UFO Mysteriously Appears In The Skies Northeast Of Antioquia, Colombia On Jan 20, 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Here is a great UFO report from Inexplicata.com and we were lucky enough to get hold of a copy of the original video from UFO researcher Andries Riphagen of Youtube. When you see something like this in the sky you have to wonder where it came from, but I am glad that the local residents say that they will keep and eye out for its return. We may be getting more footage in the coming months of this UFO from a new angle. I believe the cycles within circles are due to the energy pulse or flow of the energy around the UFO causing this effect. As the eyewitnesses said, it only had the waves in photos, but not with the naked eye. Scott C. Waring
Inexplicata states: 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. [Translation (c) 2017 S.

Silver Disk Seen Over Sutherland Springs, Texas During Day, Jan 21, 2017, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Silver Disk Seen Over Sutherland Springs, Texas During Day, Jan 21, 2017, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting:January 21, 2017
Location of sighting: Sutherland Springs, Texas, USA
News source: MUFON #81691
Here is a cool sighting just in today. A thick silver disk was moving over Texas when a guy noticed it and snapped four photos before the UFO shot off. You will notice some dark rectangles on the UFO, those are windows. Its very rare to get such a sweet shot of a UFO during daylight hours. Because of this, we can clearly make out the windows as well as its metallic shell. The UFO also has a rigged look to it instead of a smooth even look.
Now, this reminds me of the Stephenville UFO incident that took place back in January 8, 2008. It happened just 140 miles from this new sighting at Sutherland Springs. It too was metallic but it was a rectangle craft that was 300 meters long and seen by hundreds including the local sherif, but the UFO then continued making a bee line to Presidents Bush ranch near Crawford...after that the gov says the UFO was off radar, but we all know radar will cover the Bush ranch. All this happened not far from this new sighting. I believe they are connected. But is it a secret USAF project making these part alien part human craft or is it truly 100% alien?
Scott C. Waring
Eyewitness states:
Witness was loading PVC pipe into the back of his pick-up parked at the diesel pump at the VP gas station / convenience store on Hwy 87 in Sutherland Springs. Witness was facing southeast when he first saw the object to the southeast. It's silver reflective color caught his attention (mid day, bright sunlight). It was hovering approximately 450 feet southeast of witness's position, about 300-400 off the ground, to the right / SE of Hwy 87. Witness had no idea what it could be so he continued to watch it. He describes the object as a silver disc about 8 - 10 feet in diameter. Did not see any other markings or shapes (ie dome, lights, etc). From it's hovering position it made an "erratic" sudden move to the right (south)then ascended somewhat, tilted and began moving off toward the northeast, crossing Hwy 87. Witness took out is cell phone and took four photos as the object flew off toward the north. Witness describes the motion of the object as it was flying off as an extended arc, similar to skeet being launched on a gun range.
Witness remained in has position behind his truck throughout the sighting. He did not hear, smell or sense anything else from the object. The sighting lasted approximately 45 seconds from when it was first noticed until it flew out of sight. Witness states that later in the day, he felt some anxiety, but does not think this was related to this sighting.
A UFO in the Russian skies has brought amazement to some Russian sky watchers who thought it was something unusual airborne object. Initially, the video shows a lattice-like sphere of light that appears nothing more than an ordinary small light in the sky.
However, when the woman who filmed the event zoomed in, the bright thing seemed more like a giant ball with visible microstructures within.
According to the report, the object appears like a tiny sea creature under a microscope.
The object’s scale is somewhat emphasized as the sky gazer filming the event zooms in and out. Many observers believe that the thing is too small to be the moon but too big to be any other identifiable objects.
When something appears to be moving on the surface of the UFO, the videographer notices a grey strip running on it. She can be heard in the background talking about the particular moment.
The UFO was filmed in the sky over the city of Ryazan in western Russia. As of date, no information yet on the nature of the mysterious aerial thing.
Luminous spheres usually come from an atmospheric phenomenon called ball lightning, but they are much smaller than the one caught in the video. They range from a pea size to a few meters in diameter. Furthermore, these luminous spheres only last a few seconds before exploding or disappearing.

This UFO video of a triangular-shaped formation was taken over National City in California on 23rd January 2017.
Witness report:
These 3 fire like lights were just hovering inside a big rain cloud. You see halfways through that the one of the left starts to fade away or go into the horizon. My batteries were low on my cell phone but after this video a 4th light appeared to the right of the street lamp and the one that had disappeared re-appeared. This happened around 8:15pm Pacific Time.

Check out this interesting UFO sighting video of a bright unidentified flying object hovering above Goodyear in Arizona. This was filmed this month (in January 2017).
What do you think about this footage? Please leave your comments below.
Witness report:
My daughter and I were driving at night in the dark when we noticed 4 lights that looked very bright above the distant mountains. Four of them lined up next to one another from right to left. They stayed stationary for a few moments and then 1 would fly swiftly away from the others leaving 3 in a linear horizontal line before it disappeared. It would spontaneously reappear and then fly above the other 3, move left again and then realign with the other 4 leaving 4 brightly shining in the sky. We also saw a distant airplane but it appeared farther away, higher and with blinking lights.
The UFOS we saw were solid bright white/yellow and were brilliant against the night sky. They flew fluidly, and would move great lengths across the sky in an instant, disappearing and reappearing. They were much larger than stars in the sky and brighter than the brightest star. We felt excited and in awe, and happy they would reappear so we could get good pictures and videos. Our neighbors also saw them while out driving. We finally left to go home. We have seen them before in a dark night sky over the Estrella mountains to the East. They are common in this part of Goodyear. We see them several times a year.

Experiment Resolves Mystery About Wind Flows on Jupiter
Experiment Resolves Mystery About Wind Flows on Jupiter
Jupiter’s colorful, swirling winds known as “jets” have long puzzled astronomers. One mystery has been whether the jets exist only in the planet’s upper atmosphere — much like the Earth’s own jet streams — or whether they plunge into Jupiter’s gaseous interior. If the latter is true, it could reveal clues about the planet’s interior structure and internal dynamics.
Now, UCLA geophysicist Jonathan Aurnou and collaborators in Marseille, France, have simulated Jupiter’s jets in the laboratory for the first time. Their work demonstrates that the winds likely extend thousands of miles below Jupiter’s visible atmosphere.
“We can make these features in a computer, but we couldn’t make them happen in a lab,” said Aurnou, a UCLA professor of earth, planetary and space sciences, who has spent the past decade studying computer models of swirling winds. “If we have a theoretical understanding of a system, we should be able to create an analog model.”
The challenge to re-creating swirling winds in the lab was building a model of a planet with three key attributes believed to be necessary for jets to form: rapid rotation, turbulence and a “curvature effect” that mimics the spherical shape of a planet. Previous attempts to create jets in a lab often failed because researchers couldn’t spin their models fast enough or create enough turbulence, Aurnou said.
The breakthrough for Aurnou’s team was a new piece of laboratory equipment. The researchers used a table built on air bearings that can spin at 120 revolutions per minute and support a load of up to 1,000 kilograms (about 2,200 pounds), meaning that it could spin a large tank of fluid at high speed in a way that mimics Jupiter’s rapid rotation.
The scientists filled an industrial-sized garbage with 400 liters (about 105 gallons) of water and placed it on the table. When the container spun, water was thrown against its sides, forming a parabola that approximated the curved surface of Jupiter.
“The faster it went, the better we mimicked the massively strong effects of rotation and curvature that exists on planets,” Aurnou said. But the team found that 75 revolutions per minute was a practical limit: fast enough to force the liquid into a strongly curved shape but slow enough to keep water from spilling out.
While the can was spinning, scientists used a pump below its false floor to circulate water through a series of inlet and outlet holes, which created turbulence — one of the three critical conditions for the experiment. That turbulent energy was channeled into making jets, and within minutes the water flow had changed to six concentric flows moving in alternating directions.
“This is the first time that anyone has demonstrated that strong jets that look like those on Jupiter can develop in a real fluid,” Aurnou said.
The researchers inferred that the jets were deep because they could see them on the surface of the water, even though they had injected turbulence at the bottom.
The researchers are looking forward to testing their predictions with real data from Jupiter, and they won’t have to wait long: NASA’s Juno space probe is orbiting Jupiter right now, collecting data about its atmosphere, magnetic field and interior. Initial results from the Juno mission were presented at the American Geophysical Union meeting in December in San Francisco, and Aurnou was there.
“The Juno data from the very first flyby of Jupiter showed that structures of ammonia gas extended over 60 miles into Jupiter’s interior, which was a big shock to the Juno science team,” Aurnou said. “UCLA researchers will be playing an important role in explaining the data.”
This year, Aurnou and his team will use supercomputers at Argonne National Laboratory in Argonne, Illinois, to simulate the dynamics of Jupiter’s interior and atmosphere. They’ll also continue their work at the laboratory in Marseilles to make the spinning table simulation more complex and more realistic.
One goal is to add a thin, stable layer of fluid on top of the spinning water, which would function like the thin outer layer of Jupiter’s atmosphere that’s responsible for the planet’s weather. The researchers believe this will help them simulate features like Jupiter’s famous Great Red Spot.
The research was funded by the National Science Foundation Geophysics Program, the French Agence Nationale pour la Recherche and the Aix-Marseille University Foundation.
NASA develops AI for future exploration of extraterrestrial subsurface oceans
NASA develops AI for future exploration of extraterrestrial subsurface oceans
by Tomasz Nowakowski, Astrowatch.net
NASA is developing technology that could enable autonomous navigation of future underwater drones studying subsurface oceans on icy moons like Jupiter's Europa. The agency is working on artificial intelligence (AI) that would allow submersibles to make their own decisions during exploration of extraterrestrial water worlds.
Space exploration missions and astronomical observations in recent years have shown that our solar system is abundant in water and could host at least several subsurface liquid oceans. The scientific community assumes that water exists beneath the crust of Europa, as well as on other icy moons like Saturn's Dione and Ganymede. Compelling evidence of hidden oceans on dwarf planets Ceres and Pluto has been also presented recently, proving that many mysteries may lie deep within these frigid celestial bodies, waiting to be uncovered by underwater robotic explorers.
NASA is aware of the emerging challenges that it must face if it wants to successfully explore subsurface oceans on Europa and other icy worlds. Such underwater drones would focus on searching for microbial life in this harsh environment, which strongly impedes nominal communications with mission control on Earth. Therefore, the key issue is to develop highly autonomous, submarine-like probes capable of making decisions on their own in real time in order to continue exploration and research uninterrupted.
"Depending on the exact mission concept under consideration, autonomous underwater vehicles exploring ocean worlds will need to operate autonomously for days to months. Within this timeframe, they must manage their own resources, explore a largely unknown environment, including navigating to and from a single point of insertion which also serves as a communications link to the outside world," Steve Chien of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) told Astrowatch.net.
Chien leads the Artificial Intelligence Group at JPL, which is currently developing AI for underwater drones. From August 26 to September 4, 2016, the team tested a fleet of coordinated drones in Monterey Bay, California, with the aim of detecting changes in temperature and salinity.
The fleet that was tested includes three autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), two ocean gliders, and one Tethys-class Long-Range AUV. The system is complemented by a 300-meter resolution ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System) free-surface, terrain-following, primitive equations ocean model developed especially for this project, and a suite of planning software. The software identifies the location of specific scientific targets based on the ROMS output and autonomously determines the optimal sampling strategy for a heterogeneous array of autonomous vehicles.
During last year's test runs, the fleet of these six small submersibles sensed how the ocean actively changed around them, which is essential for the development of autonomous navigation systems. The gliders were deployed earlier in the summer to provide over a month of data prior to the intensive field program.
These tests were part of the team's continuous effort to design and plan future autonomous vehicles with the focus on further refining and demonstrating AI technologies. The next set of test runs is planned for the spring 2017.
"We are developing mission concepts and developing some of the needed technologies as well as demonstrating technologies to Earth analogues and Earth science problems," Chien said.
Given that the main goal of future underwater drones exploring subsurface oceans would be looking for microbial lifeforms, Chien proposes that the probes should concentrate on searching for fissures in a planet's surface known as hydrothermal vents. These features, commonly found on ocean basins, are perceived as potential life-supporting environments due to geothermally heated water emissions. Furthermore, more general characterization of such an alien underground watery world is also needed, as these represent totally unknown and unexplored realms.
The team is convinced that their project will provide a framework for designing robotic missions to extraterrestrial ice covered oceans.
"The vast majority of space exploration is conducted by robotic probes. Increasing the autonomy in future missions is essential to both increasing the effectiveness of space exploration as well as exploring more distant, challenging environments, such as sub-ice oceans," Chien concluded.
Researchers have discovered that chemically active droplets grow to a set size and then divide on their own accord in a way that's very similar to living cell division.
The discovery could help us understand how the very first living cells initially evolved from protocells billions of years ago, though much more research is still ahead of us.
THE ORIGIN OF LIFE
Modern science has advanced significantly over the last couple of decades. We’ve managed to answer several of the world’s most long-standing questions, but some answers have continued to elude today’s scientists, including how life first emerged from the Earth’s primordial soup. However, a collaboration of physicists and biologists in Germany may have just found an explanation to how living cells first evolved.
In 1924, Russian biochemist Alexander Oparin proposed the idea that the first living cells could have evolved from liquid droplet protocells. He believed these protocells could have acted as naturally forming, membrane-free containers that concentrated chemicals and fostered reactions.
In their hunt for the origin of life, a team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems and the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, both in Dresden, drew from Oparin’s theory by studying the physics of “chemically active” droplets (droplets that cycle molecules from the fluid in which they are surrounded). Unlike a “passive” type of droplet, like oil in water, which will just continue to grow as more oil is added to the mix, the researchers realized that chemically active droplets grow to a set size and then divide on their own accord.
This behavior mimics the division of living cells and could therefore be the link between the nonliving primordial liquid soup from which life sprung and the living cells that eventually evolved to create all life on Earth. “It makes it more plausible that there could have been spontaneous emergence of life from nonliving soup,” said Frank Jülicher, co-author of the study that appeared in the journal Nature Physicsin December 2016. It’s an explanation of “how cells made daughters,” said lead researcher David Zwicker. “This is, of course, key if you want to think about evolution.
ADD A DROPLET OF LIFE
Some have speculated that these protocellular droplets might still be inside our system “like flies in life’s evolving amber.” To explore that theory, the team studied the physics of centrosomes, which are organelles active in animal cell division that seem to behave like droplets. Zwicker modeled an “out-of-equilibrium” centrosome system that was chemically active and cycling constituent proteins continuously in and out of the surrounding liquid cytoplasm. The proteins behave as either soluble (state A) or insoluble (state B). An energy source can trigger a state reversal, causing the protein in state A to transform into state B by overcoming a chemical barrier. As long as there was an energy source, this chemical reaction could happen. “In the context of early Earth, sunlight would be the driving force,” Jülicher said.
Odarin famously believed that lighting strikes or geothermal activity on early Earth could’ve triggered these chemical reactions from the liquid protocells. This constant chemical influx and efflux would only counterbalance itself, according to Zwicker, when a certain volume was reached by the active droplet, which would then stop growing. Typically, the droplets could grow to about tens or hundreds of microns, according to Zwicker’s simulations. That’s about the same scale as cells.
The next step is to identify when these protocells developed the ability to transfer genetic information. Jülicher and his colleagues believe that somewhere along the way, the cells developed membranes, perhaps from the crusts they naturally develop out of lipids that prefer to remain at the intersection of the droplet and outside liquid. As a kind of protection for what’s within the cells, genes could’ve begun coding for these membranes. But knowing anything for sure still depends on more experiments.
So, if the very complex life on Earth could have begun from something as seemingly inconspicuous as liquid droplets, perhaps the same could be said of possible extraterrestrial life? In any case, this research could help us understand how life as we know it started from the simplest material and how the chemical processes that made our lives possible emerged from these. The energy and time it took for a protocell to develop into a living cell, and the living cells into more complex parts, until finally developing into an even more complex organism is baffling. The process itself took billions of years to happen, so it’s not surprising we need some significant time to fully understand it.
This transparent film can detect a warm body the size of a teddy bear from a meter away and is twice as sensitive as human skin at sensing temperature changes.
Because it is made of low-cost pectin, the material could prove very useful in creating heat-sensitive humanoid robots that could navigate crowds or assist in search and rescue missions.
INSPIRED BY NATURE
Drawing inspiration from nature, scientists have created a heat-sensing film that would allow robots to detect temperature changes in their environment.
Developed by the team from ETH Zurich in Switzerland, the material mimics how the natural membrane of a snake works to help the animal identify nearby prey. Surprisingly, the researchers were able to achieve this using pectin — a low-cost substance that’s primarily used to thicken jam.
To make the film, a pectin solution was mixed with calcium chloride and then dehydrated to create a transparent, flexible material. Unlike traditional electronics, which detect temperature changes via currents of electrons, this film senses temperature variations through ion currents, which is the process used by snakes. Any change in the nearby temperature would affect the film’s resistance, which the researchers could measure via electrodes along the film’s edges.
To test the film, the team microwaved a teddy bear to 37° C (98.6° F) and measured how it affected the film from various distances. Results showed that the membrane was able to recognize the warmed bear from as far away as one meter. It could also detect temperature changes as small as 10 millikelvin — that’s twice as sensitive as human skin.
HEAT-SENSING FOR MACHINES AND AI
“Pectin films are ultra-low cost and scalable, insensitive to pressure and bending, and can be used to augment temperature sensing when integrated in synthetic skin platforms,” the researchers explain in their published study. This could be particularly useful in creating artificially intelligent (AI) robots, as covering a robot’s entire body with this film would essentially give it a layer of “skin” capable of 360-degree thermal sensing.
“The most important thing about combining AI and humanoid robots is that this AI needs to be shaped by its senses like we are,” research lead Raffaele Di Giacomo told New Scientist. “You need to provide full sensory feedback so the AI can build up a picture of the world.” Indeed, heat-sensing features could help robots learn more about their environment and function more efficiently. For starters, the technology could allow robots to seamlessly navigate crowded areas. It would also make it easier for robots developed for emergency response to locate humans during search and rescue missions.
Because the film makes it possible to give nearly any object temperature-sensing capabilities, it has applications outside of robotics as well. It could be used in prosthetics to help provide sensory feedback for wearers, and given the film’s flexibility, it could easily be fitted around mechanical parts, too. The team says that it can be applied either as a spray-on or dip-coating — yet another example of the technology featured on the show “Westworld” potentially cropping up in real life.

Roswell - What's Next?
Roswell - What's Next?
The other day someone asked me, “What’s the next step for Roswell?”
It was a question that I hadn’t thought about much but is one that needs to be addressed though I thought I had made a note of this in Roswell in the 21st Century. (Sure, some of you might be annoyed at these little promotional mentions, but hey, I don’t charge you a membership to visit here.)

Museum. Copyright by Randle.
Let’s look at it this way. If there is a first-hand witness still alive who saw anything, if he or she has not come forward and we all who have been searching for every possible witness hasn’t found that person, I would bet that person simply didn’t see much at all or is long past providing us with any useful information. Certainly nothing that would break the case open and provide the smoking gun. Everyone at the top levels of the Roswell command structure, whether officer or NCO, is dead. Some of the lower ranking and therefore younger members might still be out there, but the odds are that they are deep into their nineties with the 70th anniversary looming. There has been an effort to find papers, documents, diaries, journals, letters, anything that mentions the crash and recovery and written prior to 1978 when Jesse Marcel first burst onto the scene. To this point there is simply nothing of value found, certainly nothing that can be properly dated and nothing that leads us into the realm of the alien.
So, witnesses can no longer be interviewed, unless you resort to talking to the children or the grandchildren of those stationed at Roswell. This is something that I don’t think bears much fruit. Those former service members certainly could have been spinning a tale or two, the listeners could have misinterpreted what was said, or thought they heard things that weren’t said. If someone had written it down in one of those seemingly nonexistent diaries or journals at the time the tale was uttered, then we might have something interesting or something that would provide a lead, but none of that has borne fruit either.
There really isn’t a next step, except for the search for documents, and that hasn’t gone all that well. Personally, I’ve made dozens of FOIA requests and I’m not alone in that. Hundreds, if not thousands, have been made, and I’m still waiting for responses on some of them. (Or I get snide letters such as the one from the CIA… I had asked about the analysis of the Ramey Memo done in the mid-1990s by an organization that was, at that time, part of the CIA… I mentioned that the photo had been taken in 1947 and they told me that the CIA didn’t exist in 1947. I didn’t bother telling that the Central Intelligence Group did but my question dealt with the Air Force inquiry that came in the 1990s not something from 1947).
We can review the information already collected. Many, if not most, of the interviews were conducted on audio and videotape so that a record of them exists that might provide some clues. These can be reviewed. As I was doing that, I did find some interesting tidbits overlooked at the time. Oh, nothing that would alter anyone’s view, but interesting tidbits that helped complete an overall picture. And, of course, we can compare later statements with earlier ones to see if any, or rather how much, those statements have changed. Sometimes it’s just little things and other times it is a major alteration. That also can provide information but that sort of data won’t lead us to the extraterrestrial, or any other answer for that matter.
We can continue the onslaught of FOIA, but the records sought, if they even exist, would be so highly classified that national security would come into play and the records would be withheld. We would be told that the specific agency under FOIA could neither confirm nor deny the existence of the records sought. And that’s if they even bother to look for them. We just might just be told that they have no records that are responsive to our requests. I once FOIAed a document, giving the title, the date it was written, the author, and the overall topic and was told that my request hadn’t been specific enough. I’m not sure that if I have even given them the first page or two that would have been specific enough. I just don’t know what else I could have included to make it clearer to them and there seemed to be nowhere to go with the next request.
Thinking about this carefully, I just can’t seem to think of anything more to be done except another “cold case” review of the information. The testimony has been collected, the documentation has been sought, and archives have been searched. A review might suggest something to someone who has not been immersed in the case for decades, or he or she might think of an avenue of research that hasn’t been explored, but I don’t know what it would be. We are now dead in the water, waiting for inspiration.

Physicists from The Australian National University (ANU) have invented a tiny device that creates the highest quality holographic images ever achieved, opening the door to imaging technologies seen in science fiction movies such as Star Wars.
Lead researcher Lei Wang said the team created complex holographic images in infrared with the invention that could be developed with industry.
"As a child, I learned about the concept of holographic imaging from the Star Wars movies. It's really cool to be working on an invention that uses the principles of holography depicted in those movies," said Mr Wang, a PhD student at the ANU Research School of Physics and Engineering.
Holograms perform the most complex manipulations of light. They enable the storing and reproduction of all information carried by light in 3D. In contrast, standard photographs and computer monitors capture and display only a portion of 2D information.
"While research in holography plays an important role in the development of futuristic displays and augmented reality devices, today we are working on many other applications such as ultra-thin and light-weight optical devices for cameras and satellites," he said.
Mr Wang said the device could replace bulky components to miniaturise cameras and save costs in astronomical missions by reducing the size and weight of optical systems on space craft.
Co-lead researcher Dr Sergey Kruk said the device consisted of millions of tiny silicon pillars, each up to 500 times thinner than a human hair.
"This new material is transparent, which means it loses minimal energy from the light, and it also does complex manipulations with light," said Dr Kruk from the ANU Research School of Physics and Engineering.
"Our ability to structure materials at the nanoscale allows the device to achieve new optical properties that go beyond the properties of natural materials. The holograms that we made demonstrate the strong potential of this technology to be used in a range of applications."
Dr Kruk said ANU led the design, fabrication and optical testing of the device.
Part of the research was conducted in collaboration with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the United States and Nanjing University in China.
From Georgia Tech, a news release that we missed when it first came out, but still well worth talking about.
First Optical Rectenna – Combined Rectifier and Antenna – Converts Light to DC Current
Using nanometer-scale components, researchers have demonstrated the first optical rectenna, a device that combines the functions of an antenna and a rectifier diode to convert light directly into DC current.

Based on multiwall carbon nanotubes and tiny rectifiers fabricated onto them, the optical rectennas could provide a new technology for photodetectors that would operate without the need for cooling, energy harvesters that would convert waste heat to electricity – and ultimately for a new way to efficiently capture solar energy.
In the new devices, developed by engineers at the Georgia Institute of Technology, the carbon nanotubes act as antennas to capture light from the sun or other sources. As the waves of light hit the nanotube antennas, they create an oscillating charge that moves through rectifier devices attached to them. The rectifiers switch on and off at record high petahertz speeds, creating a small direct current.
Billions of rectennas in an array can produce significant current, though the efficiency of the devices demonstrated so far remains below one percent. The researchers hope to boost that output through optimization techniques, and believe that a rectenna with commercial potential may be available within a year.
“We could ultimately make solar cells that are twice as efficient at a cost that is ten times lower, and that is to me an opportunity to change the world in a very big way” said Baratunde Cola, an associate professor in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech. “As a robust, high-temperature detector, these rectennas could be a completely disruptive technology if we can get to one percent efficiency. If we can get to higher efficiencies, we could apply it to energy conversion technologies and solar energy capture.”
The research, supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center and the Army Research Office (ARO), was reported September 28 in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.
Developed in the 1960s and 1970s, rectennas have operated at wavelengths as short as ten microns, but for more than 40 years researchers have been attempting to make devices at optical wavelengths. There were many challenges: making the antennas small enough to couple optical wavelengths, and fabricating a matching rectifier diode small enough and able to operate fast enough to capture the electromagnetic wave oscillations. But the potential of high efficiency and low cost kept scientists working on the technology.
“The physics and the scientific concepts have been out there,” said Cola. “Now was the perfect time to try some new things and make a device work, thanks to advances in fabrication technology.”
Using metallic multiwall carbon nanotubes and nanoscale fabrication techniques, Cola and collaborators Asha Sharma, Virendra Singh and Thomas Bougher constructed devices that utilize the wave nature of light rather than its particle nature. They also used a long series of tests – and more than a thousand devices – to verify measurements of both current and voltage to confirm the existence of rectenna functions that had been predicted theoretically. The devices operated at a range of temperatures from 5 to 77 degrees Celsius.
Fabricating the rectennas begins with growing forests of vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes on a conductive substrate. Using atomic layer chemical vapor deposition, the nanotubes are coated with an aluminum oxide material to insulate them. Finally, physical vapor deposition is used to deposit optically-transparent thin layers of calcium then aluminum metals atop the nanotube forest. The difference of work functions between the nanotubes and the calcium provides a potential of about two electron volts, enough to drive electrons out of the carbon nanotube antennas when they are excited by light.
In operation, oscillating waves of light pass through the transparent calcium-aluminum electrode and interact with the nanotubes. The metal-insulator-metal junctions at the nanotube tips serve as rectifiers switching on and off at femtosecond intervals, allowing electrons generated by the antenna to flow one way into the top electrode. Ultra-low capacitance, on the order of a few attofarads, enables the 10-nanometer diameter diode to operate at these exceptional frequencies.
“A rectenna is basically an antenna coupled to a diode, but when you move into the optical spectrum, that usually means a nanoscale antenna coupled to a metal-insulator-metal diode,” Cola explained. “The closer you can get the antenna to the diode, the more efficient it is. So the ideal structure uses the antenna as one of the metals in the diode – which is the structure we made.”
The rectennas fabricated by Cola’s group are grown on rigid substrates, but the goal is to grow them on a foil or other material that would produce flexible solar cells or photodetectors.
Cola sees the rectennas built so far as simple proof of principle. He has ideas for how to improve the efficiency by changing the materials, opening the carbon nanotubes to allow multiple conduction channels, and reducing resistance in the structures.
“We think we can reduce the resistance by several orders of magnitude just by improving the fabrication of our device structures,” he said. “Based on what others have done and what the theory is showing us, I believe that these devices could get to greater than 40 percent efficiency.”

FBI document: We’ve been visited by ‘beings from ANOTHER dimension’
FBI document: We’ve been visited by ‘beings from ANOTHER dimension’
While most people are clinched into a worldwide debate about aliens, discussing UFO sightings in space, on Earth, and the sheer number of whistleblowers who have come forward saying that we aren’t alone in the universe, the FBI has a very interesting document posted on their website.
The declassified document states that not only have we’ve been visited by ET, apparently we’ve been visited by “beings from other dimensions.”
However, it is noteworthy to mention that the document itself DID NOT ORIGINATE within the FBI. The document –which is an extract from a 69-page document called ufo1.pdf— was written by a former university head.
Nevertheless, the document was treated with great importance by the FBI, which is something I find VERY interesting.
The official link from the FBI vault can be found here:
A rewritten copy of the report can be found below. (NOTE) some words in the original text are illegible due to the numerous notations and stamps.
The document, which was received on July 8, 1947, states:
This memorandum is respectfully addressed to certain scientists of distinction, to important aeronautical and military authorities, to a number of public officials and to a few publications. The writer has little expectation that anything of import will be accomplished by this gesture. The mere fact that the data here-in were obtained by so-called supernormal means is probably sufficient to ensure its disregard by nearly all the persons addressed: nevertheless it seems a public duty to make it available. (The present writer has several university degrees and was formerly a university department head).
A very serious situation may develop at any time with regard to the “flying saucers”. If one of these should be attacked, the attacking plane will almost certainly be destroyed. In the public mind, this might create near panic and international suspicion. The principal data concerning these craft is now at hand and must be offered, no matter how fantastic and unintelligible it may seem to minds not previously instructed in thinking of this type.
Part of the disks carry crews, others are under remote control.
Their mission is peaceful. The visitors contemplate settling on this plane.
These visitors are human-like but much larger in size.
They are not excarnate Earth people but come from their own world.
They do NOT come from a planet as we use the word, but from an etheric planet which interpenetrates with our own and is not perceptible to us.
The bodies of the visitors, and the craft, automatically materialize on entering the vibratory rate of our dense matter.
The disks possess a type of radiant energy or a ray, which will easily disintegrate any attacking ship. They reenter the etheric at will, and so simply disappear from our vision, without a trace.
The region from which they come is not the “astral plane”, but corresponds to the Lokas or Talas. Students of esoteric matters will understand these terms.
They probably cannot be reached by radio, but probably can be by radar. if a signal system can be devised for that apparatus.
We give information and warning and can do no more. Let the newcomers be treated with every kindness. Unless the disks are with-(illegible) a (illegible, illegible) with which our culture and science are incapable of dealing. A heavy responsibility rests upon the few in authority who are able to understand this matter.
Addendum: The Lokas are oval-shaped, fluted length, oval with a heat-resisting metal or alloy not yet known, the front cage contains the controls, the middle portion a laboratory; the rear contains armament, which consists essentially of a powerful energy apparatus, perhaps a ray…

The hollow Earth theory
The hollow Earth theory
One of the most interesting question many people have asked for centuries is whether there is a possibility that our planet is hollow? For many years it was believed that the earth was hollow, but even though many have come up with theories, until 1968 there was no proof. That year, pictures taken by a satellite orbiting Earth clearly showed a gaping hole located at the North Pole; enough evidence to support the hollow Earth theory according to many.
In the early 1970’s, ESSA, a project belonging to the Department of Commerce of the United States, gave media access to images of the North Pole taken by the ESSA-7 satellite on November 23, 1968. One of the photographs showed the North Pole covered by the usual cloud; the other one showed the same area without clouds, revealing a huge hole where the pole was supposed to be located. Little did ESSA’s team know that these images would awake the interest of researchers around the globe who had already suspected of anomalies at the north Pole, anomalies that would fuel the research of unidentified flying objects that according to many, were deeply connected to the North Pole and the hollow Earth theory.
For a long time, ufologist Ray Palmer and others believed that the Earth was in fact hollow and that UFOs came and returned to a civilization of superior beings hidden in its unexplored interior. In 1970, with support from the images that proved the existence of the hole at the North Pole, Palmer was finally able to conclude that the underground civilization existed and that it could probably be reached through the holes in the North and South poles.
Vice Admiral Richard E. Byrd of the US Navy was a distinguished pioneer aviator and polar explorer who flew over the North Pole on May 9, 1926 and led numerous expeditions to Antarctica, including a flight over the South Pole on 29 November 1929. Between 1946 and 1947, he and his team carried out a large-scale operation called “High Jump”, during which he discovered and mapped 1,390,000 km² of the Antarctic territory.
The famous Byrd expeditions first entered in dispute of the hollow Earth theroies when several articles and books like Worlds beyond the Poles by Amadeo Giannini claimed that Byrd had not flown over the Pole but inwardly through large holes leading into the Earth. Ray Palmer, mainly based on the book by Giannini, introduced his theory in the December 1959 issue of its magazine and obtained very positive results form the audience because of his theories and ideas regarding the Hollow Earth theory.
According to Giannini and Palmer, Vice Admiral Byrd announced on February of 1947, just before venturing into a 2,750 km journey across the North Pole, “I like to see the land beyond the Pole. That area beyond the Pole is the center of the Great Enigma.”
According to Giannini and Palmer during Vice Admiral Byrd’s alleged flight over the North Pole in 1947, Admiral Byrd radioed that he saw beneath him, not snow, but areas of land with mountains, forests, vegetation, lakes and rivers and in the undergrowth, a strange animal that looked like a mammoth. Also in January of 1956, after leading an expedition to Antarctica, Admiral Byrd had stated that his expedition had explored 3,700 km beyond the South Pole and also just before his death, Byrd had said there existed a land beyond the Pole that was “an enchanted continent in the sky, a permanent mystery of Earth.” That land, according to other theories, was the legendary Rainbow City, home to a fabulous lost civilization.
To Giannini and Palmer, these stories from Admiral Byrd did nothing but confirm what they had always suspected: that the Earth has “strange” Poles, and that the Earth was essentially like a donut, where at the center, these is an access going many kilometers into the earth, forming a giant hole passing through the axis of the earth, from one pole to another.
Due to geographical reasons, it is impossible to fly 2,750 miles beyond the North Pole or 3,700 miles beyond the South Pole without seeing water, according to Palmer, Admiral Byrd must have flown into the huge convex cavities of the poles. Researchers also believe that, had he ahead, it would have taken him to the secret base of UFO’s that belongs to the hidden civilization inside our planet
The possibility that the earth is hollow, and that it can be accessed through the North and South poles, and that secret civilizations flourish within it, has spurred the imagination of people through centuries. Evidence of this we find in the history of countless ancient civilizations. The Babylonian hero Gilgamesh visited his ancestor Utnapishtim in the bowels of the earth; in Greek mythology, Orpheus tries to rescue Eurydice from the underground hell; it was said that the Pharaohs of Egypt communicated with the underworld, which could be accessed via secret tunnels hidden in the pyramids; and Buddhists believed (and still believe) that millions of people live in Agharta, an underground paradise ruled by the king of the world. So just when you think that these theories could be nothing more than excessive imaginations, you actually come across evidence in ancient history pointing towards the possibility of a world inside Earth.
Before the advancements in technology of the twentieth century man could only guess what planet Earth actually looked like. Today, the Earth has been photographed from space and analyzed with high-tech equipment, allowing researchers and scientists to get to know ur planet in a much more complex way.
Leonard Euler, a mathematical genius of the eighteenth century, concluded that the Earth was hollow, containing a central sun and was inhabited; and Dr. Edmund Halley, discoverer of Comet Halley and Royal Astronomer of England also believed that the Earth was hollow on the inside with three “Floors”. Regrettably none of these theories were supported scientifically, on the other hand these theories were present in several works of fiction on the same subject, the most important of which were The Adventures of Arthur Gordon Pym by Edgar Allan Poe (1833), in which the hero and his companion have a terrifying encounter with beings from within the Earth; and Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne (1864), where an adventurous teacher, his nephew and a guide manage to enter into the interior of the Earth through an extinct volcano finding new skies, gigantic seas seas and gigantic prehistoric reptiles that populate the forests Earth’s interior.
The belief in a hollow Earth was so widespread that even Edgar Rice Burroughs, the celebrated author of Tarzan, felt compelled to write Tarzan in the bowels of the Earth (1929). Thanks to these and other science fiction titles, interest in the hollow earth theories has is still alive and has kept the interest flames burning in the possibility that the Earth is or once was hollow and that it hides countless mysteries.
The possibility of the Hollow Earth theory has also been present every time when we see one of those strange UFO videos where unidentified objects enter volcanoes, like the Popocatepetl.
So are the UFO sightings really related to extraterrestrial beings visiting our planet? Or is there a possibility that these strange sightings are actually connected to beings living inside the Earth, like the Hollow Earth Theory. All of these theories fueled researchers to search for “lost” civilizations like Atlantis.
So what’s to the Hollow Earth theory?
It is possible that “the land beyond the Pole” and “Great Enigma” refried to by Byrd are actually reference to unexplored regions of Earth rather than inside the Earth itself. The “enchanted continent in the sky” could have been only a description of a common phenomenon in Antarctic latitudes: a kind of mirage that brings the reflection of distant lands. All of the wild goose chases can be attributed to misinterpretation of words actually.
According to the diary of Byrd, “We have flown a total of about 25,900 km² beyond the Pole. As expected, although disappointing to say, we have not observed any significant feature beyond the Pole. Only the immense white desert that covered the horizon. As for the legendary Rainbow city it might have been just the description referring to the geological features: The planet is composed of crust, mantle and core; no hollow areas than in the imagination
However, could it be that the hollow Earth theory is correct? Well its something that cannot be disproved. there are countless stories that can lead you to believe that there is something inside the Earth beyond a core, we have seen it in ancient mythology of countless stories that lead toward the interior of the planet. Some believe that there is nothing to find and that the theories regarding civilizations living deep under the surface of the Earth are spikes of imagination.
Given the fact that the physical properties and structure of the interior of the Earth can be measured today “exactly” with seismographs and electronic measurements researchers can conclude that far from being hollow, the Earth is composed of four main layers: the crust, mantle, core and the nucleolus. The crust of granite and basalt rock has a thickness of 30-40 km. Under the crust researchers believe the mantle is found, which extends down to around 2,900 km. It is a solid formation that consists of silicates of magnesium, iron, calcium and aluminum. Below that we find the core, believed to be primarily composed of melted iron. Finally, at a depth of about 5,090 km is the nucleolus, which may be solid as a result of freezing iron under extraordinary pressure. Although many details are only hypotheses waiting to be reviewed as sciences progress allowing all of the theories to be confirmed.
As for the huge hole that can be seen in the photograph of the Arctic, Well the explanation is ridiculously simple:
The picture is a mosaic of images taken by the satellite for 24 hours, showing the Earth from different angles. The images were processed by a computer to form a complete view of the Earth as if the observer was located in a point directly above the Pole. During those 24 hours, some of the points in equatorial latitudes received sunlight for some time, and look bright in the composite photograph. But the regions near the Pole were in darkness, therefore there is an unlit area in the center of the photo. So apparently there are no holes at the poles and the Earth isn’t hollow as some believed it to be for centuries.
“Ten zuiden van Area 51 liggen buitenaardse schepen opgeslagen”
“Ten zuiden van Area 51 liggen buitenaardse schepen opgeslagen”
Area 51 is een topgeheime vliegbasis van de CIA en het Amerikaanse leger waar onder meer spionagevliegtuigen worden getest.
“Voor zover wij weten zijn daar geen UFO’s of aliens,” zegt MUFON-directeur Jan Harzan in een interview met Forbes.
“Maar er is ook nog een gebied ten zuiden van Area 51 genaamd S4,” gaat hij verder. “Op basis van informatie van ingewijden kunnen we zeggen dat daar wordt gewerkt aan geborgen buitenaardse schepen.”
Verbergen
Als de president of andere functionarissen stellen dat er geen UFO’s of aliens zijn in Area 51, liegen ze technisch gesproken niet omdat ze kunnen worden gevonden in S4, aldus Harzan.
Waarschuwingsbord bij Area 51
“Als ze niets te verbergen hebben moeten we die basis toch gewoon kunnen bezoeken?” vraagt hij zich af.
Volgens Harzan kun je topgeheime Amerikaanse vliegtuigen en buitenaardse schepen gemakkelijk uit elkaar houden.
Bemachtigd
“Onze toestellen zijn erg hoekig en hebben uitsteeksels,” zegt hij. “Ook kun je duidelijk naden zien.”
“Het oppervlak van buitenaardse schepen is volkomen glad en alles is geïntegreerd,” vervolgt hij. “Er zijn geen naden of uitsteeksels te zien.”
Harzan stelt dat de Amerikaanse overheid al buitenaardse technologie heeft bemachtigd door te sleutelen aan vliegende schotels.
Kloppen
“Eén bron die ik kan aanraden is kolonel Corso,” zegt Harzan. “In zijn boek The Day After Roswell zegt hij dat hij aan het hoofd stond van een afdeling van het Pentagon die moest onderzoeken hoe de technologie van gecrashte UFO’s precies werkte.”
“Een andere bron is Bob Lazar die claimt in S4 te hebben gewerkt aan geborgen buitenaardse toestellen,” gaat hij verder.
“Zijn verhaal is uitgeplozen door verslaggever George Knapp van KLAS-TV en blijkt te kloppen,” zegt hij.
Harzan merkt op dat er nog meer mensen zijn die zich hierover hebben uitgesproken, maar dat de inlichtingengemeenschap steeds probeert om deze mensen in diskrediet te brengen.
Every so often, we hear about a strange radio signal winging its way Earthward from the cold, lifeless depths of outer space. Suddenly, bored news personnel around the world come alive and begin churning out sensational stories with lurid headlines promising that this is really it — our first contact with alien minds.
In fact, radio astronomers have a long history of detecting mysterious signals that just don't seem to fit into their carefully ordered vision of the universe. For instance, pulsars were initially thought to be intelligent signals from beyond the solar system. When discovered by astronomers in Cambridge, England, the first pulsar signals were dubbed "LGM" —that's "little green men," in case you didn't know.
The famous—or infamous—”Wow!” signal detected in 1977.Big Ear Radio Observatory and North American AstroPhysical Observatory
And who could forget the famous "Wow!" signal of 1977, detected by astronomer Jerry Ehrman at Ohio State University's "Big Ear" radio telescope. It was a 72-second anomalous transmission in the 1,420 MHz range — the natural frequency of neutral hydrogen emissions, which physicists Philip Morrison and Giuseppe Cocconi speculated might be the medium of ET communications, given its cosmic ubiquity. The "Wow!" signal is still unexplained, and its like has never been seen again.
These instances were hardly the first —Nikola Tesla and Guglielmo Marconi, those indefatigable pioneers of technology and radio, claimed to have heard interplanetary transmissions in the early years of the 20th Century.
"The changes I noted were taking place periodically," Tesla wrote of the "signals" he detectedduring his work in Colorado Springs, "and with such a clear suggestion of number and order that they were not traceable to any cause then known to me…The feeling is constantly growing on me that I had been the first to hear the greeting of one planet to another. "
Alas, we are still awaiting that momentous day when the announcement of such a communication will be verified as true.
It isn't aliens, folks
The alien "signal" in question needn't be restricted to radio or other electromagnetic transmissions encoding deliberate messages; it could be something as innocuous as the absence of a signal — repeated or arranged so as to arouse a suspicion of intelligent origin. For instance, there's the controversy surrounding the mysterious "Tabby's Star" (KIC 8462852), which has been amply reported in Futurism. Scuttlebutt has it that Tabby's Star might be surrounded by some sort of alien megastructure that's causing the astonishing dips in the star's bolometric luminosity — at least, that's what some astronomers have suggested, with tongues at least partially planted in cheek.
Emmanuel Ocbazghi
But let's not deceive ourselves. Invoking extraterrestrial intelligence to explain a mystery that, for the moment, confounds us to no end and monkeys up our cherished understanding of things is a bit of a deus ex machina —like the god swinging down from on high in the old Greek plays, happily arrived at just the right time to resolve all the unspliced threads of the plot.
The truth is, a mysterious signal is just that — and nothing more. To say it must be of extraterrestrial origin is to say precisely nothing at all; sure, it could be an alien signal, because intelligence could be responsible for virtually anything. In a universe that doubtless has many more surprises in store for us, it's safer to search for alternative explanations.
As for Tabby's Star? It's probably just surrounded by a swarm of comets, asteroids, and planetary debris — that, or some equally prosaic and entirely dull explanation.
Now, if a giant alien mothership lands atop Devil's Tower in Wyoming, pukes out some abducted WWII airmen, and beings playing strange musical tones, well that's probably an extraterrestrial signal.
Detailed encounter of Japan AIrlines jumbo cargo jet with massive UFO over Alaska in 1986. Video includes actual recorded cockpit communications with FAA tower and military radar. The end of the video includes testimony from FAA Chief of Accidents and Investigations who said the CIA, FBI and the Presidents scientific team got involved and were excited to have over 30 minutes of radar data of an extraterrestrial craft. Then everyone involved was sworn to secrecy by the CIA to never discuss this again...which the FAA chief obviously ignored. The FAA chief admitted the truth was covered up and he still has a copy of the data to prove it even though the CIA thought he turned over everything he had.
During the next month over Alaska, two separate incidents, one military, occurred where they saw this same alien craft and this also is recorded conversation between the pilot and tower. The actual FAA recorded audio tapes which are also played during this video.
