Watch Viral Video Of Diamond UFO Hovering Over Sea
Watch Viral Video Of Diamond UFO Hovering Over Sea
An amazing video of an apparent diamond-shaped UFO has gone viral. It shows the UFO hovering above the sea before vanishing through an alleged portal.
Section 51 2, which uploaded the footage to YouTube, claims that Danish fisherman shot the video in November 2016. It shows a capture from a distance of a massive hovering rhombus-shaped UFO with an alleged separate bright orb moving around it.
The UFO was reportedly seen rising into clouds as if vanishing through a portal to another dimension. However, the video and the uploader did not give additional details about the UFO sighting. Even the article about the incident does not include further information about the strange event. It is likely the video is a CGI hoax.
Since the video and the article about it do not discuss more details, many concluded that it is a clever hoax created using CGI technology.
However, other viewers suggested that it could be a genuine mothership appearing like the legendary mythical UFO known as the Black Knight Satellite.
Margaret Bu commented that discounting the video for the reason that no one was screaming could limit one’s possibilities of finding the facts of the matter.
Robert Kimball believes the UFO is a sampling collector that will be beamed into a mothership cloaked in the dark cloud. Kimball also thinks that the small orb is actually a sensor ship monitoring the ET beaming activity.
Eye-shaped UFO spotted in the skies above Gloucester
The "hovering orb" that turns into a bizarre shape-shifting object when filmed has appeared in YouTube videos captured across the world and been reported to various UFO websites, including the US-based Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
One of the latest sightings to be recorded was in Elmbridge, near Gloucester, this month.
Rob Wheatman who recorded video footage of it said: "I saw it as a sparkling 'star' from the garden in Elmbridge, due south.
"What alerted me was an orange light that came from it and travelled at speed north east.
"I grabbed my video and luckily it has a 40x zoom and that's when I got the images of the bizarre light you saw."
GETTY
Thousands of people across the globe have reported seeing the same UFO.
UFO blogger Scott C Waring, who runs website ufosightingsdaily.com, said: "This glowing UFO has been recorded all around the world in the last four weeks.
"I can easily post 20 videos of it in different countries.
"I myself recorded it just two weeks ago and it looks exactly the same as this here in Taiwan.
"I didn't bother posting it, because lately it seems people on Youtube only want to view fake UFO videos and they ignore the real ones.
"The difference is really obvious, but when you try to make a difference and get ignored, it cools your jets."

A planet when filmed under scintillationappears like this on camera, but is often reported as a UFO.
Some people look at the sky without understanding what the planets/stars they are seeing are, and mistake optical effects like twinkling or scintillation for UFOs.
Scott Brando
But, despite several claims this is a bizarre form of alien craft or even living biological entity appearing all over the internet, Express.co.uk, can reveal it is nothing more than one of the planets in our solar system.
All the reports share the common theme that the object is star-like and does not move when viewed with the naked eye.
However, it appears to dart about and change shape when viewed through an optical lens.
Scott Brando is a UFO hoax buster who runds website ufoofinterest.org.
He said the optical effect caused by zooming in on a planet was called scintillation.
He said: "People like to share this rubbish to make it viral.
"I already said in a tweet, it's a planet/star under the scintillation effect.
"Some people look at the sky without understanding what the planets/stars they are seeing are, and mistake optical effects like twinkling or scintillation for UFOs.
"They don't move, but some people think UFOs move in the screens of their cameras."

News states: Just what on Earth - or perhaps Mars or Jupiter - is this? This apparently intergalactic lightshow was filmed above Gloucester last night - and it's got us, and the cameraman, baffled. The mysterious orb was spotted by Rob Wheatman in Elmbridge yesterday and he had a powerful enough camera to zoom right in on it. What it shows is anyone's guess - but we'd love to hear what you think it might be. We're pinning our money on aliens. Definitely aliens. Rob said: "I saw it as a sparkling 'star' from the garden in Elmbridge, due south. What alerted me was an orange light that came from it and travelled at speed north east. "I grabbed my video and luckily it has a 40x zoom and that's when I got the images of the bizarre light you saw."
England has always been a hotspot for UFO sightings since its surrounded by ocean on all sides making it more isolated. Also the ancient culture still survives there in the art, structures and towns. Here are two glowing white orbs, which are very similar to the UFOs that are seen over the Colorado mountains in the USA. Scott C. Waring
News states: Barwell and Earl Shilton have been singled out as hotspots for UFO sightings. Reports of strange objects in the sky, gathered by The Hinckley Times and listed on a sky-watchers’ website, suggest the two neighborhoods see the most sub-space activity of any location in Leicestershire. A new article on history and heritage blog The Leicester Chronicle brings together a series of sightings going back to 1706. Blogger Thomas Kirkup reckons the location of the town and village, close to one another and near to Hinckley but largely surrounded by open countryside, is the key factor in the swathe of flying object spots.

Military Police Officer Shot And Killed An Alien Being
Military Police Officer Shot And Killed An Alien Being
It is revealed in a bizarre UFO case that an alien being was shot dead at a U.S. Air Force base. State Police requested entry to investigate the sighting of UFOs flying near the McGuire Air Force Base and Fort Dix Base in Trenton, New Jersey. A Fort Dix military police officer reportedly saw a low-flying object passing over his car as he drove.
After stepping on the brake, he allegedly saw a small being with a large head in front of his car. The big-headed alien has black eyes and a very slender body.
The police officer got panic, stepped out from the car, pulled out a .45 automatic gun, and then demanded the strange-looking being to lay on the floor.
However, his request was ignored, forcing him to fire several shots.
The creature allegedly still managed to jump a fence into the McGuire base and head down a runway. However, it eventually collapsed and died, according to the case.
Sgt. Jeff Morse, who allowed police access to the scene, is listed as a witness. However, it is possible that this was just a fictitious name to cover his true identity.
The body was reportedly recovered without any signs of life. They were in shock, but still followed the protocol of roping off the area.
A group of military officers arrived in the area in blue berets, distancing Sgt. Morse from the area. Morse had never seen this group before, but it appeared they were taking charge of the situation.
Sgt. Morse provided more details about the incident when UFO researcher Leonard Springfield did an interview with him. Morse allegedly stated that he was never close enough to observe details of the alien, such as hands, feet, and facial features. However, he said that he saw the skin wet, shiny, and snake-like under the glare of truck headlights.
He further described the entity as around four feet in height in grayish-brown coloration with thin arms and legs, slender torso, and large head.
The remains of the alien was carefully placed on a wooden-framed platform. Then eventually transferred into a big square silver metal container with same blue markings. Morse, according to Springfield, estimated the silver container to be approximately 10 x 10 feet.
Documentary Video: Plans of Grey Aliens for Humans
Documentary Video: Plans of Grey Aliens for Humans
One of the most promoted types of aliens in paranormal, New Age, and ufological communities are Grey aliens, which also referred as Grays, Greys, or Roswell Greys. Around 50 percent of alien encounters in the U.S. involve Grey aliens. The origin of the idea about the existence of Greys can be attributed to the Betty and Barney Hill abduction claim.
Greys are usually described as small humanoid beings with dark grey skin. They possess reduced or completely lack external human organs, such as sex organs, ears, or noses. They have elongated bodies with small chest without muscular definition or visible skeletal structure. Their legs are shorter than average humans, and their limbs are proportionally different from humanity. Their humerus has the same length with their forearms. The same goes with their thighs and shins when it comes to length.
Greys have large heads in proportion to their bodies. They have no visible hair anywhere on the body. Their mouths are small, but they have large opaque black eyes without discernible iris or pupil. Other witnesses reported Greys as having no nostrils or mouths. Their height could be anywhere from 2 to 4 feet.
Alien abduction claims commonly include Greys, which make up approximately 90 percent in Canada, 67 percent in Brazil, and 50 percent in Australia. Abductees typically determined leaders of their abductors by their demeanor. Some abduction researchers and ufologists suspect taller Greys are the only Grey type to be biologically alive and that the smaller ones are just robots acted as servants.
Another UFO Sighting Video In The Skies Above Gloucester Shows Up Online
Another UFO Sighting Video In The Skies Above Gloucester Shows Up Online
Another video appears to show a UFO in the skies over Gloucestershire. Ryan Gribbon recorded it on March 13 at around 5 pm in Hucclecote, Gloucester. Many UFO enthusiasts say that it is a convincing footage.
The incident came after Rob Wheatman caught a video of a strange light in Elmbridge a few days ago.
Rob said that he noticed the strange light, which he described as a bright star, from the garden in Elmbridge, coming from the south. Rob, who zoomed in on the strange light, got more intrigued with the orange light that came from it that traveled quickly northeast.
He said his video recorder has a 40x zoom that is enough to get images of the bizarre light that he saw.
The lights are still unidentified and no explanations yet. Do you have suggestions of what the lights are?
Croissant Shaped Object Spotted Above The Sea In Malta
Croissant Shaped Object Spotted Above The Sea In Malta
Strange images seemingly show a croissant shaped UFO over Malta Island. Some UFO enthusiasts suggest the area is a UFO hotspot as sea surrounds it on all sides and often has sunny, clear skies.
The unique images show the usual beautiful view of blue skies, but with a bizarre object hovering in the air. Reportedly taken in Marsaskala region of Malta, these photos appear to show a brown, croissant looking object above the sea.
An eyewitness said that he used to be taking pictures of the view and the weird item appeared in three photographs then he started to notice it for 15 minutes before it disappeared into thin air. It was a sunny day, according to the witness.
The image was allegedly taken in October 2016 but has been shared only recently for an unknown reason.
Some UFO enthusiasts theorized that alien bases mostly located below the ocean because it covers about 75 percent of Earth’s surface, which is largely unwatched since only a few humans explore below the sea.
However, critics rebuffed UFO claims saying that it was just a snail or a cocktail sausage wrapped in bacon.
UFO Hunter Plans To Find Alien Base Entrance In A Hill Near The Nellis U.S. Airforce Base
UFO Hunter Plans To Find Alien Base Entrance In A Hill Near The Nellis U.S. Airforce Base
A YouTuber who caught UFOs in the video coming out of a hillside nearby his home nearly every night has hit back critics saying they are just car headlights.
Steve Baron of YouTube channel UFOs In THE USA firmly believes that he was recording extraterrestrial activity in the Blue Diamond Hills, which is close to the Nellis U.S. Airforce base in Nevada.
However, skeptics have suggested the so-called UFOs were just headlights of vehicles coming down the hillside.
Willing to prove critics wrong, Barone showed himself in a video climbing the remote hillside in a bid to show that no vehicles drive on it. He also visited the area to see if he could discover a secret entrance to the base.
In a video he uploaded to YouTube, he says that riding any motorized vehicles is strictly not allowed in the area and a huge fine is imposed to violators. He further explains that the land on the small mountain is under BLM control and very close to National Conservation area.
Mr. Barone also revealed thathe, together with his wife and dog, attempted to climb the area to prove the soil was undisturbed, but they found out that everything is fenced or blocked off.
He has been keeping an eye in the area using his video camera for three years and already got several videos on his YouTube channel. He believes his videos show alien UFOs or top secret U.S. space vehicles floating over the Nellis Air Force Base.
The base is known in UFO community as a secret facility for the remains of crashed flying saucers and dead aliens just like top secret Area 51 in the Nevada desert. Some conspiracy theorists claim that visiting extraterrestrial beings have been allowed to use the bases to keep them from public eyes.
An artist's illustration of a light sail powered by a radio beam from the surface of a planet. The leakage from such beams as they sweep across the sky would appear as fast radio bursts.
Two Harvard University scientists are suggesting that mysterious fast radio bursts, detected in faraway galaxies, may be evidence of aliens traveling through the cosmos.
FRBs are extremely bright flashes of radio waves that last for only a thousandth of a second and are detected by earthbound telescopes. Since the first one was observed 10 years ago, 17 have actually been reported, although scientists think there are thousands of them a day.
At first, Abraham “Avi” Loeb said, he took a conservative approach to explaining them.
“It looked like the simplest explanation would be flares from stars in the Milky Way galaxy,” said Loeb, a theoretical astrophysicist and chair of Harvard’s astronomy department.
But then “one of the FRBs was localized to reside in a small galaxy at a distance of about a billion light-years away,” Loeb told The Huffington Post. (One light-year is about 6 trillion miles.)
Essentially, that means these FRBs are coming from the edge of the universe and must be brighter than anything else we know.
In a new paper published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters this month, Loeb and Harvard physicist Manasvi Lingam say they decided to “examine the possibility that fast radio bursts originate from the activity of extragalactic civilizations.”
“Since there are many more galaxies out there than the Milky Way, it makes sense statistically that one would detect such phenomena outside the Milky Way more often rather than inside it,” Lingam told HuffPost.
While Loeb and Lingam don’t claim that FRBs definitely originate from aliens, they speculate that such phenomena could be the result of other civilizations using gigantic radio transmitters to hopscotch from one galaxy to another.
An almost planet-sized, solar-powered radio transmitter could generate enough energy to propel an interstellar light sail (like the one illustrated above), they suggest. These sails, in turn, might be sufficient to push “about 20 times the largest cruise ships on Earth.” FRBs would be the leakage from such transmitters.
“Our upper bound on the number of such civilizations is 10,000 in a typical galaxy,” Lingam said. “But I’d like to reiterate that this is the maximal value. In all probability, the real value is likely to be much lower.”
Nobody on Earth has detected any interstellar light sails yet. What large radio telescopes, like the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico or the Parkes Observatory in Australia, have picked up are very fast, bright flashes of energy.
For us to detect these bursts so many light-years away, Loeb said, they’d need a very bright source.
“So what we are considering in our scenario is a very narrow beam of radiation pushing on a sail, and that requires roughly the amount of energy intercepted by the Earth [from] sunlight. That’s the kind of power you need ― the energy falling on the Earth from the sun,” he said.
Loeb chairs the advisory committee for the Starshot project, which seeks to send a spaceship to Alpha Centauri, a star system over four light-years from Earth. The idea would be to aim powerful laser beams from Earth at thin sails carrying more than 1,000 probes. It’s not the same as the radio waves possibly used by aliens, but then humans are still taking baby steps into space.
“I can imagine [aliens] doing what we are just starting to do now,” Loeb said.
The Harvard scientist is well aware that talking about aliens, even hypothetically, can start some eye-rolling. But he doesn’t share that bias.
“We shouldn’t be guided by prejudice when we think about what may be out there,” said Loeb. “Many people tend to think they know the truth. They think that we are special, that maybe there is nothing out there.
“I think we should just observe and whenever we see something unusual, we should think, contemplate the possibility that it could be artificial. And there is nothing bad about that ― it’s a learning experience.”
Indeed, it’s probably the essence of being a theoretical astrophysicist.
“The whole principle of science is that you collect data that can falsify an idea that you have or prove it right,” Loeb said.
Lingam acknowledges that their hypothesis is still a tad speculative.
“We have suggested a potential means of distinguishing between ‘natural’ and ‘artificial’ origin of FRBs by taking a closer look at the signals, and looking for certain distinguishable patterns,” he said.
But don’t expect a quick answer on the aliens question. “With more data expected to emerge in the coming decades, I believe that our hypothesis will be testable,” Lingam said.

Artists' Conceptions Of Extrasolar Planets
Closest Exoplanet To Earth -- August 2016
On Aug 24 2016, the European Southern Observatory announced the confirmation of the closest exoplanet to Earth. This illustration shows Proxima b, which orbits its parent star Proxima Centauri, the closest sun to Earth's sun. Proxima b lies within its sun's habitable zone, strongly suggesting the planet has liquid water on its surface.

NASA's Kepler Mission Discovers Planet
In this handout illustration made available on December 5, 2011 by NASA, the Kepler-22b, a planet known to comfortably circle in the habitable zone of a sun-like star is digitally illustrated. For the first time NASA's Kepler mission has confirmed a planet to orbit in a star's habitable zone; the region around a star, where liquid water, a requirement for life on Earth, could persist. The planet is 2.4 times the size of Earth, making it the smallest yet found to orbit in the middle of the habit. Clouds could exist in this earth's atmosphere, as the artist's interpretive illustration depicts. (Photo Illustration by Ames/JPL-Caltech/NASA via Getty Images)

Extrasolar Planet HD 209458 b, Osiris
Artist's conception released by NASA of extrasolar planet HD 209458 b, also known as Osiris, orbiting its star in the constellation Pegasus, some 150 light years from Earth's solar system. Scientists have used an infrared spectrum -- the first ever obtained for an extrasolar planet -- to analyze Osiris' atmosphere, which is said to contain dust but no water. The planet's surface temperature is more than 700 Celsius (1330 Fahrenheit).'
Planet & Its Parent Star
Picture released 04 October 2006 by the European Space Agency shows an artist's impression of a Jupiter-sized planet passing in front of its parent star. Such events are called transits. When the planet transits the star, the star's apparent brightness drops by a few percent for a short period. Through this technique, astronomers can use the Hubble Space Telescope to search for planets across the galaxy by measuring periodic changes in a star's luminosity. The first class of exoplanets found by this technique are the so-called 'hot Jupiters,' which are so close to their stars they complete an orbit within days, or even hours. A seam of stars at the centre of the Milky Way has shown astronomers that an entirely new class of planets closely orbiting distant suns is waiting to be explored, according to a paper published 04 October 2006. An international team of astronomers, using a camera aboard NASA's Hubble telescope, delved into a zone of the Milky Way known as the 'galactic bulge', thus called because it is rich in stars and in the gas and dust which go to make up stars and planets. The finding opens up a new area of investigation for space scientists probing extrasolar planets - planets that orbit stars other than our own. AFP PHOTO NASA/ESA/K.

Bill Nye Answers: If Humans Colonize Mars, How Will We Evolve?
Bill Nye Answers: If Humans Colonize Mars, How Will We Evolve?
NASA
IN BRIEF
Bill Nye explains how he think the human body would evolve on Mars, where the surface gravity is only 38 percent of what we have here on Earth.
While Nye is skeptical that humans will ever colonize Mars, he does believe we should do what we can to put a science station on the Red Planet.
Bill Nye doesn’t believe we’ll ever colonize Mars, but if we do, he has an idea of how our bodies might adapt to survive on the Red Planet. He recently shared it via his “Tuesdays with Bill” series for Big Think.
Humans born on Mars might have a tough time surviving on Earth. The surface gravity of Mars is only 38 percent of what we have here on Earth. That means the hearts of humans born on that planet might not be able to tackle as much aerobically on Earth. In fact, astronauts who travel to Mars and stay there long enough for their bodies to adjust to the lower level of gravity will likely experience permanent changes in circulation, muscle strength, and bone density, making it impossible for them to return to Earth.
Would our bodies ever truly adapt to Mars? Well, evolution is slow. In fact, the process is barely noticeable. Serious selection pressure would be necessary for it to have a discernible effect on the population, for example, only the offspring of women who could handle Martian gravity surviving long enough to reproduce.
Some people believe that terraforming planets such as Mars is a better idea — rather than waiting for our bodies to adapt to the planet’s environment, we’d change the environment to adapt to us. In the case of Mars, we’d have to alter its ecology, atmosphere, topography, temperature, and other traits.
Ultimately, Bill Nye doesn’t see it happening — although he likes the question being asked!
The 305-meter telescope at Arecibo is just one of a collection that SETI will use to search nearby stars for electronic signals that could indicate intelligent life. If such a civilization was utilizing a similar dish to image exoplanets, SETI's team should be able to detect it.

The Debate
When many people look at the stars, they see a vast, unbound infinity that fills them with a feeling that’s difficult to describe but impossible to forget. That feeling pushes humanity to want to explore the great unknown reaches of space in the hopes of discovering that we aren’t alone in it.
But let’s assume for one moment that extraterrestrial life does exist. Should we really be trying to contact it?
Some view the idea of reaching out to extraterrestrials as dangerous. In fact, Stephen Hawking made a strong point against the idea of making contact by comparing it to the Native Americans’ first encounter with Christopher Columbus and the European explorers, a situation that “didn’t turn out so well” for the former civilization. Hawking went on to note that advanced alien life could be “vastly more powerful and may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria.”
While that does sound like it could be a possibility, not everyone agrees with Hawking. In fact, many have equally convincing arguments in support of contact with aliens.
WATCH VIDEO:Can We Mathematically Prove Aliens Exist?
Nothing to Lose
To some, the question is a no-brainer. Why wouldn’t we want to meet other intelligent lifeforms? That’s the thought shared by the people at the SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) Institute. In fact, SETI is now far more proactive in its search for alien life than ever before.
Initially, the organization focused on passively looking for signals indicating signs of intelligent life, but now it is taking action in the form of METI (Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence). METI International sends greetings to specific locations in space in the hopes of alerting alien astronomers of our existence.
Though Hawking and others worry that our interstellar friendship search will lead to the annihilation or subjugation of our species as a whole, Douglas Vakoch, the president of METI International and a professor in the Department of Clinical Psychology at the California Institute for Integral Studies, strongly disagrees with this assertion. He believes that claims that we should hide our existence as a species are unfounded. After all, we have already leaked nearly 100 years of transmissions from radio and television broadcasts as electromagnetic radiation.
Vakoch goes on to note an inconsistency in Hawking’s reasoning. He asserts that any civilizations able to travel between stars will absolutely have the ability to pick up our “leaked” signals. By that logic, they must already be aware of our existence and are simply waiting for us to make the first move. Vakoch urges us to test the Zoo Hypothesis and the Fermi Paradox through standard peer-review methods, insisting that we target nearby star systems 20 or 30 light-years away with repeat messages to generate a testable hypothesis within a few decades.
NASA estimates that there are 40 billion habitable planets in our galaxy. While he strongly urges caution in making first contact, even Hawking is curious as to whether any of those planets beyond our solar system host life. To that end, he has launched a $100 million initiative to seek out life. If we ever do find extraterrestrial life, either through Hawking’s search, SETI, or any of the number of other projects in the works, we might just want to take a beat before saying “Hello.”
The breakthrough has been made after scientists initially found strange activity around a distant star called KIC 8462852 but better known as Tabby’s star.
It appeared to lose a quarter of the light it emits, suggesting something huge was orbiting around it.
Some experts believed the object could be a “megastructure” built by an alien race with technology far superior to ours that has solar panels sucking in the light.

No-one had ever witnessed this bizarre behaviour around a star before.

This new star is also losing light – up to 60% over a 25-day period.

TECHNOLOGY: The alien megastructure could be harnessing solar power from the star
It points towards the possibility of another “megastructure” or even several around the star.

A police force has admitted dispatching officers to investigate UFO FLYING SAUCERS - after logging a series of terrified ‘ aliens ’ calls from on-lookers.
Lancashire Police, via a Freedom of Information request, confirmed that officers were sent out eight times in two years to sightings of ‘alien crafts’.
But the force confirmed that not once did their uniformed PCs find any evidence of the existence of UFOs over the north-west of England.
Officers responded to two of the reports after a sighting of two “crafts” over leafy Pendle Hill in 2015 and another in Lytham St Annes, near Blackpool, the year before.
A report of a “beam of light from a UFO” was sent to officers in Burnley in 2015 with another sighting submitted the previous year in Buckshaw Village.
Two UFOs were said to be seen in the sky over Fleetwood in 2015 and a reported red craft and another white one were spotted over Bottle last year.
Then in March last year they were contacted over a suspected alien abduction in Accrington, Lancs, while the following month they were called over a UFO “landing” in Marsden Park, Nelson.
Lancashire has a long history of UFO sightings - with one in Burnley, in November 1995 prompting a staggering 250 calls on the same day.

On that occasion hundreds of members of the public claims to have seen an object in the sky which was travelling at high speed towards Hebden Bridge.
Andy Sierolawski, from Todmorden Observatory, said: “We get asked if we have ever seen anything all the time.
“Around 40 per cent of the people who visit the centre ask us. Saturn and Venus as well as aircraft can very easily be mistaken for something else.”

A Lancashire Police spokesman said: “With any call received into the police force control room the operator assesses each and identifies any risk/threat/harm.
“The operator provides the appropriate response to this, which may include deploying an officer.
“Sometimes these calls are not what they may seem so a potential UFO call could be a suspicious light or suspicious movement.
“That could mean any number of things and we would assess and deploy officers if required, or there could be a concern for the caller’s welfare.”
According to Ancient Indian history –one of the most extensive on the planet– their ancient sacred texts called the ‘Vedas’ speak of incredible flying ships that visited our planet over 6000 years ago. The Ancient Vimana’s power source has turned out to be not only accessible to the entire world, but easy to harness as well.
Throughout history, many common myths and legends mention incredible flying machines and how ancient people traveled great distances through the air: the flying carpets of ancient Arabia, Ezequiel’s wheel, and Solomons ability to travel from one place to another and the magical chariots or ‘vimana’ mentioned in ancient Indian and Chinese texts.
According to Ancient Indian history –one of the most extensive on the planet– their ancient sacred texts called the ‘Vedas’ speak of amazing flying ships that visited our planet over 6000 years ago. While there are many who oppose the existence of the Vimana, millions of people around the world are concerned that thousands of years ago, ancient mankind was visited by incredible flying machines, piloted by the ‘gods’. With the help of the Vimana, ancient astronauts visited different places on out planet with ease, spreading knowledge and wealth among ancient, primitive civilizations.
Reference to the ancient Vimana can be found in the Mahabharata, which is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India:
“At Rama`s behest, the magnificent chariot rose up to a mountain of cloud with a tremendous din. Another passage reads: Bhima flew with his Vimana on an enormous ray which was as brilliant as the sun and made a noise like the thunder of a storm.
In the ancient Vymanka-Shastra ( a science of aeronautics), there is a description of a Vimana: “An apparatus which can go by its own force, from one place to place or globe to globe”.
Dr. Raghavan points out, “The text’s revelations become even more astounding. Thirty-one parts of which the machine consists-are described, including a photographing mirror underneath. The text also enumerates 16 kinds of metal that are needed to construct the flying vehicle: `Metals suitable, lighare 16 kinds`. But only three of them are known to us today. The rest remain untranslatable.”
Another authority who agrees with Dr. Raghavan`s interpretations is Dr. A.V. Krishna Murty, professor of aeronautics at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore. “It is true,” Dr. Krishna Murty says, “that the ancient Indian Vedas and other text refer to aeronautics, spaceships, flying machines, ancient astronauts. “A study of the Sanskrit texts has convinced me that ancient India did know the secret of building flying machines and that those machines were patterned after spaceships coming from other planets.” “
However, what fueled these ancient Vimana?
The Vaimānika Śāstra, an early 20th-century Sanskrit text on aerospace technology, makes a claim that he vimānas mentioned in ancient Sanskrit epics were advanced aerodynamic flying vehicles, similar to a rocket capable of interplanetary flight as backed up by the ancient alien theory.
Revealed in 1952 by G. R. Josye, the texts contain 3000 shlokas in 8 chapters which Shastry claimed was psychically delivered to him by the ancient Hindu sage Bharadvaja. The propulsion of the Vimanas According to Kanjilal (1985) is by a “Mercury Vortex Engines”, a concept similar to electric propulsion.
However, many people argue that a far greater, more accessible and ‘free’ power source was available to the ancient Vimana craft.
It is noteworthy to mention that a couple of years ago, Chinese researchers discovered ancient Sanskrit documents in Lhasa, Tibet, dating back thousands of years. The ancient texts were sent to the University Chandigarh for translation. The results were shocking. According to Dr. Ruth Reyna the translated texts, allegedly are ‘blueprints’ for the construction of interstellar spaceships.
According to the translated documents, the propulsion system designed for the spaceships was based on antigravitational technology, and based on a system analogous to that of “laghima,” the unknown power of the ego that exists in man’s physiological makeup, “a centrifugal force strong enough to counteract all gravitational pull.”
Interestingly, according to Hindu Yogis, the mysterious “laghima” force is what enables people to levitate.
Dr. Reyna explained that „on board these machines which were called ‘Astras,’ the builders of the crafts could have sent a detachment of men to any planet. The manuscripts, however, do not mention how interplanetary communication was achieved, but they do mention a trip from the Earth to the Moon, though it is unclear whether the trip was just planned or actually carried out. (source)
However, one of the great Indian epics, the Ramayana, does have a highly detailed story in it of a trip to the moon in a Vimana (or “Astra”), and in fact details a battle on the moon with an “Asvin” (or Atlantean” airship. (source)
Indian scientists were extremely reserved about the value of these documents but became less so when the Chinese announced that certain parts of the information were being studied for inclusion in their space program. (source)
But can we actually ‘reverse engineer’ ANCIENT technology? Well… depends on what you think is possible. Interestingly in the Sanskrit Samarangana Sutradhara, it is written:
“Strong and durable must the body of the Vimana be made, like a great flying bird of light material. Inside one must put the mercury engine with its iron heating apparatus underneath. By means of the power latent in the mercury which sets the driving whirlwind in motion, a man sitting inside may travel a great distance in the sky. The movements of the Vimana are such that it can vertically ascend, vertically descend, move slanting forwards and backward. With the help of the machines, human beings can fly in the air, and heavenly beings can come down to earth.” (source)
Interestingly, the Law of the Babylonians, the Hakatha unambiguously states:
“The privilege of operating a flying machine is great. The knowledge of flight is among the most ancient of our inheritances. A gift from ’those from upon high’. We received it from them as a means of saving many lives.” (source)
“The Pushpaka Vimana was a gigantic ‘plane’ the size of a large city entirely capable of holding unlimited numbers of people…”
“…Three flying-cities were made for and were used by the Demons…One was in a stationary orbit in the sky, another moving in the sky and one was permanently stationed on the ground. These were docked like modern spaceships in the sky…and at a fixed latitude/longitude. Siva’s arrow obviously referred to a blazing missile fired from a satellite specially built for the purpose…Vestiges of onetime prosperous civilization destroyed in battles flicker through these legends…” – Prof. D.K. Kanjilal’s observations of the Matsyapurana
Harnessing Earth’s natural energy
But is it possible that the ancient Vimana’s were built so they could access the planet’s natural energy? What if thousands of years ago, ancient flying machines used Earth’s natural energy to charge and reload? Is it possible that ancient monuments like pyramids were, in fact, giant energy transmitters that fueled the ancient Vimana?
Interestingly Stone like metal can be charged and is able to carry out electrical charges. What if ancient sites on Earth were specifically placed on so-called magnetic vortexes or electrical ‘Ley Lines’? What if there is a far greater meaning to the countless number of ancient Indian Pyramids, monoliths, megalithic statues, steles, obelisks and totems, and what if all of these structures, not only from ancient India but different civilizations around the world, had a special scientific purpose: to transmit vast amounts of energy.
Many researchers argue that intricate ancient stonework attributed to the Incas, Egyptians, East Indians, Maya and other ancient civilizations has a specific purpose, and was not only esthetic in nature.
It is noteworthy to mention that many consider the great Pyramid of Giza as one of the best examples of ancient energy machines. It was a Tesla-like power plant created thousands of years ago. It was a huge ancient structure that was capable of using the Earth’s natural properties in order to create or produce a great amount of energy. This energy is believed to have been used by the ancient Egyptians and other cultures such as the ancient Maya and other cultures around the globe for millennia. This theory, however, has been firmly rejected by mainstream researchers.
If we approach the history of ancient civilizations from another perspective, we will encounter that ancient civilizations around the globe were, in fact, extremely sophisticated and used advanced technologies thousands of years before mainstream science ‘reinvented them’.
These advanced technologies were present in ancient Egypt, Ancient Sumer, and in North, Central and South America.Electricity, electrochemistry, electromagnetic technology, metallurgy, advanced engineering, including hydrogeology, chemistry, physics and advanced forms of mathematics and astronomy were all used thousands of years ago to great extents.
NASA had recently announced the results of its Discovery Program competition, which would decide where the agency would send its next outer space probe. The options: two asteroid missions or two individual Venus orbiters (another option involved an infrared space telescope). Grinspoon had been investigating Venus for most of his 30-year career. But NASA, to his chagrin, had gone with the asteroids.
"People talk about finding Earth 2.0," Grinspoon told me at the American Astronomical Society's winter meeting, frustration evident in his voice. "We have Earth 2.0 sitting right there, and we're ignoring it."
Over the last 65 years, NASA has sent nine orbiters and eight landers or rovers to Mars, triggering a wave of public fascination with the Red Planet. Over the same period, the agency has sent just three orbiters to Venus, the planet whose size and mass are so close to our own that it's often referred to as “Earth's twin.” That's a shame, says Grinspoon, because Venus has the potential to tell us far more about both our own planet and Earth-like worlds around other suns.
Today Venus is a smoldering death trap, with a thick atmosphere that traps heat in an extreme version of Earth's own global warming effect. But it once hosted liquid oceans, and may have been the solar system's first habitable planet. Understanding what made Venus spiral out of control could help scientists understand how more life-friendly planets are able to remain hospitable, as well as provide a hint of what Earth could face should our own atmosphere veer too far off-track.
“It’s incredibly scientifically compelling to understand a planet that’s essentially in the same part of the solar system, the same size as Earth, the same mass of Earth—and yet is so different,” says planetary geologist David Senske, a research scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California who has worked with Grinspoon. Senske, too, is already looking toward the next potential Venus mission.
But after the most recent defeat, Grinspoon isn’t so sure. “Eventually, it will happen, but I’m not holding my breath,” he says. “Like Charlie Brown, I’ve run to kick that football many times, and ended up on the ground, looking up at the sky, wondering what happened.”

A Tough Nut to Crack
When it comes to habitable worlds, astronomers tend to focus on what’s known as the Goldilocks zone, or zone of habitability: that narrow band of space in which a planet is neither too hot nor too cold for liquid water to exist on the surface. That’s why exoplanets orbiting their stars at just the right distance—like three of the seven planets in the newly discovered TRAPPIST-1 system—tend to attract a lot of attention. We hope one will end up being the just-right bowl of porridge that can sustain life.
Earth’s conditions, of course, are considered the ideal for harboring life. But if Earth is the ideal, then Venus is a pretty close match. At 7,500 miles in diameter, the Morning Star is only slightly smaller than Earth and a bit less massive. And despite its current dry climate, observations from NASA's Pioneer mission have suggested the planet once held a liquid ocean, and models that Grinspoon worked on suggest that the ocean may have lasted for billions of years, giving life plenty of time to evolve.
At some point, however, the planet’s atmosphere took over. An overabundance of carbon dioxide triggered an extreme global warming effect, which resulted in the destruction of the planet’s most habitable regions. Today, temperatures at the surface reach a scorching 470 degrees Celsius, and the crushing surface pressure is comparable to what you’d find more than half a mile beneath Earth’s oceans. The dense clouds of sulfuric acid only serve to make the planet more intimidating.
That may help explain why NASA has remained hesitant to invest in exploring the planet, preferring to turn its attention toward the less-threatening Mars or other parts of the solar system. When it comes to understanding how the planet became so hellish, “Venus is a tough nut to crack,” Senske says.
According to Jim Green, director of NASA's planetary science division, part of the reason the agency has shied away from Venus in recent years is due to the wealth of potential targets available to explore. “We have such an embarrassment of riches in this solar system,” Green says. Funding, as always, is another issue: “We have so many things that we want to do that we just can’t do it all.”
Yet Green insists that the space agency hasn’t permanently abandoned Earth’s twin. “We’re serious about Venus—we’ve always been serious about Venus,” he says. He points out that NASA took a brief hiatus from Mars as well, before diving in with the latest Curiosity mission and orbiters. Of course, the Red Planet’s break lasted less than a decade—while NASA’s last Venus mission, Magellan, ended in 1994.
Venus may not prove ripe for life today, but it could help scientists figure out what to look for as they probe potentially habitable worlds beyond the solar system. Understanding just how much of the planet’s downward spiral relates to its location and how much relies on other characteristics could help scientists figure out which of the rocky, Earth-sized worlds around other stars might be habitable—and which might end up being another Venus.
“If we want to know how to lose habitability on the inner edge of the habitable zone, there’s no better place to look than Venus,” says Grinspoon.
Exoplanet scientists are only just beginning to learn about the cloudy atmospheres of distant worlds, with a strong focus on the more massive gas giants. Over the last decade, they've turned the Hubble Space Telescope towards exoatmospheres, and NASA's upcoming James Webb Telescope, should help part the clouds even further when it launches in 2018. As our ability to probe exoplanet atmospheres improve, Venus’ clouds could help us decipher other rocky exoplanets.
“It really does come down to the atmospheric characterization of these worlds to know what it’s like. That’s going to be key in the future,” says Hannah Wakeford, an exoplanet scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center who investigates the atmospheres of worlds outside the solar system. “Understanding the critical differences between our two planets is really an important thing we should be doing.”

Is Venus Rising?
Although NASA hasn’t sent a mission to Venus in nearly 30 years, the agency has kept a wandering eye on the planet. Galileo and Cassini both flew by on their way to the outer planets, and MESSENGER snuck a peek en route to Mercury.
In fact, the United States may be helping with the next Russian mission to Venus. Later this week, a team of NASA-sponsored scientists will meet with the Russian Academy of Sciences’ Space Research Institute to continue work on the proposed Venera-D mission to Earth’s twin, according to a recent press release. Earlier this year, the nations’ Joint Science Definition Team identified their shared science objectives for the planet, which they outlined in a report released last Friday.
The Russian-led mission, whose full name is Venera-Dolgozhivuschaya (meaning "long-lasting"), plans to drop a lander on the surface while also deploying an orbiter to make its own studies. The mission’s science objectives would focus on key questions about the atmosphere and how it interacts with the surface, according to a January report. Senske, who is co-chair of the team, says the lander would resemble Russian landers of the past, surviving for several hours on the surface—a feat in itself.
“The main question for Venus is about the mechanisms which made it so different from the Earth,” says Russian team member and planetary scientist Mikhail Gerasimov by email. “There is a global practical interest about the evolution trend of the Earth.” In other words, studying Venus could help scientists identify if Earth too could one day end up on the climate road to no return.
That global worry is what has drawn Russia and the U.S. together over a proposed Venus mission, despite the changing political climate over the past few years. While the mission isn't confirmed and wouldn’t launch until after 2025, Green seemed unperturbed about the concern that American politics might impact its viability. “In a way, science is that one gratifying thing that continues on no matter what the politics are,” he says, pointing to how scientists from both countries continued to work together through the Cold War. He also highlighted NASA’s “wonderful relationship” with its Russian counterpart when it comes to the International Space Station.
“What our space nations have done, cooperating and working together, really deserves a Nobel Peace Prize,” he says.
If it does move forward, Venera-D could help pull Venus back to the forefront of planetary science as the mission seeks to answer questions about the evolution of Earth and other habitable planets in the universe. As Grinspoon points out, “there is a difference between Earth-sized and Earth-like." Pinpointing what that difference is could help us figure out which of the worlds orbiting nearby stars are truly habitable.
After being part of half a dozen failed Venus mission proposals over his career, Grinspoon is still cautious that the current mission proposal will bear fruit. But others remain hopeful. “Venus’ time is coming,” Senske says. “Stay tuned. I think Venus is rising here.”
Il n’existe pas de plan en cas de visite extraterrestre
Il n’existe pas de plan en cas de visite extraterrestre

Nick Pope précise que contrairement à ce que pensent les ufologues aucun plan n’est prévu en cas de rencontre avec des visiteurs d’un autre monde.
Pour clarifier, la politique de SETI en matière de post-détection (son document « Déclaration de principes » et le matériel associé) pourrait être considérée comme un plan, mais bien entendu elle ne s’applique qu’à la détection de signaux et non à une arrivée réelle.
Du moins, c’est ce que déclare Nick Pope – qui était responsable du projet OVNI du gouvernement entre 1991 et 1994.
Nick Pope est l’un des principaux experts mondiaux sur les ovnis, les théories du complot et l’inexpliqué.
Dans le cadre d’une longue carrière au ministère de la Défense, il a passé quatre ans à diriger le département des OVNIS du gouvernement, se préparant à une éventuelle invasion – ou visite amicale – de nos voisins célestes.
Alors, après tout ce temps, quel est le plan du gouvernement?
– Il n’y a pas de plan.
…Oh.
Il n’y a pas de plan d’urgence pour autant que je sache, a-t-il dit à Metro.co.uk. « La réponse du gouvernement serait que, » Nous considérons cela comme une possibilité incroyablement petite « .
«Mais je dirais, pourquoi ne pas avoir un plan s’il y a même la plus petite possibilité que cela seproduise.
Aucune idée de quoi faire au cas où cela se produit

Bien que cela puisse être alarmant pour certains, Pope déclarait qu’une visite extraterrestre ne ressemblerait pas vraiment à la «guerre des mondes» à laquelle nous nous attendons.
Au lieu de cela, selon lui cela ressemblerait davantage à Arrival (1er Contact)- qui sort en DVD le 20 mars – dans lequel chaque pays réunit une équipe de scientifiques, d’universitaires culturels et d’experts militaires pour essayer de communiquer avec la nouvelle espèce.
Surtout parce que, étant donné qu’ils ont réussi à visiter la Terre avec succès, ils auraient sans doute déjà plusieurs milliers d’années d’avance technologique sur nous.
Mais cela, à son tour, pourrait mener à certains conflits internationaux, du moins à court terme. Pope a déclaré: « Il y aurait une lutte pour la technologie étrangère, et les armes. Certaines des grandes nations – et aussi, à l’heure actuelle, les entreprises – se battraient pour mettre la main sur la technologie étrangère. «Le pays qui obtient cette [technologie] serait le leader mondial dans un avenir prévisible».
Bien qu’il ait poursuivi en disant que, à long terme, nous allions tous nous en approcher.
«En fin de compte, cette [visite étrangère] pourrait avoir un effet unificateur», a déclaré Pope.
«Une arrivée extraterrestre pourrait nous convaincre qu’il y a plus de choses qui nous unissent que de choses qui nous séparent.
Alors, tandis que les dirigeants mondiaux poussent en avant leurs élites, quelle est la meilleure chose à faire pour les gens normaux comme nous ?
«D’abord, et c’est un cliché, mais ne paniquez pas», prévient Pope.
‘Ne commencez pas à courir vers les collines ou à tirer sur des vaisseaux extraterrestres. Attendez que les esprits les plus fins de la planète aient compris ce dont il s’agit.
Dans le même temps, ça ne fait jamais mal de vous procurer une assurance. David King, de Budget Insurance, a déclaré à Metro.co.uk qu’ils commencent une liste d’attente pour une police qui couvre les invasions d’extraterrestres.
«Pour être prudent, nous ouvrons une liste d’attente pour les clients qui seraient désireux de retirer une couverture de dommages anti-alien le cas échéant», a t-il dit.
Et «ne tirez pas sur les vaisseaux étrangers» est particulièrement important, a t-il dit, parce que nous pourrions un jour avoir besoin de quitter la planète nous-mêmes – et pourrions le faire avec quelques conseils.
« Un jour, nous devrons aller de l’avant, alors il serait bon d’avoir de l’aide des extraterrestres », a-t-il dit.
«Pour le moment, nous sommes confinés sur Terre, mais nous espérons qu’un jour nous aurons la technologie qui nous emmenera vers les étoiles.
Donc, notre meilleur plan est : se calmer, se lier d ‘amitié avec les extraterrestres, voler leur technologie quand ils ne regardent pas.
New Linda Moulton Howe Earth is an Ancient Alien Laboratory [FULL VIDEO]
New Linda Moulton Howe Earth is an Ancient Alien Laboratory [FULL VIDEO]
Published on Mar 15, 2017
In this stunning new Linda Moulton Howe video, she talks about of how planet Earth has been the laboratory playground of Ancient Aliens for over 270 million years. Linda explains Ancient gods and myths are all real - ancient gods were beings with advanced intelligence who visited planet Earth and affected human history, for better and for worse. In fact, ancient hieroglyphics do appear on modern-day UFOs: "Some people that have worked in these facilities have all talked about ancient hieroglyphics on these crafts."
Linda Moulton Howe explains UFOs and ET life is a complex, mysterious and difficult topic to investigate and has been kept top secret for purposes of national security. They take enormous measures to keep it secret, because they really feel that is what is needed to deal with the UFO phenomenon for all of us. There are good and bad ET species, referred to as "friendlies" and "unfriendlies," and they are at war in space and on our planet.

UFOs, Kenneth Arnold and the American Bible
UFOs, Kenneth Arnold and the American Bible
Kenneth Arnold was the original credible witness, a straight-shooting, down-to-earth ex-Boy Scout. Jacques Vallee wrote, "I now think of referring to the (flying saucer) problem as 'the Arnold Phenomenon' after that celebrated witness, businessman Kenneth Arnold." (11 April 1963 entry, Forbidden Science Volume I.) However, in the years since, Arnold's role as the herald of the UFO age has been diminished by the overemphasis and promotion of the Roswell crash franchise. His role is important, and there's a lot more to his story.
Shortly after his encounter, Arnold had the first of many other sightings on his flight to Maury Island, a trip that began his informal role as the first civilian UFO investigator. He became interested in Charles Fort's books of phenomena and joined the Fortean Society. Over the years, he came to believe that the objects he'd seen were living creatures, possibly related to what Ezekiel had described in the Book of Revelation. There's a lot more to Kenneth Arnold's story than just his first sighting, but UFO history has largely ignored the story.
Ray Palmer and an Amazing Book
UFO historians have sought to diminish or deny the role of another pioneer, Raymond A. Palmer, who was promoting the reality of extraterrestrials space ships visiting the Earth as early as 1945. Palmer was a science fiction author, but interested in the reality of space travel, Fortean phenomena, Theosophy and all sorts of paranormal topics, so in 1948 he created a non-fiction magazine to discuss them, Fate magazine. Palmer wrote to Kenneth Arnold and persuaded him to tell his story, which became the cover feature for the first issue of Fate. As a result, the two men became life-long friends and worked together, the best-known example being their collaboration on the 1952 book, The Coming of the Saucers. In 1945 Ray Palmer became fascinated with something that's been called the American Bible, "... an amazing book called 'Oahspe' which purports to be a history of the past 79,000 years, both of the earth and of heaven... which ties into a cohesive whole all the legends and folktales of the world, and all the archeological discoveries of the past, and depicts a logical and convincing, and for the most part provable relationship between all the races of mankind for LONGER than science says civilized men existed on the earth, or even cave-men!" (Amazing Stories December 1945)
"Oahspe, A New Bible in the Words of Jehovih and His Angel Embassadors" was published in 1882, by John Ballou Newbrough supposedly written by automatic writing, channeling the word of Ormazd, "the Creator." In The UFO Phenomenon: Fact, Fantasy and Disinformation, John Michael Greer describes it's significance to UFOs and the extraterrestrial hypothesis.
"Like many channeled works, Oahspe defies easy characterization. Written in the style of the King James Bible, it combines Christian imagery with ideas borrowed from many other religions... What sets it apart most strikingly from the religious visions of a previous century, though, is the way it locates its theology in outer space. Its angels and gods live on countless planets... and travel from world to world in Etherean vessels that range from little scout craft to vast mother ships the size of a planet."
Ray Palmer's Mystic Magazine, May, 1954
These vessels are referred to as fire, sun and "star-ships." An example from Oahspe: "Then Osire left this high place and with his host, aboard the etherean ship of fire, sat out toward the earth, at break-neck speed; for such was the disposition of this most determined god." Ray Palmer promoted the text in the pages of his magazines over the years, and went on to publish three versions of it between 1960 and 1972, writing that, "Oahspe is truly a gateway to understanding."
Arnold's Souvenir Card
In 1950 Kenneth Arnold published The Flying Saucer as I Saw It, an the illustrated pamphlet to be sold as a souvenir at his lectures on the topic. He used the same saucer image for a calling card. His daughter, Kim Arnold wrote: “Kenneth Arnold used to give out philosophy cards to the many people he would meet. They were the size of a common business card. The front of the card had the image of the second to the last of the nine flying saucers he saw on June 24, 1947. The back of the card expressed this quote:”
Many people have inquired as to my philosophy – due to my involvement in the phenomenon known as "Flying Saucers.” The following I accept is worth thinking about.
A great man is the unbelieving man; he is without spiritual sight or spiritual hearing; his glory is in understanding his own understanding. It is he who subdues the forest, tames the beasts of the field to service. He goes alone in the dark, unafraid. He follows no man’s course, but, searches for himself; the priests cannot make him believe, nor the angels of heaven; none can subdue his judgment. He says: why permit others even priests, to you think for you? Stand on your own feet – be a man. Through his arm are tyrants and evil kings overthrown. Through him are doctrines and religions sifted to the bottom and the falsehood and evil in them cast aside. Who but the Creator could have created so great a man as the unbeliever?
KENNETH ARNOLD
It's an unusual piece of writing, not what you'd expect out of a man like Arnold. It turns out the language is taken from scripture. It's taken from Ray Palmer's beloved Oahspe.
Oahspe, a New Bible in the Words of Jehovih and His Angel Embassadors, Page 361
26. Nevertheless, the Creator created a great man amongst these; and such is the unbelieving man. He hath neither gold nor silver, nor house nor land; and he is without spiritual sight or spiritual hearing; but his glory is in understanding his own understanding. 27. He it is that subdueth the forest, and tameth the beasts of the field to man's service. He goeth alone in the dark, fearing naught. He followeth not the course of any man, but searcheth for himself; the priest cannot make him believe, nor can the angels of heaven; none can subdue his judgment. He beholdeth the glory of the earth and of manhood. He calleth to the multitude, saying: Why permit ye others, even priests, to think for you? Arise, O thou, and be a man! Arise, O thou, and be a woman! 28. He inspireth of the earth and for the earth; through his arms are tyrants and evil kings overthrown. Through him are doctrines and religions sifted to the bottom, and the falsehood and evil in them cast aside. Yea, who but Ormazd could have created so great a man as the unbeliever?
We can't know exactly how Arnold came to use the Oahspe text on his calling card, but there can be little doubt that his friend, Ray Palmer, was influential in its genesis.
Space news has recently been dominated by the discovery of fascinating new exoplanets. After NASA announced the discovery of the TRAPPIST-1 system, the internet briefly lost its mind with conjectures of these possibly habitable alien worlds. While those worlds might indeed harbor life, it is far too early to tell; based on the distance to the TRAPPIST-1 system, we might not know for decades. Just this week, however, a baffling exoplanet announcement by French astronomers has once more caught the imagination of space geeks everywhere and demonstrated that there are plenty of strange new worlds left to discover in the reaches of deep space.
The “planet” is relatively isolated and is not traveling through space as part of any group of stars or planets.
The announcement concerns the object CFBDSIR 2149-0403 (or CFBDSIR J214947.2-040308.9 if you’re not into the whole brevity thing), a strange object spotted by astronomers in 2012. While it first appeared to be a low-mass brown dwarf planet, a study published by researchers at Grenoble Alpes University is showing that CFBDSIR 2149-0403 might be a “rogue” planet which does not belong to a solar system, possibly the first of its kind. According to lead author Philippe Delorme, there are two likely hypotheses for the identity of the strange planet-like object:
CFBDSIR 2149-0403 is an atypical substellar object that is either a ‘free-floating planet’ or a rare high-metallicity brown dwarf. Or a combination of both.
Initial analyses concluded that CFBDSIR 2149-0403 was part of the AB Doradus Moving Group, a free-moving group of stars hurtling through the Milky Way. However, this new study conjectures that this “rogue” planet is indeed isolated and could even be an entirely unique celestial object.
The AB-Doradus group is a cluster of 30 stars of similar composition moving through space together.
According to the team’s open-source publication on arXiv.org, part of the problem in classifying CFBDSIR 2149-0403 lies in the fact that scientifically speaking, we have just begun to understand how to study the composition of exoplanets and other objects:
Our theoretical understanding of cool, low-gravity and/or metallicity-enhanced atmospheres is not yet robust enough to decisively discriminate between these two hypotheses, especiallybecause these physical parameters have very similar effects on the emergent spectra of such atmospheres.
Studies like these show just how little we know about even our galactic neighborhood, much less the expanse of the universe. As our telescopes and other long-range sensors improve, more and more mysterious, unexplained objects are being discovered. Who knows what unknown wonders might lie just beyond our perception?
Bad news, alien seekers. A leading scientist tackles the Fermi paradox with his theory that the reason why aliens haven’t contacted us (assuming you don’t believe they’re already here) is because they…
