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

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

    Ghost rocket UFOs are 1st reported, February 26, 1946

     Ghost rocket UFOs are 1st reported, February 26, 1946
    Ghost rockets, rocket- or missile-shaped unidentified flying objects (UFOs), were first sighted on February 26, 1946, mostly in Sweden and nearby countries.

    More than 2000 sightings were recorded between May and December of that year, with an increased amount of sightings in mid-August 1946.

    The origin of these ghost rockets was never fully revealed. Some investigations attributed the sightings to meteor showers, making special note that the August peak coincided with such events. But most ghost rocket sightings did not occur during meteor shower activity and, moreover, displayed characteristics inconsistent with meteors, such as reported maneuverability.

    A 1946 Swedish newspaper photo of such sightings

    Other theories attributed the origin of the ghost rockets to a former German rocket facility at Peenemünde. Such theories claimed the rockets were long-range tests by the Russians of captured German V-1 or V-2 missiles, or perhaps early cruise missiles because of the ways they were sometimes seen to maneuver. 

    These missile theories prompted the Swedish military to investigate. Some investigators for the Swedish military apparently believed the objects could not be conventionally explained, and instead hypothesized an extraterrestrial origin.

    The missiles were often reported as having crashed into lakes, yet no missile fragments were found in lakes. For example, on July 19, 1946, a ghost rocket was reported as having crashed into Lake Kölmjärv in Sweden. Witnesses saw a gray, rocket-shaped object with wings crashing in the lake with a noise that suggested the object had exploded. However, a three-week military search conducted in intense secrecy, again turned up no evidence of a craft, only impact at the bottom of the lake.

    The Swedish Air Force officer who led the search, Karl-Gösta Bartoll (see photo of him on the search), reported back to the military that the rockets were most likely made of material that would disintegrate quickly in water. A craft built of such material, which would also have to be capable of traveling at top speeds while carrying progressive equipment for maneuverability, would be considered extremely advanced and expensive in terms of 1946 technology. 

    In a 1984 interview, Bartoll reiterated his material belief and said "what people saw were real, physical objects” in opposition to ideas that such sightings were delusions or sci-fi fodder. 

    While largely in Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Belgium, and Italy, all reported similar ghost rocket sightings in 1946. 

    The United States military was also involved in investigations. A US document declassified in 1997 states, "we are inclined not to discredit entirely this somewhat spectacular theory [extraterrestrial origins], meantime keeping an open mind on the subject."

    first sign of alien invasion could be otherworldly computer virus

    First Sign Of Alien Invasion Could Be Otherworldly Computer Virus

    INTERSTELLAR COMMUNICATION.

    IX.

    MESSAGE DECONTAMINATION IS IMPOSSIBLE

    You see that on your console, you start to worry.

    A recent paper by Michael Hippke and John G. Learned, submitted to arXiv.org on February 6, 2018, looks into the potential risk of messages received from extraterrestrial intelligence. Could such messages somehow infect our computers with alien viruses and cripple our technological infrastructure?

    Turns out the answer is a solid maybe.

    Their paper, which you can find over at arXiv.org (PDF is here), argues that any messages we receive from extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) will need to be handled with caution.  They’ll also likely require the use of computers to understand, and therefore could pose a very real risk of being contaminated with computer viruses, either intentionally or unintentionally.

    And once we’re contaminated, it’s difficult to say whether or not we could fix that problem.

    After all, it is cheaper for ETI to send a malicious message to eradicate humans compared to sending battleships.

    A Communications Disruption Could Mean Only One Thing…

    What are we to do, then? The paper first suggests that “complex messages would need to be destroyed after reception in the risk averse case.”

    But Hippke and Learned aren’t only concerned with complex messages. They go over a few types that could prove problematic:

    1. A message of cultural significance, or one that could hurt planetary morale. They use the example of an alien message that reads, “We will make your sun go supernova tomorrow.” They argue this could cause global panic, and they’re probably right. I imagine messages along the lines of “Your planet was just an experiment, and we’re about to run out of funding” would throw us into a long-term existential crisis, as well.
    2. A message, perhaps similar to the above, sent repeatedly and unable to be controlled
    3. A complex message that contains an actual computer virus

    They also consider the possibility of aliens sending messages in the form of learning AI. This, they argue, would likely require isolation — perhaps to only “a computer in a box on the moon,” they write — to contain the message and prevent the AI from spreading. Only then could it be translated or executed safely. Failure to do so could allow said alien AI to have free rein over the world, and who knows how that would end?

    Possibly with human extinction.

    It’s not all doom and gloom, though. The paper ends by stating that the risk of running into a malicious message from ETI is very low (but not zero), and that “the potential benefits from joining a galactic network might be considerable.” So, risk vs. reward.

    I guess the question is…

    Would You Open That Alien Email?

    Funny enough, back in 2015 scientists were worrying about exactly the opposite — that messages we send into space might accidentally infect alien technology. Would that, perhaps, be seen as an act of war?

    “Language can hide a lot of information,” Dr. Anders Sanberg said at the time, during a speech at the British Science Festival. “We’re worried about malware being sent to aliens.”

    That might be useful, though.

    In the event of an actual alien invasion or extraterrestrial malware, we could always pull an Independence Day and send them a copy of Windows 10.

    You hear that, ET? Turnabout is fair play.

    Does Puma Punku Feature The Ultimate Ancient Astronaut Evidence?

    Located just 45 miles west of La Paz high in the breathtaking Andes mountains lie the mysterious ruins of an archaeological site called Puma Punku.

    This ancient site is home to megalithic stones which many researchers say are among the largest on the planet. Some of the megaliths here measure up to 26 feet long and weigh more than 100 tons each.

    This incredible site was built thousands of years ago by an extremely advanced culture. Today, Puma Punku is considered a large temple complex or monument group that is part of the Tiwanaku Site near Tiwanaku, Bolivia.

    Tiwanaku is significant in Incan traditions because it is believed to be the site where the world was created. Puma Punku signifies “The Door of the Puma.”

    As noted by the Andean specialist, Binghamton University Anthropology professor W. H. Isbell, a radiocarbon date was obtained by Vranich from organic material from lowermost and oldest layer of mound-fill forming the Puma Punku. This layer was deposited during the first of three construction epochs and dates the initial construction of the Puma Punku at 1510 ±25 B.P.

    Puma Punku is so unique in the way that it was constructed and shaped and positioned, that it is the most intriguing ancient site on the planet. Mainstream scholars believe the blocks found at Puma Punku were formed by hand with primitive stone tools. But some researchers point to the intricate stonework as evidence of the use of advanced precision technology.

    How exactly could such primitive people, living thousands of years ago, have produced such flawless stonework? Is it possible that the ancient builders of Puma Punku have fabricated the megalithic stones with advanced technology? Precision tools that could have facilitated them to accomplish these marvels of engineering and construction, clean cuts, precise angles, would that be really possible without the aid of “modern” technology? Many people today find that quite unlikely.

    If you look at the stones carefully, you can see some intricate stonework, as though they used machine tools or even lasers. It’s incredible.

    At Puma Punku you will find these incredible stones with perfect right angles, and some stones have small drill holes which have been evenly spaced along this groove which makes you wonder whether or not it is possible that the ancient builders of Puma Punku used some sort of advanced machinery.

    Monolito by Diegoom Urbina on 500px

    A transportational and logistical nightmare

    After years of research, archaeologists have said the massive stones were hewn at quarries over 60 miles away and then rolled to Puma Punku on logs.

    However, what we seem to forget here and what nobody talks about is the fact that the archaeological site of Puma Punku is located at an altitude of 12,800 feet. This means that it is located above the natural tree line so this means that NO trees grew in that area which means that no trees were cut down in order to use wooden rollers.

    This brings us to the obvious question as to how did the ancient builders of Puma Punku transport huge blocks of stone to their destination? Sure, they could have brought logs from elsewhere, but that would have been a transportational nightmare at that time, and even a huge labor force would not have been enough for these massive stones to arrive at their destination.

    We simply have too many questions about the technology used, transportation, logistics, etc…, and it is hard to believe that all of this was achieved without the use of power tools and advanced forms of transportation.

    Moving these massive blocks of granite from their quarries and bringing them to Puma Punku would have required some type of advanced technology, means by which ancient cultures could have lifted these massive stones and placed them in their positions.

    Puma Punku is simply put, one of those places where, when you look at those incredible constructions, manipulated with that much perfection, your imagination just fires up, there are so many possibilities at this point, and conventional archaeological explanations just do not suffice.

    The right questions need to be asked, and there are so many mysteries that surround Puma Punku… from the materials used to aid them in the constructions… to the constructions methods and transportation of the blocks and the answer probably lies in front of us.

    Tiahuanaco, equally stunning and mystifying

    In 1549, while searching for the capital of the Inca Empire, Spanish conquistadors led by Pedro Cieza de León crossed into Bolivia and found the ruins of an archaeological site called Tiahuanaco. Less than a quarter mile northeast of Puma Punku, modern-day researchers believe Tiahuanaco was once the center of civilization with more than 50,000 inhabitants.

    Piedra de Puma Punku by Adrià Torres Capsada on 500px

    In fact, Tiahuanaco is probably the greatest American culture that many people haven’t heard of. It was one of the most important antecedents of the Inca and their history. The level of achievement in architecture, in political development, agriculture, industries was unlike anything found elsewhere in South America, and most scholars agree that Tiahuanaco was mysteriously abandoned around 1100 AD, for reasons we still do not know.

    However, numerous excavations revealed a great amount of information about Tiahuanaco. In the 1960s, the Bolivian government excavated and unearthed the Subterranean Temple at Tiahuanaco.

    Within the walls of the square sunken courtyard, researchers discovered hundreds of mysterious stone heads with a diverse range of features.

    Most scholars and authors agree that there are all the races of mankind represented at this wall, even elongated skulls, people wearing turbans, people with broad noses, people with thin noses, people with thick lips, people with thin lips, and some of the statues are particularly unusual because they do not seem to represent the local people.

    These mysterious places seem to represent every type and shape of human head existing on the planet.

    Tiahuanaco.jpg by Mauricio Araya on 500px

    Two of them, which are very intriguing, were created in white in color, and they look very much like grey alien heads, say Ufologists.

    Viracocha, the Andean Creator God

    A giant statue at the center of the sunken temple depicts the creator god, known as Viracocha. Curiously, Viracocha was depicted having many characteristics which are unlike those of the native population. This raises an interesting question; Why would the inhabitants of Tiahuanaco depict their most prominent god with features unlike their own?

    For example, Viracocha was depicted having a beard and a mustache, something that is a very unusual thing because American Indians do not have beards and mustaches. So, who was Viracocha, and is it possible that there is more to him than what we have been led to believe?

    Sumerian writing in America?

    One of the most fascinating archaeological artifacts ever discovered near Tiahuanaco is the famous Fuente Magna Bowl.

    The artifact is a ceramic bowl, and it has written on its surface Sumerian cuneiform and Proto-Sumerian hieroglyphic script. This is a huge problem for mainstream scholars as these two civilizations were never connected and are located on the opposite side of the world.

    In fact, these two ancient cultures were separated by more than 8.000 miles, and yet the Fuente Magna Bowl draws a direct connection between the ancient Sumerians and Tiahuanaco, and Puma Punku.

    Archaeologists find Ancient Egyptian Necropolis With 1,000 Statues and 40 Well-Preserved Sarcophagi

    Egyptian archaeologists have discovered an ancient necropolis near the city of Menia, south of Cairo.

    In the eight tombs of the funeral city, archaeologists have found more than a thousand statues and four dozen sarcophagi in pristine condition.

    The archaeological site is located six kilometers north of another archaeological site called Tuna al-Gabal. The excavation work is scheduled to last for 5 years, in an attempt to uncover all burials in the cemetery, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities.

    Antiquities Minister Khaled al-Anani said: “We will need at least five years to work on the necropolis. This is only the beginning of a new discovery.”

    For the moment, the archaeological mission has found a group of tombs and burials belonging to the priests of the ancient Egyptian god Thoth, the main deity of nome 15 (administrative division in ancient Egypt) whose capital was al-Ashmounein.

    One of the uncovered tombs belongs to a high priest of the god Thoth, Hersa-Esei.

    The tomb houses 13 burials in which archaeologists discovered a large number of shabti figures carved in earthenware.

    Minya is located about 250 kilometers south of the Egyptian capital Cairo.

    Experts also found a collection of 1,000 statuettes in very good condition, while the rest of the statuettes were found fragmented into smaller pieces. The researchers are collecting all their pieces for restoration.

    Archaeologists also came across four canopic jars made of alabaster with lids showing the faces of the four sons of God Horus.

    Archaeologists report that the jars are in a very good condition and still contain the mummified internal organs of the deceased. The jars are decorated with hieroglyphic texts that show the name and the different titles of its owner, the high priest ‘Djehuty-Irdy-e’, whose mummy was also found.

    Archaeologists note that the mummy of high priest ‘Djehuty-Irdy-e’ is decorated with a bronze necklace that represents the ancient Egyptian God Nut stretching his wings to protect the deceased according to the ancient Egyptian belief.

    The mummified remains are also decorated with a collection of precious pearls, as well as golden bronze leaves, two eyes carved in bronze and adorned with ivory and crystal pearls.

    Four amulets of semi-precious stones were also found on the mummy. It is also decorated with hieroglyphic texts, one of which is engraved with a phrase saying: “happy new year”.

    Archaeologists also came across 40 limestone sarcophagi of different shapes and sizes.

    Some of them were found having anthropoid tops decorated with the names and different titles of their owners.

    Another discovered family tomb houses a collection of gigantic sarcophagi of different shapes and sizes, with ushabti figures bearing the names of their owners who were priests of the gods during their lifetime.

    The Mystery Behind The “1890; A Giant In Japan” Footage

    One of the strangest videos showing alleged giants popped up on the internet 11 years ago when in 2007, several new agencies and YouTubers started talking about a video where a massive human is seen standing among the population, somewhere in Japan.

    The video claimed to have been filmed in 1890 in Japan quickly made headlines across the world as people started thinking about the possibility that there were giants among us.

    Many also started speaking about the Nephilim, the Bible, and legends that suggest how thousands of years ago Giants walked on Earth.

    The video raised numerous questions as people cared little for fact checks.

    Many claimed it was the ultimate evidence the Bible was right about the Nephilim, and how society in the 21st century was living a lie.

    Little did they know that the video was far from any actual evidence of Giants.

    Simply put, people love stories about giants, aliens and paranormal things that cannot be easily explained.

    Furthermore, by nature people are fascinated by things that we struggle to understand. It’s a mixture of curiosity and fascination.

    While there have been numerous reports and even discoveries of supposed massive skeletons, unlike those of ordinary humans, this video footage allegedly filmed in 1890 is not one of them.

    While it is surely intricately made and makes you think that someone really filmed a giant walking among people in Japan in 1890, the truth is the video is barely a decade old.

    Since the video—and images from the video—popped up on the internet, people started sharing it like crazy, without considering for a moment whether or not it was real.

    Dubbed as ‘the ultimate proof’ of Nephilim on Earth, the video spread uncontrollably.

    But, someone actually decided to dig deeper and find out more about the video and images.

    That, someone, was Dan Evon who researched the mystery Giant video for Snopes.

    As Evans wrote in his article for Snopes; “Some people have claimed that the footage comes from the early 1800s (decades before film was invented), while others say that it shows a giant sumo wrestler in a parade. Still, others maintain that the video really shows a Biblical Nephilim giant.”

    The truth is that the footage is in fact only 11 years old, and belongs to a scene from the 2007 movie Big Man Japan, a movie which features a wide range of bizarre creatures as Evans explains.

    “The “giant,” then, is the product of standard special-effects trickery, not hidden footage that proves beyond a doubt the existence of Nephilim.”

    There may be plenty of evidence of Giants existing on Earth, but this one surely isn’t one.

    China’s Hypersonic Plane Travels From Bejing to New York in a Few Hours

    Image result for China’s Hypersonic Plane Travels From Beijing to New York in a Few Hours 
    IN BRIEF
    In an effort to become the leading country in high-speed flight, China is now testing a hypersonic plane dubbed the I Plane. The aircraft produces less drag and high lift, and only needs a couple of hours to reach New York from Beijing.

    Global powers are pushing flight faster. With Japan looking to reintroduce supersonic speeds to aircraft, China has joined several U.S. companies in working on aircraft capable of achieving hypersonic speeds — and they’re relatively far along.

    Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing successfully tested their “I Plane” (named because it resembles a capital ‘I’ when viewed from the front) in a wind tunnel at speeds ranging from Mach 5 to Mach 7, or than 3,800 to 5,370 miles per hour. In their research, published in the journal Science China Physics, Mechanics & Astronomy, the team explains the hypersonic plane would only need a “couple of hours” to travel from Beijing to New York. For comparison, a commercial airline flight can take at least 14 hours.

    Testing has been successful so far, with the craft producing low drag and high lift. As reported by the South China Morning Post, the I Plane’s lift was roughly 25 percent of that of a Boeing 737; compared to the 737’s ability to carry up to 20 tonnes, or 200 passengers, an I Plane of the same size could carry 5 tonnes or 50 passengers.

    A researcher familiar with the project (who went unnamed) told the SCMP the I Plane could be used to transport bombs as well, saying it could be “something like a hypersonic heavy bomber;” incidentally, China also recently developed hypersonic missiles capable of traveling at speeds above 7,000 mph.

    Popular Science notes the I Plane’s development reflects China’s desire to be a leader in the hypersonic arms race. China’s next hypersonic project includes a wind tunnel that can produce speeds of up to Mach 36, making it more capable than the Mach 30 LENX-X in Buffalo, New York.

    U.S. Admiral Harry Harris warned congress in February about China delving into hypersonic technology, but it’s not as though the U.S. isn’t working on hypersonic projects of its own.

    Researchers from NASA discovered last year that boron nitride nanotubes could be a material that makes hypersonic air travel more feasible, and could allow NASA planes to cross the country in less than an hour. Furthermore, the U.S. Navy is testing hypersonic weapons that could hit anywhere on Earth within an hour, and Lockheed Martin hinted in January the SR-72 — the successor to the SR-71 Blackbird — is already in development, and that this hypersonic plane could be flying by 2030.

    It’ll be some time before hypersonic flight comes to commercialized aircraft, but the idea of going hypersonic is already being capitalized on. At this point, it comes to to who can use it more effectively first.

    Un OVNI s’est écrasé près de Salvador au Brésil

    En ce début d’année 2018, il est arrivé un événement inexplicable au Brésil. Après avoir entendu une forte explosion, des habitants ont découvert les débris d’un OVNI tombés du ciel.

    Le 20 février 2018, sur le territoire de la ville de Salvador, un objet mystérieux s’est écrasé sur le sol. L’OVNI a très probablement explosé avant l’accident.

    Les habitants ont été apeurés par ce bruit étrange. Après cela, ils ont observé un étrange objet brillant chuter à grande vitesse, brûlant l’herbe sèche environnante. Adini da Silva Almeida a réussi à trouver un morceau de l’OVNI dans les environs.

    Il a indiqué que ce morceau était en métal, qu’il mesurait à peine 15 centimètres de longueur et pesait presque trois livres.

    Les scientifiques croient qu’au Brésil, une météorite est tombée, ou qu’il s’agit simplement de déchets spatiaux. Les ufologues pensent, quant à eux, que les gens ont eu affaire à un vaisseau spatial construit par des extraterrestres.

    Pour connaître la véritable origine de cet OVNI, il faudrait que l’artefact soit transmis aux scientifiques qui pourraient ainsi l’analyser et faire toute la lumière sur cette affaire. Hélas, il est peu probable que les habitants prennent cette initiative.

    Michio Kaku reveals the important features the aliens would have when they contact humans

    Emma Joe

    Many people here on Earth are fascinated by aliens. Although the scientists have not been able to trace any extraterrestrial life yet, the search for the same has been intensified. Recently, theoretical physicist and Michio Kaku revealed some interesting facts about aliens in his new book “The Future of Humanity. In the book, Kaku wrote about aliens, their chance of making contact with humans and how they will react when they encounter the humans.

    In the book, Kaku also mentioned the looks of the aliens. According to Kaku, in future, human civilization will become more advanced and will develop new cutting-edge technologies that will lead them closer to aiming contact with alien life. Scientists have hypothesized about the fact that extraterrestrial life might be possible in far-off worlds much different from Earth.

    Like humans, they might be advancing their technology or skills to make contact with other worlds or to keep an eye on other worlds. Kaku consulted some exobiology experts and theorists specializing in hypothetical alien life forms present in distant worlds and came up with a list of necessary features that the aliens should possess to match up with the humans. According to Kaku, the aliens would have Stereo Vision, two eyes capable of focusing on a single object, just like humans. Stereo vision helps the hunters or predators to catch their prey. Kaku wrote, “In all likelihood, intelligent aliens in space will have descended from predators that hunted for their food.”

    Kaku further wrote that depicting aliens as hunters does not mean that they will be aggressive or attack us but we need to be cautious about that as their ancestors long ago might have been predators. Another must-have feature is the presence of thumbs in aliens, as per Kaku. Opposable thumbs or grasping appendages played a major role in the rise of primates. The thumbs would help them catch their prey and also create tools, thus strengthening their chances of making contact. The third important feature that alien should possess is the language. In order to hand down and accumulate essential information from generation to generation, some form of language is crucial,” Kaku wrote.

    Kaku also predicted that the ice-covered moons are the places more prone to hosting alien life because there the life would exist underwater. Although Kaku predicted that aliens need to have stereo vision, grasping thumps and some sort of language to have any contact with humans, he did not mention about the shape or size of the aliens or in what form they are present in the outside worlds.

    6 Things That Could Wipe Out the Human Race

    Posted by Anthony under Apocalyptic

    Humans have been on planet Earth for around 6 million years according to mainstream science. In that time Earth and the human race has endured many catastrophes, with the popular ones being ice ages, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and asteroids.

    But we are still here, for now.

    All Good Things…

    As we know all good things come to an end, and one day that quote will come to fruition as far as humans and our planet are concerned.

    But how would we all die, or worse, how would planet Earth be destroyed? I love apocalyptic fiction. So much so I am releasing an anthology of my short stories later this year. But before I do I wanted to write some articles about our demise, and some of the ways in which we could be destroyed. So read on for my take on what could, potentially wipe us all out.

    Alien Plague

    In 2013 a team of British researchers released a balloon into the stratosphere. It floated up to around 14-17 miles above the Earth, and collected samples as it flew. When it came back down to Earth, the researchers had a shock when they checked their samples. Microscopic algae called diatom were found, surprising the researchers. This meant that high above our heads potentially dangerous viruses could be lurking, ready to land and wipe us out.

    But where did they originally come from?

    Now Where’s that Bacteria From?

    Skip forward to 2017, and there have been claims by Russian Cosmonauts that when they swabbed the outside of the ISS, the swabs contained bacteria which they claim is alien bacteria. Whether it’s alien or human bacteria I don’t know, but it just goes to show that life could have been started by bacteria falling down to Earth billions of years ago. Something which some mainstream scientists think happened. It also means that alien bacteria could also drop down on to Earth, and the consequences to life on Earth could be catastrophic.

    Alien Invasion of the ‘Tiny’ Kind

    We have no idea what’s out there in the vastness of space. Alien races, weird and wonderful planets, teaming with what we’d call ‘exotic alien life.’ What about alien plagues? If something did hitch a ride on an asteroid or comet, and crashed on Earth, how would we deal with it? It could be something so different from our known viruses we have no idea how to deal with it. Can you imagine the consequences to human and other life on Earth for that matter?

    Not so Friendly Neighbours

    Maybe an alien race has read the messages we sent out into space on board the Pioneer spacecraft, or listened to the record Voyager’s 1and 2 had on board. They then decide our planet is perfect for themselves but don’t want an all-out alien invasion. One way in which to destroy the population of Earth would be Biological Warfare, and what better way to deliver that payload by sending an asteroid our way piggybacked with a concoction of deadly bacteria we couldn’t deal with.

    This leads nicely onto…

    Pandemic

    Have you seen the films ‘Last Man on Earth’ with Vincent Price, then Charlton Heston? How about ‘Planet of the Apes?’ There are many fictional films, books and TV shows out there that deal with pandemics, but could such a thing actually happen?

    Global Epidemic

    Throughout the ages pandemics or global epidemics have scythed through the human populous, decimating it as it did.

    The Black Death in the 14th century. Spanish Flu in the early 1900’s. How about HIV, Ebola, and Smallpox? They are just a few of the viruses that have managed to get a foothold on the planet, and killed off many millions of people, and animals in some cases. Not all are created by humans either. In the case of the Black Death, (Rats) HIV, (Monkeys) Ebola, (Bats) and others, they have come from animals, mutated and crossed over to humans. Some are still around today, like HIV, which is still causing the deaths of many millions of people as there’s no known cure.

    Could a Mad Scientist Really Create a Deadly Virus?

    It doesn’t have to be a mad scientist who creates something that can wipe out mankind. As I’ve mentioned above, some of the viruses have been caused by Mother Nature herself. Called Zoonoses, (infectious diseases of animals that can be transmitted to humans),

    It’s only a matter of time before the Armageddon virus jumps from an animal onto humans, and wipes us all out.

    Nanotechnology

    What is Nanotechnology?

     The following quote is from the “National Nanotechnology Initiative.” You can find more info HERE

    Nanotechnology is science, engineering, and technology conducted at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers.

    Nanoscience and nanotechnology are the study and application of extremely small things and can be used across all the other science fields, such as chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering.

    What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

    The year is 2066 and mankind is using nanotechnology in every aspect of their lives. Surgery is totally revolutionised by the advent of nanotech, and in particular nanobots. Most known diseases and viruses have been eradicated thanks in no small part to these ‘wonder bots’ as some people are calling them.

    Cancer, one big problem with us humans has been almost defeated thanks to the nanobots. They are injected into the patient then they set about finding the disease, then getting rid of it in a matter of days. Once they have completed their task they go inert and pass through the body naturally as they are so tiny no one knows they are there.

    But there’s a problem. In a rush to get the nanobots out of the lab and into everyday life, essential coding was rushed through. Instead of going inert and passing out of the body naturally, they stay there, and wait. Silently reproducing themselves until the hosts, the human patient can’t handle the sheer number of bots inside them. Its then they burst out, and start to ‘cleanse’ anything and everything in a ‘Grey Goo Revolution.’

    Sounds like Science Fiction doesn’t it? Well actually within a few decades we will have nanobots, and most probably using them in all sorts of things, surgery being one. Some scientists urge caution as they could potentially replicate causing our destruction, along with our planet, galaxy and the whole universe.

    This leads me nicely to my next disaster…

    Rise of the Machines

    Hands up if you HAVEN’T seen any of The Terminator films? I could probably count those that haven’t seen at least one of them films on one finger, as most are so good nearly everyone would have seen at least one.

    Artificial Intelligence, or A.I. for short, will be the biggest thing mankind has ever invented. Such is the development of A.I. it’s no longer ‘if’ we build an A.I. unit but rather ‘when.’ We are already using some form of A.I. in technology, like fridges, cookers, tablets and mobile phones. But what I am talking about is an android, robot or whatever you want to call it.

    Such is the rush to create little Tommy the Terminator that mistakes are bound to happen, and that could result in the A.I. turning against us.

    When They Speak People Listen

    When the likes of Professor Stephen Hawking’s and Elon Musk say A.I. could mean the end of the human race, it’s time to stand up and listen to what they have to say.

    “It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate,” the professor has said.

    “Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete, and would be superseded.”

    Elon Musk has warned that “A.I. is our biggest existential threat”.

    Now I’m all for technology making things easier for us lazy humans, but not at the expense of us lazy humans. And while I for one welcome the advent of A.I., we must tread carefully and make sure there are no mistakes or backdoors in which it can escape.

    First Thoughts

    Let’s put this into context for a minute. We create an A.I. unit and switch it on for the first time. What do you think it sees when it opens its eyes for the first time? It could see us humans as a problem to the planet and anything else living on it. We are warmongers, weak, and live in puny, fragile bodies that constantly need repairing. Oh and we grow old, something the A.I. won’t do.

    Friend or Foe?

    Is it going to want to ‘help’ mankind? Maybe it sees us as a threat, and wants to destroy us all. Seeing as computers double their intelligence every eighteen months or so, means that before long A.I. will be way smarter than us. We could program it to help us with all sorts of tasks, like creating nanobots if they haven’t been built. Now can you imagine if it did help us build these microscopic workers, then turned on us with them and itself. There’d be nowhere to run that’s for sure.

    Kill Switch

    So they said a ‘kill switch’ will be built in to the A.I. Oh yea? How long do you think it’ll take for it to find it? Then what do you think it will do? For one it’s going to disable it, and two, it could see that as a threat to itself, and kill us all. It won’t take any A.I. unit long to explore itself and its surroundings. It’s going to be curious just like us, and want to know about everything it sees, touches, and smells.

    A Passing Star or Planet

    According to mainstream science there are plenty of rogue stars and planets gallivanting around the universe after being kicked out of their own many millions of years ago. If one did enter our galaxy then I’m afraid it could leave its calling card on our galaxy, and probably our planet.

    Has this happened before?

    Yes it has. Around 4.5 billion years ago, a Mars sized object collided with the Earth. The debris that was flung out in to space was clumped together and ended up forming the moon we see in the night sky today. Astronomer’s called the object Theia, which in ancient times was the Titan Goddess of Sight.

    If the same thing happened today, nothing would be left after the collision, just dust, debris, fire and lava.

    A Passing Star

    Astronomers believe that around 70,000 years ago a red dwarf star did pass through our solar system. Named the Scholz Star (after the person who found the star) it’s thought that the star passed through the outer edges of the Oort cloud, a cloud of comets some 5 trillion miles away. The next time a star will pass ‘close’ to us will be a mere 240,000 to 470,000 years from now, by a ‘rogue star’ named HIP 85605. It’s thought it would skirt the outer reaches of The Oort Cloud, and not cause our planet any problems, not that we’d be here in 240,000 years anyway!

    For a star to give us any cause for alarm it would either have to go supernova as it passed through our galaxy, or pass through the inner parts of the solar system. According to the professionals, no star they know of is passing that close. I hope they’re right.

    On the left, an optical image from the Digitized Sky Survey shows Cygnus X-1, outlined in a red box. Cygnus X-1 is located near large active regions of star formation in the Milky Way, as seen in this image that spans some 700 light years across. An artist's illustration on the right depicts what astronomers think is happening within the Cygnus X-1 system. Cygnus X-1 is a so-called stellar-mass black hole, a class of black holes that comes from the collapse of a massive star. New studies with data from Chandra and several other telescopes have determined the black hole's spin, mass, and distance with unprecedented accuracy.

    Wandering Black Hole

    Could a black hole passing through our galaxy, destroy us? Well to answer that we need to know what a black hole is, and the main types of black hole.

    There are many types of black hole, but the three main types are:

    • Primordial: Thought to have formed soon after the big bang.
    • Stellar: Forms when a massive star collapses in on itself.
    • Supermassive: Scientists think these form around the same time as the galaxy they are living in.

    The most popular black hole is the stellar black hole. These are created when the centre of a massive star collapses in on itself and creates a supernova which blasts part of the star out into space.

    I Can See You

    If one did enter our galaxy would we know it was there? Well most probably yes because of the accretion disk. This is basically heated radioactive material dragged in by the black hole. Outer planets would be swallowed up or at the very least, thrown out of our galaxy. This would have a knock on effect, and the inner planets and even the suns orbits would be seriously compromised. The Oort cloud would be no more, but before it merged with the black hole it would probably shoot out comets towards Earth and the other planets, and we would be destroyed before the black hole got any closer.

    If we did survive that onslaught and the black hole continued through the galaxy, then we would again be pulverised by asteroids from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Devastating earthquakes and super volcanoes would lay waste to whatever was left of the Earth, and any remaining humans, animals, insects, fish and mammals would be on borrowed time. As the black hole drew closer it would finally tear our planet apart, with the remains dragged into the accretion disk where it would remain for millions of years.                                                               

    It’s the End Jim, But Not as we know it

    Mainstream science will tell you most, if not all of these scenarios are very unlikely to happen. Well my dad used to tell me nothings impossible, so for now all bets are on the table as far as these are concerned. I’m not going to lose any sleep over them though. Instead I’m going to write some more apocalyptic fiction, as researching for ‘6 Things That Could Destroy Earth or Wipe out the Human Race’ has given me some great ideas.

    Jupiter’s colorful bands or the gas giant’s huge Red Spot typically get all the attention but in a series of novel photos, NASA has finally captured a glimpse of a rare feature: Jupiter’s South Pole. We aren’t disappointed, that’s for sure!

    Gas marble

    When people think of Jupiter, they picture a colorful marble mainly painted in browns, reds, and off-whites. However, as images beamed back by the Juno spacecraft show, the gas giant is a lot more diverse when viewed from other angles. What immediately caught my eye were the beautiful blue swirling patterns, which resembles a mesmerizing iris.

    NASA’s Juno spacecraft took the color-enhanced time-lapse sequence of images during its eleventh close flyby of the gas giant planet on Feb. 7 between 7:21 a.m. and 8:01 a.m. PST.

    Although at first glance each picture in the series looks the same, there are slight differences between each image. The differences between the far left image and the far right image, for instance, are more immediately noticeable.

    NASA’s Juno spacecraft arrived at the Jupiter system on July 4, 2016. Its mission is to study the planet in detail to give scientists a better idea of the gas giant’s weather, magnetic environment and formation history.

    Juno is only the second long-term mission at Jupiter after the Galileo spacecraft, which orbited the planet from 1995 to 2003. The spacecraft’s two-year mission is scheduled to end in six months. NASA will either crash Juno into Jupiter or extend its mission with a new lease.

    A gigantic line stretching 13,000 miles across the planet has been spotted on Google Earth.

    The strange line resembles a con-trail emitted by an aeroplane but is much longer, reaching from Antarctica to the North Pole.

    It was spotted by the YouTube channel SecureTeam 10

    ‘This was not created by an airliner,’ it said. ‘This map here and at this distance only gives us images of the major cloud formations and weather around the Earth.

    ‘There are obviously hundreds of thousands of contrails by planes but we cannot see them.

    ‘Whatever created this cloud formation, if that’s what it is, would have to be massive.

    ‘Not only that, it would have the ability to go from Antarctica spanning 13,000 miles in a straight line all the way to the North Pole without stopping and without changing direction.

    ‘It would have to do this fast enough to leave this entire line of clouds in perfect condition like it moved over the Earth in a matter of minutes.’

    If the line is real, it may have been produced by a new type of jet capable of travelling at extreme speeds.

    However, there’s a chance it may have been produced by a glitch in Google Earth, which stitches together photos taken at different times together.

    Mysterieus spoor dat zich uitstrekt over de halve aardbol gespot op Google Earth. Wat is dit?

    Complottheoretici hebben op Google Earth een enorm spoor ontdekt, dat van de Zuidpool richting de Noordpool loopt. Dat meldt Metro.

    De UFO-jagers van SecureTeam10 hebben een video op YouTube gezet waarin het reusachtige spoor onder de loep wordt genomen.

    De vraag is nu hoe het spoor, dat zich uitstrekt over de halve aardbol, is ontstaan.

    Iets enorms

    Geschat wordt dat het spoor een lengte heeft van 19.000 tot 21.000 kilometer. “Dit kan niet zijn achtergelaten door een vliegtuig,” klinkt het.

    Tyler van SecureTeam10 merkt in de video op dat contrails in het niet vallen bij het spoor, toevoegende dat deze ‘wolkenformatie’ moet zijn gemaakt door iets enorms.

    “Dat niet alleen, het was in staat om in een rechte lijn van Antarctica naar de Noordpool te vliegen, zonder te stoppen of van richting te veranderen.”

    Niet bekend

    Of het om een vreemd gevormde wolk of een condensspoor van een nog onbekend object gaat, is niet bekend.

    Sommigen denken dat er bij Google iets is misgegaan bij de verwerking van de satellietbeelden.

    De Nederlandse lucht- en ruimtevaartdeskundige Coen Vermeeren zegt over het spoor: “Gezien de technologie die ‘wij’ hebben, is dit onmogelijk.”

    Ongeïdentificeerd object

    “Immers, de winden op diverse hoogten gaan alle kanten uit, dus een dergelijk spoor had, als het met een vliegtuig was gemaakt, al lang moeten zijn verspreid,” voegde hij toe.

    Vermeeren vermoedt dat het gaat om een ongeïdentificeerd object.

    AAN ELKAAR GEPLAKTE AARDE EN MYSTERIEUZE CONSTRUCTIES OP DE MAAN

    Een bijzonder ontdekking via Google Earth doet je geloven dat de aarde bestaat uit twee verschillende helften die aan elkaar geplakt lijken te zijn. 

    En de Chinezen blijven maar van alles fotograferen op de maan en daarbij komen bijzondere dingen tevoorschijn



    Ook Tyler vsn Secureteam ontsnapte klaarblijkelijk niet aan de griep en dus het was enige tijd stil, maar nu is hij weer terug met bijzondere dingen die hij meestal krijgt opgestuurd van zijn lezers. 

    Eén van de vreemde dingen die hij dit keer heeft, betreft onze aarde. Wanneer je volgens hem naar Google Earth gaat en je selecteert een bepaalde optie waarbij wolken boven het aardoppervlak zichtbaar worden, dan verschijnt er een bijzondere lijn op onze aardbol, zoals te zien op de volgende afbeelding.

    Je krijgt dan een beetje de indruk dat de aarde bestaat uit twee helften en dat iemand deze aan elkaar heeft geplakt. Hoe het kan, is een raadsel en ook dat deze lijn vanaf Antarctica over Zuid Amerika naar de Noordpool loopt.

    Vooralsnog is het een raadsel en ongetwijfeld goed nieuws voor mensen die denken dat de aarde plat is.

    Verder is er deze week een bijzonder opname boven water gekomen van een UFO boven Wit Rusland. Het is een soort gloeiend object, gefilmd vanuit een auto, dat laag en met hoge snelheid vliegt.

    Ook hier is nog geen verklaring voor. 
     
    Net zo min als er een verklaring is voor het volgende object. De opname is gemaakt door een man in Engeland die niets met UFO's heeft en zich afvraagt of hij misschien een vliegende vogel heeft gefotografeerd.

    Deze foto laat de klassieke zogenaamde retro UFO zien, ook wel de klassieke vliegende schotel genoemd.

    Wij hebben in een eerder artikel al beelden laten zien van een ruimteschip op de maan, gemaakt door één van de Chinese maanlanders, die ook nu een opmerkelijke foto heeft gemaakt van iets dat eigenlijk niets anders kan zijn dan een enorm ruimteschip op het maanoppervlak.

    Nu zijn er meer opnames waarvan een deel hieronder te zien is. De foto's laten een heel ander beeld zien van de maan dan de normale Zwitserse gatenkaas die wij gewend zijn te zien. Het is daar allesbehalve een kale boel, want er wordt door de Chinezen van alles gefotografeerd. Wat het allemaal precies is, weten wij uiteraard niet, maar dat er iets is, zoveel lijkt intussen wel duidelijk.

     AFP 
    Een impressie van planeet Proxima b.
     Even leek het erop dat er heel misschien leven mogelijk was op een planeet die rond de dichtstbijzijnde ster draait. Maar daar kan een streep door, zeggen Amerikaanse wetenschappers nu. De kans op leven op de planeet Proxima b is nihil.

    Proxima b draait rond de ster Proxima Centauri. Die staat op slechts vier lichtjaar van de aarde, maar is zo zwak en klein dat hij niet met het blote oog te zien is. 

    Op metingen zagen wetenschappers dat de ster op 24 maart vorig jaar een enorme zonnevlam produceerde, een magnetische uitbarsting. De explosie zorgde ervoor dat de ster in tien seconden tijd ongeveer duizend keer feller werd. De vlam zelf was tien keer zo groot als een grote vlam van onze zon. Daardoor werd de planeet blootgesteld aan 4000 keer meer straling dan de aarde te verduren krijgt van zonnevlammen. De planeet moet dus de volle laag hebben gekregen. “In de miljarden jaren dat de planeet bestaat, kunnen zulke vlammen de atmosfeer en oceanen hebben doen verdampen en het oppervlak hebben gesteriliseerd”, aldus de onderzoekers.

    De planeet Proxima b cirkelend rond Proxima Centauri.

    De planeet is een klein beetje groter dan de aarde en heeft ongeveer dezelfde samenstelling. Bovendien zat hij in de zogeheten leefbare zone rond de ster. Dat is een gebied rond waar misschien vloeibaar water op het oppervlak mogelijk mogelijk is. “Leefbaarheid draait om meer dan alleen op de juiste afstand van de ster staan”, concluderen de wetenschappers nu.

    De studie staat in het wetenschapsblad The Astrophysical Journal Letters.

    UFO ‘SHOCK proof’? Worrying images emerge of ‘US airforce alien DOGFIGHT’ above Area 51

    UFO HUNTERS have revealed shocking pictures of a “three plane dogfight” above Area 51 that shows a craft that is “too small to fit a person inside” tussling with other aircraft, it has been claimed.

    Tim Doyle and Tracey Su revealed the images that show two jets flying above the desert in Lincoln County, Nevada, while a third object looms in the sky.

    Mr Doyle said: “Tracy noticed a couple of jet fighters dog fighting, so she popped off a couple pictures.

    “It wasn’t until we got back home when we started reviewing the pictures that we noticed a third object.

    “What in the world is this? It looks like some kind of triangular unmanned drone. Because it’s definitely too small to have a person inside of it and after reviewing the pictures, it definitely looks as though the three crafts are interacting with each other.

    Tim Doyle and Tracey Su revealed the worrying images

    “It’s like a three plane dogfight.”

    The picture shows a small craft that appears to look completely different in shape to the other two in the image.

    The video explained that Time and Tracy “set up camp 12 miles from Area 51" in a desperate effort to uncover any mysterious secrets the base might have been hiding from the US public.

    Mr Doyle added: “We’ll spend the night and seek UFOs and see what else happens.

    “Welcome to Area 51, tonight we are UFO hunting in front of the most mysterious and secretive military installation in the entire world and we’ve got all the equipment set up tonight.

    "We are taking a look at Orion’s Belt live on the television and that is coming live through our video camera here.

    “We have a still camera setup where we are taking still shots repetitively to see if we see any blinking lights, maybe any dark objects, any lights out operations that might be going on.”

    Strange Trail in the sky extends entire length of the Earth

    Several days ago there was a really bizarre observation on Google Earth and Google Maps.

    A baffling line of thousands of miles that extended from the South Pole, Antarctica to the North Pole has not only spotted on Google Earth and Google Maps but may have been spotted from the International Space Station too.


    There is a lot of discussion going on what this huge line could be. The mysterious line seems to be a form of energy or a frequency that the Earth was detected from something big.

    Despite some people suggest that it is a processing glitch it clearly has a physical construction.

    While the online community still discusses about the strange phenomenon, a video has surfaced of a gigantic bizarre straight line soaring through the sky over the Netherlands.

    The witness who submitted the footage to MrMB333 writes:

    “Just to share a really strange cloud line in the sky above the Netherlands I’ve spotted on February 20, 2018.”

    “Some strange straight lined cloud formation, quite wide and reaching beyond the vanishing point of my eyes.”

    “The cloud line seems to be of a different kind of cloud material then the other clouds around and behind it.”

    It looks like the 'giant line' on Google earth WAS real after all, the question is; what is the origin of this phenomenon, where does this come from, taking into account the observation of the giant line over the Netherlands that the cloud material seems to be artificially created.

    what do aliens look like

    If aliens exist, here’s what they most likely look like

    Movies, TV shows, and video games have helped humanity paint a mental picture of what aliens might look like if we ever run into them, but most of the time those fictional depictions have little or no scientific backing whatsoever. Researchers searching for extraterrestrial life don’t necessarily know exactly what they’re looking for, but based on what we’ve learned about humanity’s rise there’s a handful of things nature tells us are required for advancement of a civilization. In the book “The Future of Humanity,” author Michio Kaku attempts to answer the incredibly difficult question of what aliens might look like, and this time it’s not just a guess.

    Kaku consulted with exobiology experts and theorists who specialize in hypothetical alien life forms which have developed on far-off worlds much different from Earth. Using that accumulated knowledge, Kaku came up with a very basic list of criteria that any intelligence alien race would need to have in order to reach a level similar to humanity.

    As the New York Post reports, the requirements that Kaku has dreamt up are essentially the same capabilities that scientists believe have allowed humans to progress in the way that we have:

    1. Stereo vision – Two eyes capable of focusing on a single object are something we typically associate with predators here on Earth. Prey animals often have one eye on either side of their head which allows them to spot threats and escape quickly, but that type of ocular setup is poor when it comes to hunting. Kaku suggests that most if not all “intelligent” alien races would have originated as hunters, rather than the hunted.
    2. Thumbs – Scientists have long believed that evolution which led to opposable thumbs was a huge factor in the rise of primates. A method of grasping objects allows for the making of tools which, it is thought, is one of the very earliest signs of intelligence as we know it. It makes sense that aliens would have followed a similar path.
    3. Language – This one is a bit tricky because it’s incredibly non-specific. The key here isn’t just the ability to communicate with each other in the moment — many animals have species-wide methods of vocal communication that could be considered language — but also to relay information and pass it down between generations. This allows the accumulation of knowledge over long periods of time and gives new members of a species the chance to expand and “stand on the shoulders” of those who came before them.

    These features obviously sound a lot like what we’re all born with, which makes perfect sense. However, within this very basic outline there’s plenty of room for variation. If aliens only need two eyes, a gripping appendage, and some kind of language in order to have caught up with humans, there’s really no telling what form their bodies have actually taken, especially on planets with chemical makeup far different from Earth.

    Neanderthal Art Dated to 65,000-years-ago in Spain

    New findings from cave sites in Spain suggest that Neanderthals had nothing to envy in respect to their cognitive skills when contrasted against their close cousins, fully modern humans. It is no longer easy to argue that our direct ancestors had the edge on Neanderthals when it came to displays of mental prowess with the confirmation of extremely ancient Neanderthal cave art.   

    Archaeological research across Europe has convincingly established that the ancestors of modern Europeans reached the continent around 45,000 years ago, this date not only matched fossils and tools found but also coincided with the earliest examples of cave art. Despite definitive evidence of a lengthy presence for Neanderthals across Europe cave art seemed to appear only after modern humans arrived.

    In newly released studies three cave sites, La Pasiega in north-eastern Spain, Maltravieso in western Spain and Ardales in southern Spain, have produced new evidence which pushes back the date for complex art to at least 65,000 years ago. These three sites offer a number of paintings in red or black, incorporating animals, dots and geometric patterns alongside hand stencils, hand prints and engraved iconography.

    Our dating results show that [some of] the cave art at these three sites in Spain is much older than previously thought,” says team member Alistair Pike from the University of Southampton. “With an age in excess of 64,000 years it predates the earliest traces of modern humans in Europe by more than 20,000 years.

    The logical conclusion is that Neanderthals are the most likely candidates for having painted the images, and although it remains possible that another sub-species was responsible for the work, such as archaic Homo sapiens, there is no clear evidence for their presence in Europe at the time.

    Dirk Hoffmann, a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology was able to date the art only due to the fact that the radioactive element uranium dissolves in water, but the element thorium doesn’t. When water soaks through soils into a cave uranium is carried with it and then gets trapped in mineral deposits, it then radioactively decays at a predictable rate becoming thorium. Measuring the relative amounts of uranium and thorium in minerals can reveal their ages and provide a minimum date for any paintings beneath these deposits.

     

    A drawing of the art shows animals and other symbols around the ladder shape. It’s stiil unclear if they date to the same time or were painted later.

    The three Spanish caves with paintings were found to have mineral crusts overlying the images that were at least 64,800 years old, although this is the minimum date for the art we must consider that it could be considerably older. This is without a doubt the oldest directly dates art in Europe and close in age to the oldest examples on the planet.

    Results of a second study were announced to the media at the same time, researchers had determined the age of an archaeological cache at Cueva de los Aviones, a coastal cave in southeastern Spain. Among the artefacts examined were perforated sea shells, red and yellow compounds for painting along with shell containers with mixed pigments. The same Uranium-Thorium dating method was applied and revealed an incredibly early date, 115,000 years before present day. Consider that the very oldest signs of such artefacts in Africa are no older than 92,000 years in age, perhaps considerably younger.

    One wrong move, and you might remove some pigments from the wall that were there for thousands and thousands of years,” says Hoffmann, the lead author of both studies. “There’s this overwhelming feeling you get when you first get in.

    With the revelation that both Neanderthals and modern humans had an equal ability to produce rock art, as well as other discoveries showing near equality in tool use, ingenuity, ritual behaviour and genes associated with speech, some researchers are calling into question whether Neanderthals were truly a distinct species. There has long been a divide over whether Neanderthals might not properly be considered a sub-species of Homo sapiens and this new evidence supports the argument that they were an isolated subgroup of our own species. We certainly seemed to have interbred successfully with them which traditionally confirms membership of a single species.

    A worker takes measurements of the stone rings inside Bruniquel Cave.

    The new studies build on evidence for complex ritual artistic creations among Neanderthals previously highlighted by the discovery of a 176,000-year-old circle created from broken stalagmites deep within the Bruniquel Cave, located in France. Most scientists had already accepted that the Bruniquel Cave stone circles had been composed by local Neanderthal populations.

    According to our new data Neanderthals and modern humans shared symbolic thinking and must have been cognitively indistinguishable”, said Joao Zilhao of the Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies in Barcelona, and who was involved in both studies. “On our search for the origins of language and advanced human cognition we must therefore look much farther back in time, more than half a million years ago, to the common ancestor of Neanderthals and modern humans.

    What are star trails, and how can I capture them?

    When a camera captures a star’s movement across the sky, it’s called a star trail. An astrophotographer explains how he does it.

    Star trails over GMT summit by Yuri Beletsky Nightscapes.

    Star trails over the planned site of the Giant Magellan Telescope in the Atacama Desert in Chile. Image via Yuri Beletsky Nightscapes.

    Star trails are the continuous paths created by stars, produced during long-exposure photographs, as shown on this page. In other words, the camera doesn’t track along with the stars’ apparent motion as night passes. Instead, the camera stays fixed, while, as the hours pass, the stars move. The resulting photos show the nightly movement of stars on the sky’s dome.

    Star trails reflect Earth’s rotation, or spin, on its axis. The Earth rotates full circle relative to the backdrop stars in a period of about 23 hours and 56 minutes. So, as seen from Earth, all the stars go full circle and return to the same place in sky after this period of time, which astronomers call a sidereal (stellar) day.

    Star trails and meteor

    View larger. | Star trails (plus meteor) photo taken by Guy Livesay. Thank you, Guy! If you aim your camera northward in a long-exposure photo, the star trails will be seen to track around the north celestial pole. In fact, the stars move counter-clockwise around the sky’s north pole in the course of every night.

    What this means is that, if you’re standing out under the stars, you see them move across the sky as night passes. Stars rise in the east, arc across the sky and set in the west, just as the sun does.

    Stars near the celestial poles produce the smallest circles while those near the celestial equator produce the largest. The stars – like the sun during the daytime – move from east to west across the sky each and every night. Each and every star moves 15 degrees westward in one hour.

    Star trails are really arcs, or partial circles, whose ever-circling motions forever tabulate the great passage of time.

    Sometimes you can get cool non-star effects into your photo, as Michael A. Rosinski did in this August 2014 photo.

    Sometimes you can get cool non-star effects into your shot, as Michael A. Rosinski did in this photo.

    Ken Christison captured these glorious around Polaris, the North Star, on February 15, 2013.  He wrote,

    Ken Christison captured these glorious star trails around Polaris, the North Star. He wrote, “For the most common and often the most spectacular star trails, you want to locate Polaris and compose the image so it is centered horizontally and hopefully you can have a bit of foreground for reference.”

    EarthSky Facebook friend Ken Christison has some wonderful photos of star trails. He said the equipment needed for making startrails is pretty simple:

    First, a camera that allows manual settings so you can set your f/stop and shutter speeds, as well as ISO.

    Next, a wide angle lens, the wider the better.

    A good steady tripod is a must.

    Some cameras will have a built in intervalometer which can be set to shoot the desirable number of frames. In some cases the intervalometer has a bit of lag between shots, which is the reason I use a separate, remote attached to the camera that holds the shutter down and when the camera is set in continuous shooting mode will shoot 100 frames in succession with very little gap.

    The remote I use is a simple one that can be found on eBay and uses a couple AAA batteries that last quite a while. I just use the remote controller attached to the 10 pin connector. There is no need to use the wireless receiver in this case.

    I use a shutter speed of 30 seconds, ISO of 400 to 800, and with my 14-24mm lens at 14mm, shoot it wide open at f/2.8.

    Next, he said, you’re ready to capture your star trail:

    Make sure the camera is level, and after focusing on a star, make sure the autofocus is turned off. Then, using the settings mentioned above, click the shutter and stay around long enough to know that the shutter is actually actuating. I normally go back in the house, set the timer on our kitchen stove for 45 minutes, and do other things while the camera does its work.

    When the timer sounds, go back out and reset the remote by turning it off, waiting for the shutter to close, then reset quickly.

    Finally, you’ll want to process your photo. Ken said:

    This is one of the most important elements in making star trail images. The program I use is free, works well and is simple to use: http://www.startrails.de/html/software.html.

    One other program that I have heard works well and is also free is StarStax: http://www.markus-enzweiler.de/software/software.html.
