UFO Comes Within 100 Meters Of Space Station, NASA Is Silent On It, April 28, 2017, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: April 28, 2017
Location of sighting: ISS, Space Station
A glowing multi colored UFO showed up on live space station camera this week and we were fortunate to have Streetcap1 catch it for us. The UFO changes colors and is round, but is so bright its impossible to see any detail on it except its outer edges. The UFO is about 75-100 meters off side of the space station, clearly coming so close it must have been seen by the astronauts through their windows, not to mention the station radar.
I got up early this morning to get the full footage from the 5 hour archive to make sure that the 'live capture' I uploaded last night was legitimate. It was. Here is a link to the live capture video.
Unidentified Transparent Cylinder Captured On Live NASA Feed
Unidentified Transparent Cylinder Captured On Live NASA Feed
A mysterious object appears on NASA’s live video feed flying past the International Space Station (ISS). Many UFO enthusiasts believe it is an alien cylinder.
The item suddenly appears out the window of the ISS and gets closer before it fades away. Some conspiracy theorists believe that the UFO is partially cloaked because it seems to appear transparent. They say that the object in question could have been alien stealth technology.
They explain that alien UFO usually hides in the deep blackness of spaces and blend into the environment to be safer from other alien species that may be hostile.
The object that moves towards the space station appears to be a white oblong shape as it emerges out of the darkness.
Others are not convinced that the footage shows evidence of an alien UFO. They say that nothing past anything because the reason for such thing to appear is the light on the lens.
Some say that to conclude that it is a UFO is nonsense because the cameras on the ISS don’t produce images or videos that are blurred and out of focus.
Australian Witness at Eungella Spots, Photographs and Videotapes Cylinder UFO
Australian Witness at Eungella Spots, Photographs and Videotapes Cylinder UFO
A man in Eungella, Australia recorded on video a cylinder UFO moving about 500 feet in the sky without a noticeable sound. The witness reported the UFO sighting to Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which filed as Case 82639 in its witness reporting database.
The strange incident took place when the witness, his wife, and son was outside at 6:50 early in the morning on March 14, 2017.
According to the report, the witness’ son first saw what he thought the moon. When the couple looked up, they were surprised to see a white, cylindrical or rectangular object over the clouds and flying from south to north at incredible speed.
The witness admitted that the wind was blowing in the same direction of the UFO, but the thing did not look like a balloon to the witnesses, as it did appear solid, reflective structure.
The reporting witness quickly went inside their house, grabbed his wife’s tablet, turned its camera, and zoomed in on the object. He managed to take one short video and three photos.
His wife suggested that the bizarre thing could be a glider, but they did not see a person with it, and the shape was not one would expect to see. The witness estimated the object to be at 400-500 feet or even higher. He also believes that the object is possibly 10-20 feet in length or longer.
The place where the event happened is sparsely populated with thick rainforest. To see such thing in the sky is something strange, according to the witness.
What would it take to hide an entire planet? It sounds more like a question posed in an episode of “Star Trek” than in academic discourse, but sometimes the bleeding edge of science blurs with themes found in science fiction.
Of course we’ve been leaking our own position to distant stars via radio and television signals for six decades now, largely ignorant of the cosmic implications. But several notable scientists, such as Stephen Hawking, have publicly voiced concerns about revealing our presence to other civilizations. These concerns largely draw from the darker chapters of our own history, when a more advanced civilization would subjugate and displace a less advanced one.
It might be too late for us to withdraw back into invisibility, but maybe not for other intelligent alien civilizations out there. A far-off planet’s inhabitants might prefer to hide from the likes of us. Recently, my graduate student Alex Teachey and I published a paper that proposes a way to cloak planets, as well as a way to broadcast a civilization’s existence. Even if we’re not manipulating our own signal in this way, it doesn’t mean other planets out there aren’t. It’s possible what we see as we scan the universe for other habitable planets has been engineered to disguise or highlight the existence of other civilizations.

Tracking transits to find other planets
Before we talk about how to hide a planet from distant voyeurs, consider the best way we’ve figured out to find one.
Humanity’s most successful technique for detecting other planets is the transit method. A transit occurs when a planet appears to pass in front of its parent sun, blocking out some of its starlight for a few hours. So if we have our telescopes trained at one part of the universe and a star seems to fade out for part of a day, that tells us that a planet has temporarily come between us as it goes about its orbit.
It seems likely that any advanced civilization would be aware of this simple method. Each time a planet transits its star, its existence is essentially being advertised to all points lying along the same plane as the planet and star.
An advanced civilization might be okay having its planet’s location, size and even atmospheric chemistry advertised across the cosmos. Or it might wish to conceal its presence. If the latter, it might choose to build a cloak.
The Kepler Mission identified 4,696 planet candidates by July 2015.
It turns out that hiding planets from the transit method would be surprisingly easy, so easy that we earthlings could do it right now, if we chose. Since transits appear as a brightness decrease of a distant star, our hypothetical cloak simply produces the opposite brightness increase.
Lasers provide an efficient means of countering that dip in brightness. All a laser’s power is contained in a relatively narrow beam, as opposed to spreading out in all directions like starlight does. Due to the way light spreads as it travels – called diffraction – the laser beam would spread to encompass entire solar systems after journeying many light years across space, bathing that distant planetary system within the cloaking beam. No dip in brightness makes it look like there’s no planet there at all.
A laser cloak capable of hiding the Earth from an alien version of NASA’s Kepler Mission would require 30 megawatts of power at peak intensity, approximately equivalent to 10 wind turbines worth of power output.
While Kepler sees light in only one color, advanced civilizations might use more sophisticated detectors capable of collecting light at all wavelengths. Here too, our current technology could cloak us using modern tunable lasers, for a cost of about 10 times more power overall. More advanced civilizations might be able to detect other fine details of the light’s properties, betraying the cloak. But here too there’s no reason why with a little bit of work we couldn’t engineer solutions, leading to a near perfect cloak which could be targeted at distant stars where we suspect someone might be home.
Why choose to hide
So yes, it sounds like science fiction, but even current technology could do a fine job of cloaking the Earth’s transit signature.
Forget the Earth though; we never really thought of this as something humanity should or should not do. Instead, we posit that if our rudimentary human technology can build such an effective transit cloak at relatively little economic cost, then more advanced civilizations may be able to hide from us with respect to all detection techniques. The universe might not be all that it seems.
Why might a civilization choose to wrap itself in invisibility? It could be a sort of insurance policy: find the nearby planets with potential for supporting life and turn on a targeted cloak – just in case a civilization ever emerges. Such a policy effectively buys them time to reveal their presence when they see fit.
Given how cheap such a cloak would be, an insurance policy for your home planet is perhaps not as strange as it seems. It’s certainly not implausible a civilization might want to bide its time – surveilling the neighbors for a while before rolling out the intergalactic welcome mat. But there’s a flip side to this technology that could turn it from an invisibility cloak into more of a we-are-here spotlight.
We think we know what it means when we see certain transit signals….
Perhaps not all civilizations are xenophobic – some might want to talk. If you wanted to reveal your presence to other civilizations as cheaply and unambiguously as possible, how might you do it?
Imagine looking at some data of a distant planet – which has become a somewhat normal enterprise for astronomers – and noticing something weird. The signature of the planet has a strange shape – in fact, none of your models are able to explain it. It looks like someone has imprinted a series of spikes into the data, following the prime number series. Nothing in nature can do this – you have just detected another civilization’s beacon. Alternative use of the cloaking system’s laser could be to make a planet’s signal look highly artificial, instead of hidden. Now they don’t care about building the perfect cloak; they want to be found!
Could such signals be lurking in our existing measurements? Perhaps so. No one has ever looked, and we hope our work sparks efforts on that front. It may be a long shot, since to even get to this point we need to try to imagine how aliens might think – but given the scientific prize on offer it’s also worth it. If we identify a strange transit, it may well contain information encoded via laser light pulses. Huge volumes of information could be hidden within the transit signatures of other planets.
For us, this was an exercise in intellectual curiosity. We simply calculated how much energy it would take to either cloak or broadcast a planet’s existence. Whether we should seriously consider wrapping Earth in a protective cloak of invisibility – or conversely, getting serious about trumpeting our existence – via laser manipulations is something we should all decide together.

Alien Abduction or Sleep Paralysis?
Alien Abduction or Sleep Paralysis?
(c) Kathleen Marden 2012
Kathleen Marden
I have personally been embroiled in the UFO abduction debate for 46 years and professionally involved for the past 21 years. As the niece of Betty and Barney Hill, the first abductees to gain public recognition in the United States, I find this unsolved mystery fascinating. On February 22, 1966, I observed an unconventional flying object hovering approximately less than 1000 feet above me. There were five other witnesses. I have observed additional anomalies that have been linked (by some researchers), to alien abduction phenomena. I have, however, never experienced sleep paralysis. I wish that I had so that I could describe it from a personal perspective. Without firsthand knowledge of this psycho-physiological process, I must rely upon information from those who study it professionally and the testimony of those who have experienced it.
Several skeptical scientists have suggested that sleep paralysis is the best explanation for nocturnal bedroom abductions. Nearly all abductees/ experiencers (depending upon one’s emotional response to the event), disagree. Those who were initially taken from an external environment (car, campsite, forest, field), after having a close encounter with an unconventional flying object and/or observing non-human entities, and experiencing approximately two hours “lost” time, are not convinced that that their subsequent bedroom abductions are sleep related anomalies.
Many abductees/experiencers have no memory of being taken from an external environment. They have only vivid memories of being taken from their beds during the night by humanoid figures and later returned with new, unexplainable marks on their bodies. Others wonder if they might have been abducted because they have observed strange lights in their bedrooms at night or observed the floating face of an alien figure above their beds.
Skeptics and scientific ufologists remind us that in the absence of substantial evidence, we cannot accept anecdotal abduction accounts as real. Our perception of the events that occur during the night, while we are sleeping or partially awake, could possibly be distorted by our sleeping minds. REM sleep, visual imagery, and sleep hallucinations can be confusing.
One thing is clear. All of us experience paralysis as a function of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. More dreaming occurs during REM sleep than in another stage of sleep. The paralysis prevents us from acting out our dreams and harming ourselves or others. It is most frequently reported to occur when we are falling asleep. But it can also occur upon waking. Some people have a sleep disorder that that interferes with normal REM sleep, causing them to act out their dreams. This condition requires medical treatment because REM sleep disorder sufferers have injured themselves or family members while in acting out in REM sleep.
Sleep paralysis is related to REM but is a different entity. It can occur just before falling asleep or waking up. You will have conscious awareness of your surroundings but not be able to move anything except your eyes. You might observe shadowy figures in your bedroom and your heart might pound, as a sense of fear jars you into wakefulness. About 30-40% of those queried by sleep study scientists report that they have experienced sleep paralysis. It is simply a sign that their bodies arenot moving smoothly through the stages of sleep.
People with narcolepsy, a condition characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and REM activity within ten minutes of falling asleep, are more likely to experience sleep paralysis accompanied by hypnagogic or hypnopompic hallucinations than the general population. Sleep paralysis alone is characteristically different than the colorful imagery described by people who have experienced H/H hallucinations.
There is conflicting information about H/H hallucinations and I have not been able to find conclusive answers with regard to its prevalence among human populations. HH ahllucinations can last up to several minutes and affect an estimated 5% to over 12% of the normal population. However, David J. Hufford wrote inThe Terror That Comes in the Night,that 50% or more of Yasuo Hishikawa’s narcoleptic subjects reported that they had experienced H/H hallucinations.
Hypnagogic(between waking and sleeping)and hypnopompic(between sleeping and waking) hallucinations occur when factors such as stress, extreme fatigue, medications, and mental illness cause the part of the brain that distinguishes between conscious perceptions and internally generated perceptions to misfire. This results in internally generated visions, sounds, feelings, smells or tastes. H/H hallucination experiencers often see colored geometric shapes or parts of objects. Others might observe the full image of a person, monster or animal. Sometimes lines or the outlines of figures are observed. Sensations of floating or flying are common, along with hallucinated buzzing sounds. H/H hallucinations can be frightening. The hallucinations can last from seconds to minutes and are usually accompanied by a brief period of sleep paralysis. They are experienced as being as real as real.
I once personally experienced a hypnopompic hallucination, without sleep paralysis. My husband and I were sleeping soundly when the telephone jarred me into partial wakefulness in the middle of the night. I didn’t answer the phone because I “saw” my husband walk toward it, as if he were going to answer it. Even though the room was dark I perceived that he was clothed in a brightly colored red and black plaid flannel shirt. The almost fluorescent colors were brighter than what can be observed in natural sunlight. I was perplexed because the phone continued to ring even though I “saw” my husband lift the receiver from the cradle. Almost immediately I was startled by the awareness of his presence in the bed next to me. My hallucination vanished and I answered the phone. It is the only hypnopompic hallucination that I have ever had, but as a lifelong student of human perception, I found it interesting and informative.
Some sleep scientists contend that an experiencer’s perception of alien abduction while sleeping or awake in bed is most likely attributable to sleep paralysis, perhaps with hypnopompic hallucinations. They suspect that extraterrestrial entities are generated in hypnagogic and hypnopompic sleep states. Sleep hallucinations might be related to dreams because they are more elaborate and enduring than sleep paralysis alone. Hypothetically, we might be sleeping and perhaps dreaming about alien entities. When we start to move up out of REM sleep we might experience a hypnopompic hallucination and “see” nonhuman entities in our bedroom that we perceive as real. After a few seconds or minutes, we become fully awake but remember the onset of an abduction/contact as if it were real.
If we experience a combination of sleep paralysis and H/H hallucinations, we will suffer intense fear and wake up paralyzed, unable to move anything except our eyes. We might observe shadowy figures standing beside our beds or hovering overhead. If we attempt to cry out we find that we can’t utter more than a nondescript sound. We’re locked inside paralyzed bodies, unable to speak or move, except for our eyes. Our hearts pound and we strain to breathe as if there is a weight upon our chests. We are acutely aware of surroundings. Shadows transform into frightening shadowy images and sounds intensify. We struggle to break free from our dreadful predicament, and within seconds we are fully awake. This occurs to some of us when we emerge from REM sleep and our natural paralysis continues for a few seconds. I have never met an abductee/experiencer who believes that their ET contact experience was sleep related.
I have, however, spoken with individuals who have experienced HH hallucinations throughout their lifetime. Most report the observation of geometric shapes or disconnected body parts. One observed the upper torso and face of a monster. Two have observed alien heads that were not connected to bodies. These details are not consistent with the reports that I have received from abductees/experiencers.
Many abductees/ experiencers have described distinctly different demarcations between sleep paralysis, H/H hallucinations and real abduction experiences. They insist that they were fully awake at the onset of an alien abduction or visitation. They might even have received a telepathic message earlier in the day that they would be visited. They did not wake up paralyzed. It was only after they cried out or attempted to fight or flee that they became paralyzed. Some might even remember being transported through solid objects, such as a wall, roof or window, to a craft. Most have observed non-human entities and might even retain a complex memory of being examined on the craft and/or being taught a lesson. They are later returned to their beds. Prior to their experience some witnesses report that they were nervously glancing at their alarm clocks, unable to sleep due to their anxiety about an impending abduction. Having noted the time on their alarm clocks prior to and after their experience, they can think of no prosaic explanation for the lost time. Sometimes bed partners and family members sleeping in the house recall identical experiences on the same night.
Sleep paralysis and HH hallucinations are not an acceptable explanation for “Jennie Henderson’s experiences. At age 16, she and a companion were in route to a high school basketball game when they were stopped and immobilized by an unconventional craft and “lost” two hour’s time. At first the craft resembled a helicopter in rapid pursuit of their vehicle. The silent teardrop shaped object hovered directly overhead and the engine of the Volkswagen died. As if only a moment had passed the car restarted and the teens were once again on their way to their destination. Jennie anticipated meeting her younger brother there and transporting him home at the end of the school event. Upon their arrival, they discovered that the event had ended nearly two hours earlier. There was no prosaic explanation for their “lost” time, and the family decided not to make a formal report of the event.
Years later, Jennie sought help after she experienced a series of frightening nocturnal bedroom visitations. Occasionally, she would awaken during the night and observe nonhuman entities in her bedroom. Shortly thereafter, a wave of paralysis crept up her body. Several times, she was fully awake when an unseen force suddenly and unexpectedly ripped her body from her bed. Her next conscious memory was of finding herself in a holding area aboard a strange craft accompanied by short non-human entities with grayish skin and large eyes. As time passed, she was able to recall many of the details of her visits with extraterrestrial entities, without hypnosis. Her husband and children’s memories of the events added support to Jennie’s suspicion that she had not experienced a sleep anomaly or vivid dream. On two occasions, her neighbors observed a silent disk-shaped craft hovering over her rural home.
Many abductees believe that their experiences are real because they and others in their homes retain the same experiential memories. When there is unusual physical evidence attached to these memories, it is difficult to find an adequate prosaic explanation such as sleep paralysis and H/H hallucinations. Abductees are often awakened by a rushing sound and activity in their bedrooms. At the onset of their experience they are not paralyzed, and often cry out, attempt to escape, or even throw objects at the intruders. Small entities, often with glistening eyes, move about their bedrooms. The abductees’ partners sometimes attempt to fight back, but are quickly immobilized and returned to their beds in a seemingly deep sleep.
Some abductees/experiencers are returned to their beds, but others end up locked outside of their homes. Some awaken on their roofs, in their vehicles, or even in someone else’s home. Sometimes they find mud and vegetative matter in their beds. Others find they are no longer dressed in their own clothing, but in a stranger’s nightshirt. Sometimes experiencers find landing trace evidence on their property.
Most academic psychologists ignore these unique characteristics associated with nocturnal bedroom abductions. Instead they attempt to squeeze reports made by abductees/experiencers into sleep paralysis and HH hallucination categories, despite the evidence to the contrary. There are several reasons for this. One is that HH hallucinations and sleep paralysis are often experienced as real as real and can contain complex imagery and physiological responses. Another is that when Occam’s razor, theprinciple that among competing hypotheses, the simplest explanation within accepted scientific paradigms is the most plausible, HHHs and SP are the scientifically acceptable explanations. Political agendas have relegated UFO and alien abduction to the fringe science category. Officially, ufology is a pseudoscience lacking the respectability required for serious scientific study. A few courageous scientists have stepped outside politically acceptable constraints and have advanced our scientific knowledge of UFO related phenomena. However, some have experienced the professional consequences of thinking outside the box. Young scientists who wish to advance their professional careers are fearful of investigating these taboo subjects. To do so might lead to professional suicide.

NASA’s Cassini spacecraft continues making history. As Cassini is plunging into Saturn, the spacecraft has managed to send back to Earth unprecedented, stunning images from its descent down the mysterious gap located between Saturn and its magnificent rings.
NASA notes that the first few images sent back to Earth from Cassini are unprocessed, and it is unclear what they show.
“No spacecraft has ever gone through the unique region that we’ll attempt to boldly cross 22 times,’ said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington. What we learn from Cassini’s daring final orbits will further our understanding of how giant planets, and planetary systems everywhere, form and evolve. This is truly discovery in action to the very end.”
The newly received images are “our closest look ever at Saturn’s atmosphere and giant hurricane,” NASA revealed.
Cassini has begun its descent which will eventually conclude in September of 2017.
While during its daredevil dive, communications with Cassini went dark, NASA has recently announced that they’ve managed to pick up radio signals from the spacecraft thanks to the agencies 70m-wide Deep Space Network (DSN) antenna at Goldstone, California.

Using Twitter, NASA announced: “We did it! Cassini is in contact with Earth and sending back data after a successful dive through the gap between Saturn and its rings.”
Speaking about the Cassini spacecraft and its trip into Saturn, Jim Green, director of the Planetary Science Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington, said: “In the grandest tradition of exploration, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft has once again blazed a trail, showing us new wonders and demonstrating where our curiosity can take us if wedare.”
Cassini recently performed the first of its 22 dives through the unknown gap located between Saturn and its rings and has managed to beam back mind-bending images of the trip.
Earl Maize, Cassini Project Manager said: “No spacecraft has ever been this close to Saturn before. We could only rely on predictions, based on our experience with Saturn’s other rings, of what we thought this gap between the rings and Saturn would be like. I am delighted to report that Cassini shot through the gap just as we planned and has come out the other side in excellent shape.”
According to experts, the unexplored ‘gap’ between the planet and its rings is about 2,000 kilometers in width.

Cassini is speeding through the region at around 124,000 kilometers per hour and NASA has warned that given the speed the spacecraft is traveling at, small particles crashing into sensitive areas of Cassini could have disabled the spacecraft.
In order to avoid this, it used its large disc-shaped high-gain antenna as a shield from incoming ring particles. It will continue sending important data back to Earth as it makes its way into Saturn’s atmosphere.
Cassini—a 6.7-meter tall spacecraft—has faithfully been orbiting Saturn for 13 years since it reached orbit in 2004. Cassini’s mission will officially terminate on September 15 when the spacecraft will plunge into Saturn.
“The spacecraft is now on a ballistic path, so that even if we were to forgo future small course adjustments using thrusters, we would still enter Saturn’s atmosphere on Sept. 15 no matter what,” said Earl Maize, Cassini project manager at JPL.
While the spacecraft is making its way into Saturn, it will beam back more data.
“Cassini’s up-close exploration of Titan is now behind us, but the rich volume of data the spacecraft has collected will fuel scientific study for decades to come,” said Linda Spilker, the mission’s project scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.
Among its most prominent discoveries, Cassini found that some of Saturn’s moons are the most likely places in our solar system that may be home to alien life. In addition to that, Cassini has also found a global ocean hiding within Enceladus, and liquid methane seas on Titan.

Eyewitness report of a forestry worker who was attacked by aliens in Scotland
Eyewitness report of a forestry worker who was attacked by aliens in Scotland
The mystery of what happened to a forestry worker called Robert Taylor on a chilly November morning more than 30 years ago is one that has baffled all who have examined the case, including the police, who keep the file open and consider it “unexplained”.
He arrived for work as normal in his company-owned pick-up truck with his Irish red setter Larah and started to walk down the path into the woods.
But as he rounded the path into a clearing he was absolutely astonished to see what he later described as a “large dome-shaped object” of about 20-30ft circumference hovering 15ft above the surface of the grass.
He said that parts of it seemed to disappear around the edges, it would seem to dematerialize so he could see the trees behind it, then solidify again.
As he watched it, what resembled two WWII sea mines dropped from beneath the object and rolled towards him and just before they reached him a burning smell, like burning brake lines, flooded the area and he heard a loud swishing noise.
The “mines” rolled across the grass and rods came out of them, which attached themselves to his hips and began to pull him towards the object.
At this point he lost consciousness, he didn’t know for how long but thought it could only have been for one or two minutes.
When he came to the objects were gone and there were marks and holes on the ground, more than 20 circular or triangular indentations in the grass. Robert also had a nasty graze on his forehead and another one on his chin, and an incredible thirst.
Footage from two different locations captured what many believe is the same incident of what looks like a huge fireball.
The first video, taken in Louisiana yesterday, shows something seemingly falling from the sky with a huge trail of smoke behind.
A second video was then uploaded the same night from neighbouring state Texas.

UFO: There was plenty of speculation over what the bizarre apocalyptic looking object was
Internet terrified by BIZARRE apocalyptic scene falling from sky
“It looked like a bomb coming down.”
Eyewitness
Again it shows a huge object falling to the ground surrounded by a bright reddish colour and a massive trail behind it.
One Twitter user who saw the event described it as a “burning fire falling out of (the) sky.”
Another added: "It looked like a bomb coming
UFO hunters were quick to speculate what the weird phenomenon was, with some suggesting it was a strange weather feature while others thought it could be a downed satellite.
But not everyone was so serious, with one Reddit user suggesting: “Maybe Superman coming to Earth from Krypton?”
Most, however, thought it was a central from a plane caught in the sunset.
He claims that ancient 'technological species' may have lived on Earth billions of years before the human race.
Well, either Earth, or a "pre-greenhouse Venus," or "a wet Mars". He's not 100 per cent sure.
However, Wright claims:
Given that it is known to host complex life, the most obvious origin for a prior species of any sort is Earth.
He pulls no punches when he explains that:
Present-day Venus would seem to be a terrible candidate for a technological species, with a surface temperature over 700K, although when it comes to alien life we should keep an open mind about even this.
Wright believes that the ancient species has disappeared, but that in the past we could have found found traces of them underground, called "technosignatures".
However, he claims that most of the physical evidence would now be lost.
On Venus, for example, the global greenhouse arrival may have resulted in a resurfacing of the planet, while on Earth the movement of tectonic plates and subsequent erosion could have erased any lingering traces.
Nevertheless, he writes, it might still be possible to recognise these technosignatures even if the physical evidence is all but destroyed.
He explains:
Structures buried beneath surfaces might survive and be discoverable as long as they do not suffer a collision so severe that their artificial nature is obliterated.
Merely destroying them would render them nonfunctional, but they might still be recognisably technological.
We might conjecture that settlements or bases on these objects would have been built beneath the surface for a variety of reasons, and so still be discoverable today.
Wright proposes that we might find traces on more undisturbed surfaces such as the Moon and Mars.
Of course, the idea that humans are not the only sentient species is nothing new.
Indeed, he writes, "the idea of indigenous Martian civilisations pervades science fiction to the point of cliche".
However, the proposal that the alien species is already extinct is comparatively unexplored in the scientific field.
But why does Wright think they disappeared?
Wright says that "the most obvious answer" is a cataclysm, "whether a natural event such as an extinction-level asteroid impact, or self-inflicted, such as a global climate catastrophe".
However, in the case of a species which had settled in the Solar System, Wright explains:
...Such an event would only permanently extinguish the species if there were many cataclysms across the Solar System closely spaced in time (a swarm of comets, or interplanetary warfare perhaps), or if the settlements were not completely self-sufficient.
Alternatively, an unexpected nearby gamma ray burst or supernova might produce a Solar-System-wide cataclysm.
Even without a cataclysm, the species may have simply died out, or become permanently non-technological at some point, or [...] abandoned the Solar System permanently for some reason.

HUMAN OR NOT? MYSTERIOUS CREATURE SPARKS INTERNET FRENZY IN INDONESIA
HUMAN OR NOT? MYSTERIOUS CREATURE SPARKS INTERNET FRENZY IN INDONESIA
An unusual figure appears in Indonesian forest which may be proof of a lost, legendary tribe.
There were dramatic scenes in Jakarta recently when a high profile bike tour took a disastrous turn when a rider fell from his bike in shock when a figure emerged from the forest which some have speculated was not a human being.
The incredible moment when the Banda Aceh-based motor trail group met the mysterious figure in Indonesia’s most western province was caught on camera. The video clearly shows the lead rider falling from his bike in fright as a human-like figure, who is considerably smaller than the average person, appears suddenly on the track ahead bearing a wooden stick as though it was a weapon.
The individual in the track stopped and observed the bikers for a brief moment before tearing off into the forest. Individual bikers attempted to track down the figure after he ran away, but despite the fact that they were on motorbikes and the figure was traveling on foot they were unable to catch up with him. The figure managed to elude them by darting into shrubbery vegetation and was last sighting disappearing into the deepest thicket of the forest.
The video was posted online where it has attracted a huge amount of attention and speculation. While some people have suggested that the figure was some kind of supernatural being, others have suggested that he could have been a member of the legendary Mante tribe. The Mante tribe are believed to be an ethnic group who have inhabited this region of Indonesia for a long time. There has been no anthropological investigation attempting to contact the tribe and they have never sought out contact with other people living in the area. Owing to the fact that nothing is known about these people, it is commonly believed that they are nothing more than an urban legend. However, the emergence of this video may call this into question.
RIDLEY SCOTT: 'ALIENS EXIST AND THEY'RE A LOT SMARTER THAN US. DON'T CHALLENGE THEM!'
RIDLEY SCOTT: 'ALIENS EXIST AND THEY'RE A LOT SMARTER THAN US. DON'T CHALLENGE THEM!'
Ridley Scott is one of the most famous creators of Aliens and he believes that they are really out there and says that one day when they are ready they are going to come. The director spoke up and said that it is ridiculous to think that humans are alone in the universe and he firmly believes that one-day superior beings are going to pay a visit to Earth. The director was talking as he prepares for the release of Alien: Covenant.
"SUPERIOR BEINGS WILL VISIT EARTH, EXPERT AT NASA AGREES"
He made the following comments on extraterrestrial life:
“I believe in superior beings. I think it is certainly likely. An expert I was talking to at NASA said to me, ‘Have you ever looked in the sky at night? You mean to tell me we are it?’ That’s ridiculous.
The experts have now put a number on it having assessed what is out there. They say that there are between 100 and 200 entities that could be having a similar evolution to us right now. So when you see a big thing in the sky, run for it.”
Ridley's “Xenomorph” and “chestburster” alien creatures have terrified his fans for nearly 40 years.
Alien: Covenant is the second in the list of prequel movies and it has a setting during the year of 2104 on a spacecraft that is carrying 2,000 colonists who have been cryogenically frozen while traveling to a distant planet when they come across what they believe is uncharted paradise. However, as you might expect from Ridley Scott, the voyage soon becomes a nightmare full of gore that will have those watching think nothing of the alien bursting out of the chest of the man in the original movie.
"WE SHOULD NOT MESS WITH REAL-LIFE ALIENS"
He explained:
“They are a lot smarter than we are. If you are stupid enough to challenge them, you will be taken out in three seconds.”
Finally, he joked:
“Nothing scares me.I have a 9mm (pistol).
Scott went on to say that he could not believe all the terror that he had managed to create when he saw the reactions of those who had watched the original movies. He said that people were hiding half under their seats by the time the kitchen scene where the alien pushed its way out of the chest of John Hurt. Scott, on the other hand, claims to be un-shockable, he bragged that nothing scared him, he did admit to being nervous though when walking onto the set of a film and there are 600 plus people all looking at you.
Whether the alien life form that Scott believes is going to be making its way to Earth at some point in time will be anything like the aliens Scott created remains to be seen, but it’s hoped they are friendlier.
“ALIEN: COVENANT” WILL OPEN NATIONWIDE IN CINEMAS ON MAY 19.
As World War II was of an epic nature it might not come as any big surprise that those fighting on both sides in the war were said to have used the paranormal so as to gain an edge over their enemy.
Now a user on YouTube with the name of Dark5s has put together a very enlightening collection of paranormal stories which back to WWII and all of which involve something totally strange, weird, and unusual or things that cannot be explained.
One of the stories in the video may explain an even from the war that has perplexed people for a long time. This, of course, was Rudolph Hess and his bizarre flight to Scotland with the hope of negotiating peace between the Nazis and Britain. At the time the actions of Hess were thought to be baffling to both sides involved and just what could have motivated him to make such a trip has remained something of a mystery.
In the years that followed the war, it came to light that perhaps Hess may have been duped by the British Intelligence into making the strange journey. It has been suggested that perhaps the British Intelligence tapped into the psychic realm.
Rumors have been very persistent over the years that there had been a joint effort between magician Aleister Crowley and intelligence agent, who went on to write books about secret agents, Ian Fleming. It was said that Crowley was able to manipulate the mind of Hess using psychic messages and then Fleming did his part by making it look like the insights were real through propaganda pieces that were carefully used.
If this is true the tandem attack by the two proved to be successful, at least when it came to inspiring Hess to leave his post and take on a peace mission that was futile and one which caused chaos for the Nazis.
Along with this story, many other fascinating events have been included in the video. These include covens of witches who tried to protect England with a magic ritual and the quest of Hitler to find the Holy Grail.
US PRESIDENT MAY SOON RELEASE A LARGE CACHE OF CLASSIFIED JFK FILES
US PRESIDENT MAY SOON RELEASE A LARGE CACHE OF CLASSIFIED JFK FILES
Is the truth about the JFK assassination about to be revealed?
The assassination of John F. Kennedy still fascinates many people after fifty years. While the FBI and the American government claim that the official story is simply true, much of the information about the murder remains classified. Why would the information still be kept a secret after so many decades if there was nothing more to the story? Many people who were young at the time of the assassination are now dead. Who is the information being kept secret from?
Perhaps, the information will not be kept secret for much longer. It may be the case that the Trump administration is going to release all of what is known about the details of the assassination. In 1992, it was decided that the information would remain secret for another 25 years. It is now up to the president whether or not the information will remain secret.
There are 3500 files that could either be released or be kept secret. If the files do not include a simple admission that the official story is wrong, perhaps the files could contain clues that point to the real nature and purpose of the assassination. If the assassination was a conspiracy involving organizations that still possess a lot of power today, it seems unlikely that Trump could release the files. However, one could imagine the files being released even if they contain strong evidence that Oswald was not the assassin.
October of 2017 is the earliest date at which the files might be released. The final decision is up to the president, but the CIA and FBI will soon make a recommendation about whether or not to release the files. One could certainly doubt that the files contain everything that the government knows about the assassination. It could very well be the case that, even if the files are released to the public, the real story will remain secret.
Wij mensen zien ze regelmatig vliegen door onze luchten, maar net buiten onze dampkring gebeuren ook heel interessante dingen.
Het toeval wil dat er daarvan deze week een aantal leuke voorbeelden opduiken, zoals een NASA foto, gemaakt door de Apollo 10 missie.
Er zijn mensen die bijna hun hele dag besteden aan het bestuderen en bekijken van door NASA gemaakte foto’s en komen dan soms heel bijzondere dingen tegen.
Zoals een foto gemaakt door NASA astronauten in 1969.
Apollo 10 was de vierde bemande vlucht uit het Apolloprogramma. De bemanning bestond uit commandant Thomas Stafford, CSM-piloot John Young en maanlanderpiloot Eugene Cernan.
Deze vlucht vond plaats in 1969 en diende ter voorbereiding op een maanlanding met Apollo 11 om het aan- en afkoppelen van diverse modules te oefenen.
Ook maakten ze prachtige foto’s van de aarde en op één daarvan is door de bekende Streetcap1 iets bijzonders ontdekt.
Iets, wat daar absoluut niet op thuis hoort en wat door de NASA censuur waarschijnlijk per ongeluk niet is weggehaald.
Het ziet er als volgt uit:
Vanuit het ruimtestation ISS (International Space Station), niet te verwarren met ISIS (Israeli Secret Intelligence Service), heb je ook een prachtig uitzicht op onze aarde en wat daar allemaal net buiten de dampkring gebeurt. Als het allemaal echt is natuurlijk.
De Franse ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet die op dit moment in het ISS verblijft, wilde een filmopname maken van een elektrische storm boven het westen van Amerika.
Echter, hij filmde nog meer, want op de video die Pesquet maakte, waren duidelijk een aantal objecten te zien die niet alleen met grote snelheid boven de aarde vlogen, maar ook nog eens allerlei vreemde bochten maakten.
Volgens wetenschappers van ESA (European Space Agency) waren het wel degelijk solide objecten en waarschijnlijk satellieten, maar ze konden even niet bedenken over welke satellieten het dan wel zou gaan.
Bekijk de volgende beelden en oordeel zelf of satellieten in staat zijn om een dergelijke veranderende koers te vliegen.
De opname van Pesquet werd op 17 april gemaakt en tien dagen later, op 27 april 2017, maakte NASA zelf een opname van een ronde UFO nabij het ISS die van kleur veranderde.
Deze ontdekking werd wederom gedaan door Streetcap1 en het lukte hem beelden vast te leggen, ondanks dat op het moment dat NASA ook het object opmerkte zij zoals gewoonlijk de verbinding verbraken en een blauw scherm toonden.
Giant UFO Over Colima Volcano Makes Sudden 90 Degree Turn, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Giant UFO Over Colima Volcano Makes Sudden 90 Degree Turn, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Jan 29, 2017 Location of sighting: Colima, Mexico Source:www.webcamsdemexico.com I was going through the Colima volcano archives and found this amazing UFO as it makes a sudden hard right turn, and heads for the volcano base. I believe that the UFO was heading to and underground base that is located about 4-5 miles below the Colima volcano. This volcano is defiantly on the top ten list for being one of the most popular locations for UFOs. There are actually two UFOs, one close and one far in the video at the bottom of this post.

Given the prevalence of UFO sightings, it’s no surprise that public figures such as celebrities or politicians sometimes witness unexplained aerial phenomenon. A new celebrity UFO disclosure came this week from Hollywood legend Kurt Russell, who shared an eerie personal UFO sighting while on the BBC’s The One Show. Russell appeared on the show alongside Chris Pratt to promote the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 when The One Show‘s hosts asked the pair if they believe alien beings have visited our planet. Pratt claimed that no, he does not, after which Russell opened up and recounted a strange encounter he and his son had with a set of unidentified lights in the sky.
Russell says he saw the lights while aboard his private plane.
Russell claims he was flying his son Oliver to visit Oliver’s girlfriend when the two of them spotted a strange set of lights in the sky:
I was flying him to go see his girlfriend. And we were on approach and I saw six lights over the airport in an absolute uniform V-shape. Oliver said ‘Pa, what are those lights?’ And then I kind of came out of my reverie and I said ‘I don’t know what they are.’
Russell then says he called in the sighting to the airport, asking if any aircraft were in the skies. The airport then reportedly radioed back that their radar systems were not showing any aircraft in that area at the time and logged the lights as unidentified.
Similar V-shaped formations have been reported in many famous sightings, including the mass sighting in Phoenix in 1997.
A few years later, Russell says his wife Goldie Hawn was watching a television documentary on the infamous Phoenix Lights sightings. As Russell watched footage of the lights, he experienced a strange feeling of deja vu:
As I’m watching this, I’m feeling like Richard Dreyfuss in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. I thought ‘Why do I know this?’ It’s not clear to me.
Russell then remembered his UFO sighting and checked his log books on the day of the flight, and sure enough, he had somehow forgotten to record the sighting in his flight log. To this day, Russell can’t explain the sighting.
Russell previously battled parasitic aliens who crashed on Earth in John Carpenter’s sci fi-horror classic ‘The Thing.’
As Chris Pratt put it in the interview, “I think that’s an awesome story man”
These three beings stood over me and we had a long communication where they told me I would learn to meditate in order to stay in touch with them, and help communication between them and us [humans].
Thus begins a story that ends with a woman being “upgraded” to an alien hybrid. How does that happen?
The latest issue of the magazine New Idea contains an interview with author and purported alien abductee Judy Carroll of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Now 64, Carroll claims she was first contacted by aliens she believes are Greys when she was a child. The positive ID came in 1983 when the telepathic communications became actual physical contact as Carroll says the extraterrestrials took her on their spaceship for the first time. From her description – “pure white, with beautiful archways and no sharp corners” – it sounds like these Greys travel in a big flying saucer. However …
I don’t always remember as I’m taken during sleep, but I do have many conscious memories too.
Carroll describes the three beings that stood over her as thin-bodied, bald and with teardrop-shaped eyes and no moving jaws. Although he doesn’t corroborate that description in the interview, Carroll says her husband claims he’s seen an alien hovering over her while she’s meditating. Her husband sounds like an understanding guy, especially since Carroll also reveals that she has an alien teacher and healer on the ship named Maris, who has a “soul-to-soul” relationship with her. That relationship includes an interesting way of healing, as she describes how Maris cured a throat problem.
I remember him massaging my neck and putting his long fingers in my mouth and down my throat, where I said I was tight.
That throat problem could be because she claims she’s a hybrid and her human neck is dealing with her jawless alien side. Carroll believes she was chosen by the aliens while still in the womb and her DNA has been “upgraded” on her regular visits to the ship, where she says she’s witnessed the aliens “working on humans” who had also been taken there.
These monthly visits, meditative communications and instructions from Maris are the basis for Judy Carroll’s books and website where she helps other abductees and hybrids deal with their condition, memories and experiences. The site also acts as a clearinghouse for information about Greys (or Zetas as she also calls them) and provides a way for Carroll to distribute communications from them.
Is Judy Carroll really a Human by Day, Zeta by Night as the title of her docudrama suggests? She doesn’t provide the hard facts — like a DNA test or doctor’s exam, for example — that would sway skeptics. However, she does offer a good collection of interesting information and reading and her assistance to those who have a hard time convincing others they’ve been abducted is undoubtedly greatly appreciated.
It obviously helps to have an understanding spouse.
