Ils les ont vus... et ils l'ont fait savoir. Depuis 1979, trois Brivistes ont affirmé avoir observé des phénomènes étranges dans le ciel. Chaque cas a été traité par le Geipan, Groupe d'études et d'informations sur les phénomènes aérospatiaux non-identifiés.
Depuis 1953, l’organisme public Geipan (Groupe d’études et d’informations sur les phénomènes aérospatiaux non identifiés) a recensé trois « phénomènes » étranges à Brive.
1. Une apparition aux toilettes
Ce matin du 11 janvier 1979, un collégien de Brive se lève pour « aller au WC » vers 6h45. « J’ai ouvert la fenêtre pour observer le temps afin de m’habiller en conséquence », raconte-t-il dans procès-verbal rédigé par la gendarmerie. « J’ai alors constaté qu’un objet ovale, dont la forme ressemblait à un ballon de rugby, se déplaçait au-dessus de la route. » Le jeune homme estime que l’objet qu’il a aperçu est d’un volume équivalent à « une Citroën CX ». Il ajoute qu’il comportait, dans sa partie supérieure, « environ six feux fixes de couleur rouge et verte », ainsi qu’un feu de couleur jaune « bien plus important que les autres ».
La très sérieuse enquête réalisée par la gendarmerie conclura que le témoin a vu un avion de ligne FBOOM bimoteur. Un tel appareil a atterri, ce jour-là, à 6h42, pour redécoller à 6h59 de l’aérodrome de Brive, tout proche du lieu de l’observation. Une thèse confirmée par les déclarations d’un palefrenier travaillant dans un centre équestre tout proche du lieu de l’observation. « Assez fréquemment, à la même heure, j’entends le bruit de cet avion qui doit desservir une ligne […]. Le ronflement que j’ai entendu ce matin m’a paru être plus fort que celui produit par les petits avions de tourisme. Donc, il doit s’agir d’un avion de passagers un peu plus important que ceux de l’aéro-club », a-t-il indiqué lorsqu’il a été interrogé par les gendarmes.
Je ne pense pas que j’aie vu un avion, parce que cet engin ne faisait pas de bruit.
Dans le dossier compilé par le Geipan, figure également le témoignage du chef de l’aérodrome qui précise, à propos du bimoteur qui s’est posé ce matin-là : « Je dois dire que lors de l’atterrissage, cet appareil allume ses feux de position, un vert à droite et un rouge à gauche au bout de chaque aile. À la queue, il a également des feux. Il possède aussi deux phares d’atterrissage groupés très puissants émettant une lumière blanche très vive. » « Je ne pense pas que j’aie vu un avion, parce que cet engin ne faisait pas de bruit », avait pourtant affirmé le collégien dans sa déposition.
2. Une forme ronde derrière le Stadium
Le 26 novembre 1983, un homme à la crédibilité jugée « normale » témoigne auprès d’un adjudant-chef de la gendarmerie de Brive. Il déclare avoir aperçu, vers 9h10, un objet volant non-identifié. « Cet objet était, selon ses dires, de couleur rouge très vif, rapporte le gendarme. Il descendait verticalement à grande vitesse. Une trace blanche d’une longueur moyenne d’un à deux mètres lui était accolée. Il était d’une forme ronde de vingt à quarante centimètres. »
Le témoin affirme que l’Ovni se trouvait à environ cinq cents mètres de distance lorsqu’il l’a vu tomber « à une vitesse relativement élevée » dans le secteur du stadium municipal. « Je me suis immédiatement rendu sur place, par curiosité, pensant trouver une trace. Ma vision n’a été que de très courte durée, environ une seconde. Sur le coup, je me suis demandé si je ne rêvais pas. Néanmoins, je maintiens ma déclaration et je suis très formel. Je peux même dire que j’ai ressenti une vive émotion. »
Il explique avoir cherché une trace de cet objet, dans le secteur du stadium municipal, sans résultat. Les gendarmes ont eux aussi effectué des recherches dans le secteur « susmentionné » sans plus de résultat. « Plusieurs personnes ont été contactées, ainsi que le commissariat de police », écrit l’adjudant-chef en charge de l’affaire.
3. « Peur » à Ussac
Le 25 juin 2010, un homme âgé de trente-sept ans, habitant à Ussac, sur les hauteurs de Brive, aperçoit, pendant environ une minute, un objet scintillant descendant du ciel à grande vitesse. L’objet, « sphérique, blanc et trois fois plus lumineux qu’une étoile » s’arrête en vacillant et sans aucun bruit à cent mètres du témoin, qui affirme n’avoir consommé « ni alcool ni drogue ».
À la gendarmerie, cet homme confiera avoir été très secoué par cette étrange apparition. « Je suis rentré chez moi et je me suis enfermé. J’ai beaucoup réfléchi en me disant que c’était fou ce que je venais de voir. J’ai été pris d’un sentiment de peur et d’affolement. » Persuadé qu’il s’agit d’un « phénomène extraterrestre » ou d’un objet de « très haute technologie militaire », le témoin, qui se décrit comme un « grand lecteur de revues scientifiques », finira par contacter directement le Geipan. Jean-Baptiste Chadelle, correspondant du Geipan dans la région, a mené l’enquête. Pour lui, pas de doute : le témoin a observé un passage de l’ISS, la station spatiale internationale. Deux autres observations similaires avaient été effectuées, le même jour, à La Réole (Gironde) et Bruay-la-Buissière (Pas-de-Calais).

'It accelerated like nothing I've ever seen': Two Navy airmen describe encounter with what they believe was a UFO after the Pentagon reveals its multi-million dollar search program for mysterious objects
Navy Cmdr. David Fravor and Navy Lt. Cmdr. Jim Slaight were flying above Pacific Ocean in November 2004 during training mission
Fravor recounted how they came near mysterious object that he was 'pretty weirded out' by
He said at first it was hovering and then 'it accelerated like nothing I've ever seen'
His revelation comes after the Pentagon announced it ran the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program from 2007 to 2012
Its mission, which had a $22 million annual budget, was to investigate sightings and military encounters with unidentified flying objects, also known as UFOS
Founded amid fears they could be advanced weaponry or technology from foreign states such as Russia or China which could threaten the US
The program was created by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid
Two Navy airman flying over the Pacific Ocean on a routine training mission claim they encountered mysterious objects that 'accelerated like nothing' they had 'ever seen' before.
Back in 2004, Navy Cmdr. David Fravor and Navy Lt. Cmdr. Jim Slaight were flying about 100 miles off the coast of San Diego in each of their F/A-18F Super Hornets carrying two CATM-9s, which are dummy missiles that could not be fired, the New York Times reported.
According to Fravor, the operations officer aboard Navy cruiser U.S.S. Princeton had been communicating with the pair during their mission and said, 'Well, we've got a real-world vector for you.'
The operator said for the past two weeks the Navy cruiser had been tracking mysterious aircraft.
The objects would first appear at 80,000 feet, and then speed toward the sea before stopping at 20,000 feet and hovering.
Back in 2004, Navy Cmdr. David Fravor (pictured left with his wife) and Navy Lt. Cmdr. Jim Slaight were flying about 100 miles off the coast of San Diego in each of their F/A-18F Super Hornets on a routine training mission when they encountered a mysterious object
According to Fravor, the operations officer aboard Navy cruiser U.S.S. Princeton (file above) had been communicating with the pair during their mission and instructed to investigate the object that was picked up on radar
They then either shot back up into the sky or dropped off of radar.
Fravor and Slaight were instructed to investigate the objects by the radio operator on the Navy cruiser.
The two pilots followed their instructions and as they closed in, they were alerted by the operator that they could not tell which were the objects and which were the fighter jets.
At first, Fravor nor Slaight could see anything and nothing was on their radars.
But then Fravor looked down to the sea and noticed that the waves were breaking over something below the surface, causing the sea to churn.
Hovering about 50 feet above the churn was an aircraft of some sort that was whitish, 40 feet long and oval in shape, Fravor recounted.
He described to the Times that it was jumping erratically but not moving in any specific direction.
Fravor began a circular descent in an effort to get a closer look, but the object began ascending toward him as if it were trying to meet him halfway, he explained.
He then abandoned his slow circular descent and decided to fly straight towards the object.
Fravor said at first they couldn't see anything, but then they noticed the mysterious object that was whitish, 40 feet long and oval in shape. He said that he was 'pretty weirded out' by the encounter while flying in his F/A-18F Super Hornet (file above)
But then he said it quickly flew away.
'It accelerated like nothing I've ever seen,' he told the Times before adding that he was 'pretty weirded out.'
Fravor and Slaight then spoke with operations officer on their Navy cruiser and were told to fly to a rendezvous point about 60 miles away, which is called the cap point in aviation parlance.
As they were flying, the Princeton radioed again saying that radar had picked up the strange aircraft.
'Sir, you won't believe it,' the radio operator said, 'but that thing is at your cap point.'
'We were at least 40 miles away, and in less than a minute this thing was already at our cap point,' Fravor said.
Once they arrived, the object had disappeared and the two fighter jets returned to the Nimitz.
Fravor said that he was made fun of after people aboard the ship had learned of his encounter.
Fravor's story about the mysterious object comes as the Pentagon reveals it had a secret multi-million dollar program to investigate UFO sightings
When asked by another pilot of the situation, Fravor said: 'I have no idea what I saw. It had no plumes, wings or rotors and outran our F-18s.'
He added, 'I want to fly one.'
His superiors did not investigate further.
Fravor has since retired from the Navy after deploying to the Persian Gulf providing air support to ground troops during the Iraq war.
Fravor's account of what he claims happened in November 2004 has emerged after it was revealed the Pentagon set up a secret multi-million dollar program to investigate UFO sightings.
The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ran from 2007 to 2012, with a $22 million annual budget, with the mission of looking into reports of military encounters with unidentified flying objects.
The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ran from 2007 to 2012, with a $22 million annual budget
The Defense Department finally acknowledged the existence of its long-secret UFO investigation program on Saturday, when officials shifted attention and funding to other priorities.
Its initial funding came largely at the request of former Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat long known for his enthusiasm for space phenomena, the newspaper said.
The program was created by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), with the support of the late Senators Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Republican Ted Stevens (R-Alaska).
Their fears were that the unexplained phenomena could be advanced weaponry or technology from foreign states such as Russia or China which could threaten the US.
'Was this China or Russia trying to do something or has some propulsion system we are not familiar with?' a former staffer told Politico.
While former career intelligence officer Luis Elizondo, who ran the initiative, stressed he wanted to take the 'voodoo' out of a 'voodoo science,' the program investigated some issues that sound like they're straight out of a science fiction movie.
They included 'wormholes' and 'warp drives' as well as interviewing pilots and military personnel who reported experiences with UFOs.
Elizondo said that many of the Navy pilots described aircraft moving and acting in a way that seemed to be beyond human beings' current capabilities.
'We had never seen anything like it,' he said.
The former staffer said that Reid believed there could be a valid national security issue and so agreed to fund the program.
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF A CONSPIRACY THEORIST
Over the course of three online-based studies, researchers at the University of Kent showed strong links between the belief in conspiracy theories and these psychological traits.
The results showed that those people who rated highly on the narcissism scale and who had low self-esteem were more likely to be conspiracy believers.
However, while low self-esteem, narcissism and belief in conspiracies are strongly linked, it is not clear that one - or a combination - causes the other.
But it hints at an interesting new angle to the world of conspiracy and those who reinforce belief.
But after a few years, and very little to show for it, Reid decided it wasn't worth continuing.
'After a while the consensus was we really couldn't find anything of substance,' he recalled. 'They produced reams of paperwork. After all of that there was really nothing there that we could find. It all pretty much dissolved from that reason alone—and the interest level was losing steam. We only did it a couple years.'
'There was really nothing there that we could justify using taxpayer money,' he added. 'We let it die a slow death. It was well spent money in the beginning.'
According to the the Pentagon, the program 'ended in the 2012 timeframe.'
Yet according to its backers, the program remains in existence and officials continue to investigate UFO episodes brought to their attention by service members, the newspaper said.
The Pentagon openly acknowledged the fate of the program in response to a Reuters query.
'The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ended in the 2012 timeframe,' Pentagon spokeswoman Laura Ochoa said in an email.
'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 said.
The program was created by then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (pictured)
But the Pentagon was less clear about whether the UFO program continues to hover somewhere in the vast universe of the U.S. defense establishment.
'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,' Ochoa said.
What is less in doubt is former senator Reid's enthusiasm for UFOs and his likely role in launching the Pentagon initiative to identify advanced aviation threats.
'If you've talked to Harry Reid for 60 seconds then it's the least surprising thing ever that he loves UFOs and got an earmark to study them,' former Reid spokeswoman Kristen Orthman said in a message on Twitter.
Or as Reid himself said in a tweet that linked to the Times' story: 'The truth is out there. Seriously.'
Elizondo has since joined former Blink 182 vocalist Tom DeLonge's company To The Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences - described as a 'public benefit corporation' that has 'mobilized a team of the most experienced, connected and passionately curious minds from the U.S. intelligence community, including the CIA, Department of Defense, who have been operating under the shadows of top-secrecy for decades.'
CIA RELEASES ITS OWN 'X-FILES'
Last year, the CIA released a glimpse into its own set of 'X-Files,' a small compilation of documents pulled from its expansive UFO collection, dating back to the 1940s.
The agency said that these documents appeal to both skeptics and believers – the Scullys and Mulders of the world – who seek to prove scientific explanations, or confirm the existence of extraterrestrial activity.
A reported UFO sighting over Minnville, Oregon, is pictured above
One of the documents among the CIA's 'X-Files' is from East Germany in 1952, where agents were called to investigate what witnesses described as a 'huge flying pan'.
The object was said to have a diameter of about 15 meters, according to the document.
Similar flying saucers were also spotted in North Africa and Spain, the report said.
'The picture [of the object] shows a diagonal stripe of diminishing width and lighter in shade than the sky over the dark bulk of a building cornice,' it was noted.
Included with some of the documents were three pictures of the alleged extraterrestrials.
One of the photos - taken by British student Alex Birch in 1962 - claimed to show a group of flying saucers flying over the city of Sheffield in the UK.
Also contained in the files is the case in Socorro, New Mexico in 1964, when police officer Lonnie Zamora spotted a large flame rise from the ground and pierce the sky above a remote patch of desert.
Upon investigation, he found a shiny object the size of a sedan perched on the hilltop, which was oval in shape and aluminium in color.
The object then began to rise into the air and then sped away from him over the mountains and disappeared.
An explanation for this case has never been determined.

Strange Dimming Star May Be Scarfing Down Wrecked Planets
Strange Dimming Star May Be Scarfing Down Wrecked Planets
BySamantha Mathewson, Space.com Contributor
Vast orbiting clouds of planetary wreckage could be causing a distant young star's strange dimming behavior, a new study shows.
The star, known as RZ Piscium, is located about 550 light-years away, in the constellation Pisces. Observations of the young sun-like star revealed unpredictable dimming episodes, during which the star becomes as much as 10 times fainter, according to a statement from NASA announcing the findings.
"Our observations show there are massive blobs of dust and gas that occasionally block the star's light and are probably spiraling into it," Kristina Punzi, lead author of the study and a doctoral student at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in New York, said in the statement. "Although there could be other explanations, we suggest this material may have been produced by the break-up of massive orbiting bodies near the star." [10 Exoplanets That Could Host Alien Life]
In the study, the astronomers found that the star's erratic dimming behavior can last as long as two days. Observations also showed that nearly 8 percent of the star's total luminosity is infrared, which is a far larger proportion of infrared radiation than that produced by most other stars, such as our sun. This suggests that an enormous amount of warm dust surrounds the star, according to the NASA statement.
Using the European Space Agency's (ESA) XMM-Newton satellite, the researchers confirmed the star's youth by measuring its X-ray output, which is roughly 1,000 times greater than the X-ray output from our sun, according to the statement — younger stars often release more X-ray radiaton.
Furthermore, ground-based observations from the Shane 3-meter telescope at Lick Observatory in California and the 10-meter Keck I telescope at W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii revealed that the surface temperature of the star is approximately 9,600 degrees Fahrenheit (5,300 degrees Celsius), which is only slightly cooler than the surface temperature of the sun. Also, the observations showed traces of lithium, which is slowly destroyed by nuclear reactions inside a star as it ages.
"The amount of lithium in a star's surface declines as it ages, so it serves as a clock that allows us to estimate the elapsed time since a star's birth," study co-author Joel Kastner, director of RIT's Laboratory for Multiwavelength Astrophysics, said in the statement. "Our lithium measurement for RZ Piscium is typical for a star of its surface temperature that is about 30 to 50 million years old."
Generally, the disk of planet-forming material surrounding a sun-like star condenses to form planets and moons within a few million years of the star’s birth. However, a large amount of gas and dust still circles RZ Piscium, which suggests the star is destroying planets in its vicinity, rather than building them.
The clouds of debris, which orbit approximately 30 million miles (50 million kilometers) from the star, likely formed following a planetary collision, and RZ Piscium now feeds on the leftover planetary material, according to the statement.
But there's a twist: In addition to the leftover material falling inward toward the star, the observations suggest that some of the dust is also flowing outward from the star, the researchers said.
This indicates that RZ Piscium may exert tidal forces that strip material from a neighboring stellar companion or giant planet. This, in turn, would produce intermittent streams of gas and dust, according to the statement.
"While we think the bulk of this debris is about as close to the star as the planet Mercury ever gets to our sun, the measurements also show variable and rapidly moving emission and absorption from hydrogen-rich gas," study co-author Carl Melis, an associate research scientist at the University of California, San Diego, said in the statement.
Based on their observations, the researchers suggest that the star is gobbling up a large planet. The star’s gravity would ultimately rip the planet to shreds, causing some of the observed bursts in X-rays, the researchers said.
Their findings were published Dec. 21 in The Astronomical Journal.

Sneeuwdek van 40 centimeter in… de Sahara. Bekijk hier unieke beelden van sneeuw in de woestijn
Unieke beelden in de Sahara afgelopen weekend: de woestijn kleurde wit na een sneeuwbui. Het was de derde keer in bijna 40 jaar tijd.
De grootste zandwoestijn van onze planeet was dit weekend bedekt met een laag sneeuw van maar liefst 40 centimeter. De inwoners van het Algerijnse Aïn Sefra konden hun ogen dan ook amper geloven toen ze zondag wakker werden.
Echt verrast
Fotograaf Karim Bouchetata kon er unieke beelden van maken. “We waren echt verrast toen we opstonden met sneeuw,” zei hij.
“Het is bijna de hele dag blijven liggen, maar in de late namiddag begon het te smelten,” voegde hij toe.
Eind 2016 en begin vorig jaar kregen de inwoners ook te maken met sneeuwbuien, al waren die toen veel kleiner. Daarvoor was er sinds 18 februari 1979 geen sneeuw meer gevallen.
Super Rare Blue Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse on January 31, 2018
Super Rare Blue Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse on January 31, 2018
End of January to see stunning collision of three lunar sights. The end of this month we will see the beginning of one of the moon's most beautiful nights. On 31 January appear a blood moon, a Supermoon and a total lunar eclipse, all on one night.
Some people including NASA are referring to it as a super blue blood moon and it is the first blue moon total lunar eclipse in over a century.
The last couple of months we have seen some strange events along the coasts of several countries, like the last week in Ecuador where the ocean suddenly disappeared from the coast.
So without doubt this super blue blood moon will have an effect on tides, due to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun which arrange themselves more or less along a line in space At these times, the high tides are very high and the low tides are very low.
At the Las Vegas international airport, there's an terminal where planes take off and land all day. The parking lot for this terminal fills up with hundreds of cars, which leave by the end of the day. But no one knows who runs the Gold Coast Terminal, or who boards those planes. We do know what the airline is called--JANET--though we don't know what it stands for. It's suggested that the acronym means Joint Air Network for Employee Transportation, but it's often referred to by secret aviation fans as Just Another Non-Existent Terminal.
Hundreds, or maybe even thousands of people take the airline every day. But where do they go? Tracking the planes, we can see that many of them head to Air Force research facilities and US weapons testing locations like the Tonopah Test Range. But some of them also turn off their transponders right as they reach the location known as Area 51, the center of conspiracy theorist lore for decades.
It's likely that JANET is simply how government employees commute to their top secret jobs every day. But it's sure fun to imagine what else could be going on.
Three days ago, The New York Times published what appeared to be a bombshell of a story. The report revealed that, from roughly 2007 through 2012, the Department of Defense ran a small program out of the Defense Intelligence Agency known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program. The mission was, in short, to look into UFO reports and assess if any of them represented a threat to the United States. On the face of it, that looks like a big deal in anybody’s book. But was it really?
While wearing the uniform, I had the opportunity to participate in several very interesting, highly-classified efforts. Known as “Special Access Programs,” they are actually higher than Top Secret. Not only do you need a Top Secret Special Compartmentalized Information (TS/SCI) clearance, you also need to be vetted and then specifically given an in-briefing. You cannot even reveal the mere existence of the program itself, let alone anything from within the project. These are the sort of things that make headlines when they are revealed but which are often prosaic in origin or execution.
The fact is that the Department of Defense looks at a huge number of things, from the future effects of global warming to the games that Chinese strategists play as kids that may affect their modes of thinking. The extreme level of classification of many such studies often comes from one of two reasons. The first and most obvious is a desire to conceal a capability from any potential competitor or enemy. The second is, essentially, political: a desire not to be embarrassed, either by political leaders or the leaders of the various branches of the Department of Defense. In some cases, it’s both. This time, however, it appears to be only the latter.
July 30, 1952: Officers of the operations,technical and intelligence divisions of the USAF are shown at a news conference where they announced they are setting up a battery of more than 200 cameras in attempts to obtain data on the ’unidentified objects’ reported from various parts of the nation.
GETTY
This is not the first time the Department of Defense has looked into the issue of UFOs. Indeed, its’s not even the second or third. In fact, the very term “Unidentified Flying Object” came from a USAF officer, Captain Edward Ruppelt, who was the first leader of the largest of these efforts known as “Project Blue Book.” The first of those studies started in 1947 and, under three different names (the last being Blue Book), officially lasted more than 20 years before finally shutting down in 1969.
Though Blue Book went through ups and downs over the years, it was pretty credible under the first director of the program, and over time they received and examined some 12,618 reports. (You can go see their declassified files yourself at the National Archives.) This being the digital age, you can access copies of everything online as well. If that is not enough, you can read Captain Ruppelt’s own summary of the project.
Believers and skeptics alike will probably both dive in on this, and not a few conspiracy theorists will latch onto the fact that the program was classified and funded through a part of the “secret” Department of Defense budget. And truth be told, if the numbers are to be believed, there has indeed been an uptick in UFO reporting over the past decade.
The openly acknowledged facts, however, suggest that my point about the reasoning for the secrecy was much more benign than some vast government cover-up of “the truth.” Spending only $22 million over five years really is small-beans by most measures. It suggests that this whole effort, averaging $4.4 million per year, was likely conducted by no more than a dozen people. The primary reason was likely classified to prevent political egg landing on anyone’s face.
Sure would be interesting to see what they found though.

WETENSCHAP & PLANEETDe Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA heeft een prachtige foto vrijgegeven van de planeet Jupiter. Kunst uit de ruimte, want de afbeelding lijkt wel van de hand van schilder Vincent van Gogh. Toch is ze echt.
De ruimtesonde Juno legde de atmosfeer van de grootste planeet van ons zonnestelsel vast op de gevoelige plaat. Het onbemande ruimtevaartuig deed er vijf jaar over om het hemellichaam te bereiken en voert nu een jaar lang observaties uit rond Jupiter.
Deze foto werd midden december vorig jaar genomen vanop een afstand van meer dan 13.000 kilometer van de planeet. In de rechterbovenhoek is de overgang van dag naar nacht te zien, legt NASA uit op haar website.
Een geheime spionagesatelliet van de Amerikanen, die zondag gelanceerd werd, is nooit in een baan om de aarde terechtgekomen. Dat laat het Pentagon weten. Het ministerie van Defensie weet niet waar het apparaat dan wel is, maar neemt aan dat de lancering mislukt is.
Een Falcon-draagraket van de Amerikaanse raketbouwer SpaceX moest de satelliet in een baan om de aarde brengen. De lancering vanaf Cape Canaveral was om technische redenen al eens uitgesteld.
Northrop Grumman is de bouwer van de satelliet, die de codenaam Zuma droeg en miljarden gekost heeft. Waarvoor de kunstmaan precies was bedoeld, is geheim. Een woordvoerder van SpaceX van Elon Musk wil niet ingaan op de missie. Wel laat hij weten dat op basis van de eerste data de Falcon 9 normaal heeft gefunctioneerd.
One of the highlights of 2017 was the discovery of the first object in our solar system that definitely came from somewhere else. At first we thought it was a comet, then an asteroid, and now the International Astronomical Union has reclassified it as something new entirely, an interstellar object. The Hawaiian astronomers who discovered it aptly named it ‘Oumuamua, which means “a messenger from afar arriving first”, reflecting that this object is like a scout sent from the past to reach out to us.
Research has already helped us learn a lot about 'Oumuamua’s rare cigar-like shape, what it’s made of (ice with a carbon-rich surface) and its highly unusual orbit, which will take it out of our solar system at a speed of around 26 km/s. The Breakthrough Listen research program has even investigated whether 'Oumuamua is an alien space ship by scanning the object for life forms with the Green Bank Telescope. No intelligent signals have been identified so far, though further observations are planned.
Now my latest study gives us a glimpse of exactly where 'Oumuamua may have come from. Reconstructing the object’s motion, my research suggests it probably came from the nearby “Pleiades moving group” of young stars, also known as the “Local Association”. It was likely ejected from its home solar system and sent out to travel interstellar space.
Based on 'Oumuamua’s trajectory, I simulated how it has probably travelled through the galaxy and compared this to the motions of nearby stars. I found the object passed 109 stars within a distance of 16 light years. It went by five of these stars from in the Local Association (a group of young stars likely to have formed together), at a very slow speed relative to their movement.
It’s likely that when 'Oumuamua was first ejected into space, it was travelling at just enough speed to break away from the gravity of its planet or star of origin, rather than at a much faster speed that would require even more energy. This means we’d expect the object to move relatively slowly at the start of its interstellar journey, and so its slow encounters with these five stars suggests it was ejected from one of the group.
When was it kicked out of its home?
Stars typically move with an average speed when they are formed and gradually change speed as they encounter very large objects, such as massive stars and molecular clouds and are affected by their gravity. Unlike most nearby stars, 'Oumuamua moves very slowly compared to the average motion of the rest of the galaxy. This suggests it has only been travelling in interstellar space for a relatively short time and hasn’t had a chance to encounter many massive objects that would speed it up.
We also have evidence for 'Oumuamua’s relatively young age from the colour of its surface. Outside of the protection of a star’s magnetic field, objects in space are bombarded with cosmic rays and interstellar dust and gas that gradually alter their surfaces and turn them very red in colour. But 'Oumuamua has a more neutral colour, suggesting it has only been impacted by cosmic rays for, at most, hundreds of million years rather than for the billions of years that our solar system has existed.
How was it ejected?
'Oumuamua is extremely elongated and has quite a different shape from other objects in our solar system. It was probably formed by a relatively high-energy process such as a collision, or ejected from a forming star. Most objects in the outer part of a planetary system are made more of ice and most objects in the inner regions are made more of rocks. Since 'Oumuamua is a more even mix of iceand rocks, it’s likely it came from the middle part of a solar system, similar to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter that features a mixture of icy and rocky asteroids.
Perhaps the most plausible scenario is that 'Oumuamua was ejected from a closely separated binary star system made of two stars closely orbiting each other. Objects orbiting one of the stars in a binary system will be strongly affected by the gravity of the other and so can be more easily ejected from the system than if it had just one star.
'Oumuamua is probably just the tip of the iceberg. My research suggests there are likely more than 46m similar interstellar objects crossing the solar system every year. Most of them will be too far away for us to see with our current telescopes. But new telescopes and surveys should soon be able to find these interstellar messengers, which may be sending us important information about how stars and planets formed. Studying more objects like 'Oumuamua will enable us to work out how much debris is left over from star formation and how much this adds to the mass of our galaxy.
Another reason to study these interstellar objects is that they could one day threaten to collide with the Earth and cause catastrophic events such as mass extinctions. The more we know, the better prepared we’ll be if that day ever comes.
Oorsprong van eerste waargenomen bezoeker van buiten ons zonnestelsel ontdekt. Hier komt Oumuamua vandaan
Oorsprong van eerste waargenomen bezoeker van buiten ons zonnestelsel ontdekt. Hier komt Oumuamua vandaan
Als Tabby’s ster de meest mysterieuze ster in het sterrenstelsel is, is de asteroïde Oumuamua waarschijnlijk het meest mysterieuze ruimtegesteente. Het object heeft nog het meest weg van een enorme, vliegende sigaar.
De asteroïde werd onlangs nog onderzocht op tekenen van buitenaards leven. Die zijn tot op heden niet gevonden.
Eerdere wetenschappelijke studies over ruimtereizen suggereerden dat langwerpige sondes het meest geschikt zijn voor langdurige reizen in de kosmos.
Plejaden
Dit soort aerodynamische objecten hebben simpelweg het minst te duchten van interstellair gas.
Astronomen ontdekten verder dat het hemellichaam is gehuld in een vreemd organisch laagje en mogelijk uit ijs en gesteente bestaat.
Eén astronoom heeft nu ontdekt waar dit vreemde object vandaan komt. Oumuamua is hoogstwaarschijnlijk afkomstig uit de Plejaden, een verzameling jonge sterren, zo stelt Fabo Feng in een nieuwe studie.
Te zwak
Op basis van de snelheid en baan van Oumuamua berekende Feng dat het gesteente uit het Zevengesternte moet komen.
De sterrenkundige denkt dat jaarlijks 46 miljoen van dit soort interstellaire objecten ons zonnestelsel passeren, maar dat onze telescopen te zwak zijn om ze te kunnen spotten.
Duizenden jaren
Sommige hooggeplaatste personen hebben gezegd dat de aarde al duizenden jaren wordt bezocht door buitenaardse rassen van de Plejaden.
Zo zei de Canadese oud-minister van Defensie Paul Hellyer in gesprek met RT dat buitenaardse soorten uit verschillende sterrensystemen komen, waaronder de Plejaden.
As if astronauts needed one more horror to worry about in the soul-crushing vacuum of deep space. Between the perils of cosmic radiation, the unknown side effects of unexplained genome changes, and the whole blowing up upon launch thing, it’s not easy being a space traveller. Now, a team of international medical researchers has conducted a study of astronauts’ health while aboard the International Space Station and has discovered a new threat: “space fever.” While space fever sounds like a perfect title for a 1950s B movie, the condition is actually a little understood and potentially life-threatening condition which could hamper our plans at deep space travel.
Space very well could be one of the worst places to get sick.
After combing through health records of eleven different ISS astronauts, researchers found that all astronauts’ body temperatures increased by 1°C (1.8°F) after just a few months in space and remained elevated for the duration of astronauts’ time in space. In their published data, the researchers claim that while mild, this “space fever” poses a significant problem for space agencies and their astronauts:
This space fever, as we may call it, has potential implications for long-term spaceflights in terms of astronauts’ health, well-being, and support, including energy, nutrient, and fluid requirements as well as physical and cognitive performance.
Even increase of body temperature of this small magnitude can lead to serious health complications if left unchecked for long periods of time. Along with the increased body temperatures, researchers also discovered increases in certain inflammation markers. Together, these all indicate that the human body is definitely better suited for life on Earth as opposed to space, meaning we have a lot more barriers to overcome than just fuel and food supplies before we can join Elon Musk’s car on Mars. We’ll figure it out though, right?
Should we create a genetically-altered race of deep space supermen to carry our stink throughout the galaxy?
Wouldn’t that be a cruel irony to develop the means of deep space travel but be unable to go due to the limitations of these crude, stinking meat sacs we’re cursed to inhabit. Of course, given recent advances in gene editing, it likely won’t be long before we can simply create genetically advanced astronauts who can withstand deep space much better than our current models. As with everything though, we likely won’t know the long-term implications of such therapies until space stations are crawling with horrifying human hybrids hell-bent on eating brains and chewing gum. And I don’t need to tell you how scarce gum is in space. Should we aim for the stars no matter what the cost? Per aspera ad astra.
This video was filmed in April 2015 but was just recently submitted to MUFON.
Witness report:
I was on my way to work and my first turn was down a hill (My city is in a river valley). I saw these three bright lights in the sky not much higher than my current elevation. I drove down the hill and pulled off at a conveinent place and took out my cell phone. I believe it was a iphone 4s. I began to record these slow moving objects. I propped my cellphone on the hood of my truck so the images wouldn’t be too shakey (I do believe in UFOs and I hate shakey videos). Anyway. I saw what looked like a police car (Gonzaga University Police) was my first thought. I was at a new construction site and having worked the US Census in 2010 I knew these guys were no fun to deal with and cut my video because there was an arson fire at a previous build. Anyway, I left. I was hoping to catch the lights again on a bridge over a valley on my way to work (which would have been amazing). But, I never saw the slow moving lights again. I want to add I have about 10 years in Security and was on my way to work at an airport. These lights were not on any flight path I have ever seen (They mostly fly just north of my house). I believe this is the exact date. I am using my cellphones date / time stamp.

Filer’s Files #1 – 2018 Happy UFO New Year - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: President Clinton and Hillary Enjoyed Alien Movies, Mystery Space Machines Above Black Ops, Star Wars Or ET? Senator Harry Reid Pushed Pentagon UFO Program, and More Data About Pentagon UFO Program.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over California, Florida, Illinois, Maine, New York, Oklahoma, and Washington.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Australia, Canada, Dominican Republic, and England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The US Air Force investigated UFOs publicly for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
I wish you all a most Happy New Year and thanks for your many letters and friendship you have shared with me this past year.
Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.

President Clinton and Hilleary Enjoyed Alien Movies
Grant Cameron writes, “It is a generally accepted fact within the UFO community that Bill Clinton and his wife had an interest in discovering the answer to the UFO puzzle. He had even sent his close friend Webster Hubbell to look into the UFO mystery. What many don’t know, however, is how open Bill and Hillary were about talking about the subject. They talked about UFOs and aliens at least 26 times on the record while in the White House. This was far beyond any presidential administration. Like Ronald Reagan, both Bill and Hillary Clinton expressed interest in the concept of an alien invasion. Reagan had spoken of the “alien invasion” half a dozen times while in the White House. The Clintons would talk about it even more and were sent these files.
The first time President Clinton brought up the idea of an alien invasion idea during an interview with Tom Brokaw of MSNBC. This interview, done on July 15, 1996, involved the just released movie
“Independence day.” Clinton conveyed to Brokaw how much he had enjoyed the movie. “I loved it. I loved it and — Mr. Pullman came and showed it. I thought he made a good president. And we watched the movie together, and I told him after it was over he was a good president, and I was glad we won. And it made me wonder if I should take flying lessons.[1] Interview of the President by Tom Brokaw of MSNBC, Office of the Press Secretary, July 15, 1996. The reception, dinner and premiere of the blockbuster movieIndependence Day occurred in the White House on June 22, 1996.
During the interview, Brokaw took a question asking Clinton if he thought that we could actually win a war against the aliens if they were to attack America.
President Clinton replied, “Yes, I think we’d fight them off. We find a way to win. That’s what America does — we’d find a way to win if it happened.” The President then launched into a speech about the positive elements of an alien invasion.
The good thing about Independence Day is there’s an ultimate lesson for that — for the problems right here on Earth. We whipped that problem by working together with all these countries. And all of a sudden the differences we had with them seemed so small once we realized there were threats that went beyond our borders. And I wish that we could think about that when we deal with terrorism and when we deal with weapons proliferation — the difference between all these others problems. That’s the lesson I wish people would take away from Independence Day.Thanks to Grant Cameron and http://www.presidentialufo.com/
Mystery Space Machines Above Black Ops, Star Wars Or ET?
A young man by the name of John Lenard Walson has discovered a new way to extend the capabilities of small telescopes and has been able to achieve optical resolutions – at almost the diffraction limit – not commonly achievable. He is videotaping many strange and heretofore unseen machines, hardware, satellites, spacecraft and possibly space ships.
Jeff Rense has kindly allowed me to show you his world exclusive images. and videotape footage by John Lenard Walson. All Rights Strictly Reserved. This is story is “Reproduced With Permission “of Jeff Rense and John Lenard Walson..
Editor’s Note: These objects in space may be alien space craft or belong to other nations. The International Space Station (ISS) is the only known unclassified large facility currently being assembled in space. These objects in space are similar to objects seen from the shuttle such as this one filmed near Greenland.
Senator Harry Reid Pushed Pentagon UFO Program
Retired Nevada Senator Harry Reid was behind the recently-revealed Pentagon UFO research program, that has spawned headlines around the world. The shadowy program — parts of it remain classified — began in 2007, and initially it was largely funded at the request of Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat who was the Senate majority leader at the time and who has long had an interest in space phenomena.
Most of the money went to an aerospace research company run by a billionaire entrepreneur and longtime friend of Mr. Reid’s, Robert Bigelow, who is currently working with NASA to produce expandable craft for humans to use in space.
On CBS’s “60 Minutes” in May, Mr. Bigelow said he was “absolutely convinced” that aliens exist and that U.F.O.s have visited Earth.
Harry Reid the former Senate Majority Leader was remarkably forthcoming about the program and how it developed.Asked how he feels about the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program being revealed to the public, Reid responded, “I’m very glad, because now we have scientific evidence.”
To that end, the retired Senator indicated to radio announcer George Knapp that, the results of the study were impressive. The Pentagon acknowledged on Saturday that its long-secret UFO investigation program ended in 2012, when U.S. defense officials shifted attention and funding to other priorities.
The $22 million spent on the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program was almost impossible to find. Which was how the Pentagon wanted it.
For years, the program investigated reports of unidentified flying objects, according to Defense Department officials, interviews with program participants and records obtained by The New York Times. It was run by a military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring, deep within the building’s maze.
The Defense Department has never before acknowledged the existence of the program, which it says it allegedly shut down in 2012. But its backers say that, while the Pentagon ended funding for the effort at that time, the program remains in existence. For the past five years, they say, officials with the program have continued to investigate episodes brought to them by service members, while also carrying out their other Defense Department duties.
But as to whether the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program has continued to investigate UFO sightings since its funding ended five years ago could rank as an unexplained phenomenon. the term threat indicates concern of a possible enemy threat
The New York Times reported on Saturday that the hush-hush program, tasked with investigating sightings of unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, ran from 2007 to 2012 while George W. Bush was President. with $22 million in annual funding secretly tucked away in U.S. Defense Department budgets worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
Yet according to its backers, the program remains in existence and officials continue to investigate UFO episodes brought to their attention by service members, the newspaper said.
The Pentagon openly acknowledged the fate of the program in response to a Reuters query.
“The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program ended in the 2012 timeframe,” Pentagon spokeswoman Laura Ochoa said in an email. ” But the Pentagon was less clear about whether the UFO program continues to hover somewhere in the vast universe of the U.S. defense establishment.
“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,” Ochoa said.
But as to whether the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program has continued to investigate UFO sightings since its funding ended five years ago could rank as an unexplained phenomenon.
Note: My experience is that since World War II the government has had various programs to study UFOs. Generally, the programs are highly classified so only a few high ranking officials have access. Yet according to its backers, the program remains in existence and officials continue to investigate UFO episodes brought to their attention by service members, the newspaper said.
The Pentagon openly acknowledged the fate of the program in response to a Reuters query.
“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,” Ochoa said.
What is less in doubt is former senator Reid’s enthusiasm for UFOs and his likely role in launching the Pentagon initiative to identify advanced aviation threats.
According to Senator Reid, Bigelow was awarded the contract because he “gave the best cost” and was “willing to build the infrastructure and build everything on his own.” It is known he worked with MUFON to gain access to important cases. According to Knapp’s report, the program boasted a team of 46 scientists and employed ‘rapid response teams’ to investigate UFO cases which came in to the group. Reid refuted reports that he had a hand in ending the AATIP, saying “I wish it were still going.”
Revealed Data About Pentagon UFO Program
David Watkinson writes as promised, here’s a link to the navy pilot’s account on Fox:
On Wednesday, December 20, 2017, David Mathes wrote:
IMHO he offered a fresh face for an almost 70 year old narrative of seven talking points. IMHO no breakthrough in release of information and “no compelling evidence.” Just a broadcast reminder of hope for a slow news day during the Christmas season.
Note that the Obama administration opened the office and the Trump administration closed the office. Some folks would say both have been briefed but neither has high enough access to the files and current work. So far, only visual sighting evidence has been brought to our attention from him; from a scientific view, there is no physical evidence that he presented. So, don’t get too exuberant since this particular USG office is closed. It’s not the start of disclosure, just a reminder and reinforcement that *something is out there.*
The talking points of Mr. Elizondo are consistent with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) aka UFO sightings. So far, he has not elaborated beyond things in the air. No USO. Nothing about platforms and vehicles in space. Nothing exotic like Krasnikov tubes or even warp drive. and nothing that goes beyond Paul Hill’s book Unconventional Flying Objects.
So let’s take a look at the seven claims Luis Elizondo puts forth about what his office investigated that parallels General Twinning’s 1947 UFO Report. His words are in quotes.
Electric, magnetic, gravitational (sic) and inertia forces must all be controlled for flight. These craft do it better than our rotating machinery and apparently have internally integrated the flight control for attitude and velocity/acceleration along a path. Field control externally is part of the answer. Internally, there may be moving energy states involving oscillating or circulation of mass states including solid, liquid, gas and plasma.
The lack of “any obvious forms of propulsion” (no prop or jet)
Current known advanced efforts in leading propulsion research (basic R&D, not product R&D)
“Extreme Maneuverability” – Inertia is the issue, especially angular momentum
The key question is how angular momentum is conserved. Keep in mind that multiple sources of thrust may be available and well coordinated. Also, relativistic level analysis (General relativity, not special UFOs have Supermaneuverability, Energy–maneuverability_theory, Angular_momentum
In atmosphere, velocities up to Mach 10 before ionization begins. By Mach 12 in the atmosphere, almost all known materials and coatings ionize and disperse.
“Positive lift” (hover and lift)
Note choice of “lift”. It’s not aerodynamic lift but vertical velocities of a craft from a hover position is what he is speaking of.
“Not known (by him) in US inventory” (that he is aware of)
“Not known (by him) in foreign inventory” (that he is aware of)
Common technologies used to correlate and confirm visual sightings
Beyond radio, there were at least two technologies instrumental in his presentation: radar and electro-optics. Here is a brief summary.
Bob Tarantino ~1929 to 1935
Radar dates back to the 1929 for antiaircraft fire and even further into the 19th century for noticing interference above noise. UFOs are frequently tracked on radar.
Radar developed rapidly after the invention of Cavity_magnetron in the late 1930s.
This device was used for radar then and emDrives now.
For velocities above Mach 3, at two ground air traffic radars are required to simply identify faster moving anythings. Over-the-horizon radars have at least 10x the distance capability of the ~250 mile range of ATC radars. So hypervelocity vehicles traveling Mach 5 or higher are an issue. In the atmosphere, 0he upper limit is above Mach 10 when everything unprotected ionizes. Mach 10 is about 7600 mph. Most sightings from ground are far less but greater than Mach 4 which is the limit of jet craft so far. Above Mach 5, one has to go to scramjet and rocket technologies or borrow something seen leaving the atmosphere.
The most important thing is that in the optical spectrum many of these observers cannot see aerial objects due to cloaking or fast movement. However, most craft have an infrared signature which is more difficult to mask or hide.
The Navy pilot provides an interesting view as if the vehicle were in a cloud chamber. The visual sighting suggests a field driven craft. Field drives us electromagnetic fields as well as gravitational AND inertia fields to control the craft especially in space but quite useful in earth’s atmosphere with no obvious control surfaces.
For attitude and path control of a craft without observable control surfaces for some time there has been in the works at leading aerospace manufacturers. The physics of ions (electrohydrodynamics) can be used to control lift, thrust, drag and even work against gravity. Fully developed, commercial planes could have a no-moving-parts control surfaces within the next ten years.
In order to detect most vehicles or platforms, IR and starlight-type scopes are very useful. In all cases, a thorough scan across the Em spectrum from DC to beyond light is required. A 3D scan of the acoustic spectrum is also required since reflections and refractions can create ghost imaging and hide actual sources of sounds.
We are at a time in history where we may see US or foreign countries produce a vehicle with the propulsion system only on the inside of the craft and generating fields outside the craft for deflection of particles and fields resulting in silent travel.
At the same time one has to be very skeptical of any pronouncement and understand clearly what not only is being said, but what is left unsaid.
For some, the hope of ETs lies in camera/movie evidence. While fascinating, given the graphics, imaging and special effects along with vehicles and platforms such as RC helicopters and quadcompters, this may not be enough in many cases and simply a form of entertaining game of “what’s that?”
As a result of technologies that can simulate, spoof or prank the observer such as CGI and projector systems, the bar of “compelling evidence” needs to be raised.
“Not in our inventory….There is very compelling evidence that we are not alone.” Thanks to Luis Elizondo, recent Head of Pentagon UFO program. On Wednesday, December 20, 2017, Thanks to Bruce Cornet and Bob Tarantino.
Pilots and astronauts who have seen UFOs, often claim the UFO is the size of an aircraft carrier. There is no question in my mind that they exist. I don’t know for certain what UFOs are, who is flying them, but something strange is flying in our skies. They could be a natural phenomenon not understood. Several times while in Air Force intelligence, I briefed UFOs to numerous general officers. I attempted to obtain documentation and films of UFOs from the Air Force. I was told the evidence was there with safes full of evidence, but I needed the signature of my four star commanding general to see it. I have a dozens of friends who also know they exist, and seen various types of evidence. I’m part of the Disclosure Project that includes over one hundred military and government personnel ready to testify to Congress about the phenomenon.”

Filer’s Files #1 – 2018 Happy UFO New Year - PART II
UFO Sightings in the United States
California Object
Lakewood — just look at the sky and there was the
object and I recorded it on December 1, 2017
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Disc
Malabar — At a bombfire with three other people, I always Skywatch. There was a full moon, and I saw an orange object, that was kind of large for a meteor. I yelled for everyone to look, as it headed toward earth, heading into atmosphere it slowed, fraught the atmosphere, moved right, then left, then backwards, all the while getting smaller.
It seemed to either flame out or reversed out of the atmosphere. It lasted about 1 minute and 50 seconds. We all were amazed, trying to understand the way it was moving when it finally disappeared I started to go online to see if there were any other sightings. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Light
Chicago — My Daughter while visiting the Shedd Aquarium at Chicago Illinois while snapping many photos of aquatic animal life on December 26, 2017, later showed me the photos and I found the following anomaly.
Within the attached photos it clearly shows a manifesting Alien Being with an Aura surrounding the being located behind her approx. 4-6 feet distance.
The photo appears to show its eyes and mouth.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Note: This may be some form of aquatic life.
Maine Light
Biddleford — I was walking my dog after getting home from work on January 1, 2018. and noticed what looked like a star.
After staring at it I noticed it was moving and there were no other stars in the sky. I asked my girlfriend to come out and when she looked she noticed it too and the movement it was making. Basic hovering but almost like it was struggling to stay up.
Thanks to MUFON
New York Object
Hartsdale – On Central Avenue I observed for 10 minutes an object that hovered from North Central Avenue.
It tracked all the way down North Central Avenue and emitted a bright light and then left on January 1, 2018.
Thanks to MUFON
Oklahoma Object
Observing the December 3rd, 2 017 supermoon I noticed object that was brighter than the moon at the 10 o’clock position.
Took photo and zoomed in as close as I could and noticed 5 diamond/star shaped lights in a perfect line but did not flicker like a star.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Light
Mt Vernon — This is was I saw between 11 PM and 12 AM last night on December 23, 2017.
I was wondering if anyone else saw it. I zoomed the photo and they look like this. I honestly thought I took a photo of one UFO, but there were four.
Note: The witness stated that four objects were seen. The photo only shows one. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Date of sighting: Dec 9, 2017, 10:35 AM Location of sighting: Mandurah, Australia This UFO was caught on security camera.
Thanks to Sighting News
Canada Light
I was smoking outside in the back of my house and noticed this orange ball kinda gliding just below the clouds it looked like can’t really judge the distance probably over 5 km. But noticed it like I said going across the sky then stopped. And it disappeared behind my garage roof and when I moved to see it again it was gone.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Dominican Republic Object
La Romana — December 15, 2017.. We sighted a bright object high in the sky at the height of clouds. It was hanging for about 1 hour, but we didn’t see the moment when it appeared and the moment when it disappeared. Looking through strong binoculars, it looked like a shiny ball. It was very bright on the side of the sun. Judging the large distance, it should be a very big ball, and judging on bright shining it should be metallic. We took a photo, but due to the large distance the photo shows just the bright spot. No sound was heard from that object.
Note: The object could have been a high altitude balloon, but this is just speculation and not 100% definitive. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK Disc
Nottingham — My daughter, who lives in Nottingham, was looking at the evening sky late August this year 2017, she just took the photo and didn’t notice the object at the time. Later when looking at it she noticed the object to the right of the photo. it is in the sky in the early evening. I don’t think it is a reflection of any lamp inside of the bedroom on the window pane. It is a large metallic looking ring emitting a lot of light from the top. it is quite bright.

Fourth time’s a charm: SpaceX’s secret “Zuma” mission finally got underway Sunday night as Elon Musk’s aerospace company completed its first mission of 2018.
Zuma is a Northrop Grumman Corporation-made spacecraft, and it was sent into low-Earth orbit, but that’s all SpaceX or the defense contractor has released about the mission, calling Zuma “restricted payload.” Zuma is the third classified mission SpaceX has performed for the U.S. government. (The first was to launch a spy satellite in May and the second was to launch the X-37B spy plane in September.)
A little after 8 p.m. Sunday, precisely as many Americans might have been sitting down to watch the Golden Globes, this rocket was taking off in Florida:
The Falcon 9 launched from the SLC-40 launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida, after being moved from its original launch site, Launchpad 39A, which is currently booked with the SpaceX Falcon Heavy, the rocket system that will test launch in late January. The first stage of the rocket separated from the second and headed back to Earth, while the second stage continued on to put the Zuma payload into orbit. The SpaceX webcast cut out video for this part of the mission.
A few minutes later the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket booster landed safely at LZ-1 near Cape Canaveral, as can be seen in this video from a camera mounted on the rocket:
“And the Falcon has landed,” said Brian Mahlstedt, a SpaceX software engineer who was hosting the Zuma webcast.
The rocket landing was the 21st by SpaceX. The first was on December 21, 2015, also at LZ-1. In addition to LZ-1, SpaceX has landed first-stage boosters on the drone shipsOf Course I Still Love You, in the Atlantic Ocean, and Just Read the Instructions, in the Pacific Ocean.
Proof of aliens? What is the Rendlesham Forest incident? UFO sighting in a Suffolk forest
Proof of aliens? What is the Rendlesham Forest incident? UFO sighting in a Suffolk forest
ALIEN encounters of signs of aliens are some of the most intriguing mysteries for human kind. Was proof of aliens found in the Rendlesham Forest incident in Suffolk? Local men claimed to have seen UFO sighting.
Alien encounters such as the Rendlesham Forest incident are often the subject of public intrigue.
This event, which occurred in 1980, is still one of the most compelling stories of a UFO sighting recorded in the UK, and it has been referred to as “Britain’s Roswell”.
It even caused the Ministry of Defence to issue a public statement to the people of Briton to assure them it was not a threat to national security.
Aliens: What is the Rendlesham Forest incident? UFO sighting in Suffolk
Proof of aliens? What is the Rendlesham Forest incident?
UFO sighting
The Rendlesham Forest incident took place over two nights in December 1980. On 26 December a patrol around RAF Woodbridge reported seeing lights, which appeared to land in the near by Rendlesham Forest.
They rushed to the site, thinking the lights might be a crashed human aircraft, however, they were shocked by what they found.
They claimed to have found a round, glowing metal object with coloured light that scared animals in a nearby farm.
Returning to the site in the morning all they found were a number of triangular impressions on the ground.

Alien: Was proof of aliens found in the Rendlesham Forest incident in Suffolk?
On December 28 deputy base commander Lt. Col. Charles Halt visited the area and took radiation readings. He and his party then claimed to see another flashing light, which hovered and beamed down a stream of light.
Was proof of aliens found in Rendlesham Forest incident in Suffolk? While some think this could be evidence of an extra terrestrial visit, most agree it is not conclusive.
Some believe it to be a hoax, while others claimed the object was a downed Soviet spy satellite.
A witness of the event, retired U.S. Airforce officer Steve Longero, told the Sun in December 2016: “I think it was something not from this world.”

He said of the object found in the woods: “From what I remember it was like aglow, it was really glowing like a reddish, greenish light. It was really glowing, like something was really hot and it was just glowing.”
He also recalled how the object vanished. He added: “As people were getting close to this thing it kind of came nearer to us and then it would go forward and then go back and all of a sudden it just disappeared, like something out of Star Trek, it was like warp speed and we were all ‘what was that?’”
You can camp in Rendelsham Forest, and the forest has a trial titled the UFO Trail.
Google Maps Street View footage recently revealed footage of a top secret base of a US Air Force airline known as JANET, which flies planes to Area 51 and is based in Las Vegas.
The incredible video was reportedly shot on New Year’s Eve, beginning by showing the blazing object travelling at high speed in the sky above a row of houses.
It speeds across the horizon before disappearing behind a cloud.
Wakefield residents James Javens, 22, and his friend Ryan Butterworth, 20, captured the light on film as they walked through Eastmoor.

MYSTERY: Two lads from Wakefield spotted the mysterious fireball on New Year's Eve
More than 1.5 million people have since seen the video, making waves after it was posted on YouTube.
"It was flying across the sky so fast but luckily we had a phone to hand and were able to catch it on film,” the pair told the Wakefield Express.
"The video has gone viral. We are hoping to find out from an expert what it is.
"It was an absolutely amazing sight. It was a big, bright green light, and it flew across the sky.

ILLUMINATING: Professor Brian Cox claimed it was a meteorite
“It was travelling really fast and for a really long time."
TV boffin professor Brian Cox, an esteemed physicist and astronomer, later tweeted: “Quite a few people saying they saw a meteor over the North of England this evening - anyone else?
“Sounds like a bright one."
And the UK Meteor Network seemed to confirm his suspicions, claiming they had received hundreds of similar reports of a meteor sighting from across the UK.
New Yorkers have reported seeing 85 UFOs over the city in two years including orange orbs, a cigar-shaped craft and fireballs of lights, researchers have revealed.
There have been a total of 27 sightings above the famous skyscrapers of Manhattan since 2016, according to the Washington-based National UFO Reporting Center.
Brookyln saw 24 over the same period while in Queens, there were 20 reports of unidentified objects including a 'group of about seven UFOs, with a leader to the side, and a cluster to its north,' in June.

In Queens, there were 20 reports of unidentified objects including a 'group of about seven UFOs, with a leader to the side, and a cluster to its north,' in June, according to the New York Post.
This compared to just eight strange such incidents in The Bronx and just six in Staten Island.
The Post reports that one report from Manhattan told of an object 'rotating like a drill as it was also moving off axis and in a line towards the east'.
While this was happening, the witness said, you could see 'four lights that would only be on one side and seen' after it fully rotated. The unidentified witness, who saw the object out of a gym window, said it was hundreds of feet long and included 'four other smaller craft appeared that were to me saucer or spherical that blipped in and out.'
Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said of the findings: 'It only takes one or two regular witnesses, UFO investigators, groups or promoters to highlight UFO activity in one particular area.
'Another area might have just as many UFO sightings, but if there are no active ufologists there and/or a local media that ignores such stories, then they will never get any attention.

'Internet reporting sites like the National UFO Reporting Centre make it easy to report sightings, but this is just raw data that needs to be processed and investigated to make any useful basis for analysis.
'When looking at this data you need to obtain detailed reports from witnesses who are reliable and credible.
'Even then expert witnesses, like pilots, can be mistaken and it is notoriously difficult to separate knowns (e.g. misidentified stars, aircraft, rockets etc) from unknowns.
'Large data bases tend to be riddled with a wide variety of errors due to these problems and only give an accurate guide to levels of UFO reporting rather than UFO activity.'
In February last year, it was revealed that more people were reporting sightings of spaceships and UFOs than ever before.
Exactly 104,947 UFO sightings had been reported since the first sign of aliens was spotted in 1905, according to data from the Center's data.
And since the 1990s, the number of other-worldly sightings had shot up from 10,000 to 45,000 a year.
The National UFO Reporting Centre, which is based in Washington, is a site dedicated to keeping track of UFO sightings from across the world.
Data from the site released last year showed that people living in the UK, the US and Australia were most likely to report seeing an alien spaceship, while countries such as Russia, China and Greenland rarely catch a glimpse of extraterrestrial activity.
