Alien BOMBSHELL: Watch 'leaked' US Navy footage of ‘UFO that DEFIED PHYSICS’
Alien BOMBSHELL: Watch 'leaked' US Navy footage of ‘UFO that DEFIED PHYSICS’
LEAKED US Navy video footage of a bizarre UFO which "defied physics" has emerged just weeks after a former Area 51 insider told of the encounter, it is claimed.
The extraordinary UFO is said to have outmanoeuvred several F-18 pilots during the terrifying encounter, revealed by former senior US national security chief Chris Mellon, who spent time at the mysterious Area 51 military base.
US Navy personnel aboard the USS Nimitz filmed the UFO during the encounter that lasted several hours, according to Mr Mellon.
Mr Mellon served for almost 20 years in the US federal government in a series of national security positions roles under presidents Bill Clinton and George W Bush.
The ex-national security chief, who had high-level clearance, was on a committee with oversight of all Department of Defence (DoD) special access programmes and spent a decade on the Senate Intelligence Committee.
He is now one of a number of former senior government insiders who have gone on record about UFOs after joining alien truth-seeking organisation To The Stars Academy, set up by former Blink 182 frontman Tom DeLonge.
Mr Mellon, who also work on classified projects at Area 51 in Nevada, detailed the astonishing incident that reportedly happened off the coast of San Diego in broad daylight, at the launch of the academy last month.
Now a video that is said to be the footage, filmed in 2004, has been released by an “unknown source” and is doing the rounds on social media, Dailystar.co.uk reports.
Alien conspiracy theory Youtube channel Secureteam10 has broadcast the clip, which shows a mystery hovering in the skies.
It appears that one of the F-18’s crosshairs lines it up, but is unable to keep track of it when it speeds out of sight.
Tyler Glockner, who runs Secureteam10, said the "craft disappears with seemingly supersonic speed."

UFO NEWS: Chris Mellon previously worked at mysterious Area 51.
He said: "It looks like legit F-18 footage. The US Navy investigation was hushed up.
"This footage has been corroborated by men that were there."
Mr Mellon had said the Mimitz, a five billion dollar warship with a crew of thousands, was operating there, escorted by the USS Princeton, an Aegis class cruiser.
Mr Mellon said: "Imagine these ships engaging in a routine training exercise when an unidentified aircraft with a small radar cross section appears on the radar heading directly towards the battlegroup.
YouTube
UFO BOMBSHELL: The object was allegedly caught on US Navy radar with footage leaked.
"The aircraft has no transponder does not respond to radio calls. The Princeton contacts two F-18s already aloft to intercept the target as the two F-18s approach the four aviators see that the object has no wings or exhaust.
"It is white, oblong, some 40 feet long and perhaps 12 feet thick."
He said one pilot pursued the craft while his wing man stayed high in the air.
Mr Melon said: "The pilots are astonished to see the object suddenly reorient itself toward the approaching F-18.
It looks like legit F-18 footage. The US Navy investigation was hushed up. This footage has been corroborated by men that were there.
Tyler Glockner
"In a series of discreet tumbling manoeuvres that seem to defy the laws of physics.
"The object takes a position directly behind the approaching F-18.
"The pilot’s capture gun camera footage and infrared imagery of the object.
"They are outmatched by a technology they’ve never seen."
The pilots returned to the Nimitz, but the object remained in the area for several hours he said.
He added: "At one point the object soars to 80,000 feet, hovers, then drops at supersonic speeds coming to a full stop a mere 50 feet above the ocean where it resumes hovering.
"More F-18s are dispatched but with similar results.
"As before the engagement occurs in broad daylight in the secret machine easily evades the F-18s.
"Dozens of military personnel aboard the various planes and ships involved are privy to these interactions.
"Clearly this is not an experimental US aircraft, but whose is it?
John Barney posted on the Secureteam10 channel that he served in the US Navy for 21 years until 1996.
He said: "My time in the service was great but there so many times that we seen this events right in front of our eyes and we were told never to speak of it.
"I’m sure every time our government documented these events.
"I think it’s great that the truth is finally coming out"
However, sceptic Mick West, who runs the Metabunk.org debunking website, believes the footage just shows a plane.
He wrote in an Metabunk.org online forum about the footage: "To me this seems consistent with a distant (>50 miles away) plane flying away from the camera.
"At the end of the video it gently drifts off to the left, either making a turn or due to the camera lock drifting.
"A sudden jump between one times and two times zoom makes this look vastly more dramatic than it actually is.
"It could be a combination of the plane making a turn and the camera lock.
YouTube
UFO HOAX? the sighting has already been debunked by sceptics.
"If it's flying nearly directly away from the camera and it's really far away (like 50 to 100 miles), then it's still likely going to be moving relative to the camera direction, and indeed we see the camera heading at the top got from 4°R to 8° L, at which point the tracking seems to fail.
"So I'd say the entire incident likely consisted of dodgy radar returns and a distant plane not on the radar."
Not everyone who has viewed the footage is convinced it is proof of anything extra-terrestrial.
One YouTube poster wrote: “This is such blurry UFO footage. You’re just scraping at barrels.”
Another added: “Wait so the leaked information is a black dot… okay you win I believe in aliens.”

Apocalyptic Trumpet Sounds In The Sky Heard In Canada and Indonesie
Apocalyptic Trumpet Sounds In The Sky Heard In Canada and Indonesie
People around the world have been reporting eerie, haunting and almost apocalyptic like sounds. According to witnesses of this unexplained phenomenon, they hear humming and loud booms, grinding metal, trumpet-like noises coming from the sky.
But do these sounds really come from the sky or something else is going on?
An in-depth investigation on this issue conducted by Linda Molten Howe has shown that the secret of these sounds is inside the Earth.
And again these sounds have been heard. This time strange apocalyptic trumpet-like sounds are heard in the sky in Downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada on November 2, 2017 at 9:30pm local time and one day earlier, on November 1, 2017 similar sounds are heard from several locations in Indonesie.
BIJZONDERE WAARNEMINGEN IN HET LUCHTRUIM ( VIDEO )
BIJZONDERE WAARNEMINGEN IN HET LUCHTRUIM ( VIDEO )
Er waren de afgelopen dagen enkele vreemde verschijnselen waar te nemen in de lucht op diverse plaatsten op aarde.
Een grote mysterieuze lichtbol verscheen boven de beroemde Popocatépetl vulkaan in Mexico en ook in Zuid Limburg was het nodige te zien.
Niet ver van de Amerikaanse stad Los Angeles in Californië ligt de plaats Rowland Heights.
Op 24 oktober rijdt daar een man die uit zijn ooghoeken een merkwaardig langgerekt object door de lucht ziet vliegen. Het heeft de inmiddels bekende sigaarvorm, maar dat niet alleen, het ding lijkt begeleid te worden door een ronde witte UFO.
Zoals zo vaak is de kwaliteit van de camera niet al te geweldig, maar er is duidelijk te zien dat een vreemd object wordt begeleid door een ronde witte UFO. Waarmee er dan twee UFO's zijn, want ook het langwerpige object lijkt geen vliegtuig of iets dergelijks.
Hedenochtend even na zeven uur was ik buiten met onze hond. Voorwerp hing stil op grote hoogte. Geen geluid. Er was een vliegtuig in de buurt van de Amerikaanse luchtmacht, dit heb ik namelijk bij thuiskomst opgezocht. Vliegtuig is zichtbaar op de video, evenals het stil hangend voorwerp. Opeens was voorwerp ook weer weg. Ik had enkel mijn mobiele telefoon bij me, helaas daardoor niet dichterbij kunnen zoomen. Heel apart.
De volgende interessante opname is gemaakt op 15 oktober vanuit een rijdende auto in Manhattan, New York.
Het zijn drie tot vier objecten die zich in de buurt van wat wolken ophouden, iets dat we geregeld tegenkomen. Of de wolken hier een rol spelen is niet duidelijk.
Uit manier waarop de video is opgenomen en de stemmen in de achtergrond lijkt dit een echte opname te maken en dan is het bijzonder dat zo weinig mensen dit hebben opgemerkt nabij een grote stad als New York.
UFO's die zich verborgen houden in wolken zijn soms heel duidelijk waar te nemen en andere keren wat minder.
De volgende foto's zijn gemaakt door een lezer die zich afvraagt wat hij heeft gezien. In dit geval is het niet echt duidelijk. Het zou een object kunnen zijn, maar ook een donker deel van de wolk.
Hij schrijft het volgende (dank!):
Onderstaande foto's zijn van gisteren middag circa 5 uur.
Na mijn werkdag en de boodschappen zat ik even op de bank en keek naar buiten. Vond de lucht op een of ander manier best apart kwa kleur ect.Iets trok mijn aan om even buiten vanaf mijn balkon rond te kijken.
Buiten vond ik in de natuur/omgeving een bijzondere sfeer hangen betreft geluiden en licht. Na links kijkend viel mijn iets op alwaar ik de bijgevoegde foto's van heb gemaakt.Het lijkt namelijk net of er een donker groot rond object zich schuil houd achter/in de wolken.
Heb er zeker 15 minuten na staan kijken in de hoop dat de wolken er voor zouden optrekken, dit mocht helaas niet zo zijn.
Maar op de foto's vind ik het best goed zichtbaar (misschien na enig speurwerk). Het hing de hele tijd op nagenoeg dezelfde plek terwijl de wolken er voorlangs trokken.
Kunnen jullie mijn vertellen wat of ik gezien heb ??
De foto's zijn genomen in Oudewater, vanaf een balkon op twee hoog.
Op 23 oktober 2017 gebeurde er iets bijzonders bij de beroemde Popocatépetl vulkaan in Mexico.
Door de jaren heen hebben webcams daar de meest vreemde dingen waargenomen, waarover wij ook al uitgebreid hebben bericht.
Boven de vulkaan verschijnt enige tijd een enorme lichtbol, waarvan is komen vast te staan dat het niet de maan is.
De bol blijft enige tijd zichtbaar zoals te zien in de volgende video, die helaas in het Spaans is. De beelden met de tijdaanduiding van wat de webcam heeft vastgelegd zijn wel goed te zien.
Dit verschijnsel lijkt op iets dat we zagen eind vorig jaar bij die andere bekende vulkaan in Mexico, de Colima, en waar wij toen het volgende over schreven:
In Mexico zijn eigenlijk twee vulkanen waar altijd wel wat valt te beleven. De ene is die met die mooie naam Popocatépetl en de andere Colima.
Bij beiden was afgelopen week het nodige te beleven.
De Colima vulkaan, waar de webcam wel iets heel bijzonders vast wist te leggen.
Het zag er zo uit:
De volgende serie foto’s geeft ongeveer een beeld van wat er achtereenvolgens was te zien.
Wat het ook is, het is enorm, want de krater zelf schijnt een doorsnee te hebben van zo’n 600 meter.
Is dit een enorm ruimteschip dat zich middels een soort plasma-achtige structuur probeert te verbergen? En wat doet dit enorme schip dan bij de vulkaan?
Heeft het iets te maken met het tanken van energie, zoals soms grote UFO’s dat lijken te doen in de buurt van de zon?
Deze beelden zijn gevonden door de inmiddels bekende Youtube gebruiker Streetcap1, de man die ongeveer 24 uur per dag bezig is met het ontdekken van bijzondere dingen.
The list of passengers for the first interstellar space mission has been released and, sorry Elon, you’re not on it and neither are any other Trekkie-wannabes – with or without their own rockets. However, if you’re a Caenorhabditis elegans or a tardigrade, you may want to check the manifest of the starchip USS Starlite to see if it has a tiny seat with your name on it.
“We are developing the capability to test whether terrestrial life as we know it can exist in interstellar space by preparing small life-forms … C. elegans and radiation-resistant tardigrades … which are ideal candidates to be our first interstellar travelers.”
“Small and radiation-resistant” – that second qualification knocked Peter Dinklage off the list but, in a speech given at the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) Program’s 2017 Symposium in Denver reported on by Space.com, Philip Lubin, head of the Starlight program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, gave an update on who would be making the first trip-on-a-chip to another star. Project Starlite (also referred to as DEEP-IN (Directed Energy Propulsion for Interstellar Exploration) and DEIS (Directed Energy Interstellar Studies)) is NASA’s program to use lasers to propel chip-sized spacecraft or wafer-sats at up to one-quarter the speed of light on long-distance voyages.
“Besides being microscopic, and thus conveniently fitting on our first interstellar wafer craft, they can be frozen and put into a state of anhydrobiosis, meaning they can be dehydrated and put into suspended animation. When they are re-hydrated, they wake up as good as new!”
No jet-lag … that pretty much eliminates the rest of us humans. While those cute little tardigrades are better known and have better nicknames (water bears, moss piglets, space bears), Caenorhabditis elegans (which means recent, rod-like and elegant) seems better suited for a trip to Alpha Centauri on a DVD-sized spaceship. C. elegans was the first multicellular organism to have its whole genome sequenced, they’re hermaphrodites and can be re-hydrated after years in a dehydrated state with a tiny drop of water – assuming there is water of some kind at its destination. Tardigrades are a more complex organism that have shown in previous orbital space flights to be extremely resistant to radiation, G-forces, temperature fluctuations, lost luggage and anything else they might encounter on a 20-year trip.
The inside of the first compartment for C. elegans won’t be quite this elegant
How will future mission control specialists know that the space travelers survived the trip in their miniature chambers? The craft’s onboard plutonium will power a warm-up and tiny cameras to monitor their awakening … not to mention any close encounters with aliens of their size or larger. Anticipating your questions and concerns about contamination, NASA escapes through a loophole – while it is participating in sending the ship, it will not participate in the funding of the C. elegans/tardigrades portion and the reanimation itself will occur in space near Alpha Centauri, not on a planet.
Should we be sending Earth creatures into deep space? Will, as believers in panspermia suggest, the worms and water bears be greeted by long-lost relatives? Will they survive or die in a few hours like Laika, the first dog to orbit the Earth 60 years ago this month?
Or will an extraterrestrial skeet-shooter blast the star-chip to bits before anything can happen?
Plasmoid Anomalies - A camouflaged life form in our skies
Plasmoid Anomalies -A camouflaged life form in our skies
Plasmoid Anomalies Study Group is a research channel and their key steps for systematically observing Plasmoid anomalies are:
1. Infrared or short radio waves (radar) spotting. 2. The use of very high optical magnification able to resolve distant object details. 3. Direct signaling to the anomalies spotted. Anomalies will change behavior and body geometry in response to "smart" signals.
In the same way that stars are masked by the sky scattering of visible light in daylight many small objects in the atmosphere are also masked.
This masking effect is lower in the infrared portion of the spectrum and even lower in the short radio wave portion, so the detection of small objects in the atmosphere is more effective in the infrared or in the short radio wave (radar) portion of the spectrum than in visible light.
Adaptive/dynamic camouflage is used by cephalopods in marine environments but Anomalies are the real kings of camouflage.
Some anomalies respond with flares to direct light signals in daylight or at night showing with that clearly their anomalous character. Some anomalies had responded by morphing into digit shapes correlated to the signals sent to them.
The observational data available on plasmoid anomalies and recent research results on the physics of complex plasmas strongly suggest that some plasmoid anomalies could be plasma based life forms, but more comprehensive studies are needed according to the Study Group.
If the extraterrestrial hypothesis is controversial, then abductions of humans by alien beings is controversial squared, if not cubed. There’s intense polarization on the issue, not just between UFO skeptics and believers, but between the believers themselves. Is there a person who can share reality story of alien abductions? Famous abduction cases, such as the Travis Walton situation, have been popularized in books and movies, along with the occurrence been validated using polygraph tests administered to all parties involved. While this may not be proof positive that aliens are abducting humans and performing experiments and surgical procedures on them, it does raise questions.
Investigators worth mentioning sightings and abduction reports call themselves Ufologists, and now have precise scientific methods meant for investigating the reports people receive. While many of your methods and findings are usually not recognized by the scientific community overall, it does raise this question of why many people would risk their reputations and careers while in the scientific world by becoming needed for paranormal investigations such seeing that these. Logic would say you need to have something to the UFO and additionally separate question, for the property to take such risks. Of course, there’s no concrete evidence that anyone has taken by an alien spaceship. However, there are those who assert they’ve been kidnapped, and their stories are chilling.
After the Sitgreaves National Forest nearby Heber, Arizona, the occurrence began on Nov. 5, 1975. Walton and his six loggers were heading when they saw a 40 ft. shiny disc soaring in the air. According to his testimony, the disc has an enthusiastic and metallic material, making strange sounds. From the time it got close, the more it became scary to people. Fifteen years later, it was being revealed that the trees where the extraterrestrial craft hovered had been producing wood fibers thirty-six times it did 85 years before. The most curious part is that its core has thickened growth, but only in the direction where the craft had been years ago.

Man Saw Alien Looking Beings Pushing Their Vehicle In The Field
Philip Shepherdson reported having encountered a black triangular shaped object. He said the incident took place near York in North Yorkshire.
He was on country lanes near Easingwold driving his scooter when he turned left toward Huby. Then something strange distracted him.
Philip noticed the unusual black triangular object from his left hovering in the corner of a small field. Not believing what he was seeing, he stopped to get a better look.
Philip described the object as smooth with no control surfaces and sharp edges. The top had a cockpit with a figure inside it, Philip said.
All he could see was a black shaped helmet and some kind that was black overall.
He then realized there were two more slim looking figures by the side of the craft. They too wore black overalls as they tried to push the vehicle into the next field. Philip believed those strange looking beings were trying to conceal their vehicle among the standing crop.
These alien-looking figures then suddenly stopped and looked at his direction. He was shaking and time appeared to stop.
After seeing the entire thing, Philip’s mind could not take anymore, and he got on his bike and took off to work. The incident took place in February 1979, but only recently he dared to come forward and seek out other witnesses.
Astronauts' brains change during spaceflight, the Great Pyramid of Egypt harbors a void that researchers discovered using cosmic rays and water bears are good candidates for interstellar space travel. Here are the most interesting things that happened in the universe this week.
1. Works begins on massive telescope's fifth of seven mirrors.
Technicians have begun casting the Giant Magellan Telescope's (GMT) fifth primary mirror at the University of Arizona's Richard F. Caris Mirror Laboratory. The resulting telescope, scheduled to start observing the heavens in 2023, will have 10 times the resolving power of the NASA's Hubble Space Telescope.

'Big void' identified in Khufu's Great Pyramid at Giza
'Big void' identified in Khufu's Great Pyramid at Giza
By Jonathan Amos BBC Science Correspondent
The mysteries of the pyramids have deepened with the discovery of what appears to be a giant void within the Khufu, or Cheops, monument in Egypt.
It is not known why the cavity exists or indeed if it holds anything of value because it is not obviously accessible.
Japanese and French scientists made the announcement after two years of study at the famous pyramid complex.
They have been using a technique called muography, which can sense density changes inside large rock structures.
The Great Pyramid, or Khufu's Pyramid, is thought to have been constructed during the reign of Pharaoh Khufu between 2509 and 2483 BC.
At 140m (460 feet) in height, it is the largest of the Egyptian pyramids located at Giza on the outskirts of Cairo.
ScanPyramids has already detected a smaller void on the northern face
The new cavity is perhaps 30m long and several metres in height
All three muon technologies sense the same feature in the same place
Khufu famously contains three large interior chambers and a series of passageways, the most striking of which is the 47m-long, 8m-high Grand Gallery.
The newly identified feature is said to sit directly above this and have similar dimensions.
"We don't know whether this big void is horizontal or inclined; we don't know if this void is made by one structure or several successive structures," explained Mehdi Tayoubi from the HIP Institute, Paris.
"What we are sure about is that this big void is there; that it is impressive; and that it was not expected as far as I know by any sort of theory."
The ScanPyramids team is being very careful not to describe the cavity as a "chamber".
Khufu contains compartments that experts believe may have been incorporated by the builders to avoid collapse by relieving some of the stress of the overlying weight of stone.
The higher King's Chamber, for example, has five such spaces above it.
The renowned American archaeologist Mark Lehner sits on a panel reviewing ScanPyramids' work.
He says the muon science is sound but he is not yet convinced the discovery has significance.
"It could be a kind of space that the builders left to protect the very narrow roof of the Grand Gallery from the weight of the pyramid," he told the BBC's Science In Action programme.
"Right now it's just a big difference; it's an anomaly. But we need more of a focus on it especially in a day and age when we can no longer go blasting our way through the pyramid with gunpowder as [British] Egyptologist Howard Vyse did in the early 1800s."
One of the team leaders, Hany Helal from Cairo University, believes the void is too big to have a pressure-relieving purpose, but concedes the experts will debate this.
"What we are doing is trying to understand the internal structure of the pyramids and how this pyramid has been built," he told reporters.
"Famous Egyptologists, archaeologists and architects - they have some hypotheses. And what we are doing is giving them data. It is they who have to tell us whether this is expected or not."
Much of the uncertainty comes down to the rather imprecise data gained from muography.
This non-invasive technique has been developed over the past 50 years to probe the interiors of phenomena as diverse as volcanoes and glaciers. It has even been used to investigate the failed nuclear reactors at Fukushima.
Muography makes use of the shower of high-energy particles that rain down on the Earth's surface from space.
When super-fast cosmic rays collide with air molecules, they produce a range of "daughter" particles, including muons.
These also move close to the speed of light and only weakly interact with matter. So when they reach the surface, they penetrate deeply into rock.
But some of the particles will be absorbed and deflected by the atoms in the rock's minerals, and if the muon detectors are placed under a region of interest then a picture of density anomalies can be obtained.
The ScanPyramids team used three different muography technologies and all three agreed on the position and scale of the void.
Sébastien Procureur, from CEA-IRFU, University of Paris-Saclay, emphasised that muography only sees large features, and that the team's scans were not just picking up a general porosity inside the pyramid.
"With muons you measure an integrated density," he explained. "So, if there are holes everywhere then the integrated density will be the same, more or less, in all directions, because everything will be averaged. But if you see some excess of muons, it means that you have a bigger void.
"You don't get that in a Swiss cheese."
The question now arises as to how the void should be investigated further.
Jean-Baptiste Mouret, from the French national institute for computer science and applied mathematics (Inria), said the team had an idea how to do it, but that the Egyptian authorities would first have to approve it.
"Our concept is to drill a very small hole to potentially explore monuments like this. We aim to have a robot that could fit in a 3cm hole. Basically, we're working on flying robots," he said.
Credible UFO sighting by pilots and crew in new UK files
Credible UFO sighting by pilots and crew in new UK files
Auriginy Trislander, similar to the one flown by Bowyer.
One of the most highly regarded UFO sightings in recent history was witnessed by the crew and passengers of two separate planes above the Channel Islands, in the English Channel, on April 23, 2007. The most recent batch of UK UFO files includes reports from the pilots of the planes, along with drawings of what they saw. One of the pilots estimates that the objects may have been a mile wide. Dr. David Clarke, a university lecturer on journalism and Ph.D. of folklore, serves as a consultant to the UK National Archives for their UFO file releases, and he says of this case, “This unexplained sighting remains one of the more intriguing puzzles in the MoD’s X-files.”
The first to spot the UFO was Captain Ray Bowyer, the pilot of a small 18-seat Trislander passenger plane for Aurigny Air Services. The most detailed account of his sighting can be found in a report he wrote for the book UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go On the Record, written by Leslie Kean. He says it was a clear spring afternoon with a low layer of haze. He was at about 4000 feet when he spotted a bright yellow object below. At first he thought it might be a greenhouse he was familiar with, but then realized that with the haze, he should not be able to see the greenhouse. He grabbed his binoculars and noticed that it was actually a large shiny cigar shaped object with a dark band to the right of the middle.

At first he estimated the size of the object to be as large as a 737 fuselage, and estimated the object to be at about 2000 feet. As he got closer to the object he noticed there was a second identical one just beyond the first. They didn’t appear to move, although later he learned they were moving slowly apart. He called the radar controller on the island of Jersey, to inquire about the objects, but they said they were not picking anything up. However, after Bowyer asked them to check again a few minutes later they were able to pick up two objects south of the island of Alderny. Seeing the object get larger as he flew closer, he felt relieved with this information as Alderney was his destination. Bowyer was not enthusiastic about flying close to these unknown objects with a cabin full of passengers.
As they approached Alderney the objects were visible to the naked eye. The Trislander aircraft does not have a separate cabin for the pilots, so Bowyer could hear passengers inquiring about what the objects were. He decided not to address their concerns in fear of frightening them. At this distance he could now see that the dark band on the objects was actually an area of sparkling blues and greens.
While descending into Alderney, they lost site of the objects once they dropped below the haze. Bowyer figured that no one from the ground must have been able to see the UFOs due to the layer of haze. Once on the ground he asked the passengers what they had seen and they confirmed seeing the same objects he saw. One of the passengers onboard, John Russell, who had seen the object along with his wife Kate, later told the press, “I saw an orange light. It was like an elongated oval.”
Bowyer reported his sighting, as required, and took a break before his next flight. He was a little worried that the objects were still up there. However, once he broke the haze on his next flight, the objects were gone.
Upon reflection of the distances, Bowyer felt that the objects must have been a lot larger than he first estimated. In fact he feels they must have been a mile long. He is still at a loss to what it was that he saw. He told the press soon after the sighting, “I’m certainly not saying that it was something of another world. All I’m saying is that I have never seen anything like it before in all my years of flying.

Later Bowyer found out that there had been another pilot who had sighted the object. At the time Bower was discussing his sighting with the tower in Jersey, Captain Patrick Patterson, was flying from the Isle of Man into Jersey. He had heard the tower report that they had a radar hit of an unknown, so he took a look to see if he could see something himself. In a report in the UK files, it states that Patterson reported seeing a cigar shaped craft yellow in color. He also estimated it at 2000 feet. However, because of the haze he was only able to see one object for about a minute.
The official statements of the Royal Air Force are also in the files, they questioned the radar contacts. They stated, “We believe the ATC radar at Jersey is secondary only and therefore unable to achieve primary radar contact (if the object was producing one). The contact was reported stationary again making radar detection unlikely…” They went on to wrap up their investigation with this final statement, “…no further reports indicated that the object had a heading towards the UK. Therefore, we concluded that there was no threat to the UK from this observation and will not be taking the investigation further.”
In other words, they disregard the radar evidence, and since the objects didn’t seem to be in British airspace, it is not their problem. Not everyone agrees that such a credible sighting of two very large objects near British airspace should not be of concern to their military.
Soon after the incident, Nick Pope, who once worked for the British Ministry of Defense UFO desk, had this to say, “While no witnesses are infallible, pilots are trained observers and less likely than most people to misidentify something mundane. The MoD’s UFO case files contain several reports from civil and military pilots, some of which were correlated by radar. This is the sort of sighting that is taken seriously and should be investigated thoroughly. While most UFOs can be explained as misidentifications of aircraft, weather balloons, satellites and suchlike, a small percentage are more difficult to explain. This is one of the most intriguing sightings I’ve heard about in recent years.”
“There are potentially hundreds of thousands of habitable planets in our galaxy”
Sam Levin
The incredible study from the labs of posho Oxford University suggested natural selection will likely have played a huge part in how extraterrestrials developed on distant worlds.
Shockingly, it said any aliens that we may encounter are unlikely to look like beings we have become familiar with on TV or on the silver screen.
On far-away planets, beings could appear remarkably different to one another – depending on a number of conditions on the worlds.

"But we believe evolutionary theory offers a unique additional tool for trying to understand what aliens will be like, and we have shown some examples of the kinds of strong predictions we can make with it.

These mystery creatures could be the ‘First’ Interstellar species
These mystery creatures could be the ‘First’ Interstellar species
The tardigrades commonly called water bears, space bears, or moss piglets due to their appearance and movement, constitute a phylum of Ecdysozoa within the animal kingdom, characterized by being invertebrates, protostomes, segmented and microscopic (500 μm on average).
They are grouped within a large cluster of paratropes by presenting characters that suggest that they share a common ancestor with arthropods, along with onychophores.
The tardigrades were described for the first time by Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1773, who named them water bears (from the German Kleine Wasser-Bären, literally ‘water bears’) and refers to the way they walk, similar to the movement of bears.
Later, the term tardigrade (meaning “slow pace”) was given by Lazzaro Spallanzani in 1777 precisely because of the slowness of this animal.
They are resilient organisms under extremophile conditions, with unique characteristics in the animal kingdom such as being able to survive in the vacuum of space, at very high pressures 6000 atm (the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the Earth is 1 atm, so they can resist atmospheric pressures 6000 times higher), they have the ability to survive at temperatures of -200 ° C and up to 150 ° C, and can withstand prolonged dehydration (they can live for up to 10 years without water). Tardigrades are also able to withstand ionizing radiation.

These bizarre creatures are most likely to outlive everything until our Sun eventually swells up and becomes a red giant.
Precisely this is why they could become the first interstellar species, as scientists plan to send Tardigrades and the nematode worm on a spacecraft that will leave our solar system.
“These are real interstellar passengers,” says Philip Lubin, head of the Starlight program at the University of California, Santa Barbara, which is planning one such interstellar journey, according to Space.com.
“We are developing the capability to test whether terrestrial life as we know it can exist in interstellar space by preparing small life-forms… C. elegans and radiation-resistant tardigrades… which are ideal candidates to be our first interstellar travelers.”
Scientists are currently working on a safe plan on how to store these tiny—yet bizarre—creatures in a state known as anhydrobiosis—a dormant state induced by drought in which an organism becomes almost completely dehydrated and reduces its metabolic activity to an imperceptible level.
Scientists plan to wake them up at a specific time during their journey across the stars and study them in detail.
This unprecedented mission will provide scientists with a better understanding of how organisms could survive long cosmic journeys, but also offer insight on how life in general could spread across the universe.
“Besides being microscopic, and thus conveniently fitting on our first interstellar wafer craft, they can be frozen and put into a state of anhydrobiosis, meaning they can be dehydrated and put into suspended animation,” the team wrote on the project website. “When they are re-hydrated, they wake up as good as new!”
“Clearly, there are many technical challenges. This is a long-term humanity-changing program,” Lubin said. “The biggest challenge is that NASA, the U.S. government, does not plan 30 to 50 years ahead in space. Perhaps a public/private alliance is needed. Similarly, what may be required is a new division of NASA or new agency whose mandate is interstellar flight.”
ANCIENT HISTORY Egypt isn’t the country with the most Pyramids in the world—Sudan has more than 250
ANCIENT HISTORY - Egypt isn’t the country with the most Pyramids in the world—Sudan has more than 250
Despite the fact that when speaking about Pyramids our mind immediately jumps to Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs isn’t the country with the most number of Pyramids on Earth.
In fact, Pyramids are everywhere. It’s as if thousands of years ago, ancient civilizations around the globe decided to build pyramids all of a sudden.
Without knowing that the ancient Chinese were building Pyramids, the Ancient Aztecs, Maya, Egyptians and many other civilizations erected massive monuments that defy modern-day engineering skills.
There are literally thousands of Pyramids around the globe. There are more than 1000 pyramids in Central America alone. There are 300 Pyramids in China and over 200 Pyramids in Sudan. Egypt boasts around 120 Pyramids.
How ancient civilizations managed this, remains one of the grates mysteries for modern-day scholars.
There are modern engineers who have said: “We couldn’t do this in twenty-two years.” However, the ancients apparently were able to do it.
If we travel to an area of the Nile valley know as Nubia, we find that this land was home to three Kushite kingdoms during ancient times.
The first had its capital at Kerma (2600–1520 BC).
The second was located in Napata (1000–300 BC), while their last kingdom was based around Meroë (300 BC-AD 300).
Kerma and Meroë were areas heavily influenced by ancient Egypt in many ways, culturally, economically, politically, and militarily.
During hundreds of years, the ancient Kushite kingdoms eventually erected more than 250 pyramids at three sites in Nubia.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
These ancient structures served as tombs for the kings and queens of Napata and Meroë.
The most extensive site of Nubian Pyramids is located at Meroe.
According to scholars, during the Meroitic period around forty queens and kings were buried there.
The size and complexity of the Nubian pyramids greatly differ from their ancient Egyptian counterparts.
The ancient Nubian pyramids were built of stepped courses from horizontally positioned stone blocks.
Their height varies from approximately 6 to 30 meters.
Nearly all of the ancient Nubian pyramids were plundered in the past.
Sadly, many Nubian Pyramids were destroyed during the 18300’s when treasure hunter Giuseppe Ferlini blew the tops off from 40 tombs during his quest for treasure.
Some of the pyramids have been successfully restored, but many of the ancient monuments remain partially destroyed.
According to UNESCO, the Nubian pyramids bear decorative elements from the cultures of Pharaonic Egypt, Greece, and Rome, making them priceless ancient relics.

“Looking at gene expression … we really see an explosion, like fireworks taking off, as soon as the human body gets into space.”
NASA’s Twins Study investigates subtle effects and changes that might occur in spaceflight as compared to Earth. This is done by studying two individuals who have the same genetics – identical twin astronauts Scott and Mark Kelly- but are in different environments for one year. Read more about the Twins Study.
Chris Mason of Weill Cornell Medicine is the Twins Study Principal Investigator. Mason said:
Some of the most exciting things that we’ve seen from looking at gene expression in space is that we really see an explosion, like fireworks taking off, as soon as the human body gets into space. With this study, we’ve seen thousands and thousands of genes change how they are turned on and turned off. This happens as soon as an astronaut gets into space, and some of the activity persists temporarily upon return to Earth.
When retired twin astronaut Scott Kelly returned to Earth in March 2016, the Twins Study research intensified with investigators collecting samples from him and his twin brother, retired astronaut Mark Kelly. The researchers began combining the data and reviewing the enormous amount of information looking for correlations. Mason said:
This study represents one of the most comprehensive views of human biology. It really sets the bedrock for understanding molecular risks for space travel as well as ways to potentially protect and fix those genetic changes.
Final results for the Twins Study are expected to be published in 2018.
Bottom line : Twins Study preliminary results suggest space travel causes an increase in methylation, the process of turning genes on and off. New video from NASA.
ANCIENT NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS? DID THE ANCIENTS HAVE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION?
ANCIENT NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS? DID THE ANCIENTS HAVE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION?
The ancient literature is full of references to weapons of mass destruction used by the primordial gods. Many historians consider them to be mythology, with no connection to modern technology.
WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO?
But, on a more careful analysis, correlated with archaeological discoveries, these references may fall into the "history" category, with everything in the field. Even if they are amazed, even if they seem incredible, in times hard to date there have been wars in which atomic bombs and neutron bombs have been used but also military technology still unknown.
NUCLEAR WAR DESCRIBED IN INDIA'S EPIC HISTORY
In the Mahabharata, the epic grand epic poem of ancient India, convincingly and picturesque at the same time, episodes of a nuclear war are described.
A comparative analysis of myths allowed the researchers to assume that the Mahabharata speaks of sometimes that existed hundreds of thousands of years before us, about the Asura civilization which, like the Atlantians, the Lemurians, and the Hyperboreans, existed before the contemporary civilization.
There are assumptions that assimilate the Sumerian gods with the Vedic gods, claiming that there was only one devastating war between the generations of the gods that remained in the memory of men just like the Flood. And the name of the great Vedic War is Kurukshetra, which reminds of the "Sumerian Myths of Kur".
The ancient civilization of the Indus was in commercial relations with the Sumerian civilization, as evidenced by the many seals found in the Mesopotamian royal archives.
The physical traces left by the wars, where nuclear weapons (vitrified sand, vitrified fortifications, skeletons, soil, and radioactivity) are used, exist in all places where "mythology" places conflicts.
The great Vedic War, in which atomic bombs were used, also included a young generation of gods and the leading clan. They were all related. And some and others have used powerful weapons of destruction and, ultimately, atomic bombs and/or neutrons. These weapons, have been described in Mahabharata and Rigveda.
Like the Sumerian and Biblical cities, and the great cities of the Indus, Harappa, and Mohenjo-Daro, there are obvious "traces" of nuclear and neutron destruction. The skeleton on the streets, many holding hands, caught in the run of catastrophe that suddenly fell on them, are among the most radioactive, similar to those of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They were dated at 2,500 BC, but radioactivity can change the dating in the sense that it looks a much more recent date. Russian historian A. Gorbovski reported finding a skeleton with a 50-fold higher radioactivity than normal.
At Mohenjo-Daro, a thick layer of green glass was also discovered, resulting in the melting of the clay over 1,500 degrees. It was argued that the epicenter of the explosion was also found, where everything is crystallized, melted or forming a glass conglomerate.
The mysterious shiny black stones found in the epicenter were actually clay pots, melted at an extreme temperature. There were only 44 skeletons found on the street across the city, indicating that they knew what to do next, and the population had run away early.
The possibility of ancient nuclear wars, called the prehistoric nuclear wars, was first proposed by author Erich von Daniken in the 1960s.
His theory states that nuclear weapons were produced and used by ancient cultures or by ancient astronauts in the distant past. Von Daniken and other authors claim that they have found evidence of nuclear weapons in the Bible in the Mahabharata text in the Libyan desert - glass and vitrified architecture.
Ancient cities whose stone walls have been literally vitrified can be found in India, Ireland, Scotland, France, Turkey and elsewhere. There is no logical explanation for the vitrification of stone forts and cities, apart from an atomic explosion.
TOM DELONGE HAS A MIND-BLOWING THEORY BEHIND THE ROSWELL UFO INCIDENT
TOM DELONGE HAS A MIND-BLOWING THEORY BEHIND THE ROSWELL UFO INCIDENT
Former Blink-182 musician on the UFO phenomenon, Roswell and becoming UFO Researcher of the Year.
Tom DeLonge, who was once a member of the popular band Blink-182, raised some eyebrows back in 2016 when he announced that he was giving up his career in music to devote himself to the study of extra-terrestrial activity full time.
UFO ARE ADVANCED AERIAL THREATS (AATS)
When DeLonge made his announcement, he met a great deal of ridicule and many people claimed that he was just going through a rather silly phase. However, a year later, he has shown that he has the capability to become a figure of serious influence in the UFO research community.
He has been given the ‘UFO Researcher of the Year’ award and has been working on a crowdfunded campaign intended to raise the money to build a spaceship that will be used to study aspects of the UFO phenomenon, or ‘Advanced Aerial Threats’ as he and his colleagues refer to them.
DeLonge is not coy about speaking publicly about his work and his beliefs about extra-terrestrial activity on this planet and the UFO phenomenon. He has recently appeared as a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience to discuss his work. In the course of the interview, he explained why he and his colleagues have begun to refer to UFOs as Advanced Aerial Threats and the current state of his relationship with his former bandmates.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of his interview is his views on the infamous Roswell incident of 1947. He explains that he believes that the crash at the military base was not actually extra-terrestrial in origin but most likely hailed from either Germany or Argentina but that the technology had hallmarks of extra-terrestrial technology which the US government wanted to keep secret.
He claims that the conflicting stories that emerged in the period of time following the notorious incident were a smokescreen to ensure that the public never found out the truth about what had happened. “We put out a story saying, ‘It’s alien!’ And then we put out a story saying, ‘It’s a weather balloon!’ But the real thing it was we didn’t want anyone to guess, ” he said.
Despite his misgivings about the extra-terrestrial activity at Roswell, DeLonge has no doubts that the Earth has been visited by aliens. "What people need to realize is the UFO phenomenon isn't a phenomenon. The universe is f**king gigantic and there's life everywhere!" he said.

NASA: 'THERE IS A QUASI-MOON ORBITING AROUND EARTH FOR ALMOST A CENTURY'
NASA: 'THERE IS A QUASI-MOON ORBITING AROUND EARTH FOR ALMOST A CENTURY'
Representatives from NASA have reported that they have definitively identified a secondary moon which is orbiting Earth. Astonishingly, they believe that while the newly discovered mini-moon has been in orbit for more than a century without ever being detected before.
The space agency has explained that the smaller moon is moving on a rather irregular path compared to the Moon. It has an elliptical orbit and passes at a distance to Earth of between thirty-eight and a hundred times further than the Moon.
It is also in a tilted orbit which means that it sometimes travels must faster through space than the Earth and, at other times, its speed is much slower. This discrepancy means that this moon has a slightly different length of a year than an Earth year.
“Since 2016 HO3 loops around our planet, but never ventures very far away as we both go around the sun, we refer to it as a quasi-satellite of Earth,” said Paul Chodas, manager of NASA’s Center for Near-Earth Object (NEO) Studies at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. “One other asteroid — 2003 YN107 — followed a similar orbital pattern for a while over ten years ago, but it has since departed our vicinity. This new asteroid is much more locked onto us. Our calculations indicate 2016 HO3 has been a stable quasi-satellite of Earth for almost a century, and it will continue to follow this pattern as Earth’s companion for centuries to come.”
Representatives from NASA have referred to the mini-moon as Asteroid 2016 H30 and believe that it was caught in the Earth’s orbit at least a hundred years ago.
However, the moon is incredibly small and has therefore evaded telescopes before now. The mini-moon is only forty meters in width and a hundred meters in length which means that it is incredibly difficult to view in the night’s sky without the use of specialized equipment. It has been reported that the smaller moon was detected and studied using the PAN-STARSS 1 asteroid survey telescope which is based in Haleakala in Hawaii.
Unlike the older Moon, Asteroid 2016 H30 is described as being a quasi-satellite meaning that it will not be in the Earth’s orbit indefinitely. However, representatives from the space agency said that given the current trajectory of the mini-moon, it is not expected to break away from the orbit of the Earth for several centuries. This means that the Moon will have a smaller companion for quite some time.
ORIGINAL FOOTAGE FROM THE BATTLE OF LOS ANGELES UFO SIGHTING - 1942
ORIGINAL FOOTAGE FROM THE BATTLE OF LOS ANGELES UFO SIGHTING - 1942
If you ask people about the first major UFO encounter in the US, chances are the answer is Roswell. Most people (including UFO enthousiasts) forget about the famous battle of Los Angeles UFO encounter back in 1942.
That UFO encounter may score less on the UFO popularity scale, however this event could be much more important for the future of our planet and human civilization.
The Roswell UFO crash story comes down to the fact that an extraterrestrial vehicule malfunctioned and crashed to earth. Humanity was not to blame for the cause of the crash.
VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE EVENT
On the 24th of February of 1942 however (right after the start of WW2), we might have had a true first contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence... and the US army decided to answer that invite with more than 1,400 anit aircraft shells.
Air raid sirens sounded throughout Los Angeles when a unidentified object invaded the guarded airspace. Numerous search lights were aimed at the object while the anti aircraft guns were blazing.
Some people may have heard about this sighting, very few know that there is actual footage of this event. It clearly shows the search lights aiming for the object while 12.8-pound anti aircraft shells are flying through the air. In the focus area of the search light we can see a saucer shaped aircraft.
If this was a real first contact with a UFO, we sure made a great impression.
Er is al een buitenaardse levensvorm ontdekt. Tom DeLonge doet meer onthullingen
Er is al een buitenaardse levensvorm ontdekt. Tom DeLonge doet meer onthullingen
De voormalige zanger van de Amerikaanse band Blink-182, Tom DeLonge, ging tijdens een nieuwe uitzending van The Joe Rogan Experience dieper in op zijn onderzoek naar buitenaards leven.
In de podcast stelde hij onder meer dat er al een buitenaardse levensvorm is ontdekt, schrijft muziektijdschrift Alternative Press.
DeLonge claimde dat de VS na het Roswellincident in 1947 heeft geprobeerd het bestaan van een experimenteel Duits vaartuig in de doofpot te stoppen en dat de overheid gedurende de Koude Oorlog daadwerkelijk op een levensvorm is gestuit.
Buitenaards wezen
Hij vertelde tijdens het interview over zijn ontmoetingen met diverse hooggeplaatste overheidsfunctionarissen.
Eén van die ontmoetingen leidde tot onthullingen over de vondst van een buitenaards wezen tijdens de Koude Oorlog.
“Ik vloog naar een vliegveld en nam daar plaats in een restaurant,” vertelde hij. “Er kwam een man bij me zitten die me recht in mijn ogen keek en zei dat ze tijdens de Koude Oorlog een levensvorm hadden gevonden.”
Duitse makelij
Bij het Roswellincident was volgens DeLonge inderdaad buitenaardse technologie betrokken, maar het was volgens hem niet wat de meeste mensen denken.
“Ik denk dat het van Duitse makelij was,” zei hij. “Maar de technologie was gebaseerd op buitenaarse technologie.”
“Het universum is gigantisch en er is overal leven,” klonk het nog.
