ALIENS ARE ACTUALLY IMMORTAL ROBOTS, AND THEY’RE BILLIONS OF YEARS OLD, SCIENTIST CLAIMS
ALIENS ARE ACTUALLY IMMORTAL ROBOTS, AND THEY’RE BILLIONS OF YEARS OLD, SCIENTIST CLAIMS

Sorry, UFO fans, aliens are probably not almond-eyed, elf-like creatures with an unfathomable obsession with sticking probes up people’s bums.
Instead, they’re much more like to be robots – robots so old it’s difficult to even imagine, according to the Daily Galaxy.
Susan Schneider of the University of Connecticut and the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton says that alien AI may already be out there, and could be billions of years old.
Schneider says, ‘I do not believe that most advanced alien civilizations will be biological. The most sophisticated civilizations will be postbiological, forms of artificial intelligence or alien superintelligence.’
Schneider said in a Daily Galaxy report, ‘all lines of evidence converge on the conclusion that the maximum age of extraterrestrial intelligence would be billions of years, specifically ranges from 1.7 billion to 8 billion years.’
Many researchers believe that the first aliens we encounter will be robots.
Many scientists believe that the period from the discovery of radio waves, to organisms turning themselves into immortal robots will be relatively brief.
For instance, Google’s Ray Kurzweil has predicted that man will merge with machine here on Earth in the year 2050.
The upshot of this is that it’s far, far more likely that we’ll meet aliens after they’ve turned into machines, according to experts.
Seth Shostak of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence says, ‘Consider the fact that any signal we pick up has to come from a civilization at least as advanced as we are.
‘Now, let’s say, conservatively, the average civilization will use radio for 10,000 years. From a purely probabilistic point of view, the chance of encountering a society far older than ourselves is quite high.’

This video will blow your mind: the Giant Megaliths of Russia
This video will blow your mind: the Giant Megaliths of Russia
This incredible video presents some of the most incredible yet mysterious structures that have been found in all corners of Russia. According to the author of the video, these huge megaliths that strangely resemble construction methods used in sites like Puma Punku, Teotihuacan, and Tiahuanaco, could not have been the result of ancient mankind.
No matter what the numbers were in the past, the author of the video suggests that these mysterious megalithic sites in Russia are the ultimate and most compelling evidence that proves giant Beings inhabited the world in the distant past.
The author suggests that much before the biblical flood, thousands of years earlier, giant beings inhabited all corners on our planet, and stories about these giant beings can be found in cultures around the globe. No matter where we go and at what ancient culture we look at, it seems that ‘Ancient Giant Beings’ were present on Earth before ‘ancient history,’ a time that corresponds to a period in the long history of planet Earth, where, according to mainstream scholars civilizations and mankind were totally undeveloped and perhaps, didn’t even exist.
However, videos like this clearly show that these ancient megalithic sites were somehow built, yet no one has been able to fully explain why, how and how long, these incredible structures defy history and everything we know about early civilizations and beings inhabiting our planet.
Genesis: 6:2: That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
Genesis: 6:4: There were Giants (in Hebrew bible Nephilim) in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. Is it possible that just as ancient texts tell us, in the distant past, beings unlike any we see today, were present on the surface of Earth, and that some of the huge, megalithic sites were erected by them in the distant past?
The video:
Is it possible that the Megalithic site of Gornaya Shoria in Russia, is just one of the many sites in Russia where ancient beings inhabiting Earth in the distant past, managed to erect some of the biggest blocks of stone ever seen on our planet? What if all these myths and tales are more than that? And what if, as unlikely as it may seem to many people, giant beings, belonging to a completely different species, inhabited the Earth, before ordinary humans become the predominant species on the planet.
If you consider just for a moment the possibility, however unlikely, that giants existed on Earth, than we could explain how ancient megalithic monuments were erected tens of thousands of years ago, and the sites seen in this video might just be a compilation of the largest megalithic sites in Russia, constructed by the ‘alleged’ giants, many ancient cultures speak of.
Voor de eerste keer ooit is er een komeet ontdekt die niet afkomstig is uit ons eigen zonnestelsel.
Men noemt dit een interstellaire komeet omdat de wetenschappers geen flauw benul hebben welk object hier met een snelheid van 26 kilometer per seconde door de ruimte reist.
Objecten die ontdekt worden in de ruimte krijgen altijd een eigen unieke aanduiding met daarin verwerkt meestal ook het jaar waarin ze zijn ontdekt.
Een dergelijk object is C/2017 U1. Het werd afgelopen september ontdekt door astronomen met de PannSTARRS1 telescoop op Hawaï.
Het vreemde is dat niemand eigenlijk precies wat voor object het is. In eerste instantie werd het een komeet genoemd, maar omdat het niet een soort omloopbaan om de zon heeft zoals gebruikelijk bij kometen begon men te twijfelen of het wel een komeet was. Wel heeft men vast kunnen stellen dat het object een doorsnede heeft van ongeveer 160 meter en reist met een snelheid van 26 kilometer per seconde.
Wat dit object vooral bijzonder maakt, is dat het schijnt te komen van buiten ons zonnestelsel en daardoor een vreemde omloopbaan heeft. In het volgende plaatje wordt object c/2017 U1 weergegeven als geel en ter vergelijking zijn de groene fictieve omloopbanen van kometen. Dit om duidelijk te maken in hoeverre die omloopbaan van C/2017 afwijkt.
Nog nooit hebben wij op aarde een wat men nu noemt interstellaire komeet meegemaakt. Een komeet afkomstig uit een ander zonnestelsel dan de onze. Was dit waar Ferrada al over sprak en wat hij cometa planeta noemde, of mogelijk iets wat bij dit fenomeen hoort?
Hoe verwarrend dit alles is voor de wetenschappers, wordt duidelijk als je leest wat de Wikipedia weet te vermelden over dit object:
Op 14 oktober passeerde het object onze zon en is nu weer op weg om te verdwijnen in de ruimte. C/2017 U1 werd in 2017 ontdekt met de STARRS1-telescoop op het Hawaiiaanse eiland Maui. Het zou mogelijk een donker rotsblok met een middellijn van zo'n 150 meter betreffen. Vermoed wordt dat het object afkomstig is uit de richting van het sterrenbeeld Lier, meer bepaald uit de omgeving van de ster Wega alwaar een zonnestelsel-in-wording is ontdekt. Dat het rotsblok ook daadwerkelijk van de omgeving van Wega afkomstig is wordt uiterst onwaarschijnlijk geacht, aangezien dit rotsblok ongeveer 300.000 jaar over de tocht naar ons zonnestelsel moet hebben gedaan, en toen stond Wega ergens anders aan de hemel.
Dit is interessant, want alles wijst er op dat er momenteel een ‘exotisch’ object door ons zonnestelsel reist. Helaas kunnen we het object niet van dichtbij bekijken, want de exokomeet verlaat momenteel het zonnestelsel en heeft een hoge snelheid.
We hebben iets dat nog nooit eerder op aarde is gezien en we noemen het een rotsblok. Een veel logischere verklaring zou uiteraard zijn dat het hier gaat om een intelligent bestuurd ruimtevaartuig van een andere ster, zoals misschien Wega.
Die zullen dan echt geen 300.000 jaar over die tocht hebben gedaan, maar waarschijnlijk gebruikt hebben gemaakt een dimensieportaal om heel snel naar dit deel van ons zonnestelsel te reizen.
Wij schrijven al jaren over de grote UFO's die regelmatig bij de zon worden waargenomen en ter illustratie daarvan een deel uit een artikel van eind vorig jaar:
Ongeveer tien jaar geleden verklaarden twee Russische wetenschappers dat ze hadden ontdekt dat er op ieder gegeven moment zich honderden UFO’s ophouden in de buurt van onze zon.
Dat niet alleen, maar ook dat ze hun snelheid kunnen verhogen of verlagen zonder aanwijsbare reden en dat ze een rechthoekige draai kunnen maken met onvoorstelbare snelheden, iets dat voor een normaal ruimteschip onmogelijk zou zijn. Zeker voor de waargenomen ruimteschepen die minstens zo groot zijn als onze maan.
Door de jaren heen zijn er telkens nieuwe waarnemingen geweest, waarbij het lijkt alsof deze enorme UFO’s energie uit de zon tanken.
Nu duikt er weer een opname op van een UFO die als het ware lijkt weg te schieten van de zon.
De bekende Youtube gebruiker Streetcap1 zegt dat hij eigenlijk niet gelooft in de UFO/zon plasma/energie theorie, maar dat deze beelden hem toch aan het denken hebben gezet.
Op ieder gewenst moment van de dag is er eigenlijk wel wat te zien rondom de zon op de SOHO beelden van NASA.
Het volgende voorbeeld is gemaakt door Scott Waring van Ufo Sightings Daily voor wie iedere pixelafwijking in het beeld een UFO is, maar waar ook inderdaad recht boven de zon en rechtsonder vreemde objecten zijn te zien.
Er wordt op dit moment veel gesproken over een mogelijke nep buitenaardse invasie op aarde. Een soort holografisch spel door de elite, waarbij het lijkt alsof er een buitenaardse invasiemacht naar de aarde is gekomen om ons te koloniseren. Het idee erachter is dan om de al zo lang gewenste wereldregering te activeren, waarbij de mensheid als één geheel weerstand zal bieden tegen de indringers.
Echter, de activiteiten van vreemde objecten in de buurt van de zon heeft naar alle waarschijnlijkheid niets te maken met iets dat door mensenhanden is gemaakt, maar alles met buitenaardse beschavingen.
En dan een onbekend object op een route (omloopbaan) die nog niet eerder is waargenomen, waarbij wetenschappers met de mond vol tanden staan en geen antwoorden hebben.
Noem het maar een interstellaire komeet; wij noemen het een ruimteschip.

Amerikaan verkoopt ranch vanwege aanvallen door ‘greys’. Bevinden zich hier poorten naar andere dimensies?
Amerikaan verkoopt ranch vanwege aanvallen door ‘greys’. Bevinden zich hier poorten naar andere dimensies?
John Edmonds uit Rainbow Valley in Arizona verkoopt zijn paardenranch omdat hij naar eigen zeggen niet meer tegen de constante paranormale activiteit kan.
De ranch is al meerdere keren op tv en in het nieuws geweest omdat er naar verluidt aliens op bezoek komen.
Zo vertelde Edmonds tijdens een aflevering van Ghost Adventures dat hij een buitenaards voorwerp had gevonden en is bezocht door de echte Men in Black.
Vreemde gebeurtenissen
Hij claimt dat hij al 19 aliens heeft gedood en dat de wezens meerdere keren zouden hebben geprobeerd om hem en zijn vrouw te ontvoeren.
“Ze leviteerden haar uit bed en droegen haar naar de parkeerplaats en probeerden haar mee te nemen in het ruimteschip,” vertelde hij aan de lokale zender KPNX.
Het stel kocht de ranch in 1995, maar vrijwel gelijk deden zich er vreemde gebeurtenissen voor.
Greys
Op zijn Facebookpagina plaatst Edmonds geregeld berichten over zijn ervaringen. Onder een foto met daarop een katana beschrijft hij hoe hij de ‘greys’ doodmaakt.
Hij legt uit dat je het hoofd eraf moet hakken omdat ze anders gemakkelijk kunnen ontkomen. Zelfs met een vlijmscherp zwaard is het vrijwel onmogelijk om ze in één keer te onthoofden, schreef hij.
Makelaar Kimberley Gero zei dat sommige potentiële kopers geen problemen hebben met de geschiedenis van de ranch, terwijl anderen doodsbang zijn dat er iets gaat gebeuren.
Het huis beschikt over vijf slaapkamers, vier badkamers, een groot zwembad en… twee poorten die volgens Edmonds naar andere dimensies leiden, meldt zender KHQ.
WATCH: John Edmonds claims he contends with paranormal activity regularly at the Stardust Ranch. But now, he's fed up with it and wants to sell his property.
The Stardust Ranch in Rainbow Valley, Ariz. has been featured multiple times in television shows and international mediafor its purported alien activity. Edmonds and his wife Joyce say they’re fed up with interstellar interference.
Edmonds claims he has slain 19 aliens with samurai swords and he and his wife have endured abduction attempts.
“They actually levitated her out of the bed in the master chamber and carried her into the parking lot and tried to draw her up into the craft,” he told NBC-affiliate KPNX.
The couple purchased the ranch in 1995 with the hopes of leading a peaceful life operating their horse rescue organization.
“Almost immediately from the day we moved in, we began to have strange experiences,” he said.
On his Facebook page, Edmonds regularly updates his friends and fans of the day-to-day experiences of living on the so-called Alien Ranch.
Under one image of what appears to be dried blood and a katana, he described the method of destroying the “greys.”
“Unless you cut the head off and disconnect the antennae, so to speak, they instantly ‘phone home.’ Even with a razor-sharp sword, it is nearly impossible to decapitate them with one swing,” he wrote.
Realtor Kimberly Gero said the reaction from interested buyers has been mixed.
“Some are very intrigued and have no issues with the history of the property, while others are absolutely scared to death about what may or may not happen to them if they should buy it,” she said.
In addition to its paranormal features, the property boasts a ranch house with five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a large diving pool.
Edmonds warns prospective buyers to be prepared to live on the ranch.
“It’s not something for a traditional family, but it holds a lot of secrets and what I believe are future opportunities to understand forces that are in the universe,” he said. “Please be very well grounded because the energy here has the tendency to manifest with whatever is going on with you.”
Net zoals er rondom de Yellowstone supervulkaan in Amerika onlangs ongekend veel aardbevingen werden geregistreerd, is dat nu ook het geval rond de vulkanen op La Palma, één van de Canarische Eilanden.
Er zijn met spoed experts naartoe gevlogen om metingen te verrichten en de situatie 24 uur per dag te observeren.
Hoelang zal het nog duren voordat het eindelijk bij de mensheid inzinkt dat er ongewone dingen op aarde gebeuren waarvoor niemand een zinnige verklaring kan bedenken? Het enige dat je daarvoor hoeft te doen, is wat wij al jaren doen, het bijhouden van ongewone en heftige aardveranderingen.
Het probleem daarbij is dat dit soort dingen wel wordt gerapporteerd, maar dat er nooit enig verband wordt gelegd tussen al die afzonderlijke gebeurtenissen.
Zo schreven wij enkele weken geleden over de dreiging van de Yellowstone supervulkaan die opeens veel groter blijkt te zijn dan oorspronkelijk werd gedacht.
De afgelopen jaren is het publiek regelmatig in slaap gesust door de Amerikaanse Geological Survey (USGS), die verzekerde dat ondanks dat er zich steeds vaker series kleine aardbevingen voordeden rondom het gebied van de Yellowstone Supervulkaan, dit helemaal niets was om ons zorgen over te maken.
Een supervulkaan die, wanneer deze wel tot uitbarsting zou komen, zal zorgen voor mogelijk honderdduizenden dodelijke slachtoffers.
Sinds ongeveer het midden van de maand juli van dit jaar hebben zich in het Yellowstone gebied ongeveer 2.500 kleine aardbevingen voorgedaan, het hoogste aantal in een serie ooit. De aarde onder de vulkaan is aan het verschuiven en dit kan betekenen dat er magma is gaan stromen naar de belangrijkste magmakamer.
Dit proces dat leidt naar een uitbarsting had volgens eerdere voorspellingen van de geologen van de USGS nog duizenden jaren moeten duren.
De wereld reageert niet op dat bericht, neemt het voor kennisgeving aan, als ze het al lezen, en gaan verder met echt belangrijke zaken zoals de nieuwe serie Pose die de grootste transgendercast ooit zal tellen.
Niemand die ook kijkt naar een bericht over plotselinge paniek op de Canarische Eilanden waar ook vulkanen zijn en honderden kleine aardbevingen worden geregistreerd. Men heeft in sneltreinvaart een aantal experts daar naartoe gehaald.
De reden is dat een dergelijke situatie snel kan omslaan en men de experts ter plekke tests wil laten uitvoeren op het eiland La Palma om zo misschien vast te kunnen stellen waarom en welke actieve vulkaan daar op het punt staat om uit te barsten.
De Cumbre Vieja is een actieve vulkanengroep op het zuidelijk deel van het Canarische Eiland La Palma. De keten is 18 km lang en telt ongeveer 120 dicht bij elkaar gelegen vulkanen met als hoogste de Deseada, 1.945 m. De Cumbre Vieja sluit in het noorden aan op de oudere en lager gelegen Cumbre Nueva. In het zuiden loopt de bergketen langzaam af en eindigt in de uiterste zuidpunt van La Palma, bij Punta de Fuencaliente.
Op La Palma hetzelfde verhaal als bij de Yellowstone supervulkaan. Door de ongekend hoeveelheid aardbevingen wordt het magma naar boven gestuwd en is de kans op een vulkaanuitbarsting ineens vele malen groter geworden. Het enige dat wetenschappers nu kunnen doen, is de verschillende variabelen meten om zo misschien te kunnen bepalen hoe dichtbij die uitbarsting is.
Ook hier weer dezelfde geruststellende woorden zoals altijd: Volgens lokale wetenschappers is dit dan wel de grootste serie aardbevingen die zijn voorgekomen sinds men dit begon bij te houden, maar deze zogenaamde "seismic swarms" zijn absoluut niets ongewoons.
Dat is het patroon dat we iedere keer weer opnieuw zien. Ieder keer is wat er gebeurt de meest heftige, de nog nooit eerder voorgekomen, de grootste, de hoogste enzovoort. En iedere keer worden er geruststellende woorden gesproken en is er niemand die een verband legt tussen bepaalde gebeurtenissen, behalve een enkeling in de alternatieve media en die ziet spoken.
Overal ter wereld worden vulkanen wakker en/of komen tot uitbarsting.
Zoals de Sinabung vulkaan in Indonesië die afgelopen dinsdag zelf twee keer tot een uitbarsting kwam, waarbij as en puin kilometers hoog de lucht in werden gespuwd.
Even terug naar een artikel dat we onlangs schreven naar aanleiding van een verklaring van NASA:
En nu komt er dus een mededeling van NASA dat er niet alleen een soort superaarde moet zijn met een gewicht tien keer dat van onze aarde, maar ook dat deze zo'n krachtige invloed heeft dat het ons complete zonnestelsel heeft laten kantelen.
In een verklaring zegt NASA het volgende: "Het kan rondhangen aan de verre uiteinden van ons zonnestelsel en zich in het donker verborgen houden, maar toch subtiel in de achtergrond aan de touwtjes trekken: de omloopbanen van de buitenste planeten langer maken en zelfs het laten kantelen van het zonnestelsel naar één kant".
En verder: "De tekenen zijn tot nu indirect, het betreft vooral een zwaartekracht voetafdruk, maar alles met elkaar telt het toch op tot een overtuigende zaak".
Wanneer er krachten aan het werk zijn die ons zonnestelsel kunnen laten kantelen, is het dan niet logisch dat ze ook verantwoordelijk kunnen zijn voor ontwakende en steeds actiever wordende vulkanen?
Incredible footage of high speed UFO that appears to ignite other objects in space near Saturn
Incredible footage of high speed UFO that appears to ignite other objects in space near Saturn
Sky observer DiversityJ captured a very rare, incredibly fast sequence of events on the evening of October 26, 2017 at 7:32pm while recording Saturn in the west sky.
A nearly transparent ultra high speed UFO that seems to defy basic laws of motion, from the viewers’ perspective it traveled directly across the surface of Saturn in the lower Western sky, causing wave distortion, actually distorting the light of Saturn.
In 1 1/4 second (75 frames), there was a bright UFO that shot up from below Saturn, lit up a second object with an orange glow, then after the UFO passed Saturn it appeared to trigger another burst of light (third object) before going out of frame.
If you look closely you can see the UFO turns from light orange to white as it seems to become one with the bright white flash of light.
DiversityJ states: Now, I didn't see this when out filming. Had a heck of a time getting the camera to find Saturn, and then manually trying to focus, waiting for the noisy atv's to quiet down. But as Saturn got lower in frame and I tried to adjust, I lost it and couldn't find it again during this take. A few minutes later I eventually got both the Moon and Saturn.
Anyway, on that first take, I was staring at the monitor with my magnifying glass glancing up and back down the whole time. I didn't see any lights or airplanes. It wasn't until going in and watching the footage on the computer that I saw the event, lasted less than 2 seconds!

This very fascinating sequence of events in space observed from NE Ohio that would have never been noticed if it weren't for the great camera work and intuition of DiversityJ to have the camera recording just at the right time.
The image shows the liquid left over from ancient ocean on dwarf planet Ceres.
NASA
NASA' Dawn mission has helped in detecting proof about residual liquid on dwarf planet Ceres. The leftover liquid belongs to the ancient global ocean that existed on the planet.
The crust of the dwarf planet comprises ice, salts and materials belonging to geological activities which took place in the past.
The layer beneath the rigid surface of Ceres is found to be easily deformable and soft due to the residual liquid.
"More and more, we are learning that Ceres is a complex, dynamic world that may have hosted a lot of liquid water in the past, and may still have some underground," said Julie Castillo-Rogez, Dawn project scientist based at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California.
A group of astronomers led by Anton Ermakov, a postdoctoral researcher at JPL, had used the measurements of shape and gravity to determine the composition and internal structure of Ceres. The finding reveals that this dwarf planet is geologically active or was in the recent past.
Three craters named Occator, Kerwan and Yalode and a solitary tall mountain present n the crater, Ahuna Mons, are linked with "gravity anomalies".
"Ceres has an abundance of gravity anomalies associated with outstanding geologic features," Ermakov said. In the cases of Ahuna Mons and Occator, the anomalies can be used to better understand the origin of these features, which are believed to be different expressions of cryovolcanism.
This animation shows dwarf planet Ceres as seen by NASA's Dawn. The map overlaid at right gives scientists hints about Ceres' internal structure from gravity measurements.NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
The models of Ceres created by the scientists show discrepancies. The analysis of these four locations done by the Dawn probe is about the subsurface structures.
Astronomers led by Roger Fu at Harvard University, US, studied the composition and strength of the dwarf planet's crust and deeper interior by analysing its topography. The researchers found that the crust of the dwarf planet comprised ice, salts, rock and an additional component, which was believed to be clathrate hydrate — which is a cage of water molecules, surrounding a gas molecule.
Clathrate hydrate's structure is found to be 100 to 1,000 times stronger than water ice, while having almost the same density.
It's believed by the researchers that the surface features of Ceres were more well-defined once, but they have smoothened over time. A very strong crust resting on a more deformable layer which contains a small amount of liquid is required for this sort of flattening of mountains and valleys, according to Fu and his team of astronomers.µ
"Levitating" Sands Could Be the Key to Landscape Formation on Mars
"Levitating" Sands Could Be the Key to Landscape Formation on Mars
A unique geologic process, made possible by Mars's thin atmosphere, could be the key to understanding dune formations on the Red Planet.
Despite being the best planet for future colonization efforts, Mars is a very different world than Earth. Temperatures average about −55 degrees Celsius (−67° F) on the Red Planet, and can range from about −153 degrees C (−243° F) at the poles to 20 degrees C (68° F) near the equator at high noon. Even more alien, the atmosphere on Mars is a little less than one percent the thickness of Earth's atmosphere, which results in some unique chemical processes. For example, water ice will sublimate rather than melt on the surface, changing directly from a solid into vapor despite the frigid temperatures.
New research suggests the unique conditions on Mars can produce a "levitating" effect on martian sands and dust, a factor that must be accounted for when studying dune formation and other geological processes on the Red Planet. The study, published this morning in Nature Communications, builds off previous research that suggests liquid water flows underground on Mars today, as evidenced by dark streaks of briny water that appear seasonally in martian dunes. When small amounts of this water reach the surface and are exposed to the atmosphere, they sublimate immediately into a gas, or perhaps exist very briefly as liquid water before boiling into vapor. This boiling process can levitate sands and carry them across the surface, especially down a slope.
"It is possible that water 'trapped' underneath sediment cover could be liquid on Mars in small amounts," Jan Raack, lead author and a research fellow at The Open University, told Popular Mechanics in an email. "Overlaying sediment would protect water to sublimate, and when it would come into contact with the thin atmosphere, it would boil and cause the effect of levitation and saltation we have observed in our experiments."
The exact formation processes of martian hills and dunes is still somewhat of a mystery for planetary geologists. The sands of Mars do not behave like the sands of the Sahara. The reduced gravity on Mars, only 3.7 m/s² compared to 9.8 m/s² on Earth, is partially responsible for the unique geologic processes, but scientists haven't been able to explain the entire picture just by accounting for the weaker gravity. Raack believes the levitating process he reproduced in the lab could be a missing piece to the puzzle.
"If liquid water (maybe groundwater or rapid ice melt or liquid brines) comes into contact with a relatively warm martian surface (around 5° C), then the effect of levitation will be possible which enhances the amount of transported sediment down a slope massively," says Raack.
The levitating sands on Mars may seem like a minor addition, just a new variable in the geologic models that simulate dune formation, but understanding the geology on Mars is vital to any human exploration efforts. Where is the water on Mars, and how could we access it? What challenges do engineers face when designing the foundation of a structure on Mars? Do the shifting sands of the Red Planet hide microbes beneath, sustaining off the thick briny water underground?
If Raack's levitating sands model is correct, it could help scientists tackle these fundamental questions about our neighbor planet.
Reports of spectacular UFO - a giant glowing ball lighting the sky - in Siberia
Reports of spectacular UFO - a giant glowing ball lighting the sky - in Siberia
Fears from locals of 'aliens arriving', but there is a surprising explanation and, yes, there was an unusual object in the sky.
'But gradually the ball began to expand, it became clear that this is not some radiance ... and it became scary ...' Picture: Alexey Yakovlev
The illuminated ball looming over the forest was seen clearly in the town of Salekhard right on the Arctic Circle, but was also visible over a swathe of northern Siberia in the night sky.
Residents from Yamalo-Nenets region reported 'shivers down their spines' and the social media went alive with claims of aliens arriving in an awesome UFO.
'The glowing ball rose from behind the trees and moved in my direction.'
Pictures: Sergey Anisimov
The extraordinary sight was captured by leading Siberian photographer Sergey Anisimov who admitted: 'At first I was taken aback for a few minutes, not understanding what was happening.
'The glowing ball rose from behind the trees and moved in my direction.
'My first thought was about the most powerful searchlight, but the speed of changing everything around changed the idea of what was happening.
'This is such a vision!'
Pictures: Alexey Yakovlev
'The ball began to turn into an arc and gradually dissipated.'
After the multi-coloured light show was over he went home.
'Kids (5-6 years old) walking in the yard emotionally began to tell me about an unusual phenomenon, using the words 'aliens', 'the portal to another dimension' and the like....'
This was the launch of a Topol-M intercontinental ballistic missile from Plesetsk cosmodrome aimed at the Kura testing range in Kamchatka on the country's Pacific coast.
Picture: The Siberian Times
Another photographer Alexey Yakovlev spotted the spectacle at Strezhevoi, in the north of Tomsk region, some 840 kilometres away.
'And at first I thought - it is such a radiance of such an unusual form - round in shape.
'But gradually the ball began to expand, it became clear that this is not some radiance ... and it became scary ...

Another local Nurgazy Taabaldiev said: 'It's a gap in the space-time continuum.'
In fact the reason photographers were out watching the sky was an amazing show of northern lights - or Aurora Borealis - but there was an extra dimension too.
This was the launch of a Topol-M intercontinental ballistic missile from Plesetsk cosmodrome aimed at the Kura testing range in Kamchatka on the country's Pacific coast.
The launch was one of several last night in exercises by the Russian strategic nuclear forces, as confirmed by the Russian defence ministry.
It was the the trace of the Topol rocket - capable of carrying nuclear missiles - that caused this extraordinary phenomenon in the sky.
As photographer Yakovlev posted accurately: 'It seems I accidentally shoot the launch of a secret space rocket from Plesetsk'.
A massive, glowing bubble of light erupted in the night sky above northeastern Siberia sometime last night (Oct. 26/27), The Siberian Times has reported.
Multiple witnesses reported seeing the bubble, according to the publication, and at least five people captured images of the phenomenon.
While many people quoted by the news site expressed concerns that the phenomenon might have something to do with aliens or "a gap in the space-time continuum," The Siberian Times suspected it was caused by a rocket launch. Now, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation (which operates the Russian armed forces) has said on Facebook that it launched a Topol-M intercontinental ballistic missile last night as part of a test exercise.
The missile was apparently launched from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in northwestern Russia toward the Kura testing range in Kamchatka, which is on Russia's western, Pacific peninsula, according to The Siberian Times and the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The Siberian Times also reports that the northern lights were expected to be particularly bright last night, which explains why some of the photographers were already watching the sky when the bubble appeared.
This is the ‘Center of the universe’ because of ONE unexplainable phenomenon

This is the ‘Center of the universe’ because of ONE unexplainable phenomenon
By now we have probably understood that our planet is full of mysterious and amazing things.
By using science, we try and explain as best as we can things that challenge our understanding of things around us.
Thousands of years ago, before critical thinking and science, took over society we used the divine and tried to explain things that we simply couldn’t understand.
The center of the universe… on Earth
The ancient Greeks marked the center of the world by placing an omphalos in the form of a sacred stone. The most famous one was located in the oracle of Delphi, indicating that from that point on, the rest of the world had been created.
Of course, other people also had their center of the world. There were those in Miletus, Sicily, Poland, Italy to name but a few.
In ancient Greece, it is known that there were at least nine or ten.
The US also has its own center of the universe, and it is located in Tulsa. Despite the fact that ‘this center of the universe’ neither has the charm nor the mystery of the ancient centers of the universe and is rather an anodyne site, it does have a peculiar characteristic, an acoustic anomaly that surprises anyone who visits it.
According to legend, a foghorn could go off in the center of the circle an, those on the outside wouldn’t hear it.
This may be an exaggeration, but a person’s voice does sound extremely distorted when heard from outside the circle.
It’s an incredible yet mysterious effect that has still not been explained.
Located at number 20 Archer Street at the junction with Boston Avenue, the ‘center of the universe’ isn’t a special place, in fact, it’s a simple circle of about 75 centimeters in diameter surrounded by another 13 rows of tiles.
It was created in the 80’s when the area was rebuilt after a fire.
When a person stands in the center of the circle, looking in any direction, making a noise, he will hear his own echo reproduced several times louder than initially spoken, while those outside the circle will not hear it.
Instead, they perceive the voice or the noise but very distorted.
The same happens if someone outside the circle speaks to another person in front of him and also outside, causing the sound to pass over the center.
No one knows that causes the effect, but there are a couple of theories.
This curious effect seems to be produced by the circular walls surrounding the ‘center of the universe’, although it has never been proven, so there are multiple theories about it.
One theory suggests that the strange phenomenon occurs due to a metal expansion joint that crosses the circle since it is located on a viaduct, which would accidentally produce this curious acoustic anomaly.
One of the greatest minds on Earth—Professor Stephen Hawking—wants mankind to colonize Earth’s moon as soon as possible, in order to ensure the existence of our species. “I am an optimist. I believe we can. One of the best ways to do this is to move out into space and explore the potential for human beings to live on other planets.”
As we have seen in the last couple of years, rising tensions among the world’s nuclear powers have made scientists think about what we can do in order to ensure the existence of our species, if a world ‘nuclear’ war would break out in the future.
With growing concern from North Korea and Middle Eastern countries, the world has never been this scared and nervous.
Tensions between Pyongyang and Washington have greatly escalated in the last couple of years, the reason why Prof Stephen Hawking has stated that we must work to ensure the existence of our species, and the first step is to colonize the Earth’s moon.
Hawking has said that comments made by North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un should be taken seriously. The North Korean leader has threatened to destroy its enemies, and escalating tensions between nuclear powers have taken ou planet one step closer to a global catastrophe provoked by man.
“I am an optimist. I believe we can. One of the best ways to do this is to move out into space and explore the potential for human beings to live on other planets.”
To ensure we as a species live on, Prof Hawking has said that we need to head to the moon, and start looking for another planet if we are to survive a catastrophic event—like World War 3.
Remeber what Einstein once said: “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”
Professor Hawking has urged leading nations in space exploration to push the lm it’s with our space programs—and work collectively—and send astronauts to the surface of the moon in the next couple of years.
Speaking at the Yalta European Strategy forum, Prof Hawking said that we have already landed on the moon, and it could become our cosmic base to explore, and eventually colonize other worlds.
We have all that we need to go to the moon. Recently, scientists have also discovered ice deposits on the moon’s north pole, a very important discovery that could help astronauts survive on the moon.
Furthermore, Prof Hawking said that while leaving our planet will not solve all of our problems, it will give the human race a new perspective.
“Leaving earth will give us a new perspective. It would also unite us to face a common challenge,” concluded Prof Hawking.
Enormous glowing ball is seen over northern Siberia after fuel from four Russian rockets tested overnight created an illusion in the sky (but locals thought it could be a UFO)
Enormous glowing ball is seen over northern Siberia after fuel from four Russian rockets tested overnight created an illusion in the sky (but locals thought it could be a UFO)
Russian media has suggested two possible causes, the Northern lights or a Russian rocket test
It is likely the trace of rockets which were launched by the Russian military around the time
Similar light was seen in the skies over Norway in December 2009, which was caused by a failed missile
The peculiar spiral shaped light pattern was created from reflection of the sun in the leaking fuel
Russia has been hit by a wave of reports of a giant UFO in the sky last night with spectacular pictures of an enormous glowing ball illuminating northern Siberia.
Social media erupted with claims of 'aliens arriving' and locals in far flung parts of the country told of 'shivers down their spines'.
While the source of the light has not been confirmed, some have suggested that it was the trace of four rockets launched by the Russian military that caused this extraordinary phenomenon in the night sky.
A similar light was seen in the skies over Norway in December 2009, which was caused by a failed missile. During that incident, the peculiar spiral shaped light pattern was created from reflection of the sun in the leaking fuel.

Russia has been hit by a wave of reports of a giant UFO in the sky last night with spectacular pictures of an enormous glowing ball illuminating northern Siberia
HOW COULD A MISSILE TEST CREATE THE LIGHT?
Vladmir Putin oversaw the launch of four nuclear-capable ballistic missiles as part of a training exercise for Russia's strategic nuclear forces last night.
The ministry said a Topol ballistic missile had been test fired from the Plesetsk cosmodrome in northern Russia, hitting a target at the Kura military testing range on the Kamchatka Peninsula thousands of kilometres (miles) away.
It was the the trace of one of these rocket - capable of carrying nuclear missiles - that caused this extraordinary phenomenon in the night sky, say the Russian media.
A similar light was seen in the skies over Norway in December 2009, which was caused by a failed missile launch.
Speaking to Barents Observer at the time, Dr Truls Lynne Hansen, a researcher at the Tromso Geophysical Observatory, said: 'The missile has probably come out of control and exploded. 'The peculiar spiral shaped light pattern comes from reflection of the sun in the leaking fuel.'
Vasily Zubkov posted: 'I went out to smoke a cigarette and thought it was the end of the world.'
The extraordinary scenes were captured by leading Siberian photographer Sergey Anisimov in the town of Salekhard which straddles the Arctic Circle.
'I was taken aback for a few minutes, not understanding what was happening,' he said.
'The glowing ball rose from behind the trees and moved in my direction.
'My first thought was about the most powerful searchlight, but the speed of changing everything around changed the idea of what was happening.
'The ball began to turn into an arc and gradually dissipated.'
After the multi-coloured light show was over he went home to find local children as young as five in the yard babbling about 'aliens' and 'the portal to another dimension', he said.
Some 520 miles further east, another photographer Alexey Yakovlev admitted to feeling scared as he witnessed the UFO spectacle at Strezhevoi, in the north of Tomsk region, reported The Siberian Times.
'At first I thought - it is such a radiance of such an unusual form, round in shape.
'But gradually the ball began to expand, it became clear that this is not some radiance and it became scary.
'It's good that I was not alone....a group of people cannot hallucinate.'
On social media, Anastasia Boldyreva posted simply: 'Aliens arrived.'

While the source of the light remains unknown, local experts suggest there were two possible reasons for the eerie spectacle in the Siberian night sky
The lights could be seen in northern Siberia, and one photographer captured stunning images of the sight from the town of Salekhard which straddles the Arctic Circle
The were many similar messages. Nurgazy Taabaldiev claimed: 'It's a gap in the space-time continuum.'
While the source of the light has not been confirmed, not all are convinced it was a Russian rocket test.
Some local experts suggest it may have been caused by the Northern lights.
But the most common theory is that Russian strongman Vladimir Putin had chosen this moment to frighten the West with grandiose military exercises by his strategic nuclear forces.
Putin personally oversaw the launch of four nuclear-capable ballistic missiles as part of a training exercise for Russia's strategic nuclear forces, the Kremlin said on Friday, the Interfax news agency reported.
The test launches, conducted last night, involved land, air, and submarine-based ballistic missiles, Russia's defence ministry said in a separate statement.
The ministry said a Topol intercontinental ballistic missile had been test fired from the Plesetsk cosmodrome in northern Russia, hitting a target at the Kura military testing range on the Kamchatka Peninsula thousands of kilometres (miles) away.
Photographer Alexey Yakovlev admitted to feeling scared as he witnessed the UFO spectacle at Strezhevoi, in the north of Tomsk region.

After the multi-coloured light show was over, photographer Sergey Anisimov went home to find local children as young as five in the yard babbling about 'aliens' and 'the portal to another dimension', he said
The first explanation for the sight was that a vivid display of the Northern Lights - or Aurora Borealis - was underway. This is why photographers were out watching the sky when the suspected UFO appeared
+13
When the light appeared, missile tests were underway from submarines and aircraft last night, and the exercises included the launch of a super-powerful Topol rocket from Plesetsk cosmodrome, 550 miles north of Moscow
It was the likely the traces of one of these rockets - capable of carrying nuclear missiles - that caused this extraordinary phenomenon in the night sky, say the Russian media.
As photographer Mr Yakovlev accurately guessed: 'It seems I accidentally shot the launch of a secret space rocket from Plesetsk'.

NORTHERN LIGHTS
The impressive Northern Lights can sometimes be seen by people in high-altitude regions, including Sweden, Iceland and Scotland.
There are two types of auroras - Aurora Borealis (the Northern Lights), which means 'dawn of the north', and Aurora Australis, 'dawn of the south.'
The lights are created when charged particles from the sun enter Earth's atmosphere.
Usually the particles are deflected by the Earth's magnetic field, but some enter the atmosphere and collide with gas particles.
These collisions emit light in many colours, although pale green and pink are common.
Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Manual, told MailOnline: 'This looks amazing and it is not surprising the sight of it caused witnesses to think of aliens and the opening of a portal to another dimension.
'These fantastic possibilities are shot down by the prosaic explanation that this strange light phenomena was caused by the testing of an intercontinental missile.
'This seems like a poor explanation for something so spectacular but other rocket launches have caused similar spectacles.
'In particular, in December 2009 a stunning spiralling light was seen over Norway, which was caused by a failed Russian missile test.
'They may not be of an alien origin but we can certainly admire their beauty, even if they are caused by weapons of mass destruction.'
A similar light was seen in the skies over Norway in December 2009, which was caused by a failed missile launch.

Former Navy officer tells us what he saw hidden in Antarctica
Former Navy officer tells us what he saw hidden in Antarctica
A naval officer tells us what he remembers, including seeing a huge opening in the ice in a no-fly area they were crossing with a medical emergency on board. Then he ferried a group of scientists who had disappeared for two weeks and has specifically been warned not to refer again to this subject. As he put it, “they looked scared.
Antarctica has long been considered one of the most mysterious places on Earth. Therefore, it is not strange that numerous ‘conspiracy theories, claims, and accounts’ have been proposed throughout the years, trying to explain some of the many enigmatic occurrences on Earth’s most isolated continent.
For years people have claimed that Antarctica is one of the most guarded places on Earth for a good reason.
Many authors have proposed that there are many interesting things hidden beneath Antarctica that are kept away from society.
Talk about ancient civilization inhabiting Antarctica has existed for decades. What if, in the distant past, when Earth –and Antarctica— was much different than today, an ancient civilization developed there, creating fascinating structures, monuments and temples?
Would we find evidence of their existence today? Many people claim that we already have.
But why has Antarctica become a ‘center’ for conspiracy theories?
Perhaps one of the greatest reasons is because it is so isolated and you can’t just travel there as you wish. Furthermore, even though we know about Antarctica only for a little over 100 years, there are numerous ancient maps that depict parts of Antarctica free of ice.
One of the most controversial maps was without a doubt composed in 1513, by Turkish Admiral Piri Reis who drew a map that would create a global debate over 500 years after him. The map depicts Antarctica which was discovered between 1818-1820.
But how is this possible? The history of Antarctica emerges from early Western theories of a vast continent, known as Terra Australis, believed to exist in the far south of the globe. The term Antarctic, referring to the opposite of the Arctic Circle, was coined by Marinus of Tyre in the 2nd century AD.
In 1820, several expeditions claimed to have been the first to have sighted the ice shelf or the continent. Interestingly, a Russian expedition was led by Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen and Mikhail Lazarev, a British expedition was captained by Edward Bransfield and an American sealer Nathaniel Palmer participated.
The first landing was probably just over a year later when American Captain John Davis, a sealer, set foot on the ice. Norwegian Roald Amundsen finally reached the Pole on December 14, 1911, following a dramatic race with the Englishman Robert Falcon Scott.
But the above accounts are all relatively recent.
Here are ancient maps that date back over 500 years which already depict the continent, and some of them show Antarctica free of ice.
At 400-feet across, experts analyzing the image ask whether or not this ‘structure’ could be the result of Mother Nature. The unusual shape of the structure suggests it may be man-made formation.
The above image is just one of the many odd things that have been found on Antarctica and many authors and whistleblowers claim there’s more to Antarctica than we’ve ever been told.
What is referred to as a ‘truly shocking an
d astonishing video on extremely strange events in the Antarctic continent’ has recently been uploaded to YouTube, causing a social network debate about Antarctica and what’s really there.
“A naval officer tells us what he remembers, including seeing a huge opening in the ice in a no-fly area they were crossing with a medical emergency on board. Then he ferried a group of scientists who had disappeared for two weeks, and has specifically been warned not to refer again to this subject. As he put it, “they looked scared.” When they returned to McMurdo, their gear was isolated and they were flown back to Christchurch, New Zealand in a special plane. He discusses what he saw and experienced in detail. This is the most provocative story about what is going on in Antarctica ever presented anywhere.”
What do you think? Is there anything strange to Antarctica? Is Antarctica just an isolated, frozen continent? Or is there perhaps more to it, as many conspiracy theorists and whistleblowers claim?
“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.
Illustration of Cassini during its plunge into Saturn’s atmosphere.
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.”

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:
