Scientist reveals photos and evidence confirming the existence of aliens before dying
Scientist reveals photos and evidence confirming the existence of aliens before dying
During immemorial times, human beings have been wondering if we are alone in the universe. In recent years, certain evidence is emerging that seems to demonstrate that the existence of extraterrestrial life is closer than we think. On October 5, a team of British scientists led by Professor Milton Wainwright of the University of Sheffield, England, publicly released an amazing photograph showing an organism of extraterrestrial origin
But this type of discovery has also given way to endless conspiracy theories, which point directly to the main governments of our planet to hide evidence, and even to be cooperating with advanced extraterrestrial civilizations.
And when everything seemed to be part of the imagination of some conspiranoics and ufologists, now the scientific community is again marked by public opinion, this time by the surprising statements of an aerospace scientist before his death. Boyd Bushman, who passed away on August 7, 2014, recorded a video of just over 30 minutes where he showed evidence that UFOs and aliens exist, in addition to claiming that he has even had conversations with them.
Definitive evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial beings on Earth
Boyd Bushman was born in Globe, Arizona, in 1936 and died on August 7, 2014 in Tucson, Arizona. Bushman was considered one of the great engineers of Lockheed Martin, a multinational company of the aerospace industry. I dedicate over forty years to aerospace research, awarded by paras paras, in addition to working for Hughes Aircraft, General Dynamics or Texas Instruments. According to his biography, Bushman was manager of several aerospace and scientific programs at Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company from 1986 to 2000, where he remained a consultant after retiring.
But it is not because of his impressive career as a scientist that he has made news again in the mainstream media around the world. Bushman died on August 7, but shortly before his death, he offered an incredible interview that was published on YouTube earlier this month and that already has more than a million and a half visits.
discovered in space, becoming the ultimate test that all life on Earth, including humans, is of extraterrestrial origin.
In the video, Bushman claims that one of his top-secret jobs was “reverse engineering , ” technology of extraterrestrial origin for the use of the United States military. But for those who think it is an impressive revelation, Bushman goes further with his statements. It also shows photographs of extraterrestrial beings, who in some cases have died inside the highly classified military base Area 51, also known as Dreamland, located in the Nevada desert some 85 kilometers north of Las Vegas.
“The only reason I believe in everything they told me is because my people got me pictures for thirty years,” Bushman explains in the video. “They are not just photographs, but I did them assignments being an important engineer and they got me really close photos. For example, a UFO ready to take off , taken up close. What they told me is that the UFO is made of three elements and none is metal. It turns out that these things get up and fly using anti-gravity systems. ”
According to the digital version of the Daily News, Bushman describes the aliens as between 1.20 and 1.50 meters tall and with elongated fingers , webbed feet and come from a planet known as “Quintumnia” , from which only take about 45 years in traveling to Earth. The engineer even gave them a mission: to photograph the planets that were on their way from their trip to Earth.
Alien scientist
Bushman also gives details of the extraterrestrial trips and his current mission in the land, which use UFOs of about 11 meters in diameter, while about 18 extraterrestrials continue to work in top secret facilities in the United States. He also said that 230-year-old aliens working in Area 51 can communicate with humans through telepathy , using our own voice.
“They are beings between 1.20 and 1.50 meters high. The American Army has one, or two, in Area 51 and they are close to 230 years of age, ” Bushman continues. “Their eyes are different from ours, the nose is different but they have five fingers in each hand, two eyes … What surprised me is that I asked how they communicated … and they told me: let’s say you have a question in your mind, then you go in a room with them and suddenly you find that the answer is given to you with your own voice. They are able to use your own voice with telepathy, to speak to you. ”
Apart from these revelations, Bushman also gives more specific details on how the extraterrestrial races that operate on Earth are organized, on the spiritual realm, extraterrestrial objects in Area 51, the demolition of UFO or dead extraterrestrial ships .
But shortly after the video of Bushman became a viral phenomenon, some people began to publish images of an extraterrestrial being very similar to the one shown by Bushman in the video, although it can be said that he is not the same. But the conspiracy theorists have reacted quickly, suggesting that the United States government put into circulation a doll very similar to the real extraterrestrial beings with the sole purpose of discrediting the statements of one of the most brilliant minds of aerospace engineering.
Is Bushman revealing the most important secret in the history of mankind? Is it a man who has lost his mental faculties? Or do they want to prepare us for the imminent extraterrestrial revelation?

ICY INTERIOR The solar system’s first interstellar visitor might be a comet rather than an asteroid. The object, seen in this artist's representation, may have an icy heart surrounded by an insulating crust, researchers suggest.
GEMINI OBSERVATORY/AURA/NSF IMAGE BY JOY POLLARD
An itinerant interstellar asteroid may actually be a comet in disguise.
In general, comets are icy and asteroids are rocky. Ice gives comets their characteristic tails: As a comet passes near the sun, the heat warms the ice, causing it to sublimate, releasing gas and dust. Because no tail appeared despite ‘Oumuamua’s passage by the sun, the mysterious visitor was dubbed an asteroid — a surprising conclusion since the vast majority of objects ejected from star systems are expected to be icy.
“Everybody's been assuming that this is just a lump of rock,” says astronomer Alan Fitzsimmons of Queen’s University Belfast in Northern Ireland. “This may not be the case.” So ‘Oumuamua might not be as odd as originally thought.
Fitzsimmons and colleagues used the Very Large Telescope in Chile and the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma, Spain to capture the object’s spectrum — its light sliced up according to wavelength. “It’s an impressive piece of work,” says astronomer Olivier Hainaut of the European Southern Observatory in Garching, Germany, who was not involved with the research. “It was a very faint object and to observe such a faint moving target is horribly difficult.”
The object’s spectrum revealed a reddish hue with no signs of ice. But ‘Oumuamua could have an exterior crust — about half a meter thick or thicker — which hid the ice and insulated it from the sun’s heat, the researchers calculated. “You could have a lot of ice in this thing and really not know it,” says astronomer Jessica Sunshine of the University of Maryland in College Park, who was not involved with the research. Such a crust could have formed as energetic particles known as cosmic rays bombarded the object over its lifetime, creating an ice-free surface rich in organic compounds. ‘Oumuamua’s spectrum is similar to those of other objects in the solar system suspected of concealing such icy interiors.
Studies of ‘Oumuamua continue — with some researchers looking for evidence of even more surprising hypotheses. Using the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia, scientists with the Breakthrough Listen project are searching for signatures of artificial origin — that is, aliens — on the off chance that the object might be an interstellar spacecraft. Sorry, X-Files fans: So far no such signals have been detected.
BABY FACE Saturn’s rings (shown in an image taken by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft on August 12, 2017) are relatively young, a few hundred million years old at most, astronomers say.
JPL-CALTECH/NASA, SPACE SCIENCE INSTITUTE
NEW ORLEANS — Saturn’s iconic rings are a recent addition. Final data from the Cassini spacecraft, which flew between the planet and the rings this year before plunging into the gas giant’s atmosphere, show the rings are around a few hundred million years old and less massive than previously thought.
Those findings suggest the rings are probably the remnants of at least one moon, rather than ancient remains of the stuff that formed the planet. The results were presented at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union on December 12 and 13.
For decades, scientists puzzled over the age and origins of Saturn’s rings (SN: 11/12/16, p. 10). If the rings had formed with Saturn some 4 billion years ago, a constant bombardment of debris from the more distant solar system should make the icy bands appear darker than they do. But scientists thought the rings were too heavy to have formed relatively recently, when there was less material available than in the solar system’s youth for Saturn to pull into the rings.
Cassini’s final orbits may have settled the issue. In the lead-up to the end of its mission in September, Cassini

An Irish astronomer believes efforts to make contact with aliens will prove successful within five years – and his team of scientists could make the breakthrough.
Eamonn Ansbro has been looking to communicate with extraterrestrial life from his research grade four telescope observatory for 17 years.
The married man works with five other full-time and part-time scientists attempting to solve the mysteries of the Universe.
His modern observatory, based in a traditional country cottage near Boyle, Co Roscommon, boasts the largest telescope in Ireland.
He said: “I’m convinced there’ll be communication [with another civilization] within our lifetime. I’d say within five years.
“We worked out the statistics on this based on the research we’ve been doing and based on many factors and we reckon we can do it within five years. We have all the gear, we have the right people and we’re operating 24/7.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if we get the first signal, we are optimistic.
“We wouldn’t have spent 12 years in developing all of this [otherwise]. It’s not a casual situation.
“I’ve spent 27 years at this, so I do know a little bit about it.”
Eamonn Ansbro at his observatory in Kingsland, Boyle
Asked about why he is confident a breakthrough is close, Eamonn replied: “First of all, the number of planets that have been discovered now and that’s been scaled up within the whole galaxy.
“Number two, we use technology with different radiation which takes in the whole galaxy, where with radio it doesn’t. Radio actually diminishes over distance.
“In our case it doesn’t diminish at all with longitudinal waves [faster than light communications]. So we can actually take in the whole galaxy.
“We’re confident there are civilizations out there that will pick up on even our signal. And that would be instantaneous.
“Now we obviously have to tune into the specific frequencies.”

Eamonn is by no means alone in searching for alien life and said his project has much in common with the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence Institute’s €85million project Breakthrough Listen.
It is looking at the million closest stars to Earth.
Eamonn said: “They are optimistic they’ll get a signal, but their’s would be in the radio area where ours would be in the longitudinal waves.
“I mean when you take it that out of the 520 billion planets in our own galaxy, nevermind the millions and millions of other galaxies and we’re the only ones?
“We’re way out on the edge of the galaxy and look how arrogant we are.
“There needs to be a big wake-up call. And I think the wake-up call will happen when the first signal comes through.”
And Eamonn dismissed fears an alien might not come in peace.
He added: “When you have Hollywood kicking in with spaceship stuff and Independence Day this is what you expect?
“I think if you look at a film like Arrival, which came out last year, that gives you a good example of what to expect.
“I’d expect a very passive type of civilization that has a completely different language to what we were expecting.”
Do You Want to Believe? Government UFO Search Never Stopped
By Mindy Weisberger, Live Science Senior Writer
Repeated reports of UFO sightings along Nevada's State Highway 375 — which is close to the top-secret Area 51 government base — led Nevada officials to dub the route "Extraterrestrial Highway" in 1996.

The U.S. government has been secretly investigating unidentified flying objects — UFOs — since 2007. And despite officials' claims that the classified UFO-hunting effort shuttered in 2012 after funding evaporated, the group is still active, The New York Times reported Saturday (Dec. 16).
Known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), the initiative was launched by the U.S. Department of Defense in 2007 and operated with an annual budget of $22 million from 2008 to 2011, the Times discovered during a recent investigation.
Pentagon officials revealed that the program existed, but added that it ceased to operate in 2012, the Times reported. However, the former leader of the program said that AATIP remained active in the years since; he continued to oversee the effort until he resigned in October — citing the department's "excessive secrecy and internal opposition" as the cause — and he was succeeded after his departure, according to the Times. [7 Things Most Often Mistaken for UFOs]
Under the program, aerospace experts investigated and described sightings and video recordings of mysterious objects that defied easy explanation; they also conducted tests on people who reported glimpsing UFOs, to see how they might have been affected by the experience, according to the Times.
One video example — the time and date of which was withheld by government officials — showed a fast-moving, spinning and glowing aircraft, recorded midair by Navy pilots in an F/A-18 Super Hornet, the Times reported.
The nascent program was ushered into existence by Nevada Democratic Sen. Harry Reid, then the Senate majority leader. His interest in UFOs was piqued by conversations with billionaire entrepreneur Robert Bigelow, whose aerospace company was tapped to conduct much of the research for AATIP's UFO sightings, Reid told the Times.
Reid further explained that he had also spoken about UFOs years earlier with astronaut John Glenn, the Times reported. Glenn suggested to Reid that the government should take a closer look at reports of UFO sightings by members of the military service; these reports were often not widely shared, because people who saw UFOs thought that no one would believe them.

Reid referred to the proposed budget for AATIP as "black money," a special type of budget maintained by the Pentagon for classified programs, and one that was not debated publicly by Senate members, according to the Times.
UFO sightings have been investigated by government agencies since the 1940s, and in January 2016, the CIA released a number of previously classified documents describing some of the most unusual UFO encounters on record, most of which took place in the 1950s.
But belief in UFOs is still widespread; according to a survey conducted in 2012, an estimated 80 million people in the U.S. think that UFOs are real, and 1 in 10 responders claimed to have personally witnessed what they describe as an extraterrestrial spacecraft.
In an interview, the now-retired Reid said that he was "not embarrassed or ashamed or sorry" to have pushed for the investigation of potential threats posed by UFOs, according to the Times.
"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," Reid said.
"What people sometimes don't get about science is that we often have phenomena that remain unexplained," said an astrophysicist at MIT http://nyti.ms/2oDSel5
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.
The U.S. Department of Defense had a secret program to investigate reports of unidentified flying objects, and former Navy pilots in the program say they had a stunning encounter with a UFO in 2004.
The New York Timestells of the mission of Cmdr. David Fravor and Lt. Cmdr. Jim Slaight, who were in training over the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego at the time. They got a strange call from a radio operator. The military had been tracking strange aircraft in the region for about two weeks, the operator said. Sometimes, these flying objects made sudden maneuvers, dove tens of thousands of feet or even hovered, according to the reports.
Asked to investigate, Fravor and Slaight eventually spotted one. About 40 feet (12 meters) long, it was hovering 50 feet (15 m) above the ocean, the Times report says. (Fraser added that the object appeared to be causing a sort of boiling or bubbles in the ocean, as the rest of the water looked calm.) [10 Alien Encounters Debunked]
Fraser descended, the object ascended to meet him and then it veered suddenly. "It accelerated like nothing I've ever seen, he said an interview with the Times, adding that he was "pretty weirded out." A few minutes later, the object disappeared, he said.
Fravor returned to his carrier ship, where people mocked him for what he saw, he told the Times. His superiors didn't look into the matter, and Fravor moved on to other things in his career, such as serving in the Persian Gulf as air support during the Iraq war.
Fravor's account includes a video — one of several recorded as a part of the program. The video shows a small object skirting from side to side and circling in view of the camera. The Times added that observers also underwent tests after their "encounters," to see how the experience had affected them.
"I can tell you, I think it was not from this world," Fravor added in a separate interview with ABC News. "I'm not crazy, haven't been drinking. It was — after 18 years of flying, I've seen pretty much about everything that I can see in that realm, and this was nothing close."
The program was called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program and had an annual budget of $22 million between 2008 and 2011. (By contrast, the budget of NASA as a whole was roughly $18.4 billion in fiscal year 2011.)
This isn't the first time that the government has looked into accounts of mysterious objects. In 2016, the Central Intelligence Agency released many previously classified documents that talked about unusual incidents, most of which occurred in the 1950s.
While the scientific evidence for UFOs is inconclusive, many people still want to believe. A 2012 survey said an estimated 80 million people in the U.S. believe in UFOs. Further, 1 in 10 respondents said they had seen UFOs for themselves.
In the Times interview, Fravor added that shortly after his encounter, he spoke with another pilot about what he saw. He told the pilot he had no idea what it was. "It had no plumes, wings or rotors and outran our F-18s," he told the Times, adding, "I want to fly one."
What We've Learned From 60 Years of U.S.-Funded UFO Probes
What We've Learned From 60 Years of U.S.-Funded UFO Probes
The newly revealed Pentagon program is certainly not the first federally funded project to hunt for signs of advanced intelligence in the galaxy.

A recently revealed, formerly secret U.S. government program that studied unexplained aerial phenomena—more colloquially referred to as UFOs—came as a surprise to many when stories describing it appeared almost simultaneously in the New York Times and Politico.
The Pentagon’s project, called the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, was reportedly established in 2007 to investigate unexplained aerial phenomena that appeared to be using novel propulsive, hovering, or otherwise advanced technologies. A 490-page report detailing the program’s findings supposedly exists, though it has not yet been released.
Some may think that the very existence of this project supports the idea that aliens are visiting us, but that’s not a logical conclusion. The undeniable truth is that observations of a puzzling nature certainly merit investigation, as long as it’s done scientifically. And this project is not even close to the first U.S. government-funded search for evidence of advanced intelligence—so far, to little effect.
Projects that began more than five decades ago and still continue to this day include efforts to evaluate bizarre sightings and exotic objects, scan the skies for signs of intelligent transmissions, and develop instruments capable of sniffing out signs of life on faraway worlds.
The fact that the government chose to spend some cash on a supposedly scientific look at UFOs—particularly as they could be crucially related to national security threats—really should be no surprise, says Seth Shostak, one of the SETI Institute’s senior alien hunters.
THE SCIENCE OF ALIEN SIGHTINGS
Neil deGrasse Tyson and SETI astronomer Seth Shotsak talk about alien sightings and how aliens are portrayed in the media.
“The feds have long had an interest in UFOs, going back to the celebrity cases of the late 1940s—Roswell, anyone?” says Shostak. “Much of the motivation for this interest was the worry that the strange things being reported in the sky might be novel Soviet—or today, Russian or Chinese—aircraft.
“But even if you think that the interest had greater scope, that the government really wanted to know if our little planet was being visited by other beings, there’s little surprise in the fact that they’ve spent a modest amount of money investigating that possibility.” Indeed, roughly a third of the U.S. population believes that some of these bizarre phenomena are attributable to extraterrestrial visitors, he says.
The bigger problem, according to Shostak, is that the money shunted into the Pentagon program went primarily to a company founded by Robert Bigelow, a billionaire aerospace mogul whose company builds inflatable space modules and who has long believed in alien visitation. Initiated after conversations between Bigelow and then-Nevada senator Harry Reid, the program garnered at least $22 million in funding over five years (it’s not yet clear whether it survives under a different guise after its supposed termination in 2012).
Within the new stories are nuggets of curious information, including the supposed keeping of unearthly alloys at Bigelow’s facilities, and a video that reportedly shows an object spotted by two U.S. Navy pilots.
But the most that’s publicly known about the program’s findings is second-hand at best, coming from insiders relaying their impressions to reporters. Some, like Reid, claim there is compelling evidence that merits further investigation—but the details remain as elusive as the aliens.
“Objective description of any phenomena should be backed up by compelling evidence, and despite many decades of reports of various UFO and abduction phenomena, we don’t have such evidence,” says Andrew Siemion, director of the Berkeley SETI research center. “Moreover, astronomers spend their lives looking at the sky with a wide variety of telescopes and techniques, and we have never snapped a picture of [an unexplained] spaceship.”
Here are some of our previous and ongoing attempts to find out if, in fact, aliens are out there and whether we have been visited, starting with the heyday of such activities around the middle of the last century.
1947: Roswell (Project Mogul)
Easily the granddaddy of all UFO conspiracies, the Roswell incident is described by many as the catastrophic crash of an alien spaceship in the New Mexico desert, after which the U.S. government supposedly retrieved the spacecraft (and several aliens). In 1994, the Air Force released a report identifying the debris as belonging to “a once top-secret balloon operation, Project MOGUL, designed to monitor the atmosphere for evidence of Soviet nuclear tests.”
1948-1952:Projects Sign and Grudge
First Sign and then Grudge, these Air Force-funded projects were examinations of flying saucers and other reported unexplained phenomena, inspired both by the Cold War and a 1947 observation of nine “disk-shaped objects” over Washington state. According to the CIA, “GRUDGE officials found no evidence in UFO sightings of advanced foreign weapons design or development, and they concluded that UFOs did not threaten U.S. security. They recommended that the project be reduced in scope because the very existence of Air Force official interest encouraged people to believe in UFOs and contributed to a ’war hysteria’ atmosphere.”
1952-1969:Project Blue Book
A continuation of the previous two projects, Blue Book was the longest and most extensive known investigation of unexplained aerial happenings. Of the 12,618 reported sightings it investigated, most were ruled to be misidentified natural phenomena or aircraft (including early U-2 spy planes on test flights); 701 and remained unidentified. The report concluded that “No UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security; there has been no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as ’unidentified’ represent technological developments or principles beyond the range of present-day scientific knowledge; there has been no evidence indicating the sightings categorized as ’unidentified’ are extraterrestrial vehicles.”
1960: Project Ozma
Funded by the National Science Foundation, a federal agency created in 1950, this $2,000 project was the first scientific search for signs of intelligent radio transmissions from other worlds. Using a telescope at the Green Bank Observatory, astronomer Frank Drake (yes, the reporter’s father) listened for radio transmissions coming from planets that could be orbiting the stars Tau Ceti and Epsilon Eridani, but the scans came up empty.

1966-1968: University of Colorado UFO Project/Condon Committee
Funded by the Air Force, this project produced 1968’s Condon Report, which concluded that there was no compelling evidence for extraterrestrial involvement in UFOs, and which recommended discontinuing Project Blue Book and any further investigations of UFOs. The report inspired the American Association of the Advancement for Science to convene a meeting on the topic, which Carl Sagan and Thornton Page then turned into a book called UFOs: A Scientific Debate.
1970s and ‘80s: CIA Investigations of Paranormal and Psychic Phenomena
The 1970s and 1980s saw the CIA investigating a bunch of phenomena associated with UFO sightings, such as parapsychology and psychic happenings. According to CIA report “Role in the Study of UFOs, 1947-90 (A Die-Hard Issue)”, “CIA officials also looked at the UFO problem to determine what UFO sightings might tell them about Soviet progress in rockets and missiles and reviewed its counterintelligence aspects.”
1976-1993:SETI/HRMS
The only time the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, or SETI, has been written into a NASA budget line, this decade provided as much as $12 million a year for searches using the Arecibo and Goldstone antennas. Around 1990, the government’s SETI program—headquartered at NASA’s Ames Research Center—was renamed the High Resolution Microwave Survey in an attempt to avoid cancellation. Nevada senator Richard Bryan ended up cancelling the program anyway in 1993, right after actual observations had started.
1990s to now: NASA’s Astrobiology Institute
Founded in 1998, the NASA Astrobiology Institute is one of many projects within the space agency aimed at investigating the possibility that life exists elsewhere in the cosmos. Scientists under its umbrella are currently thinking about whether life once existed on Mars, if there might be organisms tucked beneath the icy shells of the moons Europa and Enceladus, and how we would even recognize what life beyond Earth looks like if and when we see it.
Now, and beyond
Other ongoing work that continues to rely on federal funds includes developing instruments capable of detecting not only exoplanets but also alien biospheres, as well as work using organisms and environments on Earth as extraterrestrial analogs.

Amerikaanse overheid haalde onbekende materialen uit UFO. Wetenschappers staan voor raadsel
Amerikaanse overheid haalde onbekende materialen uit UFO. Wetenschappers staan voor raadsel
Het Pentagon heeft metaallegeringen uit ongeïdentificeerde vliegende objecten gehaald die wetenschappers ‘niet kenden’ en voor een raadsel stelden.
De materialen, die ‘verbluffende eigenschappen’ zouden hebben, worden opgeslagen in aangepaste gebouwen in Las Vegas, schrijft The Independent.
“Ze hebben materiaal van deze objecten verzameld, zodat wetenschappers kunnen achterhalen waarom ze zulke verbluffende eigenschappen hebben,” vertelde Ralf Blumenthal van de New York Times aan MSNBC.
Geen idee
Blumenthal zei verder dat het Amerikaanse ministerie van Defensie ‘geen idee heeft’ waar het materiaal uit bestaat.
“Het is een soort verbinding die ze niet kennen,” voegde hij toe.
Wetenschappers deden ook onderzoek naar mensen die claimden dat onbekende vliegende objecten een fysieke impact hadden op hun lichaam.
Niemand
In een eerder vrijgegeven video van het Pentagon is te zien hoe piloten van de marine een mysterieuze UFO ter grootte van een passagiersvliegtuig volgen.
“Tot op de dag van vandaag weet niemand wat het zijn,” zei Blumenthal. “Onderzoekers probeerden te achterhalen op welke vreemde manier ze worden aangedreven, maar ze kwamen er niet uit.”
Overtuigend bewijs
De man die het UFO-onderzoeksprogramma van het Pentagon jarenlang leidde, Luis Elizondo, zei op CNNdat er heel overtuigend bewijs is dat we niet alleen zijn in het universum.
Het Pentagon zei dat het Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program vijf jaar geleden is beëindigd, maar volgens mensen die eraan werken bestaat het nog steeds.
In one of the most extraordinary alien conspiracy theories to date, many so-called “truth seekers” believe there is a seven-storey underground complex beneath Mount Archuleta on the Colorado-New Mexico border near the town of Dulce.
Dulce, New Mexico, is a small town with a population of just under 3,000, and is the tribal headquarters of the Jicarilla Apache Reservation.
The remarkable myth centres around claims that US military personnel and aliens cooperate together in the nearby base, with the government given alien technology in return for allowing extraterrestrial races to abduct and experiment on limited numbers of humans.
And it claims men hired to complete the base by drilling huge tunnels ended up in a violent stand off with “grey aliens” and 57 out of the 60 humans were slaughtered, in 1979.
YouTube
ALIEN BASE? Claims have been made aliens are hidden below this mountain but images (right) are hoax.
The theory began in the mid to late 1970s when Gabe Valdez, a former New Mexico State Police trooper, claimed to find strange activity around mutilated cattle, including discarded gas masks and glow sticks.
He even claimed to find an foetus inside a dead cow, which was like a “cross between a human, a monkey and a frog" and speculated on radio the cows were being used as incubators for alien babies.
The late Paul Bennewitz, who had a PhD in physics, was researching classified government programs at Kirtland Air Force base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, during the seventies.
He picked up electronic signals near Dulce, and theorised they were coming from an underground base, before he suggested the Dulce theory in 1982.
The late Philip Schneider was next to ramp up the myth.
YouTube
DEAD END: Several images online purporting to be inside the Dulce base were taken elsewhere.
I can’t conclusively prove Dulce Base doesn’t exist. But nobody can conclusively prove it does. Until that proof emerges from the ground, Dulce will remain a strange story created by troubled dreamers, not a house of alien horrors.
Mike Rothschild
He went whistleblower to claim he survived an extraordinary battle at Dulce in 1979 and said he was an explosives engineer who worked for the US Government under high-level security clearance, to finish building the base using monster drills.
Schneider claimed that during drilling he came face-to-face with a seven-feet tall “grey alien.”
In a tale from an alien horror flick, he said he shot and killed two aliens, but was blasted with a plasma ball that blew off some fingers.
He was saved by a US Green Beret, and in a battle that followed 57 people perished and three survived, including Mr Schneider, he claimed.
Many people have sought to debunk Mr Schneider’s claims, saying he claimed to work for the government for 17 years, but retired at 34, so would have started work at 17.
A former roommate also came forward to say Mr Schneider previously told them he lost his fingers working in eastern Oregon as a lineman.
YouTube
HOAXED: These alleged pictures from inside the Dulce base were proved to be hoaxes.
The only other alleged “witness” to emerge was supposedly called Thomas Castello, an alleged security guard at the base.
He said he had seen people reported as missing locally taken to be experimented on, in the run up to the battle.
And his account was linked to purportedly leaked images of people held inside strange water-filled bags, and other so-called Dulce Base pictures which appeared online.
The images were later proved as hoaxes, taken from the Arnold Schwarzenegger film The 6th Day, released in 2000.
An article on Theblackvault.com, which exposed the images as hoaxed, said: ”Multiple online sources and viral posts, have circulated this photograph as having been leaked by Costello, then shortly after it was leaking, he and his family went missing.
“There is no evidence that I have found, that shows that Thomas Costello even exists.”
From 1988 to 1990 US Ufologist John Lear claimed to received “independent confirmation” that the Dulce base existed.
Writer Mike Rothschild investigated the myth for sceptical website skeptoid.com.
He said: “There are no real pictures of it. There is no physical evidence of roads or vents or doors or anything of the sort. Even though tens of thousands of people must have been involved in building, staffing and guarding the base, nobody has ever claimed with any credibility to have worked there or that their family member or friend was killed in a shootout or experimented upon.
“I can’t conclusively prove Dulce Base doesn’t exist.
“But nobody can conclusively prove it does. Until that proof emerges from the ground, Dulce will remain a strange story created by troubled dreamers, not a house of alien horrors.”
Political scientist Michael Barkun said Cold War underground missile installations dug out in the area gave “superficial plausibility” to the Dulce base myth.
He said claims about experiments on abductees and the battle put the Dulce legend "well outside even the most far-fetched reports of secret underground bases."
Despite this, the area remains a hot bed of UFO activity, according to locals, which may well keep the myth alive.

Ligt hier diep onder de grond een militaire basis verscholen waar buitenaardse wezens zijn te vinden?
Ligt hier diep onder de grond een militaire basis verscholen waar buitenaardse wezens zijn te vinden?
Onder Archuleta Mesa op de grens tussen Colorado en New Mexico ligt volgens veel waarheidszoekers een ondergrondse basis verscholen waar buitenaardse wezens zijn te vinden.
Volgens verschillende theorieën werken het Amerikaanse leger en de aliens er samen. In ruil voor buitenaardse technologie zouden de aliens een beperkt aantal mensen mogen ontvoeren.
In 1979 zouden bouwlieden tijdens werkzaamheden op zogeheten Greys zijn gestuit, waarna het tot een bloedige confrontatie kwam.
Signalen
Het begon allemaal toen politieagent Gabe Valdez in de jaren zeventig melding maakte van gevallen van veeverminking.
Hij claimde zelfs een foetus te hebben gevonden in een dode koe en speculeerde dat koeien werden gebruikt om aliens ter wereld te brengen.
Paul Bennewitz deed in de jaren zeventig onderzoek naar geheime overheidsprojecten rond Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico.
Hij pikte nabij de basis signalen op en theoretiseerde dat ze afkomstig waren van een geheime ondergrondse basis.
Experimenten
Daarna meldde Philip Schneider zich. Hij claimde het bloedbad in 1979 te hebben overleefd en zei dat hij één van de bouwlieden was die aan de basis, Dulce geheten, hadden gewerkt.
Schneider beweerde dat hij tijdens het boren van de tunnels oog in oog kwam te staan met een twee meter lange Grey en ternauwernood wist te ontsnappen.
Nog een andere getuige, ene Thomas Castello, zei als beveiliger op de basis te hebben gewerkt. Hij zei dat mensen die in de buurt vermist waren geraakt, op de basis werden onderworpen aan experimenten.
Informatie
Eind jaren tachtig claimde de Amerikaanse ufoloog John Lear informatie te hebben gekregen waaruit volgens hem bleek dat de basis bestaat.
De CIA heeft het bestaan van Area 51 inmiddels erkend. Daarnaast is gebleken dat de Amerikaanse overheid in het geheim onderzoek doet naar UFO’s. Zal binnenkort ook worden onthuld dat Dulce echt bestaat?
Campagnechef Clinton wil dat sluier over UFO’s wordt opgelicht. Roep om disclosure klinkt steeds luider
Campagnechef Clinton wil dat sluier over UFO’s wordt opgelicht. Roep om disclosure klinkt steeds luider
De voormalige campagnemanager van presidentskandidaat Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, heeft na het nieuws over het geheime UFO-programma van het Pentagon gezegd dat ‘de sluier over UFO’s moet worden opgelicht’.
Podesta, die stafchef onder president Bill Clinton en adviseur van president Obama was, riep op Twitter op tot openheid over aliens en UFO’s.
De New York Times onthulde dat de Amerikaanse overheid tussen 2007 en 2012 jaarlijks vele miljoenen in een geheim onderzoek naar onbekende vliegende objecten stak.
Licht de sluier op
Het programma werd geleid door inlichtingenfunctionaris Luis Elizondo, die nu samen met voormalig zanger van de band Blink-192 Tom DeLonge probeert zoveel mogelijk informatie naar buiten te brengen.
Podesta linkte naar het bewuste nieuwsartikel en schreef erbij: “Licht de sluier op. Bedankt.”
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.
Hij voegde net als de Amerikaanse senator Harry Reid toe: “The truth is out there.”
Druk
Reid, een Democraat uit Nevada, regelde de financiering van het UFO-programma. Ook hij voerde op social media de druk op.
DeLonge stuurde Podesta e-mails over het project, zo bleek uit onthullingen van WikiLeaks. Clinton zei tijdens haar campagne dat ze van plan was de waarheid over aliens en Area 51 boven water te krijgen als ze president zou worden.
Niet gelukt
Onder beide presidenten deed Podesta volop pogingen om te achterhalen wat de VS weet over UFO’s. Die liepen op niets uit.
“Mijn grootste mislukking van 2014. Wederom niet gelukt om de UFO-onderzoeken te openbaren,” tweette hij op zijn laatste werkdag als adviseur van Obama.
It’s been one of humanity’s burning questions throughout history: where did life come from? Given what we now know of the origin of the universe and the history of our planet, and it’s easy to see how life might have originated not from our own planet but from elsewhere the universe where it then came to Earth somehow. There are many competing theories about how this could have happened: impacts of asteroids carrying organic molecules, tiny microbes propelled by radiation, or even that garbage dumped by aliens could have accidentally led to life on our planet. Of course, there’s also the theory of “directed” panspermia which argues life could have been sent here purposefully by an incredibly advanced civilization as a means of spreading the seed of life throughout the universe. As outlandish as that sounds, Breakthrough Initiatives scientists have already proposed such an idea using tiny probes carrying modified bacteria which carry human DNA, and we’re still basically just cavemen who learned how to make stuff.
What could go wrong?
Whether or not any of the panspermia theories is actually true or not is one thing, but scientists in Canada have now found that life could indeed originate from space. Their research discovered that organic molecules can form in space out of regular ol’ space dirt, thanks to the ever-present power of cosmic radiation. The researchers placed small films of methane and oxygen ice – the same ices found on comets, asteroids, and cosmic dust – into a cold vacuum to simulate space, then bombarded the ice with the same low-energy electrons found in ultraviolet light, cosmic rays, and other forms of radiation common to space. The electrons ionized the matter in the ices, forcing reactions to occur which led to the creation of several organic molecules thought to be potential “building blocks” of life including acetic acid, formaldehyde, and methanol.
But didn’t an asteroid also likely kill the dinosaurs? The cosmos giveth, and the cosmos taketh away.
In their published study, the researchers claim this specific effect of cosmic radiation could be the ‘spark’ which led to the first life in our solar system and perhaps beyond:
This radiation-driven molecular synthesis may indeed represent a driving force in the original biogenesis of the molecular building blocks of life in our own solar system and, due to the ubiquitous nature of matter and radiation, may represent a key element in molecular biogenesis throughout the universe.
While far from being proof once and for all that we are actually just the reeking byproducts of alien garbage, this research at least confirms that life could have originated from space, even on small icy hunks of rock or cosmic dust particles hurtling free through the cosmos. But, while I don’t mean to disparage the significance of this discovery, I have to wonder: didn’t literally everything technically come from space too after the Big Bang? Even if life originated on Earth, isn’t the matter which composes our planet technically “from space”? Aren’t we in space right now? Sure, we might be tethered to the surface of this planet, but we’re still riding on it as it hurtles through space at 19 milesper second in giant ellipses around the Sun, oblivious to the movement and destination of our vessel like ants circling the drain atop an old waffle some alien flushed down his weird alien toilet.
Besides, one solar system’s trash is another solar system’s treasure.
So don’t go joining that crazy UFO cult just yet. They might say the mothership is coming back, but they also all wear Keds. Never trust the cults with Keds.
Pentagon's UFO Research Program Revelation Puts Spotlight On The UFO Phenomenon
Pentagon's UFO Research Program Revelation Puts Spotlight On The UFO Phenomenon
This past weekend’s bombshell revelations regarding the Pentagon’s secret UFO research program has sparked a media frenzy surrounding the phenomenon which has produced some additional insights into the story.
Unlike many stories generated by the phenomenon, this particular tale seems to have taken hold in the zeitgeist thanks to the seriousness with which the US government has been revealed to take UFOs.
To that end, the response to the Pentagon’s confirmation has been largely curious rather than dismissive, although it has also spawned some thought pieces on the propriety of spending tax payer money on UFO research.
Amid the tidal wave of stories detailing Saturday’s Times piece, some intriguing new details about the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program have come to light.
Perhaps most tantalizing is that the group produced a 490-page report on their research that was ostensibly issued to the Department of Defense.
It is unknown what insights were contained within the report as well as whether or not it will be made available to the public.
Equally remarkable were some new insights into the “metal alloys and other materials” that were purportedly recovered and studied by the AATIP.
One of the Times’ reporters who penned the story elaborated on that aspect of the research in an interview with MSNBC.
Ralph Blumenthal explained that this “material from these objects that is being studied so that scientists can try and figure out what accounts for their amazing properties.”
Asked what type of material it is, he replied, “they don’t know. They’re studying it, but it’s some kind of compound that they don’t recognize.”
How the story unfolds from here remains to be seen, but there is hope in the UFO disclosure community that the tremendous public interest in the Pentagon’s admission can create momentum towards more revelations from the government.
More cynical observers and seasoned UFO researchers are taking something of a ‘wait and see’ approach as the constantly-churning news cycle may push the phenomenon back into the periphery before any progress towards answers can be achieved as has happened many times in the past.
And some concerned conspiracy theorists are already crying foul and warning people that the ‘threat’ aspect of the AATIP’s mission may be used to fabricate a ‘hostile ET’ narrative should this truly be the start of some kind of UFO disclosure.
While that may turn out to be the case, the attitude of many who have longed for UFO answers seems to be that they’ll cross that proverbial bridge when they come to it so long as they receive confirmation about ETs.
Ultimately it may take some time before we know if the Pentagon’s admission was a watershed moment in the march towards UFO disclosure or simply another maddening misstep leading us even further into the dark. By contributor Jeffery Pritchett host of the Church of Mabus radio show.

Dit is ’m dan: de nieuwe raket van Elon Musk (die zijn rode Tesla de ruimte instuurt) - HLN.be
Dit is ’m dan: de nieuwe raket van Elon Musk (die zijn rode Tesla de ruimte instuurt) - HLN.be
SpaceX
WETENSCHAP & PLANEETDit is ’m dan: de nieuwe, krachtige raket van SpaceX, het ruimtevaartbedrijf van Elon Musk. De Falcon Heavy wil de komende twee jaar ruimtetoeristen in een baan om de Aarde laten vliegen. Bij de eerste lancering binnen enkele weken in Cape Canaveral (Florida) stuurt Musk zelfs zijn eigen rode Tesla Roadster mee.
SpaceX en Elon Musk zitten al jaren op hete kolen, maar in januari is het - eindelijk - zover: de eerste lancering van de Falcon Heavy. Het ruimtetuig had eigenlijk al zijn eerste testvluchten in 2013 en 2014 moeten doen, maar die werden altijd uitgesteld. Ook in november van dit jaar, de nieuwe lanceerdatum, bleef het krachtige broertje van de Falcon 9 aan de grond. Vertraagd dus, omdat SpaceX zich een beetje verslikt had in de ontwikkeling van de nieuwste raket. Dat zei Musk tijdens een persconferentie van het ISS in juli.
“De lancering van dergelijk groot en krachtig ruimtetuig is veel, veel, veel moeilijker dan we hadden verwacht. Liefst 27 motoren moeten tegelijkertijd worden afgevuurd. En daar kan dus veel misgaan.” In één adem temperde Musk de eerdere euforische berichten die hij de wereld had ingestuurd: “Er bestaat een grote kans dat de raket niet in een baan om de Aarde terechtkomt. Ik hoop gewoon dat ze ver genoeg verwijderd is van het lanceerplatform. Zodat er, wanneer er iets foutloopt, zeker geen schade is aan de romp. Dat zou ik al als een overwinning beschouwen.”
SpaceX
De Falcon Heavy is, zoals gezegd, een grotere variant van de Falcon 9. En de naam maakt het al duidelijk: de nieuwste uitvinding kan meer gewicht de ruimte insturen omdat het twee extra stuwmotoren heeft. Volgens SpaceX kan de raket 63.800 kilo in een baan rond de Aarde tillen. Op een reis naar Mars zou dat 16.800 kilo zijn. Daarmee is het de krachtigste raket sinds de maanraket Saturn V, die sinds 1973 niet meer heeft gevlogen. En heeft hij meer dan tweemaal de vrachtcapaciteit van de krachtigste raket op de huidige markt (voor de specialisten: de Delta IV Heavy, goed voor 28,8 ton).
Om de lancering extra feestelijk te maken liet Musk op 2 december via Twitter nog weten zijn eigen rode Tesla Roadster uit 2009 mee te sturen. Eitje eigenlijk, want de raket zou er goed veertig kunnen dragen. Musks uiteindelijke doel is om de auto in een baan rond Mars te schieten, waar de Roadster dan “zeker een miljard jaar” zal kunnen rondzweven. Ondertussen moet ‘Space Oddity’ van David Bowie uit de speakers klinken. Of het een loutere grap betreft, is niet zeker. Want betrouwbare bronnen hebben aan verschillende techsites het nieuws bevestigd.
Het is overigens niet de eerste keer SpaceX een vreemd voorwerp de ruimte instuurt. Bij de eerste onbemande vlucht van vrachtcapsule Dragon ging... een Franse kaas mee.
This is why we can’t have nice things … or at least nice conferences about creating robot-human hybrid babies. The Third International Congress in Love and Sex with Robots , featuring a lecture by a scientist who believes we’re just decades away from robot-human hybrids was shut down at Goldsmith University in London and moved to a secret location after reports that Muslim terrorists were planning to attack it because:
“Robot sex is against the Muslim religion, it’s equated to homosexuality.”
Well, it’s probably against a few other religions but that’s what Adrian David Cheok, co-founder of the conference and computer scientist, told the Daily Star Online. Malaysian police warned him they had picked up signs the event was in danger. The conference was held at Goldsmith without incident last year when a woman named Lilly (no last name given) announced she was a “proud robo-sexual” in love with a robot she made herself, using a 3D printer, that she planned to marry.
That didn’t seem to bother the terrorists as much as this year’s lecture by Dr, David Levy, the author of Love and Sex with Robots, who states that he believes “it is possible” for humans and robots to have babies given “recent progress in stem cell research and artificial chromosomes” and that possibility will become reality in less than a century.
According the Levy, the key is a process, known as tissue nano transfection (TNT) that allows the genetic code of a robot to be merged with human genetic code and downloaded into a nanotechnology-based chip that will inject the combined genetic codes into skin cells. It sounds like a great movie plot but the film will have to be a documentary because Levy says researchers at Ohio State University have already developed the chip. (Is this why the OSU football team’s linemen seem to execute their plays robotically?)
So the actual creation of robot-human hybrid babies doesn’t involve sex with robots – just the technology to implant robot genetic code into an embryo carried by a surrogate mother. That’s not a reason for terrorist attacks, is it?
“Police in Malaysia got in touch with us ahead of the conference. We have a very good relationship with them after out conference got banned from the country in 2015.”
Cheok hints that the threat may be related to the 2015 conference, which was scheduled to be held in Malaysia, where Islam is the majority religion, but was cancelled when the Chief of Police in Kuala Lumpur decided that the Love and Sex with Robots idea was immoral and announced that he would throw the organizers in jail if it was held. Cheok thinks “students” in the UK were responsible for the threats and that puzzled him.
“London is totally for free speech so it’s surprising. I think the way to combat those attitudes is being more open.”
“Good luck with that,” said everyone in the U.S.
Conference or not, the sex robot business is booming (or maybe boom-booming), robot chromosomes have been created and a chip to implant them in humans has been developed. Sorry, terrorists, this human-robotic hybrid cat is out of the bag.

‘Oumuamua, the intriguing elongated asteroid, and the first visitor detected to have come from outside the Solar System, has a crust rich in organic matter that has prevented the vaporization of its interior ice.
The enigmatic object was recently scanned by astronomers from the Breakthrough Listen Project in hopes of finding potential signals of alien technology.
The asteroid, first classified a comet when discovered, is currently traveling at nearly 200,000 miles per hour.
Since the object was discovered in October, Alan Fitzsimmons and Michele Bannister, from the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Queen’s University in Belfast, have led an international team of astronomers to create a profile of this strange visitor.
The team measured the way ‘Oumuamua reflects sunlight and found it similar to frozen objects covered with a dry crust. This is because ‘Oumuamua has been exposed to cosmic rays for millions, or even billions of years, creating an insulating layer rich in organic matter on its surface.
The research, detailed in the journal Nature Astronomy, suggests that the dry bark of Oumuamua could have protected its icy interior from being vaporized, even though the object was 23 million miles from the sun in September when slingshot around our star.
“We have discovered that the surface of ‘Oumuamua is similar to the small bodies of the solar system that are covered with carbon-rich ice, whose structure is modified by exposure to cosmic rays,” says Professor Alan Fitzsimmons.
“We have also found that a half-meter thick coating of organic-rich material could have protected a water-ice-rich comet-like interior from vaporizing when the object was heated by the sun, even though it was heated to over 300 degrees centigrade.”
Dr. Michele Bannister and her team observed ‘Oumuamua while still within range of the world’s largest telescopes.
Astronomers found that the object was the same color as some of the smaller frozen planets that they had been studying outside of our solar system, which implies that different planetary systems in our galaxy contain smaller planets like ours.
Working together, scientists have been able to discover some very important facts about Oumuamua.
“We have discovered that it is a planetesimal with a well-formed crust that looks a lot like the smaller worlds in the outer regions of our solar system, it has a greyish/red surface and it is very elongated, probably the size and shape of the Gherkin skyscraper in London », explains Bannister.

“It’s fascinating that the first interstellar object discovered looks so much like a tiny world from our own home system. This suggests that the way our planets and asteroids formed has a lot of kinship to the systems around other stars.”
“We are continuing our research into ‘Oumuamua and are hopeful that we will make more discoveries in the near future. Discoveries like this really help to give a little more insight into what’s out there and encourages people to look up and wonder,” concluded Dr. Bannister.
Durant 5 ans le Pentagone a financé un programme secret de recherche sur les ovnis
Durant 5 ans le Pentagone a financé un programme secret de recherche sur les ovnis
Si les ovnis n’existent pas alors pourquoi le département américain de la Défense aurait-il consacré 22 millions de dollars par an durant 5 ans à un programme secret destiné à enquêter à leur sujet ?
C’est bien la question que l’on est en droit de se poser au regard du récent aveu du Pentagone qui a concédé avoir créé un programme d'identification des menaces aérospatiales avancées (AATIP), entre 2007 et 2012 après les révélations du New York Times et de Politico à ce sujet le samedi 16 décembre 2017.
C’est donc une réalité, l’armée américaine a fait des recherches au sujet des objets volants non identifiés.
En quoi consistait ce programme ?
Ces millions de dollars étaient surtout destinés à financer Bigelow Aerospace, la société du milliardaire Robert Bigelow qui était chargée d'évaluer la menace posée par ces ovnis.
Dans ce cadre l'argent a permis à cette entreprise d'agrandir ses bâtiments à Las Vegas (Nevada) pour stocker les métaux et autres matériaux récupérés et attribués à des phénomènes non identifiés (tient donc ...)
Parallèlement, les chercheurs de Bigelow ont également interrogé des personnes affirmant avoir ressenti des modifications physiologiques après des rencontres avec des ovnis qu’il s’agisse de militaires ou de simples citoyens.
La preuve est donnée de l’existence des ovnis et de leur origine extraterrestre
Ce qui était considéré hier comme de la science-fiction est maintenant une réalité incontestable.
Au terme des travaux de ce programme il apparait que de nombreux phénomènes aériens non identifiés semblent provenir d'une technologie bien plus avancée que celle des humains.
Il a ainsi été attesté que certains des engins observés manœuvraient de manière si extraordinaire et si rapide qu'ils semblaient défier les lois de la physique.
Conjointement, Selon Luis Elizondo, qui était à la tête du programme, "les phénomènes étudiés ne semblaient pas provenir d'un quelconque pays" donc ils étaient extraterrestres ...
Des ovnis qui s’intéressent au nucléaire.
Les observations les plus étranges se situaient souvent à proximité d'installations nucléaires, qu'il s'agisse de navires en mer ou de centrales.
Cette technologie est-elle si dangereuse qu’elle intrigue à ce point nos voisins de l’espace ?
Ce programme d’étude est-il toujours d’actualité ?
Officiellement il a pris fin en 2012, les financements officiels ont donc été coupés, mais le programme ne s'est pas forcément arrêté pour autant.
Luis Elizondo affirme avoir continué à travailler avec la marine américaine et la CIA jusqu'en octobre 2017, période à laquelle il a remis sa démission, frustré qu’il était que les Etats-Unis ne consacrent pas plus d'énergie et de moyens à la recherche sur les ovnis.
Enfin, le Pentagone, interrogé par l'agence Reuters à ce sujet, est resté très évasif vis-à-vis de la poursuite de ce programme de recherche.
Conclusion :
CQFD : La preuve que les ovnis sont une réalité est donnée et l’origine terrestre de ce phénomène est plus que jamais une hypothèse paraissant incohérente.
Voici une grande avancée en faveur du sujet qui nous passionne.
