Kan een afbeelding zijn van hond

Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    UFO's of UAP'S in België en de rest van de wereld
    In België had je vooral BUFON of het Belgisch UFO-Netwerk, dat zich met UFO's bezighoudt. BEZOEK DUS ZEKER VOOR ALLE OBJECTIEVE INFORMATIE , enkel nog beschikbaar via Facebook en deze blog. Verder heb je ook het Belgisch-Ufo-meldpunt en Caelestia, die prachtig, doch ZEER kritisch werk leveren, ja soms zelfs héél sceptisch... Voor Nederland kan je de mooie site www.ufowijzer.nl bezoeken van Paul Harmans. Een mooie site met veel informatie en artikels. MUFON of het Mutual UFO Network Inc is een Amerikaanse UFO-vereniging met afdelingen in alle USA-staten en diverse landen. MUFON's mission is the analytical and scientific investigation of the UFO- Phenomenon for the benefit of humanity... Je kan ook hun site bekijken onder www.mufon.com. Ze geven een maandelijks tijdschrift uit, namelijk The MUFON UFO-Journal. Since 02/01/2020 is Pieter ex-president (=voorzitter) of BUFON, but also ex-National Director MUFON / Flanders and the Netherlands. We work together with the French MUFON Reseau MUFON/EUROP. ER IS EEN NIEUWE GROEPERING DIE ZICH BUFON NOEMT, MAAR DIE HEBBEN NIETS MET ONZE GROEP TE MAKEN. DEZE COLLEGA'S GEBRUIKEN DE NAAM BUFON VOOR HUN SITE... Ik wens hen veel succes met de verdere uitbouw van hun groep. Zij kunnen de naam BUFON wel geregistreerd hebben, maar het rijke verleden van BUFON kunnen ze niet wegnemen...

    Planet 10? Another Earth-Size World May Lurk in the Outer Solar System

    A planet-size object may be orbiting the sun in the icy reaches of the solar system beyond Pluto.

    Scientists at the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory (LPL) have determined that an unseen object with a mass somewhere between that of Earth and Mars could be lurking in the Kuiper Belt, a region beyond Neptune filled with thousands of icy asteroids, comets and dwarf planets.

    In In January 2016, a separate group of scientists predicted the existence of a Neptune-size planet orbiting the sun far, far beyond Pluto  about 25 times farther from the sun than Pluto is. This hypothetical planet was dubbed "Planet Nine," so if both predictions are correct, one of these putative objects could be the solar system's 10th planet.

    The so-called "planetary-mass object" described by the scientists from LPL appears to affect the orbits of a population of icy space rocks in the Kuiper Belt. Distant Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) have tilted orbits around the sun. The tilted orbital planes of most KBOs average out to something called the invariable plane of the solar system.

    But the orbits of the most distant KBOs tilt away from the invariable plane by an average of 8 degrees, which signals the presence of a more massive object that warps its surroundings with its gravitational field, researchers said in a study due to be published in The Astronomical Journal.

    "The most likely explanation for our results is that there is some unseen mass," Kat Volk, a postdoctoral fellow at LPL and the lead author of the study, said in a statement. "According to our calculations, something as massive as Mars would be needed to cause the warp that we measured."

    These KBOs act a lot like spinning tops, Renu Malhotra, a professor of planetary sciences at LPL and co-author of the new study, said in the statement.

    "Imagine you have lots and lots of fast-spinning tops, and you give each one a slight nudge … If you then take a snapshot of them, you will find that their spin axes will be at different orientations, but on average, they will be pointing to the local gravitational field of Earth," she said. "We expect each of the KBOs' orbital tilt angle to be at a different orientation, but on average, they will be pointing perpendicular to the plane determined by the sun and the big planets."

    It may sound a lot like the mysterious Planet Nine, but the researchers say the so-called planetary-mass object is too small, and too close, to be the same thing. Planet Nine lies 500 to 700 astronomical units (AU) from Earth, and its mass is about 10 times that of Earth. (One AU is the average distance at which Earth orbits the sun — 93 million miles, or 150 million kilometers. Pluto orbits the sun at a maximum distance of just less than 50 AU.)

    "That is too far away to influence these KBOs," Volk said. "It certainly has to be much closer than 100 AU to substantially affect the KBOs in that range."

    Though no planet-size objects have been spotted in the Kuiper Belt so far, the researchers are optimistic that the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), which is currently under construction in Chile, will help find these hidden worlds. "We expect LSST to bring the number of observed KBOs from currently about 2,000 to 40,000," Malhotra said.

    "There are a lot more KBOs out there — we just have not seen them yet," Malhotra added. "Some of them are too far and dim even for LSST to spot, but because the telescope will cover the sky much more comprehensively than current surveys, it should be able to detect this object, if it's out there."

    Groot-Brittannië geeft eindelijk geheime UFO-files vrij, maar houdt meerdere achter. Wat hebben ze te verbergen?

    Topgeheime X-Files over UFO’s eindelijk vrijgegeven. Waarom is de overheid zo bang als een klein kind in het donker?

    De documenten, die zijn gepubliceerd door het Britse Nationaal Archief, bevatten details over UFO-waarnemingen die in heel Groot-Brittannië zijn gedaan.

    Ze bevatten informatie over incidenten die naar verluidt gerelateerd zijn aan buitenaardsen, waaronder een incident in Rendlesham Forest in 1980, dat ook wel het Britse Roswell wordt genoemd.

    Achtergehouden

    Dat jaar zagen soldaten die waren gestationeerd op vliegbases Bentwaters en Woodbridge vreemde lichten in het bos.

    Vreemd genoeg zijn de documenten nog niet gedigitaliseerd, dus als je ze wilt inzien moet je naar het Nationaal Archief in Londen gaan.

    De stukken zouden al in 2013 geopenbaard worden, maar 18 specifieke documenten werden om onduidelijke redenen achtergehouden.

    Doofpot

    In de afgelopen negen jaar heeft het Britse ministerie van Defensie meerdere keren UFO-files vrijgegeven. Drie documenten zijn nog altijd geheim.

    Volgens sommigen is er sprake van een doofpot rond het bestaan van buitenaards leven.

    “Het ministerie van Defensie vertelde het parlement, de media en het publiek dat er geen defensiebelang mee gemoeid was en dat het beperkt geïnteresseerd was in het UFO-fenomeen,” zei Nick Pope, die tussen 1991 en 1994 het UFO-project van het ministerie leidde.

    Achter de schermen

    “De stukken laten zien dat we het onderwerp achter de schermen een stuk serieuzer namen dan we deden voorkomen en dat er in veel gevallen wel degelijk een defensiebelang mee gemoeid was,” voegde hij toe.

    Zo werden UFO’s gezien vlak bij legerbases, door RAF-piloten en opgepikt door luchtverkeersleiders.

    Hacktivist group says NASA could soon reveal alien life

    Could alien life really be out there?

    BY 

    Radio Telescope Under The Milky Way, Galaxy

    A lot of people think there could be intelligent life out there somewhere

    Hacktivist group Anonymous has released a YouTube video in which it claims NASA could soon announce the discovery of alien life.

    Anonymous is known around the world for its work. In the past, it's taken on the likes of Isis, Donald Trump, and Westboro Baptist Church – the small American religious group that campaigns against homosexuality.

    In it's latest video, Anonymous states that a NASA spokesperson called Professor Thomas Zurbuchen told a recent US Science, Space, and Technology committee meeting that extraterrestrial life could soon be proven.

    Alien like patterns in the auroras
    What if there are two Donald Trumps? 

    "Our civilisation is on the verge of discovering evidence of alien life in the cosmos," Zurbuchen supposedly said.

    "Taking into account all of the different activities and missions that are searching for alien life, we are on the verge of making one of the most profound, unprecedented discoveries in history."

    Anonymous has also written about alien life on its website. It said: "The evidence sure seems to imply that something is going on in the skies above.

    "It would cost a lot for spaceships and a continuous flow of taxes and black budget dollars could imply a rational that there is more than meets the eye and or that of public knowledge."

    Obviously, this is speculation. At present, there's no evidence – at least none we know of – that proves the existence of alien life. But many think it's a possibility.

    Last week, NASA discovered 219 new planets, ten of which are rocky planets possibly not all that dissimilar to Earth. Although these planets are in the solar system's 'Goldilocks Zon'e, which means they're too hot or cold to be habitable.

    ‘Flying saucers’ became a thing 70 years ago Saturday with sighting near Mount Rainier

    Kenneth Arnold, shown in 1966 with a drawing of a flying saucer, reportedly spent “many long hours of fruitless flying with a camera, trying and failing to find anything like his saucers again.” (AP)
    This image from a 1952 issue of Coronet Magazine shows an illustration depicting Kenneth Arnold’s sighting.  (Coronet Magazine)
    This image from a 1952 issue of Coronet Magazine shows an illustration depicting Kenneth Arnold’s sighting.
    (Coronet Magazine)

    Seventy years ago, Idaho pilot Kenneth Arnold saw something near Mount Rainier that brought the term “flying saucers” into the lexicon. It was the viral story of its day. What he saw remains a mystery.

    Before June 24, 1947, terms such as UFOs and flying saucers had not entered popular vocabulary. Then, on that afternoon 70 years ago, it all changed because of Kenneth Arnold:

    “Supersonic Flying Saucers Sighted by Idaho Pilot.”

    Arnold reported seeing near Mount Rainier nine “circular-type” objects flying in formation at more than twice the speed of sound.

    His was the first widely reported UFO sighting in this country, and it set off a wave of other reported sightings.

    Arnold would pay the price for describing something so fantastic.

    In a now-declassified document, the Air Force Materiel Command wrote it off: “The report cannot bear even superficial examination, therefore, must be disregarded.”

    Another Air Force document concluded, “It is the Air Force conclusion that the objects of this sighting were due to a mirage.”

    For Arnold, it stung.

    He didn’t consider himself some kind of kook. He had over 4,000 hours of mountain high-altitude pilot time; he was in the Idaho search and rescue.

    “I have been subjected to ridicule, much loss of time and money, newspaper notoriety, magazine stories, reflections on my honesty, my character, my business dealings,” Arnold wrote in his 1952 book, “Coming of the Saucers.”

    A long time ago, in 1977, I interviewed Arnold after reaching him by phone.

    He died in 1984 at age 68, and in all those years, and with me, he never wavered in his descriptions.

    “I made my report because I thought it was my duty. It was the only proper and American thing to do. I saw what I saw,” he said.

    You can draw a direct line between what Arnold repeatedly recounted in detail to FBI and military investigators and our collective fascination with the possibility that aliens have visited us.

    That direct connection goes from Area 51 allegedly hiding an alien craft, to the Roswell UFO Incident; and from movies such as “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” to the TV series “The X-Files.”

    It’s become so much a part of our culture that even the CIA website has a section titled “Take a Peek Into Our “X-Files” that is chock-full of declassified files.

    The CIA helpfully lists “Top 5 CIA Documents Mulder Would Love To Get His Hands On,” and “Top 5 CIA Documents Scully Would Love To Get Her Hands On.”

    Interested in a 1952 drawing of “flying saucers over Belgian Congo uranium mines?” It’s in the CIA files.

    Unassuming salesman

    Arnold was an unlikely candidate to become embroiled in such a controversy.

    He lived in Meridian, Idaho, and sold fire-extinguishing equipment. About as unusual as his life got was that he piloted a small airplane to get to his clients around the Northwest.

    A month after Arnold was in the news, a now-declassified report made in July 1947 by Army Air Force Counter-Intelligence Corps Officer Frank M. Brown said, “Mr. Arnold is a man of 32 years of age, being married and the father of two children … It is the personal opinion of the interviewer that Mr. Arnold actually saw what he saw … To go further, if Mr. Arnold can write a report of the character that he did while not having seen the objects that he claimed he saw, it is the opinion of the interviewer that Mr. Arnold is in the wrong business, that he should be writing Buck Rogers fiction.”

    That was one of the few sympathetic portrayals in government documents of Arnold’s sighting.

    In another declassified intelligence report in July 1947, First Lt. Hal L. Eustace of the Army Air Corps put Arnold’s report as part of “silly-season episodes.”

    The lieutenant wrote that Arnold “seems to be reasonably well balanced, although excitable, and has no apparent ulterior motive … other than to prove he is not ‘nuts.’ ”

    The lieutenant wrote that Arnold revealed “an antagonistic attitude toward the Army” by stating, “Well, if the Army doesn’t know what they are, it sure ought to be trying to find out!”

    Bright flash lit the sky

    Arnold’s sighting of the craft was the 1947 version of a story going viral.

    “It was a beautiful day. Just as clear as a bell,” Arnold said. He was flying from Chehalis to Yakima and decided to spend an hour or so searching for a downed C-46 Marine transport that had crashed into the southwest side of Mount Rainier.

    There was a $5,000 reward for finding it.

    It was at 3 p.m., he remembered, “when a very bright flash lit up the plane and the sky around me.”

    At first, Arnold thought it was the sun reflecting off another plane.

    “But the flash happened again, and that’s when I saw where it was coming from. It came spasmodically from a chain of nine circular-type aircraft way up from the vicinity of Mount Rainier,” said Arnold.

    “… I could not find any tails on these things. They didn’t leave a jet trail behind them. I judged their size to be at least 100 feet in widespan. I thought it was a new type of missile.”

    His plane had a big sweep 24-hour clock on the instrument panel. Arnold measured that the craft covered the distance between Mount Rainier and Mount Adams in 1 minute 42 seconds.

    “That figured out to something like 1,760 miles an hour, which I could hardly believe. I knew that figure couldn’t be entirely accurate, but I’d say it was within a couple of hundred miles accurate,” he said.

    From Yakima, Arnold then flew to an air show in Pendleton, Oregon. The next day, on June 25, he stopped by the local newspaper, the East Oregonian. He wanted to know if the military had been testing secret warplanes in the area.

    He ended up talking to reporter Bill Bequette, who, in subsequent years, remembered that Arnold “came off as honest, level headed and credible,” said a story in the East Oregonian.

    So Bequette wrote a brief story about what Arnold said he witnessed.

    But the brief also went out to The Associated Press, got picked up by numerous newspapers, and the furor began. For the first time, a mass-media story and subsequent headlines used the term, “flying saucers.”

    There were no reported riches for Arnold because of his notoriety. Instead, he complained to Frank Brown, the Air Force investigator, “that his business had suffered greatly … at every stop in his business routes, large groups of people were waiting to question him …”

    Brown concluded his report, “Mr. Arnold stated further that if he, at any time in the future, saw anything in the sky, to quote Mr. Arnold … ‘If I ever saw a ten story building flying through the air I would never say a word about it,’ due to the fact that he has been ridiculed by the press to such an extent that he is practically a moron in the eye of the majority of the population of the United States.”

    A mystery to this day

    Despite that statement to Brown, in the coming years Arnold was driven to prove he was right.

    There were “many long hours of fruitless flying with a camera, trying and failing to find anything like his saucers again,” says Martin Shough, a well-regarded researcher of the UFO phenomena who has written a detailed analysis of Arnold’s account.

    In an email, Shough, who lives in the Highlands of Scotland, says, “I am resigned to never knowing what Arnold saw.”

    He concludes, “Seventy years on, when so much of the flying saucer mythology that Kenneth Arnold triggered has been explained away, it is somewhat embarrassing that Arnold’s own sighting remains obstinately resistant.

    “But there it is.”

    Berwyn Mountains UFO Crash: 43 years on, it's still a mystery

    January 23 marks the 43th anniversary of the night many claim a UFO crashed into a hillside in North Wales. We look back at the 'Welsh Roswell'

    BY 

    A UFO allegedly crashed into Berwyn Mountains in January, 1974A

    UFO allegedly crashed into Berwyn Mountains in January, 1974

    On January 23, 1974, people reported hearing a huge bang, felt earth tremors and saw a brilliant light in the sky above the Berwyn Mountains. Families in the villages of Llandderfel and Llandrillo were settling down to watch TV when an explosion was heard and the ground shook. It measured 3.5 on the Richter scale. As people ran from their homes fearing another tremor, they saw a blaze of light on the mountainside.

    A nurse who believed an aircraft had crashed drove to the site and saw a pulsating orange and red glow on the hillside and other lights.

     Police converged on the area and emergency services were put on standby. Although searches were undertaken, officially nothing was found – leading to claims of a cover-up.

     In the four decades since there has been a huge debate as to what exactly happened that night, with TV documentaries made and books written on the subject.

     Some researchers have claimed a UFO crashed, with further claims “bodies” were retrieved and taken away by soldiers. Other theories suggest it was a meteor shower combined with an earthquake – the epicentre of which was at Bala Lake – and the misperception of poachers on the hillside carrying lamps.

     Over the years more information has surfaced which has added to the enigma. In 2008 the Daily Post acquired official documents showing how Gwynedd Police were bombarded with calls and eye witness accounts of the strange event, with some convinced they had seen a UFO. They gave a fascinating insight into what was going on that night.

    Did aliens crash into Berwyn Mountains?
    Did aliens crash into Berwyn Mountains?

    Gwynedd Police Constabulary Major Incident Log – explosion – 21.10pm PC receiving 999 calls of UFO.

    A witness who saw an object on the hillside said in a statement: “Saw bright red light, like coal fire red. Large perfect circle. Like a big bonfire. Could see lights above and to the right and white lights moving to bottom. Light changed colour to yellowish white and back again.”

    A message in a police log said: “There’s been a large explosion in the area and there is a large fire in the mountainside. I can see the fire where I am.”

    Telex message to chief constable Gwynedd constabulary. 22.00pm approx 23/1/74: Saw bright green lights, object with tail – travelling west. Saw about Bangor direction – dropped down.

    At approx 10pm on 23/1/74: Saw a circular light in the sky at an estimated height of 1,500 feet. This object exploded and pieces fell to the ground. Mr ...... estimates the pieces would have fallen into the sea between Rhyl and Liverpool.

     In 2010 key witness, retired nurse Pat Evans, insisted she saw something strange on the mountainside. At the time she said: “It (the object) couldn’t have got there any other way apart from being flown there, so it had to be a UFO of some sort. I’m talking about something that could only have got there by flying and landing.”

     Ms Evans, who was living in Llandderfel, near Bala, added: “We just saw this huge ball glowing and pulsating on the mountain. Some lights seemed to be scattered around it and I just wish we’d stayed to see what the end result was – whether it would just disappear or fly away.

     “We didn’t see anybody on the road even though there were various reports that we were told to go away by armed police and military etc, which was all totally untrue.

     “We’d heard an almighty bang and we live at the foot of the mountain. I thought it might have been a plane crash. Me being a nurse and my girls being in St John (Ambulance), I thought we could help.”

     She told how the object glowed orange, red and yellow and was “moon like, but without windows or doors”. Mrs Evans added: “I’ve never seen anything like it before or since. I have no idea what it was.”

     A document from the Maritime and Coastguard Agency revealed a military operation, codenamed Photoflash, was scheduled for that evening. It involved about 10 military aircraft and a series of powerful flashes across the North Wales coast and Liverpool Bay.

     The MCA letter said: “During the late afternoon and early evening of 23rd January 1974 there was an exercise from Jerby Range on the Isle of Man. The exercise was called ‘Photoflash’ and coastguards were advised to expect at least 10 aircraft taking part and at least 80 flashes around the Liverpool Bay area and the North Wales coastline.”

     There was no more information from official sources on that specific exercise and if it was connected to Berwyn. A spokesman at the RAF Museum Research Department suggested photoflash operations were used for training exercises to illuminate the ground below.

     But the mystery still remains. Researcher Russ Kellett still believes the answer is out there: “I have been researching this for years and I am convinced there was more than one UFO involved that night,” he said. “All the evidence that we have uncovered over the years has consistently pointed that way.”

    The Event Is Coming Soon - The World’s First Hoverbike is Ready to Ride

    byPaul Seaburn


    Start saving your bitcoins (or whatever it is you do to accumulate a sizeable pile of them). If your bucket list includes being the first on your block to own an operational and really cool hoverbike, your wait is over. The Russian startup company Hoversurf announced it has achieved its goal of …
    Making flying as easy as riding a bike.
    OK, a really dangerous bike, but that’s why you want one, right? The Scorpion-3 was unveiled this week by Hoversurf in a warehouse at its headquarters in San Francisco. The company – whose motto is “Aim high” (with an implied “Kids, don’t try this at home”) – began as a manufacturer of heavy-lift cargo drones with carrying capacities ranging from 90 to 2,500 kg. (198 to 5511 lbs.). That should be good news for the ‘bigger biker’, right?

    Not quite. While based on the same platform as the cargo drones, the Scorpion-3 has a weight limit of 266 pounds of “amateur and professional navigators.” That’s a code phrase for ‘extreme sports enthusiasts’ and other adrenaline addicts who can ride a fast bike AND deal with it being 33 feet (10 meters) off the ground – the current restricted altitude limit.


    Well, “fast” is relative – the top speed of the Scorpion-3 is currently restricted to 33 mph (53 kmph) but that undoubtedly seems a lot faster when flying. Hoversurf says its engineers used a standard motorbike design to make it easy for riders with cycle experience to handle the Scorpion-3. For lift and thrust, an electric motor powers the quadcopter propellers taken from the drone platform and can reportedly keep the Scorpion-3 aloft for 27 minutes – more than enough time to generate enough excitement to require a change of pants.

    FBI Archives: We’ve Been Visited By Beings From a Parallel World

    Conspiracies

    While most people are clinched into a worldwide debate about aliens, discussing UFO sightings in space, on Earth, and the sheer number of whistleblowers who have come forward saying that we aren’t alone in the universe, the FBI has a very interesting document posted on their website.

    The declassified document states that not only have we’ve been visited by ET, apparently we’ve been visited by “beings from other dimensions.”

    However, it is noteworthy to mention that the document itself DID NOT ORIGINATE within the FBI. The document –which is an extract from a 69-page document called ufo1.pdf— was written by a former university head.

    Nevertheless, the document was treated with great importance by the FBI, which is something I find VERY interesting.

    The official link from the FBI vault can be found here: http://vault.fbi.gov/UFO/UFO%20Part%201%20of%2016/view



    A rewritten copy of the report can be found below. (NOTE) some words in the original text are illegible due to the numerous notations and stamps.

    The document, which was received on July 8, 1947, states:

    This memorandum is respectfully addressed to certain scientists of distinction, to important aeronautical and military authorities, to a number of public officials and to a few publications. The writer has little expectation that anything of import will be accomplished by this gesture. The mere fact that the data here-in were obtained by so-called supernormal means is probably sufficient to ensure its disregard by nearly all the persons addressed: nevertheless it seems a public duty to make it available. (The present writer has several university degrees and was formerly a university department head).

    A very serious situation may develop at any time with regard to the “flying saucers”. If one of these should be attacked, the attacking plane will almost certainly be destroyed. In the public mind, this might create near panic and international suspicion. The principal data concerning these craft is now at hand and must be offered, no matter how fantastic and unintelligible it may seem to minds not previously instructed in thinking of this type.


      1. Part of the disks carry crews, others are under remote control.Their mission is peaceful. The visitors contemplate settling on this plane.
      2. These visitors are human-like but much larger in size.
      3. They are not excarnate Earth people but come from their own world.
      4. They do NOT come from a planet as we use the word, but from an etheric planet which interpenetrates with our own and is not perceptible to us.
      5. The bodies of the visitors, and the craft, automatically materialize on entering the vibratory rate of our dense matter.
      6. The disks possess a type of radiant energy or a ray, which will easily disintegrate any attacking ship. They reenter the etheric at will, and so simply disappear from our vision, without a trace.
      7. The region from which they come is not the “astral plane”, but corresponds to the Lokas or Talas. Students of esoteric matters will understand these terms.
      8. They probably cannot be reached by radio, but probably can be by radar. if a signal system can be devised for that apparatus.

    We give information and warning and can do no more. Let the newcomers be treated with every kindness. Unless the disks are with-(illegible) a (illegible, illegible) with which our culture and science are incapable of dealing. A heavy responsibility rests upon the few in authority who are able to understand this matter.

    This Gatorade Ad Made a Human Using Water and Photos Instead of CGI

    This incredibly creative ad from Gatorade uses a “liquid printer” and precision-timed strobe photography to create a stop-motion athlete from drops of water. What’s more, it was created entirely in-camera, according to the company.

    The video starts off with a human figure being pumped out of a water printer. Okay, that’s pretty cool, but water printers are nothing new. But then the figure jogs over to a box and starts doing box jumps, with water splashing as its feet hit the box.

    The figure stands and starts kicking a punching bag, which recoils with each strike. The ad would be pretty impressive on its own, but Gatorade says that the entire thing was created in-camera.

    The water printer itself comprises over 20,000 parts, and took over 5,000 man hours to construct. The printer they built had 2,048 individual nozzles, which turned on and off within 2 milliseconds. The strobes were then set to freeze the droplets mid-air. James Medcraft, the project’s director of photography explains:

    We’re using the flash to freeze the water droplets at a very precise moment in space, and we’re having to do that with millimetre and microsecond accuracy.

    To create the motion, the nozzles were driven by motion capture data of a real athlete who ran, jumped, and kicked while wearing sensors. The water rig would then drop a frame-by-frame animation, which was frozen with each flash.

    The result is the very impressive ad, that you can watch in full at the top. The one thing we can’t figure out – how did they create the punching bag scene without CGI?

    Gatorade has shared a behind the scenes video, which you can watch below. How do you think they did it?

    STAIRCASE IN ANTARCTICA

    HUGE STAIRCASE IN ANTARCTICA – UFO LANDING SPOT OR THE WORK OF GIANTS?

    Ancient History

    Google Earth images revealed the presence of what looks like an enormous staircase in Antarctica. Who’s responsible, aliens or giants?


    A heated debate is ongoing on many conspiracy forums, fueled by the recent discovery of what many claim is evidence of an ancient and unexplained presence on Earth. Many claim the structure that looks like a giant staircase leading up the side of a massive mountain in Antarctica might be the work of ancient aliens and could be the remnant of a structure that was once used as a landing spot for UFOs

    The user credited with discovering the unusual structure said he began looking for clues about ancient civilizations in Antarctica after taking part in a debate about prominent personalities’ recent visits to the frozen continent. Recently, Antarctica was toured by former astronaut Buzz Aldrin, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and weirdly, Russian Patriarch Kirill.

    UFO hunters have claimed that the U.S. Government is aware of the existence of an extensive network of ancient ruins buried under the Antarctic ice, ruins which hold alien technology left behind by alien visitors. As a result, the NASA astronaut was sent to investigate whether the extraterrestrial ships that might still be there were similar in nature to the ones he saw when he was on the Moon.

    antarctica

    The same UFO enthusiasts speculated that John Kerry’s mission to Antarctica served the same purpose. Why a Russian religious leader would be delegated on a similar mission remains a mystery.

    THIS MORNING, IN THE WORK VAN, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT CONSPIRACIES… SO I PULLED OUT GOOGLE EARTH [AND] CAME ACROSS SOMETHING THAT LOOKED LIKE A GIANT STAIRCASE.

    While some have proposed the alleged staircase is actually the result of a topographic glitch in the satellite imagery, many remain convinced this could be the remains of an ancient marker leading UFOs to a landing spot. They claim that in ancient times, it could have been equipped with some kind of navigational beacon to direct the extraterrestrial flying machines to their destination.

    The following comments paint a clear picture about what people think about this recent discovery:

    “It’s more likely a landing site than stairs.”

    “It does look like stairs – maybe on a pyramid structure?”

    “I attribute it to fallen angels and Nephilim… high-tech demonic activity.”

    “I’m not an alien believer but I do believe we’ve been all over this planet many times in our past.”

    It’s no secret that conspiracy communities have long held the belief that pyramids and step structures served a different role than the one attributed to them by archaeologists and historians. Proponents of alternative history are convinced aliens with advanced technology visited earth in the distant past and oversaw the construction of landing pads and beacons. They imparted their knowledge to the people of ancient Sumer and Egypt, as well as to cultures in South America. Over time, the real purpose of these wrongfully-called monuments has been lost and our connection with the aliens now lies dormant under thick layers of dust or vegetation.
    But there could be another explanation behind this controversial structure: the equally-controversial builders of many other megalithic structures, the ancient giants.

    The sons of the Nephilim possessed great strength, intelligence and they had a pride to match their size. Many ancient structures are credited to these proficient builders and the staircase in Antarctica could be one of them.

    The recent discovery of the staircase comes just weeks after another unexplained ruin was found hidden under Antartic Snow

    If there are pyramids in Antarctica, it stands to reason that our understanding of Earth’s history is incomplete at best.

    Mysterious Planet May Be Messing With the Kuiper Belt

    If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the history of mass extinctions, rogue asteroids are not good for the planet. That’s why the latest news from the Kuiper asteroid belt is disconcerting at best, apocalyptically frightening at worst. A group of astronomers has uncovered evidence that a warp in this asteroid belt beyond Neptune is being caused by a mysterious small planet hiding inside it. Is this Planet X? Planet 10? Planet 9? Will we decide on a name before it wipes us out?

    “The most likely explanation for our results is that there is some unseen mass. According to our calculations, something as massive as Mars would be needed to cause the warp that we measured.

    According to their new report in the Astronomical Journal, scientists Kat Volk and Renu Malhotra from the University of Arizona’s Lunar and Planetary Laboratory have discovered a strange warp in the solar system’s plane. While the planets and most other space objects orbiting the sun are predictably planar, things can get unpredictable at 55 astronomical units (55 AU is 55 times the distance of Earth from the sun) in the area filled with Kuiper Belt Objects. Volk and Malhotra say they’ve found a section that has an 8 degree tilt away from where models say it should be. That can mean only one thing.

    No, not aliens. The Kuiper Belt is being warped by an object large enough to have a belt-bending gravitational pull. Volk and Malhotra determined that a tilt away from the norm of that magnitude could be caused by an object whose mass is somewhere between that of Mars and Earth, making it a planet. Is it Planet X, Dr, Volk?

    The observed distant KBOs are concentrated in a ring about 30 AU wide and would feel the gravity of such a planetary mass object over time, so hypothesizing one planetary mass to cause the observed warp is not unreasonable across that distance.

    Volk prefers to refer to the warp-inducer as a “planetary mass object” for now and casts doubt on it being the rumored Planet X because it’s too close to the sun – Planet X, if it exists, is predicted to be more like 500 to 700 AU from the center of the solar system. If it’s not Planet X but it’s at least the size of Mars, why hasn’t any telescope picked it up?

    The chance that we have not found such an object of the right brightness and distance simply because of the limitations of the surveys is estimated to be to about 30 percent.”

    A Kuiper Belt Object

    In other words, it’s possibly in front of a dense cluster of stars whose brightness overwhelms it, causing astronomers using today’s telescopes to simply avoid wasting their time (and burning their retinas) staring at the spot. That could change with new data from the Outer Solar System Origins Survey, which is tracking and recording the thousands of objects beyond Neptune. Or it could be seen by the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope which is scheduled to be operational in 2020.

    Will that be enough time to protect us from rogue asteroids knocked towards us by this belt-warping new planet with no name?

    Nazca “alien mummy” revealed in promotional video featuring serial hoaxer

    https://www.facebook.com/NascaDeNasca/videos/1385694251498558/

    You know, our catchphrase used to be “people really believe this stuff” and I’m always amazed at how many times one individual can be caught promoting outrageous hoaxes and still keep on doing it with many falling his absurd claims over and over again. They so wish to believe that there was alien (non-human) influence in Latin American history. It’s just bizarre. The latest is an incredibly fake-looking “alien mummy” said to have been found in Peru.

    Screen shot of alien from video. No other documentation is currently available.

    The find was announced by Gaia.com who promote alternative history and metaphysics who describe themselves as “a community of seekers, empowering one another on the path to a conscious life. Together, we can awaken the evolution of consciousness.”

    The “mummy” has the proportions of a human – two arms, two legs – with various strange features including an elongated head with three-fingers on both hands and feet. The body is covered in a white “dust” that the investigators say dried the body but to the more down-to-earth observers, looks like plaster. Gaia released a video featuring “scientists” examining the body with a camera crew. This is the only documentation of the body. The crew includes infamous UFO promoter Jaime Maussan who, without confirmation of this being real or not (and, let’s face it, he is SO EASILY duped), called it “one of the most important discoveries of the 21st century.” Maussan, who is labeled as a “well-respected” journalist has lost all his credibility over his years of promoting ridiculous hoaxes as genuine.

    Red flags for this discovery include:

    • Maussan being involved
    • The obvious plaster appearance of the mummy
    • The reveal by Special Report “Unearthing Nazca” by Gaia with no sign of reputable scientific expertise
    • A closed team of researchers with alternative views that go against the scientific mainstream
    • No scientific results confirmed or retested because it has not been made available to anyone else
    • No documentation of location, context, or discovery
    • Promotion of it being a fantastic discovery that will “change everything”
    • Not published in a scientific publication

    The specimen is said to have been tested to reveal an age of 245-410 AD, not an unreasonable age for an actual mummy. The method of testing is not made available. The specimens are not available for examination. There is no expert in preserved Peruvian mummies on the research team. The three-fingered hand configuration is nowhere to be found in nature but we have seen it on another Peruvian hoaxed item that follows the same non-documented path to promotion. Remember the “alien claw”? It has a similar plaster-like coating. The researchers also link the three fingers to petroglyphs that show three-fingered humanoids. I suspect that this is a stylistic feature and am waiting for actual experts to weigh in (if they even care to comment on such a sloppy, pathetic sensational display).

    Xray of the skull. From screen capture

    There have been other hoaxed “mummies” and preserved aliens or creatures revealed as faked. It is easily conceivable that this is a carefully (or not so carefully) crafted, even a manipulated real skeleton or other remains (like many fake mermaids). See the Metabunk post on this for ideas about the three-fingered appendages.

    If we’re talking “alien” and “hoax” body or evidence, it’s not surprising that Jaime Maussan is around. The past hoaxes Maussan was involved in promoting include:

    Back in 2016, Biblical scholar Dr. Michael Hiser said: “Jaime Maussan should not be trusted. Ever. He is a serial fraud-perpetuator.”

    What we have here is a group of folks with an unconventional agenda promoting a questionable artifact that they wish to use to alter public perception of human history. But one artifact that you keep to yourself and that for all intents and purposes screams FAKE will not do that. So far this story has not received mainstream press but give it a few more days. The tabloids will regurgitate this unconfirmed, highly dubious evidence word for unverified word with lots of gusto and zero skepticism.

    Russia’s Concerns Of a New Planet Entering Our Solar System: Confirms US Scientist

    A5

    A recent new appendix added earlier today to the massive Aerospace Defence Forces (ADF) report relating to the mysterious new planet confirmed to be the outer reaches of our solar system says that an American scientist has confirmed many of its findings and further stated that our Earth is now under direct threat as this celestial body could begin to harm our Earth this month.

    As U.I.P had previously reported about (something is caught coming out of a black hole), the ADF has become increasingly “alarmed” at the threat this ‘apparent’ mysterious new planet poses to Earth from the time it was first discovered by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 2005 to the final confirmation of its existence by California Institute of Technology (Caltech) scientists in January.

    As to where this mysterious new planet comes from (and this is only the 3rd “true planet” ever discovered since ancient times), ADF scientists in this report state, is from the center of our own Milky Way Galaxy—and has been on an orbital path towards us for nearly 5 billion years.

    The evidence supporting this ADF claim, this report continues, was confirmed this past November (2015) when NASA “looked” nearly 5 billion years into the past with their telescopes, including the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR), and observed the impossible, something which had never happened before—a massive object ejecting itself from the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy— having so much energy NASA scientists can only compare it to the total energy that is emitted by the entire galaxy!

    A6

    Adding to Russia’s fears about this mysterious planet was the secret NASA information about it supplied to Federation authorities by NASA computer expert Lloyd Albright (in 1999) and US astronaut and Navy Captain Lisa Nowak (in 2007) that was so fearful Albright hid himself in cave and Nowak told her Russian interviewers “they won’t tell anyone the truth” and “I’ve never believed the Bible, but now I have to”

    The new appendix added recently, this report states that it comes from a Daniel Whitmire, PhD, who is a retired Professor of Physics from the University of Louisiana, who in a scientific paper written for Oxford University’s Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society claims that this mysterious planet, he calls by the ancient Sumerian name of Nibiru, has “all but arrived to our neck of the woods” and that the destruction brought about by its “gravitational trickery” will take place this month, as it’s done numerous times before, every time it passed us by.

    Doctor-scientist Whitmire and his colleague, John Matese, first published research on the connection between this mysterious planet and mass extinctions on Earth in the journal Nature in 1985, this report continues, and which, this past January, Caltech researchers estimated its size as being about 10 times the mass of Earth.

    6a00d8341bf67c53ef016764995c54970b-800wi

    Is there SOMETHING Heading towards us!

    However, this report notes, though both Doctor-scientist Whitmire and Caltech researchers agree that this mysterious new planet now exists in our solar system, they disagree on its present orbit.  It can also not yet be confirmed if any such planet was actually fired from the

    ADF scientists in their report though note that the “orbital mechanics” of this mysterious planet are less to be considered then the “electromagnetically caused chaos” it will represent in our solar system—which on Earth, they say, could be manifested in violent and increasing earthquakes, massive volcanic explosions, and weather disasters caused by changes (increase/decrease of sun spots) to our Sun, not to mention the hundreds, if not thousands, of asteroids that could impact Earth.

    It is important to note, this report appendix concludes, is that unlike Western scientists who adhere to the non-proven gravitational theory of our universe, Russian scientists ascribe to the electrical theory creating for these two bodies of experts an “incompatible gulf” of knowledge that cannot ever be bridged.

    nnpp2

    What with the age of Planet Earth being generally accepted to be around 4.54 billion years old, with an error range of up to about 50 million years, this report says, this mysterious object ejected from the center of our galaxy could very well now have not only entered into our solar system, but is more than likely to be the new planet Caltech has recently announced their discovery of.

    But not totally to science do ADF scientists make this astonishing supposition, but rather to ancient myths—especially since this mysterious new planet originated from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy in Sagittarius A* near of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius.

    Unlike Western scientists who discard the ancient knowledge of our world, Russian scientists examine these ancient myths to find, if any, their connections to modern discoveries—which in this particular case, as this report details, leads them to the oldest such stories of our world regarding Sagittarius—which the Babylonians identified as the god Nergal, a strange centaur-like creature firing an arrow from a bow portrayed in hymns and myths as a god of war and pestilence and the deity who presides over the netherworld and of whom the Hebrew Bible warned about.

    And in its rather frightening conclusion, ADF scientists note that in the world’s oldest creation epic, the Babylonian Enûma Eliš (Enuma Elish), that the more familiar Book of Genesis is based on, both the Earth and its “destroyer” (the newly discovered planet believed ejected from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy) were “born” at the same time—but will meet in the last days when the final judgment will come—and as most widely known from the Bible’s Book of Revelation that warns:

    The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of waters. The name of the star is called Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter. The fourth angel sounded, and a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were struck, so that a third of them would be darkened and the day would not shine for a third of it, and the night in the same way.

    No matter what is said, something huge is lurking out there, and whether all these stories/science facts are a coincidence or not, there is certainly some rather intense conversations being held around the planet now by some of the worlds leading Scientist’s and Astronomers!

    U.I.P SUMMARY

    Planet X/Nibiru could very well indeed be a very true story, something which has been mocked for a very long time now.  The mysteries of a hidden Planet in our solar system appears to be no longer a myth and something that even NASA has confirmed is true (http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/news/2016/01/21/caltech-researchers-find-evidence-of-a-real-ninth-planet).  It has even recently been denied by NASA that this supposed ninth planet is NOT interfering with their Cassini space craft, which is currently circling around Planet Saturn!

    Perhaps, just perhaps, the Ancient civilisations here on Earth were right about this hidden Planet X.

    ROBERT MISHOVSKI

    Here’s to you, a story that made me sleepless for couple of days, the answer to all of your questions about your existence, your origins and even the future to come.

    As I will walk you trough some of the facts I want to make sure that this doesn’t seem to you another conspiracy theory. All the information provided here are a result of one of the biggest archaeological discoveries of the century and couple of decades spent on translations and linguistic research.

    It all started 50 years ago when the archaeologist and author Zecharia Sitchin started translating 20,000 years old Sumerian tablets entitled “Autobiography of Enki”.

    Since there weren’t any Sumerian translators at the time, it took him more than 20 years of research to understand the complex Sumerian language.

    As Zecharia started understanding the letters and sentences, he found that the tablets he was translating were an autobiography of an extraterrestrial from a planet called Niburu who led a scientific expedition on earth in search for gold before homo sapiens even existed!

    The extraterrestrial’s name is Enki and the picture below shows a portrait of him.

    In Enki’s autobiography, he explains how he was sent on planet earth along with 20 other astronauts and his wife in search for the only material that could save their planet from global warming; gold! For them, the gold was so valuable because once spread in their atmosphere in a form of dust it protected them from ultraviolet radiation which was making life on Nibiru very difficult.

    Finding more gold was the only solution for saving Nibiru but one of the biggest problems they faced was actually excavating and refining the gold since most of the astronauts from Nibiru have never done physical labor before.

    After years of work, Enki and his team have managed to excavate a very small amount of gold which wasn’t even closely enough to save Nibiru’s atmosphere. That’s when Enki got the idea to elevate the Homo Erectus species he found on earth by mixing it’s DNA with theirs. Since his wife Ninhursag was a doctor and a scientist he gave her the mission to create what we know today to be an ” intellectual human being”.

    Humans are Aliens

    Humans are Aliens – and we were brought to Earth hundreds of thousands of years ago

    Conspiracies

    What if  Humans are the aliens we’ve been looking for all along? According to experts, humans were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth—in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

    Tell Al-Uhaymir modern day Iraq, where the ancient Sumerian city of Kish used to be, archaeologists found one of the oldest ancient documents on the planet, the tablet of Kish which is believed to date back to the year 3500 BC.

    The Sumerian king list states that Kish was the first city to have kings following the deluge, beginning with Jushur. Jushur’s successor is called Kullassina-bel, but this is actually a sentence in Akkadian meaning “All of them were lord”. Thus, some scholars have suggested that this may have been intended to signify the absence of a central authority in Kish for a time.

    This ancient document is believed to precede the cuneiform writing of the Sumerians, and the Egyptian hieroglyphs for almost one hundred years.

    Developing the ability to express thoughts through written language is one of the first ways in which man differed from the animal kingdom.

    Five thousand years since, humans have developed electricity, divided the atom, developed computers, and led man to the moon. We have achieved things that other species have still not.

    No other species on earth can attributure such unique achievements in such a short period of time. Interestingly, compared to other species of the earth, our ‘evolution’ is relatively short.

    It has been a short period of time, most likely a few million years since the first hominid walked on Earth. Precisely this is one of the biggest scientific questions of all times: Why have only our species emerged to this truly advanced technological intelligence?

    Evidently,  there is nothing more advanced than humans on planet Earth.

    While there are different ‘intelligent’ species on Earth, none of them makes use of technology like us.

    Just imagine for a second, if for some reason, mankind had to return to the jungle, and survive there. Many experts agree that most of them would not survive for a very long period of time.

    Many scientists agree that humans, in addition to their intelligence, are not very capable to occupy a wide range of environments. In other words, we are very limited when it comes to our planet.

    In addition to our fascinating intelligence, biologists have also noticed contrasts between human physiology and that of other animals on earth. Many scientists agree that compared to other species on earth, humans are rather strange. For example, a baby horse when born, is able to walk and function almost independently, but this a human baby can not do, which makes us quite helpless. In other words, we are born before being neurologically ready for life.

    Many researchers agree that there are many vulnerabilities that accompany our intelligence.

    Humans on earth eventually became bipeds, which freed up our superior extremities allowing us to manipulate objects, create tools and much more. But for all this, experts believe that our species has paid an expensive price. Lumbar pain a sign that according to many experts could tell us a lot about our species. Curiously, other animals on Earth do NOT have this problem. It’s as if only humans are affected by some of these problems.

    So what does all of this mean? According to one expert, it means that we are the aliens we’ve we been looking for all along.

    A new theory proposed by Dr. Ellis Silver states that there are several tell-tale signs present in the human race that suggest human beings did not evolve ALONGSIDE other lifeforms on Earth.

    The book called ‘Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence’ is basically a resume of theories for and mostly against man’s evolution on Earth. In the book, leading environmentalist and ecologist Dr. Ellis Silver goes through an evaluation of thirteen leading hypothesis and seventeen factors which suggest HUMANS ARE NOT FROM EARTH.

    Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more said Dr. Ellis in an interview.

    According to Dr. Ellis, humans might suffer from back pain because our species initially evolved on another planet with a lower gravity, adding to the mysteries, Dr. Ellis also indicates that it is strange that newborns have large heads and make it difficult for mothers to give birth, which can result in fatalities for both mother and child.

    So where do we come from? According to Dr. Ellis, Neanderthals were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth— in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

    According to Dr. Ellis, there are millions of people around the globe who ‘feel’ that they do not belong on Earth.

    Dr. Ellis explains: “This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this … is that the Earth might be a prison planet since we seem to be a naturally violent species and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”

    Dr. Ellis concludes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.

    Furthermore, as noted by Robert Sepher, according to modern DNA sequencing, it is demonstrated that humanity as we know it, isn’t just ONE single ‘race’ that descended from the same ancestor in Africa, but a hybridized species, with a far more enigmatic truth behind it all.

    Many questions have been raised in the discussion about Rh negative blood. If mankind did, in fact, evolve from a mutual ancient African ancestor, theories state that everyone’s blood would be compatible, but regrettably, this is not the case. This raises numerous questions that science alone has not been able to fully answer. Where did Rh negative blood come from? And why is it that a Rh negative mother carrying Rh positive children tries rejecting her own offspring? Is it possible that this can be explained by a rather controversial theory? A theory which suggests that humanity isn’t in fact one race, but a hybridized species.

    The book was written by Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History tells us more about the enigmatic blood type Rh-negative. Not only does Species with Amnesia suggest mankind is, in fact, a hybridized species, the author suggests that highly advanced civilizations have been on Earth before us, just to be destroyed by some great global catastrophe, as mysteriously, history tells us.

    Sepehr argues that for each race that has died out, another has taken its place, with a selected few holding on to the memories and sacred knowledge of the past race. In our vanity, we think we have discovered some of the great truths of science and technology, but we are in fact only just beginning to rediscover the profound wisdom of past civilizations. In many ways, we are like an awakening Species with Amnesia, yearning to reclaim our forgotten past. –

    The Basque people of Spain and France have the highest percentage of Rh negative blood. About 30% have (rr) Rh negative and about 60% carry one (r) negative gene.

    Could these three moons help us find life beyond Earth?

    Right here in our solar system, three small ocean-containing moons are intriguing researchers, who think they might just harbor the conditions for existence to begin.

    Draw a Venn diagram with two overlapping circles, label one “oceans” and the other “planetary moons,” and look at where the two spheres intersect — that’s where our search for alien life is focused right now. Saturn’s moons Enceladus and Titan, and Jupiter’s moon Europa, extraterrestrial bodies confirmed to contain liquid oceans and referred to as ocean worlds, are three targets of keen interest and of future exploration.

    Drawing conclusions from Earth, scientists have settled on a shortlist of the ingredients needed for life as we know it: liquid water; an energy source for metabolism; and a chemical cocktail of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur. Data from space missions has revealed the likely presence of these components on Enceladus, Titan and Europa — along with other unique elements — which raises the possibility they may have evolved their own ways of sustaining life. Planetary scientist Alexander Hayes, a professor at Cornell University and one of the researchers engaged in the hunt for life, explains why our hopes currently rest on these three moons (TEDxCornellTech Talk: Ocean worlds — life as we know it?).

    Why these three moons? Earth’s oceans have led us there. 

    In 2000, oceanographers probing the depths of the Atlantic Ocean came across masses of hydrothermal vent systems — essentially pools of heated water — in a spot near Ecuador where they’d never expected to discover them. Until then, such systems had been found only above underwater volcanoes. But these vents, known as the Lost City Hydrothermal Field, were different — their heat was created by chemical reactions between seawater and rock rather than from magma. From this process a unique biome had arisen. High amounts of methane and hydrogen gas came out of the vents, and the microbial world in the Lost City fed on it. Just like plants use water and sunlight to grow, the microorganisms relied on this gas. “Life was found literally running off the energy provided by chemical reactions between rock and ocean water,” says Hayes. Scientists wondered if the bottoms of extraterrestrial oceans could support similar biomes.

    This graphic illustrates how scientists speculate that water interacts with rock at the bottom of the ocean of Saturn’s moon Enceladus.
    NASA/JPL-Caltech/Southwest Research Institute.

    Enceladus: a moon with intriguing jets of ice and water. 

    Enceladus is the sixth-largest moon of Saturn, with a diameter of roughly 310 kilometers — “it would fit nicely between Los Angeles and San Francisco,” says Hayes. This ocean world has been the subject of several fly-by investigations from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft. In 2005, Cassini data showed dozens of jets of ice and water particles coming out of Enceladus, breaking through the moon’s icy shell. “Something was generating heat,” Hayes says. “Icy water particles were coming out of more than 100 jets.” A Cassini sample of the particles also revealed they contained organics, Hayes says, “and about a year later, the team found salts in particles from the jets, which meant they must have come from a saline body of water and froze in a process like a sea spray.” An ocean was hiding under the moon’s surface.

    The jets provide clues that hint at vents with a striking similarity to those of the Lost City Hydrothermal Field. 

    In 2015, the Cassini spacecraft took a very fast (speeds reached 19,014 mph) and risky dive into one of the jets, which gave scientists a wealth of new samples to analyze. The team, led by NASA’s J. Hunter Waite, discovered molecular hydrogen in the samples, posing major implications in the hunt for life there. If Enceladus creates its own molecular hydrogen — and hydrogen is what feeds the microorganisms living in the Lost City vents — it’s another reason that life could exist there.

    Could an expedition to Enceladus be next? 

    Hayes’s Cornell University colleague Jonathan Lunine has proposed the Enceladus Life Finder (ELF), a mission to fly a specially designed probe through the jets and collect more samples and data to learn what’s going on. Cassini did sample the jets, but Lunine and his team explain that its instruments are much less advanced than the technology available now (Cassini launched back in October 1997, a lifetime ago in tech terms). “Enceladus is particularly attractive [for a mission] because liquid water from its deep interior is actively erupting into space, making sampling of the interior straightforward,” Lunine and team wrote in their proposal. ELF’s instruments could look at the jets’ solids and gases to search out life-building amino and fatty acids and look for more indications of conditions suitable for life.

    Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, appears most like Earth, with some notable distinctions. 

    Titan is the only body besides Earth known to have stable bodies of liquid on its surface. It harbors lakes of methane and seas of hydrocarbon, along with an underground ocean of an unknown liquid. It contains mountains and dunes, but the dunes are made of solid hydrocarbons, a plasticlike substance. It also has rain storms and canyons that flood. “Titan has the possibility for life as we know it — and perhaps for life as we don’t know it,” says Hayes. “Whether or not you need liquid water is an interesting question, and you cannot help but ask whether or not some exotic form of life may have developed in these hydrocarbon lakes and seas.”

    Ideas to explore Titan: a boat? an orbiter? a balloon-boat orbiter combo? 

    Eight years ago, an international team designed the Titan Saturn System Mission, a joint NASA/European Space Agency (ESA) initiative to send a balloon-boat orbiter combo to the ocean world. With goals of taking high-resolution photos of Titan from above and extracting samples from the atmosphere and one of its seas, the mission was floated for a 2020 launch. Since then, the Titan Mare Explorer (a boat mission to Titan’s Ligeia Mare), the Oceanus orbiter, and the Dragonfly drone have been proposed. All these potential ventures share the same essential objective: to uncover more information about Titan and gather samples that could reveal details on its lakes and seas, the currents within them, and the chemical composition of its dunes, rain and atmosphere.

    On Europa, a search for hydrothermal vents. 

    Europa, a moon of Jupiter that’s slightly smaller than our moon, has been found to have a curious, time-varying magnetic field, which scientists say indicates it harbors a salty, underground ocean ten times deeper than the deepest area of Earth’s oceans. Thermal vents like the ones on our planet, which are found up to 1.5 miles underwater, might exist on Europa, too, according to information gathered by the Voyager and Galileo spacecrafts. Images show “the surface [of Europa] is covered by fracture patterns that crisscross all over the surface,” Hayes says. “They’ve been formed as Europa is being pushed and pulled by Jupiter in an eccentric orbit.” This constant pushing and pulling creates heat. And if Europa has a stable source of heat beneath its global ocean — which appears to have three times more water than all of Earth’s oceans combined — it could contain yet-uncovered pockets of life.

    On the horizon: the Europa Clipper mission. 

    This NASA mission is intended to attain a better picture of Europa’s landscape and gather reconnaissance for possible future landings … and maybe even human habitability. Hayes is one of the scientists working to develop the project. “We’re running all of these models right now to say, ‘These are the kind of images we can acquire from this orbital trajectory,’ and then taking the data we think we can acquire based on the position of the spacecraft and doing a tour assessment,” he says.

    With so many efforts under way, Hayes is optimistic about what researchers could find. “I think it’s safe to say that we live in truly extraordinary times,” he says. “We have the capability to look for signs of life in the ocean worlds of the outer solar system; all we need is the will to move forward and progress past these recent discoveries and move on to other ones. We live in an era where we could see evidence in our own lifetimes for a second genesis of life in our solar system.”

    Finding alien life across the Universe is more a question of when, not if

    Extremophiles show life can exist in the Universe's most extreme places giving hope to finding aliens on distant worlds

    Jupiter's moon Europa was first discovered in 1610

    Are we alone? To help answer one of humanity’s most profound questions, try looking closer to home.

    Where are all the aliens? WIRED explains the Fermi Paradox

    “We are now at the first time in human history where we can approach this question scientifically,” said Lynn Rothschild, astrobiologist at Nasa's Ames Research Centre. And the most significant discoveries are coming from research on Earth.

    “If there’s an organism that can live under a certain condition here, it doesn’t mean it’s sitting there on Venus or Europa. It just means that it’s possible and so it’s worth looking,” Rothschild explained at the Starmusscience conference in Trondheim, Norway.

    As we understand more and more about life living under the most extreme conditions on Earth, we draw closer to understanding the minimum conditions for life in the Universe. “If you’re out hunting for deer or elk you know what they look like, it’s pretty easy: you find one, you shoot it, you bring it home. But if you don’t know what an alien’s like, how are you going to find it? So we have to look at life on Earth to get some idea.”

    The most volcanically-active body in the solar system, temperatures on Jovian moon Io range from freezing to 1,700 degrees C. Because of its low gravity, matter expelled by eruptions can fly more than 250 miles above its surface.

    The darkest known exoplanet, TrES-2b reflects just one percent of any light that hits it. Likely of similar bulk and composition to Jupiter, the planet is less reflective than coal. It isn't yet known why it is so dark, but it has been speculated that TrES-2b's atmosphere is filled with light-absorbing sodium, potassium, or titanium oxide.

    Larger than Mercury, Titan has one of the most fascinating atmospheres in the solar system. Temperatures stick at around -179 degrees C , but there still are seasons on the Saturnian moon. Lakes of liquid methane create methane rain, and it has even been speculated that rainbows could form in its dense atmosphere.

    Wind speeds of 224mph keep Venus' thick atmosphere in constant, dizzying motion. While it takes 243 Earth days to complete one rotation on its axis, clouds fly around once every four days. Rain falls as sulphur dioxide and sulphuric acid, with surface temperatures hitting 462 degrees C. There's also lightning on Venus.

    The winds on Neptune are the fastest of any planet in the Solar System, reaching 1,300mph. It is also one of the coldest -- temperatures fall to -218 degrees C in the outer atmosphere.

    COROT-7B
    Orbiting at one twenty-third the distance from the Sun to Mercury, things get pretty hot on COROT-7b. A year lasts just over 20 hours and temperatures soar to 2,600 degrees C. Its surface is likely coated in molten lava oceans and it might even rain rocks.

    WASP-12b, discovered in 2008, is one of the largest exoplanets ever found. It orbits incredibly close to its sun and a year lasts little over a day. And that close orbit (approximately 2,115,000 miles, a quarter of the Earth's distance to the Sun) is a real killer. WASP-12b is being pulled into an egg shape by the star's tidal forces and is loosing its atmosphere at a rate of about 189 quadrillion tonnes per Earth year.

    For astrobiologists, the problem comes from having a limited sample set: one. “We’ve only had one book to read so far and that’s on planet Earth,” said Rothschild. Since she joined Nasa in the 1980s, the number of known exoplanets has gone from zero to 3,496. These distant worlds exist in 2,606 solar systems and some could, potentially, hold life.

    “As a biologist, I am in awe of the places that life has managed to live on the Earth,” said Rothschild. Extremophiles exist at the wildest range of temperature, pH, pressure, chemistry, salinity, desiccation, radiation and oxygen. To get an idea of how tough life is, hop in a time machine.

    “Oxygen isn’t that great,” jokes Rothschild. “In fact, life on Earth was completely anaerobic for it’s first billion or so years. So when you hear about having to find a planet with oxygen on it, you would not have found that situation on Earth during the first few billion years of life. So, actually, it’s more difficult to live on a planet with oxygen than one without.”

    Stephen Hawking warns that if we don't leave this planet soon, we will be annihilated

    Within our own Solar System, the signs are promising. Enceladus, Europa, Mars and Titan could all, potentially, be home to life. And then there’s Pluto. “No self-respecting scientist, certainly not an astrobiologist, would’ve talked about Pluto before. But now we know there’s ice there, potentially liquid water.”

    As we start to find out more about the conditions both inside our Solar System and on exoplanets, Rothschild and her colleagues are presented with a new problem: what if we find conditions for life that are just outside the extremes studied on Earth? The answer: synthetic biology.

    “Eventually we’ll even be able to make life de novo. Our lab and others have been working on this very issue. And so then you could have a completely different building block, a completely different chassis for life. That then opens up many, many more possibilities”
