NASA's Mars Odyssey Snaps Its First Images of Moon Phobos
NASA's Mars Odyssey Snaps Its First Images of Moon Phobos
By Hanneke Weitering, Space.com Staff Writer
After 16 years of orbiting the Red Planet, NASA's record-breaking Mars Odyssey spacecraft has captured its first photos of the Martian moon Phobos.
Mars Odyssey launched in 2001 and is the oldest operational spacecraft at the Red Planet. Since it arrived at Mars, the spacecraft has only looked down at the Martian surface and hasn't been pointing its cameras up at Mars' moons. But on Sept. 29, Mars Odyssey snapped its first-ever images of the potato-shaped moon Phobos.
The spacecraft's Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) camera has helped researchers study the composition of Mars by providing both visible-light and infrared images of the planet's surface. Now that Mars Odyssey has shown that it is capable of imaging moons as well, the mission can begin to do the same types of observations of both Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos. [Moons of Mars: Amazing Photos of Phobos and Deimos]
"We now have the capability of rotating the spacecraft for THEMIS observations," Jeffrey Plaut, Mars Odyssey project scientist, said in a statement. "There is heightened interest in Phobos because of the possibility that future astronauts could perhaps use it as an outpost" for missions to Mars, he added.
While other spacecraft on and around Mars have photographed Phobos in the past, this is the first time that any spacecraft has captured infrared images of the moon.
By using THEMIS to look at Phobos, NASA scientists can see how the temperature changes across the moon's surface, especially when the sun rises and sets on the moon. "Part of the observed face of Phobos was in pre-dawn darkness, part in morning daylight," Victoria Hamilton, THEMIS Deputy Principal Investigator, said in the statement.
The infrared view of Phobos during sunrise "provides information about how quickly the ground warms, which is related to the texture of the surface," NASA officials said. "As barefoot beach walks can confirm, sand warms or cools quicker than rocks or pavement."
"Including a predawn area in the observation is useful because all the heating from the previous day's sunshine has reached its minimum there," Hamilton said. "As you go from predawn area to morning area you get to watch the heating behavior. If it heats up very quickly, it's likely not very rocky but dusty instead."
Scientists believe Phobos is made of material similar to Type I or II carbonaceous chondrites, the stuff that makes up asteroids in the solar system. Its rocky interior is more like a pile of gravitationally bound rubblethan a solid rock, and the surface is covered in about 3 feet (1 meter) of dusty powder – which scientists suspect is the result of meteorite impacts. The Martian moon is also covered in craters and strange grooves that may have come from those impacts.
With new thermal imagery of Phobos, scientists can figure out the mineral composition of Phobos and learn details about the texture of its surface, NASA officials said. And now that the team has demonstrated that Mars Odyssey can safely rotate to observe Mars' moons, they're planning a whole series of observations of both Phobos and Deimos.
"We want to get observations under all types of lighting — fully daylit, a small crescent, during eclipse," Hamilton said. "We hope this is the first of several observations that will help us understand Phobos and Deimos."
The distances between stars are vast, which is why star travel is so far. Read here about conventional propulsion and warp drives, plus about Breakthrough Starshot’s new idea to send nanostarships to Alpha Centauri.
Outer space is big. Really, really, really big. And that’s why NASA has no plans at present to send a spacecraft to any of the several thousand known planets beyond our solar system. Meanwhile, with respect to star travel, NASA isn’t the only game in town anymore. In April 2016, Russian high-tech billionaire Yuri Milner announced a new and ambitious initiative called Breakthrough Starshot, which intends to pour $100 million into proof-of-concept studies for an entirely new technology for star travel, aimed at unmanned space flight at 20% of light speed, with the goal of reaching the Alpha Centauri system – and, presumably, its newly discovered planet Proxima b – within 20 years. Is it possible? No one knows yet, but Alpha Centauri is an obvious target. It’s the nearest star system to our sun at 4.3 light-years away. That’s about 25 trillion miles (40 trillion km) away from Earth – nearly 300,000 times the distance from the Earth to the sun. Follow the links below to learn more about why star travel is so formidable, and about how we might accomplish it.
These 4 conventional spacecraft are headed out of the solar system. A 5th spacecraft, New Horizons, will also eventually leave the solar system. But conventional spacecraft move slowly in contrast to the vast distances between stars. It’ll be tens of thousands of years before one of these craft encounters a star. Image via Wikimedia Commons.
Why won’t a conventional rocket work?
Consider the Space Shuttles, which traveled only a few hundred kilometers above Earth’s surface, into Earth orbit. If Earth were the size of a sand grain, this distance would be about the width of a hair in contrast to a 6-mile (10-km) distance to Alpha Centauri.
The Space Shuttles weren’t starships, but we have built starships. Five craft from Earth are currently on their way out of the solar system, headed into interstellar space. They are the two Pioneer spacecraft, the two Voyager spacecraft, and the New Horizons spacecraft. All are moving extremely slowly relative to the speed needed to travel among the stars.
So … consider the two Voyagers – Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 – launched in 1977. Neither Voyagers is aimed toward Alpha Centauri, but if one of them were – assuming it maintained its current rate of speed – it would requires take tens of thousands of years to this next-nearest star. Eventually, the Voyagers will pass other stars. In about 40,000 years, Voyager 1 will drift within 1.6 light-years (9.3 trillion miles) of AC+79 3888, a star in the constellation of Camelopardalis. In some 296,000 years, Voyager 2 will pass 4.3 light-years from Sirius, the brightest star in the sky. Hmm, 4.3 light-years. That’s the distance between us and Alpha Centauri.
What about the New Horizons spacecraft, the first spacecraft ever to visit Pluto and its moons. NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft travels at 36,373 miles per hour (58,536 km/h). Launched from Earth in mid-January, 2006, it reached Pluto in mid-July, 2015 … nine-and-a-half years later. If New Horizons were aimed toward the Alpha Centauri system, which it isn’t, it would take this spacecraft about 78,000 years to get there.
So conventional rockets won’t work because they are too slow.

What if we could travel faster than light? Countless sci-fi books and movies are built around the concept, which brings with its challenges to physicists’ understanding of how space and time actually work. Still, a few years ago, Dr. Harold “Sonny” White – who leads NASA’s Advanced Propulsion Team at Johnson Space Center – claimed to have made a discovery which made plausible the idea of faster-than-light travel, via a concept known as the Alcubierre warp drive.
This concept is based on ideas put forward by Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994. He suggested that faster-than-light travel might be achieved by distorting spacetime, as shown in the illustration above.
Harold “Sonny” White has been working to investigate these ideas further. They are highly speculative, but possibly valid, and involve a solution of the Einstein field equations, specifically how space, time and energy interact. In June of 2014, White unveiled images of what a faster-than-light ship might look like. Artist Mark Rademaker based these designs on White’s theoretical ideas. He said creating them took more than 1,600 hours, and they are very cool. See the 2014 faster-than-light spacecraft designs on this Flickr page.
The video below presents Harold White’s talk at the SpaceVision 2013 Space Conference in November, 2013 in Phoenix. He talks about the concepts and progress in warp-drive development over recent decades.
Is it faster-than-light travel possible, via the Alcubierre warp drive? As with conventional propulsion systems, the problem is energy. In this case, it’s the type of energy the warp drive would need. Daily Kos reported:
In order to form the warp field/bubble, a region of space-time with negative energy density (i.e. repulsing space-time) is necessary. Scientific models predict exotic matter with a negative energy may exist, but it has never been observed. All forms of matter and light have a positive energy density, and create an attractive gravitational field.
So faster-than-light travel via the Alcubierre warp drive is highly speculative, to say the least.
With current technologies, it’s not possible.
However, if it could be accomplished, it would reduce the travel time to Alpha Centauri from thousands of years to just days.
The Alpha Centauri system. It’s at least a double system, maybe a triple system, but we see it with the eye as just one star. In this image – via MSX/IPAC/NASA – you can almost make out the double nature of Alpha Centauri. At 4.3 light-years away, this star system is the closest to Earth.
Breakthrough Starshot.
In April, 2016, Yuri Milner’s organization Breakthrough Initiatives announced a $100 million investment in proof-of concept studies for an all-new way to get to the stars.
Well, not all new., exactly. The Breakthrough Starshot project relies on technologies that are being tested now, and also on some new technologies that have been around only a few years. But it does put these technologies together in a way that’s entirely new, and extremely visionary.
The Breakthrough Starshot team has some heavy hitters, including physicist Stephen Hawking and Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg. It proposes to use the $100 million to learn whether it’s possible to use a 100-gigawatt light beam and light sails to propel some 1,000 ultra-lightweight nanocraft to 20% of light speed. If it’s shown to be possible, such a mission could (hypothetically) reach Alpha Centauri within about 20 years of its launch.
There are a lot of appealing things about this project. For example, the use of lightsails is currently in the process of being tested by another organization, the Planetary Society, with a publicly funded project called LightSail.
But the most appealing thing is that the Breakthrough Starshot project is truly innovative, yet still grounded in current, cutting-edge science and technology. Just realize that all existing spacecraft are huge and clunky in contrast to the gram-scale nanostarships – dubbed StarChips – being proposed by Breakthrough Starshot. Can tiny, light ships – on sails pushed by a light beam – fly 1,000 times faster than the fastest spacecraft built up to now? That’s what Breakthrough Starshot is exploring with its ongoing proof-of-concept studies.
Starshot envisions launching a mothership carrying the 1,000 tiny spacecraft to a high-altitude orbit. Each craft is a gram-scale wafer, carrying cameras, photon thrusters, power supply, navigation and communication equipment, and “constituting a fully functional space probe,” the Starshot team has said.
Mission controllers would deploy the nanocraft – send them on their way – one by one. A ground-based laser array called a light beamer would be used to focus light on the sails of the ships, to accelerate individual craft to the target speed “within minutes.”
The plan is to stick four cameras (two-megapixels each) on the nanocraft, allowing for some elementary imaging. The data would be transmitted back to Earth using a retractable meter-long antenna, or perhaps even using the lightsail to facilitate laser-based communications that could focus a signal back towards Earth.
The original idea was to send the spacecraft flying through the Alpha Centauri system without slowing down. After all, how can they slow down? It turns out someone has already figured out a possible way. In early 2017 two scientists announced the results of their study of a possible braking method, using the radiation and gravity of the Alpha Centauri stars themselves. We don’t know yet if such a thing can work, but it’s heartening to see scientists getting involved in this idea!
Clearly, the Breakthrough Starshot project is one that’s worth watching.
On April 20 and 21, 2017, Breakthrough Initiatives held the second of what it says will be an annual conference – called Breakthrough Discuss – aimed at bringing together leading astronomers, engineers, astrobiologists and astrophysicists. This year, they held the conference at Stanford University and focused it on discoveries of potentially habitable planets in nearby star systems, including Alpha Centauri. Videos related to discussions at the conference are archived on Breakthrough’s Facebook page, if you’re interested.
Bottom line: At 4.3 light-years away, the Alpha Centauri system is the nearest star system to our Earth and sun, but getting there would be extremely difficult.

MYSTERY OF THE 'BALTIC SEA ANOMALY' FINALLY SOLVED?
MYSTERY OF THE 'BALTIC SEA ANOMALY' FINALLY SOLVED?
One mystery that has been troubling scientists for a while is the so called 'Baltic Sea Anomaly'. According to the a swedish deep sea exploration team called Ocean X, they came across a strange and gigantic structure that didn't appear like a natural formation.
Many conspiracy theories regarding this anomaly range from a giant crashed mothership UFO to a sunken city in the same vein as Atlantis or perhaps the very same.
However, recently a group of divers collected samples from the so called anomaly for further reasearch.
Scientists determined that the baltic sea anomaly is but a glacial deposit. Much of the Baltic Sea was carved out by moving glaciers during the Ice Age. So these strange rock formations are leftovers from that time.
But OceanX team disagree. They say that this doesn't prove why electronics ceased functioning when at close distance from the object.
So has the anomaly enigma been solved?
Or is this all a cover up? Watch the following video to know more

THE TRUE AGE OF THE GREAT PYRAMIDS IS SERIOUSLY DISTURBING
The evidence at Giza just keeps stacking up. The dynastic Egyptian most likely didn't build the pyramids and they most definitely did not build the sphinx which has suffered severe water erosion.
The water erosion evident is estimated by experienced geologists to have taken several thousands of years of rain, thereby placing the sphinx somewhere in the last tropical age of Egypt, or possibly further back than that. The sphinx is insanely ancient and that can be proven.

Giant Beam of Light appears to shoot from Triangular Shaped Space Object
Photographer in Florida took some pictures of the sky at 10pm using the settings 200 ISO, 2.5 sec exposure, and 1.8F fixed lens on October 6, 2017.The power was out due to Hurricane Irma.
Two days later when the power came on he loaded up the pictures. He noticed a beam of light in the corner of one of the pictures. He zoomed in and then to his surprise he noticed a triangular shaped object in front of the beam.
The photographer states: “I am no UFO hunter or enthusiast, but I am curious of what it is. I would guess advanced military craft. I have showed the picture to people I run into and no-one has a clue what it could be. I did not see this with my naked eye. So, maybe the camera is the witness.” Mufon case file 87164.
Scientists Concluded That the Soul Does NOT Die – It Goes Back to the Universe!
Scientists Concluded That the Soul Does NOT Die – It Goes Back to the Universe!
Perhaps the human consciousness is like a program that is run by a quantum computer found in the brain as well as the human brain is similar to a “biological computer.” That’s not all, after a person dies, their soul may come back to the universe, and it may not die.
Dr. Stuart Hameroff, an American physicist, and Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematical physicist, claim that the soul is maintained in brain cells’ micro-tubules. Both researchers refer to this process as “Orch-OR” or “Orchestrated Objective Reduction.” Apparently, when humans are “clinically dead,” the microtubules in their brain start losing their quantum state. However, these microtubules can still retain the information inside of them.
In addition, this theory has recently been outlined on Through the Wormhole, the Science Channel’s ongoing documentary show. In this documentary show, Dr. Hameroff explains that in case the blood stops flowing and the heart stops beating; then the micro-tubules could lose their quantum state. It is important to understand that the quantum information in the micro-tubules cannot be destroyed, and it dissipates and distributes to the universe at large.
In case the patient is resuscitated, revived, then this quantum information could go back into the micro-tubules and they say that they had a near-death experience. However, in case the patient isn’t revived, and they die, then this quantum information may exist indefinitely outside the body, as a soul.
According to Dr. Hameroff, the human soul is much more than mere neuron “interaction” in the brain. What’s more, this theory also suggests that these “souls” may have existed since the beginning of time itself. Plus, with all of the recent findings pertaining to dark matter and dark energy, i.e., substances that human beings are not able to interact with or see, but substances that we know exist, this theory may end up explaining things, which are even more fascinating and mysterious.
Scientists Say: 'Our Souls Do Not Die – They Go Back to the Universe'
NOT AN ALIEN MEGASTRUCTURE, A CLOUD OF DUST ON A 700-DAY ORBIT
This illustration depicts a hypothetical uneven ring of dust orbiting KIC 8462852, also known as Boyajian's Star or Tabby's Star. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
The mystery of KIC 8462852 (aka. Boyajian’s Star or Tabby’s Star) continues to excite and intrigue! Ever since it was first seen to be undergoing strange and sudden dips in brightness (back in October of 2015) astronomers have been speculating as to what could be causing this. Since that time, various explanations have been offered, including large asteroids, a large planet, a debris disc or even an alien megastructure.
Many studies have been produced that have sought to assign some other natural explanation to the star’s behavior. The latest comes from an international team of scientists – which included Tabetha Boyajian, the lead author on the original 2016 paper. According to this latest study, which was recently published in The Astrophysical Journal, the star’s long-term dimming patterns are likely the result of an uneven dust cloud moving around the star.
The study, titled “Extinction and the Dimming of KIC 8462852“, was led by Huan Y. A. Meng of the Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona. The team also included members from the Astrolab IRIS in Belgium, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHUAPL), the University of Cambridge, Iowa State University, Pennsylvania State University, Louisiana State University, and the University of Leuven, Belgium.

For the sake of their study, the team consulted data that was obtained by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope and the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst mission between January and December of 2016. Whereas Spitzer conducted observations in the infrared band, Swift gathered data in the ultraviolet band. This was then compared to visible light gathered during the same period by AstroLAB IRIS’s 68-cm (27-inch) reflecting telescope.
What they found was that KIC 8462852 experienced less dimming in the infrared band than in the ultraviolet. This, they concluded, was a strong indication that material transiting in front of the star was likely no larger than a few micrometers (about one ten-thousands of an inch) in diameter, since anything larger would cause the light to dim equally across all wavelengths.
This finding contradicts many theories that have been ventured since the mysterious dimming of Tabby’s Star was first noticed. As Dr. Meng indicated in a recent NASA press statement:
“This pretty much rules out the alien megastructure theory, as that could not explain the wavelength-dependent dimming. We suspect, instead, there is a cloud of dust orbiting the star with a roughly 700-day orbital period.”

Based on the strong dip in the ultraviolet band, the research team also concluded that the particles must be larger than interstellar dust. Otherwise, the pressure caused by KIC 8462852’s solar wind would drive these particles out into space over time. A circumstellar disk of dust particles would not only be able to remain in orbit, it would also explain the uneven changes in the star’s brightness.
So far, this is the best explanation for the mysterious long-term behavior of Tabby’s Star. As with previous observations, much of the credit for this latest study goes to amateur astronomers who assisted in the observations. It was participants in the Planet Hunters project, which provides open to access Kepler mission data, that first noticed that light coming from KIC 8462852 was experiencing strange dips.
In addition, it was the work of amateur astronomers – who provided the necessary technical and software support to AstroLAB – allowed for this study to take place. After the Astrolab group posted the data they had obtained on Tabby’s star in a public astronomy archive, George Rieke (one of the co-authors on this latest study) contacted them and proposed combining their results.
The AstroLAB group consists of Franky Dubois, who operated the telescope during the Tabby’s Star observations, Ludwig Logie, who helps with technical issues on the telescope, and Steve Rau, who processes observations of star brightness, is a trainer at a Belgian railway company. Together, they began monitoring Tabby’s Star after they read Dr. Boyajian 2016 study.
Ever since it was first announced in 2015, there has been speculation as to what could account for the dimming of KIC 8462852.

Naturally, more observations and research is needed to confirm this latest study. While it does fit the long-term observations, there is still the matter of shorter-term dimming events. These include the three-day spurts that were noticed in 2017, as well as the major 20-percent dips that were observed during Kepler’s primary mission. The theory that these could have been the result of a swarm of comets is also still a possible explanation.
This theory, which was based on data collected by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission, could explain both the short period dips and the longer-term dips. Whereas the comets passing in front of the star could explain the former, dust produced by the sublimation of material from the comets as they draw nearer the star (or through collisions) could explain the latter. As Vanaverbeke said:
“Tabby’s Star could have something like a solar activity cycle. This is something that needs further investigation and will continue to interest scientists for many years to come.”
So for those hoping that Tabby’s Star was the first indication of an alien megastructure, there’s still hope (albeit a faint one)! As Professor Loeb of the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) told Universe Today recently (with regards to a new study he co-authored), there’s always the possibility that dimming patterns are due to massive structures – like a magnetic shield – passing in front of a host star:
“The imprint of a shield built by another civilization could involve the changes it induces in the brightness of the host star due to occultation (similar behavior to Tabby’s star) if the structure is big enough,” he said. “The situation could be similar to Dyson’s spheres, but instead of harvesting the energy of the star the purpose of the infrastructure is to protect a technological civilization on a planet from the flares of its host star.”
While the Kepler mission is no longer in a position to observe Tabby’s Star (now that it is conducting its K2 mission), next-generation telescopes are expected to pick up where it left off. These include NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST), and ground-based observatories like the Extremely Large Telescope (VLT) array.
Steven Spielberg believes "we're not alone in the universe" and used to look for UFOs
Steven Spielberg followed his first major box-office success Jaws with this epic science fiction adventure about a disparate group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence.
And it seems like the director behind E.T. The Extra Terrestrial and War of the Worlds was hoping to contact alien life himself while making the much loved Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
The movie celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, and in a new featurette from the special edition 4K Blu-ray box set, Spielberg reveals he believes we’re not alone in the universe.
The 70-year-old Hollywood veteran says initially he wasn’t trying to make a sci-fi film when he wrote the script and directed the award winning film.
The premise of the movie revolves around a line worker who feels undeniably drawn to an isolated area in the wilderness after he encounters a UFO
Spielberg jokes that he tried to do the same thing.
“If I thought of it as a science fiction film, I wouldn’t have taken so many drives out to Californian deserts hoping to find and actually having a UFO sighting, which I by the way I’ve never had a UFO sighting.
“The one person who deserves to have a UFO sighting, it hasn’t happened yet for me.”
Spielberg’s belief in aliens isn’t all that surprising given his history of space-based movies after Close Encounters of a Third Kind but it is clear it’s what helped him created this highly revered film forty years ago.
He continues: “I really believed that there was something up there. I still believe we’re not alone in the universe.
“So I was kind of in those days, thinking 'well there might be something to this.'”
The Close Encounters of the Third Kind 40th Anniversary 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray editions are out on October 9th.
UFO spotted hovering over the Yellowstone Supervolcano [VIDEO]
UFO spotted hovering over the Yellowstone Supervolcano [VIDEO]
Yellowstone National Park, where this volcano is situated, is an area of great interest for UFO hunters and alien enthusiasts as the region is popular for UFO sightings.
Yellowstone Supervolcano - Wyoming, United StatesFacebook/ Around the World
A new video of UFO sighting has been doing rounds on YouTube which shows a UFO hovering over the Yellowstone Supervolcano, located in the US, which is considered as one of the biggest natural threat to the human civilisation.
The alien craft spotted can be seen passing by across the left of the screen and it appears to be metallic and reflective. Yellowstone National Park, where this volcano is situated, is an area of great interest for UFOlogists, UFO hunters and alien enthusiasts as the region is popular for UFO sightings.
As per media reports, this footage was captured on 9 June but was uploaded on the internet recently and it was titled "Impressive UFO near the Yellowstone Volcano".
In another incident that took place in late 2016, an unknown tiny craft was seen flying by the Supervolcano. A video of this occurance was soon uploaded on the internet by a used named Jeanetta Foresta, which she named "Things R flying all over - overnight" which went viral.
Facebook/UFOSFacts
"There were more than four at the beginning and this is overnight so there is no sun to reflect off of a plane," Foresta posted, as quoted by Express
"There were more than four at the beginning and this is overnight so there is no sun to reflect off of a plane," Foresta added.
Popular controversy theorist and UFO blogger Scott C Waring too shared his views regarding this sighting on the website ufosightingsdaily.com and stated that various glowing orbs are found moving over the Yellowstone, which can attract both alien as well as human tourists.
"Why wouldn't aliens be interested in the Earth's natural wonders?
"The movement is proof its not Venus or a hot air balloon. If you knew the truth about the abundance of alien ships, craft and species around us every day, it would blow your mind," Waring stated.

More about the Yellowstone Supervolcano:
The Yellowstone Supervolcano is an ancient active volcano which is known for its stunning features like 10,000 hot springs, terraces, mud pots and geysers including the cone geyser named Old Faithful.
The volcano is known to erupt in every 600,000 years and it last erupted 600,000 years back. This became a cause of concern for NASA as it is can wipe out the human civilisation.
NASA researchers even thought of taking steps to save people from this disastrous situation as this supervolcano is considered more threatening than an asteroid collision.
Brian Wilcox of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) at the California Institute of Technology said: "The most important thing with this is to do no harm,", was quoted as saying by BBC.
"If you drill into the top of the magma chamber and try and cool it from there, this would be very risky. This could make the cap over the magma chamber more brittle and prone to fracture. And you might trigger the release of harmful volatile gases in the magma at the top of the chamber which would otherwise not be released," Wilcox concluded.
A Wyoming man accused of public intoxication allegedly told police he traveled from the year 2048 to warn mankind of an impending invasion by extraterrestrials.
Bryant Johnson issued his grave warning to Casper police Monday night after officers were called about the man and his out-of-this-world message, according to an arrest report obtained by HuffPost.
Johnson, who police said smelled of alcohol and spoke with slightly slurred speech, allegedly told officers that “the aliens were coming next year and we needed to make sure to leave as fast as possible.”
According to the report, he didn’t specify an exact date or time for the aliens’ arrival.
He refused to speak with nurses or doctors and instead insisted on meeting with “the president” of the town, police said.
Johnson informed the officers that he was able to travel through time because the aliens filled his body with alcohol. He also claimed he stood on a “giant pad” which then transported him to the year 2017 — though he said he was supposed to be sent to the year 2018.
Johnson, who was allegedly found with a blood alcohol content of .136, was eventually transported to the Natrona County Detention Center without further incident.
Of course, the joke could be on us when all this turns out to be true.
In a tweet to the official Twitter account of the television show Rick and Morty, Elon Musk suggested that the singularity has already occurred in other levels of the simulation, combining two frequently debated philosophical theories into one.
WUBBA LUBBA DUB DUB
Elon Musk brought together two of the internet’s favorite futuristic topics on Twitter earlier today. In a thread on the official Twitter account of the television show Rick and Morty, Musk discussed the singularity as well as his theory that we are currently living in a simulation and not actual reality.
The singularity for this level of the simulation is coming soon. I wonder what the levels above us look like.
Good chance they are less interesting and deeper levels are better. So far, even our primitive sims are often more entertaining than reality itself.
The singularity refers to a theoretical point in time when artificial intelligence (AI) surpasses human intelligence. Musk’s vision of what that might mean for humanity is a source of considerable debate in the science and tech community.
The simulation theory to which Musk subscribes posits that we are living in a computer simulation created by an extraterrestrial or ancient advanced culture and not “reality” as we think of it. This, too, is a controversial topic, and just recently, a team of theoretical physicists from Oxford University shared evidence against the theory — according to their research, the known universe doesn’t contain enough atoms to facilitate such a simulation.
SIMULATION UNCERTAINTY
These two controversial concepts aren’t often discussed at the same time, but they certainly fit in with the subject matter of the television show, which features an infinite number of universes of infinite possibility, as well as Musk’s own pursuits, which include a startup created for the purpose of preventing an AI uprising.
Musk is diving down a rabbit hole full of head-exploding possibilities by suggesting that the singularity has already occurred in other simulations and that our “reality” is merely one of many simulations as opposed to the only one.
This theory is more philosophical than scientific — whether our world is natural or programmed, we are still subject to the laws that govern it. Either way, perhaps we can just be glad that we’re (probably) not being used as human batteries.
WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS ‘ALIEN ABDUCTEE’ TRAVIS WALTON SLAMS SCEPTICS – CLAIMING 16 LIE DETECTOR TESTS PROVE HIS STORY IS TRUE
WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS ‘ALIEN ABDUCTEE’ TRAVIS WALTON SLAMS SCEPTICS – CLAIMING 16 LIE DETECTOR TESTS PROVE HIS STORY IS TRUE
THE man involved in one of the most infamous alien abduction cases of all time has hit out at skeptics and non-believers – saying 16 separate lie detector tests – taken by himself and witnesses to the unexplained 1975 incident – prove his story is TRUE.
Travis Walton, disappeared without a trace after he and the crew of loggers he worked with claimed to have seen a huge UFO in the forest they were working in.
Travis believes he was taken aboard an alien spacecraft for five days Originally crew members were suspected of murder but Travis reappeared five days later saying he had been taken into a space craft by alien creatures.
The dad-of-four says he has spent the past 40 year defending himself against those trying to discredit him – and has even written a book debunking every alternate theory to what happened to him.
The 64-year-old, who says the incident is still “fresh in his mind’, told the Sun Online it was important to share his story because the public have a right to “know what’s out there”.
Travis, a logger in the mountains of Arizona, was leaving work on November 5, 1975, with five crew members in a truck when the alleged incident took place.
They saw some glimmers of light through the trees – and pulled up, thinking it was a fire.
“When we pulled up into the light where we had straight view – it was unmistakable I yelled stop and one of the guys in the back said it’s a spaceship or a flying saucer it was less than 100 feet away,” Travis said.
An artist’s impression of the UFO Travis and his crew members saw
Travis was a logger in Arizona when the bizarre incident took place “It was a clearly defined metallic disc outlined against the sky and fantastic in the grandeur of it.
“All the guys in the crew – as frightening as it was – also describe it as being beautiful it was so perfect.
“I got out as soon as Mike who was driving stopped and I left the door open and went towards it.
“It was just an impulse I thought it would be gone by the time I got close. It was immediately alarming to the other guys and the closer I got they were yelling at me to get back in the truck.
“Later they said it looked like I was in a trance but looking at them it seemed like they were in a trance too.”
The incident took place in the Sitgreaves National Forest near Snowflake, Arizona
The spaceship began to make loud noises and move so Travis dived for cover behind a log.
He then tried to stand up and run away but was hit by a strong “force” and was thrown into the air.
“When it hit me it was a stunning force. I did not see this blast of energy but the men in the crew gave a statement to the sheriff’s department and said it looked like a long blue flame – others compared it to stepping on a landmine or grenade because it threw me through the air.
“They were immediately certain it killed me.”
Crew members described Travis being knocked to the ground by a blue light or laser beam. Fearing for their lives – and thinking Travis was dead – the rest of the crew fled to get help.
A huge search party involving the sheriff department, helicopters, ATVs and men on horseback – could not find any trace of Travis.
Meanwhile Travis’s account of what he remembers next is even more bizarre.
The ‘aliens’ were described as having big eyes and huge heads.
He says he awoke from consciousness on a spaceship surrounded by small creatures he believes were aliens.
“It was very blurry and I had some double vision but I could see the outline of these forms around me I thought they were doctors but when my vision got clearer and I could see these were not doctors – I just flipped out,” he said.
“The one that was closest to me – I tried to hit it away – but I felt like I could hardly move my arm.
Travis said the aliens’ stares gave him nightmares.
“It was more of a push than a hit because I was so weakened but the creature felt soft and lighter than I expected. It fell back into one that was standing near it.
“I backed away and bumped up against a shelf and looked around and saw an array of tools or instruments and I very quickly just grabbed one and started flailing at them.
“They stopped and stood there staring at me and that stare was in my nightmares for many years after that. I couldn’t tolerate that stare.”
Travis says he managed to escape through a door and into a narrow passageway then into another room with control panel in it.
A human being dressed in what looked like a space helmet then appeared and took him to a separate room where he was put on a table and given a mask which rendered him unconscious.
Crew members all passed lie detector tests confirming what they saw.
The next thing he knew he was waking up on the road about 15 miles from where he disappeared just outside the nearest town of Snowflake, Arizona.
Travis, who had no idea he had been gone for five days, managed to walk into town where everyone who saw him described him as looking “devastated” and “shell shocked”.
But then the battle to get people to believe his story began – and Travis was thrust into the world’s spotlight.
Travis’s wrote a book about his experiences called Fire In The Sky which was later turned into a movie of the same name.
Travis says he’s faced a battle to be believed for the past 40 years.
Travis said: “From the beginning it was a battle against people trying to explain it away – the locals didn’t want to believe it, the sheriff didn’t want to believe it – you know he thought it was a murder then a drug hallucination.
“I had a whole battery of psychiatric tests and there was nothing wrong in that department, drug tests proved there was nothing in my system.”
And over 40 years later Travis stands by his story – and has taken five separate lie detector tests to prove it is true – while witnesses and crew members have taken a total of 11 polygraph tests.
Travis believes he is not the only one who has been taken by aliens.
Experts believe there is a million to one chance of there being any mistakes in this number of passed tests.
Speaking at the Devil’s Tower UFO rendezvous in Hulett, Wyoming, Travis said: “I decided to break my silence. I started refuted these things that people have been saying about me and my story.
“I took each and every theory the sceptics came up with and just blew them out of the water with facts.
“I am certain I’m not the only one who has been taken – this is absolutely real and it’s important that the general public come to a gradual understanding of that.
“I’m not trying to shock or amaze or frighten anyone – on the contrary – in relating how frightened I was I don’t want anyone to share that fear.
Travis shared his story at the Devil’s Tower UFO Rendezvous.
“I think it’s important for them to realize what happened with me 45 years ago – it was not even an abduction.
“I entertained that term for a while because that’s what other people called it but now I’d say it was more of an ambulance call – that I was injured in a way that would have been fatal and the aliens had the technology available to help me.”

ALIEN ABDUCTEES — IN THEIR OWN WORDS
ALIEN ABDUCTEES — IN THEIR OWN WORDS
CYNTHIA (ABOVE)
When I was in my thirties, I found out from my father about a government experiment that I was part of in which they were using other alien DNA to create me. I also have been on the ships most of my life off and on. I’ve had lots of contacts. … I was being taken. I’ve been taken on ships quite a bit. I’ve met Salamander beings and I’ve met Greys. I’ve also met the Blue Arcturians which are incredible. They all have their own personalities and their own purposes. … I’ve also met the Cat People that are from Sirius. I’ve actually seen people that can shape shift from human looking to Reptilians. As far as the abductions, I’ve had numerous of them where they’ve shown me around various ships. … They’ve also explained … why they’re here and how they’re here to help humanity.
STEPHEN
I was on a mother ship. I was walking along a gantry and I was looking down to my left and my right and a little Grey had my hand and I could see different types of spacecraft all below. I could see different human looking people and aliens coming and going on these crafts. The Grey brought me into a little room, the door slid open and he just told me in my mind, “Sit here and wait, I’ll be back.” … Then he brought me to another bigger room. It was an auditorium with stadium seating. There was a podium down at the bottom and he led me to a seat and all around me were some humans … but there was a lot of all different types of alien beings. Next thing I’m leaving. I’m telling them, “I want to stay … I belong.” And they said, “No, it’s not your time. You have to help save this planet Earth.” That’s all I remember.
JILL
These beings call themselves pure light beings and they were a collective of beings that were here to assist humanity. And they came through with this message … about shifting conscious for humankind at this time. They would be doing things to my aura or to my energy and I could feel them. I could see visual images of them activating something in my conscious. … They’re helping us in our evolutionary process and all of these events that are happening, that people are experiencing such as abductions are to help us evolve as a species. Our actual DNA is being shifted so our physical bodies are actually becoming lighter in frequency and they’re helping us to do this.
SASHA
I was lying breathing deep and fast to the powerful evocative music and there I was. My consciousness was in the middle of this huge dome like structure. The inside of the structure was white and then there were coves in it that were big enough for people to sit in meditation and they were sitting cross legged. Some of them wore white robes. Some of them had long hair. They were all humanoid. There were some I couldn’t quite tell what they were. But I got the feeling they were a type of human. Some of them were huge. Some of them were small and they were all in their coves and it was all part of this huge dome and the atmosphere in this place was absolutely beautiful. It was golden light and the background was white, like it was whitewashed and it was a place of meditating on peace and love.
NANCY
In the summer of 1961 when I was twelve years old, I was at my girlfriends house and we were playing and her father yelled for us to come outside, he wanted us to see something. When we walked outside we immediately saw a giant silver craft. It was silently hovering above a tree. It had red, green and white lights that I thought at the time were rotating but I realize they were pulsating. Someone called the police. … And then there was a car coming down the road. There was a tree here and a craft here and a car coming down the road and as it got right underneath the craft, a beam of light came out of the bottom and it went right to the roof of the car and as soon as it touched the car the car was totally immobilized. I just remember screaming and being excited and jumping up and down. … And at the end of the first regression I remember seeing that my body was rumbling, was a word I never used. My body was rumbling and waving to the low hum of the craft and that was the end of the first regression. In the second regression, I actually remember being aboard and a procedure that was performed on me.
JOHN
These beings came into my room. We walked through the wall out into the woods and there were two deer in suspended animation and then this, as I learned these were Zetas, I didn’t know what they were called at the time brought me over to this tree. We sat down, he was drawing in the dirt; the earth and the moon and then all these lines way over to the far end of the patch of dirt and that told me that was where they were from. … And the next thing I know I see myself on a ship and the stain glass window started off being what looked like a window out into space and it was looking at the earth and the moon but then it turned to the stain glass window and every time the colors changed I got zapped with energy.
JANET
December 1995 I landed on Johnson atoll which is an island eight hundred miles southwest in the pacific ocean and I was a civilian working for the military and when I landed there a man came over and said, “You’ve landed on a joint US military ET base.” And I said, “Oh really?” So a year later in 1996 I was sleeping in my bed and suddenly I’m being carried by six of the traditional ET’s with the large heads and large eyes. There are there military on either side walking and I’m screaming bloody murder. … And the Grey on the right hand side the one that was carrying my foot said, “Go ahead and scream all you want.You’re in an energy field and no one could hear you.”
BRUCE
These doors open. This ramp goes down and I follow this guy out, down this ramp. I was standing on dirt and I was wondering where I was at. And right in the sky to my left was a huge moon like body and in the immediate background was Saturn. And I could see hundreds and hundreds of rings. And I said, “Where am I?” and he said, “You’re on one of the moons of Saturn.” I said, “Why did you bring me here?” And he said, “Because these two moons are going opposite directions. They get to a certain point and they revolve around each other and go back the opposite direction. I just wanted you to see that.” Well the thing is after he showed it to me, they took me back in, he knocked me out and when I woke up the next morning I was in my bed.
RITA
I have had experiences since I was a child. I had a series of dreams which was sort of unusual for a seven or eight year old child, which in my forties began to unravel into experiences with Reptilians and that eventually culminated with showing them my child. … He’s Reptilian. You know. He’s not human. He’s sort of golden. Reptilian kind of head. Sort of mottled skin. Kind of of more claw like hands and feet. A Reptilian. Not human like me. … I’ve had a lot of experiences with Reptilians. Some of them not very nice. But the ones from my childhood were all pretty ok. They never hurt me or did anything to frighten me or anything like that until much later.
SEBASTIEN
All my life I’ve had visions which I could never control. I was originally abducted when I was sixteen years old. I was lifted up in the air. There was no gravity. I was lifted straight up and eventually I basically turned this way on my back and getting into a spaceship. It was a small spaceship, round. It was basically like a vertical opening. Rectangular shape. I didn’t see any doors and as I was basically brought into the spacecraft, I saw about seven tall Grey aliens with small mouths and big eyes, black. I was in that position and I wasn’t really feeling any fear. I wasn’t scared.

'SUPERBOLIDE' EXPLODES OVER CHINA WITH EQUIVALENT OF 540 TONS OF TNT
'SUPERBOLIDE' EXPLODES OVER CHINA WITH EQUIVALENT OF 540 TONS OF TNT
Exploding shooting star has onlookers fearing the worst.
As millions of Chinese celebrated their mid-autumn national holiday gazing heavenward towards the full moon that lit up the night sky, their awe and wonderment turned to fear and amazement as a huge fireball exploded with a deafening bang and a blaze of light which, for a few seconds turned the dark night sky into dazzling bright daylight.
The many people who witnessed it were frozen in fear of it being caused by a wayward missile test from North Korea but these fears were quickly allayed as it became clear that the stunning display of pyrotechnics was in fact caused by an exploding meteor over Shangri-La County in south-west China at around 8 pm on the 4th of October.
This rare astrological event dubbed a ‘superbolide’ happened when a meteor exploded into a bright fireball as it entered the Earth’s atmosphere at an altitude of 37 km (23miles) and traveled at an immense speed of 14.6 km per second (9 miles per second). NASA reported on their Chinese social media page that the superbolide had exploded with the equivalent force of 540 tonnes of TNT.
From Wikipedia, a bolide (from the French word for missile) is an extremely bright meteor that explodes in the atmosphere and has an apparent magnitude of −14 or brighter whereas a superbolide is a bolide which reaches an apparent magnitude of −17 or brighter.
Due to the number of witnesses, Chinese social media was rife with pictures and videos immediately following the event with many also questioning its bizarre coincidental timing and of its brightness even surpassing the brightest full moon of the year on the annual mid-autumn holiday.
In the aftermath of the explosion, which was loud enough to shake windows of the houses below, millions of fragments were seen falling to earth, and Chinese officials and members of the public who had witnessed this rare event rushed to find a memento of this once in a lifetime mid-autumn festival event. Many traditions and myths have grown up over the years around the ‘Moon Cake’ festival which is the second most important in the Chinese calendar and celebrates the moon at its brightest as families come together to give thanks for the harvest and pray for the future and no doubt, this incredible superbolide will too enter the Chinese psyche and its story be told for many years to come.
FBI DOCUMENT REVEALED: A MULTIDEMSIONAL ALIEN RACE VISITS EARTH SINCE 1947
FBI DOCUMENT REVEALED: A MULTIDEMSIONAL ALIEN RACE VISITS EARTH SINCE 1947
A few years ago an FBI document revealed the existence of extraterrestrial (multidimensional) creatures. With this document declassified the FBI indirectly wanted to alert us to the presence of aliens who could manifest with their spaceships, opening the distance between the dimensions.
1. One part of the vessel sighted contained passengers inside, while another part was under remote control (remote control).
2. The mission is peaceful, visitors are planning to stay on the planet.
3. The type of race in question, the "visitors", has enormous dimensions, but human facets.
4. They are not earthly and come from your world.
5. They come from an "Etheric World" that we do not know, so they do not come from any other known planet.
6. The bodies of visitors and their ships materialize through vibrations with the dense matter of the Earth.
7. Your ships have beams of energy that can disintegrate any aircraft and can suddenly disappear from our vision without a trace.
8. The region from which they come is the astral plane corresponding to Loka or Talas. The esoteric will understand these words. In fact, the Loka-Talas, which are not physical or metaphysical places, are different levels of consciousness. Each plane of consciousness different from ours is a parallel dimensional plane.
9. Visitors use a radar system that allows you to capture the opening location to move from one dimension to another.
The priorities of NASA when looking into the future of space exploration are subject to change. The Bush administration in 2004 announced the Vision for Space Exploration, and this asked for rockets to return astronauts to the moon.
This was then taken over by the NASA Authorization Act of 2010, and this gave outlines of plans to send human beings to an asteroid in 2025 and by 2030 to Mars.
PLANS LAID OUT BY ADMINISTRATION FOR GOING BACK TO MOON SAYS, VP MIKE PENCE
VP PENCE SAYS PRIORITIES HAVE CHANGED
Now the Vice President Mike Pence along with many members of the Trump administration has revealed priorities have changed again and instead of a journey to Mars, the administration has now set their sights on taking crewed missions to the Moon once again along with setting up a permanent presence on the surface of the Moon.
This announcement came at the inaugural meeting of National Space Council. This is s group that is newly-established that is going to guide the US policy over the years to come. It had been established originally in 1989 by George H.W. Bush, but then in 1993, it was disbanded by Clinton. The council is going to be serving the same purpose as that of the National Aeronautics and Space Council.
The meeting was held at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Virginia, and Mike Pence chaired it with help from Robert Lightfoot, the NASA Administrator. It was also attended by Donald Trump’s administration cabinet members, aerospace industry leaders and senior officials.
PENCE WANTS TO RESTORE NASA AS LEADERS IN SPACE
Throughout the meeting, Mike Pence laid out plans of the administrator for taking astronauts back to the Moon. He emphasized the need to be able to restore NASA and the leadership of the US in space. Pence made a comparison to the early years of the Space Race and today and the achievement of the Apollo 11 mission.
A statement said that it was fitting that the week had been chosen for holding the first of the National Space Council meetings as it was the 60th anniversary of Sputnik. It was on that day that the race for space started, six decades ago. While the Soviets took the lead, the US claimed their place and one giant leap for mankind led America into space.
RE-ESTABLISHMENT OF NATIONAL SPACE COUNCIL ENDS STALLED SPACE EXPLORATION
Pence had indicated that by re-establishing the National Space Council he would put an end to how space exploration had stalled over the recent decades and said how returning to the Moon is one goal that diminished in the post-Apollo era but which would be recaptured and go on to reinvigorate modern day space exploration.
Pence said that a new interest in missions to the Moon would end the decades that not one single astronaut from NASA had gone beyond Low Earth orbit. He also gave an indication how following the retirement of the Space Shuttle Program the United States became dependent on Russia to take astronauts to the International Space Station.
REVELATION ENDS MONTHS OF SPECULATION ABOUT SPACE POLICY OF TRUMP
The new policy does seem to break from the policy brought in by the Obama administration, and it goes back to the one from the Bush administration. Pence said that by returning astronauts to the moon, they would be taking a much-needed step towards eventually sending a crewed mission to Mars. The revelation also ended many months of ambiguity about the space policy of Donald Trump. Pence has, in the past, talked about the need for men to return to the Moon but nothing came from it. NASA has always been somewhat unsure about the future budget. The meeting didn’t indicate as to the fact that the Trump administration does have a policy but a lot of aspects had been in place before the administration took over.
When the meeting had come to an end, the administrator of NASA Robert Lightfoot opened up about the results in a press statement from NASA. It was said that NASA was directed to come up with a plan for a sustainable and innovative program of exploration with both international and commercial partners that would allow humans to expand the solar system and ensure the return of humans to the Moon both for utilization and long-term exploration.
$19.5 billion in the fund has been allocated to NASA for guaranteeing stability over the short-term in the fiscal year 2017. Lightfoot said that the meeting to send men back to the Moon had helped in assisting the efforts of NASA to send manned crews to Mars.

Advanced ancient technology beneath Egypt: 100-ton stone boxes baffle researchers
Advanced ancient technology beneath Egypt: 100-ton stone boxes baffle researchers
Ultimate evidence a lost ancient technology created before the time of the Dynastic Egyptians. Inside a tunnel system carved out of the solid limestone bedrock in the desert of Egypt, more than 20 granite boxes made of precision shaped Aswan granite are a true enigma. Said by some to have been the burial places of prized bulls, their real function is far more intriguing.B. Foerster.
Ever since people turned towards the study of the ancient Egyptian culture and their achievements through thousands of years, we have been left amazed by everything that ancient cultures were able to achieve thousands of years ago.
A massive amount of evidence is piling up supporting the idea that our ancestors had in their possession, thousands of years ago a technology that we can only dream about today.
This technology allowed ancient cultures like the ancient Egyptians to cut, transport, stack and place blocks of stones weighing up to ONE HUNDRED TONS.
Mainstream scholars tell us this was achieved by sticks and stones. However, places like the Serapeum of Saqqara tell a DIFFERENT story.
Ever since its discovery in 1850, the Serapeum of Saqqara has been a mind-boggling location filled with mystery.
This majestic ancient labyrinth is home to 25 megalithic stone ‘boxes,’ weighing between 70 to 100 tons. The existence of these massive blocks of stone is the ultimate proof that the builders of these incredible ‘boxes’ possessed incredible knowledge in fields such as geometry and mathematics, and had the necessary technology to shape, cut, transport and place into position massive blocks of stone.
Some believe the massive boxes were used as burial chambers, other’s like author and explorer Brien Foerster suggest the truth behind the Serapeum is beyond fascinating and has nothing to do with alleged burial chambers for bulls.
We know that the boxes were not: they were not burial places of bulls.
It is noteworthy to mention that when the Serapeum of Saqqara was discovered, some of the massive boxes were blown open with gunpowder, only to find the inside of these giant boxes empty.
Researchers have no idea what their actual purpose is now how these giant boxes were assembled thousands of years ago.
Interestingly, most of these boxes are made of rose granite, an extremely hard rock mined at a quarry located about 800 kilometers from Saqqara while other boxes were made from an even stronger material, diorite, found even further away from Saqqara.
This makes you wonder; what kind of technology was used in the distant past to precisely cut, shape, transport, and place into position massive blocks of stones that weigh up to ONE HUNDRED TONS?
Is it possible that the knowledge and technology did in fact originate from the stars as many ancient astronaut theorists suggest? Or are we missing something in history, an incredibly important moment in ancient history overlooked by mainstream scholars, a moment that could explain the knowledge and ability of ancient civilizations such as the Egyptian?
“Inside a tunnel system carved out of the solid limestone bedrock in the desert of Egypt, more than 20 granite boxes made of precision shaped Aswan granite are a true enigma. Said by some to have been the burial places of prized bulls, their real function is far more intriguing. And they are clear examples of Lost Ancient High Technology created before the time of the Dynastic Egyptians.”
To understand this, we have to look back in history to a period called Pre-Pharaonic Egypt.
In Ancient Egypt, long before the first ‘mortal’ Pharaoh known as Menes-Narmer ruled over the lands of Egypt there were other kings, deities and “those who came from above” who ruled over the land known as Egypt today.
This time in history, the pre-pharaonic period remains a great mystery for most scholars and Egyptologist, mostly because they cannot accept that what is written since it goes directly against the beliefs of most historians, archaeologists, and Egyptologists.
The time before 3000 BC, the date when the first official Pharaoh appeared in Egypt is a great enigma.
De Kernramp Van Tsjernobyl Vond 30 Jaar Geleden Plaats... Onderzoekers Hebben Een Bijzondere Ontdekking Gedaan!
De Kernramp Van Tsjernobyl Vond 30 Jaar Geleden Plaats... Onderzoekers Hebben Een Bijzondere Ontdekking Gedaan!
Als het gevolg van de kernramp die plaatsvond in Tsjernobyl in 1986, werd het gebied rondom de getroffen zone geëvacueerd. Tot op heden wordt het gebied nog steeds niet bewoond door mensen en de duizenden nieuwsgierige mensen die een bezoek willen brengen aan het gebied, worden grotendeels afgeweerd door de handhavers van de wet. Hoewel de plaats is verlaten, worden er talloze onderzoeken verricht in het gebied: naast de controles die worden uitgevoerd bij de kerncentrale en met betrekking tot de straling, wordt ook de fauna rondom Tsjernobyl nauwlettend in de gaten gehouden.
Tot de grote verrassing van de onderzoekers, heeft er een herbevolking plaatsgevonden van de wilde dieren die in de bossen rondom de zone van de rampplek leven.
Als gevolg van de kernramp werd er een groot gebied rondom de getroffen zone afgesloten. In de ring rondom de kerncentrale is minder straling aanwezig.
Deze ring is nu herbevolkt door dieren die van nature voorkomen in dit gebied: er zijn maar liefst 14 zoogdieren waargenomen, waaronder wolven, everzwijnen, beren, vossen en een Iberische lynx.
Er werden 5 weken lang 30 camera's geïnstalleerd die de aanwezigheid van deze zoogdieren hebben vastgelegd.
Dit betekent uiteraard niet dat de straling gunstig is geweest voor de ontwikkeling van de fauna, maar door de afwezigheid van de mens, was de natuur in staat om zich te herstellen en zelfs de meest onherbergzame gebieden opnieuw te veroveren.
Zonder invloeden als de jacht, ontbossing en landbouw, konden de dieren zich weer vestigen op de plekken die ze jaren geleden gedwongen moesten verlaten.
30 jaar na de ramp die de hele wereld schokte, heeft de natuur zegevierend het gebied weer ingenomen.
De conclusie van de onderzoeker was overduidelijk voor de onderzoekers: er is een waar natuurreservaat ontstaan in de bossen van Tsjernobyl!
In de video zie je een kudde wilde paarden die vrij rondzwerven in de onbewoonde bossen. Het zijn Przewalskipaarden, een paardenras dat met uitsterven wordt bedreigd.
Het is wonderbaarlijk om te zien dat er rondom een plek waar dood en verderf heeft plaatsgevonden, nu plaats is gemaakt voor nieuw leven!
WETENSCHAP & PLANEETDe maan heeft lang geleden een dampkring gehad, net als de aarde. Die atmosfeer ontstond meer dan 3 miljard jaar geleden en bestond ongeveer 70 miljoen jaar, maar vervloog uiteindelijk. De gassen verdwenen de ruimte in.
Wetenschappers van de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA trekken die conclusie na onderzoek op maanrotsen. Die zijn door maanwandelaars meegenomen naar de aarde. De rotsen zijn gemaakt van basalt en gevormd door oude vulkanen op de maan.

Die vulkanen zijn nu gedoofd, maar barstten veel uit toen de maan nog jong was. Lava stroomde over het oppervlak van de maan en de vulkanen vulden de atmosfeer met onder meer koolstofmonoxide, zwavel en water. Sporen daarvan zijn terug te vinden in de maanrotsen.
De atmosfeer van de maan was 3,5 miljard jaar geleden op zijn dikst. Hij was toen dichter dan de dampkring van Mars nu, maar het is ongeveer 100 keer dunner dan de lucht die wij inademen.
Een deel van de waterdamp is mogelijk terechtgekomen bij de noordpool en de zuidpool van de maan. Daar is het nu misschien nog steeds te vinden, als ijs en water onder het oppervlak.
