NASA Says Saturn’s Moon Has “The Ingredients Necessary For a Habitable Environment”
NASA Says Saturn’s Moon Has “The Ingredients Necessary For a Habitable Environment”

NASA just released evidence that a liquid water ocean that could support life lies beneath the icy surface of Saturn’s moon Enceladus. The agency reports that the world has many of the “ingredients needed for a habitable environment.”
Thanks to Cassini, organic chemicals—carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur—which are the basic building blocks of life, were seen spraying forth from the “tiger stripe” cracks on the cold surface of the moon.
Additionally, in the paper published in Science, which comes from researchers on the Cassini mission, it was revealed that molecular hydrogen, which NASA notes, “could potentially provide a chemical energy source for life,” is pouring into the ocean on Enceladus via hydrothermal vents on the seafloor.
It has almost all of the ingredients you would need to support life as we know it.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Peter Girguis, a deep sea biologist at Harvard who is not associated with the research, noted the significance in relation to discovering microbial life: “For a microbiologist thinking about energy for microbes, hydrogen is like the gold coin of energy currency. If you had to have one thing, one chemical compound, coming out of a vent that would lead you to think there’s energy to support microbial life, hydrogen is at the top of that list.”
“Confirmation that the chemical energy for life exists within the ocean of a small moon of Saturn is an important milestone in our search for habitable worlds beyond Earth,” added Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in a NASA press release. “We now know that Enceladus has almost all of the ingredients you would need to support life as we know it on Earth,” she continued.
Water Means Life
To clarify, water, which supports and cradles life on Earth, is abundant in our solar system. As University of Michigan planetary scientist Sushil Atreya told Scientific American, water is necessary for life-as-we-know-it for a number of important reasons: “Liquid water acts as a solvent, as a medium and as a catalyst for certain types of proteins, and those are three main things that allow life to flourish.”
Indeed, everywhere that we find water on Earth, we find life—and enough water appears to be on this world, and in the proper conditions, that it seems likely that we will find alien life there.
“The way the jets react so responsively to changing stresses on Enceladus suggests they have their origins in a large body of liquid water,” Christophe Sotin co-author and Cassini team member said in the NASA release. “Liquid water was key to the development of life on Earth, so these discoveries whet the appetite to know whether life exists everywhere water is present” (pun, probably, intended).
“Although we can’t detect life, we’ve found that there’s a food source there for it. It would be like a candy store for microbes,” said Hunter Waite, lead author of the Cassini study.
In a statement, Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate at Headquarters in Washington, succinctly summarized the significance of the find: “This is the closest we’ve come, so far, to identifying a place with some of the ingredients needed for a habitable environment. These results demonstrate the interconnected nature of NASA’s science missions that are getting us closer to answering whether we are indeed alone or not.”

NASA: Saturn's Moon Enceladus Has All the Basic Ingredients for Life
Well, what are we waiting for?
DAVID NIELD
NASA scientists have found more evidence that Saturn's icy moon Enceladuscould support life: the presence of hydrogen molecules in huge geysers of water shooting up from the surface.
The discovery of this chemical energy source means Enceladus is currently the very best place to look for life outside of Earth, with conditions that could be just right for alien microbes to survive.
"This is the closest we've come, so far, to identifying a place with some of the ingredients needed for a habitable environment," said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate.
We've got the Cassini spacecraft to thank for the new findings, as the probe has been busy taking measurements around Saturn and Enceladus since 2004.
An analysis of the samples Cassini took two years ago, as it flew through the geysers of Enceladus, have now revealed these tell-tale hydrogen molecules.
The hydrogen strongly suggests that hydrothermal activity is going on in the ocean below the surface of Enceladus, and because some of the most basic lifeforms on Earth thrive in ocean vents like the ones Cassini has been flying over, the same type of life could exist on Saturn's moon.
"This doesn't tell us whether life is there or not," astronomer Jonathan Lunine, from the Cornell Centre for Astrophysics and Planetary Science, told Gizmodo.
"It just makes the case for the ocean being able to support life that much stronger."
NASA/JPL-Caltech
We've suspected for a while that water is being heated below the surface of Enceladus, but the presence of hydrogen just about confirms it: the reaction of certain minerals with hot rocks is the most likely explanation for the large amounts of hydrogen found by Cassini.
Meanwhile, the hydrogen discovery also makes it more likely that methane is being produced from carbon dioxide on the moon, a process known as methanogenesis.
The hydrogen and the methanogenesis could well provide a food source for microbes, experts think, in the same way it does on Earth.
In other words, Earth's microbes could probably live on Enceladus.
But, the hydrogen is so abundant that it might also mean there are no microbes around to eat it up, NASA said in its press conference today, or that microbes are there but only in a very small number.
For the time being we just don't know – but the ingredients for life are there, based on the research published today.
"The discovery of native molecular hydrogen [H2] completes the set of what I would call the 'basic' requirements for life as we know it: liquid water, organic molecules, minerals, and an accessible source of 'free' energy," Lunine explained to Gizmodo.
"The H2 discovery completes the case for going back to Enceladus to look for life."
At the same time, scientists working with the Hubble telescope say they've found more evidence that another of Jupiter's moons, Europa, is spurting out watery jets of its own, giving us yet another potential spot where life might develop.
Researchers have suggested Europa has geysers of its own before, but this latest evidence is more compelling. For the time being though, Enceladus remains the most promising place to look for life.
Sadly, we soon have to say goodbye to Cassini after all the fantastic work it's been doing in studying Saturn and its moons.
The spacecraft will crash into Saturn in September, after a job well done.

ROSWELL UFO: Truman's secret crash site debrief, his body double, and the 'cover-up'
ROSWELL UFO: Truman's secret crash site debrief, his body double, and the 'cover-up'
PRESIDENT Harry Truman visited the site of an alleged flying saucer crash in Roswell, New Mexico, to ensure that the "incident" was covered up from the world. it has shockingly been claimed.
William Sells (top left), Major Edwin Easley (bottom left) and President Truman (right).
UFO investigators are looking at claims that President Truman and his personal bodyguard secretly visited the scene in July 1947, and were promised by a leading military official that there would be no trace left of the crash.
The Roswell myth has been at the heart of the UFO scene since in July 1947 the military sensationally announced in a press release it had found the remains of a crashed flying saucer in the desert nearby.
But the following day it retracted the statement, saying it was in fact a damaged US Air Force air balloon.
Witnesses later came forward to say there had been alien bodies within the "crashedcraft", which along with the wreckage were then taken to the mysterious top-secret Area 51 military base in Nevada.
The conspiracy theories surrounding the events remain today.
The allegations were yesterday made to the US-based Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which keeps a global database of alleged UFO and alien sightings.
It carries out investigations into some of the reports it receives.
In the report to MUFON an unnamed source said: "My Uncle was personal bodyguard to Harry S Truman in 1947.
"They both went to Roswell at the insistence of President Truman in July 1947 after sneaking out of White House disguised as press.
"My uncle said they met a Major Easley at crash site.
"Major Easley promised the President that nothing from the crash would remain."
Express.co.uk discovered a man has made similar claims on Facebook.
William Sells, from Noblesville, Indiana, whose profile says he is a retired "specialist" at the National Security Agency (NSA), said his uncle Wayne Schell had been personal bodyguard to President Truman, and had told him in the 1960s about the secret operation, which involved the use of a "double" of President Truman.
They both went to Roswell at the insistence of President Truman in July 1947 after sneaking out of White House disguised as press.
Report to MUFON
Mr Sells says he also previously held a "top-secret SI crypto clearance from the NSA."
He posted: "Harry and him left the White House in disguise to the crash site after Truman saw debris at Andrews Air Force Base (in Prince George's County, Maryland).
"The secret service instituted Operation Doppelganger and provided Harry Truman's double to make sure the press was unaware of Harry's real location.
"At first I did not believe him (Mr Schell) until we opened his military footlocker in his bedroom after his death around 1969.
"In there were letters from FDR and Truman along with glossy photos of the Yalta Conference with Churchill, Stalin and FDR."
He said his uncle lived in Middletown, Indiana, and ran a dairy farm after his secret service work.
He added: "He told me that Roswell was extraterrestrial and that the military swept the site.
"They met a Major named Edward Easley at the site and he promised Truman that nothing would remain and nothing would be said."
Express.co.uk could find no other record of a Wayne Schell linked to President Truman.
It is well documented, and among UFO circles, that Major Edwin Easley was the provost marshal at the Roswell Army Air Field at the time of the alleged crash and that he was responsible for base security.
Conspiracy theorists claim that dead aliens were found in the wreckage of the alleged crashed flying saucer but they were secretly hidden at a US air force base.

Gaat de NASA vanavond de aankondiging van de eeuw doen?
Gaat de NASA vanavond de aankondiging van de eeuw doen?
De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA gaat om 20.00 uur Nederlandse tijd nieuwe bevindingen presenteren over oceaanwerelden, manen en planeten met ondergrondse oceanen, in ons zonnestelsel.
NASA zal nieuwe resultaten bespreken over oceaanwerelden in ons zonnestelsel van het ruimtevaartuig Cassini en de Hubble-ruimtetelescoop.
De nieuwe ontdekkingen helpen bij de toekomstige verkenningen, inclusief NASA’s aanstaande missie Europa Clipper, die in 2020 gelanceerd moet worden, en de verdere zoektocht naar leven buiten de aarde.
Beste kans
Er wordt druk gespeculeerd over wat de ontdekking of ontdekkingen zouden kunnen zijn. Bekend is dat Jupitermaan Europa één van de meest waarschijnlijke plekken is om buitenaards leven te vinden.
Als op die maan vloeibaar water aanwezig is, is de kans groot dat er leven is. Het oppervlak van de maan bestaat uit ijs, maar onder het ijs vermoedt men een vloeibare oceaan van water.
“Europa is de beste kans op buitenaards leven in ons zonnestelsel,” aldus professor Britney Schmidt van het Georgia Institute of Technology, die meewerkt aan Europa Clipper.
Aankondiging van de eeuw
Er wordt ook gedacht dat er leven mogelijk is op Mars, maar de kans bestaat dat de rode planeet alleen in het verleden bewoonbaar is geweest.
“De vraag is of we een planeet willen bestuderen die misschien ooit bewoonbaar was of iets willen bestuderen wat op dit moment bewoond kan zijn,” aldus Schmidt.
Wie weet gaat de NASA vanavond de aankondiging van de eeuw doen met bewijs dat er buiten de aarde leven bestaat.
De Iztaccíhuatl of Ixtaccíhuatl is een actieve vulkaan in de Mexicaanse deelstaten Mexico en Puebla. De Ixtaccíhuatl is 5286 meter hoog, hoewel satellietmetingen aangeven dat zij in werkelijkheid 5230 meter hoog is. Het is het derde hoogste punt van Mexico, na de Piek van Orizaba en de Popocatépetl, waarmee zij een dubbelvulkaan vormt.
De Ixtaccíhuatl bestaat uit vier pieken en wordt van de Popocatépetl gescheiden door de Pas van Cortés. Wanneer de vulkaan vanuit het oosten of westen wordt gezien, toont de Ixtaccíhuatl een sterke vergelijkenis met een slapende vrouw. De naam Ixtaccíhuatl betekent dan ook 'witte vrouw' in het Nahuatl. In de Azteekse mythologie was Ixtaccíhuatl een prinses die verliefd was op de krijger Popocatépetl.
Haar vader beloofde dat zij hem mocht huwen wanneer hij terug zou zijn van een veldtocht in Oaxaca. Hij ging ervan uit dat Popocatépetl toch niet levend terug zou keren, dus vertelde zijn dochter dat hij was overleden. Deze stierf daarna van verdriet. Later bleek dat Popocatépetl nog wel in leven was. Toen deze hoorde van de dood van zijn geliefde stierf hij ook van verdriet. De goden gaven hun vervolgens een kleed van sneeuw en veranderde ze in de twee vulkanen.
In de volgende video zie je na ongeveer 20 seconden een soort rond licht verschijnen in de hemel dat langzaam afdaalt richting krater van de vulkaan.
Naarmate het dichterbij komt, wordt het licht opeens veel groter en feller. Dan, net voordat het in de mond van de krater verdwijnt, wordt het licht zwakker.
Net zoals bij die andere vulkanen verschijnt ook bij deze een UFO die lijkt te verdwijnen in de krater.
Ook eind vorig jaar, in november, werd er via de webcam een prachtige UFO vastgelegd boven de Ixtaccíhuatl vulkaan.
Wie of wat het zijn weten we niet, maar wel dat er keer op keer bijzondere objecten worden waargenomen bij de Mexicaanse vulkanen waarvan de wereld doet alsof ze niet bestaan.
De volgende opname is een jaar daarvoor gemaakt, op 1 december 2015, en dit keer niet door een webcam. Het is een prachtige video, gemaakt van grote afstand, net voor zonsopgang, waarbij je minutenlang vreemde lichtgevende objecten rond de krater van de vulkaan ziet hangen.
Toch wel bijzonder dat wij in een wereld leven waar zoveel dingen voorkomen die niet bestaan.
Flying lanterns like these ones caused concern in the town of Duck Lake, Sask. this weekend.
(Lee Jin-man/The Associated Press)
A memorial service in small-town Saskatchewan caused a brief moment of panic this weekend as flying lanterns were mistaken for everything from missiles to UFOs.
On Sunday night, Brenda Gaudry was driving through Duck Lake, Sask. when she and her husband noticed five or six bright lights moving across the night sky.
"At first, I thought it was really cool," she said. "Then I started to think about all the things going on with Donald Trump and shooting missiles and all these things that are going on in the world."
As soon as she got home, she uploaded a video she took to Facebook to ask the community if they had seen the lights in the sky. The video unexpectedly turned viral. On Wednesday afternoon, it had been watched 12,000 times.
"I didn't even know it had gone that crazy," she said. "All of a sudden, it was in the thousands, and it just keeps going."
Gaudry wasn't the only one surprised by the lights. Apparently one young boy walking down the street saw them and ran home, thinking there was a nuclear war.
Eventually, Gaudry was approached by the organizers of a memorial service, who told her the flying lanterns had been released to commemorate the one-year anniversary of a young man's death.
She said she didn't know about the service and didn't mean to anger the family.
"Some people were very angry," she said. "They thought I was trying to make fun of these lanterns. But I didn't know what it was."
Meanwhile, things have started to calm down in Duck Lake, located 85 kilometres northeast of Saskatoon.
"I'm so happy and elated that that's what it was," she said. "And not what I feared it was."

UFO museum opens in Runcorn ahead of potential 'Alien Festival'
UFO museum opens in Runcorn ahead of potential 'Alien Festival'
Artist inspired by tale of 'UFO contactee from Runcorn' teams up with composer and others to lay on archives and music
BYOLIVER CLAY
A pop-up display celebrating the world of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO) is on show in Runcorn for two weeks.
The Flying Saucer Museum is on from April 10-25 in Runcorn Shopping Centre
Chiz Turnross, the organiser behind the event, is hoping to raise awareness and test the water for a potential alien festival later in the year.
The pop-up museum was inspired by the 60th anniversary of Europe’s first purported UFO contactee, James Cooke, of Runcorn, who claimed to have encountered a spaceship on Runcorn Hill in September 1957 and also to have been taken to the planet Zomdic by his extraterrestrial visitors.
Chiz, who is also an artist, came across the story while researching Cheshire folklore.
He uncovered a Runcorn Weekly News article stored in microfiche format at Runcorn Library with the headline ‘Runcorn flying saucer anticipates red moon’ in reference to the blood moon that month.
UFO SPOTTED IN THE SKIES OVER LIVERPOOL
The report related the events of James Cooke’s alleged rendezvous with Zomdic.
Chiz has collaborated with curator Jane Anderson, of Models For Practice, composer Lucy Pankhurst and family, friends and residents to produce a miniature archive of UFO-related material, workshops and performances, and to gather views and ideas from the public on the alien festival, while researching international collaborators for what he said would be the UK’s first ‘Alien Festival’.
Chiz said: “At first I was researching blind until I hit upon the idea of an Alien Festival for Runcorn and Halton, a heritage project with a difference. Beyond the James Cooke story, Halton appears to be the prime UK window for UFO activity.”
He added: “The fortnight-long mission will culminate in a specially composed alien music performance in the former Mecca Bingo hall in Runcorn Shopping City centre, which we hope will consolidate our research and celebrate our findings.”

Numerous UFO sightings reported in County Derry over the past few years
Numerous UFO sightings reported in County Derry over the past few years
Reports of UFOs across Co Derry in recent years include witnessing strange red, blue and white lights in the sky, a potential sighting of Santa on Christmas Day and a person who claimed they were abducted by aliens in Magherafelt.
Reports from Limavady, Ballykelly, Claudy and Bellaghy are some of the sightings that have been submitted to several UFO sighting websites.
A report from Magherafelt was submitted to ufo-hunters.com in early April 1998. It states that a group of people were walking through a wooded area when they noticed a light in the sky.
“We looked up and saw the ship in the sky. It changed from an oval shape to a disc shape before our eyes. There was a bright flash of light and I found myself in the spacecraft,” the report read.
“I noticed a few oval shaped heads surrounding me. I was momentarily stunned and couldn’t move. When I woke up I was on a cold bench. The 'beings' were operating on me and I have the scars to prove it.”
The person then said that the group was returned to the spot where they left, but arrived three hours before they had left. The person who made the reports said they still “have flashbacks to this day.”
A report made to ufoinfo.com by three witnesses in Limavady says that they spotted “a very bright fiery object in the sky” just after Christmas Dinner in 2008.
“My first impressions where that it was a plane on fire because of the intense orangey red light emanating from the object,” the report read.
“The fieryness of the object changed into three circular disks in a triangular formation as it moved away.”
“My grandson reckoned it was Santa Claus going home after a busy night!!!”
There were also two separate reports of three orange spheres flying in a line over Limavady on the same day in February 2008.
A couple driving between Portglenone and Bellaghy in December 2011 reported seeing a flashing blue light in the sky, which “shot across just above the horizon & stopped at a position of 9 o'clock in relation to the car.”
“It had stopped flashing at this stage and stayed completely still for approx two seconds. It then shot across to a positon of 7 o'clock, stayed still for approx one second then disappeared.”
A student living in Ballykelly said that they saw four crafts in the sky in September 2013, one of which was “the shape of a traffic cone” and then saw another craft they described as “the shape of a modern set of bathroom scales or something, oval, and curved in the middle.”
He said that he had a feeling of “peace and a sort of inner understanding” as he watched the objects, but later became afraid and went inside.
“I did this as although I have quite a big interest in UFOs and extra-terrestrials, at that time I did not want to be abducted.”
A report from Portstewart in March 2016 speaks of a silent moving light in the sky, which had flashing red, blue and white lights, while an October 2010 report from Coleraine mentions an orange light and an oblong object “with four wings in the shape of bent arms (crablike)” that suddenly shot up into the sky.
Chris McMurray, Chairperson of the Northern Ireland UFO Society said that reports of UFOs in the north appear to be becoming more frequent. However, he said that many reports can be easily explained as sightings of Chinese lanterns, satellites, aircraft or even planets, particularly Venus.
“The two biggest headaches for UFO researchers and investigators are Chinese lanterns and more recently, drones. Drones can be bright and seem silent at a distance at night and appear to pull off impossible manoeuvres, of which can't be attributed to any conventional manned aircraft,” he said.
Mr McMurray added that there were cases that could not be explained and that they tend to occur at “sites of historical significance.”
“A lot of ancient sites tend to be built on or near places where natural energy produced by the earth is significantly stronger than elsewhere. These are called primary nodal points, and structures such as the great pyramids in Egypt, Stonehenge in England and even military establishments are reported to be near them,” he said.
He said that he was “sceptical” of the report of an abduction in Magherafelt and said that such a case “would always merit a one to one interview with the abductee to establish if they're fabricating their story or not.”
“Demonologists would also have an interest here as they tend to believe that demonic entities are behind hallucinations which are interpreted as alien abductions,” he said.

Triangle UFO hovers low over rural Pennsylvania
Triangle UFO hovers low over rural Pennsylvania
A Pennsylvania witness at Lancaster County reported watching a nearly 100-foot-long, triangle-shaped object hovering at the tree top level, according to testimony in Case 82286 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
Witness illustration of the object.

The witness was driving along back roads between 8 and 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, February 22, 2017, when the incident began.
“Was at a stoplight when something caught my eye,” the witness stated.“I glanced over and noticed a line of bright lights. Didn’t think much of it and looked away. I double took, however, and when I looked back, they were in a triangle formation.”
The witness was unsure what the object was.
“I went through everything in my head. It was not a plane. There were no blinking lights, plus it was too low to the field to be a plane. I thought it might be a drone, but with it being so low it would’ve been a very, very, big drone. Nothing was blinking or illuminating off of it. There were no beams or anything like that.”
The witness was driving in rural Lancaster County, PA, when the object was seen on February 22, 2017.

The object then began to move.
“After I saw it, it moved again – not lightning fast, but quickly to a third point in the field and hovered again for a few seconds. At this point I realize the light had turned green, and I begin to drive away. But interested in trying to figure out what I saw. I looked back and slowed down and I found nothing there, nothing in the sky. There was nothing up higher. There’s nothing in the field. It was gone. There was one very bright light at the top and three, maybe four, dimmer lights coming out of it in a triangle formation.”
The triangle-shaped object was first seen hovering at the tree top level. Pictured: Lancaster County, PA.

UFO Communicates To Passenger On Delta Flight 43 to Atlanta - UFO Raw Footage, UFO Sighting News.
UFO Communicates To Passenger On Delta Flight 43 to Atlanta - UFO Raw Footage, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Feb 23, 2017, but reported recently Location of sighting: Between JFK airport and Atlanta, USA
This is a interesting report of a person on a flight who recorded a UFO disk with their iphone. Sometimes, like this instance, you have only 3-10 seconds to catch the UFO. Those are stressful seconds...do or do not record? The answer is always to try to record. This is just a few seconds of a disk...that communicated telepathically to this woman on board...whom they may have been watching through the window. If only a few seconds of communication...its still a miracle in itself. Its a handshake to them. A beginning. She may be important to them. Remember, UFOs travel faster than the speed of light, which allows time travel to happen. Aliens know the future and the past. Thus, the person they said hello too may be of very important significance in the future. Scott C. Waring
Eyewitness states:
Atlanta, Georgia - 02-23-17 February 23: On Delta flight 43 traveling from JFK to Atlanta around 6:30 PM. I suddenly felt compelled to look out my window for some strange reason almost as if I was prompted. I then noticed a faint object in the distance that I really had to focus on. I waited to see if it was air traffic from another flight, but the object appeared completely different from any airplane, jet, zeppelin, etc. It seemed as if it were a few miles away, but strange enough to keep my attention. It stayed consistent in motion for a few moments, but the longer I focused my attention the more it seemed to change position. It was moving left to right, or suddenly blinking in and out view. It is very difficult to describe what I saw exactly, but it didn't seem like anything I could really wrap my mind around. I took my iPhone out which came out to be pretty low in quality, but I had my boyfriend enhance the footage by slowing it down/increasing the scale/reducing noise/adding contrast. I have the original footage upon request, but as you can see, the object really emerged once we enhanced the original footage.
UFOs Over Los Angeles Light Up Sky On March 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
UFOs Over Los Angeles Light Up Sky On March 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: March 2017
Location of sighting: Los Angeles, California, USA Here is a video reported this week by UFO Casebook of Youtube. It shows several glowing disks in the sky and a crowd of people staring at them in wonder. UFOs over LA are no strangers, back in Feb 25, 1942 my mother (East LA is my home) told me she witnessed the Battle of Los Angeles...several very large metallic disk of LA during WWII, which the military shot at tens of thousands of rounds, and all the while the UFOs passed over from the ocean slowly, in no hurry to leave, and unharmed in any way. You see, its an easy way to send a message to the government of America...that they cannot be harmed and don't care if humans know about them or not. The US gov doesn't want the public to know yet.

Report states:
Los Angeles, California - March, 2017 - Submitted by former MUFON Staff Photoanalyst, Jeffrey Sainio, on behalf of the videographer, whose name/number is known to me. Video was submitted through KUFOS member Jong han Seo to me. Video shows 2 disk or sphere-shaped object apparently ascending. One object disappears (except for 1 light which is apparent for a few more frames, and then apparently moves to the lower right. Video 1 is the original submitted video. Video 2 is a brightened version of the above. Video 3_marked.mp4 has a tiny light marked in frames where it is visible, which may be the 'disappeared' object moving. Video 4 is a slow-mo enhancement of Video 2
Audio shows children talking and possibly a baby. Suggest the videographer be interviewed by a local FI. Videographer has agreed to be interviewed. Time and number of witnesses is actually unknown.
«Prétendre que nous sommes seuls dans l’univers est une absurdité totale»
«Prétendre que nous sommes seuls dans l’univers est une absurdité totale»
Jean.-Marie Potiez.
À la faveur d’un nouveau livre, Jean-Claude Bourret fait le point sur 40 années de découvertes et d’hypothèses scientifiques pour faire émerger la vérité sur le phénomène ovni.
Le journaliste Jean-Claude Bourret (75 ans) et un ancien directeur de recherche au CNRS, Jean-Pierre Petit, relancent la question des univers parallèles…
Quelle est cette "extraordinaire" découverte que vous annoncez dans votre livre ?
L’ouvrage est constitué de deux parties. La première s’adresse au grand public, elle est accessible à tous. La seconde est plutôt réservée aux scientifiques de haut niveau. Jean-Pierre Petit nous expose le résultat de ses 40 années de recherches. Il a trouvé une formule mathématique révolutionnaire qui, si elle est avérée, devrait lui valoir un prix Nobel. Cette formule prouve qu’il existe un autre univers à côté du nôtre. Tandis que nous sommes dans un univers "positif", il existerait un univers "négatif" dans lequel la vitesse de la lumière est différente, c’est-à-dire plus de 300.000 kilomètres par seconde. Ainsi, des civilisations extraterrestres utiliseraient les lois physiques de leur univers pour rejoindre le nôtre et nous observer depuis des millénaires. Les calculs et hypothèses de Jean-Pierre Petit ont été publiés dans des revues scientifiques de haut niveau.
On a toutefois du mal à le suivre lorsqu’il dit que ses recherches ont été inspirées par de mystérieuses lettres émanant de gens qui prétendent être des extraterrestres !
Ça paraît fou parce qu’on ne connaît pas le dossier, donc on a tendance à prendre Petit pour un illuminé. Il m’a montré certaines de ces lettres "anonymes" qui lui ont permis de progresser et de transcender la formule de la relativité d’Einstein. Au début, il croyait à un canular. Mais quand il a vérifié ces formules et qu’il a constaté que ça marchait parfaitement, il a fait des simulations sur ordinateur qui permettent de faire un bond en avant considérable sur la compréhension de la constitution des galaxies. Il faut ajouter qu’aucun scientifique n’a contesté le travail de Jean-Pierre.
À votre avis, d’où viennent ces lettres ?
Personnellement, j’ai toujours considéré que Jean-Pierre Petit avait eu accès à une connaissance initiatique qui lui avait été transmise. Un polytechnicien de haut niveau, qui travaillait pour le Premier ministre, m’avait dit être au courant et que, même si ça paraît invraisemblable, les résultats annoncés par Petit étaient scientifiquement recevables. Selon lui, ça pouvait venir des services secrets soviétiques qui, faute de temps et de budget, les transmettaient à des scientifiques très pointus pour faire avancer les recherches. Jean-Pierre ne cache pas que son obstination à travailler sur les ovnis lui a coûté sa carrière !
Jean-Pierre Petit.
Pourquoi le phénomène ovni dérange-t-il autant ?
J’ai mis longtemps à le comprendre. En fait, les scientifiques sont très hostiles parce que, face aux ovnis, ils perdent leur statut de personnalités les plus cultivées et les plus intelligentes de la planète Terre. Quand le "professeur Duchemoll" est confronté à la vie extraterrestre, il se rend compte qu’il est comme un singe par rapport à un prix Nobel. Prétendre que nous sommes seuls dans l’univers est une absurdité totale.
Pensez-vous que la découverte récente de nouvelles exoplanètes pourrait faire changer d’avis les scientifiques ?
Espérons-le ! En tout cas, il faut rendre hommages aux Belges qui font faire des bonds en avant considérables à la connaissance scientifique de l’univers. Qui a imaginé le Big Bang ? C’est le chanoine belge Georges Lemaître. Qui vient de découvrir qu’il y avait une étoile avec neuf planètes, dont trois "habitables", qui tournent autour d’un soleil ? C’est le Liégeois Michael Gillon et son équipe. Il y a chez vous un creuset impressionnant de génies scientifiques !
À votre avis, quelles seraient les conséquences si on révélait l’existence d’extraterrestres ?
Elles seraient immenses car ça remettrait tout en cause. Nos connaissances, les maladies et tout notre système seraient détruits par les avances technologiques et philosophiques d’une civilisation extraterrestre qui serait forcément bien supérieure à la nôtre. Sans parler de la remise en cause de toutes les religions. C’est une supposition, mais imaginez qu’ils nous disent : « Sur la planète Terre, vous vous tuez entre musulmans, juifs, chrétiens, protestants et hindous en disant "C’est mon Dieu qui est le meilleur !" Maintenant, je vais vous dire que Dieu n’existe pas, et voilà comment l’univers a été créé ! » À ce moment-là, toutes les religions s’effondreraient. À ce propos, l’Italien Mauro Biglino, traducteur officiel pour le Vatican, va très loin puisqu’il remet en cause les fondements même de la religion en affirmant que la Bible évoque les véritables créateurs de l’espèce humaine, c’est-à-dire une race extraterrestre.
Dans votre livre, vous donnez tous les détails pour fabriquer un détecteur d’ovnis ("Ufo-catch")…
C’est l’autre point important du livre. On en a assez de voir que les États nous cachent les observations d’ovnis depuis 40 ans. Donc, on va se prendre en main en construisant ce système qui ne coûte pas cher (entre 100 et 160 euros). Avec les bénéfices du livre, qui sont intégralement reversés à l’association de Jean-Pierre Petit, nous ferons fabriquer une série qu’on vendra au prix coûtant, pour que chacun puisse mettre une caméra sur son toit ou son balcon. Chacun pourra dialoguer à travers un forum et échanger ses données. Vous savez, je dis aux gens : « Apprenez à vos enfants à regarder les étoiles. On ne peut pas continuer à vivre sur cette petite planète Terre comme si on était seul dans l’univers. » Il faut apprendre à nos enfants qu’il y a des milliards de civilisations et qu’elles sont beaucoup plus avancées que la nôtre.
Diriez-vous comme Fox Muller, dans la série "X-Files", que « la vérité est ailleurs » ?
Non, la vérité est universelle. Mais il faut ouvrir la bonne porte pour avoir sa lumière !
Kwallen zouden de eerste vorm van dierlijk leven op aarde zijn geweest. Dat ontdekten Amerikaanse onderzoekers. De nieuwe theorie weerlegt voorgaand onderzoek dat de spons als de oudste tak in het dierenrijk zag.
"De truc is om de genensequenties van verschillende organismen te vergelijken om zo uit te zoeken welke organismen het meest verwant zijn"
Professor Atonis Rokas
Een nieuwe genetische analyse van onderzoekers aan de Vanderbilt- en Wisconsin-Madison-universiteiten claimt dat kwallen de eerste vorm van dierlijk leven op onze planeet waren. Die bewering werd voordien sterk gecontesteerd door aanhangers van de sponstheorie, die dat simpele organisme als ultieme voorouder bestempelden.
Het onderzoek benaderde de theorie vanuit een compleet andere invalshoek om de discussie voor eens en voor altijd te beslechten. Terwijl wetenschappers voordien de stamboom van de dieren probeerden reconstrueren op basis van bestaande genetische data, focusten zij nu op de genen die de organismen allemaal deelden.
"De truc is om de genensequenties van verschillende organismen te vergelijken om zo uit te zoeken welke organismen het meest verwant zijn", aldus professor Antonis Rokas van Vanderbilt.
Baanbrekend
De analyse resulteerde in een zogenaamd "fylogenetisch signaal" dat de ribkwallen ontegensprekelijk aanduidde als eerste leven. De onderzoekers gebruikten diezelfde fylogenetische techniek ook om te achterhalen of krokodillen het meest verwant zijn aan vogels of schildpadden. Daaruit bleek dat schildpadden een zustersoort waren en vogels eerder dichte neven.
De onderzoekers benadrukten wel dat niet alle onenigheid hiermee zou wegebben. Eén eigenwijs gen kan genoeg zijn om de conclusie helemaal te doen keren van de ene soort naar de andere. Evolutie zou dan nagenoeg geen sporen in de genen achterlaten. Al gelooft professor Rokas dat de aanpak een baanbrekende impact zal hebben op de evolutiebiologie.
NASA zal morgen, donderdag, nieuwe bevindingen presenteren over de zogenaamde oceaanwerelden - manen en planeten met ondergrondse oceanen - in ons zonnestelsel. Kennis over zulke werelden kan de zoektocht naar buitenaards leven een nieuwe wending geven.
De vraag is: willen we een planeet bestuderen die misschien ooit bewoonbaar was of willen we iets bestuderen dat op dit eigenste moment bewoond kan zijn?
Britney Schmidt
Wetenschappers verzamelden de resultaten met behulp van de Hubble-ruimtetelescoop en ruimtesonde Cassini. Die draait reeds sinds 2004 mee in de baan van planeet Saturnus. De missie van het ruimtetuig loopt dit jaar ten einde.
De Aarde wordt beschouwd als een oceaanwereld omdat water de meerderheid van de aardoppervlakte bedekt. Andere gelijkaardige omgevingen in ons zonnestelsel zijn de manen van Jupiter, Saturnus en Neptunus, alsook de dwergplaneet Pluto. Venus en Mars zouden ooit ook oceanen gehad hebben, maar door het broeikaseffect en hun kwetsbare atmosfeer verloren ze die.
Zoute oceaan NASA wil de waterbronnen in ons heelal nog aan verder uitgebreid onderzoek onderwerpen met de Europa Clipper-missie. Het ruimteagentschap wil zich daarbij vooral richten op Jupiters maan 'Europa'. Met haar zoute oceaan, die een tweemaal zo groot volume beslaat als de oceanen op aarde, herbergt ze immers nog een mogelijkheid op buitenaards leven.
"Europa is de beste kans op buitenaards leven naast de Aarde in ons zonnestelsel", zegt Britney Schmidt, assistent-professor aan Georgia Institute of Technology. Schmidt is een van de bezielers van de Europa-missie. De Europa Clipper zal na 2020 gelanceerd worden. Het zal vanaf dan nog enkele jaren duren vooraleer het zijn eindbestemming bereikt.
Omdat leven op onze buurplaneet Mars al jaren tot de verbeelding spreekt, kon Jupiters maan het grote publiek niet fascineren. Er zijn wel argumenten in het voordeel van potentieel leven op Mars, maar de kans bestaat dat deze planeet enkel in het verleden bewoonbaar was. Toen waren het klimaat en de atmosfeer van de Rode Planeet een stuk aangenamer. "De vraag is: willen we een planeet bestuderen die misschien ooit bewoonbaar was of willen we iets bestuderen dat op dit eigenste moment bewoond kan zijn?", vraagt Schmidt zich terecht af.
Last year, Fox brought back The X-Files for a six-episode run that left fans on a big cliffhanger with no resolution in sight. And while we’re still waiting for word about a fresh order of new episodes, series stars David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are already set to reprise their roles as Fox Mulder and Dana Scully in The X-Files: Cold Cases, a new audio drama from Audible.
The X-Files: Cold Cases is based on The X-Files: Season 10 comic book series by writer Joe Harris and artist Michael Walsh. That comic was produced before Fox commissioned the revival series, so it is out-of-continuity with the television show despite input from X-Files creator Chris Carter. For the new audio version, Dirk Maggs (The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) adapted Harris and Walsh’s initial storyline, which finds Mulder and Scully forced out of hiding when their former associates are targeted by an enigmatic group.
In a newly released video from Audible, Duchovny and Anderson teased their returns, but they aren’t the only cast members coming back. Mitch Pileggi will once again play Walter Skinner, alongside William B. Davis as the Cigarette Smoking Man, and Bruce Harwood, Tom Braidwood, and Dean Haglund reprising their roles as the Lone Gunmen.
If Audible continues to adapt the comic book storyline beyond the initial Cold Cases, then several other X-Files characters could potentially return as well. It’s an exciting possibility for fans of the series, and we’d love to see that happen!
Audible will release The X-Files: Cold Cases on July 18.
Alien interaction: “The chances are pretty good for contact to take place,” says Dr Eamonn Ansbro ahead of his Trinity College Dublin public lecture on Monday night.
For the last 17 years since setting up his Kingsland Observatory outside Boyle, Co Roscommon, Eamonn Ansbro has been looking for extraterrestrial life.
It’s a pursuit that is easily to mock. Aliens of the popular imagination are green, with pointy heads and fly around in saucers. Their human pursuers are often similarly ridiculed.
Yet, in the last few years the discovery of thousands of exoplanets – planets around other stars – has made the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) a serious proposition.
The problem is that we do not know whether or not extraterrestrial intelligence exists and even if it does we do not know how they are communicating.
The biggest barrier is the distances involved. Even at the speed of light (250,000km a second), a message sent to the nearest star, Alpha Centauri, would take nine years to get there and back.
Dr Ansbro is advocating faster-than-the-speed-of-light communication, a potential discovery which would overturn the laws of physics defined by Albert Einstein.
“It is possible,” he says, “There have been theoretical models regarding this. There has been work done in the last five or six years to indicate that this is possible. Currently you are constrained by the speed of light.”
Extraterrestrial intelligence
He speculates that while humans use 4D technology (ie radio communication), he believes extraterrestrial intelligence may be using something more advanced which is called quantum superluminal communications (QSC) or 5D. To borrow an analogy, human beings may be on AM while aliens may be on FM.
Dr Ansbro admits there is no certainty there is extraterrestrial intelligence. “The science of SETI is still on the fringe with astrobiology [the notion of extraterrestrial life],” he says.
“We have no history behind us similar to say any of the other sciences and we are going on a number of assumptions. It’s a really high-risk project.
But absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Mankind has only very recently had the tools to even begin the search. New telescopes are being developed that will look for the tell-tale carbon signatures of life in the atmosphere of exoplanets.
At a lecture on Monday hosted by Astronomy Ireland, Dr Ansbro will explain the latest thinking on the possible nature of extraterrestrial life.
“The chances are pretty good for contact to take place,” he says. “The ultimate test will come from the exploration of extraterrestrial biospheres.
“ In what to us will be extreme planets, eg having a global ocean a hundred kilometres deep or much larger rocky planets than Earth with extreme gravity, our extrapolations will be tentative, but we can nonetheless envisage life in a range of habitats considerably wider than what we know on Earth.”
Dr Ansbro’s Astronomy Ireland public lecture takes place in Trinity College Dublin, Fitzgerald Building, at 8pm. Tickets are €10 with concessions at €5.
Ben was driving to work from his home on Hooe Road when he spotted something in the air.
Recalling the strange turn of events, he said: "I drove straight back home to get my camera, then I went to the highest point in Plymstock to take the pictures, where the big cross on the hill is.
"I missed the meteor coming through the atmosphere, but I saw the sparks coming down, travelling really fast."

Meteors: The facts
A meteoroid is a small particle from an asteroid or comet orbiting the sun. That's different from a meteor - which is a meteoroid burning up in the Earth's atmosphere – known as a shooting star. Finally, a meteorite is a meteor that survives its passage hit the Earth's surface.
They are all different from asteroids or comets which have orbits around the sun that bring them close to the earth. An asteroid is a relatively small, inactive body, composed of rock, carbon or metal, which is orbiting the sun. Whereas a comet is a A relatively small object composed of dirt and ice.
Comets are characterised by dust and gas tails when in proximity to the sun.
Far from the sun it is difficult to distinguish an asteroid from a comet.
NASA will hold a press conference on Thursday, starting at 2 PM ET, at which it will discuss new discoveries related to ocean worlds found within our solar system. The fresh findings come from the Cassini spacecraft, which was launched in 1997 and arrived at its destination orbiting Saturn in 2004, and the Hubble Space Telescope.
The briefing includes “new discoveries” that “will help inform future ocean world exploration,” according to NASA’s press release. The results of the findings will help with future efforts to locate life outside of Earth – but we should stress here that there’s essentially zero chance this announcement will be at all about the discovery of alien life, as a way of heading off the recurrent frenzy of hype before it happens.
NASA will carry the briefing live, and if you’re lazy you can also just leave this browser tab open since it’ll appear in the live stream embedded below:
That’s 2 PM ET (11 AM PT) on Thursday, April 13. It’s not going to be aliens, but it’ll definitely be interesting, especially if you’re interested in the ongoing search for extraterrestrial life.
