Watch – UFOs Crossing the Moon
Watch – UFOs Crossing the Moon
Unidentified flying objects have been reported to have recorded on video crossing the lunar surface through a high-zoom telescope.
An array of objects passing the lunar surface is not new to YouTuber Crrow777 after spending years of observing a high-definition camera through a telescope on the moon.
These objects include a boomerang that is made up of a strange unevenly-shaped object, three interconnected discs, and regular discs.
Crrow777, who has been narrating his videos, claims he knows the UFOs are not birds, insects, or satellites flying closer to Earth and creating an optical illusion as to their size after years of filming the moon using a telescopic lens.
In a video, Crrow777 says that it is a compilation of UFOs transiting the moon. He explains that these were shot over the past years and only represent a small part of his captures. Crrow777 believes that the moon is a hologram and the International Space Station is a hoax.
Several conspiracy theorists believe the American government has developed a craft secretly that can go into space. It is also believed that aliens occupied the moon, the reason NASA has never returned. One of the most popular conspiracy theories is that the moon is a hollow extraterrestrial space station.
claimed to be an ex-government geologist and structural engineer who was involved in building underground military bases around the United States (possessing a level 3 security clearance, “Rhyolite 38″), and to be one of only three people to have survived a deadly battle in which 66 American and NATO “Delta Force” soldiers were killed. This battle allegedly occurred in 1979 between Grey aliens and U.S. military and NATO forces at an underground base at Dulce, NM (c.f.: “The Dulce Wars: Underground Alien Bases & the Battle for Planet Earth” By Branton, “Underground Alien Bases” by Commander X and “Reality of the Serpent Race & The Subterranean Origin of the UFOs” by both).
Footage Shows A UFO Flashing Over The Skies Of A Remote Town In Britain
Footage Shows A UFO Flashing Over The Skies Of A Remote Town In Britain
The UFO online community got abuzz after a video that shows mysterious three orange balls moving in the sky and repeatedly changing direction was uploaded online. What makes the scene more interesting is that a trail of sparkling white light follows the strange balls.
Jeremy Le Fevre noticed the bizarre happening in the sky near his home in Frome, Somerset on Saturday evening. He referred the three orange balls and the white light behind as one single UFO. Jeremy saw the unusual object moving erratically with green lights. He then recorded its unusual manoeuvres on video.
According to Jeremy, it was the first time he saw such thing, which went on for several minutes before it flew off into the distance towards Longleat.
Jeremy saw the UFO emitting green and red colours.
Some UFO enthusiasts regarded the nearby town of Warminster as Britain’s UFO capital. The most notable account is the encounter in the mid-1960s that is now known as the Warminster Thing.
In the skies above the town, unexplained noises were heard, and a strange shimmering light was observed.
SPRING ON MARS: SNOWY DUNES ON NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
SPRING ON MARS: SNOWY DUNES ON NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
Below is a photograph that was taken in the Northern hemisphere in the spring at 13.21 Mars time and it was captured by the High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera that is located on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter from NASA.
Over the winter ice and snow have covered the dunes on Mars, but the snow and ice on Mars are not like that of Earth as it is known as dry ice.
SUN REVEALS ICE AND SNOW ON SMALL RIDGES
Once the sun begins to shine when spring comes around, the ice, begins to crack on the smooth surface and dark sand is carried out by the gas that escapes, and this creates patterns that are stunning. On the surface between the dunes, the surface is rough, and frost gets trapped behind some of the small ridges that are sheltered.
The manager of the Science Mission Directorate in Washington is the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and they manage the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The HiRISE camera is from Ball Aerospace and Technology Corporation, and it is operated by the University of Arizona.
THE NASA MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter of NASA was launched on 12 August 2005, and the aim of the technology was for it to search for any evidence that there was water on the surface of the Red Planet for any long period of time. Missions to Mars that had occurred before the launch of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter revealed that water had flowed over the surface of Mars throughout history; however, it has remained unknown whether the water had been around for a period of time that was long enough to Mars to have been habitable.
The cameras of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter are able to survey spots very close up, and one of the cameras is said to be the biggest that has ever flown on a planetary mission. On other orbiters of Mars, cameras have only been able to identify objects around the size of a school bus. However, the new camera can see something that is about the size of an average dinner table.
Thanks to the high-resolution camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter these superb images of snowy dunes on Mars have been captured.
ANTARES, ASTRONOMERS CAPTURE THE BEST EVER IMAGE OF A STAR OTHER THAN THE SUN
ANTARES, ASTRONOMERS CAPTURE THE BEST EVER IMAGE OF A STAR OTHER THAN THE SUN
Astronomers have managed to capture some of the best ever and most detailed photographs of Antares surface and atmosphere and they have shared the photos online.
ANTARES IS CALLED THE RED SUPERGIANT THANKS TO ITS ROSY GLOW
Antares is the red supergiant and it is at the very heart of the Scorpius constellation. It is named the red supergiant due to the fact that it has a rosy hue which is discernible by the naked eye. The new photos have been taken in Chile with the Very Large Telescope at the European Southern Observatory and they have revealed a detailed look at the atmosphere and surface of the star that is well beyond the solar system.
Antares is located around 550 light years from Earth, and the mass of the star is about 15 times the mass of the sun. However, it is expanding out and is in in the last part of its life and will become a supernova and due to this, it is losing material. Astronomers have said that if Antares were sitting in the middle of our solar system, the outer layers would be able to reach Mars. Up until now the exact process at which the giant stars lose their mass from the upper atmosphere hasn’t really been known.
LATEST PHOTOS MAP THE SURFACE OF ANTARES THANKS TO THE VLTI
The latest photos from the astronomers hope to answer this question as they map the motions of the material surface in very intricate details thanks to the VLTI, the Very Large Telescope Interferometer. This is an instrument that is able to combine the light from as many as four telescopes so that it can create a virtual telescope which has a resolution that is the same of a single mirror that is about 200 meters wide.
Keiichi Ohnaka from the Universidad Catolica del Norte in Chile said how stars such as the Antare lose their mass so fast in the final part of their evolution is something that has been an issue for more than half a century. The author of the paper went on to say that the VLTI is the only place capable of measuring correctly the gas motions in the extended Antares atmosphere and this is something that is critical in clarifying the problem. It is said that the next challenge researchers and astronomers have is to identify just what drives the turbulent motions.
From the observations made researchers have found some unexpected turbulence in the outer atmosphere of the star and these have been big clumps of receding and up-welling gas. They are movements that cannot be fully explained by the convection currents, where the gas flow transfers any heat from the core and to the outer limits of the star, which points to a new and at the moment, unknown process.
PROJECT AURORA: LOCKHEED MARTIN JUST CONFIRMED THEY'RE BUILDING THE SR-72
PROJECT AURORA: LOCKHEED MARTIN JUST CONFIRMED THEY'RE BUILDING THE SR-72
Government contractor and multinational corporation Lockheed Martin has finally publicly confirmed that they are building the SR-72. The SR-72, based on newly available information, would be the first hypersonic plane. In order to build support for this new design, NASA has released video footage of its predecessor: the SR-71 "Blackbird".
The SR-71 "Blackbird" itself was first built back in the 1960s based on secret government designs from the 1950s. To this day, it is the fastest manned aircraft to have ever been built, as shown in the video. Remarkably, a faster plane was never built in the nearly half a century since the SR-71's construction.
The SR-71 was able to reach speeds up to Mach 3 (2,200 mph) at a maximum altitude of almost 26,000 meters (85,000 feet) The two-seater SR-71 Blackbird was designed as a reconnaissance craft, and it was used in this roll from 1964 to 1998. However, during this period, Lockheed built only 32 of these super-fast planes. They are now working on the SR-72 to upstage the SR-71 by making it even faster. This would allow the SR-72 to function as a strike and recon aircraft.
The project is being developed under Lockheed’s Advanced Development Programs (ADP) or Skunk Works. The company wants to develop a plane capable of hypersonic flight, which means it would have to be able to attain speeds of Mach 5 (3,836 mph) and higher. Lockheed has aimed to surpass this mark, claiming that they expect to SR-72 to reach a Mach 6 (4,600 mph) top speed.
The main question now is why the government believes it needs this plane, and how it will be used. Of course, there is a great deal of secrecy surrounding the project, but it is certain to be expensive. It could be related to tensions between the U.S. And Russia; however, the plane could also function as a spy plane elsewhere. Even over American soil. It would be extremely hard to detect with any civilian, or even military, technology due to its remarkable speed and altitude capabilities.
De mooiste foto's (en video's) van de zonsverduistering
De mooiste foto's (en video's) van de zonsverduistering
Tim Kraaijvanger
Miljoenen Amerikanen genoten gisteren van het moment dat de maan tussen de aarde en de zon schoof. Voor de tijd was al duidelijk dat dit de meest gefotografeerde zonsverduistering ooit zou worden. Vrijwel iedereen stak zijn smartphone of spiegelreflexcamera in de lucht. Dit zijn de mooiste kiekjes!
De zonsverduistering werd tijdens een vlucht vastgelegd. Prachtige beelden, want het wordt plotseling donker en vervolgens weer licht. De lichtkrans om de zon – de corona – is op het hoogtepunt duidelijk te zien.
Nog een foto van astronaut Paolo Nespoli, waarop ook het internationale ruimtestation te zien is.
De zon achter Jack Mountain, net boven Seattle bij de Canadese-Amerikaanse grens. Een klein deel van de zonneschijf is bedekt. Ook is er een zonnevlek zichtbaar.
De maan schuift bijna volledig voor de zonneschijf. De afstand van de aarde tot de zon is 400 keer groter dan de afstand van de aarde tot de maan, maar omdat de diameter van de maan in werkelijkheid zo’n 400 keer kleiner is dan de zon, lijken beide objecten ongeveer even groot vanaf het aardoppervlak.
Op het randje van totale verduistering. Langs de rand zijn enkele protuberansen zichtbaar, namelijk grillige materiebruggen in de atmosfeer van de zon. Ook is een glimp van de corona te zien.
Wow! De krans rondom de zon heeft een temperatuur van één miljoen graden Celsius. Dat is veel warmer dan het oppervlak van de zon, dat ongeveer 6.000 graden Celsius warm is.
Over ruwweg 600 miljoen jaar is de laatste zonsverduistering te zien. De afstand tussen de aarde en de maan wordt namelijk steeds groter, waardoor de maan op een bepaald moment niet in staat is om de volledige zonneschijf te bedekken.
In Nederland is de komende honderd jaar geen zonsverduistering te zien. Wil je getuige zijn van een volledige zonsverduistering? Zorg dan dat je op 12 augustus 2026 in Spanje bent. Het is dan de eerste keer sinds 1999 dat de kernschaduw van de maan het vasteland van Europa bereikt.
When we get home after an exhausting day at the office, most of the time we don’t feel like cooking a proper meal. Instead of cooking something healthy, most of us just fall down on the couch and order a pizza. Or maybe we opt for the quicker and easier option of ready-made meals that are usually unhealthy and lacking in nutrition.
But that may change soon. Your dream of getting home-cooked food at the end of a long working day could become a reality.
Credit goes to Moley Robotics, a company headquartered in London. Moley will soon be launching the world’s first fully automated and integrated intelligent cooking robot. With this robot chef, making dinner will become as easy as sitting back and watching a pair of robotic arms do all the work.
Moley claims that this cooking robot will have access to the recipes and knowledge of renowned chefs. Furthermore, this wonder robot will not only be cooking for you, but it will clean up the mess afterward.
This robotic chef’s work space will be much like a standard kitchen. It will have an oven, a fridge, a dishwasher and a host of small appliances, but will offer one incredible new feature: It will also have two remarkably dexterous robotic arms installed atop a cooking area.
The robot chef is programmed to cook a variety of recipes exactly the way they were demonstrated by a human chef. The best part is that the kitchen can be operated by a touch screen or a remotely via a smartphone.

NASA has detailed a plan to prevent the Yellowstone supervolcano from ever erupting. By drilling into the volcano and pumping water into and out of it at high speeds, they believe they could cool the volcano and use the emerging hot water to generate electricity.
FROM THREAT TO ALLY
When people think of Yellowstone, it’s usually in relation to the national park, a massive 8,983 square kilometer (3,468.4 square mile) area comprising mountains, rivers, and forests. Less commonly considered is the Yellowstone Caldera, a supervolcano whose eruption could be devastating for our planet.
Thankfully, such an explosion is highly unlikely, and now, NASA has come up with a way to not only ensure that the volcano remains inactive, but also use it to provide the surrounding area with electricity.
Following their release of a story on supervolcanoes, the BBC was contacted by a few NASA members who wanted to share details on a previously unreleased plan to deal with Yellowstone. Even NASA admits their incredibly ambitious plan is risky, but the potential benefits resulting from its success can’t be completely ignored.
First, they would drill into the volcano from the lower sides, outside the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park. Coming from this direction would prevent the intense heat from making its way to the top of the chamber, where it would cause further problems.
Once drilling is complete, water would be pumped into and back out of the supervolcano at high pressures, with the exiting water heated to a temperature of around 350 degrees Celsius (662 degrees Fahrenheit). The water going in would slowly cool the volcano, while the hot water coming out of it could be used to generate electricity.
“Yellowstone currently leaks around 6GW in heat,” Brian Wilcox, a researcher at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), explained to the BBC. “Through drilling in this way, it could be used to create a geothermal plant, which generates electric power at extremely competitive prices of around $0.10/kWh.”
UNSEEN SUCCESS
Aside from the dangers inherent in any plan to drill into a volcano, the NASA proposal is also largely theoretical — no one knows for sure that it would work, and the cost of finding out would be an estimated $3.46 billion. Wilcox doesn’t think this cost is insurmountable, however.
“You would have to give the geothermal companies incentives to drill somewhat deeper and use hotter water than they usually would, but you would pay back your initial investment and get electricity which can power the surrounding area for a period of potentially tens of thousands of years,” he noted. “And the long-term benefit is that you prevent a future supervolcano eruption which would devastate humanity.”
Even if the system can effectively cool Yellowstone at NASA’s estimated rate of 1 meter (3.2 feet) per year, it would take thousands of years before only cool rock was left and longer than that to actually confirm that the process had permanently eliminated the threat of an eruption.
Despite all of these variables, the plan is worth consideration, especially given that Yellowstone is just one of about 20 supervolcanoes on the planet. NASA hopes that their proposal will encourage more practical discussions and debates on what to do about these massive structures prior to an eruption, at which point the Earth could be thrust into a volcanic winter.
Built by Lockheed Martin in the 1960s and decommissioned in 1998 due to high operational costs, the SR-71 Blackbird remains the fastest aircraft to have ever been flown. Now, Lockheed Martin wants to build an even faster plane: the SR-72.
Built in the 1960s by Lockheed using designs that were kept secret in the 1950s, the SR-71 Blackbird is the fastest manned aircraft to have ever flown the skies. To get an idea of how fast, watch the below video of the plane taking off.
Capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 3 (2,200 mph) with a maximum altitude of almost 26,000 meters (85,000 feet), the two-seater SR-71 Blackbird was used as a reconnaissance plane from 1964 to 1998. Lockheed built only 32 of these super-fast planes, and now, they want to build an even faster one that will act as a strike and recon aircraft.
The SR-72, the leading project under Lockheed’s Advanced Development Programs (ADP) or Skunk Works, promises to be even faster than the Blackbird. The company wants to develop a plane capable of hypersonic flight — speeds of Mach 5 (3,836 mph) and higher — and the SR-72 is expected to reach a Mach 6 (4,600 mph) top speed.
The inspiration for this hypersonic plane may come from the past, but it is poised to take military aircraft well into the future.
During the late 1960s, a top secret Soviet program to sneak nuclear weapons around U.S. early warning radars was mistaken for a rash of UFO sightings by Moscow's citizens. The weapon, known as FOBS, created a mysterious pattern in the night sky that many mistook for signs of alien visitation.
In the Spring of 1967, people living in the western Soviet Union noticed something odd in the sky at dusk: a mysterious crescent-shaped sliver of light, about the size of the moon from most directions but larger from others. The crescent appeared six times in 1967, always at the same time of day, before it finally disappeared.
According to veteran space expert James Oberg at Air & Space Magazine, the Soviet press speculated they were UFOs, and UFO enthusiast groups sprang up across the country to record the sightings.
Suddenly, after the sixth incident, Soviet press coverage of the incidents abruptly stopped. Someone in Moscow with top secret clearance realized that the crescents in the sky at sundown were actual evidence of a top secret weapons test, one that violate existing treaties on the deployment of nuclear weapons into space.
The "UFO" sightings were actually test launches of the R-36 Orb, a secret nuclear space missile. Developed from the SS-9 Scarp intercontinental ballistic missile, the R-36 Orb was designed to rocket into low earth orbit and de-orbit over the United States. Launched in a southern direction, the weapon could pass over the South Pole and then come at the United States from the direction of Mexico, bypassing the network of early warning radars facing north. The trip would be longer but would catch the Americans by surprise, allowing the Soviets the chance to detonate a 2-3 megaton thermonuclear weapon wherever they might choose.
The R-36 was a so-called "first strike" weapon. The only logical reason to have such a weapon was to use it first in a nuclear war, as a surprise weapon meant to destroy American leadership and nuclear command and control systems. The problem was that the R-36 was not accurate. On average, half of R-36s launched in a war would land within three miles of their target. That's not a deal breaker with a five megaton warhead, but it does rule out destroying enemy missile silos. Still, the R-36 would retain use when it came to wiping out the White House, Pentagon, U.S. nuclear bombers sitting on the tarmac, and other vital U.S. installations in a surprise attack.

The Soviet military conducted six tests of the R-36, each at the exact time of day when the missiles were illuminated but the recording cameras were in shadow. The illuminated crescent was caused by the weapon's braking maneuver, in which the de-orbit engine fired up and spewed exhaust as the weapon turned 180 degrees. This created a clearly visible letter "C" in the early evening sky. This slowed the R-36 down so that it entered low earth orbit, and would be fired back up again later to begin the de-orbiting process.
Although the Soviets initially explained away the tests as launches of "scientific research satellites," American intelligence eventually figured out what they were up to and called the USSR out on it. Within eight months of the first test, according to Oberg, the U.S. claimed the R-36 was a first strike weapon that used an orbit/de-orbit scheme. This would run afoul of the Outer Space Treaty, which was nearing completion and which would ban the placement of nuclear weapons in orbit. It would also run counter to UN Resolution 1884, passed in 1963, which called on the US and USSR not to place nuclear weapons in space.
Ground-based radars such as this Pave Paws system in Colorado helped make the R-36' surprise attack mode obsolete.
The Soviet Union never came clean about the R-36. Eighteen of the weapons were based in silos near Tyuratam, and later banned by the SALT II arms control treaty. The weapons had long since been obsolete, foiled by the deployment of new, southward-facing American early warning radars and Soviet ballistic missile submarines that could launch an attack from that direction much more quickly. The UFOs, it turned out, were not so unidentified after all.
This is the moment alien hunters believe they spotted an extra-terrestrial aircraft flying above them.
The sighting in the Philippines shows an object obscured by clouds, but still vaguely visible from a moving vehicle and seemingly high above nearby trees.
In the 20-second clip, which was uploaded to YouTube channel SecureTeam 10, the tip of the structure can be seen poking above clouds, becoming clearer as the narrator increases the contrast of the footage.
He concedes the viewers that the UFO is 'hard to see' in the 'original footage' due to trees obscuring it as it appears to hover under a telephone line.
'There's trees passing by but you can still see it vaguely in the background,' he says, before sharpening the image to increase the object's visibility.
The UFO was spotted apparently flying behind clouds by alien hunters in the Philippines
Then, toward the end of the video, it seems to accelerate and shoot off into the distance.
The video follows five other claimed incidents in the islands since 2000, when 37-year-old Antonio Israel said he filmed small balls of light over his Silver St neighbourhood.
Though it appears obscured here, post-production contrast editing made it more visible

Then, in 2004, it is claimed more than 10 UFOs were sighted in Las Piñas at around 7pm on August 28.
In 2011 there were reports of red, large UFOs in Bulcan, which were followed by sightings in Cavite.
And in April 2015 motionless lights were reported to be hovering in a v-formation in Lubao-Pampanga.

Reports claim UFO whizzes past International Space Station
Reports claim UFO whizzes past International Space Station
(Credit: SecureTeam 10 YouTube channel)
A mysterious object appeared to have hovered past the International Space Station, according to new video footage from UFO researchers.
SecureTeam 10, who in recent days has posted videos about a supposed alien tank and a cigar shaped disc over Paris, claims that a disc-shaped object whizzed past the ISS "at a very high rate of speed."
NASA, who did not respond specifically to the latest video, has often said that the objects are "distortions in a lens" and do not signify the presence of extraterrestrial life.
Tyler Glockner, the voice heard on the video from SecureTeam 10, said that the object in the video moved "as if it knew the camera was watching."
Below is the video in its entirety:
UFO sightings have become more frequent in recent years. A book entitled "U.F.O. Sightings Desk Reference" said that U.S.-based sightings rose to 11,868 in 2015, up from 3,479 in 2001.
A synopsis of the book on Amazon states that it presents "data and analysis for 100,000+ sightings of unidentified flying objects reported by individuals during the first 15 years of the 21st century."
SecureTeam 10 has nearly 900,000 subscribers on its YouTube channel, despite openly running conspiracy-theory based videos.

Who owns Mars?
Who owns Mars?
Thomson Reuters Foundation
Can anyone claim the red planet or natural resources on asteroids?
Business leaders and legal experts say the question has become more than philosophical as a growing number of firms, often backed by capital and technology from Silicon Valley, have set their sights on the resources of outer space asteroids and Mars.
In order to avoid conflicts between competing companies and countries over outer space resources, more work needs to be done on Earth to determine who owns commodities taken from celestial bodies, analysts said.
“There is a huge debate on whether companies can simply travel to space and extract its resources,” said Barry Kellman, a law professor who studies space governance at DePaul University in Chicago.
“There is no way to answer the question until someone does it,” Kellman told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
ASTEROID WATER FOR SALE
U.S.-based Planetary Resources, a firm backed by Google founder Larry Page and Virgin Group’s Richard Branson, expects to be mining asteroids for water in the next 10 to 15 years.
The company will launch its first robotic probe mission to scout asteroids for resource deposits in 2020, said Planetary Resources’ Chief Executive Chris Lewicki.
“If you obtain a resource and bring it with you, it becomes your property,” Lewicki said, citing recently passed space laws in the U.S. and Luxembourg that offer a legal framework to ensure that private operators can be confident about their rights over resources they extract in space.
“You can sell, keep or deliver (space resources) peacefully,” Lewicki told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
The firm plans to extract oxygen and hydrogen - the components of water - from asteroids to sell.
Lewicki is not planning on bringing those water resources back to Earth; he wants market them in space, creating a “gas station” for other exploration missions.
Hydrogen and oxygen, kept at a docking station orbiting around Earth, will be used to fuel other space ships.
Moving those fuels from Earth into outer space is expensive, he said, and having energy accessible to ships will make voyaging easier.
One modest sized asteroid, about as big as a football field, “has enough oxygen and hydrogen to fuel every launch in the history of space (travel),” Lewicki said.
“We are seeing a boom - that might be a bad choice of words - in access to space.”
MARTIAN APPROPRIATION
Other analysts are not sure if companies can just fly up and start harvesting cosmic water, legally speaking.
The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 is the main international standard for what companies and countries are allowed to do when they aren’t on earth, said Jacob Haqq-Misra, director of the Blue Marble Space Institute of Science, a Seattle-based research group.
The treaty says that space is the “provenance of all mankind”. Countries cannot claim “national appropriation” or sovereignty over the Moon or other celestial bodies “by occupation or by other means”, the treaty says.
This clause could prove tricky for private firms who want to mine on asteroids or Mars, said Haqq-Misra, including Planetary Resources and SpaceX, the private rocketship company run by tech billionaire Elon Musk.
“If SpaceX, a U.S. corporation, was to claim asteroid profits as its own, there is some ambiguity as to whether that constitutes national appropriation,” Haqq-Misra told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
SpaceX declined to comment.
NEW LAWS While the 1967 treaty is considered the global standard for sharing space, individual countries have recently passed laws allowing for property rights in the great beyond.
Luxembourg this month brought into force laws allowing private firms to own resources extracted from outer space in a move hailed by the nascent space mining industry.
Planetary Resources, for example, maintains an office in the small European country better known for its finance industry than space exploration.
The U.S. in 2015 introduced similar legislation for private space resource ownership but it only applies to firms majority owned by Americans.
NASA, the U.S. government’s space agency, maintains a “neutral position with regard to mining of minerals on Mars”, a spokesman said.
“If companies request assistance or want partnerships related to mining on Mars, we help to the best of our ability,” NASA spokesman Guy Webster told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email without providing specifics on space resource ownership.
FROM SEA TO SPACE
Along with national legislation and the 1967 treaty, there are other earthly regulations which could provide guidance for managing extraterrestrial resources, legal experts said.
Under the United Nations’ Law of the Sea Convention countries have exclusive rights to exploit natural resources within around 200 miles (322 km) of their coast line, but ships and planes from other nations can freely pass through the waters.
This could serve as a template for space resource rights, where companies have exclusive economic rights in a given area around their landing point, but not ownership over an entire asteroid or planet, lawyers said.
“It’s advantageous to work out a system where people can acquire property rights enforceable through a legal process,” Andrew Brehm, an attorney with Scopelitis, Garvin, Light Hanson & Feary in Milwaukee.
“That being said, outer space is viewed in society as something similar to the ocean, where there is a collective interest,” Brehm told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
“A first come, first serve system does not necessarily work well when only certain countries or private entities can (currently) reach outer space.”
Even if countries can agree on a universal property rights regime for space, there are still plenty of earthly grievances for countries and companies to address, said Kellman, the law professor.
Specifically, analysts and legal experts do not know whether companies would have to pay taxes or royalties to anyone on earth for extracting space resources.
It is an issue space exploration firms have yet to deal with.
“For the moment, the company exists on earth, where all of the laws and regulations apply,” Planetary Resources’ Lewicki said.
Can anyone claim the red planet or natural resources on asteroids?
Business leaders and legal experts say the question has become more than philosophical as a growing number of firms, often backed by capital and technology from Silicon Valley, have set their sights on the resources of outer space asteroids and Mars.
In order to avoid conflicts between competing companies and countries over outer space resources, more work needs to be done on Earth to determine who owns commodities taken from celestial bodies, analysts said.
“There is a huge debate on whether companies can simply travel to space and extract its resources,” said Barry Kellman, a law professor who studies space governance at DePaul University in Chicago.
“There is no way to answer the question until someone does it,” Kellman told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
ASTEROID WATER FOR SALE
U.S.-based Planetary Resources, a firm backed by Google founder Larry Page and Virgin Group’s Richard Branson, expects to be mining asteroids for water in the next 10 to 15 years.
The company will launch its first robotic probe mission to scout asteroids for resource deposits in 2020, said Planetary Resources’ Chief Executive Chris Lewicki.
“If you obtain a resource and bring it with you, it becomes your property,” Lewicki said, citing recently passed space laws in the U.S. and Luxembourg that offer a legal framework to ensure that private operators can be confident about their rights over resources they extract in space.
“You can sell, keep or deliver (space resources) peacefully,” Lewicki told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
The firm plans to extract oxygen and hydrogen - the components of water - from asteroids to sell.
Lewicki is not planning on bringing those water resources back to Earth; he wants market them in space, creating a “gas station” for other exploration missions.
Hydrogen and oxygen, kept at a docking station orbiting around Earth, will be used to fuel other space ships.
Moving those fuels from Earth into outer space is expensive, he said, and having energy accessible to ships will make voyaging easier.
One modest sized asteroid, about as big as a football field, “has enough oxygen and hydrogen to fuel every launch in the history of space (travel),” Lewicki said.
“We are seeing a boom - that might be a bad choice of words - in access to space.”
MARTIAN APPROPRIATION
Other analysts are not sure if companies can just fly up and start harvesting cosmic water, legally speaking.
The Outer Space Treaty of 1967 is the main international standard for what companies and countries are allowed to do when they aren’t on earth, said Jacob Haqq-Misra, director of the Blue Marble Space Institute of Science, a Seattle-based research group.
The treaty says that space is the “provenance of all mankind”. Countries cannot claim “national appropriation” or sovereignty over the Moon or other celestial bodies “by occupation or by other means”, the treaty says.
This clause could prove tricky for private firms who want to mine on asteroids or Mars, said Haqq-Misra, including Planetary Resources and SpaceX, the private rocketship company run by tech billionaire Elon Musk.
“If SpaceX, a U.S. corporation, was to claim asteroid profits as its own, there is some ambiguity as to whether that constitutes national appropriation,” Haqq-Misra told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
SpaceX declined to comment.
NEW LAWS While the 1967 treaty is considered the global standard for sharing space, individual countries have recently passed laws allowing for property rights in the great beyond.
Luxembourg this month brought into force laws allowing private firms to own resources extracted from outer space in a move hailed by the nascent space mining industry.
Planetary Resources, for example, maintains an office in the small European country better known for its finance industry than space exploration.
The U.S. in 2015 introduced similar legislation for private space resource ownership but it only applies to firms majority owned by Americans.
NASA, the U.S. government’s space agency, maintains a “neutral position with regard to mining of minerals on Mars”, a spokesman said.
“If companies request assistance or want partnerships related to mining on Mars, we help to the best of our ability,” NASA spokesman Guy Webster told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email without providing specifics on space resource ownership.

Bargo UFO spotter sights mysterious black object on camera
Bargo UFO spotter sights mysterious black object on camera
Daniel McGookin, Macarthur Chronicle Campbelltown
Bargo resident who has captured multiple UFOs on video has stopped filming due to the sheer volume of sightings.
Darrin Cairns said the Macarthur region was a UFO hotspot and that he decided to stop filming two years ago when he became apprehensive over the many objects he saw.
He has captured UFOs on video in the skies above the Macarthur region on 10 occasions.
Footage of a ‘UFO’ arriving via a wormhole.
“I was seeing so many of them that it was starting to scare me a bit,” he said.
“I thought to myself, I just don’t want to know what is out there anymore.”
Mr Cairns spoke out and offered to share his footage after a Bradbury resident reported seeing a UFO at the weekend.
“When I was living in Bradbury, at around 2am I was looking out the window and there was a big black triangle,” he said.
“It was around 100m high, spinning around really slowly for about seven seconds before it disappeared towards a Wollongong direction.”
A UFO sighting over Townsville, Queensland, Australia.
The footage featured on this post is from 2013, when a small, black object sped across the Bargo sky.
“My son had pointed out the chemtrails left in the sky off planes, so I started filming the skies on my Sony Cyber Shot,” he said.
“I had been filming the sky one afternoon and just before I packed up the camera I captured a UFO as the last bit of footage.
“It was way too fast for our eyes. When I showed my family, we had no doubt it was a UFO.”

Starting in March 1967, when the Space Age was less than a decade old, skywatchers from Ukraine to the Caucasus Mountains were repeatedly treated to a spectacle. Six times over a six-month period, hundreds of thousands of Soviet citizens saw a strange crescent shape move across the sky in total silence.
Each time, the phenomenon was identical. The crescents moved west to east, convex edge forward, accompanied by smaller “sparks.” To some observers they were about the same angular size as the moon; others, farther north, reported them as much larger. They always appeared close to sunset, as afternoon transitioned into evening. After the sixth visitation, the crescents stopped appearing, just as mysteriously as they began, and never resumed.
The Soviet press speculated that they were UFOs. Amateur groups sprang up across the country to begin collecting and distributing eyewitness reports. The news quickly spread outside the U.S.S.R. and around the world, and within a year the sightings were mentioned in a U.S. Congressional hearing.
But there was a clue that connected the crescents to human space activities. On the same dates of the sightings, Moscow had launched Kosmos “scientific research satellites” (years later, each of the mysterious crescents was noted to have occurred about 95 minutes after that day’s launch—long enough for one orbit around Earth).
In November 1967, without any reference to the crescents, the U.S. Department of Defense made a startling accusation: The Kosmos launches were part of a new Soviet nuclear strike weapon, designed to put a warhead into low Earth orbit and then deorbit it over a target half a world away.
The timing was delicate. The United States and the U.S.S.R. were putting finishing touches on the Outer Space Treaty, which outlawed nuclear weapons in orbit, and the appearance of a system designed to do exactly that threatened to scuttle years of diplomacy.
The launches were timed so that the warheads were lit by the sun but observing cameras were shaded. Somebody in Moscow finally realized what these UFO reports really were and abruptly restricted media reporting, with no further official word about the “Kosmos” launches. In hindsight, if they had known what they were looking at, the UFO watchers’ reports would have revealed details of the propulsion that guided the dummy warheads to their targets at Kapustin Yar. Later test flights were launched at random times of day, so no evening apparitions were created.
The Soviets named the strike missile R-36Orb—a variant of an intercontinental ballistic missile known to the West as the SS-9 Scarp—and a handful were eventually installed in silos, but withdrawn in 1983 after the SALT II treaty definitively banned them.
Just why a descending nuclear warhead should produce a wide crescent-shaped wake was a mystery to the public for many years, though the CIA almost certainly knew the answer.
In September 2015, a SpaceX Falcon 9 launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida; after releasing the second stage, the first stage flipped over, fired its engine to slow down, and for the first time landed on a platform in the Atlantic Ocean. Infrared images of the nighttime descent showed a distinct crescent shape ahead of the vehicle as exhaust particles, released in space, entered the atmosphere and bunched up. The striking similarity to the 1967 Russian apparitions made clear what they were: the exhaust from retrofiring rockets.
Following the collapse of the U.S.S.R., details about the R-36Orb began spilling out. Now we know what really happened: Top-secret space weapons tests were mistaken for alien visitors.
Drone or UFO? Police yet to identify over 100 flying objects spotted at Delhi airport
Drone or UFO? Police yet to identify over 100 flying objects spotted at Delhi airport
Every month, nearly 6-7 cases of pilots getting distracted by different objects are reported from near the airport. In most of the cases, pilots tell the location in nautical miles because of which the police could not make a breakthrough in any of the over 100 cases reported in the past two years.

From balloons to flying parasol, to drones and laser lights, pilots landing at the country’s busiest airport in Delhi are having a tough time dealing with distractions while landing or taking off.
Every month, nearly 6-7 cases of pilots getting distracted by different objects are reported from near the airport.
In most of the cases, pilots tell the location in nautical miles because of which the police could not make a breakthrough in any of the over 100 cases reported in the past two years.
Police say usually, flight movement is not stopped when pilots report such sightings. But when the air traffic controller (ATC) feels, they order suspension of flights.
“The pilot gives details of height, altitude and nautical miles and based on that we pinpointed the area over where the plane was flying when laser lights distracted the pilot. In cases of balloon or drone-like objects, the radar does not show anything. Personnel posted at watchtowers have been asked to report if they notice any such object but investigation has hit a dead end. In almost every case, the pilot was five nautical miles away from Delhi, which means the laser light originated from outside the capital,” said a Delhi Police official.
On August 15, CISF personnel posted at a watchtower noticed a balloon. When the team reached, they found that it was 80-90 feet away from the ground.
The police have asked traders not to supply such flashy lights at wedding venues near the airport. They have also asked the Union home ministry to prepare guidelines with a provision of punishment for those selling and buying drones illegally.
Under section 144 CrPC, Delhi Police have presently prohibited the use of laser beams by any individual or group or organizers in areas around the airport.
“Any person, group of persons, organizers, owners, occupiers, employees contravening these orders shall be liable to be punished in accordance with provisions of section 188 of the IPC ,” the official said.
Scotland an alien nation as expert reveals over 1000 UFO sightings a year
Scotland an alien nation as expert reveals over 1000 UFO sightings a year
Malcolm Robinson insists the country is a hotspot for strange goings on in the skies and claims the Government is trying to cover it up.
BY ANDREW BARGH
Robinson is a self-styled expert on alien visits
A self-styled UFO expert has revealed there are about 1000 reported sightings in Scotland every year.
Malcolm Robinson last night insisted Scotland is a hotspot for strange goings on in the skies but claimed the Government are trying to cover it up.
The Scot, from Tullibody, Clackmannanshire, is the founder of Strange Phenomena Investigations and speaks at events on claims of alien visitors.
Robinson admitted 98 per cent of sightings can be explained. But he said the remaining genuine reports give cause for curiosity.
Robinson, who now lives in Hastings, said: “It’s extraordinary. Something is definitely going on in the skies above Scotland.
Robinson believes the Government are trying to cover up UFO sightings
“Sightings are on the rise and interest in the subject is increasing. Of the roughly 1000 reports we get from Scotland every year, 10 to 20 can be be described as accurate.
“There are natural explanations for 95 per cent of them, around three per cent are test aircraft and sometimes there is rare atmospheric phenomena.
“There are several hotspots in the country – Bonnybridge is one of the best in the world.
“It’s my job to unmask frauds and prove to sceptics that this is reality.” Robinson worked alongside former Bonnybridge councillor Billy Buchanan in the 90s when sightings began in the town.
More than 300 are still reported every year and the pair have written to every Prime Minister since John Major to ask for an inquiry – without response.
Robinson believes the Government are withholding information.
He said: “There are many sceptics and I started off as one of them. But I did research, looked at the overwhelming evidence and had my eyes opened.
“Sightings are on the rise and I am certain the British Government know what is going on.
“They have information they aren’t willing to share. The $1million question is, ‘Where are these objects coming from?’”
His book UFO Case Files of Scotland is being re-printed next month.
