Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    RESEARCHER CLAIMS REPTILIAN ALIENS HAVE BEEN ABDUCTING HUMANS AND CREATING HYBRIDS

    The researcher Len Kasten has made sensational claims, which he says he has gleaned from undisclosed for reportedly reputable sources, that an alien race referred to as the Reptilians have been abducting humans for nefarious purposes. According to Kasten, this activity has been going on for thousands of years and showed no sign of abating anytime soon.

    RESEARCHER CLAIMS THAT HUMANS ARE BEING CONTROLLED BY A REPTILIAN RACE

    Kasten claims that human beings do not originate from the planet Earth but initially evolved in a constellation referred to as Lyra. Some time ago, a reptilian race from the Draco system invaded and forced the human beings to flee to this solar system where humans took up residence on Earth and Mars. Today, the Martians live in a closed and highly secretive underground society while the reptilians live among human beings on the planet Earth.

    According to Kasten, these reptilian beings abduct thousands of people every year for experimentation purposes and food. He says that they prefer the blood of children as it is less polluted than that of adult humans.

    Kasten also claims that members of the reptilian race permanently live on this planet in underground bunkers. Despite the fact that they conceal themselves from the human race they manage to wield a huge amount of influence over society through organizations such as the Illuminati. Their goal is to completely control the world’s populations to keep human beings subdued. The primary method by which they ensure the subjugation of humans is by controlling banking and other economic institutions. Kasten claims that the last wave of intense reptilian activity was during the Second World War when the alien beings seized effective control of both the Third Reich and the Imperial Japanese Government. However, their plans to utilize the Axis powers to secure complete world domination failed because of the volatility of key human figures such as Adolf Hitler who improved impossible for the reptilians to control effectively. 

    WHY DO THE REPTILIAN ALIENS WANT FULL CONTROL OVER EARTH?

    Kasten writes that the reason that the reptilians are so keen to seize complete control of the planet Earth is that they are afraid of what human beings could do if they were released from continual subjugation. Intriguingly, he says that most humans are completely unaware that the race is endowed with certain ‘powers,' however, he did not explicitly state what these powers might be. Instead, he tantalizingly claims that these powers will become apparent as more and more people become aware of what is happening.

    Scientists Speculate Mysterious Radio Bursts Are Powering Alien Ships

    No one's sure what fast radio bursts are, so some Harvard scientists asked: Why not aliens?

    Somewhere out there, aliens might be using huge, mysterious bursts of energy to sail ships through space.

    No, this isn't some UFO conspiracy. It's a new theory from a pair of Harvard scientists who've been studying fast radio bursts. Those are sudden flashes of radio pulses from beyond our galaxy that our radio telescopes only catch glimpses of.

    And the bursts are really weird. Astronomers have only ever found fewer than 20 of them. Sometimes they repeat, but other times they're a one-off burst of energy lasting only thousandths of a second.

    The new theory goes something like this: A super-advanced alien species is using these incredibly powerful bursts of energy to push themselves around the universe on light sails.

    Essentially, these theoretical aliens are riding a sailboat through outer space, and they're creating wind for their sails. But scientists think the sailboat might be the size of a planet, and that's why the bursts of energy are so big.

    It's not as crazy as it may sound. Solar sails are a project we humans have been working on for a while, and some scientists think they're the best option we have for interstellar spaceflight.

    The theory is pretty fantastical; even the authors admit that. They say they just want to put the idea out there and let the data "judge" it later.

    ‘Life’ adviser Kevin Fong on balancing fact with fiction: ‘Don’t get in the way of the story’

    A doctor specialising in space medicine, Kevin Fong has worked with NASA and the European Space Agency and is one of the experts on the March 24 release.

    Space as imagined by Hollywood teems with existential threats. In Daniel Espinosa’s upcoming film Life, it is an extraterrestrial life form found on Mars. Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds are among a crew of six astronauts aboard the International Space Station who successfully intercept a probe returning from Mars with a sample of alien life. This organism turns out not to be as benign as they initially presume.

    Drawing on tropes from both horror and science-fiction, the March 24 release portrays the astronauts’ scramble to contain this alien life form before it can escape the ISS and obliterate all life on Earth.

    As a critical element of the science-fiction genre is verisimilitude, the filmmakers called on experts who have worked in the field of space. One of them was Kevin Fong, a doctor who specialises in medicine in space and other extreme conditions. Fong has worked intermittently with the United States of America’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration for around a decade and also with the European Space Agency. He has a degree in Astrophysics and Medicine from University College, London. In an interview with Scroll.in, Fong describes his experience of working on Life, the constraints that exist in space, and why scientists need to learn when to back off from film scripts.

    Science-fiction films have come a long way since Ridley Scott’s Alien, which is perhaps the film to which people will compare Life. What has changed between now and then?

    Alien is a very high benchmark. I think what has changed actually more than anything else is that although you want to compare it to Alien, it’s not the same type of film. Alien is set in a very far flung future, where people are in hyper-sleep and exploring star systems very far away. This is happening on your doorstep, 250 miles above the surface of the Earth in a space station that exists.

    I think what’s changed is that since those films, the theme of space exploration has become something we understand much better. And since the launch of the International Space Station [in 1998], there has always been a human being in space. What that means is that space is no longer a place that we temporarily visit. It’s a place in which we live and work. In that there comes an idea that there are people whose entire lives is spent in this very hazardous environment where everything is precariously balanced – and then what happens when you introduce an extra problem into that mix.

    Although we talk about it being science fiction, it is almost now just fiction. In many ways, this is a drama that takes place in an industrial setting. It is just that this industrial setting happens to be space, but now space is a place people inhabit.

    How closely involved were you with Life? Did your role begin at the scripting stage or on set?

    We were involved from the outset, from before they started filming, when they were just storyboarding the scenes and then we spent quite a few days on set, helping mainly with the medical scenes for me because I have worked for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration as a space life sciences director for a while.

    So I talked about space medicine and to the cast, about the experience of being a doctor. I don’t know what they gleaned from that. It was an interesting experience to have people ask you about what you do professionally in a very different way. Actors have a different process of trying to understand your experience rather than the mechanics of your job.

    In the film, the astronauts encounter stressful situations that require quick responses. Given the constraints and physical effects of space on the body, how will they be able to deal medically with this?

    Space has a lot of deep and profound effects on the human body. When you first go to space, it takes a long while to acclimatise to it. The first two or three days, the astronauts can often feel quite awful. It does affect your body and your ability to track moving objects. But after a while, you adapt to that and you begin to be able to function well enough for everyday tasks. There are a lot of impacts on the body due to spaceflight. It affects your balance and coordination, your heart and circulation, your breathing. It affects your entire body.

    But amid all that, there are medical constraints, which to me as a doctor is what makes that environment quite interesting. You’re constrained in the kind of skills you can take. In this film, there are two doctors in the space station [including Jake Gyllenhaal], which is unusual. You’re constrained in the number of skilled physicians you have, so in my hospital, when I encounter trouble, i have any number of colleagues who know more, whether I’m asking for a cardiac specialist, or a pulmonary specialist to back me up in intensive care or in an operation theatre.

    In space, you’re a lone gun and on your own. Then you’re restricted by the power. You don’t have the same volume or the same weight. You can’t take a lot of equipment up there. You’re not up there having CT scanners or MRI scanners. So it is a real expedition experience as a doctor. I’ve been on expeditions as a doctor and it’s a much more uncomfortable experience than being in a hospital setting surrounded by all your people and your equipment.

    There are two doctors on board the ISS in this film. How do you feel about that as a doctor yourself?

    I worked with NASA on and off for ten years. I saw doctors who looked after astronauts. I have friends who are doctors and astronauts. I have seen them up close at work and worked alongside them. So the portrayals were very faithful in different ways. I was impressed as an outsider to watch this process happen. This cast and crew and scriptwriters take people and shape them into being believable as clinicians, forget the fact that they were on a space station. To me, they were believable as clinicians in the way they behaved.

    We have had missions before with doctors in the cruise. And there have been in my memory a number of missions where you have more than one medically trained person in the crew. All of that is within the bounds of reality. And again, the filmmakers and scriptwriters didn’t overstep the mark in terms of the capabilities they gave these people. The temptation here is to endow these doctors with far more capability than they have on the space station. The space station does not have a lot of medical equipment. Their main recourse if things go wrong is to try and evacuate early and come home. When that happens, you really are in a lot of trouble.

    I thought all of that was really well played. I was most closely involved in the medical scenes, which was really just about making the performance of the doctor believable. Nothing annoys me more than being a doctor and watching a medical drama where they hold the stethoscope the wrong way around or they try to do something with a cardiac defibrillator that is actually impossible or would never be done in real life. So it was quite nice for me to be able to exorcise some of those demons – to say, ‘No, this is wrong,’ and then have people listen to you.

    Science fiction films are often a gateway for children to pursue careers in science. As a scientist and a film adviser, how do you balance creative demands with scientific reality?

    You mustn’t get in the way of the story. That’s really important for a scientist in this environment to understand. There’s a temptation to think that this is my territory and it must look truly to real life. But the truth about science is of course that quite a lot of it is spending an awful lot of time reading books and looking at microscopes and doing stuff that actually is quite slow and ponderous and doesn’t look good on film. You have to be realistic about the needs of the story and the balancing of needs of reality.

    The trick is not making the most realistic portrayal that can be made. Because that is a documentary. The trick lies in blending the needs of the story as closely as possible with what is real. When that is done well, you get films that are really beautiful. That is a real high-wire trip trying to get that balance right.

    I think people get it wrong in both directions. I think scientists can be too pedantic about science, but also in a story, people might ride roughshod over some very fundamental things. When you get the partnership right, I think it can work very well.

    Although Venus is easier to reach than Mars, scientists and space agencies around the world show little interest in exploring the planet. Why is it that they have so much enthusiasm in examining Mars but not our neighboring planet, Venus?

    Flashes of bright light seen across the cosmos could feasibly be created by intelligent aliens; a lost Indian moon probe was found; a fashion show featured a rocket launch, and a group of scientists proposed a new definition that would make Pluto a planet again. Here are our picks for the best space stories of the week.  

    An alien spacecraft? 

    Could unexplained flashes of bright light seen flickering across the universe be signs of advanced alien civilizations? A new study (led by a Harvard astrophysicist) investigates whether a phenomenon known as fast radio bursts could be generated by a megastructure built by aliens, as well as the possible purpose such a structure would serve.

    A mega eclipse movie

    The "Eclipse Megamovie Project" is seeking volunteers to contribute footage to what could be the longest movie of a total solar eclipse ever compiled. If you have a high-quality camera (like a DSLR), you can get training on how to film the Aug. 21, 2017, total solar eclipse. The project's organizers said they will also release an app that will let people contribute footage using cellphones and lower-quality cameras. [Full story: How to Use Your Phone or DSLR to Help Make an Eclipse 'Megamovie']

    Meteor madness

    The streams of debris that cause meteor showers on Earth follow more complex paths than scientists previously thought. A new animation based on crowdsourced footage of falling meteors, plots more than 45 meteor-shower debris paths through the solar system.

    Ice volcanoes on Ceres

    New evidence suggests there are cryovolcanoes on Ceres, spewing a very salty water mixture toward the surface of the dwarf planet. Salty deposits are known to exist on Ceres' surface, and these could have welled up from beneath the surface, like magma squeezing through cracks in the Earth's crust. [Full story: Briny Ice Oozes in Dwarf Planet Ceres' Ice Volcanoes]

    Make Pluto a planet (again)

    There's a new campaign to once again change the definition of a "planet" so that Pluto will be included. Members of NASA's New Horizons mission to Pluto are behind the new proposed definition, which they will present to their colleagues at a meeting this month.

    Archaeologists have discovered a colossal statue, possibly depicting Egyptian pharaoh Ramesses the Great, in a muddy pit in a Cairo suburb, Egypt's antiquities ministry announced today (March 9).

    Split in fragments, the quartzite statue was found by Egyptian and German archaeologists in the heavily populated Ain Shams and Matariya districts, where the ancient city of Heliopolis — the cult center for sun-god worship — once stood. [Read more about the discovery.]

    Young men who take drugs to treat hair loss or an enlarged prostate may experience an unwanted side effect — erectile dysfunction — and the problem can persist long after these men stop taking the drugs, a new study finds.

    One of the drugs in the study was finasteride, which is sold under the brand names Propecia and Proscar. Finasteride affects how cells make testosterone; it may be taken for hair growth or to shrink the prostate. [Read more about the long-lasting effect.]

    Neanderthals once dined on woolly rhinoceroses and wild sheep, and even self-medicated with painkillers and antibiotics, according to a new analysis of their dental plaque.

    But the diets of Neanderthals — the closest known extinct human relative, which co-existed and sometimes bred with humans before going extinct about 40,000 years ago — varied depending on where they lived. [Read more about our ancient relatives.]

    ANTARCTICA: NASA IMAGES REVEAL TRACES OF ANCIENT HUMAN SETTLEMENT UNDERNEATH 2.3 KM OF ICE

    antarctica-pyramid

    WASHINGTON |

    Recently released remote sensing photography of NASA’s Operation IceBridge mission in Antarctica led to a fascinating discovery when images revealed what some experts believe could be the existence of a possible ancient human settlement lying beneath an impressive 2.3 kilometers of ice.

    The intriguing discovery was made during aircraft tests trials of NASA’s Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) lidar technology set to be launched on the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) in 2017, that aims to monitor changes in polar ice.

    “There’s very little margin for error when it comes to individual photons hitting on individual fiber optics, that is why we were so surprised when we noticed these abnormal features on the lidar imagery,” explains Nathan Borrowitz, IceBridge’s project scientist and sea ice researcher with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

    “As of now we can only speculate as to what these features are but the launching of ICESat-2 in 2017 could lead to other major discoveries and a better understanding of Antarctica’s geomorphological features” he adds.

    Although NASA scientist Nathan Borrowitz claims the infrared images are definitely intriguing, other experts claim they are clearly the proof of ancient human engineering

    A human settlement buried under 2.3 km of ice

    Leading archeologist, Ashoka Tripathi, of the Department of Archaeology at the University of Calcutta believes the images show clear evidence of an ancient human settlement beneath the ice sheet.

    archeo-india

    “These are clearly features of some sort of human-made structure, resembling some sort of pyramidal structure. The patterns clearly show nothing we should expect from natural geomorphological formations found in nature. We clearly have here evidence of human engineering. The only problem is that these photographs were taken in Antarctica under 2 kilometers of ice. That is clearly the puzzling part, we do not have any explanation for this at the moment,” he admits.

    “These pictures just reflect a small portion of Antarctica’s total land mass. There are possibly many other additional sites that are covered over with ice. It just shows us how easy it is to underestimate both the size and scale of past human settlements,” says Dr Tripathi.

    Remnants of a lost civilization

    Historian and cartographer at the University of Cambridge, Christopher Adam, believes there might be a rationnal explanation.

    piri-reis

    The map of Turkish admiral Piri Reis in 1513 AD shows the “ice less” coastline of Antarctica

    “One of histories most puzzling maps is that of the Turkish admiral Piri Reis in 1513 AD which successfully mapped the coastline of Antarctica over 500 years ago. What is most fascinating about this map is that it shows the coastline of Antarctica without any ice. How is this possible when images of the subglacial coastline of Antarctica were only seen for the first time after the development of ground-penetrating radar in 1958? Is it possible Antarctica has not always been covered under such an ice sheet? This could be evidence that it is a possibility” he acknowledges.

    « A slight pole shift or displacement of the axis of rotation of the Earth in historical times is possibly the only rational explanation that comes to mind but we definitely need more research done before we jump to any conclusion.”

    ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2), part of NASA’s Earth Observing System, is a planned satellite mission for measuring ice sheet mass elevation, sea ice freeboard as well as land topography and vegetation characteristics, and is set to launch in may 2017.

    HUGE UFO LEAVES THROUGH PORTAL: Footage of flying diamond over sea goes viral

    A STRIKING video which appears to show a huge bizarre diamond-shaped UFO hovering over the sea before it disappears "through a portal" has gone viral.

    Suspicious UFO captured on camera by Danish Fisherman

    The footage, uploaded to YouTube by the channel Section 51 2, shows a distant shot of a giant hovering rhombus-shaped UFO with a separate bright orb moving around it.

    It is seen to rise into clouds above as if disappearing through a portal to another dimension.

    The Section 51 2 website claims it was filmed in November 2016 by Danish fishermen.

    However, it includes no real details about the alleged sighting.

    An article accompanying the video on the Section 51 2 website makes no further reference to the alleged sighting in the video.

    It instead discusses a 2011 sighting over the North Sea.

    It is likely the video is a clever hoax made using CGI technology.

    UFO-Portal

    SECTION512*YouTube

    A still from the video showing the 'CGI' UFO.

    One viewer posted on YouTube: "You guys are doing a great job with the CGI, I hope one day you guys could make a vid of ufos fighting and stuff."

    But, amazingly, some thought it could be genuine footage with claims it looked like a legendary mythical UFO called the Black Knight Satellite.

    Margaret Bu Shey posted: "Everyone handles their fear or unexpected events differently. 

    "To discount a video because someone isn't screaming limits one's possibilities of finding out the truth/facts of the matter."

    And, Robert Kimball said: "The large shape is a sampling collector that will be beamed into a large mother ship cloaked in the dark cloud. 

    "The little light orb is a small sensor ship making sure it is safe to beam up the sample. 

    UFO-Portal

    SECTION512*Youtube

    Section 51 2 is on several UFO blacklists for running blatantly hoax videos.

    Are the objects flying over Giza pyramids alien UFOs?

    You guys are doing a great job with the CGI, I hope one day you guys could make a vid of ufos fighting and stuff.

    YouTube viewer

    "We have benevolent ET friends who are serious about helping clean up our mess - starting with the ocean. be happy."

    But, Section 51 2 has been outed by serious UFO investigators and hoax busters as regularly using GCI effects to add extraordinarily clear-looking UFOs to its videos.

    The website and channel features on many UFO investigators "blacklists" of so-called UFO sites to avoid because of its alleged use of hoaxes, which "discredit genuine research".

    The 'about section' on its website suggests it broadcasts genuine footage, saying: "Sometimes we have no words to explain what we see, sometimes we can see that it's just hoax. 

    "The purpose of Section 51 is to make you ask yourself these questions about UFOs... Many UFO reports from soldiers exist all around the world but some people want to hide the truth. 

    "Section 51 shows you UFO incidents reported by people and most of the time by soldiers in wartime."

    But there is a disclaimer on its YouTube page, which suggests otherwise.

    It states: "These videos are for entertainment purposes only.

    "We cannot authenticate all videos. Viewers are free to make their own conclusions." 

    Scott Brando, who runs hoax-busting website ufoofintererst.org, said the channel "clearly" broadcast out and out hoaxes which had been digitally made.

    Express.co.uk has contacted Section 51 2 a number of times over whether the videos are genuine but is yet to receive a response.

    Two Identical UFOs Filmed Over Florida and New York

    triangle-ufos-usa

    Various reports suggest that a significant number of people witnessed a UFO in Homestead, Florida on February 15, 2017. The UFO was so mysterious as an aircraft mechanic with many years in aviation could not explain the video of the alleged mass UFO sighting.

    Interestingly, a second video showing the same UFOs surfaced on March 3, 2017, and made the rounds online. The unnamed witness was in his room fixing the blinds. He usually looked out of his window to see the moon. He was surprised to see lights beaming from a distance. The sighting took place in Jamaica, NY.

    The witness was sure they were not airplanes because he had been seeing planes from a distance during the night and he knew they did not beam as bright or as big as the mysterious lights that he could not explain.

    The witness went on to say that he noticed the objects many months, but not paid attention to it as he thought they were just from the JFK airport on the right side.

    Airplanes or helicopters are a regular sight around the area with JFK airport stationed nearby.

    The witness also initially thought they were just motorbike headlights that appeared flashing when a tree was in front of them while the wind blew the leaves around. He observed on the last beam of light on the right side continually drifted off to the right and reappeared a few seconds again.

    The witness claimed to be into cosmology, and his UFO sighting could be his wonderful, amazing discovery yet.

    Eyewitness Baffle To See An Apparent Decloaked V-Shaped UFO

    triangle-ufo

    TV News recently presents the UFO case seriously, and the MUFON investigator appears to handle it very well. It has been reported that UFO can materialize out of thin air, not by magic but by decloaking technology.

    Debunking a UFO sighting is not that easy as most think. It needs evidence and not just mere words to do such thing. Without proof, debunking is just a bluff to make false news and profits to those networks who want to earn money out of it.

    The annual UFO sighting report in Mutual UFO Network in Houston average around 80 speculated sightings. The data did not include the ones that are not reported. Fletcher Gray, one of the renowned UFO experts, offers a reason why most UFO sightings are not involving UFOs. However, there’s one case that baffles him big time.

    An orange light was spotted over the Katy territory, coasting around. Tourists in the ground speculated it was a UFO. Gray said that it was glinting as it traveled during that time in the sky.

    Fake News About a Secret Nazi UFO Base In Antarctica Refuses to Die

    This researcher at Cambridge has a PhD and still had to take time to prove why the Nazi Antarctic UFO base is a hoax.

    Before we get into this let's make one thing clear: the secret Nazi UFO base in Antarctica doesn't exist. The Nazis did go to Antarctica, but they didn't stash priceless European art in a subterranean Antarctic lair where they also happened to be developing flying saucers. That would be a totally insane thing to believe.

    But as recently as 2016, articles mentioning the possible existence of this very thing can be found in tabloids like The Mirror, which reported on a possible Nazi UFO under Antarctic ice, as well as The Daily Star, which suggested that the Nazi UFO base may have ties to the giant alien ice pyramids under Antarctica.

    In the age of Fake News and flat earthers, it's not hard to see how an outlandish idea could retain currency. But it's remarkable persistence over the half century prompted Colin Summerhayes, a prominent marine geologist and oceanographer at Cambridge, to write a 21-page, peer-reviewed paper outlining all the reasons why the Nazis totally didn't build a secret Antarctic base. Published a little over a decade ago in the quarterly academic journal Polar Review, Summerhayes' paper is an interesting survey of the paranoid conspiracy theories that began with a secret Nazi mission to Antarctica in January, 1939.

    Months before the outbreak of World War II, Nazi Germany sent a small expedition to Antarctica aboard a vessel called the Schwabenland. According to Summerhayes, the expedition was prompted by German fears about being cut out of the whaling industry by Norway and Britain, which made large claims to portions of the Antarctic continent. So the Nazis launched their own expedition to Antarctica with the intention of claiming some of the seventh continent for themselves and establishing a base for the German whaling fleet there.

    Read More: Why is the Flat-Earth Conspiracy Still a Thing?

    Although this would end up being the Nazi's only visit to Antarctica, rumors of a secret Nazi base harboring Hitler and his inner circle near the South Pole began to spread immediately after the end of the war. The occasion of these rumors was the arrival of a German U-boat at an Argentine naval base in July, 1945, two months after the Nazis surrendered. Newspapers around the world picked up a fallacious Argentine news report that the U-boat had carried Hitler and other ranking Nazis out of Germany to the secret base on Antarctica.

    Unrecognized Nazi claim on Antarctica, known as New Swabia. Image: Wikimedia Commons

    The initial report of this rumor, spread by a Hungarian exile Ladislas Szabo who was living in Argentina at the time, was propped up by a book published by Szabo two years later titled (based on, it seems that even the bureau had its suspicions about the escape of the Nazi leader). Szabo's rumors only continued to pick up steam, and eventually in which Hitler did in fact die in a Berlin bunker, but his ashes and other Nazis treasures had been transported to Antarctica where they were stashed in a "very special natural ice cave in the Muhlig-Hofmann Mountains."Hitler is Still Alive recently declassified FBI files warped into a story

    Despite the fact that many captured Nazis offered irrefutable evidence to the contrary of these claims, the rumor of Hitler's Antarctic base persisted. This was, in part, due to a covert Antarctic mission carried out by the US military in 1947 called Operation Highjump, as well as the well-documented British military presence in Antarctica throughout the war. According to conspiracy theorists, both the United States and Britain unsuccessfully attacked the secret Nazi base multiple times in the late 40s, but only succeeded in destroying it by dropping three atomic bombs above the base in 1958.

    Ultimately, however, Summerhayes isn't convinced. Although he does acknowledge that "there is an element of truth in all these tales," the evidence doesn't seem to add up to a secret Nazi base in Antarctica.

    In the first place, there is a pretty exhaustive recap in both German scientific literature and recovered wartime documents of the 1939 expedition to Antarctica. While these documents do outline the marine science and mapping efforts of the mission, there is no indication at all that the Nazis had ever decided on a fitting location for an Antarctic base, much less had begun to build one. As Summerhayes points out, when Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen built a small hut in Antarctica in 1911, it took them 14 days and required the use of 80 dogs.

    By contrast, the German expedition was only in Antarctica for a month, and spent most of its time going up and down the coast collecting marine samples and launching planes to do surveying work. There is also no evidence that the ship had motorized equipment or dogs on board, which would've made the task of ferrying supplies around the Antarctic nearly impossible, especially to build a massive underground complex where there were "hangars for strange planes" and bunkers for the development of advanced weaponry.

    And what about Operation Highjump, the secret mission launched by the US in Antarctica, supposedly to take out the Nazi base? The largest expedition to ever go to Antarctica, Operation Highjump consisted of 4700 men, 33 aircraft, and 13 ships—which certainly sounds like an invasion of sorts. While this was undoubtedly a military exercise, its stated purpose was to train the US Navy to operate in freezing, polar conditions in preparation for a possible war with the Soviet Union in the Arctic

    Okay, Summerhayes, but how do you explain the Nazi UFOs in Antarctica, huh? These claims, first advanced in UFOs: Nazi Secret Weapon, a 1975 book published by a Canadian neo-nazi publishing house, are derived from baseless reports that four American aircraft were shot down by Nazis during Operation Highjump. This tied in with an esoteric, post-war Nazism described in the 2002 history of occult Nazism, Black Sun, in which "flying saucers were in fact German super-weapons that had been developed and tested during the Third Reich."

    According to Black Sun, this technology which was "supposedly shipped to safety in the Arctic, South America, and Antarctica" and "by the late 1970s, neo-Nazi writers were claiming that the 'Last Battalion,' a massive Nazi military force of highly advanced UFOs, was in possession of a vast tract of Antarctica." Despite the claims made in the neo-Nazi tract that American planes were shot down over Antarctica by Nazi flying saucers, Summerhayes concludes "that the idea that Germans defended themselves with flying saucers from a secret base" to be "pure fantasy," if for no other reason than the only plane lost during the American expedition to Antarctica crashed on the other side of the continent from the location of the supposed Nazi base.

    Sure, fine. But why drop three atomic bombs on Antarctica if there wasn't Nazis there? 
    Although there were three atmospheric nuclear explosions in the Southern hemisphere 1958, they were not over Antarctica—in fact, they were about 1500 miles north of the continent.

    Summerhayes was able to thoroughly debunk the existence of an Antarctic Nazi UFO base, but the fact that the rumor persists a decade later should come as no surprise. In the era of pizzagate and fake news, we know all too well that the seduction of conspiracy will always trap at least a few believers who are willing to accept the apparent absurdity of a story, so long as it means that all the dots are connected.

    FAIRE POUSSER DES PATATES SUR MARS ?

    Avant de partir explorer Mars, les êtres humains ont encore quelques ajustement à faire : le ravitaillement, entre autres. Des scientifiques ont peut-être trouvé la solution : faire pousser des patates sur la planète rouge. Oui, comme dans Seul sur Mars.

    Une première expérimentation menée par le très sérieux Centre international de la pomme de terre au Pérou a donné des "résultats préliminaires encourageants".

    Menés entre le 14 février et le 5 mars à Lima, les tests ont été réalisés dans des conditions atmosphériques censées être semblables à celles de la planète Mars, reproduites sous un dôme baptisé CubSat. Les pommes de terre ont poussé dans une terre extraite du désert de la Pampa de la Joya, dans le sud du Pérou, où le sol est ce qu'on peut retrouver sur Mars. Ce n'est donc pas un hasard si la NASA envisage de construire dans cette région un centre d'expérimentations martiennes, comme il en existe déjà aux Etats-Unis, en Antarctique et en Russie.

    Le fait qu'il y ait une croissance possible dans des conditions comme celles de Mars est une phase importante de cette expérienceJulio Valvidia Silva, astrobiologiste péruvien

    Un cube hermétique, des conditions extrêmes

    « Si ces cultures peuvent résister aux conditions extrêmes auxquelles nous les exposons dans notre CubeSat, elles ont de bonnes chances de croître sur Mars, précise Julio Valdivia-Silva de l’UTEC. Nous ferons plusieurs séries d’expériences pour savoir quelles variétés de pommes de terre résistent le mieux. Nous voulons savoir quelles sont les conditions minimales dont une pomme de terre a besoin pour survivre.  »

    Si ces cultures résistent, elles ont de bonnes chances de croître aussi sur Mars

    Dans ce cube, qui abrite un environnement hermétiquement fermé, le tubercule est alimenté en eau, enrichie de nutriments. La température et ses variations suivent celles observables sur Mars, de jour comme de nuit. De même, les niveaux de pression atmosphérique, d’oxygène et de dioxyde de carbone sont constamment surveillés pour imiter ceux de la planète rouge. Un lot de capteurs et une caméra permettent de surveiller la croissance du tubercule.

    Selon les observations de Walter Amoros, spécialisé dans la culture de pommes de terre au CIP, ce féculent présenterait des propriétés génétiques idéales pour résister à des environnements défavorables. En amont de l’expérience à l’intérieur du cube, les chercheurs avaient déjà utilisé le sol d’un désert situé dans le sud du Pérou pour prouver que les tubercules pouvaient s’y développer malgré la sécheresse.

    Les patates bientôt au menu sur Mars ?

    "Si les tubercules peuvent tolérer les conditions extrêmes auxquelles nous les exposons ici, cela offre une bonne opportunité pour qu'elles poussent sur Mars", estime Julio Valdivia Silva, astrobiologiste péruvien lié à l'agence spatiale américaine.

    "Le fait qu'il y ait une croissance possible dans des conditions comme celles de Mars est une phase importante de cette expérience", a-t-il ajouté.  Elle est prévue pour durer cinq ans. Et permet déjà de savoir qu'on ne mourra pas de faim à 76 millions de kilomètres de la Terre.

    Westall UFO sighting witnesses to speak about the 1966 alien encounter at Clayton South

    MEET the people whose lives were forever changed when they encountered what they believe was an alien spacecraft.

    The story as it was reported in The Dandenong Journal.

    At 6am on April 6, 1966, Clayton South became host to one of Australia’s most intriguing mysteries when more than 200 school students witnessed an unidentified flying object.

    It was Australia’s largest mass UFO sighting.

    More than half a century later and a select group of witnesses will share their story at Victorian UFO Action’s event Westall — The Witnesses Speak.

    Sue Savage, who now lives in Springvale North, was 13 at the time of the encounter; she was in science class at Westall High School when a fellow student ran into the class room shouting “there is a flying saucer outside”.

    Mrs Savage said she and her classmates went out to the corner of the schoolyard and looked up in awe.

    “(The UFO) was like two saucers … one on the bottom and one turned upside down on the top,” Mrs Savage said.

    “Some people say there was just one but I reckon there were three.

    “They were hovering over the trees and then went down into the trees and disappeared for a minute or two then rose back up, sort of banked on its side and then took off at a 1000 miles per hour.”

    Mrs Savage said the encounter left a lasting impression on her.

    Since then she has had a keen interest in astrology and UFOs and has had to deal with many sceptics.

    “We were too young to be sceptics — we know what we saw,” she said.

    “It really makes me very angry to hear people say there’s nothing else out there and I know there is.

    “Even mum and dad both said it was a load of rubbish and I told my children years later and they thought I was crazy until the first reunion was held and they realised (how many witnesses there were).”

    Kevin Hurley was 21 at the time of the incident and rode his bike to the school from Murrumbeena after being alerted to the UFO sighting.

    Mr Hurley never saw a UFO but he walked through tall grass to the spot behind the trees where the students said the UFO touched down for a couple of minutes.

    “I saw a whole lot of people in a group huddle, they were all looking at the ground and there in 2ft high grass was a big perfect circle of absolutely flattened and twisted grass,” Mr Hurley said.

    “In that circle there were three distinct impressions where the grass has been penetrated down to the dirt.”

    Mr Hurley returned to the site the next day with a group of friends but said it was cordoned off and a military officer ordered him off the area.

    James Rigney from Victoria UFO action said these first-hand accounts were what people who came to the event could expect to hear.

    DID YOU KNOW?

    The Dandenong Journal ran with coverage of the incident on its front page for consecutive issues and Nine News also reported the story on its 6pm bulletin.

    The film canister containing the Channel 9 footage from the incident has since been found empty in the station archives.

    Witnesses believe there has been a cover-up.

    In 2013, the UFO returned to Westall in the form of a playground build by Kingston Council.

    DETAILS

    Westall — The Witnesses Speak will include the showing of documentary, Westall ’66: A Suburban UFO Mystery, a presentation from amateur investigator Shane Ryan and a Q and A panel with up to 12 witnesses.

    It will take place at Kingston Arts Centre, 64 Parkers Rd, Parkdale, on April 2 from 12pm-5.30pm.

    This UFO was seen over Ontario last week. It does have three lights which could mean its a TR3B military craft, but its hard to tell at night. Sometimes similar UFOs have been reported to suddenly split up and shoot away in opposite directions. I wonder if this would have happened if the eyewitness had watched longer?

    Scott C. Waring

    Eyewitness states:
    I pulled onto my street heading home and i noticed 3 bright lights in the sky. 2 red and one white flashing very fast. I recorded it for a few seconds from my car, until the video went out of focus, then pulled into my driveway and went inside to tell people to come look. My borther in law came outside and seen it as well. I started to record again and as i did it changed its white light to red and began pulsating slowly with the other 2 lights now turned off. It then flickered its lights and changed the red pulsating light back to white, continued to pulsate, and then went back to flashing again for the remainder of the time i watched. It eventually vanished.

    This UFO showed up over Mount Shasta, a famous religious mountain where many have claimed to see people surrounded by an aura around there body. Many who have climbed the mountain trails have said they encounter beings along the way that claimed to be from an underground city below the mountain that is over 12,000 years old! One appeared to be Saint Germain. (click here on more info on that encounter). This UFO over the mountain was there to pick up and deliver goods, supplies and passengers to this ancient city. I am sure you have heard of these stories before. I myself first heard about them over 35 years ago.

    BREAKTHROUGH: Seven planets were discovered as part of a new star system

    The space agency made the huge announcement last month, with experts calling the discovery of Trappist -1 one of the most important developments in the hunt for aliens.

    The seven Earth-like dwarf planets have opened up the possibility for discovering an entirely new solar system.

    Now NASA has released raw images from the Kepler space telescope, showing a pixelated first look at the fascinating discovery.

    Finding a second Earth isn't a matter of if but when

    Thomas Zurbuchen

    It comes after scientists offered a look into what life could be like on a "second Earth", as they created an interactive look around the exoplanets.

    Three of the planets discovered are thought to contain pools of water, suggesting life could be thriving.

    The Kepler telescope has been observing the new star system since December and the new data gives scientists a more detailed look at the planets.

    HUGE: NASA announced the Trappist-1 discovery last month

    Geert Barentsen, K2 research scientist at NASA’s Ames Research Center, said: "Scientists and enthusiasts around the world are invested in learning everything they can about these Earth-size worlds.

    "Providing the K2 raw data as quickly as possible was a priority to give investigators an early look so they could best define their follow-up research plans.

    "We’re thrilled that this will also allow the public to witness the process of discovery."

    Trappist -1 was discovered by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope with help from ground-based machinery.

    Talking about the discovery, NASA's associate administrator Thomas Zurbuchen said: "This discovery could be a significant piece in the puzzle of finding habitable environments, places that are conducive to life.

    Did an extraterrestrial object wipe out Paleo-Americans? Traces of platinum at US archaeological sites suggest an asteroid or comet might have caused disappearance of Clovis people

    • Researchers analyzed 11 archaeological sites associated with Clovis peoples
    • The Clovis peoples arrived in Americas more than 13,000 years ago and mysteriously disappeared 12,800 years ago
    • Around the same time, more than 35 ice-age animals went extinct 
    • Scientists found traces of platinum from California to the Carolinas and Virginia
    • Platinum is common in extraterrestrial objects such as asteroids and comets
    • North America experienced mini ice-age called 'Younger Dryas' around this time
    • Evidence suggests Clovis people were maybe wiped out by comet-like object

    Traces of platinum discovered at archaeological sites across the US may help scientists determine why the Clovis people disappeared thousands of years ago.

    Platinum is found in asteroids and comets, which has led researchers to speculate that an extraterrestrial object could explain the disappearance.

    The Clovis people, who inhabited the modern-day contiguous United States more than 13,000 years ago along with beasts such as the mastodon and mammoth, disappeared 12,800 years ago. More than 35 ice-age animals also went extinct.

    Researchers from the University of South Carolina, whose work was published in Scientific Reports, found 11 Clovis sites from California to the Carolinas and Virginia had platinum, which was previously found in Greenland in 2013.

    Archaeologist Albert C. Goodyear told WLTX: 'We found in our study from California to the Savannah River, higher than ordinary concentrations of platinum.'

    While no impact site has been found, platinum's dating coincided with the 'Younger-Dryas' period, a sort of mini ice-age lasting 1,400 years that began 12,800 years ago, Science Daily reported.

    The study's lead author, Christopher Moore, said: 'Platinum is very rare in Earth's crust, but it is common in asteroids and comets.'

    Moore added: 'The presence of elevated platinum in archaeological sites is a confirmation of data previously reported for the Younger-Dryas onset several years ago in a Greenland ice-core.'

    He said that unlike the dinosaur extinction 65million years ago which was caused by a large extraterrestrial object impact, the Younger-Dryas impact would have been caused by a smaller one.

    Questions such as how exactly peoples and animals would have been affected by such an environmental change remain, and the study concludes that more research into the theoretical impact is necessary.

    The Clovis people were a prehistoric Native American group of hunter-gatherers who, for 40 years, were assumed to have been the first people to arrive in the Americas.

    But in early 2016, anthropologists in Southern Chile discovered a completely different type of a much older stone tool technology believed to be up to 19,000 years old.

    David Meltzer, a Southern Methodist University archaeologist, said: 'There is compelling evidence that Clovis was preceded by an earlier and possibly separate population.'

    Crop circles: They're real and contain hidden messages, scientist says

    By Megan Palin

    It all started with a UFO sighting.

    Dr Horace Drew, 61, was just 10 years old when he allegedly saw an unidentified, silver, windowless craft hovering in the sky near his suburban home, in Jacksonville, Florida. The encounter lasted only moments but led to a lifelong fascination with the extraterrestrial.

    "I saw a UFO, so I knew they were real from an early age," Dr Drew told news.com.au.

    The scientist, who holds a PhD in Chemistry from Caltech, the California Institute of Technology, and worked for CSIRO as a molecular biologist, has been researching crop circles and aliens for 20 years. Dr Drew relocated to Australia in the 1980s but most of his work has taken him overseas, predominantly to Europe.

    "They're quite rare in Australia," he said.

    He, along with many conspiracy theorists, believe crop circles are the work of aliens or human time travellers. Sceptics say most are probably man-made.

    A crop circle is typically defined by standing wheat stems that have been flattened in the shape of a circle or more complex pattern. They tend to appear mainly in developed Western or secularised countries - including Japan.

    The cause of many of the circles is unknown despite various natural and unorthodox explanations having been put forward. Some crop circles have been proven to be hoaxes.

    But according to Dr Drew, a number are legitimate and contain puzzles that can be decoded and linked to time travel and alien life.

    He told news.com.au he had visited about "two dozen crop circles" around the globe in his career. Typically, they were between 50-500m in length, he said.

    "For the past 20 years I have been studying UFOs or crop circles. Just as other mainstream scientists study conventional subjects," Dr Drew told guests at the March UFO & Paranormal Research Society of Australia (UFO-PRSA) seminar in Sydney on Wednesday night.

    "This has led to at least one major breakthrough the discovery of a more advanced binary code than our computers currently use."

    Dr Drew claimed that aliens or human time travellers have been leaving the crop circles on Earth as messages to "us or themselves".

    WHY ARE THERE CROP CIRCLES?

    Dr Drew said he was one of a handful of scientists around the world who had worked to successfully decode some of the messages in crop circles.

    According to him, some crop circles provide general descriptions of the future.

    "Other crop (circles) show schematic images of the future for astronomical or human events," he said.

    He said some of the decoded messages read: 'Much pain but still time. Believe. There is good out there'; 'Beware the bearers of false gifts and their broken promises'; 'We oppose deception. Conduit closing'.

    Dr Drew has developed at least two theories as to the purpose of the circles by reading their "advanced (version of) binary codes".

    "One theory is that they are trying to introduce themselves to us peacefully, like we do using bubbles with dolphins," he said.

    "When (humans) want to talk with dolphins we put little bubble circles under the ocean with a generator. We watch the dolphins come up and play and investigate, and we study them.

    "This is called the 'dolphin communication project'."

    He said the dynamic between the way humans interact with dolphins and whales was likely comparable to how extraterrestrials communicate with us.

    "Barack or Trump have never said to a dolphin: 'take me to your leader I want to sign a treaty with you'," he said.

    "And (the extraterrestrials are) not interested in making a treaty with us.

    "They are ahead of us like we are ahead of the dolphins and the whales."

    His second theory was that the messages "are not even for us".

    Dr Drew said human time travellers from the distant future could be creating the circles as directional markers, to help them navigate "in their distant past, which is our present".

    "There are definitely humans living there in about 5000 years with time travel capability," he said.

    "They're coming back and flying all over Earth.

    "They seem to just say 'this is a certain day' and mark it.

    "So the trouble is we don't know space time physics enough to understand what's happening. It's beyond our knowledge.

    "Maybe they don't want us to know about it. It might be just for them."

    It's a theory shared by many in his field of work.

    HOW ARE THEY MADE?

    Dr Drew said the circles appeared to be created by an "unknown energy that heats the crops up".

    "It's like microwave energy but is something beyond earth's science," he said.

    "It can pattern the wheat.

    "No one sees or hears anything and that's why its so hard to prove. If there's a craft, it's silent, noiseless."

    But there's nothing to fear, according to him.

    "Don't be afraid," he said.

    REAL OR A HOAX?

    Telling the difference between a real crop circle and a hoax is like differentiating between an original painting and a fake, according to Dr Drew.

    "There are some things to look for," he said.

    Crops that are bent "halfway up" their stems, rather than on the ground ,is one telltale sign "cereologists", or someone that advocates paranormal explanations of crop circles, look for to determine that it's not a hoax.

    "You can't absolutely prove a crop circle wasn't a hoax but you can give a high probability and judgment," he said.

    "If there's a hoax the word of it gets around very fast, people are aware, people are not that easily fooled."

    In 1991, English pranksters Doug Bower and Dave Chorley took credit for most of the crop circles across southern England made since 1978. They were inspired by the Tully "saucer nest" case in Australia, where a farmer found a flattened circle of swamp reeds after observing a UFO.

    Using basic tools including a plank of wood, rope, and a baseball cap fitted with a loop of wire to help them walk in a straight line, they said they made complex crop circles in England - which others then copied all over the world into the 1980s.

    They made a circle for journalists, which was later declared authentic by a cereologist.

    They then revealed their hoax to the world, spurring on even more copycats.

    Dr Drew said there was a lot of scientific evidence to show that some crop circles were made by human time travellers or extraterrestrial beings. "Laboratory results on plant or soil samples taken from a crop circle in Brazil in October of 2016 show that it was formed by unknown sterilising images," he said.

    The earliest mention of a crop circle dates back to the 1500s. A woodcut from the time showed a "mowing devil" making the pattern.

    GOVERNMENT SECRETS?

    Earlier this month, US TV host Jimmy Kimmel asked former US President George Bush if he went through "secret files, the UFO documents" when he was in office.

    But instead of laughing off the question, the former commander in chief replied: "Maybe."

    Mr Kimmel then asked him if there were "any great secrets you know that you can't share with people?"

    "Yeah, there are," Mr Bush said. "But I'm not telling you."

    Many conspiracy theorists and some scientists, including Dr Drew, argued that Mr Bush's comments indicated the US government knows much more about extraterrestrial life than it has publicly revealed.

    "The politicians are scared they'll lose votes if they talk about it," Dr Drew said.

    He said international media had also played a part in causing the public to doubt the legitimacy of crop circles and aliens.

    But according to him, its important for humans to keep seeking answers.

    "The ET visitors have technologies which would benefit us greatly, for example, how to make safe, clean energy without burning oil, coal or gas," Dr Drew said.

    "Ultra-fast propulsion systems, based on gravity and inertia, could carry us safely to distant planets or stars.

    "We may also need to upgrade our planetary defences soon, to protect against ET's who may not be friendly."

    There's still a lot more to be understood but Dr Drew's hope is that he one day gets a closer look at what was inside the UFO he believes he saw as a child.

    "I'd like to meet (the extraterrestrials or human time travellers) in person," he said.

    "But I don't think they're going to do that.

    "Whichever scientific team is doing this I don't think we're supposed to have full knowledge of it because it will interrupt their program, whatever they're doing."

    Saturn's Tiny Moon Pan Looks Like A UFO, A Ravioli, An Empanada - But It's Not Weird At All In Space

    By Randell Suba Tech Times
    $$

    The internet is in love with the latest image of Saturn's moon Pan. People tag it as the ravioli moon, UFO moon, and more. However, Pan is not weird at all, and here's why. 

    ( NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute ) 

    NASA has revealed its closest-ever photos of Saturn's moon Pan. The images were taken by the Cassini spacecraft that flew by the tiny moon on March 7.

    The Cassini probe did a close-approach at a distance of just 15,268 miles. This close distance has allowed it to capture images of Pan that clearly reveal its geology and shape.

    Pan Is A Ravioli-, UFO-, Empanada-Shaped Moon

    Pan is only 12 miles across and this month's encounter is not actually the first for NASA. It was first spotted in 1990 by SETI researcher Mark Showalter using the images captured by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1981. The moonlet is named after a Greek mythological god of nature and the forest, a creature that resembles a man with a goat's hind legs and hooves.

    Pan is very small and has an average radius of only 8.8 miles. It orbits Saturn at a distance of 83,000 miles in a region known as the Encke Gap on the planet's A-ring.

    The latest images have captured the attention of the internet. Pan has been called the ravioli moon for obvious reasons. It doesn't end there as Pan is also being compared to other things.

    National Geographic compares Saturn's tiny moon to a flying saucer and naturally tags it as a UFO moon.

    Ars Technica likens Pan to a walnut... because why not?

    After ravioli, UFO, walnut, we get other fascinating takes such as comparing Pan to a pan-fried dumpling or empanada.

    Ravioli also rhymes with guacamole so why not include half avocado on the list.

    Pan Is Not The Only Weird Thing In Space

    We're only starting to discover what's around us. In space, Pan is surely not the only oddly shaped moon or heavenly body we have seen so far.

    Another moon of Saturn, Atlas, resembles its sibling. Atlas is just a flatter version of the ravioli-shaped tiny moon.

    Tech Times reported before about the planet's Death Star Moon and this one does not need an explanation where it got its name.

    Then, there's also the potato-shaped Prometheus moon of Saturn.

    We also have the small moons of Mars known as Phobos and Deimos, names that literally translate to fear and panic, respectively.

    NASA's radars have also captured images of an asteroid resembling Dungeons & Dragons dice.

    Lastly, why do we have to look so far when our experts consider our own moon's shape very odd, more of a lemon, less of a sphere, as they say.
