddenly, I saw a powerful light, a sphere-shaped light, a metre in diameter, bright and dazzling,’ he said.
‘At the same moment, I noticed from the building on the left a small child coming out, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers.
'The light halted again and, as if it had senses, it suddenly turned around and approached the child. The light embraced him.’
Then, he said, the boy ran to an apartment building, with the light following him.
When he went through the door, the light apparently exploded on the side of the building, leaving a black residue.
‘After being told all these years that it was my imagination or that I was hallucinating, for this man to come forward was a very emotional thing for me,’ says Uri.
‘The way he described me as a little boy, with the white shirt and black trousers, which is how my mother always dressed me — that convinced me he was not lying.’
A few days after the strange encounter with sphere of light in the Arabic garden, Uri and his mother were eating soup at their kitchen table when the stem of his spoon suddenly drooped and deposited a splash of hot liquid in his lap. Margaret inspected the spoon.
‘It must be loose,’ she decided. Even at the age of three, Uri thought that was odd — spoons don’t get ‘loose’.
Geller, pictured, joined up with the Israeli Army paratroopers but was wounded in action during the Six Day War of 1967
After he started school, his father gave him a watch. Bored in class, he would stare at the hands. One day, he saw them leap forward, whirling round on their own.
He shouted out ‘Look at this watch!’ and learned his first hard lesson about sceptics — his classmates refused to believe him and laughed at his claim.
Angry and embarrassed, young Uri decided he must have a ‘weird watch’ and refused to wear it.
Saving her pennies from her work as a needlewoman, his mother bought him another watch, a better one.
This time when he stared at it, the hands bent upwards and hit the glass cover.
His father was angry, but Margaret was not: she had seen metal bend in the presence of her son and decided to regard it as a special talent, not a curse.
The marriage was disintegrating, and aged ten, Uri was sent to live on a kibbutz near Ashdod, which specialised in children from broken homes.
Friends from those days remember his eerie ability to foretell the future.
One day he announced in class that ‘something terrible’ was going to happen in the wheat fields.
The next day, a military jet missed the runway of the neighbouring airbase and crash-landed in the corn.
When Margaret remarried, to a former concert pianist called Ladislas, she reclaimed her son from the kibbutz and they moved to Cyprus to run a motel in Nicosia.
The Pension Ritz catered to actors and nightclub performers, and Uri was attracted to their lifestyle.
He discovered that by bending spoons and moving the hands of watches, he could win their applause.
But within a year his stepfather died and, with civil war on the island, Uri was sent to a school in the hills run by monks.
At this Christian establishment, he was known as George Geller.
Teachers started to notice his abilities. He never seemed to work hard, but he got consistently high marks in exams, even in subjects that he didn’t appear to understand.
Oddly, his exam papers often mirrored those of the top students — even mimicking their mistakes.
Accused of copying, Uri denied cheating, but admitted that he could look at the back of a classmate’s head and see what they were writing.
He didn’t mean to do it, he said — the words appeared, as if on a TV screen in his mind.
He also revealed a talent on the basketball court. When he threw the ball, it would swerve in mid air and the hoop seemed almost to lean towards it.
Teacher Joy Philipou said: ‘He could shoot from almost anywhere. He never missed the basket.
'I thought it must be my imagination, but several people began to talk about it. In truth, it was scary.’
By the time he was 18, Uri was eager for army service and was desperate to make his soldier father proud.
Volunteering for the paratroops, he began basic training and dreamed that one day, if he became an officer, he could join the secret services and use his telepathic gifts as a spy.
The Six Day War put an end to his fantasies. In June 1967, 18 months after he joined up, his unit was ordered into action to cut off enemy supply lines to Jerusalem.
Caught in an ambush by Jordanian tanks, he and his comrades took shelter in a graveyard, and Uri was hit in the left elbow by a bullet.
He staunched the blood with bandages. Minutes later, he saw his best friend Avram killed by a tank shell.
After predicting the death of the Egyptian president in 1970, Geller, left in 1974 and right in 2008, became an overnight star who would go on to achieve fame for decades
Pinned down by fire from a pillbox above them, Uri led a party to knock it out. As they worked their way up, a Jordanian soldier leapt out from behind a rock and fired twice, missing from just a few yards away.
With his gun at waist level, Uri returned fire. He said he was looking the soldier in the face as he killed him. A few moments later, he was hit himself — either by a ricochet or by a stray bullet.
Wounded in the head and right arm, he passed out.
Weeks later, he was discharged from hospital — badly scarred on both arms and unable to fully straighten his left elbow, but alive.
With his hopes of a military career wrecked, but still a serving soldier, he was given an assignment where he could recuperate, and sent to organise a government summer camp for children.
Tasked with entertaining them, Uri showed the youngsters his abilities to read minds and bend metal.
Word got around and before long he was invited on national TV. At that point, the security services started taking an interest.
Prime minister Golda Meir invited him to a party and quizzed him on his vision of Israel’s future.
LOCKED BOX AND ALIEN ENCOUNTER THAT CAN'T BE EXPLAINED
Days after Uri Geller described his childhood encounter with the mysterious ball of light, he and investigator Andrija Puharich had another inexplicable experience.
It began with a test: the scientist handed the psychic a heavy wooden box with a fountain pen locked inside and asked whether he could make the pen disappear without opening the box.
Uri concentrated for several minutes but, when the lid was opened, the pen was still inside the box. But on closer inspection, the brass ink cartridge inside the barrel had vanished.
A few days later, they were driving at night in a Tel Aviv suburb when they saw a bluish, pulsing ball of light above a building site.
Uri demanded they pull over and leapt out of the car to take a closer look, telling the scientist to stay where he was. Moments later, he disappeared from view.
When he returned, Uri claimed he had been plunged into a trance state once more and had stepped inside the ball of light.
A dark shape had loomed close to him and pressed something into his hand.
When he uncurled his fingers, he was holding the brass cartridge from the fountain pen.
Defence minister Moshe Dayan, a war hero famous for his black eyepatch, took a less esoteric interest — he wanted to know if Uri could locate buried archaeological treasures.
The turning point came in September 1970, when Uri was performing at the Tzavta theatre in Tel Aviv.
He suddenly stopped in mid-act, looked ill, sat down and asked if there was a doctor in the house. Then he started to ramble — he said an enormous event with a massive significance for Israel was about to occur.
Suddenly, he became specific. President Gamal Abdel Nasser, Egypt’s hardline dictator, was dead, he announced. He was certain of it.
The show was halted and the audience filed out. One journalist in the auditorium rushed to a phone, called the newsdesk to check and reported http://www.dailymail.co.uk/back that there were no rumours that Nasser was dead or even ill.
It was not until the next day that the news became public: the Egyptian leader had died of a heart attack, the night that Uri broke the news from the stage.
That striking incident made him a national celebrity. Prime minister Meir joked on the radio: ‘They say there’s a young man who can foresee exactly what will happen. I can’t!’
And across the Atlantic, the CIA began to take an interest. Fame and fortune...Uri Geller was about to get his heart’s desire.

Mystery deepens over world's biggest explosion 110 years ago in Russia as experts 'debunk proof' that blast the size of 185 Hiroshima bombs felt in the UK and US was caused by a meteorite
Mystery deepens over world's biggest explosion 110 years ago in Russia as experts 'debunk proof' that blast the size of 185 Hiroshima bombs felt in the UK and US was caused by a meteorite
Blast over Siberia flattened 80 million trees and left charred reindeer carcases
Explosion on June 20, 1908 was felt in Britain and lit up sky in Europe and the US
Italian scientists initially thought Lake Cheko filled a 'missing' meteorite crater
But Russian experts say it is 'not young enough' to be a crater lake caused by the explosion
The world's biggest explosion - a blast in Russia the size of 185 Hiroshima bombs that was felt as far away as Britain and the US - remains a mystery after experts debunked 'proof' it was a meteorite.
A large fireball was seen crossing the Siberian sky on June 20, 1908 before an eruption six miles above ground flattened 80 million trees and left charred reindeer carcases.
Italian scientists spent 21 years researching the so-called Tunguska event, claiming the blue-water Lake Cheko filled a 'missing' impact crater - giving rise to the theory that the phenomenon was caused by a meteorite.
But a new study by Russian geologists suggests the idea is flawed, meaning the huge blast - which lit up the night sky in Europe and even America - is still a mystery, according to reports in Moscow.
While they have not put forward an alternative explanation for the explosion, outlandish theories in the past have included a massive volcanic eruption, a comet mainly composed of ice not solid space rock, a black hole colliding with Earth and even aliens shooting down a meteor from a UFO in order to save Earth.
Local Evanki people believed it was a visitation by an angry god called Ogdy.
The world's biggest explosion in Russia in 1908 was initially thought to have been the result of a meteorite that created Lake Cheko (pictured) in Siberia
A large fireball was seen crossing the Siberian sky on June 20, 1908 before an eruption six miles above ground flattened 80 million trees and left charred reindeer carcases
A study by Russian geologists (pictured) suggests early theories about the explosion are flawed, meaning the huge blast - which lit up the night sky in Europe and even America - is still a mystery, according to reports in Moscow
There were reports at the time that the blast was felt as far away as Britain while the explosion lit up the sky in the US
The biggest-ever documented explosion was the size of 185 Hiroshima nuclear bombs - yet there was no evidence of human fatalities.
'There was a bang in the sky and a mighty crash. The crash was followed by a noise like stones falling from the sky, or of guns firing. The earth trembled,' said a native Siberian some 40 miles from the epicentre.
It appeared to be Armageddon. 'I became so hot I couldn't bear it, as if my shirt was on fire,' said another account.
'I wanted to tear off my shirt and throw it down, and then the sky slammed shut. A strong thump sounded and I was thrown a few yards.'
It caused shockwaves as far away as Britain and dust from the explosion lit up the night sky in its wake in Europe and even America.
From the first Soviet expeditions to this remote region of Siberia, the puzzling aspect was a lack of debris, for example craters caused by fragments of a meteorite, on the surface.
Italian scientist Luca Gasperini, from the University of Bologna, has long believed crater-shaped Lake Cheko (pictured), some five miles from the epicentre, to be the missing link in the Tunguska mystery
Italian scientist Luca Gasperini, from the University of Bologna, has long believed crater-shaped Lake Cheko, some five miles from the epicentre, to be the missing link in the Tunguska mystery.
It was not marked on tsarist-era maps of Siberia, and his team's seismic measurements of its bottom indicated sediment had been building for around a century.
They concluded that dense stony matter lies beneath the lake's floor and is the 'remnant' of the exploding meteorite.
The Italian theory based on the pattern of tree destruction is that two bodies entered the atmosphere. One exploded about five miles above ground, and the other hit the Earth forming Lake Cheko.
TUNGUSKA THEORIES: WHAT COULD HAVE 'SPLIT THE SKY IN TWO' IN 1908
More than 110 years ago, a massive explosion ripped through the sky over the Tunguska region of Siberia, flattening trees nearly 31 miles around.
The blast is thought to have been produced by a comet or asteroid hurtling through Earth's atmosphere at over 33,500 miles per hour, resulting in an explosion equal to 185 Hiroshima bombs as pressure and heat rapidly increased.
But, with no definitive impact crater and little evidence of such an object ever found, scientists remain perplexed as to what truly caused the event in which 'the sky was split in two'.
Numerous studies have attempted to make sense of what happened on June 30, 1908 at Tunguska.
The biggest-ever documented explosion was the size of 185 Hiroshima nuclear bombs - yet there was no evidence of human fatalities. Pictures show trees flattened by the blast
From UFO theories to speculation about the supernatural, the mysterious event has spurred explanations of all kinds, many of them lacking scientific basis.
Some scientists even suggested a black hole had collided with Earth – but other experts quickly shot down the idea.
In a review published in 2016 in the Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Natalia Artemieva of the Planetary Science Institute in Tucson, Arizona explains that the event followed a clear course.
Whatever caused the event likely entered the atmosphere at 9-19 miles per second, and would have been extremely fragile, destroying itself roughly six miles above Earth.
The possibility of an asteroid explosion was first proposed in 1927 by Leonid Kulik, 20 years after the event.
Others suggested the space-object may instead have been a comet, made up of ice rather than rock, meaning it would have evaporated as it entered Earth's atmosphere.
But, some scientists warn that these findings do not definitively explain the bizarre explosion – with meteor showers being a frequent occurrence, these samples could be the remnants of a much smaller, unnoticed event.
To some degree, the Tunguska event still remains a mystery, which scientists are continually working to solve – but, whether it be from a comet or asteroid, most agree that the explosion was caused by a large cosmic body slamming into Earth's atmosphere.
The blast led to a host of theories on the cause apart from a meteorite: from a massive volcanic eruption, to comet mainly composed of ice not solid space rock, to a black hole colliding with Earth, to aliens shooting down a meteor from a UFO in order to save Earth. Fallen trees could still be found at the site in the 1990s (pictured)

The explosion - the force iof 185 Hiroshima bombs - was recorded over Siberia but was felt as far away as Britain
Now Russian researchers have examined the sediment from the deepest part of the lake, some 50 metres below the surface, and undertaken geochemical and biochemical analysis.
The study indicates that the deepest sample they obtained is about 280 years old, which means that the lake is probably even older, because the researchers did not manage to obtain samples from the very bottom of the sediment layer.
'Besides, there are other deep, practically round lakes in the Tunguska reserve, which look like Lake Cheko and probably have the same geological origin,' said a statement from the expedition centre of the Russian Geographical Society in the Siberian Federal District.
According to local reports, traces of the mysterious Tunguska event can be seen even now
An aerial photograph of the Lake Cheko was obtained by an earlier Italian survey of the area
Aerial images show the pattern of trees flattened after the 1908 explosion and the inferred epicentre
'Geologically the lake appears young. But not young enough to be a crater lake caused by Tunguska,' reported The Siberian Times, which also said the reason for its formation remains a mystery.
So the puzzle over Tunguska remains, but the answer could be that it was a meteorite and that it exploded in the air.
In 2013 rock samples of meteoric origin with traces of a carbon mineral called lonsdaleite were found in this part of Siberia.
These are known to form when meteorites crash to Earth but could have been from other unrelated meteor showers.
It’s one of the big, important questions facing mankind today – why are visitors from beyond the stars so interested in Devon?
This week, dedicated UFO spotter John Mooner saw yet another hi-tech spacecraft over the county.
Mooner – who has previously spotted several other aliens – says, ‘I was stargazing looking at different astronomical bodies and taking photographs of the moon when I just happened to notice a very bright star like object to the left of me. I knew that it could not be a star because it was moving.
‘I zoomed in on the bright object which then to my surprise started to move anticlockwise in a semi circle. The bright object then shot towards my direction and then just disappeared.
But UFO investigator Mooner says he saw eight UFOs in just three months – including a close-up encounter with aliens in a Newton Abbot car park, chronicled on his site World UFO Photos and News.
Either that, or it could be evidence that people from Devon are just really, really weird.
Picture: John Mooner
On 12 September, 2016, a man reported triangular spacecraft flying over the county – and others spotted them, too, according to the London Economic.
That very same month, a family saw strange bright lights over the area.
Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, says, ‘Devon has had a long history of UFO visitations, that have ranged from sightings of lights in the sky to close encounters with UFO craft. Triangular UFOs seem to be in vogue at the moment, plus interest in looking to the skies of Devon has been encouraged by postings of UFO videos and picture that show unusual aerial activity over the county. For believersthis shows ‘they’ are on the verge of publicly revealing themselves, to sceptics it highlights the folly of internet rumours and human perception.’

FASCINATING: THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY PARACAS ELONGATED SKULL DISCOVERED TO DATE!
FASCINATING: THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY PARACAS ELONGATED SKULL DISCOVERED TO DATE!
The human body is a super complex machine that we probably won't understand until the day of our eventual extiction.
Scientists have studied the little details that make up our body system, how blood vessels work, how oxygen circulates throught he body, how the brain functions, etc. There are tons of details that are so complex and mind blowing about the human body which makes us an incredible species meant to do great things.
But there are several other mysterious human characteristics that we have never encoutnered within our own species, at least alive today.
The elongated skulls from Peru are some of the most peculiar remains of human beings that was ever discovered. It is known that elongated skulls can be made artificialy and takes a few months to get the desired results. But the Paracas elongated skulls are all natural, meaning it's part of a genetic making up an ancient and lost humanoid species.
Recently, one of the most fascinating Paracas skulls ever discovered has something very odd about it.
FASCINATING WALL IN THE FROZEN REALM OF ANTARCTICA
FASCINATING WALL IN THE FROZEN REALM OF ANTARCTICA
In 1838, Edgar Allan Poe published "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym" describing an adventure to Antarctica where the adventures found ancient ruins, labyrinths and Egyptian hieroglyphs on the walls.
Pym and Peters hide discover a labyrinth of passages in the hills with strange marks on the walls, and disagree about whether these are the result of artificial or natural causes. Facing a shortage of food, they make a desperate run and steal a pirogue from the natives, narrowly escaping from the island and taking one of its inhabitants prisoner.
In 1936, Howard P. Lovecraft published an article about a scientific expedition to Antarctica titled “At the Mountains of Madness” The story details the events of a disastrous expedition to the Antarctic continent in September 1930.
By using Google Earth ufosightings hotspot found some structures and anomalies in Antarctica which could be remnants from the past. Of course, all of this proves nothing really, but merely deepens the Antarctic mysteries even further.
RECENTLY RELEASED DECLASSIFIED CIA PAPERS REVEAL UFO AND ESP SECRETS
RECENTLY RELEASED DECLASSIFIED CIA PAPERS REVEAL UFO AND ESP SECRETS
It has been believed for decades if not centuries now that there was such a thing as UFO's and that individuals did have ESP or psychic powers. Of course, there was never any documentation by any government sanctioned office that these phenomena exist. That is none that was made open to the public, that is until now.
The CIA has now declassified million of documents that use to be top secret information. Some of these documents were stuff that many of us would expect to find, such as information about various war efforts over the years, But among these was also stuff that proved once and for all what so many of us already knew was true, the UFO sightings were real and there have been extensive study into ESP behavior.
The documentation shows investigations into UFO's dating back to the mid-seventies. These go into the fact that around twenty percent of these sightings were that of a flying craft that couldn't easily be explained nor did it seem to be anything that was technology known to man. There was also information on the fact that the Air Force did research into whether or not these UFO's were a threat to the earth and whether or not we should prepare for an attack.
According to one of the papers at least 20 percent of unidentified flying craft sightings could not be scientifically explained.
"The IAC has reviewed the current situation concerning unidentified flying objects, which have caused extensive speculation in the press and have been the subject of concern to Government organizations… Since 1947, approximately 1,500 official reports of sightings have been received and, of these about 20 percent are as yet unexplained," the document says.
There was also documentation that in the early seventies the CIA was doing a study on ESP. This study included doing research on an illusionist from Israel by the name of Uri Gellar. Gellar over the years had displayed signs of having psychic abilities, and he was among those well-known figures the CIA wanted to study.
But why was the CIA interested in those who displayed such abilities? Well, it would seem that US Military was initiating Project Stargate in 1978 which was about finding out about how psychic abilities were being used by military and other organizations in foreign countries or even at home. As for, Gellar's part of this research how did he pan out?
It would depend on who did the research according to the documentation he did have ESP. However, a few nights before he did this study he appeared on Tonight Show then hosted by Johnny Carson and didn't fair up as well. Maybe it comes down to what some say psychic abilities isn't something someone can turn on like a light switch it just happens. In any case, as for this, research and even Project Stargate it ended in the mid-nineties and this information was declassified.
Anyway, these documents prove what so many of us knew there were cover-ups going on. The truth was out there; it was just not being made known. That is until now, and it isn't anything knew that we didn't already suspect.
'Big Bang not true': This is what REALLY created universe, says man 'abducted by aliens'
'Big Bang not true': This is what REALLY created universe, says man 'abducted by aliens'
THE Big Bang never started the universe, according to a man who bizarrely claims to have been abducted by aliens who put him straight on the scientific theory.
The man detailed his experience on a popular conspiracy forum, giving details of what he alleges they told him.
Among his supposed revelations are that the universe did not come about as a result of the Big Bang and that aliens are able to communicate with each other via telepathy.
The anonymous man claimed his first contact with beings from outer-space happened when he was young when one got in touch with him through his brainwaves.
He the says that since then, he has been constantly conversing with them.
GETTY
Aliens told a man they abducted the big bang did not happen... allegedly.
He wrote: "For the last 17 years it’s been an on and off again thing. I’d just gone five years without any contact or communication incidents, but in August 2016, things got very serious, very fast.
“I went to bed one Saturday night just like any other night. But Sunday morning was not anything like any Sunday I’d been through before.
"I woke up and realised immediately what happened. I was freezing. And soaking wet. And I felt like I was in a dream. Have you ever been under anaesthetic? Same feeling when waking up.”
He claims that during this encounter, he was told that the universe was created by something called “The One” – something that is neither alive nor dead, male nor female, but responsible for everything in existence.
I was told that the universe was created by something called The One – something that is neither alive nor dead.
Alleged alien abductee
The man then made a series of outlandish claims about the history of the Earth from the Garden of Eden to today.
He added: “You likely won’t believe me yet, but that voice in your head, your conscience, is actually what’s left of the telepathic connection to our counterpart on Eden.
“Of course today we are raised to believe thinking anything other than ‘it’s your own voice’ will get you locked up in a psych ward.”
Several people believe or claim that they have been abducted by aliens, to the point that a "close encounter" conference was held in Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia, this week.

Wolf 1061c sits in its host star’s ‘habitable zone’ – massively increasing the chance of finding alien life.
The planet is relatively close by, sitting in a star system just 14 light-years away – which is “so close and that gives other opportunities to do follow-up studies to see if it does indeed have life”, San Francisco State University astronomer Stephen Kane.
Wolf 1061c orbits the star Wolf 1061 with two other planets and is in the goldilocks zone – an orbital region which is neither too hot, nor too cold to sustain life.
However, the astronomers say that it is on the edge of being too close to the star, which could mean that heat gets trapped in its atmosphere, leading to a greenhouse effect where the temperature steadily rises.
Experts state that this is likely what happened to Venus where temperatures now reach 880 degrees Fahrenheit – way too hot to sustain life.
Speaking about Wolf 1061c, Mr Kane said: “It's close enough to the star where it's looking suspiciously like a runaway greenhouse.”
GETTY
Venus was once a habitable planet
The team also state that, unlike Earth which experiences climatic changes such as the ice age because of minor variations in its orbit, Wolf 1061c’s orbit changes rapidly which could lead to chaotic climate change.

Mr Kane added: "It could cause the frequency of the planet freezing over or heating up to be quite severe.”
However, the team says that this could actually counter the effects of the “runaway greenhouse” cause, essentially keeping the planet cool enough to support life.
Two computer scientists say they proved that there is a holy supreme force after confirming the equations.
In 1978, mathematician Kurt Gödel died and left behind a long and complex theory based on modal logic.
Dr Gödel’s model uses mathematical equations that are extremely complicated, but the essence is that no greater power than God can be conceived, and if he or she is believed as a concept then he or she can existin reality.
But two computer scientists have used computers to run such complicated which they say confirms that the equation does indeed add up.
The point of the researchers’ argument was that they were not directly trying to prove the existence of God, but rather to showcase the power of computers.
Christoph Benzmüller of Berlin's Free University, who ran the calculations along with Bruno Woltzenlogel Paleo of the Technical University in Vienna, told Spiegel Online: "It's totally amazing that from this argument led by Gödel, all this stuff can be proven automatically in a few seconds or even less on a standard notebook.
“I didn’t know it would create such a huge public interest but [Gödel’s ontological proof] was definitely a better example than something inaccessible in mathematics or artificial intelligence…
It’s a very small, crisp thing, because we are just dealing with six axioms in a little theorem.
“There might be other things that use similar logic.”

Wetenschappers gebruiken wiskundige berekeningen om te ‘bewijzen’ dat God bestaat
Twee computerwetenschappers zeggen aan de hand van wiskundige vergelijkingen te hebben bewezen dat er een hogere macht is.
In 1978 stierf de Oostenrijks-Amerikaanse wiskundige Kurt Gödel. Hij wordt gezien als één van de belangrijkste logici aller tijden.
Hij ontwikkelde een complexe theorie op basis van de modale logica.
Hiernamaals
Gödel, een persoonlijke vriend van Einstein, geloofde in een leven na de dood. Hij stelde: “Ik ben overtuigd van een hiernamaals. Als de wereld rationeel in elkaar zit, moet er een leven na de dood zijn.”
In de jaren zeventig verspreidde hij onder zijn vrienden een uitwerking van Anselmus van Canterbury’s ontologisch bewijs van het bestaan van God.
Gödels wiskundige vergelijkingen zijn extreem ingewikkeld. Zijn complexe theorie gaat ervan uit dat het concept van God te groot, te anders is voor het menselijke begrip, dat hij gemaakt moet zijn door God.
Laptop
Kurt Gödel
Twee computerwetenschappers zeggen dat Gödels godsbewijs klopt.
De onderzoekers wilden niet zozeer het bestaan van God bewijzen, maar vooral laten zien over hoeveel rekenkracht computers beschikken.
“Het is zeer indrukwekkend dat dit slechts in een paar seconden kan worden bewezen met behulp van een laptop,” vertelden Christoph Benzmüller van de Vrije Universiteit Berlijn en Bruno Woltzenlogel Paleo van de Technische Universiteit Wenen aan Spiegel Online.
Compleet
De twee wetenschappers maakten de theorie van Gödel compleet.
“Gödels ontologisch bewijs was zeker een beter voorbeeld dan iets onbereikbaars in de wiskunde of kunstmatige intelligentie,” aldus het tweetal.
UFO Appears From Bottom OF Cloud Over Mexico, Jan 2017, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
UFO Appears From Bottom OF Cloud Over Mexico, Jan 2017, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: January 2017 Location of sighting: Michoacan, Mexico News source:
https://www.elsoldemexico.com.mx/doble-via/573894-un-ovni-conoce-al-fenomeno-que-sorprende-a-michoacan Yesterday in Mexico a large cloud was forming when suddenly a round disk was seen appearing pushing through its bottom layer. The disk was of a different color than the cloud itself and looked smooth and rounded. Some people ask me, why would a UFO want to make a cloud to hide it? Because it can really rock the world of those people who are on the edge already or a little unstable or especially sensitive. They don't want to be the cause of someone getting hurt down here. They just want a close look and want you to think...they are not there, its just a coincidence that such a cloud exists. It keeps people calm. I remember a report from the W56 Friendship case at Rocca Pia Italy, where some people were becoming friends with the aliens in the base below the castle there. One of the aliens said that they could never harm another living thing. To do so would be against all they believe and stand for (this only represents views of W56, not all aliens). That they would rather self destruct than harm a single human being. Its odd, but we certainly can't judge multiple alien species based on our culture, also compounded by the fact that humans have a small IQ and aliens have an astronomically high IQ. Level of intelligence changes the perceptual field...the way each individual views the world around them. Scott C. Waring News states: HUETAMO.- At approximately 06:30 in the morning of this Saturday a strange meteorological phenomenon was visualized in several municipalities of the state of Michoacán, mainly in the hill of Tejerias, pertaining to the municipality of Huetamo. It is a spot with swirling figure and in the lower part a red light, which was appreciated in the sky, and was seen in several municipalities of Michoacan territory. People observed for more than an hour this phenomenon, which had never been seen.

UFO Shoots Past Live Interview At Capital Hill, Jan 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: January 22, 2017 Location of sighting: Washington DC, USA News Source:http://www.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=10 This is a great find by UFOvni of Youtube. Its a UFO shooting past a guy giving an interview at Capital Hill. The white craft moves quickly from the left to the right side of the screen. This is similar to what we saw at the Obama inauguration long ago on live CNN, but back then, even the CNN announcers noticed it and were trying to figure it out, but couldn't. This looks very similar. Strangely enough, the source video was gone, possibly deleted by CTV News after the UFO was made public, or maybe its just my location here in Taiwan. Some videos don't work outside the US. Can anyone confirm in comments inside the US if the video source works please? Thanks, Scott C. Waring
