Nasa discovers 10 new 'rocky' planets like Earth

Ian Johnston Science Correspondent 

“Additionally, results using Kepler data suggest two distinct size groupings of small planets. Both results have significant implications for the search for life.”

Mario Perez, a Kepler programme scientist at Nasa, stressed the importance of the space telescope.

“The Kepler data set is unique, as it is the only one containing a population of these near Earth-analogues – planets with roughly the same size and orbit as Earth,” he said.

“Understanding their frequency in the galaxy will help inform the design of future Nasa missions to directly image another Earth.”

As a kind of follow-up to my previous article on the new and highly dubious Majestic 12 documents and the Roswell affair, I thought I would share with you something that we should all ponder on. It’s a very important issue that few people ever think about when it comes to the crash of the whatever-it-was that came down on the Foster Ranch, Lincoln County, New Mexico in July 1947. It is, however, an issue that gets right to the very heart of the incident and the matter of what did or did not happen. It goes like this…

If the debris – and possibly bodies and a somewhat intact craft – recovered outside of Roswell, New Mexico in the summer of 1947 had extra-terrestrial origins, then why did the aliens’ comrades fail to attempt to recover the priceless materials before elements of the U.S. military appeared on the scene? Why did they let it fall into our hands? They are questions that certainly should be addressed.

After all, even a cursory study of UFO history reveals that aliens (particularly so in “alien abduction” cases) are supposedly able to walk through walls and doors. They reportedly abduct people against their will and then return them to their homes without being caught in the act. They steal and / or mutilate cattle right under the noses of outraged farmers, and they traverse the universe with ease. They are even said to have snatched military and private aircraft in flight – planes and crews that have never been seen again. The 1953 affair of Karl Hunrath and Wilbur Wilkinson, and the 1978 incident involving Frederick Valentich, are perfect examples.

So, in light of all their incredible and unearthly skills, why weren’t the assumed aliens able to scoop up a few bodies and a bunch of scattered debris from an isolated ranch in New Mexico? After all, it’s hardly as if everything took place in Times Square with thousands of amazed onlookers crowding around. This thought-provoking issue has also been addressed by Canadian film-maker Paul Kimball, who says the following: “…surely they would have moved to recover any crashed excursion module as quickly as possible, a process which, considering the advanced technology that the aliens must possess in order to get ‘here’ from ‘there’ is something that they would have accomplished before Mack Brazel discovered the debris field and then alerted the military, even if that involved simply disintegrating the debris field so as to leave no trace behind of the crash.”

If E.T.s did crash on the Foster Ranch almost 70 years ago, then a number of possibilities spring to mind:

(A) The aliens wanted to introduce themselves to us in the form of a staged-crash, and as vulnerable, mortal beings, to whom we could possibly relate, and without being confronted by an infinitely advanced intelligence that might blow our minds.

(B) The event was the result of a “Trojan Horse”-style scenario – also staged by the other-worldly ones, but for far more sinister purposes, such as perhaps attempting to expose us to deadly alien viruses, but in a seemingly innocent and accidental fashion.

(C) The aliens, far away from home, may not actually have been too far in advance of us – perhaps a century or so – and simply didn’t have the adequate resources and reserves at-hand to engage in a hasty retrieval. Possible, though the evidence suggests the true UFO phenomenon is millennia in front of us – probably more.

There is, of course, another theory. In my view, it a far more probable and likely one. Aliens didn’t try and recover the Roswell wreckage because…what happened at Roswell didn’t involve aliens…

Zombies and aliens may not be a realistic threat to our species. But there’s one stock movie villain we can’t be so sanguine about: sentient robots. If anything, their arrival is probably just a matter of time. But what will a world of conscious machines be like? Will there be a place in it for us?

Artificial intelligence research has been going through a recent revolution. AI systems can now outperform humans at playing chess and Go, recognizing faces, and driving safely. Even so, most researchers say truly conscious machines — ones that don’t just run programs but have feelings and are self-aware — are decades away. First, the reasoning goes, researchers have to build a generalized intelligence, a single machine with the above talents and the capacity to learn more. Only then will AI reach the level of sophistication needed for consciousness.

But some think it won’t take nearly that long.

“People expect that self-awareness is going to be this end game of artificial intelligence when really there are no scientific pursuits where you start at the end,” says Justin Hart, a computer scientist at the University of Texas. He and other researchers are already building machines with rudimentary minds. One robot wriggles like a newborn baby to understand its body. Another robot babbles about what it sees and cries when you hit it. Another sets off to explore its world on its own.

No one claims that robots have a rich inner experience — that they have pride in floors they’ve vacuumed or delight in the taste of 120-volt current. But robots can now exhibit some similar qualities to the human mind, including empathy, adaptability, and gumption.

Beyond it just being cool to create robots, researchers design these cybernetic creatures because they’re trying to fix flaws in machine-learning systems. Though these systems may be powerful, they are opaque. They work by relating input to output, like a test where you match items in column ‘A’ with items in column ‘B’. The AI systems basically memorize these associations. There’s no deeper logic behind the answers they give. And that’s a problem.

Humans can also be hard to read. We spend an inordinate amount of time analyzing ourselves and others, and arguably, that’s the main role of our conscious minds. If machines had minds, they might not be so inscrutable. We could simply ask them why they did what they did.

“If we could capture some of the structure of consciousness, it’s a good bet that we’d be producing some interesting capacity,” says Selmer Bringsjord, an AI researcher at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y. Although science fiction may have us worried about sentient robots, it’s really the mindless robots we need to be cautious of. Conscious machines may actually be our allies.​

ROBOT, KNOW THYSELF

Self-driving cars have some of the most advanced AI systems today. They decide where to steer and when to brake by taking constant radar and laser readings and feeding them into algorithms. But much of driving is anticipating other drivers’ maneuvers and responding defensively — functions that are associated with consciousness.

“Self-driving cars will have to read the minds of what other self-driving cars want to do,” says Paul Verschure, a neuroscientist at Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona.

As a demonstration of how that might look, Hod Lipson, an engineering professor at Columbia University and co-author of a recent book on self-driving cars, and Kyung-Joong Kim at Sejong University in Seoul, South Korea built the robotic equivalent of a crazy driver. The small round robot (about the size of a hockey puck) moves on a loopy path according to its own logic. Then a second robot is set with the goal of intercepting the first robot no matter where the first one started, so it couldn’t record a fixed route; it had to divine the moving robot’s logic.

People expect that self-awareness is going to be this end game of AI when really there are no scientific pursuits where you start at the end.

Using a procedure that mimicked Darwinian evolution, Lipson and Kim crafted an interception strategy. “It had basically developed a duplicate of the brain of the actor — not perfect, but good enough that it could anticipate what it’s going to do,” Lipson says.

Lipson’s team also built a robot that can develop an understanding of its body. The four-legged spidery machine is about the size of a large tarantula. When switched on, its internal computer has no prior information about itself. “It doesn’t know how its motors are arranged, what its body plan is,” Lipson says

But it has the capacity to learn. It makes all the actions it is capable of to see what happens: how, for example, turning on a motor bends a leg joint. “Very much like a baby, it babbles,” Lipson says. “It moves its motors in a random way.”

After four days of flailing, it realizes it has four legs and figures out how to coordinate and move them so it can slither across the floor. When Lipson unplugs one of the motors, the robot realizes it now has only three legs and that its actions no longer produce the intended effects.

“I would argue this robot is self-aware in a very primitive way,” Lipson says.

Another humanlike capability that researchers would like to build into AI is initiative. Machines excel at playing the game Go because humans directed the machines to solve it. They can’t define problems on their own, and defining problems is usually the hard part.

In a forthcoming paper for the journal “Trends in Cognitive Science,” Ryota Kanai, a neuroscientist and founder of a Tokyo-based startup Araya discusses how to give machines intrinsic motivation. In a demonstration, he and his colleagues simulated agents driving a car in a virtual landscape that includes a hill too steep for the car to climb unless it gets a running start. If told to climb the hill, the agents figure out how to do so. Until they receive this command, the car sits idle.

Then Kanai’s team endowed these virtual agents with curiosity. They surveyed the landscape, identified the hill as a problem, and figured out how to climb it even without instruction.

“We did not give a goal to the agent,” Kanai says. “The agent just explores the environment to learn what kind of situation it is in by making predictions about the consequence of its own action.”

The trick is to give robots enough intrinsic motivation to make them better problem solvers, and not so much that they quit and walk out of the lab. Machines can prove as stubborn as humans. Joscha Bach, an AI researcher at Harvard, put virtual robots into a “Minecraft”-like world filled with tasty but poisonous mushrooms. He expected them to learn to avoid them. Instead, they stuffed their mouths.

“They discounted future experiences in the same way as people did, so they didn’t care,” Bach says. “These mushrooms were so nice to eat.” He had to instill an innate aversion into the bots. In a sense, they had to be taught values, not just goals.

PAYING ATTENTION

In addition to self-awareness and self-motivation, a key function of consciousness is the capacity to focus your attention. Selective attention has been an important area in AI research lately, not least by Google DeepMind, which developed the Go-playing computer.

“Consciousness is an attention filter,” says Stanley Franklin, a computer science professor at the University of Memphis. In a paper published last year in the journal “Biologically Inspired Cognitive Architectures,” Franklin and his colleagues reviewed their progress in building an AI system called LIDA that decides what to concentrate on through a competitive process, as suggested by neuroscientist Bernard Baars in the 1980s. The processes watch for interesting stimuli — loud, bright, exotic — and then vie for dominance. The one that prevails determines where the mental spotlight falls and informs a wide range of brain function, including deliberation and movement. The cycle of perception, attention, and action repeats five to 10 times a second.

The first version of LIDA was a job-matching server for the U.S. Navy. It read emails and focused on pertinent information while juggling each job hunter’s interests, the availability of jobs, and the requirements of government bureaucracy.

Since then, Franklin’s team has used the system to model animals’ minds, especially behavioral quirks that result from focusing on one thing at a time. For example, LIDA is just as prone as humans are to a curious psychological phenomenon known as “attentional blink.” When something catches your attention, you become oblivious to anything else for about half a second. This cognitive blind spot depends on many factors and LIDA shows humanlike responses to these same factors.

Pentti Haikonen, a Finnish AI researcher, has built a robot named XCR-1 on similar principles. Whereas other researchers make modest claims — create some quality of consciousness — Haikonen argues that his creation is capable of genuine subjective experience and basic emotions.

The system learns to make associations much like the neurons in our brains do. If Haikonen shows the robot a green ball and speaks the word “green,” the vision and auditory modules respond and become linked. If Haikonen says “green” again, the auditory module will respond and, through the link, so will the vision module. The robot will proceed as if it heard the word and saw the color, even if it’s staring into an empty void.

Conversely, if the robot sees green, the auditory module will respond, even if the word wasn’t uttered. In short, the robot develops a kind of synesthesia.

“If we see a ball, we may say so to ourselves, and at that moment our perception is rather similar to the case when we actually hear that word,” Haikonen says. “The situation in the XCR-1 is the same.”

Things get interesting when the modules clash — if, for example, the vision module sees green while the auditory module hears “blue.” If the auditory module prevails, the system as a whole turns its attention to the word it hears while ignoring the color it sees. The robot has a simple stream of consciousness consisting of the perceptions that dominate it moment by moment: “green,” “ball,” “blue,” and so on. When Haikonen wires the auditory module to a speech engine, the robot will keep a running monolog about everything it sees and feels.

Haikonen also gives vibration a special significance as “pain,” which preempts other sensory inputs and consumes the robot’s attention. In one demonstration, Haikonen taps the robot and it blurts, “Me hurt.”

“Some people get emotionally disturbed by this, for some reason,” Haikonen says. (He and others are unsentimental about the creations. “I’m never like, ‘Poor robot,’” Verschure says.)

A NEW SPECIES

Building on these early efforts, researchers will develop more lifelike machines. We could see a continuum of conscious systems, just as there is in nature, from amoebas to dogs to chimps to humans and beyond. The gradual progress of this technology is good because it gives us time adjust to the idea that, one day, we won’t be the only advanced beings on the planet.

For a long while, our artificial companions will be vulnerable — more pet than threat. How we treat them will hinge on whether we recognize them as conscious and as capable of suffering.

“The reason that we value non-human animals, to the extent that people do, is that we see, based on our own consciousness, the light of consciousness within them as well,” says Susan Schneider, a philosopher at the University of Connecticut who studies the implications of AI. In fact, she thinks we will deliberately hold back from building conscious machines to avoid the moral dilemmas it poses.

“If you’re building conscious systems and having them work for us, that would be akin to slavery,” Schneider says. By the same token, if we don’t give advanced robots the gift of sentience, it worsens the threat they may eventually pose to humanity because they will see no particular reason to identify with us and value us.

Judging by what we’ve seen so far, conscious machines will inherit our human vulnerabilities. If robots have to anticipate what other robots do, they will treat one another as creatures with agency. Like us, they may start attributing agency to inanimate objects: stuffed animals, carved statues, the wind.

Last year, social psychologists Kurt Gray of the University of North Carolina and the late Daniel Wegner suggested in their book “The Mind Club” that this instinct was the origin of religion. “I would like to see a movie where the robots develop a religion because we have engineered them to have an intentionality prior so that they can be social,” Verschure says. ”But their intentionality prior runs away.”

These machines will vastly exceed our problem-solving ability, but not everything is a solvable problem. The only response they could have to conscious experience is to revel in it, and with their expanded ranges of sensory perception, they will see things people wouldn’t believe.

“I don’t think a future robotic species is going to be heartless and cold, as we sometimes imagine robots to be,” Lipson says. “They’ll probably have music and poetry that we’ll never understand.”

Mankind is closer to discovering extraterrestrial life in our solar system

Extraterrestrial life could be discovered over the next 20 years, but it will not look the way people expect, experts say.

According to astronomer Chris Impey, scientists are on the verge of discovering microbes on other planets, such as the moon of Jupiter, because they contain conditions favorable to the development of life, according to Mail Online.

Although experts have been investigating the sky for decades, they claims that we could detect microbial life for the next 10 or 15 years using the instruments on the James Webb telescope. “I bet everything on the discovery of microbial life in the next 10-15 years, but I cannot guarantee that we will also detect intelligent life forms”, Professor Impey of the University of Arizona said.

The researcher claims that the greatest possibilities for detecting extraterrestrial life are in our solar system. A propitious satellite for such a discovery is Europe, the sixth largest moon of Jupiter, which researchers have recently started studying. The moon has Earth-like features, but it is covered by oceans with frozen salty water because of the distance between the heavenly body and the sun.

NASA and ESA recently announced the launch of a future mission to better understand the celestial bodies covered by water. According to the teacher, studying the atmosphere on these celestial bodies is extremely important for establishing the possibility of alien life.

WHO IS OUT THERE? NEW STUDY REVEALS THE LIKELIHOOD OF INTELLIGENT ALIENS

Jorge Soriano from the City University in New York has said that aliens who are highly intelligent could exist in our galaxy. This is something that Soriano and his colleagues have been arguing about in one of their recent publications.  

TEAM OF SCIENTISTS WANTS TO FIND ANSWER TO FERMI PARADOX

The team of Soriano has been trying to come up with an answer to the Fermi paradox. This is the discrepancy between the chances of there being the chance of the existence of alien life that is intelligent and absence of any proof that is visible. 

The calculations of the scientists have revealed that the percentage of extra-terrestrial civilizations that are intelligent among the possible number of aliens is going to be very small. In fact, the scientists have said that this number would be around 0.5%. Scientists have said that this is the main reason why intelligent aliens have not been observed today.

INTELLIGENT CIVILIZATIONS MAY EXISTED 300,000 YEARS AGO

Soriano and the team have also argued that the alien civilizations that are intelligent may well have existed around 300,000 years ago. In theory, they should have established contact with humans on Earth if they knew about the existence of Earth. The scientists believe that the search for tracks is only going to be possible in the future and this will happen when a larger number of the twins of Earth have been discovered by the advanced telescopes that NASA is using.

In February of this year scientists who had been observing the star system TRAPPIST-1 using the Spitzer Space Telescope of NASA revealed that they had discovered seven planets that were Earth-sized and which they thought were rocky, three of which might have been able to support life.  

There are some experts in the field who have confidence that the coming forward of intelligent aliens is going to be related closely to rather unique living conditions, which the scientists believe can only be found on Earth. There are other astronomers that think that communicating with aliens is not possible due to galactic civilizations disappearing too quickly to be noticed or that they chose to hide the fact that they are around from humans.

How To Get Abducted By Aliens…Inside Tips From Leading Experts!

At the Proof of Aliens website writer Kim Jones has come up with a fabulous list that will dramatically increase your chances of having a “close encounter!” Since the late 1950s, there have literally been millions of claims from people worldwide of being taken by extraterrestrial beings, and they all report some key similarities found in the majority of abductions. These include hours of missing time, gaps in memory, mysterious injuries/scars/implants, disorientation, reproductive issues, and other post-traumatic stress symptoms. And they usually include often onboard a craft and into some kind of operating room where various invasive medical procedures are carried out. The good news is that abductions are said to take place involving men, women, and children regardless of age, culture, or religious backgrounds. Enjoy as they are clever and fun to read!

Here is what Kim Jones wrote: 

Here are some tips that will help you get abducted by aliens if at all they are in need to interact with humans.

1. Try taking a house in the states of California, Wisconsin or Florida. These are the states with the highest number of UFO sighting reports. If the residents of these states do not drink too much alcohol, it is to be understood that these states are the favorite spots for aliens to show up and hence your probabilities of getting abducted are higher if you stay here.

2. If the concepts of the ancient alien theorists are to be believed, aliens are everywhere. You should try to draw their attention by speaking high about aliens and displaying your urge to get abducted by them. You never know if the person sitting at the next table is alien in human disguise and he might just choose you to be the one for his next experimental venture.

3. Aliens love dark places for conducting their abductions. You should try to spend as much time as possible in wheat fields, forests, mountains or lonely countryside.

4. You may consider spending a night or two in the fields of Wiltshire in Southern England. Allegedly these fields are the favorites for the extraterrestrial visitors for making crop circles, their messages to the mankind.

5. Try setting up radar in the backyard and transmit signals to the outer space. You need not be a space scientist to do this. By sending such signals, you can easily make the aliens aware that you are interested in establishing contact with them.

6. Next Halloween, choose the costume of an alien. You never know if your costume matches the actual appearance of our extraterrestrial friends and decide to take you for a quick tour of their planet.

7. Read about aliens as much as you can. By a reading a lot about them, you would be able to identify their signals know more about them. An alien would obviously want to interact with knowledgeable humans and hence, your chances of getting abducted would be higher.

8. If you happen to spot any bright light in the sky or in your yard, try to draw their attention by sending SOS signals by means of strong laser torches. Do not try to use too strong beams of light as they might feel disturbed.

9. Be open to being experimented upon. Aliens abduct humans not for friendly chit chat but for a more serious business that involves physical examinations by the use of multiple probes and machines. If you are not okay with these, you may not stand a chance to get abducted. Remember, aliens can read your mind by means of telepathy.

10. Learn how to manifest the feeling of fear on your face. Aliens love to abduct people who are afraid and try to run away from them. If you do not show signs of fear that would mean that you are willing to get abducted, and they might think you to be a spy and reject you from their abduction list.

These tips are probable ways to get noticed and subsequently abducted by the aliens. There is no guarantee that you would still be abducted, as we do not know what is going on in the super-intelligent minds of the more advanced extraterrestrial beings.

NASA About To Confirm They Have Discovered Alien Life? Or Just More Lies And Waffle?

NASA is apparently primed to reveal its latest set of major discoveries on Monday after scanning planets outside our solar system for life. But many do believe that this could also be yet just more ‘drip feeding’ of disclosure and no real confirmation of anything – Are NASA playing games with us and the TRUTH?

Many people worldwide are now on the edge of their seats amid hopes the new find could shed light on the search for aliens. Although we are used to disappointment from NASA and being given information which does not really confirm anything.

NASA has been questing to find the first traces of life to prove man is not alone in the universe.  Just recently we reported on NASA’s latest find of a solar system similar to ours, where there could be the potential for life – please check out our article below:

The discoveries will come from the team at the Kepler space telescope which looks for habitable worlds outside the Solar System.

The telescope searches for Earth-sized planets in the “habitable zones” of nearby stars – and has found thousands of planets which could harbour life.  Speculation is mounting about the announcement by NASA – which is set for 3pm on Monday, June 19.

Infested with life out there – And does NASA know about it?

 As mentioned in our previous article above, last year, NASA announced the incredible find of nine planets orbiting the star TRAPPIST-1.  Three of the planets were believed to be in the star’s habitable zone and capable of harbouring life.

Scientists are launching a new satellite – the James Webb Telescopes – to study seven of the new worlds! But yet again NASA has not mentioned anything about Alien Beings potentially living on any of these planets and gave excuses as to why that may not be possible (as always!).

A spokesman for NASA said:

“The latest Kepler catalog of planet candidates was created using the most sophisticated analyses yet, yielding the most complete and reliable accounting of distant worlds to date.

“This survey will enable new lines of research in exoplanet study, which looks at planets outside our solar system.”

U.I.P SUMMARY

This is not the first and definitely not the last NASA announcement about their search for habitable planets, but one thing is for sure, these announcements appear to be happening more frequently – The drip feeding of disclosure is intensifying it appears?!

NASA know very well that we are NOT alone in the universe and are also aware that we are being visited by numerous different ET races.  Why do they not just tell us this then if that’s that case, I hear you shout?! Well, it appears that the Elite are scared of people like you and I knowing that there are advanced beings visiting us, as they know the kind of opportunities that will arise once the human race has accepted their existence – the Elites false borders and war mongering will be obliterated very very quickly!

The chances of NASA announcing on Monday is incredibly slim, but please ensure that you listen to their every word, as some where in-between the lines is the TRUTH about what they really know!!!

Please check out below a couple of our recent articles on why the Elite do not want us to know the truth about the ET’s and also an article on ‘Tabbys star’ which is thought to have a huge Alien megastructure around it.

Interesting times people.

SIX USAF ‘FIGHTER JETS’ SPOTTED CHASING MYSTERIOUS RED-ORANGE 30-FOOT SPHERE UFO OVER GEORGIA

JOHNTHOMAS DIDYMUS

UFO researchers are investigating a report by a resident of Ty Ty, southern Georgia, that he sighted a group of United States Air Force (USAF) jets apparently escorting or chasing a red-orange sphere UFO across the sky at an altitude of about 600 feet.

According to the unnamed witness in a testimony filed on March 4, 2017, as Case 82496 in the reporting database of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), he was stargazing with a telescope outside his home at about 10 p.m. on February 21, 2017, in Ty Ty, a town in Tift County, Georgia, about 100 miles east of Columbus, Georgia, when he heard jet engine sounds coming from the north. He looked northwards, in the direction of the jet engine sounds and noticed in the dark sky a row of flashing white strobe lights and a reddish-orange ball or sphere in the middle.

The lights approached gradually at an altitude of about 600 feet until he could see that there were six military “fighter jets” that appeared to be chasing or escorting a mysterious sphere UFO that had a red-orange color, according to Open Minds TV.

“I first heard low speed jet engines north of me,” the witness stated.

“I turned to see what it was. I saw a row of flashing white strobe lights with a reddish-orange ball or sphere in the middle coming toward me moving real slow.”

The witness was stunned but he had the presence of mind to notice several interesting details about the flight. As the military jets and the mysterious sphere UFO flew overhead, he noticed that one of the escorting jets flew about 500 feet to the west of the UFO while the other flew about 500 feet to the east. Four other jets brought up the rear, flying at about 1,000 feet behind the UFO.

He was also struck by the low altitude of the flight and the unusually slow speed of the jets and the UFO.

“What was so strange about it was how low and slow they were all flying and flew directly over the top of me.”

He estimated the diameter of the reddish-orange sphere UFO at about 30 feet. It had no strobe lights.

As the crafts flew directly overhead, the jet flying 500 feet to the west of the UFO did a banking turn to the left until it was positioned behind the sphere UFO. The witness then watched as the formation flew overhead until it disappeared behind a row of trees about a mile away to the south. The witnesrecalled that the UFO and the escorting military jets continued flying southwards in a straight path until they were hidden from sight by the row of trees.

The witness had thought that the crafts were flying towards Moody Air Force Base, but he later realized that they couldn’t have been approaching the air force base because the base was located southeast while the jets and the UFOs had flown “straight south” until they were out of sight.

“I don’t know of any airport that would have been straight south or me,”

he said.

“Any help on this ordeal would be more than I have now.”

MUFON’s representatives in Georgia investigated the case and concluded that the sighting was clearly an “Unknown Other sighting event.” The investigators observed that although the witness was able to easily recognize six USAF fighter jets, he was unable to identify the 30-foot-diameter sphere UFO. According to the witness, the sphere UFO was unlike any man-made flying craft he had ever seen.

“The evidence clearly leads to the conclusion that this is an Unknown Other sighting event,” the investigators wrote in their report.

“However, the 30-foot, glowing, reddish-orange orb was being escorted by very recognizable jet planes.”

The investigators were also unable to confirm whether the pilots knew what the orb was and whether it was a USAF experimental craft. They were also unable to determine the destination of the crafts.

Unexplained Ancient Spaceship Artifacts Discoveries  - Could ancient man fly?

Here are some mysterious out of place spaceship artifacts ever discovered from the ancient world.

Including blueprints for a Medieval multi-stage solid-fuel rocket, instructions for an unexplained flying machine passed on by a 10,000-year-old Indian guru,the unidentified "Toprakkale Space Shuttle" that may have been carved 2,500 years ago, schematics from a mysterious craft encountered by Ezekiel as described in the bible, and the lid from Pakal's Tomb that appears to show the Mayan king as an astronaut.

Last August, China launched, quite literally, one of its most ambitious communications projects ever: a “quantum satellite”, aimed at being able to offer a penultimately secure transfer of data across great distances between Earth and space.

As of Friday, June 17, 2017, it has been announced that China’s quantum satellite successfully relayed communication over a distance of 746 miles, marking a transmission that is 12 times further than any previous similar dispatch on record, Chinese state media agencies reported.

According to Reuters, “The scientists exploited the phenomenon of quantum entanglement, in which a particle can affect a far-off twin instantly, somehow overcoming the long distance separating them, a situation termed ‘spooky action at a distance’ by the Nobel-prize winning physicist Albert Einstein.”

In 1935, Einstein realized that objects can be moved or reoriented at a distance, even without physical contact with other objects. This unusual discovery (noted for its weirdness at the time by Einstein and his colleagues) led to development of the EPR paradox, which Einstein introduced shortly thereafter with Boris Poldolsky and Nathan Rosen.

In 2013, according to research conducted by Professor Juan Yin at China’s University of Science and Technology in Shanghai, quantum entanglement dynamics allows transfer of information at speeds at least 10,000 times faster than the speed of light.

Xinhua reported that the technology currently represents “the only way to establish secure keys between two distant locations on earth without relying on trustful relay,” according to lead scientist Pan Jianwei, of China’s Quantum Experiments at Space Scale, or QUESS.

Earlier in June, the Pentagon acknowledged a statement that China’s quantum satellite represents, “a notable advance in cryptography research.” Borrowing from Neil Armstrong’s famous quote, China’s success with the quantum satellite represents “one small step” for communication, for now at least.

In the future, this innovation may represent the first significant advancement toward global networks of secure, speedy communications occurring at the quantum level.

MYSTERIEUZE ZAKEN ROND DE TEMPELBERG, ISRAEL ( VIDEO )

Eén van de meest spraakmakende en ook ontzagwekkende plekken ter wereld is de Tempelberg in Jeruzalem. 

Laat er nu precies op die plek de afgelopen jaren zich een aantal vreemde zaken hebben voorgedaan die verband kunnen houden met CERN of met de buitenaardse Goden. 

Voor diegenen die niet weten wat de Tempelberg is een kleine samenvatting.

De Tempelberg of de berg Moria, door joden Har ha-Bayit en door moslims Haram al-Sharif genoemd, is een heuvel in het oostelijk deel van de door Israël bezette en geannexeerde oude stad Jeruzalem (in Oost-Jeruzalem), die voor elk van de drie abrahamitische religies (jodendom, christendom en islam) van groot belang is. De Haram es-Sharif wordt beheerd door een islamitische waqf, een religieuze stichting. 

De bovenzijde van de berg is onder Herodes de Grote vlak gemaakt en vormt een plein met een oppervlakte van ongeveer 15 hectare. Midden op dit tempelplein staat de Rotskoepel, en aan de zuidzijde de Al-Aqsamoskee, gebouwd door de Omajjaden. Tevens bevinden zich hier meerdere islamitische bouwwerken, waaronder de Dome of the Chain, de Kettingkoepel. 

De Westmuur (ook wel Klaagmuur genoemd) is een gedeelte van de westelijke muur dat het plateau omringt onder het niveau van het tempelplein en vormt mede het fundament waarop de Rotskoepel en de Al-Aqsamoskee staan. Vanaf het plein aan de Westmuur, waar tot 1967 de Marokkaanse wijk lag, loopt nu de houten Mughrabibrug omhoog, vanwaar men via de Mughrabipoort toegang heeft tot het tempelplein. Voor niet-moslims is dit de enige manier om de Tempelberg te bereiken. 

Vorig jaar bezocht een vrouw deze Tempelberg en zij zag een paar merkwaardige dingen in de lucht en niet alleen dat, ze kreeg er ook een heel akelig gevoel bij. 

Ze maakte een aantal foto’s en zegt dat ze niet alleen een soort vreemde cirkelvormige wolk ontdekte, maar ook drie verschillende zonnen zag.

Van de drie “zonnen” die zij zag lijkt de kleinste op een lensflare, maar naast de zon is inderdaad een tweede lichtbron te zien en ook zie je de contouren van een soort cirkelvormige chemtrail. (Redactie: De dame verklaart in de video dat ze dingen met het blote oog zag maar we zijn er niet zeker van of dat ook met deze 3 zonnen het geval was.)

In de onderstaande video doet de vrouw haar verhaal en vertelt de verslaggever dat zij ervan overtuigd is dat we hier te maken hebben met een fenomeen dat waarschijnlijk is veroorzaakt door CERN omdat zij nu ook beschikken over een soort filiaal in Jordanië, Sesame genaamd. 

In het kader van de samenwerking met CERN claimt zij verder dat de koning van Jordanië een enorme generator heeft geïnstalleerd op de Tempelberg, waarvan zij zegt dat deze ook een rol speelt in de totstandkoming van de taferelen in de lucht. 

Het is een bizarre situatie rondom die Tempelberg, want de koning van Jordanië zou dit inderdaad kunnen doen. 

Net als de andere wijken van de Oude Stad in Oost-Jeruzalem, heeft Israël het gebied van de Tempelberg geannexeerd. Het beheer ervan is gebleven bij de Jordaanse islamitische waqf, een religieuze stichting. In 1988 erkende Israël de bevoegdheid van koning Hoessein van Jordanië om het toezicht op de heiligdommen op de Tempelberg te blijven behouden.

 

Dat CERN een honderd procent satanisch instituut is dat heel goed in staat zou zijn om bovengenoemde effecten te veroorzaken, staat buiten kijf. 

Maar, gezien de bijzondere locatie is er wellicht ook nog een andere mogelijkheid en dat is dat er misschien toch ook een verband bestaat met de Goden uit de oudheid. Deze Goden, de Anunnaki, die nu met de nadering van hun planeet Nibirusteeds dichter in onze buurt komen. 

In de video zegt de vrouw op een gegeven moment het volgende:

Lichtstralen die vanuit de Tempelberg lijken te komen en de lucht in schijnen.

Volgens Nancy Lieder waren de piramides navigatiebakens voor de Annunaki en het is dan ook geen toeval dat deze piramides met de komst van Nibiru de afgelopen jaren weer tot leven zijn gekomen. 

Op een bijzondere manier, want verschillende keren zijn er de laatste jaren opnames gemaakt van piramides die een felle lichtstraal de hemel insturen zoals de volgende:

Heeft de Tempelberg misschien in een ver verleden ook een rol gespeeld bij de aanwezigheid van de Goden op aarde. Wordt er ook in de Tempelberg iets geactiveerd, net zoals bij de piramides? 

In 2011 vond er nog een merkwaardig voorval plaats op de Tempelberg. Een gebeurtenis die door talloze mensen is gezien en vastgelegd en waarvan de mainstream-media niet wisten hoe snel ze dit tot hoax moesten verklaren. 

Op 28 januari 2011 daalde ’s avonds een UFO neer boven de Rotskoepel op de berg en schoot even later met een onvoorstelbare snelheid weer de lucht in. 

Voor de mainstream wereld zou het hier gaan om een hoax, in elkaar gezet door iemand die met zijn video zoveel mogelijk bezoekers wilde trekken om hiermee geld te verdienen, maar de werkelijkheid ligt ook hier zoals zo vaak wat anders. 

Er is namelijk niet één opname van dit fenomeen gemaakt, maar meerdere, door verschillende mensen en vanaf verschillende posities. De kans dat deze opnames echt zijn, is dan ook veel groter dan dat ze allemaal nep zouden zijn. 

Bovendien zijn er nog meer merkwaardigheden, zoals te zien in de volgende video:

DISCOVERED: MYSTERIOUS ARTIFACTS DEPICTING AN ANCIENT SPACESHIP

There are many mysterious artifacts that have been found around the world which resembles spaceships - but they date back to thousands of years ago. Intriguing, is it not? The first on the list is the most recently discovered, named "Toprakkale Space Shuttle".  

It was only recently discovered after 25 years in storage at the Istanbul Archaeology Museum, which has caused many scientists and archaeologists to question its authenticity. It is, however, said to be dated back 2,500 years ago. The "spaceship" is a detailed sculpture from the kingdom of Urartu, and it specifically shows four thrusters that surround one large one, and a pilot seat in the front, very much like the modern jets we have today.

TOPRAKKALE'S SPACE SHUTTLE

The second on the list is Ezekiel's Spaceships - NASA engineer Josef Blumrich much was out to disprove the conspiracy that the prophet Ezekiel saw an "alien spaceship" rather than a vision of God. However, he later changed his stance on the issue and believed the very stand he once set out to destroy - that Ezekiel saw an "alien spaceship". He later then published his theory in a book, called "The Spaceships of Ezekiel" in 1974. His engineering background coupled with his analysis of the Bible led him to draw detailed figures of the "alien spaceship", which was also published into the book.

The last alien spaceship on the list is The Sibiu Manuscript. Back in 1961, a professor at the University of Bucharest in Romania rediscovered this ancient manuscript, which was a document that was 450 pages long that was created back in 1570 with encompasses several hundred years of history within the region where it was from. The manuscript, although dating back hundred of years ago, had shockingly detailed steps that described solid-fueled manned-rockets. A description of a successful launch of a giant "flying javelin" was also included in the manuscript.

This is not all that has been found regarding "ancient" spaceships that civilizations before us might have already discovered.

Tom Michael The Sun

A ROSWELL conspiracy theory “expert” has claimed to have found proof the supposed UFO crash really did happen.

Heather Wade insists she has got her hands on an “ultra top secret” report confirming the fabled alien encounter in the desert of New Mexico, USA, was real, The Sun reported.

Wade says she got the US Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) document from an unnamed source, according to The Express.

She claims the dossier details how the UFO came down on July 2 or 3, 1947.

Wade — who hosts a late night online radio show focusing on the paranormal — claims the documents describe how four decomposing alien bodies were found two miles from the crash site a week later.

The radio host said she passed the report on to Stanton Friedman — a nuclear physicist who is also a Roswell believer and investigator.

All four aliens died in the crash.

Source:News Corp Australia

The supposed government report states: “Aerial reconnaissance discovered that four small human-like beings had apparently ejected from the craft at some point before it exploded. “These had fallen to earth at least two miles east of the crash site where the wreckage was located.

“All of the four alien crew members were dead and badly decomposed.”

A statement on the website for her radio show, Midnight in the Desert, reads: “Heather Wade received documents last night from a trusted source.

“She immediately had Stanton Friedman take a look at these documents who said, ‘I have never seen anything like this, this is new MJ12 information.’

“Stanton Friedman is going to continue examining these documents for authenticity, but at this time we can find no evidence of forgery.”

This story was first published on The Sun.

Aliens: Are We Alone?

Does alien life exist? Scientists are closer than ever to finding out thanks to the Kepler Space Telescope. This revolutionary spacecraft is on a mission to find habitable alien planets.
