Giant 200 Meter Beam Of Light Over Volcano And It Moves! March 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Giant 200 Meter Beam Of Light Over Volcano And It Moves! March 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: March 2017 Location of sighting: Mount Etna, Sicily, Italy This giant 200 meter beam of light was seen over the volcano mouth, then it began to move to the right, as if a space ship was beaming someone down and didn't account for the rotation of the earth speed. Very amazing sighting and it was caught byBPEarthWatch of Youtube. He gets scared sometimes when he posts alien subject material and then he delete these videos...someone should make a back up just in case this happens again like last time he posted one. Scott C. Waring
Huge UFOs caught on tape over Henderson, Nevada 17-Mar-2017
Huge UFOs caught on tape over Henderson, Nevada 17-Mar-2017
Here’s another interesting footage of a huge unidentified flying objects hovering above Summerlin area of Las Vegas, Nevada. This was filmed on Friday, 17th March 2017.
An amazing cluster of strange lights was spotted flying towards a local body of water. Two observers reportedly sighted the unusual event in the nighttime sky and observed it for around one hour.
One witness sent photos and a video to NUFORC, which described them to be high quality.
Anyone who saw the same objects in the NUFORC website is encouraged to submit a written report using the Online Report Form.
According to the reporting witness, the UFOs appeared to be barbell-shaped.
Some viewers of the video thought they were planes at first but doubted with their formation if they were indeed planes. One comment says that if they are not planes then, they are unidentified. Commenter tall32guy said, “Bizarre, a bit spooky to me, indeed.”
NASA Wants to Launch a Giant Magnetic Field to Make Mars Habitable
NASA Wants to Launch a Giant Magnetic Field to Make Mars Habitable
NASA scientists have proposed a bold plan that could give Mars its atmosphere back and make the Red Planet habitable for future generations of human colonists.
By launching a giant magnetic shield into space to protect Mars from solar winds, the space agency says we could restore the Red Planet’s atmosphere, and terraform the Martian environment so that liquid water flows on the surface once again.
Mars may seem like a cold, arid wasteland these days, but the Red Planet is thought to have once had a thick atmosphere that could have maintained deep oceans filled with liquid water, and a warmer, potentially habitable climate.
Scientists think Mars lost all of this when its protective magnetic field collapsed billions of years ago, and solar wind – high-energy particles projected from the Sun – has been stripping the Red Planet’s atmosphere away ever since.
Now, new simulations by NASA suggest there could be a way to naturally give Mars its thick atmosphere back – and it doesn’t require nuking the Red Planet into submission, as Elon Musk once proposed.
Instead, the space agency thinks a powerful-enough magnetic shield launched into space could serve as a replacement for Mars’s own lost magnetosphere, giving the planet a chance to naturally restore its own atmosphere.
In new findings presented at the Planetary Science Vision 2050 Workshop last week, NASA’s Planetary Science Division director, Jim Green, said launching an “artificial magnetosphere” into space between Mars and the Sun could hypothetically shield the Red Planet in the extended magnetotail that trails behind the protective field.
“This situation then eliminates many of the solar wind erosion processes that occur with the planet’s ionosphere and upper atmosphere allowing the Martian atmosphere to grow in pressure and temperature over time,” the researchers explain in anaccompanying paper.
While the team acknowledges that the concept might sound “fanciful”, they point to existing miniature magnetosphere researchbeing conducted to protect astronauts and spacecraft from cosmic radiation, and think that the same technology on a larger scale could be used to shield Mars.
“It may be feasible that we can get up to these higher field strengths that are necessary to provide that shielding,” Green said in his presentation.
“We need to be able then to also modify that direction of the magnetic field so that it always pushes the solar wind away.”
In the team’s simulations, if the solar wind were counteracted by the magnetic shield, Mars’s atmospheric losses would stop, and the atmosphere would regain as much as half the atmospheric pressure of Earth in a matter of years.
As the atmosphere becomes thicker, the team estimates Mars’s climate would become around 4 degrees Celsius (7.2 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer, which would be enough to melt carbon dioxide ice over the Red Planet’s northern polar cap.
If this happened, the carbon in the atmosphere would help to trap heat like it does on Earth, triggering a greenhouse effect that could melt Mars’s water ice, giving the Red Planet back its liquid water in the form of flowing rivers and oceans.
If all of this were to occur as the team anticipates – and admittedly, that’s a pretty fantastical if – it’s possible that, within the space of a couple of generations, Mars could regain some of its lost Earth-like habitability.
“This is not terraforming as you may think of it where we actually artificially change the climate, but we let nature do it, and we do that based on the physics we know today,” Green said.
The team acknowledges that the plan is largely hypothetical at this point, but it’s a pretty amazing vision for what might be possible in the years ahead. The researchers intend to keep studying the possibilities to get a more accurate estimate of how long the climate-altering effects would take.
If the concept does prove workable, there’s no telling just how much it would alter the prospects of colonising Mars in the future.
“Much like Earth, an enhanced atmosphere would: allow larger landed mass of equipment to the surface, shield against most cosmic and solar particle radiation, extend the ability for oxygen extraction, and provide ‘open air’ green-houses to exist for plant production, just to name a few,” the researchers explain.
“If this can be achieved in a lifetime, the colonisation of Mars would not be far away.”
IF YOU THINK WE ARE ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE – YOU MIGHT WANT TO SEE THIS
IF YOU THINK WE ARE ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE – YOU MIGHT WANT TO SEE THIS
One of the most popular questions today is, “Are we alone in the universe?” Believe it or not, you’re in the minority if you believe that absolutely no intelligent life exists outside of planet Earth. In the United States alone, at least half of all Americans say that we’re not alone in the universe. Fifty percent of Americans already believe that there is some form of life on other planets, while only seventeen percent believe there is not. A quarter of Americans believe that intelligent extraterrestrial visitors have already come to Earth and have been doing so for a long time. (source)
Here’s one of them:
“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time.” (source) (source) – Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 Astronaut, Air Force Captain, and Founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences
There are multiple reasons why the extraterrestrial question continues to gain popularity. People are starting to ask questions about the world around them, utilizing critical thinking and investigative skills. After thoroughly looking into this topic, it seems inevitable that you will arrive at these conclusions: We are not alone, and we are being visited.
1. The Size of the Universe
How often do you look up into the night sky and wonder just how many stars, planets, galaxies, and more are out there? Space has always fascinated us. From scientists and philosophers to artists and poets (and pretty much just about everyone else, too), we all want to know what’s out there. What is it about deep space that so ignites our collective imagination? Thinking about just how big the universe is can really put things into perspective.
Counting the stars in the universe is like trying to count the number of sand grains on a beach (impossible). Although estimates vary among different experts, the general consensus is that there are at least between 100 billion and 200 billion galaxies in our universe. Think about that for a moment, and now throw in billions of stars in each galaxy! (source) And for all we know, this number could very easily be in the trillions.
Take the Milky Way Galaxy for example, which measures about 120,000 light years across (it would take light that many years to travel across the galaxy), and contains up to 400 billion stars.
Again, we’re talking about billions of galaxies that contain billions of stars. (source)
Scientists estimate that at least 10 billion habitable Earth-sized planets exist in the Milky Way alone, but it’s important to keep an open mind about what type of conditions and environments some unknown extraterrestrial forms could thrive in. They all don’t necessarily have to be Earth-like; the conditions we deem necessary for life might be exclusive to life on this planet, or this type of planet.
Given our estimation of the size of the universe, or multiverse (whatever you want to call it), odds are we are not alone.
2. Whistleblowers
The past few years have seen a surge of whistleblowers come out and say some pretty remarkable things. Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden, and Julian Assange have received the most attention, but the reality is that hundreds of whistleblowers with verified credentials and backgrounds have come forward. Mass surveillance and the security state are not the only things shocking people around the world, it’s also the fact that many of these whistleblowers claim that we are not alone in the universe. They wouldn’t be so hard to ignore if it wasn’t for the backgrounds these people have in their respected fields.
The first one that comes to mind is Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defence Minister, the man responsible for combining the Canadian Air Force, Army, and Navy into one united force, now known as the Canadian Forces. Someone with such a background coming out and making these extraordinary claims is definitely going to have the attention of many people.
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about where we were headed and offered to help. But instead, we, or at least some of us, interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after… . Trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on projects about which both the Congress and the Commander in Chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.” (source)
“In one of the cases during the cold war, 1961, there were about 50 UFOs in formation flying South from Russia across Europe. The supreme allied commander was very concerned and was about ready to press the panic button when they turned around and went back over the North Pole. They decided to do an investigation and they investigated for three years and they decided that with absolute certainty that four different species, at least, have been visiting this planet for thousands of years. There’s been a lot more activity in the past two decades, especially since we invented the atomic bomb.”
Paul Hellyer isn’t the only one making extraordinary statements, at least a dozen NASA astronauts have done the same. Just like Dr. Edgar Mitchell’s quote, other astronauts have said some remarkable things. Let’s take a look at a few examples.
“There is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been monitoring us for a very long time, that their appearance is bizarre from any type of traditional materialistic western point of view. That these visitors use the technologies of consciousness, they use toroids, they use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, that seems to be a common denominator of the UFO phenomenon” (source) – Dr. Brian O’Leary, Former NASA Astronaut and Princeton Physics Professor
“In my opinion I think they were worried that it would panic the public if they knew that someone had vehicles that had this kind of performance … so they started telling lies about it. And then I think they had to cover another lie, you know, tell another lie to cover their first lie, now they don’t know how to get out of it. Now it’s going to be so embarrassing to admit that all these administrations have told a lot of untruths…. [and that] there are a number of extraterrestrial vehicles out there cruising around.” (source) – Gordon Cooper, Former NASA Astronaut, Aeronautical Engineer, and test pilot; one of the seven original astronauts in Project Mercury, the first manned space program of the United States
The list goes on and on, the latest in NASA Astronaut statements about UFOs came from the 2005 International Space Station (ISS) Commander, Leroy Chiao.
Here is a video of John Podesta, recently appointed as councillor to Barack Obama, supporting UFO disclosure.
Some of the most extraordinary statements about UFOs and extraterrestrials come from people who have held some of the highest positions possible — those who would be in a position to ‘know’ about possible extraterrestrial encounters.
“Behind the scenes, high ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense.” Former head of CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960 (source)
“There are objects in our atmosphere which are technically miles in advance of anything we can deploy, that we have no means of stopping them coming here … [and] that there is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, from other civilizations. That it behooves us, in case some of these people in the future or now should turn hostile, to find out who they are, where they come from, and what they want. This should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” (source) – Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee
“Everything is in a process of investigation, both in the United States and in Spain, as well as the rest of the world. The nations of the world are currently working together in the investigation of the UFO phenomenon. There is an international exchange of data.” – General Carlos Castro Cavero (1979), from UFOs and the National Security State, Volume 2, written by Richard Dolan
The list of military whistleblowers is huge, there are hundreds of them and hundreds of quotes to choose from. To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE. You can also look up Dr. Steven Greer and the disclosure project.
The list of quotes from many people, working in diverse fields, is outstanding. I could literally fill pages upon pages, but I’ll stop here, I think you get the picture. I do, however, want to spend a little bit more time on the reason why almost everyone knows that we are not alone in the universe.
“There is another way whether it’s wormholes or warping space, there’s got to be a way to generate energy so that you can pull it out of the vacuum, and the fact that they’re here shows us that they found a way.” (source) – Jack Kasher, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus of Physics, University of Nebraska.
“This thing has gotten so highly-classified…it is just impossible to get anything on it. I have no idea who controls the flow of need-to-know because, frankly, I was told in such an emphatic way that it was none of my business that I’ve never tried to make it to be my business since. I have been interested in this subject for a long time and I do know that whatever the Air Force has on the subject is going to remain highly classified.” – Senator Barry Goldwater , Chairman of the Senate intelligence committee(source)
3. The Evidence of UFOs
Over the past few years, dozens of governments have admitted to allocating resources towards the study of UFOs. For instance, in Canada, the RCMP, Transport Canada, and the Department of National Defence recently admitted to tracking and investigating UFOs. (source) They’ve been doing it for years, accumulating thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents. Many of these documents have since been officially released.
HERE is the latest batch of UFO files released from the United Kingdom.
Documents released by the National Security Agency (NSA) reveal what is recorded when a UFO is being tracked on radar. HERE is one example. HERE is a four page U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and NSA report describing a particular encounter in great detail.
“As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4.”
HERE is a Wikileak cable that describes how some politicians already know we are not alone in the universe.
I could go on forever. Thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents are now available in the public domain. For a summary of more documents that have been declassified and made available, check out this short video by Richard Dolan.
4. Mass Mainstream Media Attention
Media outlets of all kinds are covering the topic, almost every movie that comes out these days has something to do with space or some kind of extraterrestrial intelligence. We’ve been bombarded with the topic for a while now so it’s not hard to see why so many people are thinking about it.
The most recent case of mainstream extraterrestrial noise was made when scientists spoke to the house Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Dan Werthimer, of the SETI Research Centre at the University of California, Berkeley, recently called for more funding to be allocated to the search for extraterrestrial life since he is “close to 100 percent” certain that we are not alone. (source)
In mid 2013, the same committee held a hearing about exoplanet discoveries, but perhaps one of the largest UFO/extraterrestrial hearings took place at the National Press Club, which was also held in Mid-2013. At this event, hundreds of researchers, activists, and military/agency/political witnesses, representing ten countries, gave UFO/extraterrestrial testimony to six former members of the United States Congress about events and evidence indicating an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
2008 presidential candidate and former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska) said that there is “an extraterrestrial influence that is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously.” You can learn more about the citizens hearing here.
Apart from these events, UFOs are a continual topic of interest in today’s mainstream news. Unfortunately, most mainstream media outlets which cover it seek only to ridicule, rather than investigate, the issue seriously.
To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE.
There are millions of people out there claiming to have contact with extraterrestrial beings. This has played a large role in spreading the influence of extraterrestrial interest across the world. All of us seem to be naturally fascinated with the unknown, especially when it comes to space. It seems like human nature.
Neuroscience can now explain what happens to our body when we meditate, but it’s something we all knew to be beneficial before the science. Is extraterrestrial life similar? Is it something we all feel deep down inside, something we don’t need proof for (even though the proof is there)?
Besides the thousands of videos available on YouTube, there is some very fascinating officially documented UFO footage available for us to see.
HE RE is a video that made headlines when it was released. It came straight from the Mexican Air Force. Do a quick UFO search on YouTube and, while you’ll see many fakes, you’ll also find many genuine videos of unknown aerial objects.
Final Thoughts
A few years ago the question was, “Do UFOs exist?” Today that question has been answered, and the presence of UFOs performing maneuvers which defy our laws of physics has been well documented. The question has more so shifted to, “Is that an extraterrestrial spacecraft?”
It’s nothing to fear, in my opinion they’ve been around forever. They were aware of us long before we became aware of them. As speculated with our ancient civilizations in Earth’s brief past, perhaps they will one day interact with humanity again. I guess we will see.
Perhaps some groups are concerned about our planet, and come here to push the idea that we need to start changing the way we are doing things. Perhaps one day soon we will find out.
I definitely believe that a good chunk of these UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin. I also believe that many of these crafts are “ours.”

NASA DETECTS A WARM OCEAN BENEATH SATURN MOON'S SURFACE
NASA DETECTS A WARM OCEAN BENEATH SATURN MOON'S SURFACE
Despite many of the controversies with agencies like NASA with some of their choices in the past and their lack of transparency in a lot of the more controversial topics like UFOs and alien discoveries, there are no complaints to be made when it comes to less controversial information.
NASA is always the first to reveal their hypotheses as well as release information to the science world and the general public when it comes to new findings in the realm of space.
NASA does not disappoint in a recent finding that they have recently released to the public. According to NASA's recent findings there has been an usually large amount of heat being emitted from Saturn's moon of Enceladus. The reason why something like this is relevant and important is because it may in fact domino effect into something else that is just as fascinating to scientists and those who are interested. When this occurs the chance for something called tiger stripes can occur. Tiger stripes are fractures on the moon's South Pole, which creates unique blue lines on the surface of the planet.
Leaving UFO Hunters Baffled! Another dynamic of this finding is that this means there is a body of water that is very close nearby to create this effect of increased heating, which was not known about before. This has created a lot amount of interest to surface around this topic. This could create a large amount of controversy however, because research has always indicated that a body of water means that there is a potential chance of some sort of living thing to exist on that planet. Could the Earth sudden have long-distance neighbors all the way from Saturn?
This is not the controversial part of the story though. The controversial thing is that like stated in the beginning, NASA has the tendency to become much more quiet when it comes to revealing potential living things existing on planets not from Earth. This could possibly indicate that the public is probably not going to be receiving anymore updates about this heat signature increase and body of water finding, unless it is shown to not have any life at all. This is where much of the controversy stems from. The mentality of only sharing things that are not controversial, while storing all of the devastating information for themselves and the government.
It is important to heavenly monitor what happens next for those who are interested in this topic to see how much longer NASA stays transparent on the issue at hand. Saturn is not a planet that is often spoken about or researched, however NASA has taken an unusually large amount of interest in Saturn to the point that they are willing to send a drone into space to go and research it farther. This drone is known as Cassini and has been on the job of researching Saturn for a good amount of time. The blue markings etched onto the moon are almost scary as Saturn's moon seems to look veiny and pulsating like it has its own heartbeat. This is definitely a fascinating find and is definitely worth following closely.
This could also speak to Saturn suffering from something the Earth has had a fear of for the last few centuries in global warming. The sudden heat is highly unexpected and the ice sheets on the rings of Saturn have been unusually low, to the point that NASA is finding this out all the way from planet Earth, so this could also be a huge and dangerous finding by indicating that global warming does in fact exist and it could be coming towards the Earth sooner rather than later. Something unusually creepy is occurring on Saturn, so this is an exciting yet fearful finding from NASA.

OPERATION HIGHJUMP DISCOVERED PARTS OF ANTARCTICA ARE WARM! WHAT'S HIDDEN THERE?
OPERATION HIGHJUMP DISCOVERED PARTS OF ANTARCTICA ARE WARM! WHAT'S HIDDEN THERE?
Last week, scientists from the Canada and Europe published a research, which has not been done before. The research focus was on the western part of Antarctica.
The results from the research have confirmed previous fears - that Antarctica melts from the bottom.
ANTARCTICA - WARM INDEED!
The scientists have measured the temperature of the water in places, going go to a depth of one kilometer, in the western part of Antarctica. It turns out that the flow of 110,000 cubic meters of warm water is flowing to Antarctica every second. This hot water melts between 50 to 70 billion tons of ice, and it tapers to about 20 meters each year.
This is crucial because the water escapes into the ocean water. The ice cap on Western Antarctica slowly melts, and that part is larger in area than Germany. If all of this ice turns into water, then the oceans would rise by about two meters.
These scientists have made measurements at five different locations around the Western Antarctica. On a couple of the sites have discovered that the ocean is very deep. They have found an underwater canyon with a depth of 500 meters that splits into two; one is about 700 meters and the other over 1.200 meters deep. Both branches are wider than 4 kilometers. It is during these canyons running huge undersea flow of hot water to the Antarctica. Research has shown that the ice that has disappeared exactly matches the amount of heat coming from the ocean.
OPERATION HIGHJUMP
The warm place is named after Commander David E Bunger, the man who led a team of US Navy explorers to the breathtaking discovery in 1949, the region boasts “melt ponds” and unfrozen lakes.
Bunger’s discovery was part of Operation Highjump – a secret navy task force. The film 'The Secret Land' – released in 1948 – documented the exploration and captured the dramatic moment Bunger and his team found Antarctica’s most unlikely secret.
Conspiracy theorists have long claimed Antarctica is hiding secrets hidden by the powers that be.

Metallic sphere seven times size of Jupiter found - and it’s PROOF of aliens, hunters say
Metallic sphere seven times size of Jupiter found - and it’s PROOF of aliens, hunters say
ASTRONOMERS have detected a rogue, highly-metallic object in deep space which they are baffled by the presence of, leading conspiracy theorists to the conclusion this is proof we are not alone.
In 2012, astronomers spotted a “perplexing, isolated” object that was found to have a mass four to seven times that of Jupiter – by far the biggest planet in the solar system – around 100 lightyears away.
Experts believed it was the closest rogue planet ever found, but after studying the object over the past several years, researchers say that it might not be what they had originally thought.
The object, known as CFBDSIR 2149-0403, was thought to have been a planet that was kicked out of its star system or never had one in the first place and is now lonelily orbiting the Milky Way Galaxy.
With the possibility of it being a planet not as realistic as first thought, astronomers began theorising it could be a brown dwarf star but again this seems unlikely as it is too small, with the smallest brown dwarf stars having about 13 times the mass of Jupiter.
It had also been thought that the object was moving along in a group of objects called the AB Doradus, which would have given it an age of 50 to 120 million years old.
However, it later separated from these objects, leaving the astronomers clueless about its age.
A team of researchers from the Grenoble Alpes University in France wrote in their study published in arXiv: "Our new ... parallax and kinematics safely rule out membership to any known young moving group, including AB~Doradus.”
YOUTUBE
The object has baffled astronomers
Lead author Philippe Delorme told Phys: "Though determining that certainly improved our knowledge of the object it also made it more difficult to study, by adding age as a free parameter.”
With the possibility of a star ruled out, the astronomers have broadened their theory, saying that it could be a “combination of both”.
GETTY
Some believe it could be a Dyson Sphere
However, alien conspiracists believe that it could be of ET origin, due to its highly metallic content.
One theory that has quickly arose, according to YouTube channel SecureTeam10, is that it is potentially a Dyson Sphere – a large structure built by an extraterrestrial civilisation that orbits a star and harnesses energy from it.
The video starts by saying: “Scientists and astronomers have located a rogue object about 100 lightyears away that is exhibiting some strange characteristics which is once again challenging what we know about the universe with which we live, and the objects found within that universe.”
GETTY
Is this proof of aliens?
It adds that “this object either has very low gravity, or an unusually low or an unusually high metal content”, implying that it could be a man-made, or more specifically an alien-made, structure.
For any doubters that ridicule the idea of an alien civilisation, the narrator of the video says that “it is mathematically impossible that we are the only life in the universe.”
It does have three lights which could mean its a TR-3B military craft, but its hard to tell at night.
Scott C Waring
"Two were 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 brother-in-law came outside and saw it as well."
The witness said they started recording again and "its white light changed to red and began pulsating slowly with the other two lights now turned off".
They added: "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.
In the meantime Express.co.uk sent the footage to UFO investigator Scott Brando, who is renowned for exposing hoax and misinterpreted pictures and videos.
He said many reported so-called triangular UFOs turn out to be just aircraft navigation or landing lights.
He said: "The three lights could be related to aircraft, but it's really hard to identify it as airliner or military aircraft.
"In this case I can only say that those three lights could be related to navigation lights by a plane or a different aircraft."

Nieuw onderzoek suggereert dat het mysterieuze goedje nu invloedrijker is dan in de jonge jaren van het heelal.
Dat concluderen astronomen in het blad Nature. Ze baseren zich op een onderzoek naar de rotatie van zes zware sterren vormende stelsels op zeer grote afstand van de aarde.
TWIJFELS OVER DONKERE MATERIE
Eigenlijk is donkere materie door onderzoekers ‘bedacht’ om te kunnen verklaren waarom snel roterende sterrenstelsels niet uiteenvallen. Of donkere materie echt bestaat, is onduidelijk. We kunnen het immers niet zien. Het bestaan ervan is alleen af te leiden uit het zwaartekrachtseffect dat het op zichtbare materie heeft. Overigens zijn lang niet alle onderzoekers ervan overtuigd dat donkere materie bestaat. Vorig jaar stelde de Nederlandse hoogleraar Erik Verlinde nog dat donkere materie niet bestaat en dat we het ook niet nodig hebben om te verklaren waarom snel roterende sterrenstelsels niet uiteenvallen.
Donkere materie Sterrenstelsels roteren. En vrij snel ook. Zo snel dat je eigenlijk zou verwachten dat ze uiteenvallen. Maar dat gebeurt niet. Hoe kan dat? Onderzoekers wijten het aan donkere materie: een onzichtbaar goedje dat dienst doet als een soort ‘superlijm’ en voorkomt dat snel roterende sterrenstelsels uiteenvallen (zie kader).
In het jonge heelal In dit nieuwe onderzoek bestudeerden wetenschappers roterende zware sterren vormende stelsels die ver van ons verwijderd zijn. Omdat het licht van deze sterrenstelsels miljarden jaren moet reizen alvorens het ons bereikt, zien we deze sterrenstelsels nu zoals deze er 10 miljard jaar geleden, oftewel in de tijd van het jonge heelal, uitzagen. Uit de waarnemingen van de onderzoekers blijkt dat deze sterrenstelsels op een belangrijk punt afwijken van de spiraalstelsels zoals we die in het huidige heelal zien. De buitenste delen van de sterrenstelsels uit het vroege heelal draaien namelijk veel langzamer dan de delen dichter bij de kern. Het suggereert dat er minder donkere materie aanwezig is dan verwacht.
Hier zie je een schematische weergave van draaiende schijfstelsels in het vroege heelal (rechts) en in het moderne heelal (links). De nieuwe waarnemingen suggereren dat zware sterren-vormende stelsels in het voege heelal minder sterk beïnvloed werden door donkere materie (rood ingekleurd), omdat donkere materie nog minder geconcentreerd was. Daardoor draaiden de buitenste delen van de verre sterrenstelsels minder snel dan dezelfde delen van sterrenstelsels in het lokale heelal.

Kleine rol voor donkere materie “Verrassend genoeg zijn de rotatiesnelheden in de sterrenstelsels niet constant, maar nemen ze naar buiten toe af,” vertelt onderzoeker Reinhard Genzel. “Dat heeft waarschijnlijk twee oorzaken. Allereerst worden de meeste van deze vroege zware sterrenstelsels gedomineerd door normale materie, en speelt donkere materie een veel kleinere rol dan in het lokale heelal. Op de tweede plaats waren de schijven van deze vroege stelsels veel turbulenter dan de spiraalstelsels die we in onze kosmische nabijheid zien.”
En hoe verder we teruggaan in het verleden, hoe sterker de door Renzel beschreven effecten tot uiting komen. Het suggereert dat het gas zich drie tot vier miljard jaar na de oerknal al had georganiseerd in platte, draaiende schijven, maar dat de omhullende halo’s van donkere materie zich nog over een veel groter volume uitstrekten. Het zou betekenen dat donkere materie miljarden jaren meer tijd nodig had om zich te verdichten en pas veel later een dominante rol ging spelen in het universum. Het is in lijn met eerdere waarnemingen die aantoonden dat vroege sterrenstelsels veel gasrijker en compacter waren dan de huidige sterrenstelsels.
Twee missies naar de grootste gasplaneet van ons zonnestelsel stonden tot vandaag op losse schroeven. Nu is bekend geworden dat een Europese missie doorgaat, terwijl de Amerikanen hun missie naar Jupiter schrappen.
Eerst het slechte nieuws. NASA gaat geen lander op de maan Europa plaatsen. Vorige maand presenteerde een speciale onderzoekscommissie nog een mooi rapport over hoe zo’n missie eruit ziet, maar het is afgeschoten door president Trump. Overigens ligt dit in de lijn der verwachting, want de Amerikanen hebben al een andere missie naar Europa goedgekeurd: de Europa Clipper. Deze ruimtesonde zal 45 scheervluchten langs Europa maken en onderzoeken waar de maan uit bestaat en of er leven mogelijk is in de onderzeese oceaan.
Het budget voor de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie daalt al jaren. In 1966 ging 4,4% van het nationale budget naar NASA, dit jaar is dat nog maar een half procent. Volgens de voorlopige prognose trekt president Trump de lijn van de afgelopen jaren door. Er komen dus geen grote bezuinigingen voor NASA, maar er komt ook niet veel geld bij. Het budget voor 2018 is iets meer dan 19 miljard dollar.
Artistieke impressie van ESA’s JUICE-ruimtevaartuig
En dan het goede nieuws: ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer-missie gaat (nog steeds) door. De Europese ruimtevaartorganisatie meldt dat de laatste hindernissen zijn genomen en dat er nu echt wordt begonnen met de constructie. In 2022 wordt dit ruimtevaartuig gelanceerd. In 2029 komt JUICE aan bij Jupiter. Er volgt dan een 3,5 jaar durend onderzoek, waarbij de ruimtesonde de turbulente atmosfeer van de gasplaneet in kaart brengt. Ook onderzoekt JUICE de enorme magnetosfeer, Joviaanse manen en de donkere ringen om de planeet. Aan boord van JUICE vinden we de beste instrumenten. Denk hierbij aan meerdere camera’s, een hoogtemeter, een radarinstrument en sensoren om de magnetische velden en geladen deeltjes te monitoren.
De meren op Saturnus' maan Titan 'bubbelen' misschien
De meren op Saturnus' maan Titan 'bubbelen' misschien
Caroline Kraaijvanger
Experimenten suggereren dat stikstof zich soms uit de met methaan en ethaan gevulde meren weghaast en daarbij ontstaan..bubbels. Heel veel bubbels.
Dat stellen onderzoekers van NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Ze baseren zich op experimenten waarbij ze de omstandigheden op het oppervlak van Titan simuleerden.
Stikstof Uit de experimenten blijkt dat grote hoeveelheden stikstof opgelost kunnen worden in het extreem koude methaan dat op Titan uit de hemel komt vallen en zich in rivieren, meren en zeeën verzamelt. Maar wanneer dat methaan vervolgens geconfronteerd wordt met een verandering in temperatuur of luchtdruk of samenstelling, kan het stikstof het hazenpad kiezen. Het verlaat de oplossing dan heel snel, net zoals koolstof dat doet wanneer je een fles frisdrank opent. Het resultaat? Bubbels!
BUBBELS? DAT KAN EEN PROBLEEM ZIJN!
Onderzoekers dromen van een ruimtemissie naar Titan en fantaseren al over een robotische sonde die in een meer van Titan plonst en er vervolgens rond gaat varen. Bubbels in die meren kunnen een bedreiging vormen voor zo’n ‘bootje’.
Mix van ethaan en methaan Die bubbels kunnen bijvoorbeeld ontstaan als methaan zich mixt met ethaan, zo legt onderozeker Michael Malaska uit. “Onze experimenten tonen aan dat wanneer methaanrijke vloeistoffen zich mengen met ethaanrijke vloestoffen – bijvoorbeeld tijdens een heftige regenbui of wanneer een methaanrivier uitkomt in een ethaanrijk meer – de stikstof minder goed in staat is om in de oplossing te blijven.” Dat methaan- en ethaanrijke vloeistoffen zich wel eens mixen op Titan is niet zo heel vergezocht. Waarnemingen van ruimtesonde Cassini toonden eerder al aan dat de samenstelling van Titans meren en zeeën van plaats tot plaats verschilt. Op sommige plekken domineert het methaan, terwijl elders ethaan overheerst.
Magische eilanden Wellicht kunnen de bubbels een groot mysterie op Titan oplossen. We hebben het over de zogenoemde ‘magic islands’. Kleine vlekken in zeeën op Titan die op beelden die Cassini van de maan maakte, opduiken en weer verdwijnen (om soms vervolgens opnieuw op te duiken). Onduidelijk is nog wat deze eiland-achtige vlekken zijn. Sommige onderzoekers denken dat het om golven gaat. Maar een andere optie is dat het een verzameling bubbels is.
Hier zie je Ligeia Mare, een zee op Titan. In deze zee is een ‘magic island’ gedetecteerd. Het ontstond ergens tussen 2007 en 2013 en was in 2015 weer een eind weg. Mogelijk gaat het dus om een eilandje ‘bubbels’.
Afbeelding: NASA / JPL-Caltech / ASI / Cornell.
Of er daadwerkelijk bubbels in de zeeën van Titan ontstaan en of zij ook verantwoordelijk zijn voor de magic islands kan later dit jaar nog duidelijk worden. Dan scheert Cassini namelijk voor de allerlaatste keer langs Titan. En tijdens die scheervlucht laat de sonde zijn radarbundel over de maan glijden. Als er dan ‘magic islands’ gespot worden, kan hun helderheid verraden of het om bubbels gaat.
Enceladus' oceaan ligt mogelijk dichter bij het oppervlak dan gedacht
Enceladus' oceaan ligt mogelijk dichter bij het oppervlak dan gedacht
Caroline Kraaijvanger
Door ruimtesonde Cassini verzamelde gegevens suggereren dat de oceaan op de zuidpool slechts enkele kilometers onder Enceladus’ ijzige korst ligt.
Enceladus is één van de manen van Saturnus. De maan is bedekt met een kilometers dik pak ijs. Onder dat dikke pak ijs gaat hoogstwaarschijnlijk een vloeibare oceaan schuil. Nieuw onderzoek – gebaseerd op gegevens die ruimtesonde Cassini tijdens een scheervlucht langs Enceladus verzamelde – suggereert nu dat die oceaan veel dichter aan het oppervlak ligt dan gedacht.
Warmer “De observaties (van de zuidpool, red.) voorzien ons van een uniek inkijkje in wat er onder het oppervlak gebeurt,” vertelt onderzoeker Alice Le Gall. “Ze laten zien dat de eerste paar meters onder het oppervlak van het gebied dat we bestudeerden veel warmer zijn dan gedacht.” De onderzoekers maten temperaturen van zo’n 50 tot 60 Kelvin. Dat is koud, maar wel warmer dan verwacht. “Op sommige plaatsen zelfs tot wel 20 Kelvin warmer dan we verwacht hadden.”
Niet aan het oppervlak De gedetecteerde warmte lijkt zich te bevinden onder een veel koudere ijslaag, aangezien de temperatuurafwijking alleen werd waargenomen wanneer onderzoekers het gebied bestudeerden met instrumenten die de temperaturen onder het oppervlak konden meten. Instrumenten die zich beperkten tot het meten van de temperatuur aan het oppervlak detecteerden in exact hetzelfde gebied geen vergelijkbare temperatuurafwijkingen.
In het hart van deze afbeelding zie je duidelijk de ‘tijgerstrepen’ van Enceladus: vier warme breuken in de ijzige korst van de maan. Boven en rechts van de strepen zie je het gebied dat de onderzoekers bestudeerden. In de gele gebieden is de temperatuurafwijking het grootst. Je ziet dat die gebieden boven de tijgerstrepen liggen.
Afbeelding: NASA / JPL-Caltech / Space Science Institute / A. Lucas
Tijgerstrepen De temperatuurafwijkingen bleken bovendien het grootst te zijn boven drie ‘tijgerstrepen’ op het oppervlak van Enceladus. Dit zijn breuken in de ijzige korst van de maan. In 2005 zag Cassini door dergelijke tijgerstrepen water- en ijsdeeltjes ontsnappen: een eerste aanwijzing dat Enceladus een oceaan herbergde. Wat nu echter opvalt, is dat de temperatuurafwijking het meest uitgesproken is boven tijgerstrepen die op dat moment niet actief waren, oftewel geen water- en ijs spoten. Dat deze ‘slapende’ breuken boven een warme, ondergrondse zee liggen, bewijst volgens Le Gall het dynamische karakter van Enceladus’ geologie. Ze wijst erop dat de maan in het verleden op verschillende locaties meerdere perioden van activiteit heeft gekend.
Getijdenwerking Maar waar komt de op de zuidpool waargenomen warmte nu eigenlijk precies vandaan? “Deze kan niet alleen verklaard worden door belichting door de zon en in nog mindere mate door de warmte van Saturnus, dus er moet een extra warmtebron zijn.” Mogelijk houdt die ondergrondse warmtebron verband met de ovaalvormige baan die Enceladus rond gasreus Saturnus trekt. Deze baan brengt de maan soms heel dicht bij Saturnus en voert deze soms ook ver weg van de gasreus. Op het moment dat de afstand tussen de maan en gasreus klein is, trekt Saturnus met zijn zwaartekracht sterk aan Enceladus, waardoor de maan iets uitrekt. Als de maan eenmaal wat verder van de gasreus verwijderd is, ‘ontspant’ deze weer. Dat getouwtrek zorgt niet alleen voor breuken aan het oppervlak, maar ook voor frictie in het hart van Enceladus en daarbij ontstaat warmte. In dit scenario wordt de dunne ijskorst in het zuidpoolgebied van Enceladus sterker vervormd door getijdenwerking dan andere delen van de maan, waardoor dus juist in dit gebied meer warmte ontstaat en ondergronds water vloeibaar wordt gehouden.
Twee kilometer? De onderzoekers onderzochten slechts een klein deel van Enceladus’ zuidpoolgebied. Het gaat om een strookje van ongeveer 500 kilometer lang en 25 kilometer breed. Le Gall en collega’s achten het echter zeer aannemelijk dat hun waarnemingen representatief zijn voor het gehele zuidpoolgebied. Het zou betekenen dat het hele gebied op enkele meters onder het oppervlak warmer is dan gedacht. En dat de oceaan veel dichter aan het oppervlak ligt dan onderzoekers aannamen. Mogelijk ligt deze slechts 2 kilometer diep. Dat is in lijn met recent onderzoek dat vorig jaar verscheen. De studie suggereerde dat de ijskap van Enceladus een gemiddelde dikte heeft van 18 tot 22 kilometer, maar naar de zuidpool toe dunner wordt (dunner dan vijf kilometer).
Als de oceaan daadwerkelijk zo dicht aan het oppervlak ligt, is dat goed nieuws. Het suggereert namelijk dat we deze oceaan gemakkelijker kunnen bestuderen dan gedacht. “Als Enceladus’ ondergrondse zee echt zo dicht aan het oppervlak ligt als deze studie suggereert dan kan een toekomstige missie naar deze maan die uitgerust is met een radarinstrument dat door het ijs heen kan ‘kijken’ de oceaan wellicht detecteren.”
Bill Nye was posed the question: why should we bother going to Mars when we haven't taken care of the problems on our own planet yet?
He gave a very thoughtful answer that spoke to the human sense of adventure and discovery.
GETTING TO MARS
Ever since Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk revealed his plans to make humankind an interplanetary species by getting to Mars, the world’s attention has been taken over by this fascination for the Red Planet. SpaceX, however, wasn’t the first to have plans for a mission to Mars. In fact, there have been such plans since the 1950s.
With all the attention Mars is getting, a concerned citizen, Sam, asked resident Science Guy Bill Nye: “Why are we trying to live on Mars and re-create Earth there by making an atmosphere and soil and water we can drink and such? Why can’t we take those ideas, that motivation and direct it at our own planet that we clearly need the help with? Why is it easier to start fresh on another planet than to get people talking about our own?”
THE SCIENCE GUY SAYS
Bill Nye found the question interesting and relevant. He admitted that getting to Mars and making it habitable isn’t going to be easy: “People, first of all, just don’t grasp the scale of it. It’s a planet. It’s a whole planet,” he said. He also reminded viewers that water, food, and air are non-existent, which would pose many problems.
Nye explained that taking care of our own planet and getting to Mars aren’t two exclusive goals. He credits our desire to visit the red planet to humanity’s sense of exploration, which has pushed us forward over the past centuries. His goal is to establish a scientific research base on Mars, much like our bases in Antarctica.
More than that, however, is how getting to Mars would change our world, especially, “If there’s something alive on Mars, and we could prove it,” Nye said, “it would probably change the world.”
“It would be astounding if we found something still alive there,” he emphasized. “If we make this discovery of life, it would not have been done by an individual. It would be done by a society [which] invested its intellect and treasure in this quest.” He closed by saying that finding life “would affect the way each and everyone of us feels about what it means to be a living thing in the cosmos; what it means to have this place in space.” Finding life on Mars would certainly make the universe less lonely. Thanks, Bill!
Wetenschappers: “Aliens gebruiken mogelijk gigantische radiozenders om door de kosmos te reizen”
Wetenschappers: “Aliens gebruiken mogelijk gigantische radiozenders om door de kosmos te reizen”
Twee wetenschappers van de Harvard-universiteit hebben verklaard dat mysterieuze radioflitsen uit verre sterrenstelsels mogelijk bewijs zijn voor aliens die door de kosmos reizen.
Snelle radioflitsen zijn extreem felle flitsen die bestaan uit radiogolven en slechts een duizendste van een seconde duren.
De eerste werd 10 jaar geleden ontdekt. Sindsdien zijn er in totaal 17 gedetecteerd met behulp van telescopen op aarde.
Duizenden
Wetenschappers denken dat iedere dag duizenden van dit soort radioflitsen de aarde passeren.
“Het leek erop dat de eenvoudigste verklaring was dat ze afkomstig zijn van sterren in de Melkweg,” vertelt Abraham ‘Avi’ Loeb aan de Huffington Post.
“Maar toen werd één van de snelle radioflitsen gelinkt aan een klein sterrenstelsel op ongeveer een miljard lichtjaar,” vervolgt hij.
Buitenaardse beschavingen
Dat betekent dat deze flitsen van de rand van het heelal komen en helderder zijn dan wat dan ook.
Loeb en collega Manasvi Lingam besloten te onderzoeken of snelle radioflitsen mogelijk het gevolg zijn van de activiteit van buitenaardse beschavingen.
“Omdat er veel meer sterrenstelsels zijn dan alleen de Melkweg, zou je verwachten dergelijke fenomenen vaker buiten de Melkweg te detecteren dan erbinnen,” aldus Lingam tegenover de krant.
Gigantische radiozenders
De twee wetenschappers speculeren dat snelle radioflitsen kunnen worden geproduceerd door gigantische radiozenders die andere beschavingen gebruiken om van het ene naar het andere sterrenstelsel te reizen.
Een door zonne-energie aangedreven radiozender ter grootte van een planeet zou genoeg energie opwekken om een interstellair ruimteschip aan te drijven, suggereren ze.
“We schatten dat een gemiddeld sterrenstelsel hooguit 10.000 van zulke beschavingen herbergt,” verklaart Lingam. “Waarschijnlijk valt het werkelijke aantal lager uit.”
Babystapjes
Loeb zit in de adviescommissie van het Starshot-project, dat erop gericht is een ruimteschip naar de ster Alpha Centauri te sturen.
Het idee is om krachtige lasers vanaf de aarde te richten op dunne zeilen die meer dan 1000 sondes bevatten.
Dat is niet hetzelfde als de radiogolven die mogelijk worden gebruikt door aliens, maar het verkennen van de ruimte gaat in babystapjes.
Kunstmatig
“Veel mensen denken de waarheid in pacht te hebben,” zegt Loeb. “Ze denken dat we speciaal zijn, dat er verder niets in de ruimte is.”
“We moeten ons niet laten leiden door vooroordelen. We moeten waarnemen,” vervolgt hij. “Als we iets ongewoons zien, moeten we rekening houden met de mogelijkheid dat het kunstmatig is.”
Witnesses of Melbourne high school UFO sighting speak out
Witnesses of Melbourne high school UFO sighting speak out
Aaron Langmaid, Herald Sun
HOVERING above a Melbourne high school, the sight of three spherical objects defied gravity and all belief.
For the first time in more than half a century, a panel of eye witnesses hope to shed light on the enduring Aussie mystery — and one of the world’s most baffling UFO cases.
Hundreds of people reported the bizarre scene as it played out above Westall High School, Clayton South on April 6, 1966. Authorities at the time warned locals not to discuss it and critics have since written it off.
But five decades on, those who saw the objects and a perfect circle of flattened grass left behind, remain convinced.
Joy Clarke, was among the students who ran from class and spotted three objects in the sky.
“It took a while for me to comprehend what I was actually looking at because I had never seen anything like that before,’’ she said.

The Year 8 student was one of the few to have her picture taken inside the circle of flattened grass that the object apparently left behind. It was burnt and destroyed by army officers the following day.
Amateur detective Shane Ryan, who led an investigation for the documentary Westall ‘66 said the bizarre incident had plagued the minds of those who saw it.
“We live in an odd society where there is interest in UFOs and the mysteries of life but when a person comes forward to talk about an experience often they find it hard to be listened to or believed,’’ Mr Ryan said.
“This was an important case on the world stage because it was a mass UFO sighting in broad daylight.’’
He said the objects were clearly identifiable and not what locals were used to seeing in the sky around Moorabin airport.
At least one landed and was on the ground for several minutes.
A panel of eye witnesses hope to shed light on the mystery
“Whatever it was — there was a very strong response from government to it,’’ Mr Ryan said.
He said police, ambulance and fire units all headed to the site. But civil defence and military units were also dispatched.
Air force personnel reportedly knocked on the door of the school science teacher days later, warning him that if he spoke about what he saw his “career in Victoria would be over’’.
Another student who was taken away from the scene in hysterics was never seen again.
And after decades of denial, last year one of the few surviving policemen who responded on that day admitted he had been at the scene but still refused to talk about what he saw.
“There was absolutely a cover up,’’ Mr Ryan said.
“The resolution of this story hinges on a death bed confession.’’
Mr Ryan will be guest speaker alongside the panel of witnesses assembled for the first time next month.

Canada Eyewitness Sees UFO Over Water during Storm,. Feb 2017, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: Feb 15, 2017 Location of sighting: Bay of Fundy, Main, Canada A very interesting MUFON case came in this week. About a UFO seen over the bay and during a lightning storm. The UFO was causing the lightning so it could recharge from it. Scott C. Waring Eyewitness states:
I was watching a fairly intense lightning storm roll into the mouth of the bay off the Atlantic,” the witness stated. “We were waiting for our bar-b-q to finish and I began to film the storm hoping to get some good footage of the lightning as I waited.The storm was still a good 20 minutes away, but the lightning was going straight down into the water almost everytime and I continued to film for about two minutes. I put my camera away,ate supper as the storm passed overhead, and thought nothing more of it until two or three days later when I was going through the video.I watched it normally and saw nothing, got to the end and hit pause during one of the lightning strikes.Took a screenshot for Facebook and continued to scroll backwards very slowly going from lightning strike to lightning strike and taking screenshots. As I got to the very first seconds of the video, during the double lightning bolt and bang, I could see a disc-like object the size of a semi-trailer flying out of the bay on an angle at an unimaginable speed across the sky through the double flash and up into the clouds with a bang and whirly wind tunnel echo sound. But with determination and brain surgeon fingers, I was able to get screenshots of it within that second.I have some unbelievable video and even more unbelievable pictures.I’ve spent almost eight months seeking help and getting nowhere. I pray you people take me seriously and show interest because this is real.
Viral Video Shows Crystal Clear UFOs Over Pyramids
Viral Video Shows Crystal Clear UFOs Over Pyramids
An amazing video of seemingly showing three crystal clear UFOs floating above ancient pyramids of Giza has made the rounds online. Uploaded to YouTube, the footage shows a crowd of tourists enjoying the incredible sight of the ancient world while the three strange, triangular aerial things hover above.
The footage can be considered as one of the clearest UFO sightings ever recorded on video.
Most UFO sighting recordings are either blurred or too shaky.
However, Youtube poster give any additional details about the video, but the description of the video states that it was recorded in April 2016 and the UFOs remained visible for four hours.
Section 51 2 website features the alleged UFO sighting video, but no further reference provided. It instead discusses the alleged ancient document Tulli Papyrus, which reveals that flying saucers, depicted as circles of fire, appeared above pyramids in around 1500 BC.
The article also touches the ancient astronaut conspiracy theory, which claims that our ancestors built the pyramids with the help of an advanced race of aliens thousands of years ago.
However, many viewers believe that the video is a deliberate hoax created using CGI technology.
Critics say that if this thing actually happened, then it would likely be the news for mainstream media all over the world and not only to one website.
Intelligent life forms may be able to travel across three reportedly habitable planets in a "Goldilocks zone" orbiting a newly discovered dwarf star, according to a Cornell University report published this week. The system of exoplanets, dubbed "Trappist-1" by NASA after the federal agency discovered the region in late February, includes seven exoplanets — and one of the most likely possibilities for extraterrestrial life.
The three exoplanets included in the region are within such a short distance of each other that it wouldn’t be unrealistic to assume aliens were capable of "interplanetary panspermia," Manasvi Lingam and Abraham Loeb, co-authors of the report, noted in their research. Panspermia is when the same life forms created somewhere else in the universe are able to initiate life on other planets.
Though entirely theoretical, the authors behind the research said Trappist-1 could provide the first-known capability of life traveling across planets in outer space. Aliens conducting interplanetary travel may not look anything like humans, though.
Harvard University researchers said the most likely life forms hopping across the three cosmos were tiny bacteria attaching themselves onto meteors covered in hydrogen and water. Those microorganisms may be able to go dormant for extended periods of time while performing interplanetary panspermia, though it remains unclear whether they'd actually be able to survive the journey from one exoplanet to the next included in Trappist-1.
The three exoplanets featured in the "Goldilocks zone" were named "E," "F" and "G," in consecutive order based on their distance to the dwarf star each orbits.
Cornell University researchers weren’t only convinced life forms existed in Trappist-1. They may have already traveled to each of the three exoplanets.
"It would not be surprising to find the same forms of life on all three habitable planets near Trappist-1," Loeb told New Scientist in an interview Monday. "Because these distances are so close, a lot more different kinds of species, microbial or otherwise, could migrate from one planet to another."
And now YouTube channel SecureTeam 10 believes crash sites and space craft wreckages that “cover” the moon’s surface are evidence that aliens really did exist there at some point.
The footage points to mysterious circular shapes that appear to be partially buried in the surface of the moon.
UFO hunter Tyler Glockner believes they are alien space ships.

UFO hunter claims there are 'mobile alien bases' on the moon
Using footage from fellow alien investigation channel Streetcap1, the video focuses on one “saucer” positioned on its own “in the middle of a very barren piece of land”.
“Could this be a rock or an asteroid?” Tyler asks.
“It could be that. But I think what Streetcap was pointing out was the almost perfect cylinder shape of this thing.
“If there were beings out there that had these advanced craft why do they seem to be crashing their ships all the time?"
YOUTUBE/SECURETEAM10
ALARMING: The video points out the disc shape and drag marks along the surface of the moon
He argues there may have been a huge war millions of years ago on our moon.
“At some point in the distance past there was some sort of war or cataclysm that caused these ruins and unknown debris to be littered across the moon.
“This is why the moon is so heavily bombarded with craters and many of these aren’t craters at all – but instead are the remnants of nuclear explosions,” Tyler says.
