WERKT MARCEL HUSPAS ALS UFO-SPION VOOR MILITAIRE INLICHTINGENDIENST ( VIDEO )
WERKT MARCEL HUSPAS ALS UFO-SPION VOOR MILITAIRE INLICHTINGENDIENST ( VIDEO )
Je staat raar te kijken wanneer je een ufomelding doet via 112 en de politie geeft je geheime telefoonnummer door aan Stichting Skepsis en “journalist” Marcel Hulspas.
Dat is wat Bart overkwam toen hij een UFO-melding deed via 112 en vervolgens van Marcel Hulspas te horen kreeg dat hij discolichten had gezien, terwijl net daarvoor zwarte helikopters en een AWACS vliegtuig over dat gebied vlogen.
Hoeveel mensen zouden in de loop der jaren geen bloedserieuze UFO-meldingen hebben doorgegeven aan het alarmnummer 112? En hoeveel van die mensen zouden denken dat ze daarmee goed hebben gehandeld omdat de overheid er is voor hen?
Er is enkele dagen geleden een video gepubliceerd met daarin het verhaal van een gezin dat in de duinen bij Schoorl een aantal UFO’s waarneemt.
De man die na de melding van dit gezin prominent in beeld komt, zo zeggen zij, is Marcel Hulspas die zich meldt als zijnde van de Stichting Skepsis.
Marcel Hulspas is de man die naast zijn activiteiten bij Stichting Skepsis ook regelmatig “stukkies” schrijft in bladen zoals de Volkskrant en het AD.
De man die in een walgelijk en arrogant stuk in de Volkskrant de draak steekt met eenieder die vraagtekens zet bij de officiële versie van getuigenverslagen.
Zo schrijft hij onder meer over dat soort mensen:
Paranoïde gekkies die zich op Demmink hebben gestort. Nadat hij volstrekt ten onrechte door Panorama en de Gay Krant aan de schandpaal was genageld als 'pedofiel', vonden zij in Demmink hét bewijs dat de duistere elite die Nederland regeert door en door verrot is.
En als klap op de vuurpijl:
Kat is de ongekroonde koning van dit gekkenhuis. En iedereen kent iedereen, want alles hangt met alles samen.
We zullen het vandaag niet hebben over de rechtszaak die Micha Kat heeft aangespannen tegen de Volkskrant, we zullen het wel hebben over Marcel Hulspas, de man die volgens het verhaal van het gezin dat de UFO waarneming deed in Schoorl, het Nederlandse volk verraad waar ze bij staan.
Het verhaal dat wordt verteld lijkt authentiek, mede door het feit dat er in de video ook originele politiedocumenten worden getoond.
De man waar het allemaal om gaat, is te zien op de volgende afbeelding, Marcel Hulspas
Voor het verhaal gaan we een stukje terug in de tijd.
In oktober 2002 wandelt een gezin in het duingebied bij Schoorl en ziet een aantal vreemde vliegende objecten in de lucht.
De mensen schrikken en bellen 112, het alarmnummer, waarna ze worden doorverbonden met de regiopolitie in Alkmaar. De melding wordt genoteerd en de volgende dag ziet het gezin in datzelfde gebied zwarte ongemarkeerde helikopters rondvliegen.
Even later verschijnt een zogenaamd AWACS toestel (bedoeld voor verkenning) boven het gebied, wat bijzonder is omdat deze daar normaal gesproken niet vliegen.
Aan het einde van die dag wordt de man van het gezin, die ook de melding had gedaan via 112, Bart, gebeld door iemand van Stichting Skepsis in verband met zijn UFO-melding. Dit is een voor velen welbekende stichting die zo ongeveer alles afkraakt wat niet in het standaard mainstream verhaal past.
De man die belde namens Stichting Skepsis bleek niemand minder te zijn dan Marcel Hulspas.
Bart reageert uiterst verbaasd en op zijn vraag hoe Skepsis zo snel weet van zijn UFO-melding, antwoordt Hulspas dat hij de meldingen doorkrijgt van de politie.
De reden dat hij belt, werd dan ook al snel duidelijk, want hij vertelde Bart dat wat hij had gezien waarschijnlijk discolichten waren geweest.
Na dit gesprek gaat Bart piekeren en vraagt zich af hoe het mogelijk is dat zijn geheime 06-nummer in handen van Hulspas kan komen als hij een melding doet bij een overheidsinstantie.
Het zal niemand verbazen dat Bart van het kastje naar de muur wordt gestuurd en uiteindelijk terechtkomt bij de Nationale Ombudsman, die hem op alle punten volledig gelijk geeft.
Het verhaal in de video lijkt echt en overtuigend, ook omdat er originele brieven van de politie worden getoond.
Er wordt in de video gezegd dat hetzelfde wat Bart overkwam bij talloze anderen ook is gebeurd. Graag zouden wij vernemen van mensen die na een UFO-melding bij 112 ook gebeld zijn door “een medewerker” van Stichting Skepsis (of andere misleidende instrumenten).
Als het verhaal inderdaad klopt, dan toont het inderdaad aan dat de overheid bewust mensen op een dwaalspoor zet en toont het bovendien ook aan dat Stichting Skepsis een verlengstuk van de overheid is. En uiteraard dat Marcel Hulspas een levensgevaarlijke spion en agent is van de overheid met als doel het volk op een dwaalspoor zetten.
Dus, mochten er mensen zijn die in het kader van bovenstaande iets te melden hebben, dan graag!
OP VERSCHILLENDE PLEKKEN IN NEDERRLAND TWEEDE LICHTBRON ( VIDEO )
OP VERSCHILLENDE PLEKKEN IN NEDERRLAND TWEEDE LICHTBRON ( VIDEO )
De laatste zijn er veel mensen die op verschillende plaatsen op de wereld een andere lichtbron ontdekken, afgezien van de zon.
Zo hebben we al diverse opnames laten zien van mensen die, terwijl normaal gesproken de zon in het westen ondergaat, ook een zonsondergang in het oosten zien.
Verder natuurlijk de vele tweede zonnen die worden waargenomen, waarvan een aantal onverklaarbaar is, behalve als je gelooft in een mini zonnestelsel in onze atmosfeer.
Echter, daarnaast is er ook een volkomen natuurlijk verschijnsel en dat heet bijzon.
Een parhelium of bijzon is een natuurlijk optisch fenomeen of halo-verschijnsel in de aardatmosfeer dat gezien kan worden wanneer een lage zon door losse cirruswolken schijnt
Het maakt dus een groot verschil of je een tweede object ontdekt aan (een soort wolkenloze) hemel of één die bedekt is met (hoge) wolken.
Zo ontvingen wij de volgende foto van een lezer (dank!):
Gister reed ik in de auto door Edam toen ik iets vreemds aanschouwde. Het leek een 2e lichtbron in de lucht. Heb er een paar foto's van gemaakt. Dacht misschien kunnen jullie er iets mee :)
Een optisch verschijnsel zoals een 22º halo (gekleurde kring) rondom de zon of maan, ontstaat ten gevolge van breking van zon- of maanlicht in ijskristallen.
Kringen om de zon zijn echter allerminst zeldzaam, gemiddeld iedere twee of drie dagen is er ergens in ons land wel zo’n kring te zien en elders in de wereld is dat niet anders. Met de regenboog heeft het verschijnsel niets te maken. Een regenboog ontstaat door weerkaatsing van zonlicht in regendruppels, een halo door weerkaatsing in ijs. Naast de kring kunnen allerlei vormen zichtbaar zijn zoals bogen in verschillende richtingen die raken aan de kring, lichtzuilen boven de zon en lichtvlekken aan weerszijden van de zon. Deze meestal prachtig gekleurde vlekken zijn geregeld te zien en worden bijzonnen genoemd. Halo’s hebben een voorspellende betekenis: een kring om zon of maan is vaak een voorbode van een weersverslechtering. Niet voor niets kennen we de oude weerspreuk “Kring om de zon, brengt regen in de ton”.
Ook uit Friesland kregen we beelden (dank!) van een tweede zon. Al hebben wij twijfels bij deze foto omdat de wolken voor de tweede zon langs lopen en dat zou erop kunnen duiden dat dit wel degelijk een tweede lichtbron is.
Dan krijgen we opnames opgestuurd van een tweede zon en nog een vreemd object vanuit Groningen (dank!).
Toen mijn vriendin en ik op de terug weg waren naar Groningen, zagen wij weer iets heel bijzonders in de lucht, tijdens zonsondergang. Links van de ondergaande zon, zagen wij verschillende kleuren in het wolkendek. Ik pakte vervolgens mijn telefoon en maakte een aantal foto's.
Ook deze foto valt in dezelfde categorie en als je goed kijkt dan zie je de halo van de zon.
Dan volgt er nog een foto met daarop een vreemde bol of planeet boven de bijzon.
Wanneer je deze vergroot ziet het eruit als volgt:
Maar, ook hier is niets mysterieus aan, omdat dit een lensflare is die wordt veroorzaakt door sommige types van de moderne smartphone.
Dit alles wil niet zeggen dat er geen onverklaarbare fenomenen zijn waar te nemen in lucht. Zoals de volgende uit Amerika:
En dan natuurlijk waar we al vaker over publiceerden, dat mensen zowel een zonsondergang in het oosten zien als in het westen.
Steeds meer mensen zien een normale zonsondergang in het westen en tegelijkertijd in het oosten een tweede vreemde lichtbron, vaak met rood/roest-achtige luchten.
Wat eveneens heel bijzonder is, is de reactie van een jong meisje bij het zien van de volgende afbeelding die wij in een eerder artikel plaatsten.
Ze “herkende” de rode lucht en de sfeer uit beelden waarover ze heel vaak droomt.
Door de gloed van de Verwoester was de aarde gehuld in een roodachtig licht. Het land was platgeslagen en verwoest door enorme hagelstenen die neer beukten op alles wat stond. Ze kwamen naar beneden in hete buien en achter hen aan kwam een soort vreemd gloeiend vuur dat over de aarde liep.
DOES THIS PAINTING PROVE ALIENS WERE PRESENT DURING CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION?
DOES THIS PAINTING PROVE ALIENS WERE PRESENT DURING CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION?
One of craziest theories by UFO enthusiasts is the presence of aliens and UFOs during the time of Jesus Christ. Many claim Jesus was actually an extraterrestrial visitor and that his phenomenal powers were that of a non-human entity.
Another crazy theory is that Jesus Christ was actually a shapeshifter. But this theory is backed by ancient texts found in Egypt that are now stored in the organ Library and Museum in New York City.
The texts say that Jesus sometimes took the form of an old man, sometimes a young man, etc.
Another fascinating theory tells of UFOs being present during the crucifixion. If we look at the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral's fresco of the Christ's crucifixion we can spot two strange object in the upper corners. It resembles something like an UFO, although historians say that it could represent guardian angels.
ISS SPOTTED GIGANTIC ALIEN MOTHERSHIP DURING LIVE FEED
ISS SPOTTED GIGANTIC ALIEN MOTHERSHIP DURING LIVE FEED
Footage has emerged online of what many UFO researchers are referring to as an alien ‘megaship’ which was spotted on the NASA live feed of the region of space in proximity to the International Space Station (ISS).
The mysterious object in question was first spotted by a YouTube user who operates under the handle of StreetCap1 who was monitoring the live stream of the ISS at the time.
CIGAR SHAPED ‘MEGASHIP’ SPOTTED ON ISS FEED
“I thought I saw things, ” he wrote underneath the video in which a distinctive cigar shaped UFO can be seen hovering over the horizon of Earth in the region close to the space station. After he took screenshots and selections of the feed and uploaded them to his YouTube channel his images caused something of an internet storm, with some eagle eyed viewers noting that there were some peculiar orbs positioned underneath the supposed ‘megaship’ in the video. StreetCap1 noted that he had to be very quick when it came to taking pictures of the mysterious object as the live stream immediately dimmed and became poorer in quality almost as soon as the presumed craft appeared on screen. UFO researchers claim that this is a regular tactic employed by NASA or other agents to ensure that the general public is not given clear images of alien visitors to this solar system.
The video caught the attention of Tyler Glocker, the creator of the Secure Team 10, who has a great deal of experience when it comes to UFO sightings. He said that it is very clear that there are ‘anomalous objects’ in the video including the long cigar-shaped UFO and reflective looking orbs. He said that it was very likely that while NASA released these low image resolution photographs to the public that they had their own high-resolution images which they were keeping for their own inter-departmental analysis.
According to Glockner, it is not unusual for mysterious objects such as the one spotted in this video to appear on the ISS live feeds. He claims to have seen UFOs on numerous occasions after monitoring hundreds of sessions of these particular feeds. However, despite the regularity of these incidents, NASA and the other space agencies that operate out of the ISS generally refuse to address the issues or to make comments to the public about what the objects could be.

Cosmonauts Spotted UFO on MIR mission
Cosmonaut Gennadij Strekhalov states on the last two flights I saw something. During the flight of 1990, I called Gennadij Manakov, our commander: “Come to the porthole”. Unfortunately, but this is typical, we did not manage to put a film in the camera quickly enough to film it. We looked on Newfoundland. The atmosphere was completely clear. And suddenly a kind of sphere appeared. I want to compare it with a Christmas tree decoration, beautiful, shiny, and glittering. I saw it for ten seconds. The sphere appeared in the same way as it disappeared again. What it was and what size it had, I don’t know. There was nothing I could compare it with. I was like struck by lightning by this phenomenon. It was a perfect sphere, glittering like a Christmas tree decoration. I reported to the Mission Control Center, but I did not say that I have seen a UFO. I said I saw a kind of unusual phenomenon. I had to be careful with the choice of my words. I don’t want someone to speculate too much or quote me wrong. Thanks to Paul Stonehill
Our Sun is a Binary Star?
The Binary Research Institute (BRI) has found that orbital characteristics of the recent discovery of Sedna, a large minor planet in the outer reach of the Solar System by Cal Tech astronomer. “Sedna”, demonstrate the possibility that our sun might be part of a binary star system. A binary star system consists of two stars gravitation-ally bound orbiting a common center of mass. Binary stars are now considered to be common in the Milky Way galaxy.
University of California Berkeley said on June 13, 2017 that our sun “almost certainly” was born in the company of a twin, though not an identical twin. What’s more, according to this new research study, every other sun like star in the universe was born with a sibling, also. This assertion is based on a radio survey of the Perseus molecular cloud, which is a giant cloud in space known to be forming new binary stars located 600 light-years away. And it’s based on a mathematical model that can explain astronomers’ observations of the Perseus molecular cloud only if all sun like stars are born with a companion.
Astronomers have searched for a companion to our sun. Along the way, this hypothetical companion was dubbed Nemesis for the Greek goddess of retribution – because the sun’s sibling was supposed to have kicked an asteroid into Earth’s orbit that collided with our planet and exterminated the dinosaurs. A Nemesis-type star in our own solar system has never been found, however. In recent years, the name has popped up mostly doomsday conspiracy theories, where an unseen and undiscovered star “companion to our sun periodically rains comets down on Earth.
Meanwhile, Steven Stahler, a UC Berkeley research astronomer, we are saying, yes, there probably was a Nemesis, a long time ago. The data was one in which all stars form initially as wide binaries. These systems then either shrink or may break apart.
Sedna provides what could be indirect physical evidence of a solar companion. Matching the recent findings by Dr. Brown, showing that Sedna moves in a highly unusual elliptical orbit, Cruttenden has determined that Sedna moves in resonance with previously published orbital data for a hypothetical companion star.
Dr. Brown stated: “Sedna shouldn’t be there. There’s no way to put Sedna where it is. It never comes close enough to be affected by the sun, but it never goes far enough away from the sun to be affected by other stars. Sedna is stuck, frozen in place; there’s no way to move it, basically there’s no way to put it there — unless it formed there. But it’s in a very elliptical orbit like that. It simply can’t be there. There’s no possible way – except it is. So how and when?”
“I’m thinking it was placed there in the earliest history of the solar system. I’m thinking it could have gotten there if there used to be stars a lot closer than they are now and those stars affected Sedna on the outer part of its orbit and then later on moved away. So I call Sedna a fossil record of the earliest solar system. Walter Cruttenden agrees that Sedna’s highly elliptical orbit is very unusual, but noted that the orbit period of 12,000 years is in neat resonance with the expected orbit periodicity of a companion star as outlined in several prior papers. Consequently, Cruttenden believes that Sedna’s unusual orbit is something indicative of the current solar system configuration, not merely a historical record. “It is hard to imagine that Sedna would retain its highly elliptical orbit pattern since the beginning of the solar system billions of years ago. Because eccentricity would likely fade with time, it is logical to assume Sedna is telling us something about current, albeit unexpected solar system forces, most probably a companion star”.
Cruttenden’s book “Lost Star of Myth and Time“, which outlines historical references and the modern search for the elusive companion, the possibility of a binary partner star to our sun has been left to the halls of academia. But with Dr. Brown’s discoveries of Sedna and Xena, (now confirmed to be larger than Pluto), and timing observations like Cruttenden’s, the search for a companion star may be gaining momentum.

Whose Spaceships Are Flying in Orbit Around Earth?
There are huge craft in orbit around the Earth. Governments of the Earth deny their ability to operate anti-gravity craft. Assuming they are telling the truth, nations of the Earth only have the International Space Station in orbit. The Obama Administration stopped the Shuttles flying and is spending a billion dollars to fly US astronauts aboard Russian Rockets to the ISS and purchasing Russian Rocket engines. So a billion dollar bill infers that these orbiting craft do not belong to the US. These huge ships could be an Interstellar migration of aliens who have an interest in watching humans and the plant and animal life on this planet. They could be here to help or to take advantage of our tribal warfare. There is evidence of mining going on under the ocean and on the moon. Present day telescopes, radars, space fence can pick up the large craft circling Earth. The ISS regularly takes video and photographs of objects in space. David Wilcock, Corey Goode, and William Tompkins claim that at least some these ships belong to the United States/:
We speculate that the images John is taking are large space ships belonging to the United States, although they may belong to other countries or alien intruders. There is also indication that several countries are working together to down alien intruders. Thanks to John Walson
Professor Gerry Gilmore writes to John Walson, Again my congratulations on your superb astrophotography. John is clearly getting images at almost the diffraction limit of his telescope. In the very sharpest images there are hints of diffraction rings visible on the edges of the satellites. That is of course the absolute limit of optical performance, and is only rarely attained. Interestingly, the process you have, of using a high-quality imaging system, with fast read-out, and then selecting the rare `perfect’ images is something which has been developed and applied somewhat by one of my colleagues here.
You might like to look at our local web page presenting some of this: link to www.ast.cam.ac.uk. Thank you for the images: once again they show that you are an excellent photographer. There are of course many satellites in orbit, only a few of which are anything to do with JPL, but these are readily seen by astro-photographers like you all over the world.
You should just enjoy the excellence of your images, and make them available as widely as is possible to the public, so you can get the credit you deserve for your skills. Regards Professor Gerry Gilmore Experimental Philosophy. Institute of Astronomy direct Cambridge University PA.
Note: John needs to go to an area with less light and cleaner atmosphere. You can help obtain even better images by helping him purchase a van to travel to better locations. gofundme link here. GoFundMe or PayPal
Spaceship Orbiting Mars
Here is a great capture of a UFO shooting past the Mars Curiosity Rover on May 4, 2017. The UFO is long and well lit up from one of the Mars moons. At least, it looks like a moon, except for the beam of light coming from it. The UFO passes just below it and the sunlight bouncing off the moon hits the UFO. Rovers don’t lie, they just record what they see and transmit to Earth. They have no feelings, no emotions, no reservations, just pure tech. It’s a terrific find by Streetcap1.
Baalbek in Lebanon the Largest Known Megalithic Stone in the World
The Stone of the South’ at Baalbek, Lebanon is the largest worked monolith on Earth, weighing in at a staggering 1242 tons. It is even heavier than the ‘Stone of the Pregnant Woman’ which weighs an estimated 1000 tons, that sits on the other side of the road in the quarry. Neither of these stones made it to the main ‘Temple of Jupiter’, some 900 meters to the northeast, but some 400-ton and 800-ton stones did make their way to the temple, were raised 20 feet in to the air and were placed with machine-like precision into the foundations of this mighty ancient complex. Last week, Janine Abdel Massih and her team uncovered a further
monolith that sits virtually underneath ‘The Stone of the Pregnant Woman’ that was once destined for the main Temple site (see featured image). Until recently, it was buried under a few feet of dirt, and has been measured at 19.6 meters long, 6 meters wide and 5.5 meters thick. “Because we have not yet reached the bottom of the rock to be completely cleared,” Janine Abdel Massih said, “we have no idea of the volume or complete dimension of this ancient stone.” (1). The outline of it can be seen in these images, and shows a kind of precision we find in ancient Peru and Egypt. The discovery of this new monolith, just adds another level of mystery to the situation, as it sits virtually ‘under’ the ‘The Stone of the Pregnant Woman’, and would have had to have been lifted out, after this other 1000 ton block was moved. Zecharia Sitchin who wrote the Earth Chronicles series told me Baalbek was an alien launching and landing site.
Sounds of the Manta Ray UFO
Dr. Bruce Cornet has sent some interesting sounds of craft he recorded over New York and New Jersey..
The 4000 year old Beauty of Loulan of China
Loulan was discovered in 1980, but it was 3800 years ago that she died in China on the trade route known as the Silk Road. The natural dryness and salty soil preserved her and over two hundred other mummies, who had lived in settlements along the trade route. The mummy has been called the Loulan Beauty because of her amazingly preserved stately facial features. Light hair that have remained quite beautiful even in death.
The Chinese government has been reluctant to allow full access to the mummies because of their Caucasian identity. The Tarim mummies look more European than Asian and may be descendants of the original inhabitants of the area and not later arrivals, as Chinese history claims.
Victor Mair, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, was instrumental in getting access to these mummies’ genetic samples in 1993. Their findings revealed that the mummies are indeed European but they probably migrated from the Siberian region. Mainstream historians have always had the concept that early people were not world travelers when in fact most evidence points to just the opposite. Loulan’s people are clearly of Caucasian descent and their grave goods suggest that they were probably merchants of textiles.
The settlements along the Silk Road might very well have been meeting points where merchants from the west traded their goods for goods from the East. Pliny the Elder described the traders from this area as tall with golden flaxen hair and blue eyes. Loulan herself lived to be about 40 to 45. One of the mummies, the Yingpan Man, was six feet six inches tall and wore a red tunic with gold embroidery. He also wore a gold foil burial mask.
She probably died from lung disease and was buried in well-made woven clothing. Some of the mummies are actually wearing plaid patterned loomed cloth. Many of the mummies are tattooed like modern tattooing and one female has crescent moons and ovals tattooed on her face. A male mummy known as the Chrechen Man has sun tattoos on his temples, although the tattoos could represent UFOs. It is known that the ancient people rode horses, used chariots and had at least some medical knowledge.
World’s Largest X-band Radar
Raytheon’s nine-story-high X-band Radar (XBR) is the world’s largest X-band radar that can track UFOs.
The sea-based X-band (SBX) platform that it sits on stands more than 250 feet high and displaces more than 50,000 tons. It consists of a semi-submersible oil production platform topped with the XBR.
XBR is the primary payload on the semi-submersible platform supporting the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense phase of the Missile Defense Agency Ballistic Missile Defense System.
SBX’s floating platform, a modified oil-drilling vessel, was designed for exceptional stability in high winds and storms. Measuring 240 feet wide and 390 feet long, the vessel includes a power plant, bridge and control rooms, living quarters, storage areas, and enough floor space and infrastructure to support the X-band Radar.
The X-band Radar itself, which sits on top of the floating platform, is the largest, most sophisticated phased array, electro-mechanically steered X-band radar in the world.
It consists of thousands of elements driven by transmit/receive (T/R) modules. In the X-band Radar, they provide the full fire control sensor functions for the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense system, including search, acquisition, tracking, discrimination and kill assessment.
Thom Reed UFO Monument Park
The Thom Reed UFO Monument Park was established with the thought of the community of Sheffield, Massachusettes in mind. The UFO incident that occurred on September 1, 1969 was verified and ruled by the Great Barrington Historical Society as “historically significant and true”. This was preceded by the Governor’s two citations inducting the incident and Thom Reed into United States history in 2015 along with the unveiling of the 5000 pound monument.
Coverage was provided by the Boston Globe and ABC News NY. During the time of the incident Thom Reed and his family received some criticism over their experience but the town of Sheffield did not waver in what they witnessed due to eyewitness reports and coverage by Great Barrington’s own WSBS radio airing the sightings. Many traveled from across the states to visit the location of the incident and see the monument due to its listings on road side attractions websites. Shawn Stowe, owner of Inspirational Talent Management came upon the numerous televised programs about the case and knew that something needed to be done to make sure that this area became a permanent part of history and provide a thank you to the town of Sheffield for coming forward with their eyewitness accounts despite criticism and backlash.
The area at the time was just a monument and a marker of where the incident had occurred which was significant in itself and at risk of being forgotten. Shawn reached out to numerous television celebrities and The Roswell UFO Museum for financial backing for the dream of establishing this beautiful waterside park that needed to be preserved and improved to commemorate the event.
The plan was to put a few benches in the park with plaques that the town could enjoy as well as be a part of history overall. Ben Hansen from Fact or Faked, Travis Walton from Fire in the Sky and the Roswell UFO Museum were excited to get on board. Once the funding came through, Shawn reached out to Thom Reed to let him know of her plans to establish the first historical UFO Park to be inducted into United States History in the town of Sheffield dedicated to him. Reed was extremely grateful and humbled by her excitement over developing the area that definitely needed someone to get behind it. Phase one was officially in motion…the benches were transported to the incident location with the sponsor plaques on them and cleaning up of the area from winter began. Phase two was just put underway in June when a large outpouring of support from the community incited another visit to the park. A donation of two solar lights were given by Gary Holloway and placed in the park on June 10, 2017. The area was also expanded further and the monument that had been vandalized was refinished. There are countless plans for further development of The Thom Reed UFO Monument Park in the near future including a picnic table, fencing and more expansion.
We are extremely excited that the town of Sheffield has been so courageous to get behind the new developments. If you would like to get involved with the park please visit www.ufomonumentpark.com and click on the sponsor page. Anyone who donates to the park regardless of the size of the donation will be listed on a sign in the park and in a book that is currently being co-written by Thom Reed and Brent Smith. This year Paraween, an event taking place during Haunted Happenings on October 21, 2017 at the Salem Waterfront Hotel and Suites will be paying tribute and discussing the Thom Reed UFO Monument Park with a speaker from Roswell UFO Museum and a local historian. To purchase tickets please visit www.paraween.com. For more information or to sponsor something at the park please contact Shawn Stowe at info@inspirationaltalentmanagement.com
Fake News Poll
The new YouGov poll finds: “The rise of fake news, a growing multitude of media sources and an increasingly polarized nation have Americans learning to take their headlines with a grain of salt.” or several grains. Perhaps predictably, Republicans and members of that other party both see bias in news media — but to differing degrees. More than eight-of-ten Republicans (85%) see media bias while about one-of-two Democrats do (52%). http://hotair.com/archives/2017/06/22/media-bias-poll-finds-broad-bipartisan-agreement.
Fake News Fails to Report NY Mayor de Basio is Rioting in Hamburg Riots
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) flew to Germany this week to participate in an anti Capitalism protest, drawing criticism for leaving after a Bronx police officer was killed. ABC and NBC failed to mention he was one of the rioters that set fires, looting, and injuries to 200 police officers.
The event coincides with a summit attended by world leaders in Hamburg that aims to strengthen technological innovation and employment. De Blasio’s trip immediately raised questions from political opponents and from the city’s police union, which has had a strained relationship with de Blasio.
On Thursday the Mayor skipped an NYPD swearing-in ceremony made somber by this week’s assassination of a cop. Ed Mullins president of the Sergeants Benevolent Association told The Washington Post, “You’ve chosen to leave while the city is mourning. I just don’t understand what he’s thinking,” De Blasio left the day after Officer Miosotis Familia was fatally shot while sitting in a police vehicle in the Bronx early Wednesday morning. Mullins questioned the purpose of the trip, saying de Blasio’s job is in New York City, not abroad. Fox and One American News showed what appeared to DeBasio in the front of the rioters that desire to stop capitalism.
In another story not carried in national news, Isabel Martinez, 33, an illegal immigrant knifed to death her husband and four children under ten. A fifth child is in critical .condition.They did cover an alligator that bit a man on the arm. Note UFOs, Illegal immigrant killings and drug busts, police and military funerals, Christian or Jewish success is virtually never covered in the evening news.

Filer’s Files #28 – 2017 Cosmonauts saw UFOs - PART II
UFO Sightings in the United States
Arizona Objects
Havasu City — I fly weekly, so I’ve seen a lot in my years of travel. I suddenly caught a shining bright light from my corner vision. It had a golden shine as video may indicate. We had just passed Lake Havasu at an altitude of 29,000 feet at approximately 484 mph ground speed. The objects were moving in what seemed a NW direction as shown on video. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Scottsdale — My friend and I were out on the patio looking for nearby fireworks and were disappointed as they were all far away on July 4, 2017. I spotted what looked to be a firework with a trail coming straight down out of the sky about a mile away. I got my friend’s attention thinking it was about to explode and begin a nearby fireworks show. To our amazement it stopped and sat still for a few seconds while still shining bright. I pulled out my phone as we both wondered what it was.
The object began to move horizontally while emitting a trail sparks. I captured a short video where the orangish trail is visible. A few seconds later an identical object appeared above and to the right of the first object. My friend and I are still in amazement over what we saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California B-1 and Disc
Glendale – I photographed a B-1 bomber doing a flyby at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California on January 2, 2012.
The .photo was taken from Glendale. I could see the bomber but could not see the disc with my naked eye, but I saw them in the photo…..what is that?
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Object
Buckley— While compiling a brief report on the devastating hail storm of May 8, 2017, over Denver, I came across this photo looking NNW at an approaching storm. This was over Buckley AFB the primary US missile tracking station. If you look above the left side of the geodomes on the site, close to the top of the photo, there is an apparent object that looks like a disc, angled at 45 degrees. On magnification it appears to have a central dome. I have been a professional observer air traffic controller for many years from control towers and didn’t recognize that object as an aircraft. There is no tail assembly and the angle of bank is severe for a commercial aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Lights
Siesta Key– On June 17, 2017, at sunset a round ball of light flew across the sky at very fast speeds. It changed directions quickly and disappeared into the water. It was captured on three different I-phones.
It was at sunset on a private beach with 60 to 70 people when we noticed it when we were taking photos. Two others with us were able to capture photos as well. It was moving super fast and then seemed to dive into the ocean.
Note: The witnesses apparently saw the object. This is not the result of anomalies showing up in the background of videos or photos.
Update –It appears that the object was only seen through camera lenses. Given this scenario the object is likely a lens flare. The original report strongly suggested that the object was seen and then videos were taken. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Iowa Light
Marion – The first of four consecutive sightings, within 20 minutes at a party on July 3, 2017 We were watching fireworks going off to the west at 8:45 pm. We saw a large reddish-orange very bright glowing in the sky at the end of the street, just to the left/and south of the fireworks. There was no trail like would come with a firework. I knew it was something strange that looked slightly hazy. It hovered for about two minutes. I grabbed my cell phone intending to video but only took a photo! The orb was the same size as the moon, but slowly got smaller until it was invisible. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Minnesota Light
Moorhead— At around 9:30 Pm I was heading outside to watch fireworks, and noticed a strange glowing red/orange light through the window to the North on July 4, 2017. I felt excited, and I knew it wasn’t a plane or a firework. I went outside to see another one much closer to the South. It flew directly over my head traveling North at e 35 – 45 mph? Over the next hour and a half I saw at least 6 more at different times. All seemed to be travelling north. I stopped seeing them about the 11 pm, when a thunderstorm arrived. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mississippi Green Light
Lucedale – I attended my local fireworks show last night on July 4, 2017, and began taking a few pictures with my mobile phone once the show started. I noticed nothing unusual until I got home and began uploading my photos to my tablet. Upon observation, I noticed an unusual anomaly to the left of the fireworks display. It was a green, half-circle shape that appeared to be glowing. It was in all of the photos I took. I also noticed once zoomed in that a second anomaly appears to be to the upper left of the very visible one. It was too big to be a drone, and was completely stationary but the second one possibly moved. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Missouri Object
Kansas City — I was with a few of my friends overlooking the city and took a picture on Snapchat. I swiped right a couple of times to find the right filter, posted it and kind of forgot about it. That is until I looked at the picture again in the morning and noticed something I hadn’t seen before. In the middle left just above the city you can see three faint lights in the shape of a triangle that I am positive were not stars or a plane, that because we didn’t even see the lights with our naked eyes. I decided to put the picture through a few other filters on an application on my desktop and could make out a kind of rim that was connecting the lights. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Hampshire Orange Lights
Keene— On June 21, 2017, at 3:35 AM, I saw two bright reddish-orange lights in the sky. They looked like two bright planets. They were far apart, but moving slowly at the same speed northwest. There was no sound or flashing. One of them vanished first and the second one vanished shortly after. I tried to get pictures, but I only got one blurry one. Of course my camera zoom wouldn’t function right. I have always been a skeptic about UFO’s and need some kind of explanation, but I am baffled by this one. I have never seen anything like it. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
New Jersey Object
Perth Amboy — We were driving over the outer bridge in New Jersey on July 1, 2017.
There were so many rainbows so I started taking photos. Then I noticed the strange objects in the photos.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Avalon— My wife and I returned to our beach house after dinner on Saturday, June 24, 2017. I looked up at the sky and saw three objects in formation the size of a bright planet flying from SW to NE, headed out over the ocean at 10:12 pm. They flew rather slowly and several seconds later, four more identical objects also in formation flew over. Then more objects flew over, one-by-one. They kept coming silently until we finally counted a total of 15. They were almost directly overhead flying straight and level, nothing about them suggested they might be aircraft. The entire episode lasted a few minutes. I called the Coast Guard Station in Cape May, New Jersey and reported what happened. They asked many questions, and said they would call back, which they never did. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Orb
Lincoln City — This was taken at Road’s End State Park, on June 23, 2017 just after sunset at 9:06 PM. The streak just hovered, and then slowly moved across the sky. It was to the west. At first I thought it was a comet, but it was moving way too slow. Then, I thought maybe it could be a plane or a jet streak, but it was just hovering before moving. It moved slowly across the sky before fading in about 6 or 7 minutes. I didn’t time it. I just watched it.
Note:The photo appears to show an aircraft with a short contrail over the Pacific Ocean. The short contrail could be the result of a dry atmospheric resulting in evaporation of the contrail shortly after formation. However, the witness stated that the “streak” hovered and then moved. This casts some doubt on this explanation. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Pennsylvania Object
Lancaster – I had just left work at 7 pm and entered Route 30W from Rou 340 when I noticed an object floating in the air to my right through the passenger window on June 29, 2017. I never saw any wings so I thought it might be a lost Mylar helium balloon but it appeared too angular and changed direction. I pulled off the next exit at Greenfield Road and after pulling on to the shoulder a tree obstructed my view. I took a picture and a short video zoomed all the way in with my Samsung S7 cell phone. It seemed to hover and then move slowly east, then changes direction and moved west. It was a slightly angular/boxy/diamond shape and may have had a gray or silver diagonal line/angle from its top left to the bottom right. When I got to the top of the ramp the object was no longer to be seen. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas lights
Houston — I was heading home from Houston in an airplane on July 3, 2017, when the captain called over saying that we were 10,000 feet. I looked out the window and saw lights over the city and took a picture. When I went to lift up my phone to take another picture, it was gone without a trace. It was about 21:30 at night. The cabin was 90% black. In the photo the reflection of the phone faintly overlaid the lights, debunking that they were cabin reflections. It was too high to be fireworks and too close to be stars and to far and small to even be lights from the cabin. There were 8-9 lights all in a boomerang or triangle pattern. When I zoom in the lights look to have a windows with a vertical bar that separates them like a household window. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Canada Light
Ajax— My husband and I were out for a walk on the Ajax Waterfront Trail at 8:10 pm. on Saturday, June 24, 2017 when I noticed a faint rainbow in the distance and tried to photograph it. I pulled out my cell phone and took two photos. The sun was blinding so I couldn’t really see my screen very well, so I just put it back in my purse without reviewing the pictures.
On Monday, I finally looked at the photos and the rainbow was barely visible, but I noticed a perfectly spherical cloud with what appeared to be lights inside it. I checked the second photo to find the same spherical cloud. Both photos were taken within seconds of each other, and the sphere is lower in the first picture, and has 6 lights visible. Higher in the second picture the sphere has only 4 lights visible. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Toronto — Saw this object near the CN Tower down at the harbor front on July 2nd, 2017, around 5 pm. What do you think it is? Thanks to Paul Shishis
AB — There is a small airport where some biplanes were flying around in the late afternoon on June 18, 2017. I took a picture of one flying over some buildings beside the small airfield. It was around 3:30 pm. and sunny with clouds. When I looked at the photo later I noticed something behind the aircraft. At the time I took the picture there was only the biplane flying just above it, I used an iPhone 5. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Columbia Light
Armenia, Quindio — On May 28, 2017, I was in the living room of my house experimenting with an infrared lens in my tablet camera. I started recording from 2:30 until 5:30 pm, of .10 videos for a test. Later I examined the videos to see what I had captured with the infrared lens. In two of the 10 videos I could see luminous translucent spheres. In one of those two videos I could see with astonishment as in the first three minutes a strange gray-silvered object flies past at high speed. At 3:54 a second luminous sphere appears in the shot. Retaining such amazing speed, the object appears on top of the small cloud. The object descends quickly, and emits a flash of light which is captured with great clarity.
The high speed object makes a sharp turn to the right and emits a flash of bluish light which seems to be some kind of pulsation produced by the energy that propels it. It may be a kind of electromagnetic force or Parisian pulsation affect. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Zealand Cigar
Most nights I’m outside in the early hours, looking at the sky. I’ve sent two pictures to show it’s real. The first photo shows a cylinder, the second is where I’ve been able to blow it up and print the cigar picture. The area I live in is a hotspot for ufos. I live in the mountains and most nights I see something. But these things go so fast it’s almost impossible to photograph them. You mostly see them when you have no camera or the bloody camera doesn’t work in darkness. I have a set of IR monocular that can see 500 miles into space and the things I see are amazing. I have many pictures I’ve taken of UFOs with my Canon Camera. Thanks to Pete
Russia Light
Izhevsk – There was rain and strong fog tonight on July2, 2017. I was watching sky from my balcony with my girlfriend and little niece. I saw the strange bright light shine over a construction crane in the distance. I have long tried to understand what the object is. After the object divided into two parts – the first part disappeared in few seconds. My girlfriend and little niece were afraid. I took the phone and got the photo of second object. This object hovered over the crane for few minutes. The tried to get a video, but the video was worse as the object disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Spain Light
Ibiza— I was just outside San Antonio and was taking a picture of the sunset. I had no idea of the object at the time and only noticed it later when looking at the photos I’d taken.
Having zoomed in on the anomaly it appears to be an actual object that I simply cannot explain. The picture was taken on a Samsung S6 phone.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Turkey Object
Denizli — We were sitting on the back balcony as we always do with my sister on July 7, 2017. I always like watching the sky and especially the moon. Then, suddenly, under the moon, the object flew too deep and sometimes straight, at very high speed. I could not follow the object because the balcony ended there. The object is exactly as I pictured it. It did not make any noise; and was too fast to be a plane.
I had a very strange dream when I slept 2 hours later. I had two white, unicorn winged, very bright light horses in my dream, and these horses were approaching me trying to tell me something as if they wanted me to touch them. I had the same dream 3-4 times a few hours each night. But I awoke when I would touch them and tell me something. I hope it’s useful. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Lights
South Leicestershire — 8.35 AM, I was making myself a cup tea and went outside in the garden to talk to my dad. It was a beautiful morning, with a clear blue sky and I noticed a bright star like light appear from behind a row of trees on June 17, 2017. It was travelling from the west to the east in a straight line towards the morning sun. I rushed to get my camera and took some photos. The object was moving from right to left from my point of view and must have been very high. Eventually it disappeared; I did try to find it again from the front of my house but couldn’t see it. When I zoomed in digitally afterwards I saw something really bizarre. A very bright (reflective?) object that seems to be kind of a vertical to the horizon hoop shape. When looking at the 20 photographs afterwards I also noticed a blurry spot (in the white circle) and saw that it moved from right to left and then disappeared when just below the main object. This is by far the strangest thing I’ve ever seen. I used a Nixon D5300 Camera with a Tamron 70-300mm lens. Thanks to MUFON CMS

MYSTERY OBJECT 1991 VG SET TO PASS EARTH IN 2017 COULD BE AN ALIEN UFO EXPLORING OUR SOLAR SYSTEM ACCORDING TO ASTRONOMERS
MYSTERY OBJECT 1991 VG SET TO PASS EARTH IN 2017 COULD BE AN ALIEN UFO EXPLORING OUR SOLAR SYSTEM ACCORDING TO ASTRONOMERS
A mysterious object, 1991 VG, which has left scientists scratching their heads since it was first discovered by astronomer James Scotti in November 6, 1991, will pass Earth in the summer of 2017. Based on its unusual features and properties, some scientists considered 1991 VG a candidate object in the ongoing search for an alien spacecraft or probe in our solar system at the time it was first discovered.
Scotti discovered the mysterious, small, fast moving space object with unusual features in November 1991 while searching the skies for asteroids at the University of Arizona’s Kitt Peak National observatory.
The object, only about 10 meters in diameter, exhibited strange properties that raised the astronomer’s suspicion. It moved faster than expected for a space object its size and had an unusually fast rate of rotation. It also exhibited an anomalous pattern of brightness variation that suggested it was not an ordinary main-belt asteroid, according to Motherboard.
Scotti tracked the mysterious object for two nights, collecting data needed to plot its orbit. He was surprised to find that it had a heliocentric orbit strikingly similar similar to Earth’s. He was also surprised to find that it was due to brush past Earth at a distance of 280,000 miles the following month and that it had already passed close to Earth at least once in the past. Data plotting 1991 VG’s orbital trajectory showed that it passed Earth around March 1975.
The information was surprising because 1991 VG was the only known “asteroid-like” body with a heliocenteric orbit similar to Earth’s, according to NASA. And although small asteroids passing close to Earth are not uncommon, they tend to be very short-lived because they are prone to impacting the planet or be thrown out into a different orbital path by Earth’s gravitation field.
In short, 1991 VG’s combination of properties and features suggested to Scotti and his colleagues that it could be an artificial object built by someone and launched to space. But although the scientists admitted frankly that 1991 VG could be an alien spacecraft or probe operating in our solar system, they were unwilling to concede the suggestion without overwhelming evidence supporting it. The scientists thus looked instead at the possibility that it was a part or section of a man-made craft — such as an Apollo 12 rocket — launched into space decades ago.
Scotti, however, acknowledged that researchers were pushed further towards admitting unreservedly that 1991 VG could be an alien spacecraft after eliminating practically all possible man-made spacecraft and rocket bodies that might be 1991 VG.
“There were a few possible spacecraft and rocket bodies that might be 1991 VG, but when we looked into each, we were able to eliminate each of them.”
Still unwilling to concede the likelihood that 1991 VG could be an alien spacecraft, researchers began investigating the possibility that it could be a small asteroid with unusual features that simulate an artificial space probe.
Despite scientists’ reservations about declaring the object an alien probe ahead of irrefutable evidence that could emerge during observation as it passes close to Earth in the summer 2017, there was excitement among members of the online UFO community who hoped that we could obtain irrefutable evidence of UFOs and extraterrestrial life when 1991 VG passes close to Earth later in 2017.
But skeptics suggested in a Reddit forum that 1991 VG could be a rocket that the Soviets launched secretly into space during the Cold War.
“The Soviets had rockets as powerful as American rockets, were quite fond of covering things up when they went badly, and were attempting to get to the moon themselves,” a skeptic argued on Reddit.
“It is plausible that a forgotten Russian mission resulted in this object.”
However, conspiracy theory speculation that 1991 VG could be an alien spacecraft positioned in heliocentric orbit to collect data about conditions on Earth during regular flybys got a big boost when, in 1995, Duncan Steel, an astronomer at the University of Adelaide, argued in an article published in The Observatory that evidence appeared to support the alien probe theory.
According to Steele, the fact that no known “man-made rocket bodies left in heliocentric orbits during the space age have purely gravitational orbits returning to the Earth [in November of 1991]” meant that the mysterious object could be regarded as a prime candidate as an alien space probe exploring our solar system.
“It might be argued that 1991 VG is a candidate as an alien probe observed in the vicinity of our planet.”
But Steele attempted to douse the flaring flames of conspiracy theory speculation by arguing that he raised the theory that 1991 VG could be an alien artifact only as way of finding a more likely alternative explanation. He argued subsequently that 1991 VG was more likely a man-made object, such as a section of an Apollo 12 rocket.
“I do not think [VG 1991] is of extraterrestrial origin,” Steel said, according to Motherboard. “I do think that we should take seriously the possibility that there are alien artifacts in the solar system, although I very much doubt that there are any, based on what we know so far.”
But conspiracy theorists dismissed Steel’s arguments, saying that he was merely engaging in double-talk out of fear that subscribing unreservedly to the alien object explanation of 1991 VG could expose him to censure by his professional colleagues. According to conspiracy theorists and Search for Extraterrestrial Artifacts (SETA) enthusiasts, it is likely that close observation of 1991 VG during the next flyby in the summer of 2017 will prove that it is an alien spacecraft or probe exploring our solar system.
But other astronomers, such as Scotti, insisted that close observation during the flyby in 2017 will likely show that 1991 VG is a natural space object, such as a small asteroid. But some researchers pointed out that the natural object theory was contradicted by the pattern of brightness fluctuation of 1991 VG at the time it was observed. The pattern of variation in brightness suggested that 1991 VG was rotating very rapidly. According to experts, a natural body rotating as fast as 1991 VG would likely fly apart due to excessive centrifugal forces.
But subsequent research showed that small asteroids under 100 feet with monolithic structures are able to rotate very fast without disintegrating. This increased the chances that 1991 VG is a small monolithic space rock.
“Where did 1991 VG come from and how did it get into its present orbit?” Scotti mused while exploring the possibility that 1991 VG is small asteroid with a monolithic structure. “One possibility would be that it is ejecta from a lunar impact. Another possibility is that the Yarkovsky force, caused by the thermal emissions of a rotating object, systematically pushed the object around over long times. It’s still a puzzle!”
But scientists hope that the puzzle will be resolved in the summer of 2017 when 1991 VG makes another Earth flyby. Meanwhile, alien hunters are holding their breath in anticipation of a major breakthrough in the decades-old search for extraterrestrial artifacts (SETA).
Space object 1991 VG will be observable from the southern hemisphere during its next flyby in the summer of 2017.

DO ALIENS EXIST? MOST COMPELLING EVIDENCE OF ALIEN EXISTENCE
DO ALIENS EXIST? MOST COMPELLING EVIDENCE OF ALIEN EXISTENCE
Some say it’s obvious we’re not alone, others scorn the very idea and still others yet will hauntingly report their own experiences of alien probings following their casual night-time stroll through the fields of small town America. But with everything from increasingly bizarre reportings from increasingly credible sources, to basic mathematical probability suggesting the likelihood of alien life, these days, scepticism is harder won. Whatever your opinions, you may well find that the following examples have some impact on them.
ANCIENT EVIDENCE
It’s easy enough to write off much recent phenomena, quoting anything from wayward weather balloons to the perpetuation of the legend and UFO sightings in pop culture providing a cohesive image of extra terrestrials for eye witnesses to draw on should someone cry alien. But what’s slightly harder to dismiss is the ancient evidence (i.e. pre the National Enquirer). Enter the ‘The Madonna with Saint Giovannino’, otherwise known as the UFO painting.
The Madonna with Saint Giovannino - Arcangelo di Jacopo del Sellaio [FAL], via Wikimedia Commons
Created in the 15th century, it depicts the Virgin Mary and in the backdrop of the painting, a man and his dog staring up at a hovering disk-like object that is suspiciously familiar. And this painting isn’t alone either, with everything from ancient cave paintings to Sanskrit Scrolls all depicting alien life. A sighting even crops up in the Bible in The Book of Ezekiel. Either this is compelling evidence, or humanity has a rich tradition of conspiracy theorists.
In the ancient city of Paracas, Peru, archeologists have uncovered mummified remains with elongated skulls dating back to 300 BC.
Back in 1961, astronomer Frank Drake devised an equation by which he could estimate the likelihood of the existence of alien life, taking into account a number of factors including the average number of planets able to support life and the fraction that could go on to support intelligent life. This was then implemented in 2001. The result: statistically, hundreds of thousands of such planets should technically exist.
UNSOLVED SIGHTINGS
There are more registered sightings of UFOs than there is the word count here to deal with them and the majority of the time, there’s a thorough debunking accompanying them. But throughout history there have been a number that have been harder to explain away, from the to 1853 sighting by a number of students and professors at the Tennessee College campus, to the oft quoted Stephenville Lights case from 2008, with over 200 witnesses spotting the UFO including three policemen who remained anonymous. Consider these compelling cases unsolved.
If you’re going to believe any reports of UFOs, you might as well trust those coming from the men who have actually been to space (who usually also come with all their teeth and a P.H.D.). The list of those who have made claims of sightings includes Edgar Mitchell, Cady Coleman and Dr. Brian O’Leary, many also referencing government knowledge of alien existence and cover-ups. Buzz Aldrin has also spoken of his own experience on board the Apollo 11 when they saw something flying alongside them. At first they thought it was the final stage of the detached rocket, until mission control confirmed it was 6000 miles away from them…

While some US presidents have released classified files on the subject of UFOs, with Jimmy Carter famously describing his own encounter, others still have been denied access to classified information on the subject altogether, Bill Clinton claiming to be among them. This has led many believers to suggest there’s a cover up afoot. Clinton has been consistently vocal on the existence of aliens and it’s worth noting his opinions on an ‘Independence Day’ situation too. You know, just in case…
This Black Smoke Ring Is Amazing, But It’s No Mystery
This Black Smoke Ring Is Amazing, But It’s No Mystery
byNBC NEWS
Is it a "portal to hell," or witchcraft, or just a puff from a smoke machine? A black smoke ring that was caught on video floating over northern Kazakhstan certainly looks eerie, but it's far less mysterious than the Internet buzz makes it out to be.
The Ruptly TV service posted the video over the weekend, and said the sight was recorded in the skies over the Kazakh village of Shortandy. The O-shaped ring floated in the air for 15 minutes, and then disappeared, Ruptly reported.
Creating smoke vortices generally requires a blast through a circular structure — perhaps from a factory smokestack, or a homemade trash-can smoke ring launcher, or a hippie-dippie apparatus specially designed for the job. Check out this 2008 video from the Burning Man festival in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, with "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" as accompaniment, and then ask yourself whether the Black Ring of Shortandy still looks so mysterious.

Finding Extraterrestrial Life May Rely on Identifying Traces Rather Than Aliens
Finding Extraterrestrial Life May Rely on Identifying Traces Rather Than Aliens

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.

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.
