5 Mind Blowing Underwater Cities
5 Mind Blowing Underwater Cities
No doubt we’ve all heard of the legend of Atlantis, the ancient, once great city that was lost when the ocean submerged it.
To this day the legendary city has yet to be found (or proven to have ever existed) yet over the years many other underwater cities have been found, each of them as eerie as they are mind blowing.
1. Port Royal, Jamaica
Once a notorious hub for pirate activity, prostitutes, booze, and raging all-night parties, Port Royal was once branded ‘the most wicked and sinful city in the world’.
That was so until June 1692 when a massive 7.5 earthquake shook the island of Jamaica, sucking Port Royal into the ocean due to it’s unstable foundations and killing over 2,000 of it’s inhabitants. Was this earthquake a fatal natural accident or was it retribution for all the sins committed within the cavity? For hundreds of years people believed the latter.
In the years since then the infamous city, once one of the largest European cities in the New World, has continued to sink and now it lies forty feet below the ocean. The sunken city is a hive for archeological exploration as amazingly many near-perfect artefacts are still being unveiled from the site.
2. The Pyramids of Yonaguni-Jima, Japan
To this day experts still argue over whether the Yonaguni Monument which lies underwater just off the coast of Japan is man made or simply a natural occurrence.
While there is evidence to support the natural theory, looking at the terraced stones and triangular shapes that which make up the pyramid it’s hard to believe such a monument could occur naturally. The pyramid rises a massive 250 feet from the sea floor and is a constant lure for scuba-divers for obvious reasons.
If the structure was manmade, experts suggest it was likely built during the last ice age at roughly 10,000 BCE.
3. Dwarka, Gulf of Cambay, India
The ancient city of Lord Krishna was once thought to be merely a myth but ruins discovered in 2000 seem to be breathing life into the old Indian tale.
The story goes that Lord Krishna had a magnificent city which was made up of 70,000 palaces made of gold, silver, and various other precious metals. The city was prosperous however upon Lord Krishna’s death Dwarka supposedly sank into the sea.
The ruins are situated 131 feet beneath the ocean surface in the bay of modern-day Dwarka, one of the seven oldest cities in India. Acoustic studies have shown the ruins to be amazingly geometric, stunning experts.
Many artefacts have been recovered from the site but perhaps none more important than one which was dated to 7500 BCE, supporting the theory that the ruins may well be the ancient Dwarka.
4. Lion City of Quiandao Lake, China
Hailed as the most spectacular underwater city in the world, China’s Lion City certainly is a marvel.
Built in Eastern Han Dynasty at roughly 25-200 CE and spanning about 62 football fields in area, today Lion City can be found 85-131 feet beneath the surface of Thousand Island Lake, an area that was intentionally flooded in the 1950s to create a dam.
The sculptures that decorate the city rival the beauty of even Alexandria so it’s little wonder that Lion City is now one of China’s most popular tourist destinations.
5. Cleopatra’s Palace, Alexandria, Egypt
Just off the shores of Alexandria lies what is believed to be the palace of Cleopatra, an ancient Egyptian queen. It is believed that the ruins were cast into the sea by an earthquake over 1,500 years ago and lay dormant until recent years.
Along with the royal quarters, archaeologists also believe they have found the temple of Isis alongside them. To date, more than 140 artifacts have been uncovered from the site and experts now believe they have located the tomb of Cleopatra and an ancient museum within the ruins.
Hopefully the ruins will be opened up to divers and tourists in the years to come, allowing us all to have a closer look at the marvel that is Cleopatra’s palace.

NASA's Cassini mission came to a dramatic end last week after two decades in space.
The Cassini orbiter illuminated gigantic storms on Saturn, explored the planet's rings, and revealed potential sources of life in Saturn's moons. The spacecraft deployed the European Space Agency's Huygens probe, which landed on the surface of Saturn's moon Titan in humankind's most distant touchdown to date. The probe beamed back images of Titan's craggy highlands, oily shorelines and steep ravines, lifting the veil on an alien — though in some ways strangely Earth-like — landscape beneath a dense atmosphere. [Cassini's Greatest Hits: Best Photos of Saturn and Its Moons]
Cassini and Huygens forever changed the way scientists understand Saturn and its rings and moons. But the real-life scientists named Cassini and Huygens had a much different view of the planet when they were pushing the boundaries of astronomy in the 17th century.
Turning Saturn's ears into a ring
In 1610, Galileo Galilei became the first person to ever set eyes on Saturn through a telescope. Until then, the planet was little more than a flickering light in the sky. But through his rudimentary instrument, with 30x magnification, Galileo was able to see that Saturn had some kind of appendages or "ears" that stuck out from either side of the planet. They did not move like the moons he had discovered around Jupiter.
Galileo would never quite figure out what these "ears" were.
Enter Christiaan Huygens. Born to a well-heeled family at The Hague in the Netherlands in 1629, Huygens became a leading scientist and mathematician of his era. He invented the pendulum clock. He was the first person to theorize that light travels in waves. And from early on in his career, Huygens devoted himself to designing and perfecting telescopes.
Huygens and his brother came up with a way to mechanically grind and polish telescope lenses for greater clarity. On the night of March 25, 1655, Huygens peered through his new 12-foot telescope and looked at Saturn. At the time, he couldn't resolve Saturn's ears, but he did spot a speck of light next to the planet. Over several nights he watched it travel around Saturn, concluding that it was a moon (which would later be known as Titan, Saturn's largest moon).
Two years later, Huygens was finally able to see that Saturn didn't have ears, but rather was surrounded by a ring. He published a short treatise called "De Saturni luna observatio nova," to formally announce the discovery of Titan and to cryptically call dibs on his explanation for Saturn's ears, which he still needed more time to research. He left a clue in the form of an anagram, which (according to the Smithsonian Libraries), if solved, would have read: "It is surrounded by a thin flat ring, nowhere touching, and inclined to the ecliptic."
More moons, more rings
Huygens believed Saturn had just one solid ring. But his theory was undercut a couple decades later, when Giovanni Domenico Cassini made his own observations of the planet.
Cassini was born in 1625 in northwest Italy. He made his way into astronomy via astrology, and early on in his career, he studied Jupiter and the motions of its moons. Heis sometimes credited for discovering Jupiter's Great Red Spot (a centuries-long storm on the gas giant). And his measurements of the discrepancies in the eclipses of Jupiter's moon Io even helped Danish astronomer Ole Römer calculate the speed of light.
In 1668, King Louis XIV of France invited Cassini to join the new French Academy of Sciences. Cassini helped establish the Paris Observatory and it was there that he set his sights on Saturn. Cassini discovered four more moons around Saturn: Iapetus and Rhea in 1671 and 1672, respectively, and Tethys and Dione in 1684. (Scientists now know that Saturn has 62 moons.) Cassini also noticed that Saturn's ring might not be a single, solid object, and in 1675, he described a gap in the rings, now known as the Cassini division. Cassini even speculated that the rings were not solid, but made up of swarms of tiny moonlets too small to see. He wasn't too far off. According to the European Space Agency, scientists today describe the ring particles as pebbles and dust.
Loving the Alien: How Steven Spielberg changed science-fiction
Loving the Alien: How Steven Spielberg changed science-fiction
Now back in cinemas in a 4K digital print on its 40th anniversary, ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind' captured a generation’s imagination with Spielberg’s loveable aliens
Steven Spielberg's 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' taught audiences to love aliens Sony
Steven Spielberg was six when his father made him watch the skies. Arnold Spielberg dragged his son out of bed without explanation in the middle of the night, and drove to a field where they joined New Jersey neighbours in staring at a meteor shower blazing through the dark. That 1951 experience was grandly reimagined in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. After an early career defined by the shuddering menace of Duel and Jaws, Spielberg’s 1977 hit focused on crazed suburban dreamers, cultists and the simply curious in the forgotten Midwest, people like “me, and my parents, and the friends that I knew”, he explained, as aliens make unambiguous, majestic contact.
“This particular project had a noble agenda,” its star Richard Dreyfuss reflected on its 20th anniversary in 1997. “That we are not only not alone, but that we have relatively little to fear…Close Encounters was truly the first cultural, iconic moment that said, ‘Calm down, we’re okay. They can be our friends.’” Now back in cinemas in a 4K digital print on its fortieth anniversary, Close Encounters taught audiences to love the alien. It’s a lesson which has been regularly attacked or forgotten. But this strand of wistful, visionary science-fiction cinema has also endured, from Contact to last year’s Arrival.
Richard Dreyfuss’s character Roy Nearydoesn’t fight the happy, heavenly creatures - he joins them in 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind'
Though the conservative, apolitical Spielberg of 1977 was no hippie, Stephen King noted how Close Encounters tallied with its times. The director had “come to his majority while students were putting daisies in the muzzles of M-1s” and the US military failed in Vietnam, King wrote. When Spielberg signed up for a science-fiction film in 1973, it was to be called Project Blue Book and, like Jaws’ venal mayor, be steeped in the justified paranoia of the then swirling Watergate conspiracy, as it explored government cover-ups of UFO sightings. The military remain untrustworthy in Close Encounters. Army helicopters, so familiar from Vietnam news footage, storm over the night-time horizon, and are evaded by Dreyfuss and Melinda Dillon’s suburban visionaries as they trail UFOs which hide in the clouds, in pursuit of the wondrous truth.

“We don’t identify with people in uniform,” Spielberg explained in 1997 (on the set, ironically, of Saving Private Ryan). First contact would not be made by “the face of the government”. Instead, he cast the great French director Francois Truffaut as the “kind and optimistic” scientist who takes charge of our first interstellar conversation.
“The film seems less concerned with science fiction than with recapturing the wonder of a child’s first experience of cinema,” Time Out’s critic David Pirie wrote at the time, calling Close Encounters “the first film in years to give its audience a tingle of shocked emotion that is not entirely based either on fear or suspense”. This sense of wonder became a Spielberg cliché, and the prevalent intention of successful Eighties fantasy directors. Pirie’s review shows how new it seemed in 1977. The shark-like shadow and cinema-shaking Dolby rumble of the Star Destroyer in Star Wars’ opening scene just months before was replaced by benign awe at Close Encounters’ mountain-sized Mothership. Spielberg had written the screenplay with his own childhood wonder at Disney’s Pinocchio running through his head, and the smaller UFOs seen early in his film seem made of light, as they dazzle and dance like Peter Pan’s Tinkerbell.

Spielberg had grown up enjoying a very different science-fiction tradition, formed during its only previous period of cinema popularity in the Fifties. Then, the Cold War threats of Russia and the Bomb were reflected in countless low-budget tales of radioactive monsters and alien invasion. Don Siegel’s Invasion of the Body-Snatchers (1955) was an enduringly sinister, politically potent nightmare of an American small-town losing its identity to alien pods. More typically, Earth vs. the Flying Saucers, The Thing and War of the Worlds saw a US Army fresh from World War Two success in pitched battle with the invaders.
Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) had introduced the cosmic awe which one of its special effects maestros, Douglas Trumbull, would develop in Close Encounters, and Nic Roeg’s The Man Who Fell To Earth (1976) explored Earth’s enervating effect on David Bowie’s harmless, listless alien. Enduring mainstream audience expectations, though, of both science-fiction and Spielberg, were still played up to in Close Encounters. The toys of Melinda Dillon’s three-year-old come eerily alive at night, before he runs happily into the fields to be snatched from her by a UFO. Even the Mothership’s five-note musical communication ominously hints at John Williams’ previous theme for Jaws. When we finally glimpse the aliens, though, they are mostly child-like. Dreyfuss’s character Roy Neary doesn’t fight these happy, heavenly creatures. He joins them.

Alien had vicious fun with a Fifties-style monster in 1979. But this new philosophy was confirmed with E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982). Intended as a small, personal film partly inspired by an imaginary friend who comforted Spielberg during his parents’ divorce, its first contact was flooded with wonder, and overwhelmingly emotional. Expanding on the final alien he’d built for Close Encounters, Carlo Rambaldi designed E.T. as a stumpy, clumsy, eventually miraculous companion for 10-year-old Elliott. Armed government agents who capture and scientifically torture him are again objects of fear and suspicion. E.T. is essentially a child himself, naïvely wise, sacred, and finally transfigured back into space.
E.T. dwarfed every previous film’s box-office. In its wake, John Carpenter’s bleak remake of 1951’s The Thing, in which the alien is a bloodily body-morphing, visceral infection, and Ridley Scott’s dystopian Blade Runner, both released two weeks later, bombed. Carpenter fared better with Jeff Bridges’ innocent, romantic visitor in Starman (1984), just as Ron Howard did with the elderly-rejuvenating aliens of Cocoon (1985). Simple interstellar shoot-‘em-ups inspired by Star Wars continued, and elsewhere at the Reagan-era box-office the not exactly pacifist likes of Rambo also triumphed. But Spielberg’s loveable aliens had conquered a generation’s imagination.
1997 saw a major continuation of 'Close Encounters’ ideas, when Spielberg protégé Robert Zemeckis directed 'Contact' starring Jodie Foster
(Getty)
Roland Emmerich’s Independence Day (1997) was the first major hit to trash this new orthodoxy, as it took simple joy in aliens smashing up the White House and everything else, before Will Smith blows the hell out of them. Tim Burton’s satirical Mars Attacks! (1996) had shown the way, as the Martians gleefully obliterate pacifists who’ve watched too much Spielberg.
And yet, 1997 also saw a major continuation of Close Encounters’ ideas, when Spielberg protégé Robert Zemeckis directed Contact from a Carl Sagan script. Jodie Foster is the maverick scientist who picks up alien communications, and their apparent blueprint for a ship to visit them. “Is it the default position of eggheads that all aliens are harmless?” James Woods’ NSA man sneers, as the military itch to act. This sober film finally lets Foster spend mere seconds in the aliens’ galaxy. She returns as a prophet-messenger preaching of the “awe, and the humility, and the hope” she experienced as time and physics bent around her, preparing humanity for further contact.
(Lava Bear Films)
Spielberg meanwhile answered Independence Day in 2005 by regressing to violent Fifties childhood pleasures, remaking George Pal’s War of the Worlds (1953) for a post-9/11 age. “Is it the terrorists?” Dakota Fanning asks Dad Tom Cruise as great white clouds billow down New York streets as they did when the Twin Towers fell, New Yorkers again become refugees fleeing Manhattan, and Martian tripods loom out of the mist. Where E.T. inverted the famous moment in Pal’s film when a malevolent alien hand reaches towards a human, Spielberg revels in ratcheting up that exact moment’s threat. “This isn’t one of my movies where suburbia is invaded by benign extra-terrestrials,” he explained, sounding almost relieved. He was so shaken by 9/11 that he even tampered with E.T., digitally removing its hostile government agents’ guns.
This decade has seen both traditions develop, and new points in between. Neill Blomkamp’s District 9 (2009) used his South African experience to imagine aliens “not destroying New York…they wouldn’t necessarily have the answers for human beings”, but instead proving weaker, and being hemmed into ghettos, where their Nigerian neighbours sell them cat-food at caviar prices. This is the first contact our colonists gave Native Americans and Africans.
Daniel Espinosa’s Life (2017) updates Alien to imagine dormant microscopic life on Mars which grows at a frightening rate, ferally chewing through a space-station’s scientists. Ryan Reynolds’ character compares the creature to Anthrax, though its mix of predatoriness and self-preservation is left ambiguous. “What’s frightening about discovering extra-terrestrial life is that we don’t know if its intentions will be friendly or hostile,” co-writer Rhett Rees accurately noted, “and one or the other species, either it or we, will be exploiting or exploited.”
Dennis Villeneuve’s Arrival (2016), though, is a successor to Contact, and so Close Encounters. It also looks back to the most famously pacifist science-fiction hit of the Fifties, The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951), in which the Christ-like Klaatu is shot by nervous soldiers when his flying saucer lands in Washington DC, and demands Earth mend its warlike ways or face destruction. Villeneuve’s towering, truly alien Heptapods similarly wish humanity to evolve. Military trigger-fingers again itch, but Villeneuve leaves the gunfire off-screen. Instead, Amy Adams’ linguist keeps talking. The non-linear time inhabited by the aliens lets her glimpse her whole life, and transform how she lives it. Humanity learns “humility” through this contact, Villeneuve thinks. As with Christopher Nolan’s alien-free, time-warping Interstellar and Contact, space offers near-religious hope of dealing with death. The promise Roy Neary believed as he stepped into the Mothership forty years ago still holds.
‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind: The Special Edition’ is out in cinemas now, and on Blu-ray on 9 October

It looks like a space alien, or maybe a very deformed clam. But really, it's a re-creation of a 500-million-year-old life-form.
New images show a sculpture of Agnostus pisiformis, a now-extinct arthropod that used to live in what is today Scandinavia. These creatures, just four-tenths of an inch (1 centimeter) long when they were alive, are nevertheless known in exact anatomical detail because they've been preserved so perfectly in shale and limestones.
"The incredible degree of preservational detail means that we can grasp the entire anatomy of the animal, which, in turn, reveals a lot about its ecology and mode of life," Mats E. Eriksson, a geology professor at Lund University who commissioned the sculpted re-creation as part of a new paper in the journal Earth-Science Reviews, said in a statement.
According to that paper, A. pisiformis started life as a larva and developed into adulthood by repeatedly shedding and regrowing its hard exoskeleton. Its body was protected by two shields that looked a bit like clam shells when the animal curled up. Little is known about the creature's ocean-going lifestyle, but it probably plucked bits of organic matter out of the water for food. [Photos: Strange, Eyeless Creatures from the Cambrian Period]
The odd little critter is also useful to modern scientists as what's called an index fossil. Index fossils are fossils that appear in only a particular time period, so they're used to date layers of rock: If the fossils appear in a rock layer, there's no question about when that layer formed.
Artists at 10 Tons studio in Denmark created the new lifelike sculptures of A. pisiformis. The process was painstaking and involved multiple steps with hand-modeled clay, wax molds and silicon casts. The final sculptures were made with translucent silicon, and each is about the size of a dinner plate — much larger than the real creatures, which makes it easier to see their anatomy. The artists made a partially unrolled sculpture, mimicking the arthropod's likely positioning during swimming, as well as a rolled-up version to show how its exoskeletal shields would have protected it. They also made a model of the creature as it appears under a scanning electron microscope.
The researchers and artists hope their creations will go on display in a traveling exhibit about the bizarre animals of the Cambrian seas. In their paper, they called the period "one of the most exciting times in Earth history." The Cambrian period was the time of the Cambrian explosion, a rapid diversification of life that gave rise to a host of oddball creatures.
Met een geplande kamikazeduik in de atmosfeer van Saturnus heeft de Amerikaanse sonde Cassini opgehouden te bestaan. Dat was rechtstreeks te volgen op NASA TV.
De NASA wilde absoluut vermijden dat de in 1997 gelanceerde verkenner aan het einde van zijn missie te pletter zou storten op één van de manen van Saturnus, en zo toekomstig wetenschappelijk onderzoek kon bezoedelen. Het ruimtetuig dook dus tijdens zijn 294ste baan rond de planeet met 113.000 km per uur de atmosfeer van de gasgigant in.
Meteoor
De dichtheid van de atmosfeer bracht de 2,5 ton wegende sonde aan het tollen. Naar verwachting viel de sonde uit elkaar, wellicht zoals een meteoor. Daarmee is de 3,2 miljard dollar kostende missie voorbij. Het radiosignaal deed er 83 minuten over om ons te bereiken.
De geslaagde kamikazeduik was ook een orgelpunt omdat de sonde er in de nadagen van haar missie in slaagde 22 keer tussen de planeet en haar ringen te duiken.
In het vluchtleidingscentrum, het Jet Propulsion Laboratory van de NASA in Pasadena, begonnen mensen te applaudisseren en elkaar te knuffelen. Sommigen onder hen hadden hun hele loopbaan aan de missie gewijd.
Tot het laatste moment hebben tien instrumenten op de sonde nog normaal gefunctioneerd, in het bijzonder een spectrometer om de samenstelling van de atmosfeer te analyseren. Bij wijze van primeur voor een Saturnusmissie zijn de data nog in realtime doorgestuurd.
De Cassini heeft tijdens de eigenlijke missie van dertien jaar de kennis omtrent Saturnus, zijn ringen en zijn manen een revolutionaire wending gegeven. Ook Belgische onderzoekers hebben van de Amerikaanse verkenner geprofiteerd.
De sonde was samen gelanceerd met de Europese Huygens. Die is op 14 januari 2005 zacht geland op de Saturnusmaan Titan, waarbij het Europese Ruimtevaartbureau ESA voor het eerst een ruimtetuig op een ander hemellichaam had neergezet. Huygens is zodoende het enige fysieke overblijfsel van de Cassini-Huygensmissie waaraan ook het Italiaanse ruimtevaartbureau ASI deelnam.

TRUTH IS DOWN THERE US Navy is running top secret programme to detect alien spacecraft under the ocean, UFO expert claims
TRUTH IS DOWN THERE - US Navy is running top secret programme to detect alien spacecraft under the ocean, UFO expert claims
Leading astronomer and ufologist Marc D’Antonio says that he witnessed a USO – unidentified submerged object – while aboard a navy submarine in the North Atlantic
By Emma Parry, Digital US Correspondent in Hulett, Wyoming
THE US Navy is running a top secret programme to detect unidentified submerged object – or USOs – beneath the sea, according to a UFO expert.
Marc D’Antonio, an astronomer and chief video analyst for UFO organisation MUFON, said he witnessed what he believes must have been an alien craft travelling at impossible speeds while he was on board a US Navy submarine in the North Atlantic ocean.
JOHN CHAPPLE
Marc D'Antonio says he witnessed Unidentified Submerged Object (USO) in the North Atlantic ocean
Marc then heard a naval officer ordering the sonar operator to log the unidentified object - which was travelling at "several hundred knots" - as part of the “Fast Mover Programme”.
Currently most submarine and torpedoes can only go up to 40 knots – due to the resistance of the water.
The Russians reportedly have a torpedo that can go in excess of 200 knots - but a speed of "several hundred knots" would appear to be impossible for human-built crafts.
Marc, who runs a special effects company called FX Models that undertakes Naval contracts, said: “As a thankyou for doing some work for them Navy asked me if I wanted to go for a ride in a submarine so I said yes.
“Once we got under I was sitting in the sonar station and the sonar operator was sitting right next to me.
"Submarines are loud – people think they are very quiet and it’s true they are on the outside because the sound doesn’t get out. But inside you hear fans, noise - it’s a constant din on a sub.
Marc was on board a US Navy submarine when he saw the USO
“I was sitting there zoning out a little because I was sea sick and all of a sudden the sonar kid shouts 'fast mover, fast mover' and I’m jolted awake – thinking ‘What’s happening? Is it a torpedo?’
“The executive officer comes out and the operator shows him the path of the object and the officer says 'How fast is that going?'
“And the kid said 'several hundred knots'. I start to lean forward to listen in – and the officer said ‘Can you confirm it?’
“So he goes to another sonar machine and confirmed it wasn’t a machine anomaly - it was real. I thought ‘Wow that is incredible’.
“When the sonar guy said ‘What do I do with this?’ the officer said ‘log it and dog it’ - in other words log it and bury it.”
Four years later Marc said he was doing some more contract work for the Navy when he spoke to a senior naval figure about what he saw.
“I asked him ‘Can you tell me about the Fast Mover Programme?'" Marc explained.
“He looked at me and said 'Sorry Marc I can’t talk about that programme'.
“So he basically confirmed to me that the programme exists - he said everything without seeing anything.
“What that told me was that USOs are common – we even have a programme in place to classify and log and determine the speed of them and it goes into a vault.”
Marc made the claims at the Devil’s Tower UFO Rendezvous in Hulett, Wyoming – where UFO enthusiasts from around America met at the site of Close Encounters Of The Third Kind rock to discuss alien-related findings.
He also revealed he is currently working on a project with Close Encounters visual effects supervisor Douglas Trumbell, which he hopes will scientifically prove the existence of alien life.
JOHN CHAPPLE
Marc is currently developing a project to scientifically prove the existence of alien life
The pair have been designing UFO detecting ground units which they hope to eventually place in countries all over the world.
Marc, who also runs the SkyTour LiveStream YouTube channel where he takes viewers on live tours of the night sky, is currently testing the units in his observatory.
He said: "The UFOTOG II system will bring ufology into the 21st century by marrying real science with standard observation.
"The system will look for phenomena in the sky and if it finds something that isn't a satellite, a plane, or some known object that we can access in a database, it will alert us by sending a message via GPS satellite to our cell phones.
"We'll make all the data we collect open and available to everyone.
"We are open minded and believe that visitation by an advanced alien race is not a scientific improbability."
Marine heeft topgeheim programma voor onbekende objecten in zee. UFO-expert vertelt over zijn opmerkelijke ervaring
Marine heeft topgeheim programma voor onbekende objecten in zee. UFO-expert vertelt over zijn opmerkelijke ervaring
De Amerikaanse marine komt in de oceaan vaak ongeïdentificeerde objecten tegen, zo stelt een UFO-expert. Dat meldt The Sun.
Astronoom Marc D’Antonio zei dat hij in de Atlantische Oceaan aan boord van een Amerikaanse onderzeeër een buitenaards vaartuig heeft gezien.
D’Antonio zei dat een officier opdracht kreeg om het ongeïdentificeerde object, dat zich voortbewoog met een snelheid van ‘honderden knopen’, moest registreren onder het ‘Fast Mover Programme’.
Onmogelijk
De meeste moderne onderzeeërs behalen een snelheid van zo’n 40 knopen. De Russen zouden beschikken over een torpedo die meer dan 200 knopen haalt, maar ‘honderden knopen’ lijkt onmogelijk te zijn voor vaartuigen die door mensenhanden zijn gemaakt.
D’Antonio is directeur van het bedrijf FX Models, dat onder andere wordt ingehuurd door de Amerikaanse marine.
Als bedankje mocht hij een keer aan boord komen van een onderzeeër.
Fast mover
De officier die de sonarapparatuur bediende spotte volgens hem plotseling een onbekend object. ‘Fast mover, fast mover’ riep hij, aldus D’Antonio.
De marineofficier kreeg vervolgens de opdracht het object te registreren en er verder geen aandacht aan te besteden.
D’Antonio vertelde een marinefunctionaris die hij kende wat hij had gezien. Hij vroeg hem of hij iets kon vertellen over het Fast Mover Programme.
Veelvuldig
“Hij keek me aan en zei ‘sorry Marc, ik kan niets zeggen over dat programma’,” zei hij. “Hij bevestigde dus eigenlijk dat het programma bestaat.”
“Hij vertelde me dat deze objecten veelvuldig worden gezien,” vervolgde hij. “Ze worden geregisteerd, de snelheid wordt vastgesteld en vervolgens gaat die informatie in een kluis.”
De astronoom deed zijn uitspraken tijdens de Devils Tower UFO Rendezvous, een bijeenkomst in de Amerikaanse staat Wyoming.
De wereld zoals we die kennen staat op het punt te eindigen. Dat stelt althans deze onheilspellende profetie
De wereld zoals we die kennen staat op het punt te eindigen. Dat stelt althans deze onheilspellende profetie
Vanaf aanstaande zaterdag zal de wereld niet meer hetzelfde zijn. Dat heeft numeroloog David Meade voorspeld tegenover de Washington Post.
Hij vertelde aan de krant dat op 23 september het einde der tijden aanbreekt. De numeroloog baseert zich op een aantal verzen en getallencodes in de Bijbel.
Centraal staat het getal 33. Dat is de leeftijd waarop Jezus stierf. Bovendien wordt de naam Elohim, Hebreeuws voor God, 33 keer vermeld.
Eerste gevolgen
Ook het feit dat het 33 jaar geleden is dat er een zonsverduistering zichtbaar was in de VS, is volgens hem een voorteken.
Meade legde uit dat Planeet X, ook wel Nibiru genoemd, op ramkoers met de aarde ligt. De planeet zou zaterdag zichtbaar worden en in oktober zouden de eerste gevolgen merkbaar zijn.
“De apocalyps uit de Bijbel wordt werkelijkheid,” citeerde de krant hem.
Vrouw
Daarin staat geschreven dat het einde der tijden zal komen als er een vrouw verschijnt aan de hemel, gekleed met de zon, met de maan onder haar voeten en een kroon van 12 sterren op haar hoofd.
Zaterdag heeft het sterrenbeeld Maagd (de vrouw) de zon achter en de maan onder zich.
Negen sterren van het sterrenbeeld Leeuw en de planeten Mars, Venus en Mercurius vormen volgens hem de 12 sterren.
Symbolisch
Deze theorie over de eindtijd werd enkele jaren geleden door de NASA afgedaan als een verzinsel. NASA-wetenschapper David Morrison zei toen dat de planeet al lang zichtbaar had moeten zijn als die nu op de aarde zou afstevenen.
Ook binnen de christelijke gemeenschap krijgt Meade de wind van voren. “Getallen in de Bijbel zijn symbolisch bedoeld, maar niet om voorspellingen te doen,” aldus predikant Ed Stetzer.
An international team of scientists has launched a campaign to build a telescope capable of peering 120 trillion miles into space, in hopes to find signs of life beyond our solar system.
The ExoLife Finder (ELF) will scour the cosmos for the possible chemical fingerprints of life on distant planets, and could even image faraway oceans and continents.
Once the radical telescope is completed, it will set its sights on the first target – the roughly Earth-sized exoplanet Proxima b thought to be orbiting within the habitable zone of our closest stellar neighbour, just 4.2 light years away.

THE EXOLIFE FINDER
The ELF telescope will consist of 16 5-meter (16.4 foot) mirror made from thin 'printed-mirror' technology.
It's radical design will allow scientists to reduce the cost and increase the targeted sensitivity by a factor of 10.
It will use a structural principal called tensegrity, which relies on tension and compression to reduce the mass and weight, in a similar technique to that which allows bicycle wheels or bridges to support a huge amount of weight.
Its mirrors will each be equipped a secondary, 'off-axis' mirror, for optics.
These will reduce the amount of scattered light that might interfere with the photons from the exoplanets.
And, the mirrors will be thinner than others, thanks to fire-polished window glass shaped in a specialized kiln, combined with an electronic 'muscle,' made from electroactive polymers.
The ELF telescope will consist of sixteen 5-meter (16.4 foot) mirror made from thin 'printed-mirror' technology, according to the new Kickstarter campaign from the Planets Foundation.
All in all, it will be 25 meters wide (82 feet) when finished, at the proposed location in Chile's Atacama Desert.
According to the researchers behind the project, ELF will be able to image exoplanets within 25 light years of Earth, including the promising worlds of the nearby star system Alpha Centauri.
The system holds two stars, Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B, and a small, faint red dwarf dubbed Alpha Centauri C, or Proxima Centauri.
And, circling this red dwarf, scientists recently spotted what could be a rocky planet in the habitable zone.
With the ELF telescope, the researchers plan to investigate this nearby world and others for the energy signatures of life in the atmosphere such as including water, oxygen, methane, and ozone.
Or, they say it could even detect colonies of photosynthetic organisms or thermal waste at the surface from advanced alien civilizations.

'We aim to find life on nearby planets outside the solar system, also known as exoplanets,' says Dr Svetlana Berdyugina, Director, Kipenheuer Institute for Solar Physics and Planets Foundation co-founder.
'We have designed a revolutionary telescope with a number of metamaterials, making our mirrors incredibly light and also reducing the cost of our telescopes by a factor of 10.
'Our powerful new telescope ExoLife Finder, or ELF, will be able to see planets up to 120 trillion miles away, and will image oceans, continents, and life on exoplanets.'
Once the radical telescope is completed, it will set its sights on the first target – the roughly Earth-sized exoplanet Proxima b thought to be orbiting within the habitable zone of our closest stellar neighbour, just 4.2 light years away. An artist's impression is pictured
WHAT MAKES PROXIMA B UNIQUE
Distance: This is the closest Earth-like planet we could ever find.
Orbiting our nearest star, the planet is only four light years away.
Missions to send spacecraft to the planet to examine for signs of life are already in planning, and could happen within decades.
Composition: The planet is rocky and a similar size to Earth.
Temperature: It lies in the 'habitable zone' of its star, which means there could be liquid water on its surface - a key ingredient for alien life.
The temperature on the surface of the planet could be between -90° and 30° Celsius (-130 and 86 Fahrenheit).
Atmosphere: If Proxima b has an atmosphere, the simple ingredients - water, carbon dioxide, and rock - that are needed for the formation of biochemical cycles that we call life, could all be present and interacting on the planet's surface.
'Proxima B is our neighbour': New Earth-like planet discovered
The team has so far raised over $16,000 toward their goal of $35,000, which they hope to meet by October.
This will allow the researchers to move forward and built a fully working prototype of the advanced polymer actuator system, upon which the revolutionary 2-centimeter-thick mirrors will depend.
They've also revealed a slew of science gifts for backers of the project, including a tardigrade 'cosmic light,' and a clock modelled after the Voyager I space probe.

More lights dancing around sky in UFO video, this time in Great Britain
More lights dancing around sky in UFO video, this time in Great Britain
A new UFO video submitted to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) shows bright objects flying around the night sky. In a similar videorecently taken in Arizona, it was speculated the objects were drones. However, this witness does not believe drones to be responsible for this sighting.

According to the report, the video was taken on September 18, 2017. The report was submitted the same day. The witness was walking the dogs when the lights were spotted. At first the witness thought the lights may be drones or a helicopter. However, the witness felt differently after watching the objects “manoeuvre effortlessly through the sky.”

While walking dogs at night outside back of house I noticed two strange lights flying around in the night sky. At first I thought helicopters or drones but the more I watched I don’t think this is the case. They didn’t look too far away, maybe a mile or so and seemed to manoeuvre effortlessly through the sky. After watching for a few minutes I went for my phone and recorded them. After recording I went inside to put dogs in and when came back out they were gone.

While the objects do seem odd, and must have been quite a sight, they could still be drones. As mentioned in relation to another recent sighting, drone technology continues to improve, and flying them at high speed through twists and turns has become a burgeoning sport. Check out the video of a drone racing championship in the UK below.

UFO appears over Mexico 7.1 Earthquake during Live TV News
A powerful 7.1 earthquake struck the state of Puebla, about 80 miles southeast of Mexico City this morning. Mexico's National Civil Defense agency put the death toll at 217, so far. In populated parts of Mexico City dozens of building collapsed or were heavy damaged.
During a live TV broadcast suddenly a UFO coming out of the clouds, then the object stops and moves again. While it could be a drone that takes a look at the aftermath of the earthquake the object does not look like a drone.
It is not the first time UFO’s have been seen before, during or after an earthquake occurred.
The day a UFO in Welford sparked international alien invasion scare
The day a UFO in Welford sparked international alien invasion scare
Authorities descended on village amid flying saucer panic
Reporter:
John Garvey
FIFTY years ago this month, something appeared in a Welford field that caused an international sensation.
A metallic, saucer-shaped craft was emitting a low beeping sound when it was discovered by locals who, in turn, alerted authorities.
Soon the public was being kept at bay as scientists, police and Ministry of Defence officials descended on the village.
The mystery deepened as reports began to come in of five more identical objects being found.
All were sited in a straight line from east to west – Queenborough on the Isle of Sheppey; Bromley in south London; Ascot in Berkshire; the village of Welford; Chippenham in Wiltshire and Clevedon in Somerset.
The Welford saucer was found on September 4, 1967, in a cornfield 25 yards from the road near Tullock Farm, by auxiliary postwoman Eva Rood on her morning deliveries.
She told husband Fred, who rang Hungerford police.
Police officer James Hennessey was sent out to investigate and said later: “I went out into the middle of the field and, lo and behold, there was this thing... silver-coloured, metallic-looking, with a dome on top and making a bleeping sound.”
Soon, USAF personnel from RAF Welford arrived.
Mr Hennessy said: “They were a bit panicky. I called CID for help.”
Officers from Hungerford, Sulhamstead, Great Shefford and Lambourn were all drafted in.
Then, to everyone’s alarm, a mysterious green goo began oozing from the object, just as scientists from AWE Aldermaston arrived to join the fray.
The story was first covered by NWN reporter Peggy Cruse, who had been given the most bizarre tip-off of her career during routine police calls.
Soon afterwards, news flashed round the world of the apparent alien invasion.
It was only later that the truth emerged – it was all an elaborate hoax dreamed up and executed by science fiction-obsessed apprentices at the Royal Aircraft Establishment in Farnborough, Hampshire.
The saucers were moulded from fibreglass and painted with artist’s graphite to give them an eerie sheen.
The ‘alien goo’ was coloured, fermenting bread dough and the beeping – which only sounded when the object was touched – was operated by an ingenious motion-detecting device.
The nation relaxed.
But by the time the pranksters had come forward, the ‘Welford saucer’ and its cousins had earned their place in UFO history.
TRUTH IS DOWN THERE US Navy is running top secret programme to detect alien spacecraft under the ocean, UFO expert claims
TRUTH IS DOWN THERE US Navy is running top secret programme to detect alien spacecraft under the ocean, UFO expert claims
Leading astronomer and ufologist Marc D’Antonio says that he witnessed a USO – unidentified submerged object – while aboard a navy submarine in the North Atlantic
By Emma Parry, Digital US Correspondent in Hulett, Wyoming
THE US Navy is running a top secret programme to detect unidentified submerged object – or USOs – beneath the sea, according to a UFO expert.
Marc D’Antonio, an astronomer and chief video analyst for UFO organisation MUFON, said he witnessed what he believes must have been an alien craft travelling at impossible speeds while he was on board a US Navy submarine in the North Atlantic ocean.

Marc D'Antonio says he witnessed Unidentified Submerged Object (USO) in the North Atlantic ocean
Marc then heard a naval officer ordering the sonar operator to log the unidentified object - which was travelling at "several hundred knots" - as part of the “Fast Mover Programme”.
Currently most submarine and torpedoes can only go up to 40 knots – due to the resistance of the water.
The Russians reportedly have a torpedo that can go in excess of 200 knots - but a speed of "several hundred knots" would appear to be impossible for human-built crafts.
Marc, who runs a special effects company called FX Models that undertakes Naval contracts, said: “As a thankyou for doing some work for them Navy asked me if I wanted to go for a ride in a submarine so I said yes.
“Once we got under I was sitting in the sonar station and the sonar operator was sitting right next to me.
"Submarines are loud – people think they are very quiet and it’s true they are on the outside because the sound doesn’t get out. But inside you hear fans, noise - it’s a constant din on a sub.
Marc was on board a US Navy submarine when he saw the USO
“I was sitting there zoning out a little because I was sea sick and all of a sudden the sonar kid shouts 'fast mover, fast mover' and I’m jolted awake – thinking ‘What’s happening? Is it a torpedo?’
“The executive officer comes out and the operator shows him the path of the object and the officer says 'How fast is that going?'
“And the kid said 'several hundred knots'. I start to lean forward to listen in – and the officer said ‘Can you confirm it?’
“So he goes to another sonar machine and confirmed it wasn’t a machine anomaly - it was real. I thought ‘Wow that is incredible’.
“When the sonar guy said ‘What do I do with this?’ the officer said ‘log it and dog it’ - in other words log it and bury it.”
Four years later Marc said he was doing some more contract work for the Navy when he spoke to a senior naval figure about what he saw.
“I asked him ‘Can you tell me about the Fast Mover Programme?'" Marc explained.
“He looked at me and said 'Sorry Marc I can’t talk about that programme'.
“So he basically confirmed to me that the programme exists - he said everything without seeing anything.
“What that told me was that USOs are common – we even have a programme in place to classify and log and determine the speed of them and it goes into a vault.”
Marc made the claims at the Devil’s Tower UFO Rendezvous in Hulett, Wyoming – where UFO enthusiasts from around America met at the site of Close Encounters Of The Third Kind rock to discuss alien-related findings.
He also revealed he is currently working on a project with Close Encounters visual effects supervisor Douglas Trumbell, which he hopes will scientifically prove the existence of alien life.

The pair have been designing UFO detecting ground units which they hope to eventually place in countries all over the world.
Marc, who also runs the SkyTour LiveStream YouTube channel where he takes viewers on live tours of the night sky, is currently testing the units in his observatory.
He said: "The UFOTOG II system will bring ufology into the 21st century by marrying real science with standard observation.
"The system will look for phenomena in the sky and if it finds something that isn't a satellite, a plane, or some known object that we can access in a database, it will alert us by sending a message via GPS satellite to our cell phones.
"We'll make all the data we collect open and available to everyone.
"We are open minded and believe that visitation by an advanced alien race is not a scientific improbability."
On the morning of August 28, a strange object visited the San Gabriel Valley. Julian Lopez uploaded a video to YouTube showing a helicopter apparently from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department circling the UFO over West Covina for an inspection. Lopez is convinced there’s a UFO over the San Gabriel Valley that looks like a big eyeball.
Several witnesses claimed to have seen a large, white balloon use for advertising. The balloon was reportedly emblazoned with a corporate logo. It was allegedly seen in the same time and place where the UFO was spotted.
It was still not clear, however, whether the advertising balloon was the same object that sparked UFO sighting reports.
Black ring caught on tape over Jefferson City, Missouri 17-Sep-2017
Black ring caught on tape over Jefferson City, Missouri 17-Sep-2017
Here’s one new daytime footage of a black ring hovering above Jefferson City, MO on 17th September. What do you think it is?
Witness report:
Black ring hovering and sky. At first it looked like smoke. As we approached it looked more solid
My wife and I were driving north on Highway 54. Approximately 10 miles S. of Jefferson City. She brought to my attention this black ring in the sky in front of us. I was driving so she grabbed her phone to take a photo. After the snapshot, she took it upon herself to start recording video. Good move. After discussing it and trying to understand what we just saw, I wish we would’ve stopped to study it closer. We did check the review mirrors as we drove out of sight. The object was still there as we drove away. At first we thought it was a smoke ring. But as we approached it, the black ring looked dense. It definitely was not smoke. If I had to guess it was approximately 500 feet high. And 30 to 50 feet in diameter. The object was stationary as we passed by.
These crop circles have been created using a technique called center-pivot irrigation.

Seen from space, these discs look more like modern art than like potatoes.
But that — plus wheat and chamomile — is what these "crop circles" likely are, according to the NASA Earth Observatory, which posted this photo of agricultural fields in Sharq El Owainat in southwest Egypt yesterday (Sept. 18). An astronaut aboard the International Space Station took the photo.
The water to grow these plants comes from an ancient body of water beneath the sand called the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System, which stretches over an 850,000-square-mile (2.2 million square kilometers) area beneath Egypt, Chad, Libya and Sudan, according to a 2013 study in the journal Environmental Science and Toxicology. It has been periodically recharged with water during glacial periods and was likely last refilled with water prior to or during the most recent glacial period, which ended about 11,700 years ago, according to a 2014 study in the journal Quaternary Research. [Photos: Mysterious Crop Circles]
To make the circles pictured, water is drawn to the surface and sprinkled onto crops through slowly spinning pipes using a process called center-pivot irrigation.
Of course, rotating, human-made sprinklers don't make all crop circles, the elaborate geometric designs that at times take the shape of spirals, other times keys and even jellyfish. The patterns could also be made using a GPSdevice programmed with a pattern along with a laser used to create a straight line between points, suggested Richard Taylor, director of the Materials Science Institute at the University of Oregon, in 2001 in the magazine Physics World.
He investigated how human artists could use microwaves to make the fanciful designs, responding to the discovery that the crops used in the patterns had been exposed to microwave radiation. Some people took that finding as evidence that aliens or the CIA created the circles. If the joints of plant stalks are exposed to microwaves, they expand, causing the plant to flop over without breaking, which matches the state of stalks found in many crop circles, Taylor told Popular Science.
Whoever made them, one thing's for sure: Crop circles are suffused with an alien beauty.
Nick Pope investigated UFOs and conspiracy theories for the MoD, gaining inside information on some of the most infamous cases, including the unsolved Rendlesham UFO incident.
He said he felt compelled to speak out about the Planet X and Nibiru claims which have taken the internet by storm.
Scores of conspiracy theory YouTube videos and website reports claim the end of the world is near, and will begin on September 23, before The Rapture begins.
The theory has its roots in fundamentalist Christian beliefs amid claims an astological constellation on September 23 matches a verse from the Bible.
Scores of YouTube doom videos and evangelical websites point to an astrological constellation on September 23 matching Revelation 12:1–2, which will signal the start of the Rapture and second coming of Christ.
The passage 12:1–2 reads: "And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of 12 stars. She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth."
However, it has also been hijacked by Planet X or Nibiru conspiracy theorists who claim a mythical mini solar system will be visible in the sky from September 23 before passing Earth next month, causing huge earthquakes and tidal waves due to its gravitational pull.

NIBIRU COMING? Nick Pope, former MoD investigator, says Nibiru is a hoax.
Nick Pope
Nibiru threat: Nick Pope speaks out.
Mr Pope dismissed the claims, but said there was a darker side to the conspiracy theory, and it could even lead to avoidable deaths.
He said: "I'm disappointed but not surprised at some of the end of the world predictions currently doing the rounds.
"Nibiru doesn't exist. The world won't end on 23 September. All that's happening is that a hoax is being perpetuated in the name of evangelical Christianity.
"There's absolutely no hard science underpinning these latest claims - it's just the same old doomsday nonsense that we've seen time and time again, over the years."
Mr Pope said after September 23, those pedalling the claims would go quiet or "come up with some lame, bonkers excuse, perhaps claiming that prayer saved us all from Armageddon."
But, he added some people could lose their lives. He said: "On one level it's almost comical, but there's a dark side to this. There are a lot of people out there who believe this sort of thing - conspiracy theorists, the young and impressionable, the mentally ill, and maybe others too.
"The worst case scenario is that vulnerable people might be pushed towards suicide if they think the world's going to end anyway, in a few days' time.
"Let's at least try to learn some lessons here.
"After 23 September passes without incident, it probably won't be long before the next end of the world prophecy comes along.
"When it does, let's just ignore the doom merchants and not give them and their prophesies the oxygen of publicity."

But the claims continue online.
Yesterday, Express.co.uk revealed how British conspiracy theorist Matt Rogers claimed to have obtained the first real image of Planet X heading our way.
However, Mr Rogers provides no detail of how he obtained the alleged image and there is no evidence to back up any of his outlandish claims.
Last month Express.co.uk also exclusively revealed how Christian numerologist and conspiracy theorist David Meade claimed to have obtained secret video footage of the system on its way.
Speaking on Late Night in the Midlands, a US conspiracy theory radio show, Mr Meade claimed he had spoken to a professor of astronomy in Paris based at a large observatory, who told him Nibiru was real.
He said: "I've seen it and he told me the name of the observatory he has seen it at, and he said he had a secret film of it, which he later sent me."
However, remarkably, Meade, who claims to want to warn the public about Nibiru, said he had yet to make the footage public.
Mr Meade, who wrote the book Planet X - The 2017 Arrival, claims the solar eclipse of August 21 was a sign before Nibiru appears in the sky to everyone from September 23, before passing and causing the apocalypse in October.
The Planet X system is alleged to be a mini solar system.
The myth was born in 1976, when writer Zecharia Sitchin claimed that two ancient Middle Eastern cultures – the Babylonians and Sumerians – told of a giant planet – Nibiru – that orbited the Sun every 3,600 years.
The Planet X conspiracy theory was given a boost earlier this year when NASA announced the discovery of a new planet in our solar system which they named Planet Nine.
They found evidence of a real planet up to 10 times the mass of Earth in the outer reaches of the Solar System, in the constellation Orion.
However, NASA says Planet Nine will not pass earth, and the Planet X theory of an apocalypse is completely false.
There have been many predicted end of world dates that have all come and passed before, as this one is likely to.
But after he reviewed the clip he discovered something mysterious in the sky.
“If we brought some contrast into the footage we can witness what can only be described as a cube,” he says.
“We can now see what the viewer saw. He noticed a faint line in the clouds that gave him an impression it was geometric.

MYSTERY: A cube-shaped UFO is claimed to have spotted hiding in plain sight
“As you can see here, what was once invisible we can now see what can only be described as a square or cube-shaped UFO.”
After more examination of the strange video – taken in Ontario, Ohio – Tyler comes to the conclusion it is an extremely rare sighting of a craft.
“Had this been just a clear blue sky, I doubt we will be seeing anything at all. So then you have to ask yourself are we seeing some sort of cloaking mechanism because clouds do not move and form in this way.
“The cube, or square-shaped, is one of the most mysterious as it’s the one we rarely see and the most elusive you will see.”
YOUTUBE
BIZARRE: Tyler Glockner has previously posted wacky videos of supposed cube-shaped UFOs
More than 83,000 people have seen the clip since it was posted to Tyler’s YouTube channel secureteam10 today.
Viewers had mixed reactions to what the object could be, with one suggesting it “is a cloaked vehicle that was un-cloaked by indirect light”.
Another added: “That has to be some sort of alien spaceship.”
But a third disagreed, writing: “Clearly just a glitch in the camera.”

Mystery in the Southwest: A Look Inside the Infamous Bradshaw Ranch
Mystery in the Southwest: A Look Inside the Infamous Bradshaw Ranch
From the Phoenix Lights to the Mogollon Monster, Arizona has long been known as a mecca for the strange. According to the Mutual UFO Network’s reporting archives, Arizona ranked as one of the top three states in the country for UFO sightings per capita in 2013. Arguably, one of the most concentrated areas of reported anomalous activity is centered in Yavapai and Coconino counties. This area was first inhabited by indigenous tribes including the Anasazi, Hohokam, and the Sinagua, all of whom were deeply rooted in the belief that their ancestors came from the stars. Petroglyphs dot the canyon walls, hinting that visitors from other worlds had wandered amongst them and many locals maintain the belief that otherworldly visitors remain attracted to this unique area.
Sedona, a small city located within this region, has roughly ten thousand residents and attracts more than four million tourists annually. Some come solely for the natural beauty of the unique red-colored sandstone formations while others come to explore the mystical and spiritual implications of the area. Known for its vortices (sites where the energy of an area is allegedly magnified), metaphysical bookstores, crystal shops, and aura readers, the city openly embraces its eclectic personality. In fact, these traits, combined with the abundance of UFO sightings, have prompted many paranormal researchers and enthusiasts to relocate here permanently.
Just outside of Sedona down a long, rough, dirt road winding through the desert lays an expansive ranch that currently sits quietly deserted. The weeds are overgrown and the ground is parched. In the distance you can hear the eerie squeak of the windmill slowly turning. The gate towards the main ranch house is closed and a small sign indicates that trespassing is illegal as the property is owned by the United States government, specifically the U.S. Forest Service. Hiking trails line the outside of the perimeter, though they seldom see many visitors. But the ranch wasn’t always this way and there are some who firmly believe that this serene piece of land isn’t as quiet as we’re led to believe.
Bradshaw Ranch
In 1945, Bob Bradshaw, a budding photographer and actor, moved to Oak Creek Canyon to alleviate seasonal allergies. Soon after he opened a Kodak licensed photography shop and quickly established himself as a pillar in the community. It was during this time that Hollywood gained significant interest in using the majestic red rocks as a backdrop in Westerns, television programs, and commercials. Bradshaw became integral in their productions.

In 1960, Bradshaw acquired a large parcel of land covering 140-acres. At the time, the only remaining structure was an old adobe house. He quickly put to use his Hollywood contacts and utilized the ranch as a filming destination. According to ADayintheWest.com, the tour company operated by the Bradshaws, Bob worked on twenty-eight films, nineteen television shows, and seventy-seven commercials during his lifetime, and the ranch itself hosted five films, two television series, and numerous commercials. An old western town movie set was erected on the grounds during filming of the 1967 Elvis Presley film Stay Away Joe, and remained a fixture of the property until the 1986. Bitter Creek, as the town was known, was rebuilt in the mid 1990s. It was during this time when John Bradshaw took over management of the land and utilized it as a dude-ranch: a tourist destination for horseback rides, cookouts, and jeep tours. Bradshaw Ranch wasn’t all Hollywood glamour though; it hosts an obscure history that revealed itself suddenly, though for those involved, not unexpectedly.
Strange Anomalies Plague the Bradshaw Family:
Dirt road leading to the ranch.
It was in 1992 that Bob Bradshaw Jr.’s wife Linda, along with several of her sons, began to catalog unusual activity on the property. It began slowly with sightings of unusual lights in the clear desert sky and escalated into tales of Bigfoot, UFOs, extraterrestrial beings, dinosaurs, and strange creatures. The experiences she reported, along with other witnesses, border on the strange side, even for the UFO community.
Linda firmly believed that the ranch was home to what she referred to as a light portal. She inferred that whatever the anomalous and strange activity occurring was due to an inter-dimensional window to which creatures benign and benevolent could freely travel from one dimension to another. This is not a new notion however; in 1975 the interdimensional hypothesis (IDH) was presented as a favorable theory by Jacques Vallée in his collaboration with Dr. J. Allen Hynek, The Edge of Reality: A Progress Report on Unidentified Flying Objects. IDH states that UFOs and related paranormal phenomena are not visitations from other planets, but from other dimensions that coexist as separate entities alongside our own.
In 1995, Linda, along with her close friend and UFO researcher Tom Dongo, published a book filled with their alleged encounters and photographs they claim are otherworldly beings, strange flying craft, and unexplained light anomalies. Merging Dimensions: The Opening Portals of Sedona was a book they thought would change the world, but they were both disappointed and frustrated that it released to little fanfare.
One encounter Linda described was that of being woken by one of her sons, who was in the company of a woman and her daughter, in the early hours of the morning. She alleges that at approximately 2:45 a.m. her son and the woman not only spotted an unidentified craft but had an encounter with extraterrestrial beings as well. She describes:
Strolling past the window were four short-statured aliens wearing tight-fitting one-piece uniforms of a light tan color. They were what are typically called the Zeta Reticuli (also known as the Grays), only these appeared to be a bit more ashen-colored, almost white. Once the beings were out of sight and the witnesses recomposed themselves, the three of them jumped into their car and sped to the house where I was sleeping. I remember so vividly how my son vigorously shook my arm to wake me up. I can still hear the trepidation in his voice as he said, “Mom, wake up. They’re here!” I raised up and said, “Who’s here?” He exclaimed, “The aliens, Mom.”
The encounter further evolved when Linda saw one of the beings outside, and resolved to investigate further the following day. Small unexplained footprints were spotted in the dirt and the evidence was documented via her son’s video camera. If the story is to be believed, the strangest turn occurred when the witnesses spotted what they referred to as a dinosaur in one of the washes. Two of the witnesses described a dusty-colored, five foot, lizard-like dinosaur that stood erect, while the other two only made it in time to see a long tail vanishing into the bushes. In future encounters, they would discover large reptilian-like prints on a reoccurring basis.
The strange sightings persisted, and Linda continued to document to the best of her ability. She would take photographs in random areas to see if things would develop on film that she could sense but were invisible to the naked eye. The photos were taken on 35mm film and developed at a local photo processing center. She amassed a large collection of photos of light anomalies, what she believed to be alien beings, as well as various unidentified craft. She also captured and had interactions with a Bigfoot she referred to as “Big Girl” and believed that she was in the company of young offspring as well.
As a self-described animal lover, Linda became increasingly agitated that some of her dogs and horses were falling ill with tumors and other maladies the vet could not rationally explain. She was also disturbed to discover that someone or something had torn the manes off several of her horses. She was perplexed, stating, “Her lovely, long golden mane was missing. The mare’s mane was not cut off evenly. It looked as if it had been torn off, resulting in extremely jagged edges.” She surmised that it could not be the work of humans, but what ripped the hair and the purpose of the action remains a mystery to this day.
The unusual activity on the ranch continued to be an almost everyday occurrence until the late 1990s when it seemed to stall quite suddenly.
Rumors of a Cover-Up
On September 22, 2000 in a USDA Forest Service Release, Bill Kusner, spokesperson for Keep Sedona Beautiful, alluded to the government’s interest in the property. He stated,
These public purchases will serve to preserve the spectacular open landscape well known throughout the world, to provide opportunities for additional access for recreation, and to protect archaeological resources. Keep Sedona Beautiful is hopeful that a $3.5 million appropriation in FY 2001 will allow for the purchase of 90 acres in Yavapai County locally known as the Bradshaw Ranch.

After years of property tax hikes and the government’s pressing interest in the property, the ranch became another parcel of federal land, acquired by the U.S. Forest Service. In May of 2003, the Bradshaw’s vacated the property.
Conspiracy theorists were quick to dismiss Kusner’s words, and insinuated that the ranch was really purchased in order to conceal the powerful inter-dimensional portal alleged to exist on the property. Others speculate that it was a tactical maneuver to conceal a top-secret military base and an even larger extraterrestrial cover-up.
There have been rumors for decades of the existence of top-secret underground bases and an elaborate tunnel system, which some suggest is used by both extraterrestrials and the U.S. military. They vary in location, and some believe there to be entrances at a large cement plant in Jerome, beneath Bradshaw Ranch, and in various canyon areas around Sedona. Numerous reports of hikers encountering and being threatened by heavily armed soldiers with no visible insignias on their uniforms have strengthened this opinion in believers. UFO researcher Tom Dongo expands on these ideas in his book Mysterious Sedona: Year 2000 edition:
A machine gun, usually an M-16 (or in some cases semi-automatic pistols) is then leveled at the hikers. By the tone of the voice of the “soldiers” the hiker(s) is left with no doubt that he will be shot on the spot if he does not turn around, retrace his steps, and rapidly leave the area . . . every single one of these gunpoint encounters has taken place along the route of the probable tunnel system.
Those looking for hard evidence of these claims won’t find it. There are plenty of stories of suspicious activity, missing persons, and aliens and UFOs spotted in conjunction with soldiers, but no substantiated evidence exists to prove these theories. Military activity in the area could very well be routine training exercises and those hikers asked to turn around may be done for their own safety.
The Ranch Today
There are a variety of researchers and authors who supplement their time by providing UFO and vortex tours in the area. Several of these tours include a visit to Bradshaw Ranch for those hoping to catch something out of the ordinary. Tourists can venture out with Sedona resident Jocelyn Buckner, who wrote a guide specifically focused on the ranch. She urges visitors to respect the fence-line and claims, “There’s no reason to trespass. Invite the ‘unseen others’ to visit you. You will hear, see, or feel them if you remain open.”
The most reported “sightings” during these tours are photos of “orbs.” The orbs are not visible to the eye, but show up on photographs often looking as if they are attracted to certain individuals. The orb phenomenon is an extremely controversial topic with proponents offering up the “it’s not dust” mantra. Opponents and many professional photo analysts surmise that the majority of objects referred to as orbs have very simple, terrestrial explanations. Objects appearing in the circle of confusion, or the point where the lens of a camera cannot focus, and dust, moisture, and other particles in the area can form this optical illusion.
The ranch continues to attract international recognition as a paranormal hotspot through various television programs, books, and websites. In April of 2013, Discovery Channel’s Uncovering Aliens filmed multiple segments at the ranch. During filming, self-described extraterrestrial contactee Steven Jones alleges that he experienced his own bout of the unknown. While an interview was being conducted with Dongo, Jones had wandered off on his own, past the properties windmill above the fence-line on the hill. Jones returned thirty-or-so minutes later, interrupting the crew, flustered, asking the time and yelling for everyone to look at his wristwatch. It had stopped. He recounted that he had heard unusual voices or odd whispers coming from somewhere around him, experienced a brief period of missing time, and visually pointed out the electrical disturbance of his watch. The experience was not aired on television, and we can only speculate as to what really happened when Jones was alone in the desert.
Conclusion
Bradshaw Ranch is set to remain an enigma. The likelihood that any serious investigation could take place, akin to the in-depth scientific endeavors of the National Institute for Discovery Sciences (NIDS) at Skinwalker Ranch in Utah, is slim. The U.S. Forest Service maintains a strict no trespassing policy in order to protect the historic and anthropological landmarks on the land.
This small piece, as well as the expansive canyons surrounding Sedona, will continue to be shroud in mystery and attract the curious and likeminded. Its residents will continue to defend their experiences and beliefs wholeheartedly and unapologetically. If you do take a trip out to Bradshaw, you may not see anything mysterious, but there is a calm quiet, an eerie breeze, and maybe, locals will tell you, something watching unseen in the distance.

Filer’s Files #38 – 2017 We Can Take ET Home - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Lockheed Skunk Works Director says We Can Take ET Home, UFOs Collect Electrical Energy, The Cygnus Loop Shockwave Supernova Explosion, Astronaut Photography of Earth Shows UFOs, Strange Structures on Moon and Mars, Faces on Mars and Earth, Little People and President Donald Trump has given military orders for U.S. forces to shoot.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Nevada, New Jersey, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Canada, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Puerto Rico, and England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The US Air Force investigated UFOs publicly for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.
Special Projects
Lockheed Skunk Works Director says We Can Take ET Home.
Ben Rich “We already have the means to travel among the stars but these technologies are locked up in Black Projects…and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity. Anything you can imagine, we already know how to do.” – Ben Rich, Former Director of Lockheed Skunk works shortly before his passing
“We now have the technology to take ET home. No, it won’t take someone’s lifetime to do it. There is an error in the equations. We know what it is. We now have the capability to travel to the stars.” – Ben Rich, Former Director of Lockheed Skunk works shortly before his passing
Ben Rich was asked how UFO propulsion functioned. His reply was remarkable. “Let me ask you. How does ESP work?” The man asking the question of Mr. Rich said – “All points in time and space are connected?” Ben Rich then replied, “That’s how it works!” There was more than one confirmation of Ben Rich’s words on the subject of UFOs. Here is one:
William Hamilton wrote, “Rich Andrews was a close personal friend of Lockheed’s “Skunk Works” CEO Ben Rich, the hand-picked successor of Skunk Works founder Kelly Johnson and the man famous for the F-117 Nighthawk “Stealth” fighter, its half-pint prototype the HAVE BLUE, and the top secret F-19 Stealth Interceptor. Before Rich died of cancer, Andrews took my questions to him. Rich confirmed:
There are two types of UFOs — the ones we build, and ones THEY build. We learned from both crash retrievals and actual “Hand-me-downs.” The Government knew, and until 1969 took an active hand in the administration of that information. After a 1969 Nixon “Purge”, administration was handled by an international board of directors in the private sector.
Drawing by Bill McDonald
“‘An’ item” — as opposed to “‘The’ item” — was recovered near the World’s only combat operational atom bomb base (Roswell AAF) in 1947. Hull design, aerodynamic measurements and propulsion info was passed directly to Jack Northrop and Kelly Johnson, beginning in 1950, with a major block of data being passed on from “The Working Group” at Wright Patterson AFB’s Foreign Technologies Division in 1952. “‘The’ item” refers to the top secret designation of Kelly’s original variant of the U-2 (TR-1) spy plane in Congressional and Pentagon budgets in the 1950s.
Nearly all “Biomorphic” aerospace designs were inspired by the Roswell spacecraft, from Kelly’s SR-71 Blackbird onward to today’s drones, UCAVs, and aerospace craft. The Roswell craft had a stingray-skate-like diamond triangular wing form. The hexagonal power cell belly tiles were sub ducted under a thin rim layer of approximately eighteen inches. There were big hexagons near the nose, shrinking in size towards the tail and trailing wing edges. Ben also described a complex “Power grid” on the ships belly.
The inward canted vertical stabilizers of the HAVE BLUE, many Drones, some UCAVs, and the SR-71 matched the 30 degree inward cant of the Roswell spacecraft’s shark fin-shaped pair of vertical stabilizers or “Winglets.” The same goes for the wing camber to fuselage “Blend” of the airframe designs.
The outward cants of the F-22 Raptor, the F-117, the McDonnell Douglas YF-23, and the TACIT BLUE stealth concept prototypes perform similar aerodynamic functions for stability in high performance flight.
UFOs Collect Electrical Energy
UFOs appear to have overcome gravity based on their ability to maneuver, tremendous speed, and ability to launch into space. It takes an enormous amount of electrical energy to directly deform the gravity tidal force curvature field! Indeed it takes 4 billion tons of mass energy equivalents to make a 1-fermi change in the local radius of curvature! Measurements of the power coming from some UFOs indicate they have the electrical energy equivalent to a power plant that would provide electrical power for a small city. UFOs are frequently seen hovering above power lines, power plants and electrical thunderstorms. We can speculate they use the electrical energy to overcome gravity. Numerous power blackouts often are associated with UFOs.
The study of UFOs propulsion system will lead to new forms of energy. High speed UFOs are frequently reported as leaving a green trail indicating they are using hydrogen in their propulsion system.
The Cygnus Loop Shockwave Supernova Explosion
NASA photographs prove there is substantial cosmic energy in space. The shockwave from a 20,000 year-old supernova explosion in the constellation of Cygnus is still expanding into interstellar space. The collision of this fast moving wall of gas with a stationary cloud has heated it causing it to glow in visible as well as high energy radiation, producing the nebula known as the Cygnus Loop (NGC 6960/95). The nebula is located a mere 1,400 light-years away. The colors used here indicate emission from different kinds of atoms excited by the shock: oxygen-blue, sulfur-red, and hydrogen-green.

Astronaut Photography of Earth Shows UFOs
UFO is at the far right of lightning in the cloud formation
The STS-96 resupply mission to the ISS was in its last days and the Shuttle Discovery had undocked from the International Space Station the day before on November 26, 2007. The Crew was enjoying some much deserved rest. This picture is from late in the Florida sequence, the last of many anomalies, and the location is now off the coast of the USA and a line of flashing thunderstorms can be seen over the ocean. The camera had been panned away from where previously seen anomalies had been moving about far below. This didn’t last long though, as a new object appeared from bottom right. The object circled is what we will follow. Although the field of view is moving steadily north east as the Shuttle sails along on orbit, this new object looked to the human eye to have a direct course toward center screen. We can see the object is now clearly headed for the center of the picture. At this point more lightning starts flashing and the bright area just beyond the arrowhead is indeed another flash of powerful lightning. The camera operator (INCO) has a very clear interest in this object, as he has been moving the camera to follow the object. This apparent interest is confirmed when the camera operator decides to zoom in a second time for a closer look. Just as it seemed we were going to get a good look at the object, the INCO cut the feed and we were left looking at a screen filled with interference. Thanks to the late Jeff Challender
Editors Note: The UFO appears to stop above the line of thunderstorms. We can assume the UFO is taking on both electrical energy and water. The water provides both oxygen and hydrogen and electrical energy that can be used for propulsion.
NASA UFO Photos
Steve Tobias is collecting NASA photos from the shuttle missions. He writes, “Almost every photo in the NASA archives has UFOs in it, almost everyone but not all…. A close up example is from STS 47 mission flown by Endeavor with a photo taken September 12, 1992. I am working on the analysis based on the evidence I uncovered from viewing NASA video feeds that were recorded and released through the thoughtful, generous people who used youtube.com to share freely what they had on video. UFO formations regularly follow the NASA expeditions in space it seems.
STS-68 photo was taken on October 4, 1994, over the Atlantic Ocean. It doesn’t look like clouds to me and we have seen the videos from people showing many pale white spheres in daytime, meaning bright enough to be seen even when sunlight is in the atmosphere of earth. The light intensity of the objects is roughly equal to the reflection of sunlight off the moon.
A rough outline of close up of orb reveals a structured craft with at least 2 portals with internal light sources, or the portals are a result of back light effects in space reflecting off the spherical metallic surface of a UFO. Many people who placed videos they had of past nasa moving UFOs in flight near the shuttle aided me as to what type of formations the ufos were in around earth orbit.
Frequently photographed by the astronauts are the cylinder- shaped white UFOs. I have seen several objects in nasa photos that show the type of form that might be of alien origin. They are thousands of feet long and much larger than any known craft produced on Earth. In one Aurora photo an object like a long cylindrical (vapor creating coated?) object was seen in the center of a huge perfect circle contrail and in the next photo it was leaving that contrail cloud.

Moon Has Strange City like Structures
Michael Bara, Steve Troy and other researchers such as Bruce Cornet have done a great job in searching for evidence of artificial structures on the Moon. This area, roughly the size of the Los Angeles basin, displays a highly anomalous rectilinear pattern across the Lunar landscape. The arrangement is reminiscent of a ruined city, and close-up views reveal a variety of unexplainable features.
This large area near the crater Ukert is strikingly rectilinear and has a very distinct and unnatural looking boundary. Among them are the “paperclip”, the “crystal palace” and “Arcology Row”, the deep carved linear pattern across the mountains in the foreground. Another completely bizarre feature in this frame is this “carved out” square. It sits just at the base of the arcology mountain chain and clearly shows signs of having been subjected to modification. More data by geologist and paleontologist Dr. Bruce Cornet is at //www.informantnews.com/starshipgamma/x/moon1.txt Thanks to Michael Bara Copyright 1997 – http://www.lunaranomalies.com/crisium_dome_follow.htm
NASA scientists call this beautiful image near the South Pole of Mars, the Inca City. It was taken by the Malin camera. Notice face at the top of the image. This region of Mars, has been the subject of some extensive research, culminating in the publication of a book called Eagles Disobey: The Case for Inca City, Mars and “What NASA is Telling You About Mars” by Ted Twietmeyer.— The images imply this is the ruins of a city based on the precise angles at virtually each and every wall-junction!
Also, the Mars Rovers are taking photos of mechanical artifacts and evidence of alien structures. NASA claims they are looking for signs of water that we found years ago. We have located many artifacts that show evidence of former life on Mars. Is the atmosphere far denser than what we’ve been told for many years? NASA launched the Mars Reconnaissance Observer satellite. This is now in orbit around Mars.
Faces on Mars and Earth
Dr. Bruce Cornet writes, “Now that Dr. John Brandenburg, Plasma Physicist, has made his splash regarding evidence for two enormous atomic (hydrogen?) explosions on Mars just to the northwest and northeast of the Mars Face in the Cydonia Complex, His prophetic statement echoes in the halls of academe: “Mars presents the human race with a Darwinian intelligence test, and so-far, we are failing it. Scientists cannot connect the dots at Mars because the resulting picture is too terrifying to accept.” J. Brandenburg, And some of the radioactive isotopes identified by Brandenburg as having been produced by nuclear reaction have short half-lives, and wouldn’t still be around on Mars if those atomic explosions were millions of years old.
Note: I discussed the explosions on Mars with Dr. Brandenburg and he thought they may be relatively recent. Also, the nuclear explosion can be caused by war or by natural means such as asteroids setting off uranium deposits. Mars gravity is relativity small compared to Earth, so a society at war or contemplating heavy asteroid bombardment may choose to escape to Earth. The pyramids and statues on Mars are similar to those in Egypt.
See if you can spot the remnants of the Face on Earth (FOE) in the topographic map I attach, before looking at the Face on Mars overlay image. And then ask the question, how can the pass through the mouth of that face, since rivers cannot flow uphill? And why is there a perfectly good channel for the Wallkill River that wraps around the top of the face as a Yazoo tributary? Was the river diverted by a canal after the Wisconsinin meltdown?
Would that indicate someone in ancient America knew about the Face on Mars? And why does that Yazoo tributary empty into Echo Lake? And why is there a small nearby lake near Walden, NY, called Lake Osiris, and on the topographic map a label of Osiris Colony next to that lake? And why are two mountains further south in the Wallkill River Valley named Mt. Adam and Mt. Eve? Is the Universe trying to tell us something? If what Bruce discovered is real, and indeed the centers of the Crater on Mars and the Crater traces on Earth were originally at the same Latitude of 41 degrees 36 minutes N. Why is it so difficult for people to wrap their heads around the concept that we are not the first high-tech space-faring civilization of hominids on Earth? Pride, self-image, and arrogance for not being the first? Note that the previous Pleistocene Interglacial (Sangamonian or Eemian: 118,000-139,000 years ago) was long enough to allow one of our ancestors to do more than make fire, chip rocks, hunt and gather, especially if Homo sapiens has been in existence for at least 200,000 years..
Dr. Bruce Cornet writes, “We are slowly being awakened to the fact that alien technology/has the keys to time control and time travel. The Akashic record “The Book of Life,” and dimension is out of time, and therefore spans all time at the same time. I have wondered how Mars and Earth could be so out of phase, with the Cydonia Complex built first as proposed by speculators. Finding the Face on Earth means it was created first, but how could that be if Dr. Brandenburg is correct, and the atomic war that destroyed Mars could be millions of years old? With time travel, your grandfather could be born after you. Or perhaps the Face on Mars is slightly younger than the Face on Earth, and all this was planned eons ago.
When I discovered that the Rennes le Chateau, France diagrams of Wood (Genesis, 1986) from the book Revelations of the Holy Grail fit over Philadelphia, I was astounded. How can two areas thousands of miles apart have such similar geography to the extent that the Masons knew where to build and how to build the City of Philadelphia? The Schuylkill River follows the exact path it had to for symbolizing the Serpent swimming up river into the Womb of the Egyptian goddess Isis or Delphia. Phila means womb, and delphia obviously refers to the alternative name for Isis. Wood showed the Serpent still in the sky in France (quarry carving), before being cast down to Earth. The Masons showed the Serpent swimming up river from the Delaware River (be aware of del for Delphia), in order to fertilize Isis and be the father of Horus.
The Serpent appears to originate from the southern bank of the Delaware, where a small town named Red Bank is located in New Jersey. At the time of my discovery, I lived is a second Red Bank on the eastern side of New Jersey. Kevin Smith, from Red Bank, produced the movie Dogma, where the gate to heaven is located in the Catholic Church at Red Bank where I lived at the time. How synchronistic is that!!!http://www.sunstar-solutions.com/AOP/esoteric/esoBryn.htm#The Meaning of Red Bank
And there is an old Roman road that runs up the Rennes le Chateau valley through the legs of Isis, just as the Schuylkill River does. Serpent mounds interest me also. David Wood (1986; see Planetary Mysteries) discovered a serpent feature in the valley of Rennes in France. He showed that this feature was consistent with mythology, which placed the Serpent in the heavens, where according to the Rennes-le-Chateau terraglyphs (which he discovered); the Arc Crescent of Nut is positioned across the head of the Extended Pentagram.
Then I was led to discover that the Freemasons designed Philadelphia after the same secret diagram. Mysteriously, the Serpent is no longer positioned at the head of the Extended Pentagram and inside the Arc Crescent of Nut.
And Bryn Mawr is located at the right hand of Isis (Delphia), just as the mesa on top of which the town of Rennes le Chateau is located on high ground (meaning of Bryn Mawr in Welch).
Again, who was directing all of this hundreds (if not thousands) of years apart and thousands of miles apart? The ground plan or template for this connection had to have started in Earth time back before the last Ice Age for the geographic markers to be put in place, as Wood recognized for France. And the Paris Rose Line of Longitude goes through all the European sacred sites and the Rennes valley!
In “Cold, Hard Facts” (Popular Science, June 2013: 31-32) geologists and climatologists have identified a three thousand year period of ice core global warming (127-130,000 y.b.p.) in the middle of the Eemian (Sangamonian) Interglacial, during which global temperatures reached 3-5 degrees C hotter than today. Was this heating period due to a man-caused runaway greenhouse effect, or did the Sun actually get hotter? There are ancient myths, pointed out by Martinez, of the Sun getting hotter and/or closer to Earth, and forcing the Little People underground; a reference to this anomalous period of global warming (right where we are today in the middle of our Interglacial)? Did the Little People cover their cities and homes with earth mounds for protection from such heating, and that habit persisted after that period of global warming ended? Did the Hobbits really exist? These questions are why I think Martinez’s book is very relevant to those interested in the truth about our ancestry, and who are not willing to accept some consensus interpretation because it is culturally or politically acceptable. (Dr. Susan B. Martinez, the Lost History of the Little People, 2013).http://www.sunstar-solutions.com/AOP/review/lost-history-of-little-people.htm
Shoot North Korean Missiles Down
President Donald Trump has given military orders for U.S. forces to shoot down and destroy any missile launched from North Korea and moving towards the continental United States, Hawaii and Guam, Newsmax has learned. Sources close to the president’s national security team tell Newsmax that the order was given to Pentagon brass in the wake of last month’s threat by North Korea to fire a ballistic missile aimed at Guam, a U.S. territory. There is general consensus in the White House and the Pentagon that North Korea is quite close to the ‘red zone’ and that the U.S. must act soon or lose the upper hand,” one official told Newsmax.
Bolton, who has advised the president informally on security matters, said the U.S. is being “driven in the direction of a preemptive strike because North Korea won’t back down.” “We are close to the finish line,” Bolton said, referring to Pyongyang’s recent missile and nuclear developments. “It highlights how little time we have here. “Just days after North Korea’s nuclear test detonation, Han Tae Song, the North Korean ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, told a disarmament conference the U.S. could expect more “more gift packages.” If the U.S. military does act on President Trump’s orders to shoot down a missile, this would be achieved through different U.S. anti-ballistic programs under the aegis of the Missile Defense Agency.
Among these programs are the 26-year-old Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, (THAAD), whose “hit to kill” interceptors are designed to shoot down an incoming missile through kinetic energy that explodes the missile on impact. “It’s called stopping a bullet with a bullet,” one veteran intelligence expert told Newsmax. The technology appears to be working.
In late August, a day after the North Korea missile flew over Japan, the U.S. Missile Agency conducted a test that successfully struck and destroyed a missile.
