Finding Extraterrestrial Life May Rely on Identifying Traces Rather Than Aliens
Finding Extraterrestrial Life May Rely on Identifying Traces Rather Than Aliens
By Elizabeth Howell, Seeker

When the famous 15th-century inventor and scientist Leonardo da Vinci examined petrified shells with borings in them long ago, he had a remarkable insight. The strange fossilized formations, he determined, were likely left behind by ancient organisms.
Half a millennium later, this perspective is potentially useful in our search for alien life, argues a new paper that appears in Earth-Science Reviews, whose findings were recently presented at the European Astrobiology Network Association congress in the Netherlands.
Astronomers have been weighing options for how to identify the existence of life on other planets and moons in our solar system. There are a range of possibilities. Mars could be host to ancient or current life, depending on how much water flows on the surface and how salty it is. There are also many icy moons (some with water geysers) in the outer regions of our solar system — among them Saturn's Titan and Enceladus, and Jupiter's Europa and Ganymede.
"Leonardo understood the biological nature of borings based on their shape, not their biochemistry," said Andrea Baucon, the lead researcher. Baucon is an ichnologist, a type of scientist that studies life's traces through burrows, borings and trails. He previously studied da Vinci's work and is a researcher at the University of Modena and UNESCO Geopark Naturtejo.
"This observation appears to be trivial," he went on, "but it potentially allows [us] to detect extra-terrestrial life that differs from known life."
A major limitation of this kind of study, however, is that animal traces and alterations by geology can sometimes appear very similar. For example, researchers have identified what they say are more than four-billion-year-old fossils in formations in northern Quebec, Canada. This finding was announced earlier this year; in 2016, a separate team claimed to find 3.7-billion-year-old microbial mats in Greenland.
But given that the Earth is about 4.5 billion years old, critics of these discoveries argue, the changes in Earth's geology over billions of years can sometimes mimic the appearances of lifeforms. Microbiologists therefore need to prove that the older lifeforms did indeed exist by comparing the older fossils to much younger and better-verified examples of life. Researchers must also attempt to verify markings by life against the chemistry in the rocks, although again this can be altered by rock deformation over time.
Baucon is a member of ROSAE, an Italian acronym that in English stands for Organism-Sediment Relationships in Extreme Environments. It's a scientific project that looks at how organisms and sediments interact in so-called "extreme environments," such as the deep sea.
In this latest study, Baucon and his colleagues attempt to explain the best way to find extra-terrestrial traces. One method could be looking for "meandering" trails and burrows, which is an efficient way for microorganisms to look for food. Rather than making straight lines in an environment or repeatedly crossing a surface, the meandering allows a creature to search for food without exerting too much energy.
"Rangers look for tracks on the snow to determine the presence of elusive animals such as the lynx," said Baucon, pointing out that the traces work for creatures ranging from microscopic organisms to large dinosaurs. "Why not to do the same with alien tracks, borings, and burrows?"
"Traces of interactions with the substrate" — the natural environment for a creature — "are a common evidence for life on Earth, and their fossils can survive the humongous pressures and temperatures generated by colliding continents," he added.

In a new experiment, researchers have created a superdense version of ice found deep within icy moons and colliding comets, and watched it form in nanoseconds.
The scientists created the ice by exposing ordinary water to a sudden, intense, laser-generated shock wave, and they observed the formation of the superdense phase of ice, called ice VII, using rapid X-ray pulses to document its nearly instantaneous phase change. The transformation took place at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's Linac Coherent Light Source — the world's most powerful X-ray laser.
"We're really excited about this work because it's the first diffraction evidence, or structural evidence, of seeing liquid water transform in real time, in situ, into a high-pressure crystalline phase," Arianna Gleason, lead author of the new work, told Space.com. "The implications for this work in the planetary science context and geoscience context, for icy satellites or icy large planetary bodies — say, the ice giants even in our own solar system — is really exciting." Gleason is a researcher at Los Alamos National Laboratory and a visiting scientist at Stanford University in California, where the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory is located. [Rosetta Sees Signs of Water Ice on Comet Surface (Photos)]
Water molecules in their many forms are found all over the solar system; they gush from subsurface oceans on Saturn's moon Enceladus and Jupiter's moon Europa, form the bodies of icy comet visitors from the distant Kuiper Belt and appear in trace amounts in many planets' atmospheres.
On Earth, humans are familiar with the way water vapor can turn into liquid water, and liquid water to ice, as temperature decreases or pressure increases (and it can go from ice to water to vapor with the reverse). In certain conditions, ice can even turn straight into water vapor — a process called sublimation. But those are far from the only forms water can take; by going to otherworldly extremes of temperature and pressure, water molecules can slip into different crystalline forms.
Ordinary ice forms hexagonal crystals, but the form of ice the researchers investigated, ice VII, has a cubic structure. This form of ice is difficult to create and sustain in the lab, and until now, it's been impossible to measure its formation. However, researchers theorize that it forms briefly when comets or icy moons collide, affecting the way craters are shaped.

To re-create that collision environment, Gleason's group sandwiched a tiny, pen-tip-size package of liquid water in a tiny cell measuring 2 by 2 millimeters (0.08 by 0.08 inches). They shined a powerful green laser at a piece of diamond on the edge of the cell, vaporizing its edge "almost instantaneously" into plasma. That force sent shock waves blasting in the other direction, passing through the water.
"It really is like a tiny rocket effect," Gleason said. "We discovered that we can transform the liquid into a solid just by moving the shock wave through. And during that tiny, short amount of time — it really is only a few nanoseconds, that's a billionth of a second — we probe with these ultrafast and brilliant X-ray pulses."
Although this type of shock-compression process has been done before, documenting how the water molecules rearranged is only possible with the Linac X-ray laser, Gleason said. Like a flip-book, the X-ray images provide a moving record of how the ice formed.
"Collisions and impacts between large bodies [in space] — that dynamic process is very hard to model," Gleason said. "And so having a shock compression experiment like this, where we can actually see, [in] real time, how the constituent materials transform from one to another, is really exciting and providing new constraints on the formation of these bodies." [Water Ice in Moon's Shackleton Crater Identified]
Researchers tested tiny water cells in a vacuum chamber to try and image the freezing process before the experiment began. Later, they shock-compressed and destroyed the cell — but just before it was destroyed, they gathered X-ray records of the water transforming to a high-pressure ice VII phase.

Space collisions on Earth
Sarah Stewart, a researcher at the University of California, Davis, who was not involved with the new work, studies how giant impacts shape the craters found on solar system bodies. For her thesis work, she also formed phases of ice like ice VII in the laboratory. The only way that Stewart could confirm that she had created a particular ice was by measuring its density, she said. The new work lets researchers track the structure of the ice as it forms.
"What's amazing about Arianna's work is that she can reproduce in the lab a little parcel of what nature has done millions of times in the solar system, and let us understand what's possible in terms of these phase changes," Stewart told Space.com. "Nature makes shock waves, just like these lab experiments, by impact cratering, and we have these icy surfaces all over the solar system with impact craters on them."
Knowing the way ice VII forms during comet and moon collisions is crucial to scientists' understanding of how craters form. In Stewart's work, she wondered whether it formed quickly, which would lead to a crater structure similar to what's seen in reality, or slowly — which might demand another explanation for crater shape. This work affirms that ice VII can form extremely quickly.
But beyond that, both Gleason and Stewart said they look forward to researchers applying this technique to a range of materials, to learn how they change form when exposed to sudden shock. That would help scientists not only pin down what's going on in a tumultuous solar system but also learn much more about how materials in general change phase — a crucial question for physicists and chemists.
"Looking at the fundamental materials that are everywhere in the solar system to understand what happens under dynamic pressure — as a materials scientist, you eat this up," Stewart said. With this experiment, "I know what the structure is; I can show you how long it takes to get there. It's absolutely convincing. There's no hand waving. It took this amazing new facility to be able to do that."
The new work was detailed today (July 11) in the journal Physical Review Letters.
New research shows that the thin Mars atmosphere interacts with perchlorates, chemicals on the planet's surface, to create a toxic environment for bacteria. This confirms that the search for life on Mars should include digging beneath the surface.
“TOXIC COCKTAIL”
New research shows that our aspirations to grow potatoes on Mars may be a little premature. Results of a new study indicate that the thin Martian atmosphere and the ultraviolet radiation it allows to reach the planet’s surface interact with chemical compounds called perchlorates to create a deadly environment for bacteria.
We have known that there were perchlorates on the surface of the Red Planet since the 1970s when the Viking 1 and 2 spacecraft landed there. We’ve confirmed this with other probes since that time, and until recently that fact has actually been viewed in an encouraging light. That’s because although perchlorates — made from oxygen and chlorine — are toxic to humans, bacteria tend to thrive in their presence, using them for energy. Perchlorates also lower the point at which water melts, which offered still more hope for the existence of bacterial life on Mars.
Image Credit: NASAHowever, this new development definitively shows that all of those factors change when there isn’t enough atmosphere to filter out ultraviolet radiation. In the study, University of Edinburgh researchers exposed Bacillus subtilis, a common bacteria, to simulated Mars conditions, including low oxygen and temperatures. Under those conditions, bacteria lived for as much as an hour. However, with the addition of ultraviolet light, entire test tubes of bacteria were sterilized within 30 seconds. Furthermore, irradiated perchlorate reacted with hydrogen peroxide and iron oxide, two other common components of Martian soil, which rendered the soil hostile to bacteria.
THE SEARCH FOR LIFE
This, however, isn’t the end of the search for life on Mars. “I can’t speak for life in the past,” co-author of the study Jennifer Wadsworth said to The Guardian. “As far as present life, it doesn’t rule it out but probably means we should look for life underground where it’s shielded from the harsh radiation environment on the surface.” The ExoMars rover will look for bacteria by digging approximately 12 feet into the ground during its 2020 mission.
It’s also possible that an extremophile bacterium could survive these conditions. The common Bacillus subtilis is no extremophile, and the Martian environment may have created its own extremophiles that are even tougher than any found on Earth. “Life can survive very extreme environments,” Wadsworth told Popular Science. “The bacterial model we tested wasn’t an extremophile so it’s not out of the question that hardier life forms would find a way to survive.”
Meanwhile, the ExoMars orbiter is on track to carry out its mission: finding biochemical signs of life on Mars, or beneath its surface. The Mars 2020 rover will also be digging deep in the search for past life. NASA is developing a lidar system for the search for life on Mars. Hopefully, with this many research irons in the fire, we’ll get some exciting answers soon.

A man recorded a UFO disappearing into the sky over the Yakutia region in Russia's Siberia province.
The extraterrestrial was spotted in the Yakutia region in Russia's Siberia province and a man called Semyon, who filmed the alien footage, said it was floating above houses and had a vapour trail.
One theory suggest the lights could have been caused by lasers and a drone.
The Siberian Times say police have not had calls about this strange sighting.
Flying saucers, aliens, extraterrestrial life —all flying around in space! Will there be a traffic jam?
Ever found yourself looking at the skies, spotting something you have never seen before? For all you know, you’ve probably spotted an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO).
July 2 was World UFO day. The general definition of a UFO is something that is seen in the sky which cannot be identified.
The Roswell mystery
On July 2, 1947, Mac Brazel, a rancher, was taking care of his sheep, about 75 miles from the town of Roswell, New Mexico, when he discovered something unusual — metallic sticks held together with tape, plastic, scraps of glossy, paper-like material, in a mess. Baffled and unable to identify the strange objects, the rancher called Roswell’s sheriff, who called officials from the Roswell Army Air Force base. Officials searched the field, gathered the debris and took it away. It was suspected to be a flying saucer. But the excitement fizzled out when, a few days later, an air force official said that the “flying saucer” which had crashed was actually only a crashed weather balloon. Gradually, interest subsided.
Then, in the late 1970s, ufologists (people who study UFOs) began claiming that one or more alien spacecraft had crash-landed, and the extraterrestrial occupants had been recovered by the military, who then covered it up.
In the 1990s, the U.S. military published two reports explaining the true nature of the crashed object — a nuclear test surveillance balloon from Project Mogul — a top secret project by the U.S Army Air Forces that can detect sound waves generated by Soviet atomic bomb tests.
But even these explanations did not satisfy people, and the Roswell incident continues to be of interest, and conspiracy theories are still being formed. The Roswell case has been described as “the world’s most famous, most exhaustively investigated, and most thoroughly debunked UFO claim”.

Seventy years ago a rancher near Roswell, New Mexico, found some peculiar wreckage of silver foil and sticks. An official US army statement claimed it was a “flying disc”, leading to headlines that an alien flying saucer had been captured.
A second statement said the debris was just a weather balloon. The media accepted this version, although UFO enthusiasts still believe the Pentagon has a crashed extra-terrestrial spacecraft.
The second explanation was correct if misleading. It was an exotic weather balloon from a classified military programme, the existence of which was not revealed until 1994. The secret Project Mogul involved a cluster of meteorological balloons designed to carry microphones to a high altitude.

In the oceans there is a layer called the “deep sound channel”, which can carry sound for long distances, allowing submarines to be detected at long range. Scientists thought there might be a similar layer in the atmosphere which would channel loud noises – specifically Russian ballistic missile launches and nuclear tests. They calculated that such launches could be located from thousands of miles away.
Unfortunately the atmospheric sound channels, located in the 1960s, proved too high for the Mogul balloons. One channel was found at an altitude of 45-50 kilometres (28-31 miles), another at 80-90 kilometres (50-56 miles).
Raising instruments to these altitudes is impractical, but Swedish scientists have been using the sound channels for more than 30 years, catching reflections from them at ground stations. The equipment can track reflected infrasound from distant thunderstorms, meteors and volcanoes, and even pick up sonic booms from Concorde flights.
Exactly seventy years ago this week, three UFOs were sighted buzzing Roswell Army Air ForceBase in New Mexico. A few days later, the Army used a new Scaler longitudinal radar device to scramble their electro-magnetics, causing them to crash. Two of the UFOs struck one another and went down southwest of Corona, New Mexico. The third vessel crashed in Horse Mesa west of Magdalena, New Mexico and was not found until two years later. Thirteen more UFOs would be taken down and reverse-engineered. Sixty-five ETs from numerous different species were recovered... along with one survivor!
This is just the tip of a massive iceberg of truth revealed in the pages of two just-released new books, Unacknowledged by Dr. Steven M. Greer (edited by NY Times best-selling author Steve Alten), and Alten's own book, Undisclosed.
Alten's three-year commitment to bring the most incredible secrets in history to the public was inspired by his own first-hand encounter with a UFO - three days before he was scheduled to meet Dr. Greer - considered by many to be the world's foremost authority on UFOs and Extraterrestrials.
On Saturday, December 14, 2013 at approximately 11:10 PM, Alten and his wife were returning home from dinner and a movie. As they drove through their neighborhood, they noticed something bizarre moving toward them in the night sky - pale amber lights like nothing they had ever seen.
Says Alten: "There were eight to twelve of them flying in staggered pairs, approaching from the south less than a thousand feet (estimated) above Route 441/State Road 7 in Palm Beach County. They were far too silent and smooth to be helicopters and they were definitely not planes. As they came closer and passed almost directly overhead we could see the outline of a... well, their saucer-shaped vessels. By this time I had parked the carand we just stood and watched until, pair by pair, they simply faded into the ether. Let me be clear here, they didn't move out of range or shut off their lights or disappear into a cloud bank, they slipped out of existence. Neither one of us had ever seen a UFO before. Far from being scared, we felt exhilarated, like we had just been treated to something very special."
Three days later, the couple drove to Miami Beach and had dinner with Dr. Steven M. Greer and his wife Emily. The founder of CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Dr. Greer has prepared briefs for two sitting presidents, members of congress, the Head of the Joint Chiefs, and many world leaders. He also leads CE-5 expeditions - Human-instigated ET encounters which use group meditation and remote viewing techniques to vector in ET craft.
Through new contacts in Intelligence, the military, NASA, the FAA, and private defense contractors, Dr. Greer was in the process of accumulating startling new testimonials about UFOs, man-made reverse-engineered UFOs (called ARVs), black ops subterranean bases built several miles beneath established bases, ET structures located on the far-side of the moon... and mind-boggling secrets that were taped but not allowed to be published until after the death of all eyewitnesses. Greer reached out to Alten to co-write and edit Unacknowledged, a new tell-all book that would be mainstreamed with a new documentary (The Orchard - SONY). Alten agreed - provided he could use the information in his own book, Undisclosed, a "FACTional" thriller.
Alten explains: "Undisclosed is a Trojan Horse; it's a page-turner that weaves this mind-boggling information into the storyline in digestible bites. Neither book holds anything back. We use real names and list real locations. The most incredible stuff - the stuff that will really tick you off was provided by witnesses who died over the last few years, allowing Dr. Greer to make their information public. Insiders have been murdered to keep zero-point-energy hidden from the public. We're talking about a clean, abundant and free technology that would replace fossil fuels, end poverty and hunger, create hundreds of millions of new jobs worldwide, and stop climate change... only a handful of greedy sociopaths running these illegal black ops agencies refuse to allow it to be released to the masses. That was our goal in writing these two amazing books - to alert the masses to a new energy source that would change the world."
Move over Tom DeLonge – the singer/celebrity UFO club is getting crowded. While promoting her new album, “Rainbow,” singer/songwriter Kesha revealed that the music on it was inspired by her UFO encounter in Joshua Tree, California. At the same time, in an interview recorded shortly before his death, the rapper Prodigy discusses his own UFO and paranormal experiences.
“I was in Joshua Tree, totally sober, let me preface – completely f***ing sober … I think people would be like, ‘She was on acid’ or something. I wasn’t. I was on nothing. I was a totally sober Sally, just a lady in the desert. I look up in the sky and there’s a bunch of spaceships.”
“Totally Sober Sally” sounds like a designated driver, not a UFO witness – especially one in the music business – but that’s how Kesha describes it in a recent interview on the Zach Sang Show.
“I swear to God, there were like five to seven, and I don’t know why I didn’t like try to take a picture of it – I just looked at it. I was sitting on a rock, and I was like, ‘What in the hell is that?’ I was trying to figure it out, and then they went away.”
No cellphone pictures … aw, Kesha. It’s hard to believe she didn’t take out her phone at that point and text someone “OMFG UFO!” At least then she would have had it ready for this:
“And then they came back. They came back in a different formation than the one they were in previously. I was like, ‘Those are f***ing aliens.’ They were spaceships!”
While she didn’t get a picture, Kesha did get inspiration for her new CD and especially for the album art and one song called “Spaceship.”
In a moving interview with Viceland before his death from sickle-cell anemia on June 20, Mo Depp MC Prodigy talked about an incident when a UFO hovered over his house.
“It came over my house. Just started shining lights in our bedroom. The whole neighborhood blacked out at first. And then I looked out the window and looked down the block and all the power was out. At first, it was a white light and I thought it was a police helicopter looking for somebody outside, and then all these colored lights started coming into the room and it was dead quiet. All these lights were changing many colors. It was pretty significant, man. It was undeniable. And it became because I was asking for it to come.”
He also briefly touched on this in My Infamous Life: The Autobiography of Mobb Deep’s Prodigy, where he mentions that his wife, Kiki Johnson, was also there. Prodigy had apparently been asking for a sign and wrote that he believed this was it.
“The UFO came to my house to show me the light, as if to say, “Wake up, nikka! Snap out of it! We are real and you are important to us! Okay, we gotta go for now, hope you’re ready when we come back!”
Prodigy (Viceland)
In the Viceland interview, Prodigy also talks about his encounter with what he believes was the grim reaper at a time when, like Kesha, he was cold sober.
“When I laid down to go to sleep, you know, all of the lights were off in my room, and I’m laying there and a black shadow walk across my room. And it looked like—the only way I can describe it [as looking] like is the Black Spider-Man. And I woke up the next morning—the pain woke me up. I [hadn’t] been sick in six years. And I was in so much pain I had to get carried to the hospital. I knew what happened automatically, I already knew what it was. I already knew what that black shadow was.”
While it’s easy to connect experiences like these by music stars to drug use, it may also be that the minds of highly creative people are naturally open to more than the average person can see or experience. If the UFOs are bearing aliens, perhaps they can see that these musicians and artists are better equipped mentally and even spiritually for communications.
That doesn’t excuse Totally Sober Sally from not getting any pictures.
Last year, a Long March 2D rocket took off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in the Gobi Desert carrying a satellite called Micius, named after an ancient Chinese philosopher who died in 391 B.C. The rocket placed Micius in a Sun-synchronous orbit so that it passes over the same point on Earth at the same time each day.
Micius is a highly sensitive photon receiver that can detect the quantum states of single photons fired from the ground. That’s important because it should allow scientists to test the technological building blocks for various quantum feats such as entanglement, cryptography, and teleportation.
Today, the Micius team announced the results of its first experiments. The team created the first satellite-to-ground quantum network, in the process smashing the record for the longest distance over which entanglement has been measured. And they’ve used this quantum network to teleport the first object from the ground to orbit.
Teleportation has become a standard operation in quantum optics labs around the world. The technique relies on the strange phenomenon of entanglement. This occurs when two quantum objects, such as photons, form at the same instant and point in space and so share the same existence. In technical terms, they are described by the same wave function.
The curious thing about entanglement is that this shared existence continues even when the photons are separated by vast distances. So a measurement on one immediately influences the state of the other, regardless of the distance between them.
Back in the 1990s, scientists realized they could use this link to transmit quantum information from one point in the universe to another. The idea is to “download” all the information associated with one photon in one place and transmit it over an entangled link to another photon in another place.
This second photon then takes on the identity of the first. To all intents and purposes, it becomes the first photon. That’s the nature of teleportation and it has been performed many times in labs on Earth.
Teleportation is a building block for a wide range of technologies. “Long-distance teleportation has been recognized as a fundamental element in protocols such as large-scale quantum networks and distributed quantum computation,” says the Chinese team.
Can an aging corporation’s adventures in fundamental physics research open a new era of unimaginably powerful computers?
In theory, there should be no maximum distance over which this can be done. But entanglement is a fragile thing because photons interact with matter in the atmosphere or inside optical fibers, causing the entanglement to be lost.
As a result, the distance over which scientists have measured entanglement or performed teleportation is severely limited. “Previous teleportation experiments between distant locations were limited to a distance on the order of 100 kilometers, due to photon loss in optical fibers or terrestrial free-space channels,” says the team.
But Micius changes all that because it orbits at an altitude of 500 kilometers, and for most of this distance, any photons making the journey travel through a vacuum. To minimize the amount of atmosphere in the way, the Chinese team set up its ground station in Ngari in Tibet at an altitude of over 4,000 meters. So the distance from the ground to the satellite varies from 1,400 kilometers when it is near the horizon to 500 kilometers when it is overhead.
The search giant plans to reach a milestone in computing history before the year is out.
To perform the experiment, the Chinese team created entangled pairs of photons on the ground at a rate of about 4,000 per second. They then beamed one of these photons to the satellite, which passed overhead every day at midnight. They kept the other photon on the ground.
Finally, they measured the photons on the ground and in orbit to confirm that entanglement was taking place, and that they were able to teleport photons in this way. Over 32 days, they sent millions of photons and found positive results in 911 cases. “We report the first quantum teleportation of independent single-photon qubits from a ground observatory to a low Earth orbit satellite—through an up-link channel— with a distance up to 1400 km,” says the Chinese team.
Todd Holmdahl says that starting from behind won’t keep Microsoft from winning the race to commercialize quantum computing.
This is the first time that any object has been teleported from Earth to orbit, and it smashes the record for the longest distance for entanglement.
That’s impressive work that sets the stage for much more ambitious goals in the future. “This work establishes the first ground-to-satellite up-link for faithful and ultra-long-distance quantum teleportation, an essential step toward global-scale quantum internet,” says the team.
It also shows China’s obvious dominance and lead in a field that, until recently, was led by Europe and the U.S.—Micius would surely have been impressed. But an important question now is how the West will respond.
Voor het eerst is een object van de aarde naar de ruimte geteleporteerd. Deze wetenschappers bereiken doorbraak
Voor het eerst is een object van de aarde naar de ruimte geteleporteerd. Deze wetenschappers bereiken doorbraak
Chinese wetenschappers hebben een foton (lichtdeeltje) succesvol geteleporteerd van de aarde naar een satelliet op 500 kilometer boven het aardoppervlak.
De satelliet, Micius genaamd, is in staat om kwantumstaten van fotonen die vanaf het aardoppervlak worden afgevuurd te detecteren.
Het team heeft voor het eerst een object geteleporteerd van de grond naar de ruimte. Ook is voor het eerst een kwantumnetwerk tussen een satelliet en de aarde opgezet.
Star Trek
Tijdens eerdere experimenten konden wetenschappers fotonen over afstanden tot maximaal 100 kilometer teleporteren.
Bij teleportatie denk je misschien aan Scotty die de bemanning naar de Enterprise ‘straalt’ in Star Trek, maar in de praktijk werkt het anders.
Kwantumteleportatie is afhankelijk van kwantumverstrengeling, een situatie waarin twee kwantumobjecten (zoals fotonen) zich tegelijkertijd op dezelfde plek vormen.
Verbonden
Ze blijven met elkaar verbonden, ook al worden de fotonen van elkaar gescheiden. Metingen aan het ene deeltje beïnvloeden gelijk de staat van het andere, ongeacht de afstand tussen de deeltjes.
In dit geval creëerde het Chinese team verstrengelde paren fotonen op de grond. Ze straalden vervolgens één foton naar de satelliet, terwijl het andere deeltje op de grond bleef.
Daarna werden de fotonen op de grond en in de ruimte gemeten om te bevestigen dat ze verstrengeld waren.
Grote stap
Het is nog niet mogelijk om iets groots te teleporteren. Het is een kwetsbaar proces, aangezien de link gemakkelijk kan worden verbroken.
Hoe dan ook plaveit het onderzoek de weg naar nog meer ambitieuze onderzoeken naar kwantumteleportatie.
Het team zegt dat het een grote stap heeft gezet richting een wereldwijd kwantuminternet.
An Ohio witness at Delphos is trying to understand why he drove by a hovering UFO and did not stop to investigate, according to testimony in Case 83981 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The incident occurred about 3:45 p
.m. on November 20, 2016.
“I was driving home from work in Delphos,” the witness stated. “I looked up below the trees and saw a black and gray, or silver, squared, cubicle shape with the top right cut out about 8 to 10 feet in size – just hovering or vibrating.”
The witness saw the object hovering at the tree level. Pictured: Delphos, Ohio.

The next piece of the story is a mystery to the witness.
“I kept driving past it. And when I got home five minutes later, I asked myself why I didn’t turn back. It’s like I couldn’t.”
The witness is sure the object was not a known object.
“I know it wasn’t a drone or toy plane. It could have been military, but not sure. Or it looked like a pixel cube like in the movie, “Wreck-It Ralph.” Or could been a glitch-like movie, Matrix. I’m a normal, non-smoking guy and don’t drink much. I know what I saw was something real.”
The witness drove by the object and did not stop. Pictured: Delphos, Ohio.

It’s the story that never ends, and certainly one that will not go away.
It has been so often covered and continually rehashed that many websites, authors, radio shows and podcasts that delve into the unexplained have sworn never to mention it, for fear of boring their followers into a sound and restful slumber.
It’s like that vampire who, no matter how many times he is impaled, incinerated, beheaded, or staked through the heart, somehow gets rewritten into another plot so that the story can continue on and on, ad nauseam.
Or that one zombie that keeps getting blasted to bits, and just won’t stop coming after you.
I think you get the point. The persistence of this particular story is due, in part, to its legendary status in UFO circles, as well as what, for decades, was held by many to be “the smoking gun” as far as proof that extraterrestrial life has indeed visited our planet.
Yes, we’re talking about Roswell.
I ask forgiveness in advance–both from my readers, and my editors–for joining the ranks of the present surge in reporting on this tried, true, and now more-than-slightly-over-cooked UFO story. Yes, many would agree that Roswell has seen a bit more attention than it really deserves over the years (especially in the last few weeks). However, as I hope to help illustrate here, its relevance in relation to what was happening in 1947 has also been somewhat overblown, especially when compared with other UFO reports in the weeks preceding the alleged crash at Roswell.
So I’ll do my best to help set the record straight on a few things, and then I’ll quietly toss a smoke bomb and disappear, returning to my oath of silence on the perennially overdone Roswell UFO incident.
As expected, Roswell has been getting a lot of attention lately, coinciding with the 70th anniversary of the incident. A recent festival (well, a series of festivals) in the New Mexico town, which has now become a tourist hub for trinkets of the extraterrestrial variety, showcased events and speakers like my fellow MU writer Nick Redfern, and several others that gave perspectives on the incident.
What has also been interesting has been the media coverage Roswell has been getting from outside the UFO community in recent weeks. Dozens (and dozens) of articles have appeared, rehashing the incident and retelling the presumed explanation involving what, in likelihood, might have been a then-secret Project Mogul balloon that dropped onto a ranch outside of town. In nearly every case, the explanation is given in shades of sarcasm, as though the old “ET crashed there” idea is really what most serious UFO buffs still believe.
That’s not the case, of course. Speaking for myself, I concede that the Mogul explanation is at least one of several plausible scenarios that explains the Roswell incident, and the inconsistencies in reporting that occurred around the time (most notably, the downgrading from a “flying disc” to a “weather balloon”, which many have argued as being evidence of a conspiracy).
But that’s neither here nor there. Let’s look at a few headlines and excerpts from recent articles on the subject, along with their sources, and see what kinds of patterns emerge:
One recent headline at Bleeding Cool read, “Roswell, The Beginnings Of The UFO Craze And What It Has To Do With DC Comics.” Elsewhere, writing for Smithsonian.com, Donovan Webster noted that, “In Roswell, New Mexico, exactly seven decades ago this month (July), the first little green men arrived.” On July 7th, the Texarkana Gazette similarly reported, “Today marks 70 years since the U.S. began seriously contemplating whether there might be something ‘out there’.”
What do these headlines and excerpts all have in common? Each one appears to insinuate that the modern UFO craze essentially began in July, 1947. Further, the alleged crash at Roswell, New Mexico, is presented as though it had been influential enough, at the time, that it helped spur a “UFO craze” in 1947, which ultimately led to widespread belief in UFOs leading up to the present day.
However, while it makes for attention-grabbing headlines, there are a few problems with this retelling of history.
A few media outlets got things right. For instance, at JSTOR Daily a somewhat tepid article titled, “Roswell, Sacred Shrine of UFO Enthusiasts” correctly noted that, “A brief UFO craze resulted from the events of the summer of 1947. And there the story ended—until the late 1970s, when an alternative story began to emerge. It wasn’t a balloon after all: it was a spacecraft whose remains, including alien beings, had been kept secret since.”
That’s right. The “events of the summer of 1947” referenced here, in a scholarly sense, don’t pertain exclusively to the Roswell incident, nor even the famous sighting by Kenneth Arnold of what became known as “flying saucers” over Mount Rainier the month beforehand. Following Arnold’s sighting, and leading up the incident at Mac Brazel’s farm outside of Roswell, newspaper articles from the intervening two-week period recount hundreds of UFO reports that were seeing coverage at the time.
In other words, the “UFO craze” of 1947 was already well underway by the timethe incident at Roswell occurred. Let’s take a look at why this was the case.
One of the best historical commentaries on this period had been a NICAP report that was compiled in 1967, appropriately titled “Report on the UFO Wave of 1947,” over at the NICAP website. The report’s author was Ted Bloecher, although a foreword was provided by Dr. James E. McDonald, who at the time was, in addition to being a UFO advocate, the Senior Physicist at the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, University of Arizona.
In his foreword, McDonald gave us the following background on Bloecher’s work, and the prevalence of UFO reports during the two week period culminating in the events at Roswell, New Mexico:
“…[A]lready in the first two weeks after Kenneth Arnold’s Mt. Rainier report of June 24, 1947, press reports of other American sightings of highly unconventional aerial objects numbered not the dozen or so that most of us might recall, but many hundreds. Since Bloecher is careful to concede that his own searching cannot possibly have gleaned every last report from the 1947 press files, we can safely round upwards his collection of about 800 reports to an estimate that at least some thousand sightings of unidentified objects probably occurred within the United States in midsummer 1947, the bulk of these coming within a rather sharply defined wavecrest centered on about July 7. As Bloecher properly emphasizes, this clearly marks the episode as one of the outstanding sighting-waves on record.”
Of course, McDonald and Bloecher contended that the “wavecrest centered on about July 7,” which coincided with the date Mac Brazel first approached Roswell Sheriff George Wilcox, and told him that he believed one of the alleged “flying discs” making headlines around the country might have crashed on his property (the actual crash occurred sometime in the middle of June, and Brazel first noticed the scattered wreckage himself on June 14th, only reporting it once he began to suspect the wreckage could be one of the mysterious discs). In other words, Bloecher’s research showed the peak of the “surge” occurring one day before the Roswell story even hit the newsstands.
The following day on July 8th, the story of a “flying disc” that was captured became news, after the issuance of an RAAF press release which, at that time, also referred to the object as a “disc.” By July 9th, the explanation involving a balloon had replaced mention of a “disc”, and was appearing in newspaper reports, most notably the Roswell Daily Record.
It is important to remember here, of course, that interest in the Roswell incident itself didn’t begin to really gain traction until decades later, beginning in the late 1970s. Researchers including Stanton Friedman and others began interviewing witnesses and reviving interest in the story, which led to the first popular books being written about an alleged UFO crash, and the ensuing cover-up that occurred. Therefore, while it is often insinuated that the controversy surrounding Roswell had been what helped launch the 1947 UFO craze, the incident didn’t really begin to receive much attention until 1978.
That said, there were countless other UFO sightings and reports in the summer of 1947 that were getting plenty of attention.
Also worth noting is that, while Ted Bloecher did a fine job chronicling the “wavecrest” of reports that sparked the great UFO wave of 1947 (with or without the direct help of the Roswell Incident at that time), he also notes a number of reports of UFOs that occurred earlier in the year, placing them several weeks prior to Kenneth Arnold’s “first” sighting in June. Among the earliest had been the following report from April, 1947:
As early as the middle of April 1947, at the Weather Bureau in Richmond, Virginia, a U. S. Government meteorologist named Walter A. Minczewski and his staff had released a pibal balloon and were tracking its east-to-west course at 15,000 feet when they noticed silver, ellipsoidal object just below it. Larger than the balloon, this object appeared to be flat on bottom, and when observed through the theodolite used to track the balloon, was seen to have a dome on its upper side. Minczewski and his assistants watched the object for fifteen seconds as it traveled rapidly in level flight on a westerly course, before disappearing from view. In the official report on file at the Air Force’s Project Blue Book, at Wright-Patterson Field, in Dayton, Ohio, this sighting is listed as Unidentified.
Bloecher’s entire Report on the UFO Wave of 1947can be read here, and rest assured that it makes for some interesting historical reading for those interested in the UFO subject.
However interesting the finer details of UFO history may be (at least to some of us), one thing that likely isn’t going away anytime soon (much like the Roswell story itself) will be the way mainstream commentators gloss over everything with such self-assurance. So just to help set the record straight: no, Roswell didn’t single-handedly launch a “UFO craze.” In fact, it was merely one small piece in a much greater movement that was already well underway at the time, and didn’t begin to have a significant cultural impact on its own until decades later.
Okay, great… now that I’ve got that out of my system, I’ll now return to blogging about other things… anything, in fact, but another blog post about Roswell!
It’s the story that never ends, and certainly one that will not go away.
It has been so often covered and continually rehashed that many websites, authors, radio shows and podcasts that delve into the unexplained have sworn never to mention it, for fear of boring their followers into a sound and restful slumber.

Okay, great… now that I’ve got that out of my system, I’ll now return to blogging about other things… anything, in fact, but another blog post about Roswell!
Just a few days ago I wrote an article here at Mysterious Universe on the curious saga of Orfeo Angelucci. He was a UFO Contactee. And although he didn’t gain as much fame and notoriety as the likes of George Adamski, he did have his day. Angelucci may very well have been the target of an MK-Ultra-type “mind-control” operation, as my article demonstrated. Not everyone agrees with that scenario/theory. There is a lively debate going on, right now, at Rich Reynolds’ UFO Conjectures blog on this very subject. While Rich, like me, believes that the mind-control theory has a great deal of merit attached to it, not everyone does. You can find some of the lame comments here.
We can argue endlessly over whether Angelucci was indeed subjected to mind-altering substances or wasn’t. It’s important to note, however, that accounts like his don’t stand alone. In fact, there are more than a few almost identical ones to choose from. Today, I’ll focus on a man named Stanley Glickman. Salon.com notes: “Until his death in 1992, Glickman insisted that a CIA agent, who for 40 years he consistently described as having a clubfoot, had slipped him a mind-bending mickey in a glass of Chartreuse liqueur at a bar in Paris in 1952, driving Glickman mad and destroying his life.”
The story of Glickman is an interesting and ultimately tragic one. At the time of his strange encounter, Glickman, an American, was living and working in Paris, France. He was in his mid-twenties and life was good: he spent time at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere and with modernist Fernand Leger. At least, for a while, life was good. One night, in the latter part of 1952, Glickman met with a friend in the Paris-based Cafe Select. It was while the pair was hanging out and drinking coffee that something very weird happened. Two American men came into the cafe and soon engaged Glickman in a deep debate. Hank Albarelli’s 2009 book, A Terrible Mistake, chronicles the events in detailed fashion. He notes that “the two strangers fell into a heated debate with Glickman about politics, power, and patriotism.”
The confrontational debate finally came to an end, at which point the two men offered Glickman a drink, which he accepted. It was just about the worst move that Glickman could have made. In no time at all, he found himself plunged into a psychedelic nightmare. He felt as if he was floating above the table. His perceptions, said Albarelli, “became distorted.” The mystery men watched on “intently,” as Glickman’s hallucinations became evermore graphic and terrifying. It was a situation which affected Glickman’s whole life: delusions and a sense of going insane gripped him for weeks after he was hit by the mind-bending cocktail. He was finally given shock-treatment at the American Hospital of Paris, but was never the same again. Glickman gave up painting, moved back to the United States (New York), and ran an antiques shop for the rest of his life.
Notably, Glickman stated that one of the two men had a very noticeable limp. This has given rise to the theory that the limping man was Sydney Gottlieb, a chemist, and one of the key figures in MK-Ultra, and who just happened to have a clubfoot. In Gottlieb’s 1999 obituary, the U.K.’s Independentnewspaper stated: “Gottlieb’s contribution was to oversee MKUltra. From the early 1950s through most of the 1960s hundreds of American citizens were administered mind-altering drugs. One mental patient in Kentucky was given LSD for 174 consecutive days. In all the agency conducted 149 mind-control experiments. At least one ‘participant’ died as a result of the experiments and several others went mad.”
Blotter LSD
The Alliance for Human Research Protection states that, in 1977, Glickman “…learned about Gottlieb and CIA’s LSD experiments on unwitting involuntary subjects from the Kennedy congressional hearings. Glickman sued in 1981, but the trial was delayed 17 years on technical grounds, by which time Glickman had died in 1992.”
There are undeniable parallels between the story of Orfeo Angelucci and the affair of Stanley Glickman. Both were dosed in cafes/diners. Both incidents occurred in the 1950s. Glickman’s two characters debated him on his politics. Angelucci, in a curious way, had a tie to communism (as my earlier article shows). And both Glickman and Angelucci were watched “intently,” a word which both Angelucci and Albarelli used when telling their respective accounts. Can we say for sure that Angelucci and Glickman were the victims of mind-altering drugs? No. But, what we can say is that the cases eerily mirror each other – which should be definite food for thought.
The next time I dig into this area of research, it will be in relation to a man named Conrad Zerbe and his involvement in the Roswell incident of July 1947. Few will have heard of Zerbe and his Roswell connection, but he had a significant story to tell of his knowledge of what happened on the Foster Ranch – and he did tell it. After which, he too found himself in a near-identical situation to that of Glickman and Angelucci. In 1980, in a Los Angeles, California diner…

TOP UFO SPOTS IN THE UK
TOP UFO SPOTS IN THE UK
The truth is out there...apparently in various parts of the UK. This is because some of the world's leading UFO hotspots can be found in our nation.
Don't believe us? Take a look at 5 of the top UFO sighting spots in the UK:
1. Liverpool
How Liverpool would look if aliens invaded
Image source: Liverpoolecho.co.uk
Liverpool is the UK's top alien sighting hotspot. Police in Merseyside have had 13 calls regarding UFO sightings since 2013, more than anywhere else in the UK. While the alien group Mutual UFO Network claim that they have received 17 reports of UFOs being seen across Liverpool in 2016. And in 2015, a Ryanair flight delayed landing due to sighting a UFO over the River Mersey.
2. Wiltshire
This odd stream of light adds to the list of sightings of extra-terrestrial activity that has been reported in the area since the 1960s
Image source: openminds.tv
Crop circle formations and UFO sightings have been reported in and around Warminster in western Wiltshire since the 1950s. Farmers have discovered crop circles on their land and locals have captured on camera strange lights, flying saucers and noises. There are also claims of these UFOs killing flocks of pigeons and causing cars to fail.
3. Bonnybridge
Local reports of UFOs in Bonnybridge in the 1990s
Image source: dailyrecord.co.uk
This small Scottish town is one of the most visited places in the world for UFO sightings. An average of 300 sightings are claimed per year, and everything from alien ships landing to unexplained balls of light have apparently been spotted. Now somewhat of an alien tourist trap, local Councillor Billy Buchanan has requested the last three Prime Ministers to do an official investigation into these UFO spottings. So far, none have agreed.

UFOs aren't just aliens - as werewolves, pigmen, black-eyed children and even Big Foot himself have reportedly been spotted in the area of Cannock Chase, Staffordshire. There's even a blog dedicated to sightings at this Area of Outstanding Beauty and in 2015 several hundred local residents claimed to see a UFO spaceship hover over the area.

Alien sightings go as far back to the 1970's in this Welsh seaside town. Local school children claimed to see a UFO spaceship land while other locals have claimed to see little silver men and flying saucers. Although some of these claims have been partly debunked (apparently secret military training was to account for some of the sightings) people still visit Broad Haven throughout the year in the hope of spotting a UFO, and there are even locally run UFO tours available.

Triangle UFO quickly disappears over small Ohio town
Triangle UFO quickly disappears over small Ohio town
An Ohio witness at Batavia described a triangle-shaped object with three lights at its points moving directly overhead with no flashing lights or sound, according to testimony in Case 83789 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was outside in a front yard with a dog on a clear night at 9:45 p.m. on May 16, 2017, when the incident began.
“I immediately noted how many stars I could see and the darkness of the sky,” the witness stated.“While standing on the driveway and shortly after looking up, I saw the object come over my roof into view. It appeared to be several thousand feet up in the sky. I could easily make out three distinct, white lights in a perfect triangular pattern.”
The object appeared to be several thousand feet up. Batavia is a small Ohio town with a 1,509 population.

The witness stated that the object did not appear to be the average aircraft.
“There were no flashing aircraft lights of any kind. There was no noise as the object passed over. It was heading in a southwest direction. There were no clouds in my viewing area to obscure it, only some faint ones on the horizon, so I had a clear view of it. It was almost directly overhead of my neighborhood.”
The witness described the object’s movement.
“It made a bend in its trajectory turning towards the west after a few seconds. Shortly after, it abruptly disappeared. During the sighting, I did not want to lose sight of the object, so I did not run inside for my phone to take video. I noticed blinking aircraft lights within a few degrees of the object during and after the sighting. There are multiple airports in the area and I am used to seeing all sorts of planes and this immediately struck me as not having any blinking lights and a perfect triangle shape.”
The object was moving very fast.

“It also must have been moving quite fast since it covered a pretty large area of the sky in a short time. The altitude and lack of noise reminded me of seeing a satellite, but the triangle shape made me question whether it could be one. Whether the planes were tracking it or just flying over, I couldn’t say. We see a lot of planes around here.”
Batavia is a village in and the county seat of Clermont County, Ohio, population 1,509. Ohio MUFON Field Investigator Tim Kelly is investigating. The witness included one illustration with the report, which was filed on May 16, 2017. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made.

Micah Hanks’ recently-published article for Mysterious Universe – titled “The British UFO Files: An Estimate of the Situation?” and on the subject of newly-declassified British Ministry of Defense UFO files – includes the following words: “One of the most recent reports to come to light deals with an unusual, Cold-War era incident that occurred in October 1982. It involved an American RC-135 spy plane that, while monitoring Soviet military operations, came under some kind of surveillance by a large, unidentified and brightly-lit aircraft. The USAF base detailed in the report was located at RAF Troodos on Cyprus, and discussed an incident involving an unidentified aircraft which lasted close to 90 minutes.”
This is particularly intriguing to me, as I have a story that – to a degree – is somewhat similar to the one which Micah refers to. It’s a case that also revolves around both U.K. and U.S. authorities. The location is the same: Cyprus. The UFO, in both cases, was described as being large. And, the case brought to my attention occurred in the summer of 1981, just one year before the case referenced by Micah. Also, both UFOs were in view for a considerable amount of time. It’s important to note that I can’t be accused of having fallen for a modern-day hoaxer, as the story was given to me years ago. In fact, it takes up three pages of my first book, A Covert Agenda, which was published way back in 1997, a full twenty years ago.
For a period of time beginning in 1981, the source of the story was employed as a radar operator at a particular military facility on the island of Cyprus (RAF Akrotiri). On August 16, an unknown vehicle, described as being “vast,” was tracked approaching the island at a height in excess of 30,000 feet, and at a speed of around 900 miles per hour. It was initially believed that this was a conventional aircraft, although one of an undeniably extraordinary size. This tentative conclusion was quickly blown out of the water, however, when the UFO came to a complete halt in the skies – hovering high above RAF Akrotiri for close to an hour. Those who saw it described it as being of a brilliant white color, triangular in form, and somewhere in the region of seven hundred feet in length.
Interestingly, the informant – who shared his story with me on January 12, 1993 – revealed that at some point before the incident took place, the Ministry of Defense had issued what was described to me as a “complete stand-down” of military planes in the area, in the event that something both unusual and extraordinary might be seen in the sky – which it certainly was. Reportedly, a huge amount of photographs of the object were secured. They, and the station’s log-book, were handed over the next day to a man and a woman from the Ministry of Defense, and who had flown in from London. All those involved in the curious affair were reminded they had signed the British Government’s Official Secrets Act. It’s interesting to note that, soon after, according to the informant, a meeting was held at a U.K. military facility called Royal Air Force Lakenheath, located in the English county of Suffolk. Those who attended the classified meeting, specifically to discuss the event, included representatives of the British Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations.
There’s no doubt that the most baffling part of the story revolves around the claim that the MoD seemed to have prior knowledge that the UFO would appear in the skies over Cyprus. In light of this, I asked the guy who who related the story to me if he had pondered on the possibility that the object was not a UFO, after all, but some kind of secret, highly-advanced aircraft of a terrestrial – rather than extra-terrestrial – nature. Given that the craft hovered over the base for around three-quarters of an hour and was around 700 feet in length, he felt that such a scenario was highly unlikely. But, he admitted that he had no answer as to how the MoD knew the craft might appear. After A Covert Agenda was published, Mark Birdsall, the editor of Eye-Spy magazine informed me that he had received a near-identical story years earlier. Maybe, in light of all the above, we’ll soon learn more about what was afoot in the skies of Cyprus in the 1981-1982 period.

Archeologen ontdekken in dolmen mysterieuze inscripties die alleen 's nachts zichtbaar worden HLN.be
Archeologen ontdekken in dolmen mysterieuze inscripties die alleen 's nachts zichtbaar worden - HLN.be
Britse wetenschappers hebben een opmerkelijke ontdekking gedaan op een grote, eeuwenoude steen uit Hendraburnick Down, in het uiterste zuidwesten van Groot-Brittannië. Ze bleken inscripties te bevatten die alleen zichtbaar werden als het donker was. Volgens de onderzoekers zouden ze deel hebben uitgemaakt van heidense rituelen die duizenden jaren geleden werden uitgevoerd op de site.
Het was het team van dokter Andy Jones van de Cornwall Archaeological Unit die de 105 inscripties vond op een bijlvormige rots. Die zou dateren van het neolithicum, 6.000 tot 4.000 jaar geleden.
De steen zou deel uitgemaakt hebben van een ritueel waarbij kwarts gebroken werd, zo staat te lezen in een rapport in het tijdschrift Time and Mind. "Tijdens ons onderzoek ontdekten we dat de inscripties veel uitgebreider waren dan we dachten. En dat ze het beste zichtbaar waren als de zon laag in het zuidoosten stond of 's nachts", aldus Jones.
Duisternis werd in oude culturen vaak geassocieerd met het bovennatuurlijke en een verscherping van de zintuigen. "Als twee stukken kwarts tegen elkaar worden geslagen, ontstaat er korte tijd een gloed", aldus Jones. "We vonden fragmenten van kwarts op de site en het kan gebruikt zijn als onderdeel van een nachtelijke activiteit, waarbij de lichtgevende kwaliteiten van de steen werden aangewend om de verborgen kunst op de rots te onthullen. Na het ritueel bleven de stukken op de grond glinsteren in het maanlicht en ze zullen zo nog bijgedragen hebben aan het aura van de site."
Ontcijferen Wat de inscripties precies betekenen, hebben de wetenschappers nog niet kunnen ontcijferen. "Maar we zijn er zeker van dat ze ook op andere plaatsen gevonden kunnen worden", zegt hij nog.
Het Amerikaanse Congres buigt zich momenteel over een voorstel om een ruimteleger op te richten. Dat moet de belangen van de Verenigde Staten in de ruimte veiligstellen. Maar er is flink wat discussie over hoe dat vorm moet krijgen: als een aparte eenheid of als bevoegdheid van luchtmacht of marine.
Het 'Space Corps' zou onder meer de verantwoordelijkheid krijgen over de beveiliging van Amerikaanse satellieten en ruimtetuigen. Het voorstel spreekt van een aparte eenheid binnen de luchtmacht en de baas van het ruimteleger zou het achtste lid worden van de Joint Chiefs of Staff, een militair adviesorgaan van de federale overheid. Nu is de verantwoordelijkheid voor missies buiten onze atmosfeer nog gewoon een bevoegdheid van de luchtmacht zelf.
Die laatste is niet akkoord. "Het zou het leger complexer maken en meer geld kosten om een aparte eenheid op te richten", aldus secretaris Heather Wilson. Ook de marine ziet het anders en wil graag zélf de verantwoordelijkheid binnenhalen. Met het argument dat ruimtemissies van dezelfde aard zouden zijn als missies op zee.
Oorlog Externen vragen zich dan weer af of een van beiden überhaupt geschikt is. "Geen van de twee onderdelen van het leger zijn echt voorbereid op een oorlog in de ruimte", zegt Harry J. Kazianis, defensie-expert van denktank 'Center for the National Interest'.
De primaire focus van het 'Space Corps' zou op militaire satellieten liggen. Die moeten beschermd worden tegen potentieel vijandige grootmachten zoals Rusland en China. Dat laatste land vernietigde in 2007 nog een van zijn eigen satellieten en zou in 2013 al een afweersysteem met raketten getest hebben dat objecten kan vernietigen die rond onze aarde cirkelen.
Consequenties "Mocht er ooit een oorlog uitbreken met bijvoorbeeld Rusland of China, zal die niet alleen op de grond, op zee en in de lucht uitgevochten worden, maar ook in de ruimte", aldus Kazianis, die er zelf pleit voor een samenwerking tussen de verschillende militaire takken in plaats van een nieuw korps. "Winnen op een van die domeinen zou verregaande consequenties hebben voor alle andere."
VIDEOHij moest er met zijn team 12 uur voor vliegen, 1.200 kilometer voor rijden door een desolate woestijn en daarna nog eens honderden kilometers offroad, opletten dat hij niet op kraaienpoten reed en zelfs wegduiken toen op zeker moment een geweersalvo weerklonk. Maar het was het waard, als we hem mogen geloven. De Nederlandse fotograaf Bob Thissen heeft een passie voor verlaten en verboden locaties en is net terug van een expeditie naar een zwaar bewaakt Russisch militair domein in Kazachstan. En hij slaagde erin om daar adembenemende beelden te schieten.
De expeditie vond midden mei plaats en Thissen heeft er nu een compleet verslag van gemaakt. Hij verzamelde een team van drie mensen rond zich. Dat bestond uit de Vlaming Frederik Sempens uit Lovenjoel bij Bierbeek en twee Denen. "Dat was al een eerste horde. Het was niet eenvoudig om mensen zo gek te krijgen om met me mee te gaan. De missie was best gevaarlijk, want in Rusland raak je net iets makkelijker in de cel dan hier. Ik heb voor mijn vertrek echt afscheid genomen van mijn dierbaren, want ik wist oprecht niet of ik wel zou terugkomen." (lees hieronder verder)
Seksmuseum Waarom hij het dan toch deed? "Ik leef daarvoor", lacht hij. "Ik reis al tien jaar de wereld rond op zoek naar verlaten plaatsen waar het net is of de tijd stil is blijven staan. Waar niemand nog komt of dúrft te komen. Van vervallen kastelen, leegstaande ziekenhuizen tot een gesloten seksmuseum: niets is te gek. Maar dit was met voorsprong wel het spannendste avontuur dat ik al aanging. Het is een kick om je aan zoiets te wagen. Ik zoek het echt op."
Na hun vliegreis naar Kazachstan reden ze drie dagen door de woestijn om bij de legerbasis te komen, een plek waar nog nooit een buitenlander een voet had gezet. Het complex staat leeg, maar wordt nog altijd streng bewaakt door Russische militairen. "Het begon al te schemeren toen we op het einde van de derde dag arriveerden. We zagen een beetje verderop een auto voorbijrijden en doken weg toen plots geweerschoten weerklonken."
Verschansen Het laatste stuk legden ze te voet af. "Uiteindelijk raakten we binnen en we verschansten ons meteen, want het werd al snel duidelijk dat er druk gepatrouilleerd werd", gaat hij verder. (lees hieronder verder)
De fotograaf had zijn huiswerk gemaakt en hij wist dat er in een van de loodsen twee spaceshuttles moesten liggen, die een aardig beeld konden opleveren. "Kopieën van de toestellen waarmee de Amerikanen de ruimte in gingen vorige eeuw. Ze dateren nog uit de tijd van de ruimtewedloop. We moesten omzichtig te werk gaan om niet ontdekt te worden. Terwijl telkens twee teamleden op de uitkijk lagen op het dak, gingen we met zijn tweeën naar binnen. En we kregen waar voor ons geld", aldus de fotograaf. (lees hieronder verder)
In een van de loodsen lag een bijna complete ruimteshuttle. "Ik vermoed dat die voor 80 procent was afgewerkt", klinkt het. "Er was ook een toestel dat daadwerkelijk in de ruimte was geweest. Ik wilde graag nog een ander loods checken, waar een raket lag. En daarvoor heb ik het risico genomen om er op klaarlichte dag heen te sluipen, terwijl de militaire politie rondliep. Dat was wel heftig." (lees hieronder verder)
Uiteindelijk gingen ze er na 24 in plaats van 48 uur alweer vandoor, omdat hun watervoorraad op begon te raken door de drukkende hitte van 40 graden en de loden zon. Maar met een geweldige reeks beelden en filmpjes. "Een aantal daarvan bleek niet goed te zijn toen we thuiskwamen, dat was minder leuk, maar we hadden gelukkig voldoende materiaal verzameld", klinkt het nog.
