Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    Bacteria discovery in Antarctica prompts rethink of humanity’s search for alien life

    PLANETS that were once not even considered candidates to host alien life might be reanalysed to find habitable regions after the discovery of unique bacteria.

    Using maths to find alien life

    BACTERIA discovered in the icy continent of Antarctica is set to change the way humanity looks for alien life on other planets.

    To date, our search for habitable worlds which could host alien life has been guided by what we know about life-conducive conditions on Earth. But in a new breakthrough, researchers have discovered a bacterium in Antarctica that can survive solely off chemicals in the air.

    The microscopic organisms can survive just of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide — opening up new possibilities about the existence of extraterrestrial life forms living in harsh conditions.

    Antarctica is among the most extreme environments on our planet and it was previously thought the stresses of freezing temperatures, limited carbon, nitrogen and water availability along with strong UV radiation restricted life.

    But new research reported in the journal Nature has shown the desert soils of Antarctica harbour surprisingly rich microbial communities.

    “Here we provide evidence that atmospheric trace gases are the primary energy sources of two Antarctic surface soil communities,” researchers wrote.

    “We propose that atmospheric H2, CO2 and CO provide dependable sources of energy and carbon to support these communities, which suggests that atmospheric energy sources can provide an alternative basis for ecosystem function to solar or geological energy sources.”

    Essentially, the bacteria can survive with little sunlight, no geothermal energy and extremely limited nutrients.

    The discovery was the result of DNA sequencing and analysis of soil samples collected from the icy continent.

    “Although more extensive sampling is required to verify whether this process is widespread in terrestrial Antarctica and other oligotrophic habitats, our results provide new understanding of the minimal nutritional requirements for life and open the possibility that atmospheric gases support life on other planets,” researchers said.

    Astronomers have historically sought out the potential presence of water when looking for planets which could support life but the bacteria findings show it’s not the only indicator  }for life.

    Exoplanets that were once not even considered to be candidates to hold life might be reanalysed to find habitable regions, said lead researcher Dr Belinda Ferrari.

    “This new understanding about how life can still exist in physically extreme and nutrient-starved environments like Antarctica opens up the possibility of atmospheric gases supporting life on other planets,” she said.

    Has an alien probe entered our solar system? Mystery object to be scanned for alien tech

    Is it possible that we’ve missed welcoming an alien visitor into our solar system?

    According to experts, it’s possible that an alien probe from a distant solar system may have entered our solar system, disguised as a ‘comet’.

    The mystery comet dubbed as Oumuamua is currently being investigated by astronomers for signs of extraterrestrial technology, as there are doubts among experts that the cigar-shaped comet isn’t just a comet.

    Now, alien-hunting scientists led by Russian billionaire Yuri Milner are set to scan the enigmatic object before it sails beyond Earth’s telescopes. They are looking for signs of advanced, or alien, technology.

    Oumuamua is the first interstellar object to have entered our solar system.

    Alien-hunting scientists say they are looking for ‘radio singles’ claiming that the mystery visitor from another solar system could, in fact, be an alien probe, exploring the cosmos.

    Yuri Milner is the tycoon behind the project Breakthrough Listen—a $100 million (£75m) search for intelligent extraterrestrial life.

    According to reports from the Atlantic, Mr. Milner received last week an email from one of his chief scientists, where he mentioned the enigmatic object sailing through our solar system.

    “The more I study this object, the more unusual it appears, making me wonder whether it might be an artificially made probe which was sent by an alien civilization,” Professor Avi Loeb, the chair of Harvard’s astronomy department and one of Milner’s advisers on Breakthrough Listen, wrote in the email.

    According to Professor Loeb, the mysterious elongated shape of the comet is odd for a space rock but perfect for a space probe traveling between solar systems.

    Now, the Breakthrough Listen project has announced it will scan ‘Oumuamua this week for signs of radio signals.

    ‘Researchers working on long-distance space transportation have previously suggested that a cigar or needle shape is the most likely architecture for an interstellar spacecraft since this would minimize friction and damage from interstellar gas and dust,’ the research firm said in a statement.

    ‘While a natural origin is more likely, there is currently no consensus on what that origin might have been, and Breakthrough Listen is well positioned to explore the possibility that ‘Oumuamua could be an artifact.’

    To search Oumuamua for alien technology, scientists will use the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia.

    Despite the fact that the enigmatic object is now located at twice the distance between our planet and the Sun, the Green Bank Telescope can pick up the slightest signal, if of course there is anything to pick up.

    Researchers from the Breakthrough Listen project want to gather as much info as they can about the object before it leaves our solar system. In 2018, the mystery object will fly past Jupiter and will arrive at Pluto by the 2020s.

    “‘Oumuamua’s presence within our solar system affords Breakthrough Listen an opportunity to reach unprecedented sensitivities to possible artificial transmitters and demonstrate our ability to track nearby, fast-moving objects,” said Listen’s Andrew Siemion, Director of Berkeley SETI Research Center. “Whether this object turns out to be artificial or natural, it’s a great target for Listen.”

    Experts at Breakthrough Listen have also made it clear that even if no signal or other evidence of extraterrestrial technology is heard, Listen observations will cover portions of the radio spectrum in which the object has not yet been observed, and could provide important information about the possibility of water/ice, or the chemistry of a coma (gaseous envelope), neither of which have yet been identified.

    Astronomers Focus Search for Aliens on Interstellar Mystery Object

    Earlier this year, our solar system got a visitor the likes of which it has never seen. Astronomers first spotted the object on October 18th using the PanSTARRS 1 telescope in Maui. At first, the visitor appeared to be a the first known comet to originate from outside our solar system, but further observations revealed it to be much stranger. Nevertheless, it was clear that the speeding visitor came from interstellar space, so the object was given the name ‘Oumuamua from the Hawaiian meaning “a messenger from afar arriving first.” Further analysis by the European Southern Observatory found the object to be perhaps not quite a comet, not quite an asteroid, and cigar-shaped. Based on the light bouncing off of it (or lack thereof), astronomers estimate the object to be among the darkest objects ever observed in space, absorbing 96% of the light that touches its surface.

    Telescopic imagery of ‘Oumuamua (dot in center) passing through our solar system.

    Given the strange nature of the object, it wasn’t long before speculation ran wild that we might have just encountered our first extraterrestrial spacecraft. Avi Loeb, the chair of Harvard’s astronomy department, writes “the more I study this object, the more unusual it appears, making me wonder whether it might be an artificially made probe which was sent by an alien civilization.” In particular, scientists are struck by the long cylindrical shape of the object; ‘Oumuamua is estimated to be between 100 and 400 meters long with much smaller diameter. Such cylinder shapes are perfect for aerospace applications – just look at our own space shuttles and rockets – but are seldom seen in naturally occurring space objects like comets or asteroids which tend to be more spheroid.

    But who knows how many weird asteroids we've yet to discover? There's no telling what 'Oumuamua could be.

    But who knows how many types of weird asteroids we’ve yet to discover? There’s no telling what ‘Oumuamua could be.

    With so much weirdness surrounding ‘Oumuamua, the Breakthrough Listen initiative has decided the object could be its best bet for discovering proof of an alien intelligence. Breakthrough Listen hails itself as “the largest ever scientific research program aimed at finding evidence of civilizations beyond Earth” and shares facilities and researchers with SETI. In a press release issued this morning, Breakthrough Listen announced that even if the possibility of ‘Oumuamua being an alien ‘artifact’ is low, it’s worth checking out:

    Researchers working on long-distance space transportation have previously suggested that a cigar or needle shape is the most likely architecture for an interstellar spacecraft, since this would minimize friction and damage from interstellar gas and dust. While a natural origin is more likely, there is currently no consensus on what that origin might have been, and Breakthrough Listen is well positioned to explore the possibility that ‘Oumuamua could be an artifact.

    Even if the chances that ‘Oumuamua could be an alien craft are tiny, any possibility greater than 0% is exciting. Could this be it? Are we finally be close to getting a glimpse of a civilization far more advanced than our own? I sure hope so. If this festering dung heap of a civilization is the best the Universe has got, maybe it’s best that we’re all alone out here. Breakthrough Listen’s observations of ‘Oumuamua begin tomorrow at the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia. Fingers crossed.

    'Prepare for invasion' Ex-MoD UFO chief drafts WAR PLAN for future ALIEN assault

    A FORMER investigator for the Ministry of Defence has drafted a war plan reflecting how he believes the UK and US should respond to being attacked by aliens.

    Nick Pope UFO

    TWITTER / GETTY

    Nick Pope has stressed that it is worth preparing for an alien invasion

    Nick Pope, who used to look into claims about UFOs for the Government, has suggested the UK should prepare for an alien invasion despite it being unlikely.

    He predicts that an extraterrestrial attack would likely see the UK ally with NATO and the US to hit aliens with missiles.

    However, Mr Pope also admitted that the UK would almost definitely be defeated by super-advanced alines in the event of a war.

    His plan also stipulates that the UK may have to rely on its nuclear defences as a last resort.

    The Government’s former UFO investigator said: “I based the document as much on declassified plans for the Iraq War as on my knowledge of UFOs and extraterrestrial life.

    “This is exactly the sort of top-level strategic document that politicians and senior officials need in order to take the very rapid and important decisions.”

    NASA does recognise the likelihood that humans will find alien life relatively soon. But it is widely believed that the chances of an alien invasion are very small.

    However, Mr Pope stressed that it is worth preparing for an alien invasion because its consequences would be so devastating.

    Mr Pope said: “There’s no government plan for an alien invasion, or for other scenarios where we find extraterrestrial life.

    “Aliens capable of getting to Earth would clearly have technology way ahead of ours, so getting into any kind of war should be the last resort.

    “We can only guess at what technology they may have, and what weaponry they might possess.

    “I hope that if aliens arrive on Earth they’ll come as explorers or scientists – but that’s wishful thinking.”

    Speaking to the Sun Online, Mr Pope predicted that if super-advanced aliens did arrive on earth, they would arrive as slavers, zoo keepers or pest controllers.

    The UK would almost definitely be defeated by super-advanced alines in a war, claimed Nick Pope

    He said: “The biggest single thing we can do to protect ourselves is to acknowledge that there’s an issue here.

    “With Nasa and others now openly talking about the possibilities of alien life, we can no longer dismiss this as sci-fi.

    “Is it that hard to believe that we might not be alone, and there might be civilisations out there much older than ours, and thus more advanced?”

    String of Low-Flying Lights Seen Across US May Be Explained

    Flashing lights seen across the country this weekend prompted people to send videos and messages to local media asking if there were UFOs in the sky may be explained.

    Joint Base Charleston told Charleston-based WLTX  that those lights were a group of C-17 cargo jets that were flying in formation from Charleston to Nevada on Saturday and Sunday.

    A spokesman for the base told WLTX that a group of 17 jets from the 437th Airlift Wing took off from their base around 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 9, and were joined on the way by other air military installations and groups, including the 82nd Airborne.

    In all, there were more than 40 C-17s from 10 bases and more than 20 C-130s from three bases that partook in a training exercise involving HALO drops, or high-altitude military parachuting.

    The exercise was a final training exercise for the U.S. Air Force Weapons School located at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, a representative said, to allow mobility Air Force students to apply what they’ve learned over the last five months.

    Witnesses called and wrote into Denver TV station KUSA to say they saw a string of slow-moving lights that appeared to be flying at a low altitude.

    They asked if they were UFOs, or—one of the more creative explanations— if they were Santa’s scout elves on their way back to the North Pole.“Much more creative solutions for what the answer turned out to be,” KUSA reporter Jacob Rodriguez wrote.

    A video of the lights, uploaded to YouTube by Denver’s South Metro fire’s representative, has since been removed. The video was taken from his home in Littleton, Colorado, KUSA reported.

    Rocket engine start-up Relativity Space shared a video of its 3D-printed rocket engine this week that’s stunning, for what it represents for the future of manufacturing and space travel.

    The engine, named the Aeon 1, goes from ignition to full thrust in milliseconds. The entire video (embedded below) only last 10 seconds. While Elon Musk is working on the BFR, Relativity’s 3D printed engine is still a BFD for the future of space.

    Relativity claims that the Aeon 1 engine takes far less time to create than a traditional rocket because it’s 3D printed — around one month instead of six for production, according to this chart that they shared — and has far less individual parts per engine. “Our process reduces the number of component interfaces, making full robotic automation of engine production possible,” the company says.

    Relativity was founded in December 2015 by Tim Ellis and Jordan Noone, aerospace engineers and veterans of space companies Blue Origin and SpaceX, respectively. It first graduated from startup accelerator Y Combinator, before raising eight figures of funding – more than $10 million – led by Social Capital, the Palo Alto, California-based venture capital firm.

    Relativity aims to decrease the price of rocket launches from $100 million to $10 million in four years, 3D print the first rocket — a 90-foot-tall, 7-foot-wide, able to carry 2,000 pounds into orbit — by 2020, and to launch that rocket into space by 2021.

    “The 3D printing and automation of rockets is inevitable,” Ellis told Bloomberg in October.

    Aeon-1 at full thrust, just milliseconds after igniting. 

    Current 3D printing technology is actually slower than traditional welding, so his “inevitability” may take some time to be realized. To get there, Relativity first had to develop its own 3D printer. Enter Stargate, a giant machine with 18-foot long arms, specifically designed with Relativity’s rockets in mind. Relativity says that it is the world’s largest 3D printer to work with metal.

    If the technology continues to develop, Ellis and Noone hope to cut down the development time of a rocket from the many months – and hundreds of workers – currently required to just one month, and with minimal labor.

    They’re still some way off from that goal, but that’s why the first video of their test at NASA Stennis was so exciting. Exclaimed Chamath Palihapitiya, the CEO of Social Capital: “Time to freak out, people.”

    Man says he captured UFO on camera on NW Side of San Antonio


    SAN ANTONIO (KABB/SBG) - A man says he caught a UFO on camera as it flew around the Northwest Side Thursday night.

    The viewer told us he followed the craft at a distance all night and said he spotted three of the "massive" crafts in the air.

    The witness, who identified himself as a former pilot for the Air Force, said "this was no flight path approved by the FAA" and said it wasn't a helicopter "as it made no sound."

    The man said there were at least 10 vehicles in front of him that stopped on the side of the road. He told us the craft then somehow shrunk down in size to land in what he believes was a warehouse off of Interstate 10 near the Loop 410 Interchange.

    The viewer said, "They were absolutely all over last night."

    optical illusion

    The internet loves an optical illusion, and it seems like people are always on the lookout for new ones. For all you people who like having your mind bent a little bit, you’re in luck: Kohske Takahashi, a psychologist at Chukyo University, Japan, has a new illusion for you. It’s called “curvature blindness,” and it may not be obvious at first.

    In this illusion, which he described and explained in the journal i-Perception in November, pairs of wavy lines span the image. These waves, which have consistent peaks and valleys like sine waves, are divided into segments of dark gray and light gray and are laid over a black, white, and gray background.

    Some pairs look curvy, while others look more like zig-zags, especially over the gray background. But here’s the thing: They’re all curvy. Take a look for yourself.

    curvature blindness

    The zig-zag lines are actually curves, even though your eyes are blind to the curvature.

    In the paper, Takahashi explains the principle behind this illusion: The lines that appear to zig-zag are the ones in which the color changes occur at the peaks and valleys. The abrupt corner created by the cutoff between the dark gray and light gray makes it so the viewer perceives the curve as a sharp angle. This perception competes with the more accurate perception of a gentle curve. He notes that this is somewhat different from a situation in which perception is incorrect, because people really do see it.

    “It is notable that observers exactly ‘see’ an illusory zigzag line against a physically wavy line, rather than have an impaired perception,” he writes. “We propose that the underlying mechanisms for the gentle curve perception and those of obtuse corner perception are competing with each other in an imbalanced way and the percepts of corner might be dominant in the visual system.”

    In other words, your brain might tend more toward seeing a corner when there’s confusion about whether it’s seeing a corner or a curve.

    Another popular illusion involving black-and-white lines.

    As we’ve seen with other optical illusions, these phenomena bug us out because we assume the way we see the world is pretty much the way it is. When we find out the way we’re seeing the world is wrong — or at least a little different from the way others see it — it unsettles us with the idea that there’s no actual consensus about reality. While this optical illusion won’t be the next dress illusion, it still makes your eyes cross with perceptual confusion.

    Martian atmosphere is not threatened by solar wind

    In many respects, Mars is but a shell of its former self. About 3-4 billion years ago, it boasted a hot climate that could sustain an active hydrological cycle. There were heavy rains, rivers of flowing waters, even vast oceans. All of these require a thick atmosphere. Today, however, the atmosphere is roughly 100 times less dense than Earth’s, and the Red Planet is still continuously losing gas — expending about 100 grams of its atmosphere into outer space every second.

    Solar wind is regarded as an important factor that can explain this atmospheric loss. However, a grad student at Luleå University of Technology, Sweden, has come to results that say otherwise. According to Robin Ramstad, who studied for his Master of Science degree in Engineering Physics at the university, Mars’ atmosphere is adequately protected from the effects of solar wind despite lacking an Earth-like magnetic dipole.

    Thin air

    Here on Earth, the motion of molten iron alloys in the planet’s outer core acts like a geodynamo which generates a massive magnetic field. Scientists call our planet’s magnetic field the magnetosphere. It extends for several tens of thousands of kilometers into space, well above the atmosphere, sheltering the planet from the charged particles of solar winds and cosmic rays that would otherwise strip away the upper atmosphere, including the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

    Earth isn’t unique in this respect. Jupiter has masses of liquid metallic hydrogen in its outer mantle, creating the largest planetary magnetic field in the solar system. Uranus generates a global magnetosphere closer to the surface, which leads to some very strange quadrupole field effects —  rather than just a north and a south, there are another two poles lurking in a quadrupole field. Mars also used to have a magnetic field but lost it half a billion years after its formation.

    Solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun. First described as a phenomenon in 1859, it has been observed only in the 1960s. According to one mainstream theory, it’s also responsible for the erosion of the early Martian atmosphere, which caused the greenhouse effect to collapse on the planet. At the same time, solar wind interacts with the ionized upper atmosphere, called the ionosphere, and induces a magnetosphere.

    It has long been thought that this induced magnetosphere is insufficient to protect the Martian atmosphere,” says Robin Ramstad. “However our measurements show something different.

    Right: Robin Ramstad points out the position of the Swedish instrument ASPERA-3 on a model of the Mars Express spacecraft (photo: Anastasia Grigoryeva)

    Ramstad studied data beamed back to Earth by the Mars Express orbiter. The spacecraft has an ion mass analyzer mounted that measured ion escape from Mars since 2004.

    The researcher combined and compared measurements of the ion escape under varying solar wind conditions and levels of ionizing solar radiation. His results suggest that solar wind has an effect on the ion escape rate, but it’s rather negligible. Instead, the ion escape rate is more dependent on EUV (extreme ultraviolet) radiation which has a large effect on the total amount of escaped atmosphere.

    Despite stronger solar wind and EUV-radiation levels under the early Sun, ion escape can not explain more than 0.006 bar of atmospheric pressure lost over the course of 3.9 billion years,said Ramstad in a statement.Even our upper estimate, 0.01 bar, is an insignificant amount in comparison to the atmosphere required to maintain a sufficiently strong greenhouse effect, about 1 bar or more according to climate models.

    According to Ramstad, what solar wind mainly does is it accelerates particles that are already escaping the planet’s gravity. It does not, however, increase the ion escape rate.

    If Ramstad is indeed correct the question of where all of Mars’ water has gone will be put back into the scientific limelight.

    #

    How Possible Is The Existence Of Extraterrestrial Life?

    Extraterrestrial Life When aliens arrive in the movies, they typically come from distant galaxies. Extraterrestrial life, however, could exist right here in our solar system, nestled in briny oceans under the surface of icy worlds close to home.

    Many thinkers have been led astray by anthropic assumptions, while others were simply led astray by ignorance. Due to lack of information tells us that it’s prudent to guide ourselves by the notion that we are not special. That is generally the Copernican principle. This principle places the Sun back in the middle of our solar system where it belongs. The sixteenth-century Italian monk Giordano Bruno suggested publicly that an infinite universe was filled with planets that harbor life.

    So far, life on Earth is the only life we know in the universe. But there are compelling arguments to suggest we are not alone. Indeed, most astrophysicists agree there may be life elsewhere in the universe. And, maybe life exists on other planets or moons inside our own solar system. The numbers are, well, astronomical: If the count of planets in our solar system is not unusual, then there are more planets in the universe than the sum of all sounds and words ever pronounced by every human who has ever lived. There is no reason for declaring Earth as the only planet in the cosmos with life.


    The Possibility of Extraterrestrial Life!

    In 2016, scientists announced the discovery of three, Earth-size, rocky planets orbiting around a red dwarf star that’s about the size of Jupiter. Planets in this system gather around their home star in tightly packed orbits—TRAPPIST-1b circles its star once per day. And because red dwarfs are cooler than our sun, experts think that several of these planets could be habitable, despite proximity to their star.

    The closely packed solar system begs a tantalizing question: Are these planets exchanging life via space rocks? Some theories say that life on Earth may have come from Martian rocks. And if that’s the case, Harvard University researchers argue that the odds of the same thing occurring in the TRAPPIST-1 system are magnitudes higher.

    Seeking forward, we first need to determine if life indeed exists in TRAPPIST-1. Telescopes prepared to launch soon will be able to probe planets’ atmospheres in the system. They will be able to detect bio-signatures associated with life as we know it on Earth. Scientists could also search for “red edge” spectral signals that hint at the presence of vegetation.

    If life exists…

    …Researchers could then theoretically verify the panspermia hypothesis, as well. If “red edge” signals are the same on several TRAPPIST-1 planets, that would indicate life sprung forth from a singular source.

    Life relies on “left-handed” amino acids and right-handed sugars. If organisms on TRAPPIST-1 planets all adhere to the same chirality rules, that’s a good sign that life hopped from a planet to another. But if the rules were different on each planet, it would be an indication that life evolved in isolation.

    Alan Stern, the principal investigator of NASA’s New Horizons mission, has another theory to add to all this, which he shared at the recent 49th annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society’s Division for Planetary Sciences.

    As Space.com reports, Stern floated the idea that perhaps intelligent life does exist in other parts of the galaxy. But they live in dark oceans found deep beneath the surfaces of whatever planet they live on. Such oceans should exist in our galaxy, as they do in our own solar system. Look no further than oceans on Pluto, Jupiter’s moons, or Saturn’s moon Titan for evidence of that. Buried oceans would also give life more time to evolve. As it would also protect them from anything that typically only affects the surface.

    “Impacts and solar flares, and nearby supernovae, and what orbit you’re in, and whether you have a magnetosphere, and whether there’s a poisonous atmosphere — none of those things matter,” Stern said to Space.com.

    Why is Extraterrestrial Life discovery still a dream?

    Basically, Earth is unique. The Rare Earth hypothesis argues that planets with complex life, like Earth, are extremely rare and intelligent extraterrestrial life is highly improbable. Hence we are one of a kind.

    Dr. Aditya Chopra, suggest that alien beings are all dead. Life on “habitable” planets failed to emerge quickly enough to stabilize the planet and pave the way for more life.

    Earth was subjected to the Great Filter – Five mass extinction events – but evolved complex creatures. Moreover, Earth had a head start. In a study, Dr. Peter Behroozi said that compared to all the planets that will ever form in the Universe, the Earth is actually quite early. The last star will burn out 100 trillion years from now, and 92% of planets are yet to be born. We are the first but not necessarily last.

    Approx. 46.5 light – years is the distance to the edge of the observable universe (that’s significant distance). We’ve scanned for extraterrestrial life to just around 40,000 light years from Earth; we haven’t even outpassed the bounds of our galaxy, which is 100,000 light – years wide. Extraterrestrial life could simply be too far away for our current technology to reach.

    An Estimate

    Seth Shostak, from the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute, while speaking to Futurism predicted that we would find intelligent alien life within the next 20 years. He even betted everyone “a cup of coffee” that the existence of intelligent extraterrestrials will be confirmed within the next two decades. He further added, “in the last 20 years, understanding of the cosmos has expanded significantly it is now known just how many planets there are that could host alien life.”

    Moreover, he gave a hope by further saying, “We may find microbial life—the kind you’d find in the corners of your bathtub. We may find that a lot sooner, but that remains for the future. But it’s going to happen, I think, in your lifetime.”

    Astronomers chart galaxy orbits in our Local Supercluster

    For the first time, we are not only visualizing the detailed structure of our Local Supercluster of galaxies, but we are also seeing how the structure developed over the history of the universe.

    If you click play on the interactive above, you’ll see the motions of galaxies in our local supercluster, from 13 billion years ago to the present day.

    Where’s our home galaxy, the Milky Way, in this interactive? Look below at the still graphic, for the yellow letters marked MW. Our Milky Way is part of what’s called the Local Group, which spans about 10 million light-years and contains several dozen galaxies. The Local Group, in turn, is part of the Virgo Supercluster, which spans just over 100 million light-years and is thought to contain at least 100 galaxy groups and clusters. The interactive above is part of a study by a team of astronomers from Maryland, Hawaii, Israel, and France. They say it’s the most detailed map ever of the orbits of galaxies in our extended local neighborhood. It shows the past motions of some 1,400 galaxies within 100 million light-years of our Milky Way.

    The study called Action Dynamics of the Local Supercluster. It’s published in the December 4, 2017 issue of the peer-reviewed Astrophysical Journal.

    Our home Milky Way galaxy (MW, yellow) and our companion Andromeda galaxy (M31, red) are participating in a downward flow away from a vast underdense region called the Local Void and toward the Virgo Cluster, represented by the large purple dot in this image. Most galaxies between us and the Virgo Cluster will eventually fall into the cluster but we lie slightly beyond the capture zone.

    Image via R. Brent Tully/ Institute for Astronomy.

    In the interactive, you’ll notice the galaxies are moving toward something, a gravitational attractor represented by the big red dot more or less in the center of the mapped area (and in purple in the still graphic just above). This attractor is the Virgo Cluster, a large cluster of galaxies at the heart of the Virgo Supercluster (all located in the direction to the constellation Virgo in our sky; hence their names).

    The Virgo Cluster alone – which is about 50 million light-years from us, or in the midst of the Virgo Supercluster’s 100 million light-years – has 600 trillion times the mass of our sun. These astronomers explained in their statement that the Virgo Cluster is pulling other galaxies toward itself, and absorbing them:

    Over a thousand galaxies have already fallen into the Virgo Cluster, while in the future all galaxies that are currently within 40 million light-years of the cluster will be captured. Our Milky Way galaxy lies just outside this capture zone. However the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies, each with 2 trillion times the mass of the sun, are destined to collide and merge [with each other] in 5 billion years.

    The study – and the interactive at top – are based on the measurement of 18,000 galaxy distances.

    The astronomers’ statement explained the interactive this way:

    With the interactive model, a viewer can pan, zoom, rotate, and pause/activate the time evolution of movement along orbits. The orbits are shown in a reference frame that removes the overall expansion of the universe.

    So be sure to click on it, and play around with it!

    Artist's concept of the Virgo Supercluster, via Wikimedia Commons.

    Here’s an artist’s concept of the Virgo Supercluster, via Wikimedia Commons. Look toward the center to find our Local Group.

    The lead author of this study is Ed Shaya of the University of Maryland in collaboration with Brent Tully of University of Hawaii, Yehuda Hoffman of Hebrew University in Israel, and Daniel Pomarede of University of Paris-Saclay in France. These scientists used what they said is a novel method for determining galaxy orbits, which they called numerical action.

    Brent Tully said:

    For the first time, we are not only visualizing the detailed structure of our Local Supercluster of galaxies but we are seeing how the structure developed over the history of the universe. An analogy is the study of the current geography of the Earth from the movement of plate tectonics.

    The astronomers’ statement also explained:

    These dramatic merger events are only part of a larger show. There are two overarching flow patterns within this volume of the universe. All galaxies in one hemisphere of the region – including our own Milky Way – are streaming toward a single flat sheet. In addition, essentially every galaxy over the whole volume is flowing, as a leaf would in a river, toward gravitational attractors at far greater distances …

    Representations of the orbits in the Virgo Supercluster can also be seen in the video below:

    Bottom line: A team of astronomers has made the most detailed map ever of the orbits of galaxies in our local supercluster. It shows the past motions of some 1,400 galaxies within 100 million light-years of our Milky Way.

    Sharing the Mystery – Mass Hallucinations

    When I was a kid, maybe about 6 or 7 years old, I was spending Christmas vacation at my Grandparents’ farm. On Christmas Eve that year, myself and several of my siblings and cousins saw what I would later understand to be a UFO. The object was a perfect sphere of soft blue light, but somewhat smaller than the full moon which was on the other side of he sky at the time of the sighting. It remained in a fixed location in the sky before abruptly vanishing.

    The idea that what we had seen at the time was Santa, or the Star of Bethlehem was discussed among us, being children from a religious family. It wasn’t until years down the road I would begin to piece together the concept that what we had seen that night wasn’t a magical phenomenon, but had a more “scientific” explanation: it was quite obviously a spacecraft piloted by extraterrestrials who are observing us for some unknown reason.

    It again wouldn’t be until several more years and experiences later I would develop the current theories I hold for the explanation of these Unidentified Flying Objects that people have been reporting for centuries or more. Ironically enough, I came full circle in a way, as I now feel that the strange lights and objects are perhaps something more mystical in nature that most ufologists say.

    The idea that a race of super advanced biological creatures have traveled farther than our current technology can even see, simply to annoy and/or scare the hell out of people without any observable gain or advantage or logical reason seems a bit much for me. I’m sure in some cases secret military projects could be the cause for some sightings, but by and large, when the military wants to keep things secret from the public, they don’t fly low to the civilians and flash their lights at them. Also, I tend to side with what Stephen Hawkins said on the matter, that if the government is hiding the existence of aliens from the public they are better at that one thing than anything else they do.

    Now, say for a theory what we are seeing up there is not really a physical craft at all, but something from outside of the current reality we exist in. The idea of portal to other dimensions is not a new idea, but what that might really look like is a subject that is often misunderstood. This concept involves a variable that is outside of what our senses and analytical ability are designed to process. While it is easy to picture a two-dimensional shape (a line) growing longer or shrinking from both ends, and a three-dimensional cube growing or contracting height, width depth, etc. We can even stretch our minds a little to visualize the fourth dimension of “time” or entropy by seeing that same three dimensional cube dispersing into smaller cubes and spreading out into space, or doing the opposite and forming a lager cube from smaller constituent cubes coagulating together. In this way, our minds and senses are designed to observe and process information defined within these dimensions. Now, try to expand that same cube into the fifth dimension. Which direction does the edge of the cube go?

    The hypercube https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercube is one illustration of how another dimension would interact with space as we know it, but as far as what something existing in this type of space would look like, well…

    8-cell
    When the light is dim, our minds will “fill in the blanks” so to speak to provide us with the most accurate perception possible. Sometimes, however people overlook details because this perceptual phenomenon can cause us to see only what we were expecting to see, rather than getting the true input from our sensory organs. This might be why when a person is confronted with an object existing in 4+ dimensions, our minds put together strange impossible objects in the sky, like a mishmash of “close enough” approximations of what we are actually seeing, but our minds and sensory organs are not highly enough developed to process yet. That might also explain the feelings of awe or terror that people have prior to and just after a UFO experience. The overload to the nervous system has to find the closest match to be expressed or processed.
    That’s all fine and well you say, but it doesn’t really explain what people are seeing does it? What would cause an additional dimension to suddenly spring into a observer’s perception? It could be a naturally occurring thing like lightning or mineral hot springs, just occurring for a period of time when the conditions are right then vanishing, or they coul be part of a machine or occult metaphysical process operated by independent entities of an unknown nature, they could be psychic projection created in our collective subconscious and displayed in the skies for our group benefit. Or it could be mass hallucinations, which is kind of the same thing.

    Although many people may pass off the idea of mass hallucination as a debunking and move on, in a way, isn’t that an even more profound than hidden master races from distant planets, or mystical apprehensions of the Nth dimension, just the fact that having belief in something, even against conventional logic, if shared in a sincere and open way can have a true and powerful effect on everyone participating. If a person can just have an experience that makes the universe feel bigger and more meaningful, and then to be able to share that with another human being in such a fundamental way that it becomes a simple matter of fact, wouldn’t that be the most magical phenomenon of all?

    New discovery could change the way we look for alien life

    Newfound species shows it’s possible to survive on nothing more than the chemicals in air.

    In brief:

    Scientists search for extraterrestrials and habitable exoplanets based on what we know of life on Earth. But in a breakthrough discovery, researchers found a bacterial species that require only chemicals in the air to survive.

    ANTARCTIC BACTERIA

    For countless years, scientists and enthusiasts have wondered about the possibility of extraterrestrial life. From grey beings with large, haunting, humanoid eyes to microscopic space bacteria, theories about what might exist beyond our orbit have developed and changed drastically over the years and decades. But, while alien searching has evolved from conspiracy theories to advanced space imaging, there is still much we have to learn before extraterrestrial life could be confirmed. But one new discovery in Antarctica might change the way that we look for aliens, and it could be the key to ultimately finding them.

    As described in the journal Nature, scientists have discovered a new bacterium that can survive solely off of chemicals in the air. Discovered in Antarctica, these microscopic organisms can survive off of just hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. Taking the term “extremophile” to the next level, these microbes can survive in some of the most extreme conditions that exist on our planet. These organisms are so unique that they are opening up the potential for finding alien life because, now that we know organisms can exist off of only chemicals in the air, extraterrestrial life could exist in much wilder circumstances than previously thought.

    Lead researcher Belinda Ferrari expanded, “Antarctica is one of the most extreme environments on Earth. Yet the cold, dark and dry desert regions are home to a surprisingly rich diversity of microbial communities. The big question has been how the microbes can survive when there is little water, the soils are very low in organic carbon and there is very little capacity to produce energy from the Sun via photosynthesis during the winter darkness.”

    ADVANCED ALIEN HUNTING

    The conditions necessary for life to exist have evolved as we have grown and learned over time. One of the criteria in considering alien planets as hospitable to life is liquid water. But does the discovery of an organism that essentially survives off of only air change that?

    Related

    This research team reconstructed the genomes of 23 microbes and was able to identify two species of previously-undiscovered bacteria known as WPS-2 and AD3. Living in the soil with other species, these bacteria survive with little sunlight, no geothermal energy, and extremely limited nutrients. As mostly dormant bacteria, these are the first lifeforms every discovered that survive by eating air.

    Ferrari explained that “This new understanding about how life can still exist in physically extreme and nutrient-starved environments like Antarctica opens up the possibility of atmospheric gases supporting life on other planets.”

    While life on other planets might look and be nothing like life on Earth, understanding how life can exist in unusual and never-before-seen circumstances will push us forward to concretely discovering alien life and better understanding where and how aliens are most likely to exist. Exoplanets that once may not have even been candidates to hold life might be re-analyzed to find habitable regions and the potential to hold life. It is apparent that the better we understand life on Earth, the more equipped we are to search for alien life.

    Amateur Astronomers spots ‘massive cigar-shaped UFO’ near the Orion Nebula

    An Amateur astronomer snapped a few extremely interesting images from the Orion nebula, and UFO hunters are turning towards his images as proof as massive, interstellar alien spaceships.

    The Amateur Astronomer from North Carolina was exploring the Orion Nebula when he spotted a strange cigar-shaped UFO. Further analysis of the footage revealed a few mystery objects.

    While the astronomer was focusing on his Newtonian telescope, he observed a massive cylinder-shaped UFO that popped up on the screen of his laptop, capturing the enigmatic event in a single frame that lasted for 30 seconds.

    Notice the Cigar-shaped object to the center-right of the image.

    Immediately after noticing the object that ‘should not have been captured’ near the Orion Nebula, the amateur astronomer turned to MUFON for explanations.

    The amateur astronomer wrote the following report to MUFON:

    I was out collecting data on M42 Orion nebula, as I was fine focusing my 8 in astrograph / Newtonian Telescope this appeared on my laptop screen after the 1st I ran 5 frames @ 30.2-second sequence and it shows the movement of the objects at the bottom of the frames. The single cigar-shaped object was captured in a single 30.2-second frame and the 5-frame sequence followed because I’d thought the thrill was over Not the case. It had backup right behind it in the sequence. It’s not the 1st and surely not the last as I search the night sky for galaxies, nebulae and the truth that’s out there.

    More objects were allegedly spotted, and are visible at the bottom of the image.

    Are these cigar-shaped object really UFO’s, or is there another explanation?

    Furthermore, after observing the UFO, the amateur astronomer noticed that the UFO sighting was not over as he identified several ‘other’ cigar-shaped objects which he also captured in a sequence of 5 frames at 30.2 seconds, and they clearly show the movement of objects at the bottom of the frames.

    However, Facebook page UFO of Interest takes a closer look at the alleged UFOs, and offers a possible explanation proposed by Dave Greg and Jerry Bell from the Facebook group “dazzathecameraman”:


    Here are the images of the mystery objects spotted by the amateur astronomer:

    NASA to make major announcement after Google’s AI makes alien planet-hunting discovery

    NASA is set to hold a ‘major, press conference after its planet-hunting telescope, working together with state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence from Google, made a major breakthrough.

    The agency wrote on their websiteNASA will host a media teleconference at 1 p.m. EST Thursday, Dec. 14, to announce the latest discovery made by its planet-hunting Kepler space telescope. 

    NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope is one of the most respected planet-hunting tools used by astronomers in search for alien life and Earth-like worlds.

    The Kepler Space Telescope was launched into space in 2009 when astronomers were unaware of the number of exoplanets that exist elsewhere in the cosmos. To the surprise of many, in almost nine years, it has shown that planets are very common in the universe and that each star may at least have ONE planet orbiting it.

    According to Astronomers, our universe is teeming with exoplanets.

    Recently, NASA has made a new breakthrough, one that is significant enough to deserve a major press conference.

    Despite the fact that very little information has been offered to the press about the nature of the discovery, scientists believe it is most likely related to exoplanet—Alien worlds orbiting distant stars, and one of our best chances of finding Earth-like planets.

    “The discovery was made by researchers using machine learning from Google. Machine learning is an approach to artificial intelligence, and demonstrates new ways of analyzing Kepler data,” wrote NASA officials in a recently released press release.

    According to NASA, the discovery was made in collaboration with Google’s Artificial Intelligence, which has been sued by experts to analyze the information gathered by different telescopes.

    NASA hopes that by using Artificial Intelligence, it can comb through different discoveries and identify possible exoplanets more swiftly, and hopefully find another planet elsewhere in the universe which can support life as we know it.

    According to NASA, four engineers and scientists will take part in the press conference, including Paul Hertz, who leads Nasa’s astrophysics division, a senior Google software engineer, and two scientists.

    Recently, the telescope has started working on its new project called K2, whose main goal is to search for exoplanets while also searching and analyzing different cosmic phenomena.

    This means that a huge amount of information needs to be processed by astronomers, who have discovered that our universe is teeming with planets that could—at least theoretically—support alien life.

    Many similar groundbreaking discoveries have been announced in similar press conferences held by NASA in the past.

    This is why many people expect that NASA’s latest discovery will be of great importance.

    Despite the fact that many expect the press conference to make an announcement related to exoplanets, many believe that NASA may announce the discovery of Alien life.

    This, however, is highly unlikely.

    A Dangerous asteroid capable of destroying a city skims past Earth without being detected by NASA

    A massive Asteroid recently flew dangerously-close to Earth. Despite the fact that the asteroid—which could have destroyed a city the size of New York—missed us, NASA didn’t see the space rock coming.

    An asteroid skimmed barely past Earth recently.  If it had crashed into Earth, it could have ‘erased’ a city the size of New York.

    The city-killer asteroid flew past Earth at speeds close to 9 kilometers per second. NASA astronomers only detected it a day later.

    If it had crashed into Earth, it could have ‘erased’ a city the size of New York.

    The space rock, called 2017 VL2, is the size of a blue whale it skimmed past Earth at a distance of only 117,480 kilometers- a third of the distance between Earth and the Moon.

    The space threat was first observed by the Mauna Loa observatory in Hawaii at 11:24 UTC on November 10.

    However, this was too late, as the asteroid had already passed near Earth at that time, having achieved its closest approach at 9:50 on November 9.

    Had it impacted a city on Earth, the asteroid would have left a 6 km crater and wreaked havoc.

    “The space rock measures between 16 and 32 meters in diameter, and belongs to the group of Apollo asteroids,” explains The Watchers site. It will not pass near Earth again until the year 2125.

    Currently, astronomers have identified more than 8,000 Apollo-type asteroids.

    According to reports, around 1,500 Apollo asteroids are large enough and may get extremely close to Earth to be considered as potentially dangerous asteroids that could impact our planet.

    Astronomers say that in theory, all NEOs or Near Earth Asteroids, are considered by NASA in order to predict potential impacts.

    NASA says that all NEOs that are greater than 100 meters in diameter and pass within 4.6 million miles are classified as PHAs or potentially hazardous asteroids.

    However, another eery encounter is set to occur just before Christmas when a massive asteroid dubbed as 3200 Phaethon is due to pass near Earth on December 17, Russian astronomers have revealed.

    It is this asteroid which is believed to be responsible for the Geminids meteor shower which occurs between December 13 and December 14, resulting in hundreds of bright meteors to illuminate the sky as they are consumed by Earth’s atmosphere.

    However, despite the fact it offers a stunning night sky view, the massive space rock is considered as a potentially hazardous asteroid whose path misses Earth’s orbit by only 2 million miles– which is small in galactic terms.
