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.

    Do 12,000-Year-Old Texts Hint An Atomic Bomb Exploded On Earth Destroying Civilization?

    Does this 12,000-Year-Old Text Reveal An Atomic Bomb Exploded on Earth In The Distant Past?

    More than 12,000 years ago, an incredible event left a mark in the ancient Hindu civilization.

    Countless ancient texts describe fascinating accounts that many authors believed, occurred thousands of years ago on Earth. While many ancient civilizations across the globe have left a mark in history with countless ancient scripts, monuments, and objects that force us to reevaluate what we know about history, many of these accounts are perceived with a notion of disbelief by mainstream scholars. Some call these accounts as mythology, some refer to it as folklore, but the truth is that there are countless ancient texts that indicate how ancient civilizations around the globe experienced incredible things, and they made sure to document them as well as they could.

    Controversial as it may be, many people around the world believe there is a high chance that in the distant past, tens of thousands of years ago, mankind was visited by beings, not of Earth. Many people still believe we are being visited even today, and there is ample evidence that suggests we are continuously visited by civilizations, not from Earth. Today, evidence of visitations can be found in countless images, videos, and recordings made available to the public. There are countless videos and images of alleged UFO sightings. Some of them may not be real, but some of them could very well be the real deal.

    However, how would ancient mankind, thousands of years ago document what they had seen? Imagine living 10,000 years ago somewhere in India, and you look up to the sky and see what is today referred to as a UFO. How would you best document that experience?

    Ancient civilizations across the world resorted to rock artpetroglyphsgeoglyphspottery art, and even in writing. From the Gods who came down from heaven, mentioned in numerous ancient cultures across the globe, to incredible flying ‘discs’ mentioned by the ancient Egyptians thousands of years ago, evidence that suggests we have been visited by ancient aliens can be found all around us.

    Possible written evidence of ancient alien contact and advanced technology existing on Earth thousands of years ago can perhaps be found if we take a look at the Mahabharata and the Ramayana.

    These ancient texts are believed to document incredible technologies, and stories of what many believe is evidence of flesh and blood aliens among us.

    The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being the Ramayana.

    It consists of 100,000 verses divided into 18 parts or books that are equivalent to eight times the Iliad and Odyssey combined.

    These ancient texts are more than a historical narration.

    It is a combination of facts, legends stories, and myths.

    A vast collection of didactic discourses written in a beautiful language, nurturing all Hindu mythology and creating one of the major world religions: Hinduism.

    Among those historical texts, we see a story of a devastating event that occurred thousands of years ago. This event, incomparable to any other historic even in ancient history, sounds very familiar to events that rocked modern history: The use of atomic bombs.

    Historian Kisari Mohan Ganguli, argues that the Mahabharataand the Ramayana are full of descriptions of large nuclearholocausts that are apparently of incredibly higher proportions than those at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

    Curiously, when a student asked Dr. Oppenheimer if the first nuclear device that went off was the one at Alamogordo. during the Manhattan Project, he responded… Well … yes. In modern times, yes, of course.

    So, what does that ancient text say? And how can you be sure it actually describes a nuclear event, unfolding on Earth thousands of years ago?

    The ancient Hindu text, the Mahabharata:

    “Gurkha, flying a swift and powerful Vimana,
    hurled a single projectile
    charged with the power of the Universe.

    An incandescent column of smoke and flame,
    as bright as ten thousand suns,
    rose with all its splendor.

    It was an unknown weapon,
    an iron thunderbolt,
    a gigantic messenger of death,
    which reduced to ashes
    the entire race of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas.

    The corpses were so burned
    as to be unrecognizable.

    Hair and nails fell out;
    Pottery broke without apparent cause,
    and the birds turned white.

    …After a few hours
    all foodstuffs were infected…
    …to escape from this fire
    the soldiers threw themselves in streams
    to wash themselves and their equipment.”

     A second passage:

    Dense arrows of flame,
    like a great shower,
    issued forth upon creation,
    encompassing the enemy.
    A thick gloom swiftly settled upon the Pandava hosts.
    All points of the compass were lost in darkness.
    Fierce wind began to blow
    Clouds roared upward,
    showering dust and gravel.

    Birds croaked madly…
    the very elements seemed disturbed.
    The sun seemed to waver in the heavens
    The earth shook,
    scorched by the terrible violent heat of this weapon.

    Elephants burst into flame
    and ran to and fro in a frenzy…
    over a vast area,
    other animals crumpled to the ground and died.
    From all points of the compass,
    the arrows of flame rained continuously and fiercely.

    — The Mahabharata

    The above text describes a violent and terrible event, one that many authors argue, can only be compared to a nuclear bomb detonating on Earth.

    However, there are many other references in the Ramayana which seem to be very similar to those described in the above text.

    But is there evidence, other than the texts supporting the theory that a nuclear device detonated on Earth thousands of years ago?

    According to ancient astronaut theorists, there is.

    The evidence, note ancient astronaut theorists, was found in 1992, when researchers discovered in Rajasthan, 16 kilometers west of Jodhpur, a layer of radioactive ash, covering an area of about eight square kilometers.

    The radiation was allegedly so intense that it still contaminates the area today.

    The ancient archaeological sites of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro are treated as another important piece of evidence- There, experts discovered skeletons scattered throughout the area almost as if a sudden, extremely destructive event occurred there, devastating entire cities.

    (It was a weapon) so powerful
    that it could destroy the earth in an instant–
    A great soaring sound in smoke and flames–
    And on it sits death…

    The Ramayana

    So what really happened thousands of years ago? What did ancient man document in these ancient texts? Is it really possible that a device similar to an atomic bomb exploded on Earth, some 12,000 years ago?

    Do the Mahabharata and the Ramayana really describe nuclear weapons? If so where did these weapons come from? The Gods?

    If an atomic bomb really went off in the past, was a crater left behind? Ancient Astronaut theorists say yes, and point to a crater with 2154 meters in diameter, located 400 kilometers from Mumbai.

    The date the crater was created, according to experts, ranges from 12,000 to 50,000 years ago.

    Scientists Suggest The Moon Was Created 1,000 Years Before Our Planet, And It Formed Inside Earth

    Not only do researchers suggest the moon formed before the Earth, but they also indicate how the moon formed ‘inside’ a sort of vaporized Earth at temperatures of 2,200 ° C to 3,300 ° C and pressures of tens of atmospheres.

    The Moon formed within a cloud of vaporized rock, and perhaps it came into existence before our own planet suggests a new scientific theory.

    Most scientists believe that the Moon originated as a result of the impact of a Mars-sized body called Theia against Earth, some 4.5 billion years ago.

    The violent clash threw rocks and molten metals into the orbit of our planet that ended up merging with each other, eventually forming Earth’s eternal companion we see in the sky.

    However, a new study led by the University of California Davis and the Harvard University tells a different story than we have heard in the last few decades; The Moon may have formed before our planet, radically changing everything we know about our satellite and planet.

    “The new work explains features of the moon that are hard to resolve with current ideas,’ said Sarah Stewart, a professor at the University of California Davis.

    “The moon is chemically almost the same as the Earth, but with some differences,” she said. “This is the first model that can match the pattern of the moon’s composition.”

    Researchers suggest how Earth’s satellite was formed before, and at much higher temperatures, than the formation of our planet.

    The new explanation, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, recognizes episodes of the collision, but not in the way that was counted so far.

    Meet Synestia, a new theory of formation

    (Sarah Stewart/UC Davis based on NASA rendering)

    According to the new version, the Moon arose inside the Earth, when our planet was inside a “synestia,” a huge, spinning, doughnut-shaped mass of hot, vaporized rock.

    It is a new type of planetary object, recently proposed by the same authors, which is also formed by the brutal clash of other large bodies.

    Its name derives from «syn» together, and «Hestia» the Greek goddess of architecture.

    The authors of the new study believe that these cosmic donuts were gigantic, up to ten times the size of Earth, but probably did not last long, only around hundreds of years.

    They shrink rapidly as they radiate heat, which causes the rock vapor to condense into liquid and eventually collapse into a molten planet.

    “Our model starts with a collision that forms a synestia,” explains Simon Lock, a Harvard researcher.

    “The Moon was formed inside the vaporized Earth at temperatures of 2,200 ° C to 3,300 ° C and pressures of tens of atmospheres,” he concludes.

    Mr. Lock indicates how isotope tests have revealed a fingerprint which undoubtedly proves that our planet and its faithful companion, the moon, are nearly identical.

    Despite this fact, studies have proven that our moon has far less volatile elements like potassium, sodium, and copper, which are relatively common on Earth.

    “There hasn’t been a good answer for this,” Mr. Lock said.

    “People have proposed several explanations for how the moon could have wound up with fewer volatiles, but no one has been able to quantitatively match the moon’s composition.”

    As explained in the new synestia theory, cosmic bodies are created within a so-called ‘seed,’ a relatively small amount of liquid rock located in the center of the swirling cloud of super-hot matter.

    As the material cools over time, the vaporized rock turns into a liquid.

    Eventually, the molten rock falls down throughout the cloud and most of it gathers around the seed to form a plane.

    Scientists suggest that as our planet was formed, some of the rock-rain condensed at the surface of the Synestia, and rained down onto the proto-moon, while the Earth synestia gradually shrank.

    The moon was created before, and at much higher temperatures.

    Scientists say that apart from this difference, the celestial bodies are nearly identical.

    According to the new theory, the moon may have formed around 1,000 Years before our planet as it emerged from the synestia much faster.

    Mr. Lock explained how “the rate of rainfall is about ten times that of a hurricane on Earth.”

    “Over time, the whole structure shrinks, and the moon emerges from the vapor. Eventually, the whole synestia condenses and what’s left is a ball of spinning liquid rock that eventually forms the Earth as we know it today,” he added.

    And despite the fact that scientists came up with a relatively solid theory, there’s still some work to do.

    “We’ve done calculations of each of the processes that go into forming the moon and show that the model could work, but there are various aspects of our theory that will need more interrogation. For example, when the moon is in this vapor, what does it do to that vapor? How does it perturb it? How does the vapor flow past the moon? These are all things we need to go back and examine in more detail.”

    The research has been published in the Journal of GeophysicalResearch.

    Moon formed when small planet CRASHED head on with Earth creating ‘dust doughnut’

    THE Moon was formed when a planet in its infancy crashed into Earth which resulted in a ‘dust doughnut’ around our planet that would go on to become the lunar satellite.

    Moon formed when small planet CRASHED head on with Earth creating ‘dust doughnut’

    Experts had previously believed the Moon was formed when a Mars-sized infant planet – known as Theia – hit Earth with a glancing blow, striking at a 45 degree angle some 4.5 billion years ago.

    As a result, chunks of Theia and Earth collected in Earth’s orbit to eventually form the Moon.

    But experts from Harvard University, the University of Bristol and University of California now believe the chance the collision actually happened are virtually impossible.

    New research suggests Earth did hit another small planet some 4.5 billion years ago, but the collision was head on.

    The moon as it is today

    The impact was so intense that it vaporised the smaller planet, creating a ring of dust – called a synestia – around Earth.

    Chunks of molten rock from Earth joined the synestia, which allowed the Moon to form.

    In astronomical terms, synestias are extremely brief, only lasting for a couple hundred years, before they shrink rapidly, causing rock vapour to condense into liquid, which ultimately becomes the core of a planet, or in this case the Moon.

    According to experts in the study, this would explain why the Moon has a different chemical composition from Earth as the majority of it is formed from another planet.

    Sarah Stewart, professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at University of California, said: "The Moon is chemically almost the same as the Earth, but with some differences.

    "This is the first model that can match the pattern of the Moon's composition."

    Simon Lock, graduate student at Harvard and visiting student at UC Davis who first developed the idea of synestias, said: "Our model starts with a collision that forms a synestia.

    "The Moon forms inside the vaporized Earth at temperatures of four to six thousand degrees Fahrenheit and pressures of tens of atmospheres."

    Unprecedented: 7,000-Year-Old Submerged Archaeological Site Found Off The Coast Of Florida

    “This will forever transform the way we approach offshore archaeology.”

    An ancestral burial site belonging to native America culture has been found under the ocean near Key Manasota (Manasota Key Offshore, MKO), on the west coast of the Florida peninsula, local secretary of state Ken Detzner recently announced.

    The research carried out so far shows that during the Early Archaic Period, when the sea level was much lower than at present, the area where the Cay is located was not submerged and there was a small freshwater lake where the ancient Floridians buried their deceased.

    The site near the community of Venice was first discovered by an amateur diver in June 2016, who reported the find to the Archaeological Research Office (BAR) pointing towards the existence of possible human remains in the area.

    As it is illegal to excavate any site where there are burials, underwater archaeologists had to use other techniques and tools. Experts used sonar and magnetometers for their research and, after a year and a half, they are finally able to claim that the area, with less than an acre of extension (around of 4 thousand square meters), was firm land not covered by the sea during the Early Archaic Period.

    Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner said in a statement that the archaeological site called MKO is located on the continental shelf, off the west coast of the state, in what was once a freshwater lake, when sea levers where much lower than at present.

    As the sea level rose, that lake was submerged by the waters of the Gulf of Mexico and covered by material known as “peat.” This is a brown material consisting of partly decomposed vegetable matter forming a deposit on acidic, boggy, ground; This peat remained intact in the seabed, which helped preserve the ancient remains.

    Underwater archaeologists mapped the entire site.

    According to Detzner, BAR archaeologists have done “an incredible work of documentation and research that can help understand the native peoples better.”

    The Secretary of State stressed that “out of respect for the individuals buried there and their possible alive descendants,” divers and other persons are prohibited from accessing the site, already protected by the laws of Florida and controlled by representatives of the forces of order that perform frequent patrols.

    Timothy Parsons, director of the Historical Resources Division of the State Department, said that the MKO deposit is “a revelation for the world of archeology.”

    Ryan Duggins, supervisor of underwater archeology at the BAR, considered “inspiring” the fact that found a submerged field under the Gulf of Mexico “so well preserved.”

    “This will forever change the way we approach offshore archaeology.”

    “We now know that this type of site exists on the continental shelf,” said Duggins.

    On behalf of the Seminole people, Paul Backhouse, head of tribal historical conservation, expressed his satisfaction at being able to elaborate a plan with other institutions that will “allow the ancestors to continue resting in peace without human interference for the next 7 thousand years.”

    “We are truly humbled by this experience,” Duggins explained in a statement.

    “It is important to remember that this is a burial site and must be treated with the utmost respect.”

    Als je in een zwart gat springt kun je eeuwig blijven leven. Deze studie laat zien waar je mogelijk uitkomt

    Als je in een zwart gat springt zul je niet aan stukken worden gescheurd, maar kom je in een vreemde realiteit terecht. Dat suggereert althans een nieuwe studie.

    Zwarte gaten zouden je verleden uitwissen en je naar een parallel universum sturen met een oneindig aantal mogelijke toekomsten.

    Als gevolg daarvan zou je eeuwig kunnen leven, zo claimen onderzoekers.

    Ander universum

    In ons universum is er vanwege de natuurkundige wetten maar één toekomst mogelijk.

    Wiskundige Peter Hintz van de Universiteit van Californië – Berkeley kwam tot de ontdekking dat in zogeheten Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter-zwarte gaten andere wetten lijken te gelden.

    Als je in zulke zwarte gaten springt, kun je dat mogelijk navertellen. Als je namelijk de singulariteit weet te omzeilen kun je in een ander universum terechtkomen.

    Tegelijkertijd

    Wat er vervolgens gebeurt is niet bekend, omdat de relatie tussen oorzaak en gevolg in een dergelijk universum niet bestaat. Alles wat is, was en zal zijn is tegelijkertijd mogelijk.

    Professor Hintz bestudeerde een specifiek soort niet-roterend zwart gat, dat een zogeheten Cauchy-horizon bevat.

    Die Cauchy-horizon zorgt ervoor dat het verleden niet langer de toekomst bepaalt. Natuurkundigen hebben altijd gezegd dat deze horizon je zou vernietigen.

    Uitzondering

    Uit de berekeningen van dr. Hintz blijkt dat Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter-zwarte gaten een uitzondering op de regel vormen. Hier zouden ruimtereizigers ongedeerd doorheen moeten kunnen gaan.

    Het onderzoek is gepubliceerd in het tijdschrift Physical Review Letters.

    Unusual Heat Anomaly Detected In The Gulf Of Mexico

    An unusual observation has been noticed in the Gulf of Mexico as a persistent heat anomaly continues to appear on multiple instruments and weather maps.


    Is an underwater volcano starting to erupt or is a hydro thermal vent possibly? The last reading was 133 degrees!

    One of the largest underwater volcanoes, a so-called asphalt volcano, resides in the Gulf of Mexico and is discovered in 2003 by a research expedition to the Gulf of Mexico.

    But they not only discovered the underwater volcano, also they discovered alongside the asphalt were areas soaked with petroleum and methane hydrate, also spewed from the volcano.

    Is it possible that the strange heat anomaly comes from this huge underwater volcano and could it be a sign of an underwater eruption or a sign that the volcano has come back to life?

    STASI: Don’t worry, chances of an alien cyber-attack are much lower than total human annihilation

    Not Released (NR)

    If aliens wanted to attack us, they don't need to hack our computers, they'd just bio-germ us into non-existence.

     (STOCKSNAPPER/GETTY IMAGES/ISTOCKPHOTO)

    Cyber-attack anyone? Never mind the Russians — what about the Martians?

    Two astrophysicists, whose heads are more in the clouds than in outer space, have just published a research paper proposing that aliens could/might cyber hack attack the Earth causing chaos, mass destruction or maybe universal (like the whole universe) good times. And it's getting a lot of international, and perhaps even inter-species, attention.

    The non-peer reviewed paper, (in other words not written for other astrophysicists to evaluate it), by Michael Hippke of the Sonneberg Observatory in Germany and John Learned, of the University of Hawaii, says this cyber attack could come from something as simple as a friendly message about possible communication between us and E.T.

    Or as they put it: "A complex message from space may require the use of computers to display, analyze and understand. Such a message cannot be decontaminated with certainty, and technical risks remain which can pose an existential threat. Complex messages would need to be destroyed in the risk averse case."

    STASI: Alien invasion would play out like 'Independence Day'

    Not so fast, brother. I asked two people who know more about this stuff, than, well, anybody if that makes any sense.

    Hell, they said, if aliens wanted to attack us, they don't need to hack our computers, they'd just bio-germ us into non-existence. So rest assured, there is no risk, repeat no risk of E.T.s hacking your Instagram account and posting naked pictures of themselves.

    Why would aliens from deep space bother hacking our Facebook pages when they can just steal our DNA?

    (CHRIS CLOR/GETTY IMAGES/BLEND IMAGES)

    Retired Army Col. John Alexander, a former Green Beret and founder of the Advanced Theoretical Physics Group, who ran the military's psychokinesis group (bending metal with the mind) and author of the book UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies, and Realities, told me, "While hypothetically possible, the probability is so remote as to not be worth any concern, let alone time and effort in countering it." Ouch.

    "E.T. alien cyber-attacks don't make sense on any level. They don't need to sow discord as we already have that on our own. If they were to invade, a biological attack makes far more sense. If E.T. understands the physics of getting to Earth, they also understand biology. Therefore, if control or depopulation is the goal, bio-warfare is far easier than mano-a-mano ala Hollywood. Why risk a fight when they could wipe us out without loss of any of their lives. They could also repopulate using cloning technology and just raise a docile herd."

    SpaceX rocket launch sparks confusion, rumors of alien takeover

    Dr. Alexander believes the real threat comes more from AI that we create ourselves than from a cyber hack attack from outer space.

    Even Bill Birnes, who starred in History Channel's "UFO Hunters," and is the author of the upcoming, "UFOs and The White House: What did Our Presidents Know and When did They Know It?" said, "Art from as far back as the Middle Ages, notations in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, and stories from other cultures all point to the presence of some types of anomalous craft in the skies. Even Ezekiel is specific about what is flying above him. If aliens wanted to take over this planet, why worry about computer code?"

    27375 NO SALES

    Alien obsession around the world

    And he continued, "An advanced species looking to inhabit Earth would concern themselves more with the DNA code and seek gradually to hybridize our race. Hybridizing our species, which I believe is already taking place, is the most efficient and logical way to take over a planet."

    So in other words, why would aliens from deep space bother hacking our Facebook pages when they can just steal our DNA?

    Kendrick Lamar says he was ‘probably’ abducted by aliens as a kid

    Birnes, who has devoted his life to researching UFOs and the aliens aboard them, believes, "We have already become a hybridized species-when our planet was first visited hundreds of thousands of years ago."

    We are the extraterrestrials.

    Damn! It's just my luck I got to be one of the short greys and not one of tall ones with the giant eyes who never have a bad hair day.

    Tardigrade (Water Bear)

    The darling of the microscopic world is the tardigrade, a hardy little microbe that’s so tiny it’s invisible to the naked eye. Nicknamed the “water bear,” this minuscule metazoan can survive some of the harshest climates in our universe, like deep oceans, red-hot geothermal vents, and even the walls of space-bound rockets. But that’s not why humans like them so much. We love them because, up close, the tardigrades we’re familiar with are plump, doughy, and altogether very cute.

    But tardigrades are not a species but rather an entire family of organisms, and not all of its members evolved such pleasing aesthetics. On Wednesday, in the journal PLoS One, researchers led by Daniel Stec, Ph.D., from the Jagiellonian University in Poland report the discovery of Macrobiotus shonaicus sp. nov., a newly discovered species of tardigrade.

    In this video uploaded by study co-author and Keio University biologist Kazuharu Arakawa, Ph.D., one can’t help but notice this tardigrade is not as cute. If the tardigrades we’re used to seeing look like little water bears, this one looks like a mid-length water bear turd with legs or a small, impaired platypus … if you’re feeling generous.

    Alas, like humans among all the great apes, not all tardigrade species can be so lovable. The tardigrade type you’ve probably cooed over is the eutardigrada, images of which are commonly used as visual shorthand for the tardigrade class as a whole. Indeed, close-up shots of eutardigrades themselves, a subclass of over 700 species, make them seem quite cute.

    Eutardigrades, in contrast, are objectively adorable.

    But there are many species of tardigrades, found all over the world and probably beyond. The new species, M. shonaicus sp. nov., is actually one of 168 known tardigrade species in Japan alone.

    The researchers found this aesthetically impaired little guy in a similarly homely place: a scoop of moss from a car park in Tsuruoka-City, Japan, where Arakawa rented an apartment nearby (“specific permission was not required,” the authors note). Using phase contrast light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, they snapped close-up shots of the new species, revealing a scary mouth, scary claws, and really scary eggs.

    Here it is in its entirety, looking rather bland:

    m. shonaicus tardigrade

    Kind of leech-like, if you ask me. 

    Here’s its scary mouth:

    tardigrade species m. shonaicus

    M. shonaicus's freaky mouth.

    Here are its freaky claws:

    m. shonaicus tardigrade

    Yikes.

    The eggs are the pièce de résistance. Close up, they’ve got a bulbous middle that narrows into a floppy opening crowned with wild, ragged filaments. They do not look unlike a ripe pimple caught mid-pop.

    tardigrade species japan

    See? Not cute.

    These scary eggs, however, were key to the organism’s classification as a new species. Though the organism as a whole is most similar to M. anemone from the United States, M. naskreckii from Mozambique, and M. patagonicus from Argentina, the researchers determined that M. shonaicus’ eggs put it into a class of its own.

    “[It] can be easily distinguished from these species by the presence of thin flexible filaments on terminal discs of the egg process,” they write, describing the flailing, itchy-looking things in the image above. The eggs, furthermore, have a solid, poreless surface, putting them in a subclass known as the persimilis. The new classification is as follows:

    tardigrade


    Despite itself, M. shonaicus has earned its place on the tardigrade family tree.

    In the biological world, it’s not easy to earn your place as a unique species with its own classification. Perhaps it’s for the best, then, that M. shonaicus has so many, uh, unique features, even though its overall appearance leaves much to be desired.

    Silicon-based life on Earth? Only artificially, so far — but maybe natural on other planets

    Scientists have successfully nudged a strain of bacteria to create carbon-silicon bonds for the first time. Such research will help flesh out our understanding of silicon-based life — which doesn’t appear on Earth but could on other planets.

    Pure Quartz.

    Quartz, or rock crystal, the second most abundant mineral in the Earth’s crust, is a mixture of (mostly) silicon and oxygen. The first most abundant mineral, feldspar, also contains (mostly) silicon.
    Image credits Stefan Schweihofer.

    You may not think of it much, but silicon is actually really common here on good ole Earth — it’s the second most common element in our planet’s crust after oxygen. About nine-tenths of crustal rocks contain silicon in the form of silica or other silicates. The processor that’s allowing you to read ZME Science contains silicon — the glass panes on your windows, too. It’s so ubiquitous in our planet’s chemical makeup that a geologist can tell you which volcanoes will explode, and which would simply ‘flow’ on eruption, just by looking at how much silicon its magma contains. Sitting just one step away from carbon in the periodic table, silicon shares most of the properties that made carbon ideally suited for organic use.

    Which makes the following point that much more curious: life as we know it simply isn’t that big on using silicon. It pops up here and there, in the tissues of certain plants or the shells of some marine organisms, but surprisingly little overall. Instead, Earthlings much prefer carbon.

    Research from the California Institute of Technology, however, may put the element back on biology’s menu. The team successfully coaxed E.coli into producing a protein that can form carbon-silicon (C-Si) bonds. Their work sheds more light on why the latter element seems to be shunned by Earthly life, and where we might find organisms that don’t feel the same way.

    Silly cons

    The team started by engineering a strain of E. coli bacteria to produce a protein normally found in bacteria from Icelandic hot springs which can bind silicon to carbon. When the team first used their engineered strain to produce the protein in question, the compound proved to be very inefficient. Successive iterations and natural mutations, however, resulted in an enzyme that could forge organic silicon molecules some 15 times more efficiently than any chemical process the team could apply to the same goal. Using this molecule, the team produced twenty organic C-Si compounds, all of which proved to be stable.

    So, by this step, they had proven that life can incorporate silicon — it’s just that it doesn’t particularly want to.

    You might argue, gosh, it’s so easy for a biological system to do it, how do you know it’s not being done out there?” says coauthor Frances Arnold. “We don’t really know, but it’s highly unlikely.

    Arnold was referring to other planets in this context, but the point he’s trying to make can also be applied to Earth. Do we know beyond a doubt that there isn’t silicon life on Earth? Well, no. But we have reasonable grounds to assume that there isn’t.

    The issue here is a problem of availability. Silicon is much more common on Earth than carbon, but virtually all of it is extremely costly for life to access. Silicon is so prevalent in the crust because it’s a huge fan of oxygen, and it will bind with any available atom of the gas to form rocks. All of the silicon compounds that the team fed their bacteria to make these new compounds were manmade and life wouldn’t have any chance of finding them in the wild.

    Carbon, on the other hand, is very stable chemically. Its relative lack of interest in hooking up with oxygen is especially useful for life, as it can use the atom to create huge molecules without much risk of them oxidizing and breaking apart. It also allows carbon to exist in a pure state (graphite for example) in nature, while silicon can’t — this is a very important distinction, as in molecular ‘economy’, this means carbon can be acquired at a much, much lower price (energy expenditure) than silicon. Finally, when you burn carbon you get a gas that can then be re-used by life; silicon lacks this perk.

    Silicon optics.

    But it can be quite shiny, as these silicon optic pieces showcase.

    Finally, silicon-based life couldn’t use water as carbon-based life does; the two simply don’t have chemistry. Instead, it would have to substitute another liquid, such as methane, for the job — but that’s not stable under normal conditions on Earth, either.

    In the end, the heart of the matter isn’t that silicon can’t be a foundation for life — it’s just that, on Earth, carbon can do the job much more easily, at greater efficiency, and at a lower cost. The ‘job’ here being life.

    However, that’s not to say silicon-carbon bonds aren’t useful. We produce such compounds in the lab all the time and use them in products ranging from electronics to pharmaceuticals. The team hopes that their bacteria can help produce these substances much faster, much more cheaply, and with a lesser environmental footprint. It could also open the way to whole new materials.

    An enzyme can do what chemists thought only they could do,” Arnold says.“The chemical bond could appear in thousands and thousands of different molecules, some of which could be useful,

    They’re all completely new chemical entities that are easily available now just by asking bacteria to make them.”

    Silly life

    Beyond the immediate practical considerations, the research also begs the question: is Earth-based silicon life feasible? The results showed, at the very least, that silicon isn’t harmful to life as we know it. Perhaps, if life had ready access to the element, it would incorporate it more in its structures and processes, despite its limitations.

    And that invites the question of whether life can be made to incorporate elements that we’ve never seen it use before.

    What happens when you incorporate other elements?” Arnold asks. “Can nature even do that?”

    “Presumably we could make components of life that incorporate silicon—maybe silicon fat or silicon-containing proteins—and ask, what does life do with that? Is the cell blind to whether carbon is there or silicon is there? Does the cell just spit it out? Does the cell eat it? Does it provide new functions that life didn’t have before?”

    “I’d like to see what fraction of things that chemists have figured out we could actually teach nature to do. Then we really could replace chemical factories with bacteria.

    One particularly well-suited solution to the limitations of silicon on our Earth is to move the context to another planet. Any seasoned lover of sci-fi, and I proudly count myself among their number, has run into the idea of silicon-based aliens at least once. For now, the “alien life” part remains in the domain of fantasy, but the chemistry behind that idea is very firmly lodged in the domain of science. For example Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, sports a chilly average temperature of -179° Celsius (-290° Fahrenheit), very little oxygen (that’s locked in water ice), and an abundance of methane rivers and lakes.

    [Read Further] Yes that’s weird, but the weather gets even weirder on other planets — even simple rain.

    In this context, silicon would be much better suited as a biochemical base for life than carbon. In what is perhaps a sprinkling of cosmic irony, however, Titan sports a lot of carbon (even more than Earth), but precious little silicon — and most of it is buried deep, near the moon’s core. But it goes to show that there are worlds out there where silicon is the way to go, not carbon. Overall our chances of finding silicon-based life, or life that incorporates silicon, are pretty slim. And that, again, comes down to the fact that carbon is the more stable of the lot. In the grand scheme of things, there can be silicon life out there — but it will probably be pretty rare.

    Still, for now, research into C-Si bonds could usher in a new method of cheaply producing what, today, are relatively pricey compounds. And organic silicon compounds could have very valuable uses in medicine and other applications. So, while we look and pine for silicon-based life out in the universe, we stand to gain a lot from studying it on Earth.

    The paper “Directed evolution of cytochrome c for carbon–silicon bond formation: Bringing silicon to life” has been published in the journal Science.

    The moon may have formed from a giant spinning donut of vaporized rock

     BY TIBI PUIU

    The moon could have formed from a seething, spinning cloud of vaporized rock, which scientists call a ‘synestia’. Scientists at the University of California, Davis and Harvard University claim that this novel lunar formation model ties several loose ends that competing and more established formation theories could not resolve.

    According to the mainstream lunar formation theory, early in our planet history, Earth collided with a Mars-sized object called Theia. The highly energetic collision threw molten rock and metal into orbit which eventually coalesced, forming the moon. For more than 20 years, this has been the canonical model for the formation of the moon and modern planet Earth. But, compelling as it may be, this model is likely wrong, according to Simon Lock, a graduate student at Harvard’s Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences.

    Modern analyses show that both the Earth and the moon have nearly the same isotopic “fingerprint”, suggesting they both formed from an identical source. What’s more, trajectory models suggest that there’s a very narrow range of collisions that might be able to get enough mass into orbit. “There’s only a couple of degree window of impact angles and a very narrow range of sizes…and even then some impacts still don’t work,” Lock said in a statement.

    “Our model explains, for the first time, how the Moon acquired its distinct composition. The Moon has a very similar composition to Earth in the major rock-forming elements (e.g., Al, Mg, Si) but depleted in elements that are more easily vaporized. Because the Moon formed within the synestia, surrounded by hot vapor, it inherited its composition from Earth but only retained the elements that are more difficult to vaporize. The more volatile elements remained in the vapor of the synestia. When the synestia cooled and contracted inside the Moon’s orbit, it took all the more volatile elements with it. We have shown that the pressures and temperatures at which the Moon would have formed inside the synestia would give it a composition similar to that observed in our Moon. Ours is the first model to be able to quantitatively explain the Moon’s composition,” Lock told ZME Science.

    “Our model can also help explain why Earth and the Moon appear to have formed from the same material and why our Moon is so big,” he added.

    Lock, along with colleagues from Harvard and UC Davis, have devised a new model that is better able to account for these inconsistencies. It relies on a new type of planetary object called synestia — a rapidly spinning mass of molten and vaporized rock, with some matter belonging to the body in orbit around itself. The whole thing looks a lot like a giant planetary-sized donut made of vaporized rock. “Synestia” comes from “syn-,” “together” and “Hestia,” Greek goddess of architecture and structures.

    The term “synestia” was coined by Lock and Sarah Stewart, who is professor of planetary science at the University of California, Davis. Both researchers are academically focused on studying what happens when planet-sized objects smash into each other. Particularly, the two are interested in what happens during the collisions of massive spinning objects.

    Any rotating object has an angular momentum which needs to stay conserved. The law of conservation of angular momentum states that when no external torque acts on an object, no change of angular momentum will occur. If the net torque is zero, then angular momentum is constant or conserved.

    It’s the conservation of angular momentum that can explain why an ice skater can increase the angular acceleration by bringing his or her arms and legs close to the vertical axis of rotation. Because the moment is conserved, when the skater decreases rotational inertia, the rotation rate must increase. Ultimately, the skater’s angular momentum is the same. And when two ice skaters catch ahold of each other, the angular momentum of each skater adds up — again, per the law of conservation of angular momentum, the summed angular momentum must remain the same. As a nice bit of trivia, it’s because of this law that the solar system is flat.

    Now, imagine what happens when your two skaters are actually two planets that crash into each other. When Lock and Stewart modeled what happened to Earth-sized rocky planets after a collision with other large objects over a range of high temperatures and high angular momentum, they found this completely new planetary structure.

    The main challenge in this research was breaking our preconceptions about what the aftermath of giant impacts should look like. Two of the most significant ‘Eureka’ moments were that the realization that impacts were creating a very different type of planetary structure, synestias, and that the synestia was so large that the Moon would be forming inside the vapor of the synestia,” Lock told ZME Science.

    Out of the Earth-synestia, chunks of molten rock which were injected into orbit following the impact formed the seed for the moon. Synestias likely don’t last long — not more than a couple hundred years — because they can’t sustain their heat for too long, and shrink rapidly, finally collapsing into a molten planet. And while the Earth-synestia gradually shrank, vaporized silicate rock rained into the proto-moon, which explains how the moon inherited its composition from Earth. At the same time, because it formed at high temperatures (4,000-6,000°F), the moon lost the easily vaporized elements which is why the moon also has a distinct composition.

    The synestia model answers many long-standing questions about Earth’s and the moon’s formation, but this work is still in its infancy. Much more work must be completed to refine the model further. For instance, scientists would like to know how the vapor that formed the moon flowed and behaved in more detail.

    “The study of forming Moon-formation from a synestia is still in the preliminary stages. We have shown that each of the steps to form the Moon from the synestia are feasible, but there is a lot more detailed interrogation of each of these steps yet to do. Also, by better constraining the chemical and isotopic composition of Earth and the Moon, we can find new tests of our model to see whether it truly can produce a Moon that looks like our own,” Lock said.

    “It may be possible to observe synestias in upcoming exoplanet surveys, but the lifetime of terrestrial synestias is so short and the possibility of observing one is quite low,” he added about the possibility of witnessing a synestia in the making.

    “Forming the Moon within the vaporized Earth is a fundamentally new environment for Moon formation. This model changes the emphasize of the study of Moon formation from a particular impact to the properties of the synestia produced by the impact. There are a range of very different impacts that could have formed our Moon.”

    If you’d like to learn more about the synestia moon formation model, Lock made a website explaining it in great detail. You’re welcome to check it out.

    PENTAGON UFO BOMBSHELL: Former defence minister claims US IS storing 'ALIEN UFO parts'

    A FORMER minister of defence has sensationally claimed the remains of recovered alien technology are being secretly stored away from public view and claims the US has weapons to bring down UFOs. Paul Hellyer, a former Canadian Minister of Defence alleges the US Government has been in contact with extraterrestrials for years, and claims Washington has obtained flying saucer technology, but has covered it up.

    Paul-Hellyer

    Paul Hellyer is convinced aliens are being hidden from the public.

    His bombshell claims come just weeks after it emerged the US Pentagon had a top-secret UFO investigation team from 2007 to 2012, that allegedly obtained "materials from UFOs".

    In December, a New York Times article revealed details of a top-secret £16 million US Pentagon study into the potential threat posed by UFOs.

    The report claimed the Department of Defense (DoD) Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Programme (AATIP) even recovered "unknown alloys" believed to have come from a UFO that had been tested and found to have properties unknown to science.

    Mr Hellyer, who was a minister in the 1960s, believes top secret departments have been harvesting technology from the advanced lifeforms to develop hi-tech weaponry and aircraft, Dailystar.co.uk reports

    They’ve been working on technology that they got from the aliens and not only that but the particle guns based on the work of Tesla and others.

    Paul Hellyer

    In a recent Lazarus Effect YouTube podcast he claimed some of this groundbreaking knowledge had “most certainly” been shared with the UK.

    A former US Air Force Charles James Hall, who has written about his alleged encounters with aliens at a Nevada base, reportedly told Mr Hellyer they had a hangar for a “mother ship that came into the side of a mountain on the nights of the full moon”.

    Mr Hall claims the air force, back in the 1960s, had already been exchanging technological information with “tall whites”, an alleged blonde-haired human-like race of aliens, according to Hellyer.

    In the podcast, Mr Hellyer, 93, said: “If the US was that far advanced in the exchange of technology in the 1960s where are they today?”

    “They’ve been working on technology that they got from the aliens and not only that but the particle guns based on the work of Tesla and others.

    “That is the primary purpose of the anti ballistic missile shield, the weapons are ones that can be aimed in either direction to control the situation on earth but equally, if not more important, to shoot down UFOs.

    “I do believe they have developed two or three kinds of weapons that are capable of disabling and bringing down UFOs.”

    Mr Hellyer has remained in Canadian politics throughout his career and is the longest serving current member of the country’s Privy Council.

    His theory claims that four species of aliens have been visiting Earth for thousands of years.

    Mr Hellyer is not alone in this thinking, with many so-called alien disclosure campaigners claiming the alien cover up has been in place since the alleged Roswell UFO crash of 1947.

    Conspiracy theorists claim that a UFO was found crashed outside the New Mexico town and the remains of it have been hidden away ever since.

    Since news broke of the AATIP broke there have been calls for the metal and any reports on it to be produced, but so far nothing has materialised.

    Grootste vliegtuig ter wereld is breder dan een voetbalveld - HLN.be

    Het grootste vliegtuig heeft een spanwijdte van maar liefst 117 meter.

     Strato launch Het grootste vliegtuig heeft een spanwijdte van maar liefst 117 meter.
     Al bijna zeven jaar werkt Microsoft-medeoprichter Paul Allen aan een gigantisch vliegtuig waarmee hij raketten de ruimte in wil sturen. Na enkele succesvolle stuur- en remtests op het tarmac is de Stratolaunch weer een stapje dichter bij zijn eerste vlucht.

    Het is haast een surrealistisch beeld, het vliegtuig met twee rompen en een lange rechte vleugel in het midden van de Californische woestijn. De Stratolaunch, met een spanwijdte van maar liefst 117 meter, wordt het grootste vliegtuig ter wereld. De 28 wielen moeten meer dan 590 ton (het gewicht wanneer het vliegtuig geladen is) dragen, terwijl zes Boeing 747-vliegtuigmotoren al dat gewicht de lucht in moeten krijgen.

    Het kolossale gevaarte vliegt tot een hoogte van zo’n 11 kilometer. Daar wordt de raket met satelliet afgevuurd naar een lage baan om de Aarde. Paul Allen hoopt met het vliegtuig de kostprijs van zo’n lancering stevig te drukken, want voor het afschieten van dergelijke raket vanaf een lanceerplatform op de grond is veel brandstof - en dus veel geld - nodig.

     Stratolaunch Systems

    Een bedrijf tekende in anderhalf jaar geleden al een contract met Stratolaunch Systems. Met het vliegtuig van Allens bedrijf wil Orbital ATK zijn Pegasus XL, dat gebruikt wordt om kleine satellieten te vervoeren, naar de ruimte brengen.

    Mijlpaal

    Maar daar is het dus nog even op wachten: de Stratolauch moet nog uitgebreid getest worden. Het van zijn stellingen halen en naar buiten rollen was alvast een eerste mijlpaal. Gisteren werden de motoren getest. Oorspronkelijk waren de eerste testvluchten al voorzien voor 2016 en 2017, maar zoals dat met projecten van zo’n omvang gaat, werden die al uitgesteld naar volgend jaar. Dan kan het paradepaardje met vleugels groter dan een voetbalveld eindelijk de lucht in.

    Droom

    Paul Allen, volgens Forbes een van de rijkste mensen ter wereld, beschreef in zijn memoires Idea Man al hoe hij als kind geobsedeerd was door de ruimtevaart. Hij droomde van het ontwerpen van raketten die Mars zouden verkennen. “Andere interesses kwamen en gingen, maar mijn obsessie met raketten is gebleven”, schreef hij. “Na Apollo legde NASA de nadruk op onbemande raketten. De ruimtevaart verloor zijn stempel, maar nooit mijn interesse.”

    US Fighter Jets And A UFO Apparently In A Dogfight Over Lincoln County, Nevada

    ufos

    Two planes and a third object were captured on photos silhouetted against the sky above a patch of desert in Lincoln County, Nevada. Many believe that the dramatic photos show US fighter jets battling a UFO over Area 51, an alleged top-secret alien site.

    UFO researchers Tim Doyle and Tracey Su captured the photos while they were camping out 12 miles from the military base.

    They claimed that they spotted the two fighters soaring above and they decided to take pictures. Then a third shape appeared when they looked back at the images later.

    The pair believed the trio were involved in a plane dogfight.

    Tim described the UFO as similar to a triangular unmanned drone because it was probably too small to have a person inside it.

    Tim added that it definitely looked as though the three crafts are interacting with each other.

    The US Air Force base, located approximately 80 miles from Las Vegas, is thought to be the home of experimental aircraft development and testing.

    The CIA only acknowledge its existence after a Freedom of Information request in 2013.

    Many conspiracy theorists claim the highly secretive facility has been used for reverse engineering of a crashed alien spacecraft at Roswell in 1947.

    Mysterious Lights appear in the Sky over Milwaukee - FOX6 News

    On Tuesday morning, February 27, 2018 strange moving lights appeared over Milwaukee and were captured live on TV from FOX6.


    They quickly explained that it was just a huge flock of seagulls but not everyone is convinced because a few days earlier another mysterious light fell from the sky over Milwaukee and they believe that both events are connected to each other.

    Elisabeth Zillinskas who recorded the bright light over Milwaukee on February 24, 2018 states that she has no idea what exactly fell from the sky, it is a complete mystery.
