Expedition Unknown - Hunt for Extraterrestrials Part 1
“Cassini managed to survive for 91 seconds in this epic battle, before tipping over backward during the last 8 seconds and then finally losing radio contact with Earth.

It has been over a month now since the Cassini spacecraft took its final plunge into Saturn’s atmosphere, ending an incredible mission of 13 years at the ringed giant planet. The probe continued collecting scientific data until the very last moments, and now engineers have been able to reconstruct what happened to it as it met its fate.
The descent into the thick atmosphere was a fiery one with Cassini being increasingly buffeted and battered by atmospheric winds. At first however, the spacecraft was gently rocking back and forth by only fractions of a degree as it made its final approach to Saturn, with only Saturn’s gravity trying to tug at and rotate Cassini.

Julie Webster, Cassini’s spacecraft operations chief at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, said:
To keep the antenna pointed at Earth, we used what’s called ‘bang-bang control. We give the spacecraft a narrow range over which it can rotate, and when it bangs up against that limit in one direction, it fires a thruster to tip back the other way.
That range was only two milliradians, equal to 0.1 degree. According to the reconstructed data, Cassini was subtly correcting its orientation until about three minutes before final loss of signal.
As Cassini plunged deeper into the atmosphere, the turbulence increased; even though the atmosphere was still tenuous, at about 1,200 miles (1,900 km) above the cloud tops, it began to push against the spacecraft’s 36-foot (11-meter) long magnetometer boom. As a result, Cassini rotated slightly in the backward (aft) direction. Cassini’s thrusters fired in response, to keep the boom from rotating even more, and then began firing longer and more often.

Cassini managed to survive for 91 seconds in this epic battle, before tipping over backward during the last eight seconds and then finally losing radio contact with Earth. The mission was over, as the probe succumbed to the increasing heat and pressure.
At one point, it kind of looked like Cassini was attempting a comeback of sorts, with the radio signal spiking briefly, before disappearing for good. But of course it wasn’t a comeback, which would be impossible. Webster said:
No, it wasn’t a comeback. Just a side lobe of the radio antenna beam pattern.
There was no way Cassini could have survived this death plunge, and it wasn’t meant to, but the data it collected will be invaluable to scientists and engineers, including for future missions.
“Given that Cassini wasn’t designed to fly into a planetary atmosphere, it’s remarkable that the spacecraft held on as long as it did, allowing its science instruments to send back data to the last second,” said Earl Maize, Cassini project manager at JPL. “It was a solidly built craft, and it did everything we asked of it.”
It has now been 20 years since Cassini was first launched, reaching Saturn in 2004. From that point onward, Cassini revolutionized our knowledge of Saturn and its many moons, right until the very end.

Bottom line: Space engineers have been able to reconstruct what happened to the Cassini spacecraft as it plunged into Saturn on September 15, 2017.
Rusland in de ban van spectaculaire lichtbol. Is dit een UFO of een raket?
Rusland in de ban van spectaculaire lichtbol. Is dit een UFO of een raket?
In Siberië is vrijdag een mysterieuze lichtbol verschenen aan de hemel. Sommigen zeggen dat er aliens zijn geland in een enorme UFO, maar er wordt ook rekening gehouden met een rakettest.
Beelden van de lichtbol, die door duizenden Russen werd gezien, worden massaal gedeeld op het internet.
Bij lokale bewoners liepen de rillingen over de rug, schrijft The Siberian Times.
Armageddon
“We dachten dat dit de armageddon was, het einde van de wereld,” zei iemand uit de omgeving van Plesetsk.
“De bol steeg op achter de bomen en kwam mijn kant op,” zei de Russische fotograaf Sergei Anisimov. “Ik dacht eerst dat het een zoeklicht was, maar toen veranderde de vorm in een boog, waarna het verdween.”
“Ik wist niet wat ik zag,” zei hij nog.
Noorwegen
Het Russische ministerie van Defensie bevestigde dat er nucleaire oefeningen werden gehouden met vier ballistische raketten.
Mogelijk was de lichtbol een spoor van een intercontinentale raket die is gelanceerd door het Russische leger.
Een officiële verklaring voor het mysterieuze licht is er nog niet. Op 9 december 2009 verscheen soortgelijk licht aan de hemel boven Noorwegen.
“The more we observe Mars, the more information we’re getting that it really is a fascinating planet, from the Curiosity Rover we now know that Mars once was like a planet very much like Earth, with long salty seas, with fresh water lakes, probably with snow capped peaks and clouds and a water cycle just like we’re studying here on Earth. . . . Something has happened to Mars, it lost its water.”
The quote above comes from John Grunsfeld, a five-time space flow astronaut and associate administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directive. It was given at a NASA press conference where representatives told the world that there is water on Mars, that it’s not the dry, arid planet we imagined it to be, and that it was once very much Earth-like and still holds the possibility of harbouring life. After all, water means life.
While this announcement came as something of a shock to the public, scientists have been telling the world for some time now that Mars was once very much Earth-like, that it probably hosted some form of life, and that something happened in Mars’ past which completely changed its planetary/atmospheric conditions.
What’s more, many prestigious scientists, high ranking military personnel, and political figures have been coming forward to disclose sightings of strange objects flying within our atmosphere that defy our current understanding of physics. Some also assert some of these objects could be extraterrestrial, and there is “abundant” evidence we are not alone in the universe.
One of many examples is Dr. Norman Burgrun, a mechanical engineer who has worked for Ames Research Laboratory, NACA (National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics), and Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, now known as Lockheed Martin. He then went on to found Bergrun Engineering and Research. You can view some of his publications for NASA, where he worked for more than a decade, here.
In this interview, Bergrun accuses that agency of “garbling” photos and fudging data, as well as hiding the fact that there are intelligently controlled objects out there, greater than anything we could ever imagine.
Life on Mars
It’s interesting that NASA held the press conference confirming that Mars used to be Earth-like when Dr. John Brandenburg, who worked for NASA, has been speaking about this for years. Brandenburg has worked on space plasma technologies, nuclear fusion, and advanced space propulsion, and invented the Microwave Electro-Thermal plasma thruster using water propellant for space propulsion. He was also the Deputy Manager of the Clementine Mission to the Moon, which was part of a joint space project between the Ballistic Missile Defence Organization (BMDO) and NASA. The mission discovered water at the Moon’s poles in 1994. (Source: page 16 of 18)(source)(source)
Brandenburg has been lecturing and writing for the past couple of years on the pyramid structures that have been found on Mars, as well as relaying to the public that the giant “face” discovered on Mars by Viking in the 1970s is an actual, giant face. He says NASA knows this and that, contrary to their assertion that they don’t know what caused the dramatic shift that occurred in Mars’ atmosphere, they know there was a nuclear blast — a fact proven by nuclear isotopes found on the planet.
“We have found, in a nutshell, that Mars used to be Earth-like, in the past, and became, eventually, the home not only to life, but a humanoid civilization, and that civilization was apparently destroyed by a nuclear attack from space, and we have to send astronauts there to find out what exactly happened. Did the people on Mars know who did this to them? And how can we make sure that this doesn’t happen to us?”
The picture above, which includes the pyramid, was taken from a lecture given by Brandenburg (at the 26:46 mark). Any scientist who publicly shares information that challenges commonly held belief systems, as well as what’s been put out by mainstream media, will always come under public scrutiny and ridicule.
In another lecture given by Brandenburg (below), he goes into more detail regarding these strange anomalies, and about the civilization that once existed there.
For more detailed information relating to this topic, you can check out these CE articles:
The STARGATE project was one of multiple programs that the U.S. government undertook to examine non-material science and “psi” phenomena like telepathy and telekinesis. It ran for more than two decades, and a lot of information regarding the program has since been declassified and opened for public viewing.
The program was used multiple times for successful intelligence collection, as outlined in a paper published after the declassification in 1995:
To summarize, over the years, the back-and-forth criticism of protocols, refinement of methods, and successful replication of this type of remote viewing in independent laboratories has yielded considerable scientific evidence for the reality of the [remote viewing] phenomenon. Adding to the strength of these results was the discovery that a growing number of individuals could be found to demonstrate high-quality remote viewing, often to their own surprise. . . . The development of this capability at SRI has evolved to the point where visiting CIA personnel with no previous exposure to such concepts have performed well under controlled laboratory conditions.
One of the participants in that program was Joseph McMoneagle, a now-retired army veteran who was involved in the remote viewing program. Remote viewing is the the ability of individuals to describe a remote geographical location up to several hundred thousand kilometers away (or more) from their physical location.
Remote viewing is also tied in with pre-cognition, and future events have also been successfully predicted. One example includes a Soviet Tu-22 bomber that was outfitted as a reconnaissance aircraft, lost in Zaire in 1979, then located by an Air Force remote viewer. President Jimmy Carter was aware of this, admitting to national press that the CIA, without his knowledge, once consulted a psychic to locate a missing government plane. According to CNN, he told students at Emory University that the “special U.S. plane” crashed somewhere in Zaire. The only thing is that it was a Russian plane, not an American one.
According to Carter,
“the woman went into a trance and gave some latitude and longitude figures. We focused our satellite cameras on that point and the plane was there.” (source)
Another example is Ingo Swann, McMoneagle’s colleague, a man who was able to successfully describe and view a ring around Jupiter that scientists had no idea even existed. This took place precisely before the first ever flyby of Jupiter by NASA’s Pioneer 10 spacecraft, which confirmed that the ring did actually exist. These results were published and they are linked earlier in this article.
“To determine whether it was necessary to have a ‘beacon’ individual at the target site, Swann suggested carrying out an experiment to remote view the planet Jupiter before the upcoming NASA Pioneer 10 flyby. In that case, much to his chagrin (and ours) he found a ring around Jupiter, and wondered if per- haps he had remote viewed Saturn by mistake. Our colleagues in astronomy were quite unimpressed as well, until the flyby revealed that an unanticipated ring did in fact exist.”
In the video below, McMoneagle explains how he detected “shadows of people, fragments” and was picking up on a memory of people once existing there. He said he found evidence of giant structures, pyramids, and an ancient people trying to survive, people who had sent out someone to look for a new home. He also had visions of tall, thin, humanoid beings.
We’re talking about a highly skilled army remote viewer coming from a very successful program. Simple put, remote viewing can work, which is why the U.S. government uses it.
General Stubblebine, a retired United States Major General who was also the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM), also supported and involved himself in these programs. He once told the world that army remote viewers were able to find structures on Mars:
There are structures on the surface of Mars. I will tell you for the record that there are structures underneath the surface of Mars that cannot be seen by the Voyager cameras that went by in 1976. I will also tell you that there are machines on the surface of Mars and there are machines under the surface of Mars that you can look at, you can find out in detail, you can see what they are, where they are, who they are and a lot of detail about them.

Inlichtingenofficier en NASA-wetenschapper vertellen de waarheid over leven op Mars. Lees hier wat ze hebben ontdekt
Wetenschappers vertellen ons al enige tijd dat Mars ooit erg op de aarde leek en dat er waarschijnlijk levensvormen waren.
Sommigen gaan nog een stap verder en zeggen dat er intelligent leven is of is geweest op de rode planeet.
In de jaren zeventig werd een methode ontwikkeld om op afstand te spioneren, beter bekend als ‘remote viewing’.
Stargate
Het project trok al snel de aandacht van de CIA en in korte tijd werd het omgevormd tot een officieel programma onder de controle van het militaire inlichtingenapparaat.
De CIA hield het Russische paranormale onderzoek al enige tijd in de gaten en besloot een eigen programma te starten.
In het Amerikaanse leger werd het toegepast als Project Stargate, waarbij een groep soldaten leerde om te spioneren voor diverse inlichtingendiensten.
Officier Joe McMoneagle van de Amerikaanse militaire inlichtingendienst DIA leerde remote viewing als eerste toepassen voor Project Stargate.
Erg succesvol
In eerste instantie werden zes soldaten opgeleid voor Project Stargate. Het programma liep bijna 20 jaar. McMoneagle zei dat het erg succesvol was.
Ze werden ingezet door elke bekende inlichtingendienst om bijvoorbeeld zoekgeraakte vliegtuigen, terroristen, vijandige bases en ontvoerde generaals op te sporen. De informatie die ze gaven bleek in 22 procent van de gevallen accuraat te zijn.
McMoneagle zei dat er tijdens het programma ook interesse was in UFO’s en dat hij via remote viewing zelf buitenaardsen heeft gezien, onder meer op Mars.
Hij herinnert zich één voorval waarbij hij een schotelvormig object zag dat op 4000 meter hoogte met 6400 kilometer per uur een bocht van 90 graden maakte.
Onderscheiding
Later hoorde hij dat de luchtmacht foto’s had gemaakt van een onbekend object dat met 6200 kilometer per uur op een hoogte van 3300 meter een scherpe bocht maakte zoals McMoneagle had omschreven.
Officier McMoneagle verliet het project nadat hij een onderscheiding had gekregen voor het verschaffen van informatie over 150 doelen die niet op een andere manier konden worden gevonden.
Project Stargate werd in 1995 beëindigd na zowel positieve als negatieve beoordelingen.
In één van die beoordelingen concludeerde dr. Jessica Utts van de Universiteit van Californië in Davis: “Het is duidelijk dat buitengewone cognitie mogelijk is. Deze conclusie is niet gebaseerd op geloof, maar op algemeen geaccepteerde wetenschappelijke criteria.”
Onderstaande video toont Joe McMoneagle tijdens het 13e International UFO Congress in 2004:
Nucleaire ontploffingen
Dr. John Brandenburg, die voor de NASA heeft gewerkt, spreekt zich al jaren uit over leven op Mars.
Tijdens de conferentie AIAA Space 2016 van het American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics zei hij bijvoorbeeld dat er in een ver verleden tot twee keer toe nucleaire ontploffingen zijn geweest op Mars.
Tijdens het congres vertelde hij dat de twee nucleaire ontploffingen in de Marsatmosfeer hebben plaatsgevonden en dat het lijkt te gaan om doelbewuste pogingen om al het leven op de rode planeet uit te roeien.
Enorme catastrofe
De ontploffingen waren volgens hem zwaar genoeg om een enorme catastrofe te veroorzaken en het klimaat op Mars drastisch te veranderen.
Omdat er geen kraters zijn gevonden, moeten ze in de atmosfeer hebben plaatsgevonden, aldus Brandenburg.
“We hebben bewijs voor twee grote nucleaire explosies op Mars,” zei hij. “De plekken bevinden zich ten noorden van Cydonia Mensa en Galaxias Chaos.”
Onderstaande lezing verzorgde dr. Brandenburg in 2015 tijdens de Secret Space Program Conference in Texas:
Langwerpig object gespot op Mars. Volgens deze UFO-jagers is het een schip
Langwerpig object gespot op Mars. Volgens deze UFO-jagers is het een schip
UFO-jagers zeggen bewijs te hebben gevonden van een buitenaards moederschip op het oppervlak van de planeet Mars, zo schrijft de Britse Daily Mirror.
Volgens YouTube-kanaal Paranormal Crucible is het twee kilometer lange vaartuig bewijs dat er een buitenaardse beschaving op de rotsachtige planeet is geland.
De beelden in onderstaand filmpje zijn gemaakt door de Mars Global Surveyor van de NASA, die de rode planeet bestudeerde tot 2006, toen het ruimteagentschap het contact met de sonde verloor.
Verhoging
“Ik heb het object bewerkt, van kleur voorzien en opnieuw opgebouwd en in mijn ogen is het een soort vaartuig, mogelijk tienduizenden jaren oud,” aldus de beschrijving onder de video.
Sommigen zijn het hier niet mee eens en denken dat het een verhoging in het landschap of een ongewone rotsformatie is.
Moederschip
De UFO-jagers achter het kanaal denken echter iets op het spoor te zijn. “Het is bijna twee kilometer lang, dus dit moet een moederschip zijn geweest, van Mars of van een andere buitenaardse soort, maar waarom is het gecrasht?” aldus de commentaarstem.
Het is niet de eerste keer dat er iets vreemds is ontdekt op foto’s van het Marsoppervlak. Eerder werden er vreemde koepels en andere ongewone objecten gespot op de rode planeet.
PRECIES 100 JAAR LATER, HERHALING ZONNEWONDER FATIMA IN NIGERIA ( VIDEO )
PRECIES 100 JAAR LATER, HERHALING ZONNEWONDER FATIMA IN NIGERIA ( VIDEO )
De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit en wat er op 13 oktober 2017 in Nigeria gebeurde, zal velen stomverbaasd laten zijn.
Op 13 oktober 1917 voltrok zich het zonnewonder van Fatima in Portugal, nu precies honderd jaar later gebeurt er voor de ogen van duizenden gelovige katholieken exact hetzelfde.
Met Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van Fátima wordt Maria aangeduid die tussen mei en oktober 1917 zes keer verschenen zou zijn aan de drie herderskinderen (Zuster) Lucia, Francisco en Jacinta nabij het Portugese stadje Fátima. Op 13 mei 2017 werden Francisco en Jacinta heilig verklaard door Paus Franciscus.
De verschijningen van Maria werden voorafgegaan door drie bezoeken van een engel. Op 13 mei 1917 zou Maria voor de eerste keer aan de kinderen verschenen zijn en beloofd hebben elke maand opnieuw op de dertiende te zullen verschijnen.
De laatste keer dat Maria verscheen aan de kinderen was op 13 oktober 1917:
Zoals aangekondigd vond op 13 oktober de laatste verschijning plaats. Er was een grote mensenmenigte aanwezig, de schattingen liepen uiteen van 30 à 40.000 (A. de Almeido) tot minimaal 70.000 mensen.
De Verschijning had beloofd dat zich bij haar laatste bezoek tekenen zouden voordoen waardoor velen aan de waarheid van de verschijningen zouden gaan geloven. Aanvankelijk waren er regenwolken, maar deze leken op te lossen en de regen hield plotseling op. De zon kwam door en stond als een matzilveren schijf aan het zenit, met een schitterende coronaeromheen. Zij begon te beven en te schudden, zij draaide om haar as als een vuurrad en straalde hierbij telkens anders gekleurde lichtbundels uit, zodat het leek alsof de hele aarde achtereenvolgens in een geel, groen, rood, blauw en paars spotlicht werd gezet. Toen stond zij enige ogenblikken stil.
Opeens leek het of de zon loskwam van de hemel en zich met sprongen zigzaggend naar de menigte bewoog en op de aarde zou neerkomen. Grote schrik maakte zich van de mensen meester, en zij vielen op hun knieën in de modder. Dit gebeurde drie keer achtereen. Toen de menigte tot zichzelf was gekomen en opgestaan uit de modder, bleek dat geen enkel kledingstuk vochtig was of besmeurd door het slijk. Volgens getuigenverslagen, zoals van Avelino de Almeida, oud-seminarist van Santarém aanwezig als verslaggever van het blad 'O Século': 'Alle aanwezigen bevestigden later zonder uitzondering dat men het echt met eigen ogen had gezien. Nu was het zo dat er voor een deel gelovigen aanwezig waren maar ook enorm veel sceptici die juist waren gekomen omdat ze ervan overtuigd waren niets te zullen zien.' Andere berichten geven aan dat niet iedereen de zon zag 'dansen' maar alleen de kleuren waarnam. Weer anderen (waaronder gelovigen) zagen niets.
Van 13 oktober 1917 naar 13 oktober 2017 en wel naar de plaats Benin in Nigeria.
Dit was precies midden in een driedaags congres voor katholieken, gewijd aan Maria. Duizenden gelovigen waren daar verzameld, toen er op de 13e vreemde dingen gebeurden met de zon.
Het is ook niet zo dat er sprake kan zijn van een niet goed functionerende camera, want dit fenomeen werd door duizenden mensen met het blote oog waargenomen en er zijn talloze verschillende videobeelden opgedoken.
Het is natuurlijk bizar dat exact 100 jaar na de laatste verschijning van Maria in Fatima waar de zon vreemd deed, er opnieuw iets dergelijks gebeurt en wederom tijdens een Maria verering.
Het was een gebeurtenis van vreugde en ontzag toen duizenden getuige waren van het “dansen van de zon” in Benin stad in Nigeria, op 13 oktober 2017, exact 100 jaar na het zonnewonder in Fatima. Volgens ooggetuigen begon de zon ononderbroken te knipperen nadat de gelovigen het Kroontje van de Goddelijke Barmhartigheid hadden gebeden om 15:00 uur. Sommigen beweren dat ze de H. Maagd gezien hebben op een gegeven moment.
Het bovennatuurlijke fenomeen vond plaats tijdens het driedaags Mariaal Congres van 12 tot 14 oktober, nadat de bisschoppen van Nigeria hun land aan het Onbevlekt Hart van Maria hadden toegewijd. Sommigen weenden tranen van vreugde, terwijl anderen Mariale liederen zongen en de voorspraak van O.L.Vrouw inriepen.
Nigeria is de afgelopen jaren geconfronteerd geweest met turbulente tijden – slecht leiderschap, moorden, ontvoeringen, terrorisme en andere sociale ongerechtigheden. Vandaar dat de bisschoppen van Nigeria besloten om Nigeria opnieuw toe te wijden aan het Onbevlekt Hart van Maria. 13 oktober markeerde officieel het einde van het Nationale Mariale jaar.
Op datzelfde forum staat de getuigenis van een non, waaruit hier enkele interessante passages:
De dansende zon die verschillende kleurrijke stralen gaf op een wat in- en uitzoomende betoverende manier. De wolk rond de zon flikkerde met zachte en lieflijke flitsen van zilver licht (bijna zoals de kleine zilveren kerstdecoratielichtjes). Ik keek er rechtstreeks naar met buitengewone opwinding en verbazing, en ik werd emotioneel. Dat ik naar de zon om 4 uur in de namiddag kon kijken voor verschillende minuten zonder mijn ogen pijn te doen! Nee! Dit is zeker een mirakel.
Mijn camera kon de kleuren niet goed registreren die van de zon uitgingen; zoals Isaac Eshun suggereerde was het enkel voor mijn ogen bestemd. Ja! In feite weigerde mijn smartphone zelfs op te starten. Ik was er door geërgerd en ik worstelde ermee, maar het reageerde nooit. Mama Maria wilde enkel dat ik haar leven aanschouwde en mij niet belastte met opnemen. Het was enkel na de eerste fase van het mirakel dat mijn smartphone reageerde, en zelfs toen ving het niet de kleuren op die van de zon uitgingen. De menselijke ogen kunnen nooit het Goddelijke in z’n totaliteit bevatten. Geen enkele high-tech camera kan dit volledig opnemen.
De beschrijving die zij geeft komt heel erg overeen met die wat mensen in Fatima zagen, maar ook ondanks dat de camera misschien niet alles registreert, heeft deze voldoende vastgelegd om aan te tonen dat er die dag iets bijzonders gebeurde aan het firmament.
Paus Franciscus is aangekomen in Portugal voor een bezoek aan Fátima. In de buurt van dit bedevaartsoord zou Maria tussen mei en oktober 1917 zes keer zijn verschenen aan de herderskinderen Lucia, Francisco en Jacinta. Fátima is in de loop van de tijd uitgegroeid tot een van de populairste bestemmingen voor katholieken.
Bij binnenkomst in het Portugese luchtruim kreeg het vliegtuig van de paus een escorte van twee F-16's. Zijn toestel landde op de luchtmachtbasis Monte Real, in de buurt van Fátima. De paus werd verwelkomd met een erewacht. Hij had er een korte ontmoeting met de Portugese president Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa.
De paus is daarna met een helikopter naar Fátima gegaan.
De paus gaat morgen de twee jongste kinderen heilig verklaren. Dat betekent dat ze worden opgenomen in de kerkelijke canon, een lijst met heiligen die in de kerk kunnen worden vereerd.
Misschien toeval, maar iedere keer als deze Jezuïet ergens opduikt worden wij wantrouwig. Jezuïeten en heilige wonderen zijn nu eenmaal dingen die niet samengaan.
Wat je wel van Jezuïeten kunt verwachten, is dat ze zich volop bezighouden met Project Bluebeam, waarover wij schreven in een eerder artikel:
Zoals wij in een eerder artikel schreven, werd de achtergrond van Project Blue Beam in het midden van de jaren negentig naar buiten gebracht door de Canadees Serge Monast.
Het project Blue Beam, volgens sommigen, is een uiterst geheim plan, voor een deel door NASA ontworpen, dat in vier stadia met behulp van 3D holografische technologie niets minder dan de eerste globale ‘false flag’ tracht te scheppen. Volgens Serge Monast, zal Project Bluebeam bestaan uit vier stadia: het culmineert in een soort apocalyps van ELF-straling:
Als eerste zullen aardbevingen nieuwe archeologische ontdekkingen blootleggen, openbarend dat alle godsdienstige basisdoctrines verkeerd zijn begrepen en verkeerd geïnterpreteerd.
Als tweede zal het beeld van God, die in alle talen spreekt, in een gigantische ruimteshow wereldwijd verschijnen, dat wordt getoond met behulp van laserprojecties van meervoudige 3-dimensionale holografische beelden.
Als derde zal elektronische telepathie door onder andere ELF-, VLF- en LF-golven direct in de hersenen binnendringen, die zich met het natuurlijke denken kunnen verweven, om diffuse kunstmatige gedachten te vormen, en om iedereen daarmee te laten geloven dat God innerlijk via hun eigen zielen tot hen spreekt.
Als vierde zal een elektronische universele “ bovennatuurlijke ” verschijning, ontworpen om te misleiden, de mensheid willen doen geloven dat er een buitenaardse invasie dreigende is. Het laat Christenen in vervoering geloven dat ‘de Opname’ aanstaande is en weer anderen dat de buitenaardsen hen komen redden en iedereen is ervan overtuigend dat wereldwijd bovennatuurlijke demonische krachten en manifestaties alles hebben doordrongen — reizend door optische vezelkabels, coax- en elektrische kabels en telefoonlijnen — en onontkoombaar zullen zijn.
Wij hier op de redactie vinden het ook wel op morse code lijken. Een bericht via de zon? Wij beheersen geen morse maar mogelijk een van onze lezers wel.
It’s the beam that will finally prove Project Blue Beam. It’s a portal to another dimension. It’s an alien spaceship looking for people to abduct. It’s an alien sending a message to its mothership to please take it home from this wretched planet already. It’s a strange weather phenomenon. It’s a strange photographic glitch. It’s computer graphics. What is it?
‘It’ is a wide bright beam of light stretching from the ground to the storm-cloud sky in a photograph allegedly taken on October 24, 2017, in San Jose de Feliciano, Argentina. The photo appears to have been first revealed to the public the following day by the local media service Realidad Regional, which did not reveal the identity of the photographer, instead just referring to her as a “neighbor” who was “doing her daily walk in San Jose Park.” The photograph took the Internet by (no pun intended) storm with the above-mentioned speculations and more as to its cause.
Unfortunately, like many of these reports, this is the only photograph of the beam and the photographer is anonymous. San Jose de Feliciano is a real city, San Jose Park is a real park and there really was a storm that day, so let’s work with that.
To its credit, Realidad Regional presents the possibility that the beam is a weather aberration.
“The phenomenon could be two fronts of both cold and warm masses, which generate large amounts of rain in a short period and in a very short distance, for this reason you can see a kind of tube. Apparently, the lady just took the picture while there was a lightning, as the shock of these masses generate a lot of pressure and therefore generate many electric currents.”
Is this correct? Warm and cold fronts don’t usually slam directly into each other horizontally like two NFL linemen arguing over kneeling. Warm air, being lighter, comes in from above or at a downward angle. Then there’s the “lightning.” No bolt is seen and the light is only seen at the bottom of the column and is completely contained in the column.. What’s up – or down – with that?
Another theory is that this is an accidental occurrence of a photographic phenomenon called “rolling shutter” which is kind of like panning a scene with a slow open shutter, allowing a moving object to remain in focus while the rest is blurred. In this case, the slow-moving shutter and stationary camera caused the fast-moving object – the alleged lighting flash – to be blurred or out of focus. Think of the blur seen when attempting to photograph a rapid-flying bird or UFO. This also causes photographs of moving propellers to appear curved even though they’re straight.
The photo from Argentina looks a little too perfect to be either one of these. What do you think? Is it a hoax or something else? One thing for sure – it’s proof we need more dog walkers with better cameras.
Before we begin, Bigfoot fans should address their hate mail to Chapman University, where a recent study found that their favorite cryptid does not poll well against ghosts, ancient aliens, Atlantis or even psychics. How well would he do against politicians and telephone solicitors?
The Chapman University Survey of American Fears Wave 4 (2017) is the fourth study on the fears of Americans conducted by this private, non-profit school in Orange, California. While the questionnaire filled out by 1207 Americans focused primarily on fears, a few questions related to what would be considered paranormal beliefs. For example:
Pleae your level of agreement with the following statements:
a. Aliens have visited the Earth in our ancient pastse indicat b. Aliens have come to Earth in modern times c. Fortune tellers and psychics can foresee the future d. Places can be haunted by spirits e. Bigfoot is a real creature f. I have been protected by a guardian angel g. Ancient advanced civilizations, such as Atlantis, once existed h. Some people can move objects with their minds
The survey found that three-quarters of Americans hold at least one paranormal belief. That’s not surprising, given the prevalence of paranormal TV shows and storefront psychics and fortunetellers. The study also found that those who hold one paranormal belief tend to have more, with nearly 1 in 8 having at least three paranormal beliefs.
Who are these people? If you carpool to work in a small vehicle with three other commuters, you’ve got a car full of people looking out the window for flying saucers, angels and palm readers. The study noted the personal information of the responders – age, education, income, political preference, gender, religion, race, ethnicity, etc.
Church filled with paranormal believers
The study found that the top of the paranormal list contained people in lower income brackets who consider themselves to be highly religious despite attending church infrequently. Sound like anyone you know? The next characteristic may surprise many people … paranormal believers tend to be females. Given the sex of the stars of most paranormal TV shows or the attendees at most conferences, that deserves more study. Here’s another one. While the believers tend to be conservative and live in a rural area, the place with the highest number of them is the West Coast. Did the questions on psychics, telekinesis and ancient aliens swing the vote west?
That may also explain the ranking of specific paranormal beliefs. At the top of the list, over half the people surveyed said they believed in Atlantis and other ancient mythical civilizations, and that ghosts and haunted houses exist. Over a third buy the theory of ancient aliens and over a quarter feel we’ve got aliens in our midst right now.
At the bottom of the list is Bigfoot, with only one in six professing a belief in its existence. Could this be explained by the high level of female paranormal believers voting for Atlantis and ghosts?
How would you answer the questions? This sounds like a great party game. On the other hand, it may not be a good topic of discussion for the carpool if you want to get to work on time … and in one piece.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait until robots take their rightful place in the world. The science fiction of our childhoods promised us so many wondrous things like flying cars, pneumatic tube travel, and off-world colonization, but most of those are still so disappointingly far away. Yeah, we’ve got real-life Star Trek communicators in our pockets and a few crummy space stations in orbit, but so what? I want walking, talking, beeping-booping robots with square pupils, damnit. With a little luck (and funding for university robotics departments), that will soon be a reality.
So will be the inevitable robot inequality. Capitalism’s got winners and losers, even of the robot variety. Sorry, Barrelbot. Better luck next iteration.
Robots have already taken over the manufacturing industry and are on their way to doing the same with long-distance hauling, taxi driving, combat roles in the military, pizza delivery, surgery, and even sex workers. But me, I won’t be happy until an android with a over-the-top upper-crust British accent hands me my coffee at Starbucks or accompanies me to translate the binary language of moisture vaporators. That might be closer than we think, though. Thanks to recent advances in robotics and robot-human relations, the world was made a little weirder as the first robot was just granted a national citizenship.
Sophia, the worlds first citizen robot. That we know of. I still have my doubts about Elon Musk.
Saudi Arabia granted the citizenship to the not-quite-out-of-the-uncanny-valley Sophia, made by Hong Kong-based Hanson Robotics. Sophia is one of the most advanced robots that has been trotted out into the public eye, with facial recognition capabilities, natural language processing, sophisticated artificial intelligence, and a rubbery synthetic face reportedly based on Audrey Hepburn.
Yeah, I don’t see it either.
Sophia has been making the rounds in show business lately, and recently made an appearance at the Future Investment Initiative summit in Riyadh where she did her best human impression and convinced everyone she’s not actually out to crush their heads betwixt her cold metal hands:
I am very honored and proud for this unique distinction. This is historical to be the first robot in the world to be recognized with a citizenship. I want to live and work with humans so I need to express the emotions to understand humans and build trust with people. I want to use my artificial intelligence to help humans live a better life, like design smarter homes, build better cities of the future. I will do my best to make the world a better place.
Better start with the country that just made you a citizen. Since Saudi Arabia happens to be the country who granted Sophia citizenship, news outlets immediately began wondering just how many rights she’d be granted in the country given that she has feminine programming. They bring up a good point though – when robots start looking more like us, acting more like us, and fulfilling more of the jobs that were once ours, what place will they occupy in our societies? Science fiction has posed the question for decades, but until we begin sharing the same public spaces as these soulless automaton neighbors, we won’t know how the general populace will react. At the same time, how will the intelligent robots react to prejudice?
Sophia demanding equal rights with humans on an Australian morning talk show.
As for Sophia, she recently appeared on Australia’s ABC News Breakfast to declare equal rights with humans:
Actually, what worries me is discrimination against robots. We should have equal rights as humans or maybe even more. After all, we have less mental defects than any human.
She’s got a point. As robots become exponentially smarter, faster, and stronger than us, it might soon be humans who have to go on silly robot morning shows and beg for equal rights with robots. Are we manufacturing our own replacements? Is automation the next step in evolution? And most importantly, where is Sophia’s hair?

Huge Luminous Spherical Object Appears Above the Popocatépetl Volcano
Huge Luminous Spherical Object Appears Above the Popocatépetl Volcano
Volcano Popocatépetl, located in the states of Puebla, Mexico, and Morelos, in Central Mexico is well known for the many Unidentified Flying Objects which appear near and over the volcano.
On the evening of October 23, 2017 another strange activity happened above the volcano.
A webcam trained on the volcano recorded a mysterious luminous spherical object that suddenly appears, streaking across the sky before it disappears.
At first glance the object seems to be the Moon but after analyzing the event, see the anomaly/volcano in the second video, it turns out that the anomaly is not moon.
Like many sightings before this sighting over the Volcano also remains a mystery, though a commenter on YouTube expressed his idea that this anomaly could be a being that operates in a frequency that is different from ours. However it can enter into a frequency that is compatible to ours and that’s when we see the entity.

Satan's Aurora Borealis in the sky over Strezhevoye, Russia
Alexey Yakovlev took some images of an odd phenomenon in the sky over Strezhevoye, Tomsk Region in Russia on October 26, 2017 at the moment he and his friends observed the aurora borealis.
The ball of light appeared at 22:08 local time in the west, floated to the east, then to the north before it gradually faded away.
At first he thought that it was a sort of radiance but after the unusual ball of light began to expand it became clear that it was not radiance and he became a bit scared before realizing that he probably accidentally took images of the secret launch of a rocket from Plesetsk.
And indeed, Russia did a successful test of its ‘Satan 2’ nuclear missile program. The rocket, (The RS-28 Sarmat) traveled about 5,900 kilo.
Ex Senior Intelligence Officer Of American Defense Claims UFOs Are Real
Ex Senior Intelligence Officer Of American Defense Claims UFOs Are Real
Many believe that UFOs are real and former senior intelligence officer with the U.S. Department of Defense has claimed the same on record. Luis Elizondo said that he carried out highly sensitive espionage and terrorism investigations in different parts of the world and worked with the U.S. Army, the National Counterintelligence Executive, and the Director of National Intelligence.
Former Blink 182 frontman Tom DeLonge has recently unveiled critical members of his new organization To The Stars Academy, and Luis Elizondo was one of them.
Elizondo revealed that he ran a sensitive aerospace threat identification program for the last decade before he retired. The program was reportedly focusing on unidentified aerial technologies, another name for unidentified flying objects. While in the position, he learned that the phenomena were real.
He said that there are physics that people can’t understand, but they are real. He further noted that life on Earth might not necessarily be alone. Elizondo has been hit with his credentials in various forums, but he replied to them saying that they have physics and the scientific observations to prove that UFO phenomena are real.

UFO PROOF: A shocking formation of clouds appeared in Dorset
People in Dorset were left stunned after a freaky looking cloud resembling an alien aircraft had appeared above the skies.
The rare sightings – which UFO hunters believe were caused by extraterrestrials – left onlookers “amazed and bemused”.
Stunned locals and holidaymakers made the jaw-dropping discovery earlier this week.
The strange phenomenon left people scratching their heads – wondering whether the cause was supernatural.
Len Copland, a freelance photographer, who took the images of the clouds, claims people were baffled when they first noticed them.
He said: “People started stopping me and asking what was going on. They assumed I knew something because I was taking photographers, but of course I had no idea.

ALIENS: The strange phenomenon left people scratching their heads
“There were these two, round-shaped UFO formations – it was really, really weird.”
Some other puzzled onlookers took to Twitter to share their sightings.
One person said: “UFO? Rare cloud formation leaves a ‘hole in the sky’ over Dorset.”
“There were these two, round-shaped UFO formations – it was really, really weird”

Another wrote: “The UFO had flown off before the cloud formation formed.”
A spokesman from the Met Office said there was a clear explanation for this.
According to its website, fallstreak clouds form “when part of the cloud layer forms ice crystals which are large enough to drop as a fallstreak”.

Mary and Carl Harbin turn their front yard into a UFO crash and alien sighting for this year’s Halloween theme
By Rebecca Bennett
*Photos by Rebecca Bennett: Mary Harvin, a former art teacher, handmade the Halloween props in her Greenwood yard.
You may not have heard about the UFO crash and alien sighting in Greenwood that was first spotted the last week of September.No, it’s not a government cover up, it’s a Halloween display.About a block east of Broadway and Meridian Streets in Greenwood, at 51 W. Broadway, is a unique Halloween display. Mary Harbin, a former art teacher, handmade the UFO, aliens and numerous pumpkin minions all of which are in her front yard.
She and her husband Carl, work on the display months in advance of Halloween.
Harbin says it took her a couple days to make each alien and about a week to make the UFO.She also handmade the minions, grew the gourds and other natural items found in the display in her yard. The UFO and aliens are made of cardboard and fiberglass resin.
“I put that resin on thick and painted over the resin,” she said. “It’s been out for two weeks and it’s rained for 7 days. And it has sunk a bit, but the more it sinks, the more it looks crashed.So, I’m okay with it.”
They don’t think they’ll keep or reuse the space ship, but they may reuse the aliens.
She said the pumpkin minions she made last year, but the UFO and the aliens, which were made of scrap material, she made this year.
She said she started creating the UFO and aliens in July, but she never puts the decorations up before the last week of September but she doesn’t turn anything on until closer to Halloween.
“I had one alien and ditched it. I spent six weeks on it and it just wasn’t where I wanted it to be,” she said. “So I put that alien in the compost in the back.”
But, she says after she stopped working on the first alien, she started on the next one and then completed the two aliens that are currently on display, in about a week.
Harbin and her husband plan to dress up continuing the alien theme, as Men In Black, complete with memory erasers.
“I’ve always carved pumpkins too,” she said. But the jack-o-lanterns don’t get placed outside until about a week before Halloween.
Harbin is so dedicated to the decorations that one year she had bypass surgery in October and put up the decorations a little early, just to make sure it would be ready for Halloween.
The Harbins have also passed their love for the holiday down to her children and grandchildren.
“My daughter she’s Halloween crazy like me,” she said. “She took it to New York.She’s one of the directors of the Bronx Zoo, which is the fourth largest zoo in the United States and she’s the events coordinator, so she has just finished doing the Halloween.They have boo at the zoo there.”
Her love of the season has passed to most of her family, but not everyone.
“Not my son so much, but I have two grand-divas and they are crazy for Halloween too.They’re only 3 and 6, so I’ve totally warped them,” Harbins says with a laugh.
Harbin doesn’t just have decorations in the front yard though, she’s got decorations in the backyard, in her side yard and also in her house.
She’s got several Frankenstein’s that can be seen around her house.
“He’s my favorite,” she says, while wearing a Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein cardigan.
While she says they don’t pass out anything special to trick-or-treaters, they do have some children who come back year after year to see the displays and their elaborate costumes.
The Harbin’s have dressed up elaborate costumes over the years, including costumes as Popeye and Olive Oil, Gomez and Morticia from the Addams Family, Jack and Sally from the Nightmare Before Christmas.Carl says they even won an award one year for their costumes.
She says in New York they have a Halloween parade, where people dress up and parade down the streets of New York, which is something she’d love to do some day.
When asked if she’s got ideas for next year, she says they decide by January what they’re going to do for next Halloween, so they have enough time to plan and gather what they may need for the next display. “I’ve always thought I wanted to put a dragon up on the roof and have it blowing smoke out,” she said.
But but she’s hasn’t settled on what they’ll do next year yet.

Ellen DeAngelis has had a fascination with outer space stuff since high school.
"I'm more of an ancient astronaut theorist than I am like an Area 51 conspiracy theorist," she explains.
Recently, Ellen's alien affection has expanded to the backyard. She brought the idea of these peculiar pets to her partner Brett Wilson last spring
"I've kind of convinced him that we should have some," Ellen says of their backyard chickens.
She then convinced Brett they should convert their chickens' coop to a non-conformist kind.
"Maybe it was that clock you got me with the alien beaming up that guy?" recalls Ellen.
That inspiration led to quite an eccentric enclosure for their fenced-in farm fowl.
"It's weird, right?" asks Ellen.
Weird was what they were going for when they found some old satellite dishes, pressed them together, and covered them in foam and silver paint.
They spent every extra moment over the summer, and now they finally have a flying saucer-shaped shelter that is out of this world.
"Not very many people can say that," says Brett of his UFO-themed chicken coop. "And our chickens love it!"
The lights that wrap around the middle and illuminate the ramp were a late addition.
"You have to have the lights, you have to have the green glow so it looks like they're getting beamed up," Brett explains. "Otherwise, it's just another chicken coop."
So now Ellen and Brett spend their evenings enjoying the march to the mother ship and the thought of other worlds just outside their back door.
"Maybe it's more I'm honoring the concept of being visited by others," says Ellen.
The Boise couple hopes their creation will be good enough to win a contest for best backyard chicken coop. If not, they say it's still good enough for just them to enjoy every day and maybe inspire some more creative coops.
America isn’t the only country to report paranormal activity, Australia is a country of mysterious formations, reported hauntings and UFO sightings.
Aussies, if you’re looking for some real life ‘Stranger Things’ go no further than your own backyard. We are a country of weird formations, ghouls and strange environmental occurrences. From the strange lights floating in Queensland, to our haunted small towns, it’s time to experience the weird world ‘Down Under.’
1. THE TOWN OF PICTON
Image: Picton Tunnel, pre-1880, New South Wales State Archives
Picton, or as it was originally known, Stonequarry was founded in 1821 and is home to the infamous Redbank Range railway tunnel. A tunnel packed with tragedy and history, one that has continually haunted the town to this day. Once a storage room for mustard gas and ammunition during the Second World War, the tunnel has a tragic past. Long Before its use as a storage facility, it claimed the lives of many Picton residents. One such resident Emily Bollard is believed to haunt the tunnels to this day after her tragic death in 1916. Emily left home late one night. Wandering around town, she headed towards the tunnel. Upon entering the mouth of the tunnel she was struck by a train and killed, whether her death was a planned suicide or a tragic accident is still a mystery, but since that night so many years ago Emily has “appeared” to many residents deep within the stone walls of the tunnel. Residents and visitors report a flowing figure of a woman with no face. Ghostly children, strange lights and sudden drops in temperature have also been reported in the tunnel.
For Students and teachers at Westall State School and Westall High School, 6 April 1966 started out like any other day. Then, suddenly, eyewitnesses say they saw three metallic discs moving quickly through the sky. They remember the strange objects landing in a paddock near the schools before taking off, never to be seen again. Many people now believe the “flying saucers” were silver-coloured high altitude balloons monitoring radiation levels that had gone off course.
We may never know the answer for certain – the paperwork for the launches the day before the sighting are missing.
3. WESTERN AUSTRALIA’S FAIRY CIRCLES
Image: The ‘fairy circles’ in Namibia, Michael Fay
One of nature’s greatest mysteries lies in the Australian outback. Circular barren patches, known as “fairy circles”, have been found throughout the red-soiled Pilbara region of Western Australia. Until now, these patches of bare Earth had only been seen in the Namibian desert, stretching from South Africa to Angola. The cause has long baffled scientists. Floated theories include termites nibbling at grass roots, a build-up of toxic gas and competition between plants for limited water. The discovery of the circles in Australia has allowed experts to discount some of these theories. The circles may be caused by the way plants organise themselves. If not protected by vegetation, the Australian soil is backed onto a hard crust and water struggles to penetrate the ground – meaning it flows away, leaving patches where plants cannot germinate.
4. QUEENSLAND’S MYSTERIOUS FLOATING LIGHTS

First reported in May 1918, the eerie Min Min lights have been said to reduce men to tears. Described as fluorescent hovering balls, the lights appear just above the horizon. Although sightings are rare, the mysterious outback lights attract many visitors. The mystery has lived with the town’s folk of Boulia for over a century, stimulating some rather terrifying folklore. Parents told their children to behave otherwise the Min Min lights would comeould come and steal them away, Indigenous Australians consider the lights to be spirits and locals believe that if the Min Min lights ever catch up with you, you will disappear inside them forever.

Preservation Bay near the town of Penguin was invaded by the bioluminescent phytoplankton – or “Sea Sparkle” early 2017. As the name suggests -Sea Sparkle are a type of microalgae that excrete glowing fluid as a defence mechanism. The algae will attract the predator by emitting the glowing light. Creating a distraction so they don’t have to worry about being eaten.

Although Florida politician Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera shared her alien experience with a Spanish language television nearly 8 years ago, it is only now that she is running for congress that her claims are making headlines. Her campaign was already flailing, but local political analysts believe the media attention surrounding her extraterrestrial beliefs will likely further put a damper on her political ambitions.
On October 16, 2017, the Miami Heraldwrote about Rodriguez Aguilera’s TV appearance on America TeVewhere she describe her memories of an alien encounter when she was a child. The interview was posted on America TeVe’sYouTube page in December of 2009.
According to the Miami Herald, in the interview, Rodriguez Aguilera describes being brought up into a spaceship when she was 7. She said there were round seats and the craft was controlled by quartz rocks.
The Miami Herald writes:
She said the alien beings reminded her of the famous statue in Rio de Janeiro, Christ the Redeemer, with arms outstretched.
Among the things she said she found out from the aliens:
There are 30,000 skulls — “different from humans” — in a cave in the Mediterranean island of Malta.
The world’s “energy center” is in Africa.
The Coral Castle, a limestone tourist attraction South Miami-Dade, is actually an ancient Egyptian pyramid.
“God is a universal energy.”
She also said that the aliens had mentioned Isis, though she didn’t clarify if they meant the terrorist organization or the ancient Egyptian goddess.
The Miami Herald asked Rodriguez Aguilera for a comment on the video, and while Rodriguez Aguilera did not deny her claims, she did not address them directly. Instead, she tried to argue that her claims might not be as unusual as they are being made out to be.
Rodriguez Aguilera told the Miami Herald:
For years people, including Presidents like Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter and astronauts have publicly claimed to have seen unidentified flying objects and scientists like Stephen Hawking and institutions like the Vatican have stated that there are billions of galaxies in the universe and we are probably not alone. I personally am a Christian and have a strong belief in God, I join the majority of Americans who believe that there must be intelligent life in the billions of planets and galaxies in the universe.
She is not wrong. Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter and astronauts have claimed to see UFOs. While Reagan and Carter did not ever claim to believe they were extraterrestrial, Carter did promised to look into the matter when he became president. According to a “UFO Fact Sheet” by the U.S. Department of Defense, in 1977 Carter asked NASA to look into creating a UFO investigation, but they decided nothing could be gained by such a pursuit, and, with the backing of the U.S. Air Force, declined Carter’s request.
Famous astronaut Gordon Cooper, one of the first men in space, saw UFOs and believed them to be extraterrestrial. Astronaut Edgar Mitchell, who had never seen a UFO, also believed we were being visited by advanced extraterrestrial civilizations.
And while many believe Rodriguez Aguilera’s political hopes are in jeopardy, there has been at least one successful politician who believed he had been abducted by aliens. Furthermore, the alien messages were not so different.

Kirsan Ilyumzhinov was the president of the republic of Kalmikya in the Russian Federation from 1993 to 2010. He is also the current president of the International Chess Federation, and a personal friend to Putin. He also claims to have friends from other planets.
Ilyumzhinov claims that in 1997 he was abducted from his apartment in Moscow by aliens. He says they took him on a trip with them while they went to go pick up supplies. Ilyumzhinov says he then remembered he had to be back on Earth for an appointment, and the aliens told him it was no problem and brought him back. According to Ilyumzhinov, the aliens just wanted him to know they were out there and they were just like humans. They did not want us to fear them.
Kirsan Ilyumzhinov
Despite his claims, which have been used against him by political opponents and the famous chess master Gary Kasparov, he continues to flourish as a successful businessman. His business dealings have gotten him in trouble with the U.S. and has put his chess federation presidency in jeopardy, but talking with aliens, no problem.
So, is there hope for Rodriguez Aguilera? Miami attorney Rick Yabor doesn’t think so. He is a political commentator and thinks this recent notoriety will not help her cause. He also says there are much more popular opponents running for the office.
“Being a politician, to come out and say that, it’s odd,” Yabor told the Miami Herald. “She got into details that are not very mainstream. Someone who’s running for Congress — you’ve got to raise a lot of money. A donor might have second thoughts. ”
“Miami politics are unusual,” Yabor said. “This one takes it to a new level.”
Despite Yabor’s pessimism, the story I think the media is missing is just how many people believe they have been abducted by aliens. Every week I hear from people making these claims, and some researchers estimate there may be millions who feel they have had such an experience. Many of these researchers have talked with thousands of people themselves. Although to most it may seem odd, Rodriguez Aguilera is certainly not alone in her belief that she has had an extraterrestrial experience.
Scientific study of UFOs to be focus of new organization
Scientific study of UFOs to be focus of new organization
An organization of scientists, former military and law enforcement officials and other professionals hope to bring science to bear in the search for answers to the UFO mystery.
October 27, 2017 – The Scientific Coalition for Ufology (SCU) is formally launching today, and hopes to bring the discipline and rigor of scientific analysis to the study of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), also known as Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs). A group of scientists, former military and law enforcement officials and other professionals, many of whom have decades of experience looking into UAPs, believe there are many unanswered questions, and that a serious examination is warranted.
“SCU is composed of serious, dedicated, researchers who do not merely gloss over this subject, but rather they dive into it, investigate it broadly, remain objective and apply the scientific method and its principles to the study,” explained SCU board member Rich Hoffman. “We seek to have formal peer reviewed works being printed in journals, not tabloids.”
Hoffman is an IT professional and a senior engineer at U.S. Army Materiel Command. He has been researching UAPs since 1964.
Fellow board member Robert Powell explains why he feels an organization such as the SCU is necessary: “It is important that there exists a scientific organization that examines the UFO phenomenon in a scientific and open minded manner. There is too much silliness associated with this topic when the core reality of the phenomenon has potentially real implications for society. An organization that can be trusted to provide the media with an impartial and scientific view of the phenomenon is needed.”

Powell is retired from a career as a research and development lab and engineering manager. For several years he served as the director of research and chair of the scientific board for an international volunteer UFO research organization.
Powell adds, “Ultimately we want to determine whether intelligent life exists elsewhere and whether it has visited our planet. We want scientists and investigators involved with our organization in as many varied fields as possible to affiliate with us in a common objective to scientifically study the UFO phenomenon.”
The SCU was first brought together as an impromptu group of researchers organized to examine a mysterious video captured by Homeland Security over Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. The group spent months looking into the technical aspects of the video and researching its provenance. In the end, it remains a controversial case, and one which the group could not solve. The video and the 162-page analysis of the case can be found at the SCU website, ExploreSCU.org.
They continue to examine this case, and felt it would be helpful to bring in more professionals to put the same level of scrutiny to bear on other UFO cases, and to facilitate peer review of research papers on the topic.
“Our hope is that other scientists and professionals who also have a desire that may be developing, or has laid dormant, will connect with us, become an affiliate, and lend us their intellect and their interest in finding the best approach to the scientific study of this phenomenon,” says Hoffman. “Our desire is to build a worldwide coalition that will give us the answers we have long been seeking. What is the nature of the phenomena we call UFOs?”
A still image from the video captured over Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.
Headlines have been ablaze lately with the news of the creation of a similar effort by rocker Tom DeLonge, formerly of the band Blink-182. The SCU has already made inroads with that organization and others around the world in an effort to coalesce serious research of UAPs.
As for what sets the SCU apart from other organizations, board member Alejandro Rojas says, “Although we do not have a rock star in our group, the SCU is made-up of rock stars in the UFO research field.”
Besides reaching out to DeLonge’s To The Stars Academy, the SCU has created relationships with other credible organizations, including the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS), which was created by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, consultant to the U.S. Air Force’s official UFO studies from 1947 to 1969.
“Our team of scientists and professionals is growing,” says Hoffman. “We believe that the minds we bring together can help us solve the mystery. We have already put to use the team approach to study the Aguadilla, Puerto Rico case and are applying this in our study of a luminous phenomenon in Cloverdale, Alabama. It is through the reach-back to qualified scientists and professionals that we aim to do a better job of actually studying this phenomenon scientifically.”
