Alien Spacecraft Above The Moon’s Surface?
Alien Spacecraft Above The Moon’s Surface?
In the nearly 20,000 Apollo Mission images they've now released to the public, we are finding alarming evidence of ET space vehicles.
This image, though, requires no altering of exposure or any other filters in order to view a possible alien craft flying near the moon during Apollo 14.
Is it possible that NASA after years of “cleansing” images missed this one?
The object is indeed an alien craft or it is just a photographic defect, a speck of dust on the photograph and no-one cared or bothered with it... or could it be the Command Module?
Gulf Breeze UFO Incident Still Divides the Public 30 Years Later
Gulf Breeze UFO Incident Still Divides the Public 30 Years Later
Reanimation
Three decades ago, a building contractor in Gulf Breeze released strange pictures of circular UFOs to local media. Days later, those photos set off a year-long sky watching phenomenon. The reported incident then became the so-called “Gulf Breeze Sightings,” and turned into part of American lore.
Ed Walters claimed he snapped the pictures from his yard on November 11, 1987. Even after three decades, people are still divided on what took place in late 1987 through 1988 in Gulf Breeze.
The Gulf Breeze event was featured in the 1990s hit series “X Files.” UFOlogist, fictional FBI Special agent Fox Mulder weighed in on the strange incident. Mulder said in a classic 1994 episode “E.B.E.” that he knew the photos were a hoax the first time he saw them.
Mulder is not alone in concluding the photographs that Walters presented were a hoax, an opinion that became even more widespread when Walters decided to move from his home, and the new owner found a model of a flying saucer wrapped in old drafting paper in the attic in 1990.
Walters claimed the model did not belong to him and someone planted it. However, most thought Walter’s pictures were a hoax, and some witnesses came forward claiming to know about the staged UFO.
However, Walters has always maintained the photos he snapped were authentic. He even wrote a book about it titled “Gulf Breeze Sightings.”
While many did not believe Walters’ claim, few others think otherwise, including UFO researcher and physicist Bruce Maccabee, who believes that the photos were real and the model was a hoax squared.
Maccabee said that there were too many other witnesses, including politicians, who claimed to have seen UFOs in the area and not all of them can be ignored.
Artist’s concept of SPT0311-58, a pair of massive galaxies in the very early universe. Researchers say galaxies of this era are “messier” than the ones we see in the nearby universe. Their more jumbled shapes are due to the vast stores of gas raining down on them and their ongoing interactions and mergers with their neighbors.
Our solar system – our sun and family of planets – is thought to have been built from clumps of space stuff sticking together. Likewise, astronomers expected the first galaxies – those that formed shortly after the Big Bang – to resemble the little dwarf galaxies we see today, so that they’d serve as building blocks for larger galaxies that came later. And so nature surprised us by revealing examples of massive, star-filled galaxies seen when the cosmos was less than a billion years old. Now, new observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile have revealed two giant galaxies seen even farther away, and longer ago, when the universe was only 780 million years old, or about 5 percent its current age. These giant, early galaxies – collectively known as SPT0311-58 – appear to be nestled inside an even-more-massive dark matter halo, containing several trillion times the mass of our sun.
The researchers reported their findings in the peer-reviewed journal Nature on December 6, 2017.
They said these two giant, early galaxies are close to each other, less than the distance from Earth to the center of our Milky Way galaxy. That’s why, they think, the galaxies will shortly merge to form the largest galaxy ever observed at that period in cosmic history. Dan Marrone, associate professor of astronomy at the University of Arizona in Tucson and lead author on the paper, said in a statement:
With these exquisite ALMA observations, astronomers are seeing the most massive galaxy known in the first billion years of the universe in the process of assembling itself.
A composite image showing ALMA data (red) of the two galaxies of SPT0311-58. These galaxies are shown over a background from the Hubble Space Telescope (blue and green). The ALMA data show the two galaxies’ dusty glow. The image of the galaxy on the right is distorted by gravitational lensing. The nearer foreground lensing galaxy is the green object between the two galaxies imaged by ALMA.

Located in the Atacama desert of northern Chile, ALMA is one of the world’s most advanced tools for astronomical observing. It’s an interferometer of radio telescopes, which has been fully operation only since March of 2013. It’s made possible by an international partnership between Europe, the United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Chile. But even ALMA couldn’t see so far back into space and time without help.
In this case, the help came from nature itself, which produces what is called a a gravitational lens whenever an intervening massive object, like a galaxy or galaxy cluster, bends the light from more distant galaxies. In a universe of at least 100 billion galaxies (or more), this happen pretty often, but can be tricky to observe. Although galaxies between us and SPT0311-58 bent and magnified their light, sophisticated computer models were required to reconstruct the image of SPT0311-58 as these galaxies would appear in an unaltered state.
Yet the process of teasing out this data from the observations yielded yet more information according to these astronomers:
This ‘de-lensing’ process provided intriguing details about the galaxies, showing that the larger of the two is forming stars at a rate of 2,900 solar masses per year. It also contains about 270 billion times the mass of our sun in gas and nearly 3 billion times the mass of our sun in dust.
Justin Spilker at the University of Texas at Austin, a co-author on the study, commented:
That’s a whopping large quantity of dust, considering the young age of the system.
The astronomers believe the larger galaxy’s pace of star formation was likely triggered by a close encounter with its slightly smaller companion, which already hosts about 35 billion solar masses of stars and is also forming stars at a rate of about 540 solar masses per year.
The new observations also allowed the researchers to infer the presence of a truly massive dark matter halo surrounding both galaxies. Dark matter is thought to provide the pull of gravity that causes the universe to collapse into structures such as galaxies, groups and clusters of galaxies and so on. By comparing their calculations with current cosmological predictions, the researchers found that this halo is one of the most massive that should exist at that time.
Gravitational lensing works – as Albert Einstein explained in his theory of general relativity – mass bends light. The gravitational field of a distant galaxy or galaxy cluster causes light to bend around it. From Earth, we see the light as displaced from where it would otherwise be.
The astronomers said they are seeing these galaxies during a period of cosmic history known as the Epoch of Reionization:
… when most of intergalactic space was suffused with an obscuring fog of cold hydrogen gas. As more stars and galaxies formed, their energy eventually ionized the hydrogen between the galaxies, revealing the universe as we see it today.
Marrone commented:
In any case, our next round of ALMA observations should help us understand how quickly these galaxies came together and improve our understanding of massive galaxy formation during reionization.
To correct for the effects of gravitational lensing in these galaxies, the ALMA data (left panel) is compared to a lensing-distorted model image (second panel from left). The difference is shown in the third panel from the left. The structure of the galaxy, after removing the lensing effect, is shown at right. This image loops through the different velocity ranges within the galaxy, which appear at different frequencies to ALMA due to the Doppler effect.
Bottom line: Astronomers thought galaxies in the early universe would be small. But they’ve just spotted 2 giant galaxies – collectively known as SPT0311-58 – at a time when the universe was only 780 million years old, or about 5 percent its curr }ent age.
A secretive Pentagon program investigating unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and evidence of alien life has been uncovered, revealing several sightings of peculiar aircraft by members of the U.S. military.
But despite the Pentagon insisting the program—first reported by The New York Times on Saturday—ended with the termination of its funding, its backers claim it is still in existence. Below are some of the most bizarre sightings laid out in the declassified reports.
Pentagon UFO Sightings: Las Vegas Research Facility
In order to investigate reports of UFO sightings, a building in Las Vegas was modified to house any materials that were suspected to have come from an unidentified flying object.
A sign off route U.S. 285, north of Roswell, New Mexico, points west to the alleged 1947 crash site of a flying saucer on the Corn Ranch.

This reportedly included metal alloys and plastics, while a section of the facility was also used to study people who claimed to have had contact with the objects that resulted in physical and physiological changes.
The Las Vegas-based facility also described sightings of flying objects that remained airborne despite no visible signs of propulsion or lift.
Pentagon UFO Sightings: ‘Whole fleet’ of Glowing Auras
Among the UFO sightings investigated by the U.S. Department of Defense was a rotating glowing aura that travelled at high speeds. The footage was captured from a Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet, though officials refused to give more details about the time or date of the sightings.
An audio recording from the Navy pilots who witnessed the peculiar aerial phenomena suggests there was more than one of the UFOs. “There’s a whole fleet of them,” one pilot is heard saying.
Another pilot responds: “My gosh. They are all going against the wind, the wind is 120 miles to the west… look at that thing dude.”

Pentagon UFO Sightings: Oval object in San Diego
Program officials also investigated events that took place prior to the program coming into existence, studying videos captured by cameras aboard military aircraft.
This included a 2004 video of a bright oval-shaped object off the coast of San Diego, which was determined by the pilots of the fighter jets pursuing it to be the size of a commercial aircraft.
Pentagon UFO Sightings: ‘Black Money’ Funding
The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program was funded with less than 0.004 percent of the Defense Department’s annual budget, which is partly why it has gone unreported for more than a decade.
The $22 million funding came thanks to Nevada Democrat and UFO enthusiast Harry Reid, who passed the majority of the money to his friend Robert Bigelow’s aerospace research firm Bigelow Aerospace.
If anyone says they have the answers, they’re fooling themselves.
We don’t know the answers but we have plenty of evidence to support asking the questions. This is about science and national security. If America doesn’t take the lead in answering these questions, others will.
Reid referred to these funds as “black money,” as only himself and two other senators—Alaska Republican Ted Stevens and Hawaii Democrat Daniel K. Inouye—knew of the program.
C’est officiel, nous savons maintenant que les OVNIs sont réels, mais sont-ils extraterrestres ?
Nous sommes presque en 2018, et le sujet des Objets Volants Non Identifiés (OVNI) ou du Phénomène Aérien Non Identifié (PANI, un terme qui semble être le nouveau “libellé officiel” du personnel gouvernemental) est maintenant un fait vérifié dans le courant dominant. Tout aussi certains que nous le sommes de plusieurs concepts différents issus de la science dure répétable, ou de l’information sur d’autres phénomènes dans d’autres domaines traitant de l’observation, nous (l’humanité) sommes tout aussi certains de l’existence des OVNIs.
Lorsque l’ex-ministre de la Défense nationale, Paul Hellyer, a déclaré que “les ovnis sont aussi réels que les avions qui volent au-dessus de nos têtes”, il ne plaisantait pas. Des documents, ainsi que des témoignages en direct de douzaines, voire de centaines de personnes de gouvernements et de groupes de renseignements de “haut niveau”ont également parlé publiquement du sujet.
Il y a littéralement trop d’exemples, depuis les généraux quatre étoiles jusqu’aux directeurs d’entreprises militaires comme Lockheed Martin, les directeurs d’agences de renseignement, les chefs de grands comités militaires comme l’OTAN, et bien plus encore.
Les derniers exemples en date seraient Steve Justice, un administrateur de Lockheed Skunkworks (aérospatiale) qui a récemment pris sa retraite il y a 30 ans, maintenant administrateur de To The Stars, il a récemment déclaré :
“Il s’agit d’un concept pour un engin de transport international point à point qui efface les limites actuelles de la distance et du temps de déplacement. Il imite les capacités observées dans le phénomène aérien non identifié en utilisant un système d’entraînement qui modifie la métrique espace-temps. Nous avons un aperçu de la façon dont cela fonctionne, mais nous devons exploiter les technologies de la Division des sciences pour “réaliser” cette capacité.” – Steve Justice, directeur de la Division de l’aérospatiale.
En faisant cette déclaration, il nous dit qu’il y a des embarcations non identifiées qui utilisent ces capacités pour parcourir ce que nous considérons comme de grandes distances.
Un de ses prédécesseurs, Ben Rich (2ème directeur de Lockheed Shunkworks) a également fait des commentaires très intéressants. Vous pouvez en savoir plus à ce sujet et consulter ses commentaires ici.
Robert Bigelow, le fondateur de Bigelow aerospace a récemment déclaré publiquement qu’il savait que “ET” est là. Vous pouvez voir cette interview et en savoir plus ici.
Bien sûr, les témoignages ne sont pas suffisants pour tirer une conclusion, mais étant donné leur position et leurs longs dossiers de “crédibilité”, il est presque ridicule de les ignorer. S’il s’agissait d’une ou deux personnes, il y aurait des raisons de douter, mais lorsqu’il y en a plusieurs centaines, nous savons qu’il y a quelque chose qui se passe, surtout quand leurs rencontres avec des “OVNIs” ont déjà été vérifiées par leur employeur, le gouvernement et par des documents officiels préalablement classifiés.
Puisque beaucoup ne considèrent pas que les témoignages de témoins sont crédibles, peu importe d’où ils viennent, il est toujours important de mentionner les documents, les preuves de suivi radar et plus encore.
Évidemment, c’est un sujet qui interpelle encore beaucoup de gens, ça les brosse dans le mauvais sens du poil et entre en conflit avec des systèmes de croyances ancestraux. C’est une tendance qui s’est manifestée avec de nombreux sujets et de nouvelles découvertes tout au long de l’histoire humaine, les choses changent lentement au fil du temps, mais avec notre développement technologique rapide, qui continue d’augmenter à un rythme exponentiel, nous ne semblons pas si lointain. En fait, nous semblons déjà en être là.
“Nous avons déjà les moyens de voyager parmi les étoiles, mais ces technologies sont enfermées dans des projets noirs, et il faudrait un acte de Dieu pour les faire sortir au profit de l’humanité. Tout ce que vous pouvez imaginer, nous savons déjà comment le faire”
Rappelez-vous, OVNI ne signifie pas à 100% extraterrestre, cependant, c’est l’une des nombreuses possibilités et probabilités qui ont leurs propres preuves pour faire cette affirmation.
Les documents qui ont été rendus publics par plusieurs gouvernements, agences de renseignements et par l’intermédiaire de la Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) indiquent des objets et des rencontres (principalement militaires) avec des objets voyageant à des vitesses inaccessibles et effectuant des manœuvres qu’aucun de nos avions connus ne peut réaliser, dans certains cas, ils défient notre propre compréhension de la physique.
“Au fur et à mesure que le F-4 s’approchait, il perdait toute l’instrumentation et les communications. Lorsque le F-4 s’est éloigné de l’objet et qu’apparemment il n’était plus une menace pour lui, l’avion a retrouvé toutes les communications et instruments de navigation. Un autre objet brillant est sorti de l’objet original. Le second objet s’est dirigé vers le F-4.” (source)
Ci-dessous, un petit discours de Jacques Vallée sur la façon de commencer à apprendre de toutes ces rencontres. C’est un informaticien et astronome qui a travaillé pour la NASA, et plus encore. Il est le plus à même de co-développer la première cartographie informatisée de Mars et pour son travail à SRI International sur le centre d’information réseau d’ARPANET.
Déception gouvernementale
Ce serait le bon moment pour affirmer que, de toute évidence, nos gouvernements nous ont trompés bien souvent et sur divers sujets, il est plus que probable qu’au fur et à mesure que de plus en plus d’informations continueront à se retrouver dans le domaine public, il y aura de bonnes raisons d’avoir un scepticisme accru lorsqu’ils parleront des OVNI et/ou des extraterrestres, comme c’est le cas pour n’importe quoi d’autre.
Le monde dominant est plein d’agendas tordus et de tentatives de modifier notre perception de la vérité et du profit, ou d’autres agendas qui ne sont pas vraiment dans le meilleur intérêt du peuple, mais plutôt dans le meilleur intérêt des “1%”. La guerre mondiale contre la drogue ou le terrorisme en sont de parfaits exemples.
Pour se faire une idée claire de ce sujet, ce qui est presque impossible, il faut faire des recherches indépendantes plutôt que de s’en remettre aux mêmes médias qui ont des liens étroits avec les intérêts des entreprises et du gouvernement, sous le couvert de la “sécurité nationale”.
Cela ne veut pas dire qu’il n’y a pas de bonnes personnes, avec des intentions pures, qui ne font que leur travail dans ces arènes. C’est un sujet compliqué, mais en discutant, il faut toujours garder l’état profond dans le dos de son esprit, car il contrôle la perception géopolitique dans son ensemble, dans la plupart des cas.
Il y a des efforts qui sont faits pour alerter le public, l’effort de To The Stars par Tom Delonge en est un, mais c’est un sujet très compartimenté. Il reçoit de l’information de ceux qui travaillent dans le milieu du renseignement, mais de qui obtiennent-ils cette information et est-ce exact ? Est-ce vrai ? Ou est-ce qu’il y a une sorte de tour de passe-passe, pour quelque raison que ce soit ? Et ceux qui relaient cette information se rendent-ils compte qu’il pourrait y avoir un véritable tour de passe-passe ?
Qui sait ce qui se passe vraiment.
Y a-t-il vraiment des raisons légitimes pour justifier le camouflage après tant d’années ? Était-ce justifié ? Je crois que l’humanité est censée vivre dans la transparence, et nous pouvons et devons gérer ce type d’information, nous étions censés la recevoir. Reconnaître certaines vérités sur la nature de la réalité est une étape importante de notre évolution humaine, car elle nous donne l’occasion de dépasser les paradigmes du passé et d’avancer là où nous sommes censés aller, et peut-être vers les étoiles.
La prise de contrôle corporatif et financier de notre système démocratique a sans aucun doute contribué au secret. Ce sujet a d’énormes implications technologiques et intellectuelles qui pourraient transformer complètement notre planète et aider à créer de nouvelles façons de faire les choses ici. Et, comme c’est le cas pour tout le reste, ceux qui font des milliards et des billions avec l’ancienne façon de faire les choses peuvent aussi avoir leur mot à dire.
Quel type de systèmes de propulsion ces embarcations utilisent-elles ?
Bien sûr, nous savons que les OVNIs sont réels, mais les médias grand public (ainsi que le gouvernement) ont une longue histoire de prendre des événements réels et de les utiliser à leur avantage, et le font généralement en déformant notre perception de ce qui se passe réellement.
Avec ce sujet, comme avec tous les autres, nous ne pouvons tout simplement pas compter sur les services de renseignements gouvernementaux et officiels en tout temps, avec une crédibilité totale.Il est important de se rappeler qu’il y a beaucoup de désinformation qui s’est infiltrée dans ce domaine, et il faut toujours utiliser leur discernement.
Sont-ils extraterrestres ?
L’existence des OVNIs est vérifiée de plusieurs manières différentes, mais l’intelligence extraterrestre est toujours une histoire différente. Plusieurs facteurs conduisent à l’hypothèse extraterrestre. Comme mentionné plus haut, avant que les OVNIs ne soient officiellement “vérifiés”, il y avait de bonnes raisons de croire en leur existence, et maintenant c’est officiel. De la même façon, il est maintenant prouvé que certains de ces engins sophistiqués sont en fait extraterrestres.
“Il y a de fortes chances que des gens de l’espace et d’autres civilisations nous visitent depuis de nombreuses années. Ce qu’ils sont, d’où ils viennent et ce qu’ils veulent devrait faire l’objet d’une enquête scientifique rigoureuse et ne pas faire l’objet d’une dissimulation ridicule par les tabloïds.” µ

Beaucoup de gens, comme Lord Amiral Hill-Norton, sont venus exprimer la même chose, et ont dit qu’ils ont une grande connaissance de l’intelligence extraterrestre en ce qui concerne le phénomène OVNI.
Voici un document du FBI discutant des corps extraterrestres et un vaisseau (pages 21 et 22), voici un article avec un document intéressant de la CIA qui fait référence à des corps extraterrestres et une rencontre militaire. Il y a plusieurs exemples que l’on peut trouver dans la littérature, qui sont à la fois bienveillants et malveillants.
Vous trouverez ci-dessous une discussion intéressante avec Richard Dolan, l’un des plus éminents spécialistes mondiaux du sujet. Il va un peu plus loin sur l’hypothèse extraterrestre. Si vous voulez en savoir plus sur le sujet, c’est un excellent point de départ.
“C’est ma thèse que les soucoupes volantes sont réelles et qu’elles sont des vaisseaux spatiaux d’un autre système solaire. Je pense qu’ils sont peut-être habités par des observateurs intelligents, membres d’une race qui a peut-être étudié notre Terre pendant des siècles”

Le Pentagone reconnaît l'existence d'un programme d'étude des ovnis (vidéo)
Le Pentagone reconnaît l'existence d'un programme d'étude des ovnis (vidéo)
Le Pentagone a reconnu l’existence d’un mystérieux programme chargé d’enquêter sur les observations d’objets volants non identifiés (ovni).
Le ministère de la Défense américain assure que le programme s’est arrêté en 2012, mais le New York Times affirme que les enquêtes sur les incidents impliquant des ovnis, rapportés par les militaires, continuent.
Entre 2007 et 2012, le programme baptisé Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (Programme d’identification des menaces aérospatiales avancées) a documenté d’étranges objets volants, évoluant à grande vitesse sans propulsion visible ou en position stationnaire sans moyen apparent de portance, selon le New York Times.
L’une des vidéos obtenues par le New York Times montre deux avions de chasse américains qui poursuivent un objet ovale de la taille d’un avion de ligne, au large de la côte californienne, en 2004.
Le Pentagone a déclaré dans un communiqué que le programme s’est terminé en 2012.
« Il a été déterminé qu’il y avait d’autres priorités qui méritaient un financement et qu’il était dans le meilleur intérêt du ministère d’apporter un changement », indique le Pentagone.
Le programme doté d’un budget de 22 millions de dollars, et seulement connu d’un petit nombre de responsables, a été initié par l’ancien sénateur démocrate du Nevada, alors chef de file de la majorité au Sénat, Harry Reid, qui portait un intérêt particulier aux phénomènes inexpliqués.
La majeure partie de l’argent du programme est allée à une société de recherche aérospatiale dirigée par Robert Bigelow, un entrepreneur milliardaire et un ami de longue date de d’Harry Reid, selon le New York Times.
« Nous n’avons pas les réponses, mais nous avons beaucoup d’éléments pour justifier de se poser des questions », a expliqué Harry Reid sur son compte Twitter après la publication de l’enquête du New York Times, samedi.
« C’est une question scientifique et de sécurité nationale. Si l’Amérique ne se charge pas de répondre à ces questions, d’autres le feront.
An interstellar asteroid is analyzed for signs of alien life, the last man to walk on the moon releases chapters of his diary, astrophotographers across the world capture beautiful images of the Geminid meteor shower and astronauts politely wait for their new crewmembers to finally watch the new 'Star Wars' film aboard the International Space Station. Here are this week's top stories on Space.com.

1. President Trump directs NASA to return to the moon.
On Dec. 11, President Trump signed Space Policy Directive 1, which orders NASA to send humans back to the moon. However, the administration has not offered further information about a timeline for this effort, nor estimated budget information to make the return to the lunar surface a reality.
After five months in orbit aboard the International Space Station (ISS), Russian cosmonaut Sergey Ryazanskiy, Italian astronaut Paolo Nespoli, and American astronaut Randy Bresnik touched down in Kazakhstan on Thursday (Dec. 14). Their departure aboard the Soyuz MS-05 spacecrat marked an official end to Expedition 53, the 53rd crewed mission to the ISS since the year 2000.
On Dec. 11, Harrison Schmitt released the fifth chapter of his diary, which recounts his experiences launching to the moon as a lunar module pilot on NASA's Apollo 17 mission on that day in 1972. Schmitt is currently drafting his account of the epic journey to share with the public.

4. New alternative to dark matter is published
A Swiss astrophysicist has proposed the "cotensor analysis," a concept which offers an alternative to the notion of dark matter. The elusive, invisible substance thought to make up more than 80 percent of the universe's total mass may not be the source behind many mysterious cosmic phenomena after all, and activity that has previously been attributed to dark matter, like the rotation rate of individual galaxies, may be explained with the study's new model, the researchers say.
5. Astronauts to watch latest 'Star Wars' film from far, far away.
NASA transmitted a digital copy of the latest "Star Wars" film to the International Space Station (ISS), but since three new crewmembers are set to join the ISS on Sunday (Dec. 17), the film screening may be held off until then. "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" hit movie theaters on Friday (Dec. 15).
In another step toward total rocket reusability, SpaceX successfully launched and landed a previously flown rocket on Friday (Dec. 15). The payload aboard the two-stage Falcon 9 rocket was Space X's Dragon capsule, which brought scientific experiments, supplies and (perhaps) Christmas presents to the International Space Station.
"Shooting stars" lit up the sky this week as the Geminid meteor shower peaked on the evening of Dec. 13 into the morning of Dec. 14. The spectacle occurs each year as Earth passes through a cloud of meteoroids associated with asteroid 3200 Phaethon. The rain of space rock particles can cause meteor rates of up to 100 per hour.
A preliminary design for a 2018 United States Postal Service (USPS) stamp depicts Sally Ride, the first American women in space, with the Challenger space shuttle. According to a USPS press release from Tuesday (Dec. 12), her likeness will be featured on a stamp series sometime next year to commemorate her groundbreaking launch into space in June 1983.

9. Google machine-learning tech used in new exoplanet discovery.
Scientists discovered a new exoplanet orbiting the star Kepler-90 by using Google artificial intelligence to analyze archival data from NASA's Kepler mission. This planet, known as Kepler-90i, is the eighth known in the system, meaning Kepler-90 is now tied with our own sun as the star that hosts the most planets.
On Thursday (Dec. 14), scientists from the Breakthrough Listen project announced that their initial scans of the needle-shaped interstellar asteroid 'Ouamuamua with the Green Bank radio telescope had revealed no potential signals from an alien civilization to date. The team will continue to analyze the data, and it plans to conduct three more observation "blocks" of 'Oumuamua in the near future as well.

"It's a great day to see Dragon back on ISS again," spacecraft communicator Leslie Ringo radioed the International Space Station (ISS) crew from NASA's Mission Control Center in Houston. SpaceX launched the Dragon capsule Friday (Dec. 15).
"It's a beautiful spacecraft and we're looking forward to digging into it and getting some science on board," astronaut Joe Acaba of NASA replied from the station. Acaba assisted crewmate Mark Vande Hei, who controlled the station's arm during the Dragon capture.
Sunday's arrival marked the second cargo delivery mission for this SpaceX Dragon capsule. It last visited the station in April 2015. SpaceX also reused the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket that launched the Dragon, with the booster landing on a pad to mark the company's 20th successful landing. SpaceX has developed its reusable rocket technology to lower the cost of spaceflight.
For this mission, SpaceX's 13th station resupply flight for NASA, the Dragon delivered nearly 4,800 lbs. (2,177 kilograms) of supplies and scientific gear for astronauts on the space station. Dragon will stay at the space station until mid-January, when it will return to Earth and splash down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Baja California, allowing SpaceX and NASA to recover experiment results and other gear.
Today's Dragon arrival capped a busy day for the International Space Station. Just hours earlier, at 2:21 a.m. EST (0721 GMT), a Russian Soyuz rocket launched three new crewmembers toward the orbiting lab from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
Russian cosmonaut Anton Shkaplerov, Norishige "Neemo" Kanai of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and astronaut Scott "Maker" Tingle of NASA launched aboard a Soyuz space capsule and will join the station's Expedition 54 crew later this week. The trio is scheduled to dock at the space station early Tuesday (Dec. 19) at 3:43 a.m. EST (0843 GMT).
Pentagon admits running secret UFO investigation for five years
Pentagon admits running secret UFO investigation for five years

The truth is finally out there, after the Pentagon admitted it ran a secret UFO investigation programme for five years until 2012.
The Department of Defense’s own “X-Files” operation, known by the less catchy title of the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, was closed after a change in funding priorities, it said.
But the remarkable revelation has raised more questions than answers, including whether the programme has been completely shut down, or just covered up further.
While the Pentagon claims it ended five years ago, it said it continued to take seriously “all threats and potential threats to our people”.
The military intelligence official Luis Elizondo, who ran the programme on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring, according to the New York Times, which broke the story, told the paper it was only the government funding that had dried up. He said activities continued under the direction of his successor, whom he declined to name.
Either way the revelation is likely to provide some satisfaction to UFO enthusiasts, often dismissed as conspiracy theorists.
Nick Pope, who used to run the British government’s UFO project, said: “The take-home message here is that there’s probably something out there, but we don’t know what it is. It’s an extraordinary revelation, not least because it directly contradicts the many specific denials that the US government has issued previously when asked about this subject, and their involvement in it.
“It precisely reflects my own experience of this intriguing but frustrating subject with the British government. Like our US colleagues, we too denied – even to parliament – that we were undertaking secret studies into the UFO phenomenon and consistently downplayed the true extent of our interest and activity at the Ministry of Defence.”
The New York Times said the project, parts of which remain classified, received $22m (£18.7m) each year, hidden away in US Department of Defense (DoD) budgets worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
It said its initial funding came largely at the request of the former Senate leader Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat long known for his enthusiasm for space phenomena. He was quoted as saying: “I’m not embarrassed or ashamed or sorry I got this thing going. I think it’s one of the good things I did in my congressional service. I’ve done something that no one has done before.”
Bill Clinton previously said that, during his time in the White House, he had tried to find out if there were any secret “X-Files”, concluding: “If so, they eluded me.”
In the UK, 209 files and approximately 52,000 pages of information on UFOs were released during a five-year rolling disclosure programme that concluded in 2013, containing details of about 6,000 separate observations reported to the British authorities since 1984.
In 2009, the Ministry of Defence closed down its hotline for UFO sightings, stating: “In over 50 years, no UFO report has revealed any evidence of a potential threat to the United Kingdom.”
Responding to the revelations about its activities, the Pentagon spokeswoman Laura Ochoas told Reuters: “The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ended in the 2012 timeframe. It was determined that there were other, higher priority issues that merited funding and it was in the best interest of the DoD to make a change.”
She added: “The DoD takes seriously all threats and potential threats to our people, our assets, and our mission and takes action whenever credible information is developed.”
Pope said: “This isn’t quite the ‘spaceship in a hangar’ smoking gun the UFO lobby was hoping for, but it’s as close as those of us who have looked at this subject from within government will ever go to saying: ‘Yes, this is real.’”
For most people, any mention of the term “UFO” inevitably conjures up imagery of all-things airborne and saucer-shaped. In reality, however, unidentified flying objects come in a dizzying array of shapes – and have done so for decades. In other words, the classic Flying Saucer is merely one facet of an infinitely larger puzzle, as will now become graphically apparent. On numerous occasions throughout the latter stages of the Second World War, military pilots from Britain, Germany, Japan, Poland, and the United States reported seeing strange, seemingly intelligently-controlled, aerial globes of light that furiously pursued their aircraft, and at times even engaged in dogfights with the mystified aircrews. They were the Foo Fighters.
A Royal Air Force report of 3 February 1944, from the crew of a Lancaster bomber, describes a typical encounter: “It was a ball of red fire on port side 2 miles away at same height with yellowish red flame coming out behind and black smoke. It was 30/40 mph faster than the Lancaster. It went like this for a period of ¾ to 1 minute. It did not explode at any time. Fizzled out and not seen again. The smoke was very black and showed up well against grayish night background. It followed when Lancaster went into a dive and again on corkscrewing. It seemed to go out once but sprang into life again when Lancaster changed from dive to starboard into a corkscrew.”
As the following statement – extracted from an article that appeared in the 13 December 1944 issue of the South Wales Argus newspaper – makes clear, initial theories were focused upon the idea that the Foo Fighters were the work of the Nazis: “The Germans have produced a “secret” weapon in keeping with the Christmas season. The new device, which is apparently an air defense weapon, resembles the glass balls which adorn Christmas trees. They have been seen hanging in the air and are apparently transparent.”Problematic with the theory that the Foo Fighters were weapons of the Nazis, however, is the revelation that Hitler’s minions were having their own encounters with such objects, and assumed that Allied forces were responsible for their creation! Needless to say, the matter was never fully resolved and the Foo Fighters ultimately vanished as mysteriously and as quickly as they had first appeared.
The Ghost Rockets were curious missile-like objects that were predominantly seen in Scandinavian skies in 1946: one year after the Foo Fighters vanished, and only twelve months before the Flying Saucer burst forth onto the world’s stage. Astonishingly, somewhere in the region of two thousand sightings were made between May and December of that year, with August 9 and August 11 seeing the largest volume of encounters – including some that were corroborated on radar.
Search for “ghost rocket” seen crashing July 19, 1946, in Lake Kölmjärv, Sweden. by Swedish Air Force officer Karl-Gösta Bartoll (pictured).
Interestingly, the August 1946 encounters fell directly within the peak of the annual Perseid meteor-shower. Problematic when it comes to dismissing the whole affair as a case of mistaken identity, however, is the fact that most of the Ghost Rocket incidents fell firmly outside of the time-frame of the Perseid shower. And the fact that some of the witnesses reported seeing the devices changing direction in the sky would seem to effectively eliminate meteors as the culprits.
Another conventional theory addressed at the time was the possibility that the Ghost Rockets were the work of the Russians, who were capitalizing upon the rocket research of German scientists stationed at Peenemünde in the 1940s. It is a historical fact that a number of such scientists were indeed employed by the Russians after the defeat of Nazi Germany, and did expand upon the work that had led to the production of the deadly V-1 and V-2’s that caused considerable damage to the British Isles during the War. As a result of this potentially worrying scenario, the Swedish military quickly issued a directive requesting that newspapers not report on the estimated speeds of the objects, or their trajectories; since this information would be vital to those test-flying the machines.
Nevertheless, as with the theory that the Ghost Rockets were meteors, a possible Russian connection to the puzzle was never confirmed either. Twelve months later, however, the Ghost Rockets were eclipsed by a new, and much more famous, breed of UFO.
The saga of the Flying Saucer began with the pilot Kenneth Arnold, whose 24 June 1947 encounter at the Cascade Mountains, Washington State, kicked off the modern era of UFO sightings. At approximately 3.00 p.m. on the afternoon in question, Arnold was searching for an aircraft that had reportedly crashed on the southwest side of Mt. Rainier. At the time of its occurrence, Arnold’s encounter attracted the keen interest of not just the public and the media, but also that of the all-powerful Federal Bureau of Investigation. The following is a verbatim statement made by Arnold himself, and taken from previously Secret FBI records of 1947:
“I hadn’t flown more than two or three minutes on my course when a bright flash reflected on my airplane. It startled me as I thought I was too close to some other aircraft. I looked every place in the sky and couldn’t find where the reflection had come from until I looked to the left and the north of Mt. Rainier, where I observed a chain of nine peculiar looking aircraft flying from north to south at approximately 9,500 feet elevation and going, seemingly, in a definite direction of about 170 degrees.”
Arnold stressed that the objects were approaching Mt. Rainier very rapidly and he was puzzled by their physical appearance: “I thought it was very peculiar that I couldn’t find their tails but assumed they were some type of jet plane. The more I observed these objects, the more upset I became, as I am accustomed and familiar with most all objects flying whether I am close to the ground or at higher altitudes. The chain of these saucer-like objects [was] at least five miles long. I felt confident after I would land there would be some explanation of what I saw [sic].”
And from that day forth, the world was forever changed: that most mysterious of all aerial intruders, the Flying Saucer, was well and truly born. For the next three decades, countless sightings of such objects were reported all across the planet; making the subject truly one of global proportions. In the 1980s, however, the Flying Saucer was firmly elbowed out of the picture by a new player in town: the Flying Triangle.
For more than two decades, sightings of large, triangular-shaped UFOs, usually described as being black in color, very often with rounded – rather than angled – corners, and that make a low humming noise, have been reported throughout the world. he sheer proliferation of such reports has led some ufological commentators to suspect that the so-called Flying Triangles are prime examples of still-classified aircraft, the development of which was secretly begun in the 1980s by elements of the United States’ Department of Defense and Air Force. Not everyone is so sure that this particular theory has merit to it, however. Consider the following.
On the night of 31 March 1993, an event occurred that was personally investigated by the Ministry of Defense’s then-UFO-investigator, Nick Pope. Reportedly, it involved the sighting of a huge Flying Triangle seen in the early hours of the morning in the direct vicinity of RAF Shawbury, Shropshire. Pope was able to speak with the chief witness to the Flying Triangle – namely, the Meteorological Officer at Shawbury – and offers his recollections on the intriguing conversation:
“Military officers are very good at gauging sizes of aircraft and they’re very precise. His quote to me was that the UFO’s size was midway between that of a C-130 Hercules and a Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet.” Pope continues: “He had eight years worth of experience with the Royal Air Force; and a Met. Officer is generally much better qualified than most for looking at things in the night sky. And there were other factors too: he heard this most unpleasant low-frequency hum, and saw the craft fire a beam of light down to the ground. He felt that it was something like a laser beam or a searchlight. The light was tracking very rapidly back and forth and sweeping one of the fields adjacent to the base. He also said – and he admitted this was speculation – that it was as if the UFO was looking for something.
“The speed of the UFO was extremely slow – no more than twenty or thirty miles per hour, which in itself is quite extraordinary. As far as the description is concerned, he said that it was fairly featureless – a sort of flat, triangular-shaped craft, or possibly a bit more diamond-shaped. He also said that the beam of light retracted into the craft, which then seemed to gain a little bit of height. But then, in an absolute instant, the UFO moved from a speed of about twenty or thirty miles per hour to a speed of several hundreds of miles per hour – if not thousands. It just suddenly moved off to the horizon and then out of sight in no more than a second or so.”
Although the Flying Saucers, Ghost Rockets, Flying Triangles and Foo Fighters are all integral parts of the UFO puzzle, long before each and every one of them appeared in our skies, there was yet another unknown, aerial intruder whose presence still creates controversy to this day: the Phantom Airship. Very much the product of the latter years of the 19th Century, the Phantom Airships were, as their name suggests, often Zeppelin-like devices that were seen on countless occasions during the years in question; and particularly so in the night-skies of the United States.
Interestingly, even back then, theories abounded that the Airships were piloted by extra-terrestrials. For example, in 1897, none other than the Washington Times reported on the theory that the mysterious vehicles represented “a reconnoitering party from Mars.” Similarly, in the same time frame, the Saint Louis Post-Dispatch speculated that “these may be visitors from Mars, fearful, at the last, of invading the planet they have been seeking.”
One of the most famous – or, rather, infamous – incidents of the Phantom Airship variety allegedly occurred at the little Texas town of Aurora on 17 April 1897. So the wild story goes, on the day in question, an Airship slammed into a windmill owned by a local man, Judge J.S. Proctor, practically destroying the craft, and killing its diminutive alien pilot. Strange wreckage, described as being a combination of aluminum and silver, and adorned with hieroglyphics, was rumored to have been scooped up by the locals, and the body of the alien visitor was said to have been buried in the local cemetery. Whether true, a hoax, a practical joke, or something else, the town of Aurora still to this day attracts those curious about this early Roswell-style event.
Quite clearly, UFOs are forever changing. While we could speculate endlessly upon the issue of what type of UFO will one day replace the now-ubiquitous Flying Triangle, only the intelligence behind the phenomenon know the answer to that intriguing question.
Which news is bigger: Tom deLonge’s To The Stars Academy (TTSA) releasing what it calls “The first official UAP footage ever released by the USG” or The New York Times and Politico both releasing reports revealing a secret multi-million-dollar Pentagon program set up 10 years ago by a leading senator to look into unidentified flying objects or unidentified aerial phenomena? How about the news that both happened on the same day? Circle the date – this could be a big one.
“Presented here is the first official evidence released by the US government that can be rightfully designated as credible, authentic confirmation that unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) are real.”
That’s how TTSA announced not one but three videos of US military planes encountering unidentified aerial phenomenon. (The first two videos can be seen here). The so-called GIMBAL video was captured by a US Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet using the Raytheon AN/ASQ-228 Advanced Targeting Forward-Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) pod and includes commentary of the pilots being amazed by what they’re seeing and trying to determine what it is. The so-called 2004 Nimitz FLIR1 video is described as “the only official footage captured by a US Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet present at the 2004 Nimitz incident off the coast of San Diego.” Both videos come with detailed commentary and additional data.
At the same time, The New York Times and Politico reported that now-retired Senator Harry Reid, D-Nev, helped the Pentagon establish The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, a non-classified yet extremely secret program that received its appropriation (i.e. taxpayer money which ultimately totaled $20 million) in 2007 to research UAPs/UFOs encountered by pilots out of concern (at least publicly) that they may be secret aircraft being tested by China or Russia.
“I’m not embarrassed or ashamed or sorry I got this thing going. I think it’s one of the good things I did in my congressional service. I’ve done something that no one has done before.”
Harry Reid
Harry Reid told this to the Times, which also confirmed that former military intelligence official Luis Elizondo was responsible for overseeing the program until 2012, when the funding ran out. and that while its congressional funding dried up in 2012, somehow the program is still active with the CIA and the Navy. Meanwhile, Politico said what everyone has been thinking:
“The revelation of the program could give a credibility boost to UFO theorists, who have long pointed to public accounts by military pilots and others describing phenomena that defy obvious explanation, and could fuel demands for increased transparency about the scope and findings of the Pentagon effort, which focused some of its inquiries into sci-fi sounding concepts like “wormholes” and “warp drives.”
Is the released of the videos by the To The Stars Academy related to The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program? Well, Luis Elizondo resigned from the program to become one of the principles of TTSA. Does this vindicate Tom deLonge, who has been accused of not coming through on his big promises of big revelations? That remains to be seen.
Whatever the case, December 16, 2017, could some day be remembered as the start of government UFO disclosure.
Elk jaar publiceert het Belgisch UFO-meldpunt opnieuw haar cijfers in een jaarverslag. Het aantal UFO-meldingen is in 2016 bijna gehalveerd in vergelijking met het vorige jaar. Het hoogste aantal meldingen is in 2016 afkomstig uit Oost-Vlaanderen en Antwerpen.
Er werden vorig jaar 143 meldingen genoteerd. Dat betekent een daling van 89 waarnemingen in vergelijking met 2015 toen 232 meldingen binnenkwamen. De aanzienlijke daling van het aantal meldingen in Vlaanderen komt deels doordat het Belgisch UFO-meldpunt vanaf februari 2016 gebruik maakte van een nieuwe werkmethodiek.
Zo wordt aan de ‘waarnemer’ gevraagd om alleen nog verschijnselen te melden waarvan de mogelijke verklaring niet terug te vinden is op hun pagina 'verklaringen'. Daarnaast kwamen er ook 51 meldingen binnen die als 'gegevens onvoldoende' werden geëvalueerd.
Vooral in Antwerpen en Oost-Vlaanderen Het grootste aantal meldingen voor 2016 was afkomstig uit Oost-Vlaanderen (33 meldingen). In Antwerpen werd met 7 meldingen het hoogste aantal meldingen voor een stad of gemeente genoteerd. De grootste piek aan meldingen was in augustus en september, mogelijk door het mooie weer.
VS POMPTE JAARLIJKS 22 MILJOEN IN GEHEIM UFO-ONDERZOEK
VS POMPTE JAARLIJKS 22 MILJOEN IN GEHEIM UFO-ONDERZOEK
Het ministerie van Defensie van de VS bevestigt dat het in stilte onderzoek deed naar onverklaarbare luchtfenomenen. Het programma liep van 2007 tot 2012 in het Pentagon. Dat schrijft de New York Times.
Het zogenaamde 'Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Programme' kostte jaarlijks 22 miljoen dollar. Volgens de krant kwam het programma tot stand onder impuls van Harry Reid, de senator uit Nevada, die de Democratische fractie in het hogerhuis leidde van 2005 tot januari dit jaar, toen hij het Congres verliet. De linksere Democraten verkregen een meerderheid in de Senaat nadat ze de parlementsverkiezingen in 2006 hadden gewonnen.
Bigelow Aerospace Het merendeel van de 22 miljoen dollar die het programma kostte, ging naar Bigelow Aerospace, dat gevestigd is in Reids thuisstaat. Het bedrijf, dat nog steeds federale contracten heeft, ook met de NASA, is eigendom van multimiljardair Robert Bigelow, die de NY Times omschrijft als vriend van Reid.
Op het nummer van Bigelow Aerospace in Las Vegas nam niemand op. De voicemail op het nummer was buiten werking.
De NY Times bericht dat de officier die het programma sinds 2007 leidde, Luis Elizondo, zegt dat het doorliep nadat de financiering was stopgezet in 2012. Elizondo verliet het Pentagon in oktober.

“Ik schaam me er niet voor dat ik dit in gang heb gezet,” zei de senator tegen de New York Times. En op Twitter schreef hij: “The truth is out there.”
Glowing Auras and ‘Black Money’: The Pentagon’s Mysterious U.F.O. Program
The shadowy program began in 2007 and was largely funded at the request of Harry Reid, the former Senate majority leader, who has had a longtime interest in space phenomena.
De officier die het programma sinds 2007 leidde, Luis Elizondo, zegt dat het doorliep nadat de financiering was stopgezet in 2012.
Drie ongewone video’s
Elizondo, die het Pentagon in oktober verliet, probeerde drie ongewone video’s vrij te krijgen voor het grote publiek.
In de video’s is te zien hoe piloten proberen hun radars te locken op ovaalvormige schepen. De vreemde objecten lijken even te zweven om vervolgens weg te schieten.

‘Buitenaards moederschip’ gespot bij het ISS. Is dit een laserstraal?
Er zijn vreemde beelden opgedoken van het moment waarop volgens complottheoretici door een buitenaards moederschip een laserstraal wordt afgevuurd op het internationale ruimtestation ISS.
In de video zijn een aantal heldere lichten te zien boven het ruimtestation. Vervolgens lijkt er een rode lichtstraal te worden afgevuurd vanaf het object, richting het ISS.
De beelden, die inmiddels zo’n 40.000 keer zijn bekeken, zijn op YouTube gezet door UFO-jager Streetcap1.
Vreemd
“Kijk naar het rode licht dat naar het ruimtestation gaat,” zegt hij in het filmpje. “Dat is nogal vreemd.”
“Misschien is het een lensflare, ik weet niet wat het veroorzaakt,” vervolgde hij. “In de uren hiervoor was dit niet te zien.”
Hij zegt dat vooral de vorm van het object hem interesseerde.
Bezoeker
Het ISS, dat op 320 kilometer hoogte rondjes om de aarde draait, leek niet te worden beïnvloed door de ‘laser’.
Het onbekende object doet volgens de Daily Mail denken aan andere vermeende schepen die bij het ruimtestation zijn gespot.
“Ik heb me al vaak afgevraagd of een ‘bezoeker’ al contact heeft gelegd met het ISS of is aangemeerd,” reageerde Cindy WH-Witter op de video.
Reflectie
“Wat was die rode straal? Het zou van alles kunnen zijn, van informatie tot teleportatie. Die straal is echt, dat is het enige wat zeker is,” voegde ze toe.
Captain Jay zei: “De kleur rood kan gegevens op het hoogste niveau opslaan en wat je hier ziet is mogelijk het uitwisselen of verzamelen van data.”
Niet iedereen was overtuigd. Erika Demiral zei: “Het is waarschijnlijk een reflectie van een elektrisch paneel van het ISS.”
First Official UFO Footage Released By The U.S. Government
First Official UFO Footage Released By The U.S. Government
A paradigm shift is happening. The first official USG footage of UFO’s has been released to the public and brought to you byTo The Stars Academy.
Gimbal is the first of three US military videos of unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP) that has been through the official declassification review process of the United States government and has been approved for public release.
This footage, and all official USG footage you will see on TTS Academy’s community of interest (COI), comes with essential chain-of-custody documentation validating that it is received in its original and unaltered form and is authentic.
The US Department of Defense uses this process in order to meticulously ensure that information and material retain their integrity without revealing sources and methods.
This footage is apart from anything else that has made its way to the public domain, by establishing its authenticity and thereby giving it enormous historical significance.
Read the full analysis of what you are observing in the video HERE.
FLIR1 is the second of three US military videos.
It is the only official footage captured by a US navy F/A-18 Super Hornet present at the 2004 Nimitz incident off the coast of San Diego.
Like Gimbal, this footage comes with crucial chain-of-custody (CoC) documentation because it is a product of US military sensors, which confirms it is original, unaltered, and not computer generated or artificially fabricated.
The CoC establishes the authenticity and credibility that this version is the original footage taken from one of the most advanced sensor tracking devices in use.

Funded at the request of Harry Reid, the program probed a number of encounters military pilots had with aircraft they believed didn’t operate like anything they had seen before.
BREAKING NEWS!New York Times Releases UFO Footage From US Government AlongWith Story About Secret UFO Program! Story Simultaneously Posted On Politico! To The Stars Academy and Bigelow Aerospace Involvement!
Listen to George Knapp and Alejandro Rojas discuss this news on Coast to Coast AM Sunday night, December 17, 2017!
In some of the most important UFO news to be released in years, the New York Times and Politico have posted stories on a secret UFO program ran by the Department of Defense, who worked with Bigelow Aerospace. The program was initiated by Harry Reid who was convinced to undergo the project by Robert Bigelow, and partially influenced by a pro-UFO comment made to him by astronaut John Glenn. Reid told the New York Times he is in no way embarassed by funding this important project. The public first heard of the project during the press conference announcing the To The Stars Academy (TTSA), created by Tom DeLonge. Luis Elizondo, who ran the UFO department, retired in October to join TTSA and revealed the existence of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, the progam to look into UFO reports.
