Planet Nine Breakthrough: Scientists Spot Distant Object In Our Solar System
Planet Nine Breakthrough: Scientists Spot Distant Object In Our Solar System
Scientists say—once again—that a previously undiscovered world may lurk in the outermost reaches of our solar system.
For several years, astronomers have debated whether or not such a planet exists beyond the orbit of Pluto.
Now, a new study may have finally found evidence the elusive world—dubbed as planet Nine is not just a myth.
Using data from the Dark Energy Survey— a visible and near-infrared survey that aims to probe the dynamics of the expansion of the Universe and the growth of large-scale structure—experts spotted a never-before-seen object.
And while the Dark Energy Survey is an unlikely tool for finding objects inside out solar system since nearly all of them orbit within the plane, it did come in handy for spotting the newly found object: it has an orbit tilted by 45 degrees with respect to the planet of the solar system, and its something scientists in the new study didn’t expect to see.
Nevertheless, it was something predicted by Batygin and Brown, Caltech researchers who proposed in 2016 the planet was real.
But despite this, David Gerdes, an astronomer at the University of Michigan and a co-author on the new paper told Quanta Magazine “It’s not proof that Planet Nine exists.”
“But I would say the presence of an object like this in our solar system bolsters the case for Planet Nine,” added Gerdes.
The new study describes how astronomers have come across a ‘distant’ rocky object—perhaps as large as a dwarf planet—which they argue was pushed into an extraordinary orbit by the gravitational pull of a massive, undiscovered world.
They argue that this discovery offers unprecedented evidence that planet nine must be out there somewhere.
In 2016, astronomers investigated the strange orbits of six objects in a distant region of icy bodies stretching beyond Neptune. The objects had orbits that point in the same direction and are tilted 30° ‘downward’ compared to the solar plane in which the eight planets circle the sun. This fact say experts, is a tell-tale sign of the existence of a massive world.

Planet Nine—A world astronomers hunt for desperately
The elusive alien world was first proposed to exist by astronomers at Caltech in 2016, as they spotted how a group of icy objects at the edge of our solar system have strange, tilted orbits.
“It has a real magnetism to it,” said Gregory Laughlin, an astronomer at Yale University.
“I mean, finding a 10-Earth-mass planet in our solar system would be a discovery of unrivaled scientific magnitude.”
Caltech astronomers suggested how the orbits of so-called trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) were altered by the gravitational pull of a planet ten times the mass of earth, located beyond Pluto.
Researchers discovered back then how the TNOs had elliptical orbits all pointing in the same direction. They also found the objects were tilted around 30 degrees ‘downward’ compared to the planet in which the planets of our solar system orbit the sun.
And while there has been ample evidence that suggests such a planet isn’t just a myth, we have failed to spot the elusive world in the sky.
NASA says its probably real
In 2017, NASA joined the discussion about the elusive planet. The Space Agency highlighted five different lines of evidence that suggest such a planet is real.
The US Space Agency also said that the ‘inexistence’ of planet Nine generates more problems than it solves.
Dr. Konstantin Batygin from Caltech said:
“There are now five different lines of observational evidence pointing to the existence of Planet Nine. If you were to remove this explanation and imagine Planet Nine does not exist, then you generate more problems than you solve. All of a sudden, you have five different puzzles, and you must come up with five different theories to explain them.
Tesla, like the genius he was, was way ahead of his time.
He envisioned a bright and positive future for mankind, as he patented and created hundreds of technologies that no one before had envisioned, nor dared to imagine.
In this article, we take a look at seven ‘lost’ inventions by Tesla, which many people are unaware of.
1. Tesla’s UFO—antigravity technology
We know that Tesla was all about free energy and alternative powers sources.
Actually, it wasn’t unidentified.
Despite this, the methods and design of Tesla’s revolutionary vehicle is believed to match the description of people who witnessed disk-shaped flying objects, or UFO’s.
It is believed that Tesla’s UFO had ‘eyes’ made of electro-optical lenses, arranged in quadrants, allowing the pilot to see everything. Screens and monitors are placed on a console where the browser can observe all areas around the vehicle, and Tesla’s incredible invention included magnifying lenses, which could have been used without changing positions.
Evidence of such a vehicle can be found in an interview between Nikola Tesla and The New York Herald, from 1911:
“My flying machine will have neither wings nor propellers.You might see it on the ground and you would never guess that it was a flying machine. Yet it will be able to move at will through the air in any direction with perfect safety, at higher speeds than have yet been reached, regardless of weather and oblivious of “holes in the air” or downward currents. It will ascend in such currents if desired. It can remain absolutely stationary in the air, even in a wind, for a great length of time. Its lifting power will not depend upon any such delicate devices as the bird has to employ but upon positive mechanical action.”RF
2. Tesla’s Death Ray
Prior to the release of the declassified documents by the FBI, many people argue that Tesla’s Death Ray was just another conspiracy.
Previously, it was believed that Tesla’s Death Ray did not exist, and the FBI claimed for over a decade that none of their agents had EVER investigated Tesla’s papers, nor was the bureau in possession of any of them.
However, after the FBI published Tesla’s files, we learned that among the published files, a letter addressed to J. Edgar Hoover, the first Director of the FBI, highlights the importance of an article in which Tesla speaks of the death ray and its ‘crucial importance’ for future warfare.
It was recommended that Tesla constantly remained under surveillance in order to protect him from ‘foreign enemies’ who may also have an interest in “the secret of such an invaluable instrument of war and/or defense.”
3. Free Energy, and wireless electricity
With the help of funding from JP Morgan, Tesla successfully built and tested the famous Wardenclyffe Tower.
The structure was a massive wireless energy transmission station which, according to Tesla, had the ability to transmit wireless power across great distances.
Tesla saw the Wardenclyffe Tower as the beginning of a massive free energy project.
Tesla wanted to use the tower not only to transmit free energy but to send out messages, telephone calls across the Earth.
As explained by Tesla himself, the Earth is “…like a charged metal ball moving through space”, which creates the enormous, rapidly varying electrostatic forces which diminish in intensity with the square of the distance from Earth, just like gravity. Since the direction of propagation radiates from the earth, the so-called force of gravity is toward earth.
His theories were based on the idea that our planet had the ability to conduct the signals. Using a number of different towers, Tesla could have made the idea work.
However, and as we have learned through history, the idea of Free Energy isn’t really welcomed by big corporations. After all, why give free energy to the masses when you can make the masses pay big time?
Eventually, Tesla’s funding was canceled, and the tower was destroyed, along with Tesla’s ideas of a world powered by free energy.
4. Tesla’s Oscillator
This device was an electromechanical apparatus patented by Tesla in 1893.
The device was popularly known as Tesla’s Earthquake machine after the European inventor claimed that one version of his device caused an Earthquake in New York in 1898.
In other words, the device could allegedly simulate earthquakes, which meant it could be weaponized. Some conspiracy theorists are convinced that Tesla’s technology was later further developed and is being used by HAARP.
5. Tesla’s Futuristic Aircraft
In addition to creating devices that could potentially be used as weapons, and structures that could offer Free Energy to the world, Nikola Tesla also worked on electrically powered airships that, according to reports, could transport passengers from New York to London in three hours.
These aircraft were not ordinary vehicles. They were supposedly able to harness energy right fro Earth’s atmosphere and had no need ever to stop and refuel.
But why have aircraft that makes use of free energy, if billions can be made by selling it?
6. Drones in 1898
More than a hundred years ago, Tesla invented DRONES.
So, everyone who thinks that Drones are actually a product of recent technologies, you are wrong.
It was called Tesla’s TELEAUTOMATON. And the funny part is that the government had this technology in their possession for over a hundred years. This raises a number of questions.
Is it possible that they adopted, further developed, and used ‘drones’ more than half a decade ago?
Here’s an excerpt from Tesla’s Drone patent:
Here is an excerpt from his patent:
“Be it known that I, Nikola Tesla a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful improvements in methods of and apparatus for controlling from a distance the operation of the propelling engines, the steering apparatus, and other mechanism carried by moving bodies or floating vessels, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the drawings accompanying and forming part of the same… The invention which I have described will prove useful in many ways. Vessels or Vehicles of any suitable kind may be used, like life, dispatch, or pilot boats or the like, or for carrying letters, packages, provisions, instruments, objects, or materials of any description, for establishing communication with inaccessible regions and exploring the conditions existing in the same, for killing or capturing whales or other animals of the sea, and for many other scientific, engineering, or commercial purposes; but the greatest value of my invention will result from its effect upon warfare and armaments, for by reason of its certain and unlimited destructiveness it will tend to bring about and maintain permanent peace among nations.”
From: “Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 613,809, dated November 8, 1898.” The full original text and diagrams can be found at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office website: http://patimg1.uspto.gov/.piw?docid=00613809&SectionNum=1&IDKe
7. Propulsion systems for Spacecraft, and Tesla’s Dynamic Theory of Gravity
While we discussed something similar in Tesla’s UFO, the truth is that he went beyond flying objects.
In an unpublished article of Man’s Greatest Achievement, Tesla outlined his Dynamic Theory of Gravity saying that ‘luminiferous ether fills all space’. Tesla said that the ether is acted upon by the life-giving creative force. The ether is thrown into “infinitesimal whirls” (“micro helices”) at near the speed of light, becoming ponderable matter. Then, the force subsides and motion ceases, matter reverts to the ether (a form of “atomic decay”).
Mankind can harness these processes, to:
-Precipitate matter from the ether -Create whatever he wants with the matter, and energy derived -Alter the earth’s size -Control earth’s seasons (weather control) -Guide earth’s path through the Universe, like a spaceship -Cause the collisions of planets to produce new suns and stars, heat, and light -Originate and develop life in infinite forms
When Occam's Razor isn't being misused it could be a rational method to review far fetched claims; unfortunately the most common use of it is to jump to absolute conclusions even though that was never what Occam's Razor intended.
The most common variation of Occam's Razor is: "The simplest explanation is usually the correct one." However this wasn't the original quote although it is close and has the same intention. The following is the original according to Wikipedia:
Occam's razor
Among competing hypotheses that predict equally well, the one with the fewest assumptions should be selected. Other, more complicated solutions may ultimately prove to provide better predictions, but—in the absence of differences in predictive ability—the fewer assumptions that are made, the better. Wikipedia article
This clearly does not say that other possibilities shouldn't be considered; and it acknowledges the possibility that if the simplest theory is proven wrong then it might be rational to move to the second or third simplest theory. Nor does it say anything about pretending inconvenient evidence doesn't exist at all. If it did then it would be easy to recognize as pseudo-science. However this is exactly how many so-called skeptics treat it.
Religious people have a long history of ending debate by claiming that unexplained mysteries are "God's will" pseudo-skeptics have a long history of ending debate by saying that can't be true "because of Occam's Razor."
At the same time many believers often make many claims that are not only absurd but factually flawed where Occam's Razor or other rational skeptical claims really would be justified. From a reasonable skeptical point of view the temptation to ridicule such beliefs should be resisted when possible. Turning Occam's Razor into a pseudo-skeptic tactic wouldn't be helpful in this case and could even play into the hands of fringe believers and scam artists, if people recognize the flawed logic of the pseudo-skeptic and decide to trust the flawed logic of the fringe believer.
There has been an enormous amount of research over the decades into UFOs however the highest profile media coverage that has been presented to the public has been almost useless since it gives plenty of time for fringe believers to present seriously flawed theories that are often full of false facts, mixed in with legitimate unsolved mysteries, and skeptics that often make almost as many blunders as the fringe believers and instead of trying to sort out the legitimate unsolved mysteries so they can be solved they often stereotype them all and ridicule them together.
Most of the coverage of past UFO incidents in the mainstream media only covers one incident at a time and treats it with ridicule, although there are very few of those anymore, at least that is the way they treat it in the mainstream news. However there are plenty of UFO shows on the History Channel, Science Channel, National Geographic Channel, Discovery Channel and more; these shows often cover more incidents at a time but the coverage is seriously flawed and it is hard to believe that they're even trying to do a good job.
The best coverage of past incidents are often in older books or reports from when there were more people that actually tried to do a good job covering the subject or web sites that list many of these reports, however some of them are also mixed in with claims that probably should be considered fringe or unreliable. I provided a long list of reports and related links including those to both UFO researchers ranging from the most rational to the fringe believers along with skeptics, including many that seem more like pseudo-skeptics in UFOs and related links.
A couple of the most comprehensive include The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects, by Edward J. Ruppelt who was the head of Project Blue Book and other government investigation agencies and actually took the subject seriously and The Condon Report which was headed by Edward Condon who was chosen to head an investigation because he was supposedly unbiased. However critics have raised doubts about his lack of biased for several reasons including his claim that UFO were "nonsense," before beginning his investigation and added, "but I'm not supposed to reach that conclusion for another year." These critics claim that is the reason why his report came to conclusions that allegedly weren't supported by the information within the report. If you ask so-called experts whether the contents of this report actually support the conclusions the answer might depend on which side of the debate they're on; however after reading several reports from the government I have noticed that it isn't uncommon for them to do just that and the most important material is often buried where most people including the highest profile reporters won't notice.
I discussed additional evidence of major unsolved mysteries in Why so few arrests for Crop Circles makers? Is there microwave evidence? and 107 Wonders of the Ancient World. In the case of the crop circles the evidence linking them to UFOs is based on testimony from a relatively small number of witnesses, assuming there aren't many more that the media is ignoring, and in the case of the ancient wonders of the world it is difficult if not impossible to find hard evidence linking them to UFOs since they happened so long ago and the circumstances weren't well recorded. However experiments discussed in previous posts clearly indicate that the official explanation for how they were moved hasn't been replicated and it is almost certainly false. this means that either they are related to the UFOs or that they're a totally different unsolved mystery; but many theorists have claimed that they also certainly are a result of an unknown advanced intelligence of some sort.
If the skeptic's claims are true then they need to explain a lot of unsolved mysteries to maintain their claims; otherwise it seems justifiable to at least consider other theories, although using Occam's Razor it would be inappropriate to jump to the most bizarre conclusions. This includes time travel theories which often come up, but they always face one paradox or another that almost certainly indicates they're impossible. It may also include many theories about wormholes or alternative universes, which to the best of my knowledge is based purely on speculation, often coming from unreliable sources.
This means that either we need to find another explanation for all these unsolved mysteries that doesn't involve an unknown advanced intelligence or one that does. If it involves an unknown advanced intelligence that is from this planet how could they remain hidden. If it involves an unknown advanced intelligence that isn't from this planet we need to figure out where it came from and how it might have gotten here and what they're trying to accomplish. It will still be necessary to explain how they remained hidden, but their development would have taken place elsewhere so they would have a much easier time remaining hidden, although the fact that they haven't opened up a line of communication probably indicates their motives one way or another, assuming they exist.
Either way explanations to some of these unsolved mysteries will almost certainly have to get more complicated than some advocates for one theory or another might want to admit. It might be worth remembering that the theory of evolution isn't simple at all although the basic principle might seem that way.
Ironically the vast majority of speculation about interstellar travel involves technology that will be necessary to send people into space and keep them alive. However, even though the NASA missions that do involve sending people into space get the most coverage they're only a small fraction of what NASA does and if you track what they say enough it is clear that it is much more efficient to send automated crafts into space and that relying on computers to conduct many activities is much more common.
If it is possible to travel the enormous distances between solar distances it will be extremely difficult and will almost certainly require best technology from a variety of fields, including propulsion, computer technology, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology and much more, perhaps even including genetic engineering and many other fields that are currently being developed at surprising rates, although they're usually only reported as one advancement at a time and most people don't realize how fast scientific knowledge has been advancing over the past several decades.
A theory that relies on known technology with reasonable speculation about how they might advanced in the relatively near future will almost certainly be more credible than one that makes w2ild assumptions based mostly on speculation, often contradicting known science. If it is possible for the scientific community to develop this technology then presumably it would be possible for another advanced intelligence that has been developing longer to have done it much sooner, and theoretically they could have used it to get here.
Both Project Orion and Project Daedalus involve relatively known technology that could send automated space craft to other solar systems assuming people were willing to invest enough in it and wait long enough for them to travel for decades if not hundreds or even thousands of years before reaching their arrival. Both these projects, if they work according to plan could reach 10-20% of the speed of light. Some people theorize that more advanced research could theoretically develop technology that could reach 50-80% of the speed of light. Anyone familiar with the Inertia Principal would realize that once they get up to speed they will be able to maintain speed in a vacuum indefinitely assuming there is no resistance; however once they get to their destination they would have to reverse their momentum so they would the same amount of energy to slow down with known technology.
Additional technology has also been developed to create a Gravity assist while passing large planets; presumably if this was developed more it could provide additional assistance in propulsion either speeding up or slowing down.
This technology hasn't been put to the test and proven to work but an enormous amount of preliminary research has been done; and it is reasonable to assume that some form of automated interstellar travel might be possible; however this wouldn't enable transport of advanced life which would require much more technology to keep that life alive and would be difficult if not impossible.
The most advanced computer technology, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology and other technologies could also be helpful in sending a long-range space craft to another solar system but unless science develops much further it is unlikely that much if any large commutes or invasions would be possible; it may not even be possible to develop technology like the science fiction stories at all even with the most advanced science after millions of years of research.
James Hansen, one of NASA's most respected researchers on Climate Change created a similar science fiction scenario at the end of his book, "Storms of my Grandchildren." He starts by saying Even though science fiction isn’t my area of expertise, I use the following scenario as a clarion call, and goes on to describe a scenario where an advanced civilization manages to travel to Earth with similar technology that I described. He does assume additional technology will be developed beyond what has already been developed but he seems to keep it within reason that might not include any theories that will never be possible, unlike many fringe theorists or science fiction writers more interested in a dramatic story than realistic science.
He also speculates about the possibility that technology could develop well enough so that a robot with artificial intelligence could operate the spaceship until it gets close to Earth then he could develop life out of DNA samples that would be developed either shortly before arrival or after arrival at the destination and the robot could serve as a surrogate parent. His intention wasn't to develop a science fiction story to advanced an alien transport theory; it was to try to warn people about the damage that Climate Change is doing and convince them to act before it was too late. However intentionally or not he provided what I consider a relatively realistic explanation about how life could travel to different solar system with credible technology that might turn out to be accurate.
Colonel Philip Corso went a step further and claimed that he received access to technology that was retrieved at Roswell and helped distribute it to corporations that developed a lot of the new technology that has been coming out over the past five decades in his book "The Day After Roswell." Like most if not all high profile reports on UFOs this book has some problems, including his cold war beliefs, which are almost certainly distorted, although he might have actually believed them even if they didn't prove to be accurate. And of course he was accused of fabricating his story by many high profile people including UFO researchers Kevin Randle and Stanton Friedman. A close look at just about all high profile research almost always turns up problems including both Corso's books and the efforts to debunk him.
However this should raise other questions about why neither side seems to correct often incredibly simple mistakes. In Why so few arrests for Crop Circles makers? I speculated about the possibility that there might be an effort to "Recruit a group of crackpots" to disclose accurate information through sources that might not seem reliable and release inaccurate information through sources that are considered credible. This hypothesis was based partly on a semi-fictional version of the Roswell incident where Martin Sheen plays a spy that follows Jesse Marcel around. As bizarre as this sounds if it is true it would explain why virtually none of the high profile coverage of UFOs on either side has much credibility. It would also mean that only those that spend an enormous amount of time sorting through the details have a chance of coming close to the truth about what is going on.
Also if the skeptics are right then why don't they express much concerns about the amount of coverage that the media is giving to some of these fringe conspiracy theorists? Many of the best researchers can't get much if any coverage on this subject or any other subject in the traditional media yet the fringe conspiracy theorists and flawed skeptics get plenty of time on the History Channel. This isn't limited to UFO coverage; the political activity in campaigns is now almost as absurd if not more absurd as UFO coverage; and this began before Donald Trump ran for president, and even before the 2010 Tea Party fringe candidates got an enormous amount of coverage while the media ignored rational grassroots candidates.
Absurd things are now standard operating procedure.
Skeptics have been promoting stereotypes about conspiracy theories for so long that they act as if none of them have any credibility; yet if there are no far fetched explanations to UFOs as they seem to believe then doesn't it seem as if there must be an enormous conspiracy to make it seem as if there is?
Some additional information about Corso's claims are available at Colonel Philip Corso and his Critics and Roswell - Colonel Philip Corso Interview. Philip Corso isn't the only one that claims that there has been reverse engineering going on, there are plenty of other people making similar claims in low profile news outlets that report about UFOs; the most prominent other one that I know of is Bob Lazar; however he also has his own credibility problems and Stanton Friedman has also argued that he is a fraud. From what I've seen of Bob Lazar he does seem to have more credibility problems that Philip Corso; but it does seem odd that Stanton Friedman is so concerned about debunking the concept of reverse engineering and occasionally using the same tactics that he has criticized when UFO skeptics use them against him.
It seems reasonable for a good researcher to be concerned about bad researchers that might give UFO research a bad name; however it is also reasonable to assume that if the government did retrieve alien technology that they would try to study it and replicate it. Stanton Friedman has claimed that he does believe that there was a crash at Roswell and that the government retrieved bodies and technology and has been one of the leading investigators claiming this. If Corso's and Lazar's claims are flawed why wouldn't he consider a more rational scenario where the government made at least some effort to reverse engineer as much as they could? This would make sense but instead he is almost completely refuting all reverse engineering claims.
On some occasions Stanton Friedman seems to use some of the same tactics he has previously attributed to skeptics when trying to debunk Philip Corso, including "If one can’t attack the data, attack the people. It is easier." On the "Day After Roswell" episode of the UFO files he spent more time trying to discredit Corso than he did trying to address some of the data, and at one point even claimed that his citation of the alleged MJ-12 documents was a copy of his own work, as if he should have copyrights to control how it is used. He was the highest profile researcher to look into them, but they were apparently given to at least one other researcher, Linda Moulton Howe, before Philip Corso claimed he had access to them at one point.
However, as I said Philip Corso does have some credibility problems and his coauthor is even worse. Bill Birnes went on to host UFO Hunters with an enormous amount of hype and flawed investigation, at one point he even claimed that he considered a hollow moon hypothesis viable, without making any attempt to acknowledge that it would contradict the most basic principles of physics and geology. Unfortunately this is typical of high profile UFO research, which is what makes the "Recruit a Group of Crackpots" hypothesis seem realistic.
Another catch 22 which is rarely considered is that if the claims about reverse engineering are partially true then it means that aliens must have been able to get here one way or another. If these claims aren't true then it means that an enormous amount of technology has developed in a surprisingly short time over the last fifty years. The human race evolved over hundreds of thousands, if not millions or even billions of years; but the industrial revolution only took a couple of hundred years and advances computers, cloning, DNA manipulation, even technology where handicapped people were able to use computers hooked up to their brain to move automated programs and geoengineering, exploring the solar system happened much faster. This is rapidly demonstrating an enormous amount of potential that could include our own ability to travel through space. And if these advances continue to happen then unlike James Hansen science fiction hypothesis where people from the planet Claron had to continue develop for another half a billion years before they could use this technology it seems like a reasonable possibility with this rapid development that we might be able to do it in a few more hundred or thousand years.
Unless of course we destroy the environment as James Hansen is warning us not to do; and the most powerful political people clearly seem to be trying to do just that thanks to what appears to be an insane political and fiscal ideology that is designed to consolidate all their political power and money so they can get it all while the rest of society falls apart.
With or without advanced technology from aliens we're developing science at a fast rate and using new advances for insane purposes, and even if you think this hypothesis is insane it seems reasonable to agree with James Hansen's warning and stop the destruction of the planet.If that doesn't happen then we won't come close to developing the technology James Hansen speculates about on the planet Claron before we destroy ourselves.
Is this theory starting to seem like the simplest one that should be chosen according to Occam's Razor?
Perhaps not; or at least it doesn't seem like it would be the most credible one. However in order for other theories to be viable from a scientific point of view they need to explain all the related unsolved mysteries. If the ancient megaliths or crop circles or many other unsolved mysteries aren't related to UFOs then an explanation for the UFOs doesn't need to address them but other explanations will still be needed to solve those mysteries; and if skeptics have to rely on ridicule or ignore inconvenient facts to explain them then other theories should at least be considered.
If skeptics don't do this then why shouldn't they simply accept the oldest and most common explanation for just about everything, "It's God's will." This sounds like the simplest explanation and I can't imagine why more religious people don't use Occam's Razor to argue in it's favor. But of course simply saying "It's God's will" when ever they can't explain an unsolved mystery doesn't explain anything and is unscientific. Why would it be acceptable to refute everything by simply saying "that must be false because of Occam's Razor," often accompanied by an enormous amount of ridicule and circular argument that doesn't address important unsolved mysteries?
In order to figure out which theory really is the simplest then it will be necessary to organize them all and ensure that they all explain related unsolved mysteries then the simplest one that actually does this should be chosen, at least until a better one comes along. There also needs to be more sincere efforts to review science, which there isn't. This includes the incompetent coverage of The Big Bang which is a Political Theory Disguised as Science as I explained in a previous post. If you applied Occam's Razor to the Big Bang verses the Steady State theory it seems like it would be more rational to consider the possibility that the doppler effect might be less reliable when it comes to checking galaxies more than 2 and a half million light years away, therefore as Fred Hoyle claimed, the Steady State is by far the simplest hypothesis and it has fewer flaws if any; however the big bang seems to have more political support.

Beyond time and space. NAZI UFO 1935-1945, Secret Nazi Experiments.
For decades, a rich mythology has developed around the claim that Nazi Germany’s engineers secretly developed one or more super-sophisticated saucer-shaped aircraft and unmanned disc-like missiles.
Tat this technology was appropriated by the US or the Soviet Union in the post-war period. The names Schriever, Miethe, Habermohl, Belluzzo are associated with some of these stories, and the locations of the secret plants where these craft were allegedly built range from Prague to Stettin to shadowy underground factories in the legendary “Nazi southern redoubt.”

Abandoned 1943 Nazi Concrete ‘Rings’ in Russia.
Sometimes it happens that a finding at first glance fits into a complex puzzle, and may even serve as evidence that the story is true. So it happened with concrete rings discovered on the coast of the Barents Sea. According to many it is ex-starting devices for Nazi ufo
For more than 70 years these places, 170 kilometers to the North of Murmansk, were considered confidential. Nowadays a strict regime of access operates also. These mysterious objects were built during World War II by the Germans.
They are located near the village of Liinakhamari, in the Pechenga district, close to the Barents Sea. There are different stories about their purpose, one says that it is a platform for artillery guns, but they are aimed back from the Gulf, to where the Soviet warships could appear, another says that they are launching pads for the Wehrmacht’s unknown flying objects.
Not only ufologists and conspirators, but also local people swear that the mysterious ring built in Murmansk Nazis who have tested their miraculous weapons.
It has come about primarily known project Dier Glocke, or bell. The machine working on the basis of antigravity, driven by a mysterious substance Xerxum 525, whose existence, although never confirmed, but it was written about him already so many books and filmed so many
documents that simply must exist. At least it sees conspirators. Now circular concrete rings look like they just started from there Die Glocke or more of the entire range of anticipated
Nazi ufo. Proponents of conspiracy theories cheered because they were able to find them by evidence that the Nazi secret projects existed.
At the end of World War II, when the defeat of Nazi Germany was almost certain, the US Army began to discover secret underground laboratories and factories throughout the territories. Missile systems, new cannons, jet planes, an atomic bomb, this is just a fraction of what has come to the surface. German advanced technologies and research were miles away from the rest of the world.
Secret Nazi Experiments.
But what happened to the best scientists of the Third Reich and state-of-the-art research? Workers in secret factories used prisoners from concentration camps. Almost everything that has been found in these strictly classified places has come to an end in the US. This in essence reflected the world’s power from non-human research. But what did the Germans also prepare, and what were their plans, which never saw the light of the world?
German UFOs During World War II, flying plates were developed. This fact is really incredible, although research has probably never achieved the desired results. There are theories that should have been used to transfer a planned atomic bomb.
Atomic bomb Official testimonies say that the Germans were far from developing a real atomic weapon. So they told the Nuremberg court. On the other hand, what is the fact? In 1945, Kurt Diebner’s scientific team had to test the atomic bomb at a German shooter in the Jonastal Valley, where we can now look for increased radioactivity. There are also several witnesses gathered by German historian Rainer Karlsch in the book Hitler’s Bomb. Other sources say that Hitler considered nuclear physics to be a Jewish science, and he did not want to share anything with nuclear research.
The project led by renowned rocket scientist Hermann Oberth had planned to create 22 miles above the ground a huge mirror that would be 100 meters wide and the Nazis would be able to burn any city on the sunny rays or arrange a nice weather on the Rimsko Seme. The metal sodium colossus was supposed to be (fortunately) finished up to 50 or 100 years after designing it.
In 1946, one year after the war, 27 US military ships, 4,000 soldiers and 400 scientists flocked to the shores of Antarctica. After two weeks, however, they have suffered huge losses, and so far this megalomania action is only talking about harmless research. Even after almost 70 years we still wonder what is hiding in Nové Švábsko? It was during the Second World War, when the Germans declared part of Antarctica as their territory and was named after New Swabia, and there were many mysterious German submarines that did not go back on its shores. Allegedly, there have been research institutes in newly-discovered warm lakes. But what really happened there?
Too many unanswered questions, many concealments and few answers. It is definitely a phase of history that needs to be deeper. But it could be a dangerous game.
Galaxies are amazing things, and we can now see some of them in unprecedented detail.

“There has never before been a star cluster and a stellar catalog that included observations in ultraviolet light,” explained survey leader Daniela Calzetti of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. “Ultraviolet light is a major tracer of the youngest and hottest star populations, which astronomers need to derive the ages of stars and get a complete stellar history. The synergy of the two catalogs combined offers an unprecedented potential for understanding star formation.”
Light comes in different wavelengths. Ultraviolet light (UV) has a shorter wavelength than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays, and UV constitutes about 10% of the total light output of stars like the Sun. When you “look” at something in different wavelengths, you can infer different things about its physical properties. In this case, astronomers were trying to learn more about star formation, a process that still holds many secrets.
Astronomers combined new and old Hubble observations, looking for detailed information on young, massive stars and star clusters, as well as their evolution. It’s ironic, really — almost all we know about the universe, we know thanks to light from stars, and yet we don’t know how the stars themselves form.

As far as we know, stars form inside relatively dense concentrations of interstellar gas and dust known as molecular clouds. These areas are extremely cold (just ten degrees K above absolute zero), and at those temperatures, gases become molecular, meaning they’re much more likely to bind together. Oftentimes, gases clump up to higher and higher densities, and once a specific point is passed, stars can form. But here’s the thing: before the star is actually formed, the region is very dense and dark, virtually opaque to visible light (something called a dark nebula). Astronomers can still investigate them to an extent, but they use infrared and radio telescopes. So, instead, researchers try to find very young stars.
The research team carefully selected the LEGUS targets from among 500 galaxies, all of which lie between 11 million and 58 million light-years from Earth. Team members chose the galaxies based on their mass, star-formation rate, and abundances of metals –which, in this context, means elements that are heavier than hydrogen and helium.
Galaxies come in multiple shapes and sizes. We tend to think of galaxies as being spiral, Milky Way-like structures, but galaxies can be quite varied in terms of shape and size. Stars tend to be distributed quite regularly in galaxies, but while groups of stars tend to be more predictable, the same can’t be said about individual stars.
“When we look at a spiral galaxy, we usually don’t just see a random distribution of stars,” Calzetti said. “It’s a very orderly structure, whether it’s spiral arms or rings, and that’s particularly true with the youngest stellar populations. On the other hand, there are multiple competing theories to connect the individual stars in individual star clusters to these ordered structures.
These six images represent the variety of star-forming regions in nearby galaxies. The galaxies are part of the Hubble Space Telescope’s Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey (LEGUS), the sharpest, most comprehensive ultraviolet-light survey of star-forming galaxies in the nearby universe. The six images consist of two dwarf galaxies (UGC 5340 and UGCA 281) and four large spiral galaxies (NGC 3368, NGC 3627, NGC 6744, and NGC 4258). The images are a blend of ultraviolet light and visible light from Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 and Advanced Camera for Surveys.

This is where the new survey comes in, and why it’s so important. By imaging the galaxies in such detail, astronomers are able to zoom in on individual star populations, thus gaining more information about them. We can almost certainly expect a flurry of studies on star formation in the near future.
“By seeing galaxies in very fine detail — the star clusters — while also showing the connection to the larger structures, we are trying to identify the physical parameters underlying this ordering of stellar populations within galaxies. Getting the final link between gas and star formation is key for understanding galaxy evolution,” Calzetti concludes.

Filer’s Files # 19 – 2018 – UFO’s Fly Over D.C. - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: General Walter Smith CIA Director and UFOs, UFOs Fly Over D.C., TR-3B, U.S. Forest Service UFO Files, Outmoded Theory of Evolution Points to DNA from Space, 1.7 Billion Stars and Planets in Milky Way Galaxy, Trump Floats Idea of ‘Space Force’, Moon Object and Bigfoot Seen in New Jersey
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over California, Florida, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Texas and Washington.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Australia, Canada, France, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The US Air Force investigated UFOs publicly for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
Major George Filer Editor of The National UFO Center, would like to invite join him in Mt Shasta this summer July 27-29th 2018. He will present a wonderful program at the “From Venus with Love” conference.
Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.
Special Projects
General Walter Bedell Smith and UFOs
General Smith was CIA Director, 1950-1953 stated, “The Central Intelligence Agency has reviewed the current situation concerning unidentified flying objects which have crated extensive speculation in the press and have been the subject of concern to government organizations… Since 1947, approximately 2,000 official reports of sightings have been received, and, of these, about 20% are as yet unexplained. It is my view that this situation has possible implications for our national security which transcend the interests of a single service. A broader, coordinated effort should be initiated to develop a firm scientific understanding of the several phenomena which apparently are involved in these reports.”
General Smith also established a permanent system for providing intelligence support to the White House. Besides the Office of Current Intelligence (OCI), which prepared material for Smith’s weekly briefings of President Truman, he launched the new Current Intelligence Bulletin and the Current Intelligence Weekly Review. He tailored these publications for the President and senior policymakers.
UFOs Fly Over D.C.
On July 19-20 and July 26-27, 1952. two major UFO sightings occurred over Washington D. C. Fighter pilots revealed they had been given orders to shoot the UFO’s down. Not ever revealed to the public was that at least one fighter aircraft had been lost from Dover Air Force Base, Delaware.
Papers were showing front page photos of the UFOs and detailing eye witness reports of the craft. On July 29, 1952. a news conference was held in the Pentagon in an effort to convince both the media and the public that the sightings of these two nights were nothing more than temperature inversions.
General Samford (shown) knew all along that the cover story he was giving to the media was untrue to calm the situation. Samford suggested possible temperature inversions and pointed out there were no real measurements of the objects.
Major Fournet was briefing the Director of Central Intelligence that there was no conclusion as to what had caused the sightings over D.C. Some felt the UFO’s were Soviet probably built by the thousands of Nazi scientists deported to the Soviet Union after World War II. Major Fournet later advised the Robertson Panel that he, among others in the Pentagon, had concluded that these sightings were of extraterrestrial origin under intelligent control (January 14-17, 1953).
Several declassified document clearly show that a major movement was underway in Washington, D.C. to take UFO’s very seriously. The Director of Central Intelligence Agency (D/Cia) was “forced” to brief the National Security Council (Nsc) of the need to issue an Intelligence Directive (Nscdd), to get all of the intelligence community involved with ufo research and investigations.
Unfortunately the CIA created a white-wash in the form of the “Robertson Panel” that doomed the “official” briefing of the nsc, thus ending any hope of any “real” scientific and open-minded investigation of ufo reports/sightings.
However, one item remained very real, very serious and presented a “potential” threat to the very heart of the American Government and the intelligence community. We now know that UFO’s could come and go at will, even over the nation’s capital and we were powerless to do anything about it. Now for the first time since the end of wwii the Washington, d.c. Civil Defense took on an all new priority and the need to know how effective it would be in an emergency became a major concurrence.
TR-3B
In his book Sekret Machines, Tom DeLonge that is allegedly fiction it tells of corporate involvement in developing a secret space program involving the USAF. According to him, a global consortium of corporations secretly funded the development of TR-3B ‘flying triangles’ using antigravity and torsion field principles adopted from experiments conducted by Nazi Germany, and later reverse engineered by the USAF.
Apparently a squadron of TR-3B’s from 12 to 20 aircraft are based out of Area 51’s highly secretive S-4 facility at Papoose Lake. The US Air Force Space Command and Defense Intelligence Agency is in charge of the TR-3B or ‘Locust’, according to Delonge, as relayed by his advisory team, which we now know includes General McCasland. The craft can fly at mach 5 (3000 miles per hour) and above faster than most missiles. North Korea is likely seeing these craft flying over almost daily. Even if they try to shoot the TR-3b down it only needs to accelerate and climb higher. This craft plus B-1 bombers flying along the coast, and anti-missile unit deployments likely helped Kim Jong Un decide he preferred peace and to rebuild his country like South Korea. He also realized the United States was not backing down like before.
The craft is capable of operating near the Earth’s surface as a conventional aircraft like the SR-71, but can operate in near Earth orbit as a spacecraft. DeLong suggests different sized Locust vehicles, with the largest being several hundred feet across.
Col. Steve Wilson, USAF, now deceased was the director of Skywatch International and I had been the Vice President and he provided information from his sources. He claimed the X-33A was an antigravity aerospace platform Two successor aerospace craft are the Nautilus and the Spirit of Mankind. in 2011, NASA’s Technology Applications Assessment Team presented a. Multi-Mission Space Exploration Vehicle concept. Allegedly Airbus is a major builder of the “Nautilus” with Boeing working on the rounded delta shaped with mag.pulse propulsion. The advanced craft have been around since 19’88 and come/go bi-weekly from Utah. They provide supplies to the International Space Station. Nautilus is going to be overhauled into the new long distance craft with a new project name called “Spirit of Mankind” This was line item #95-678291 on Congress nasa request year 1995, and approved for over a billion to develop and send it out there with deep space camera’s and other instruments.
There is a concept for an Advanced Electromagnetic Vehicle that can manipulate space-time as observed in the UFO Phenomenon. To The Stars Head of Aerospace and Technology Steve Justice, and Former. Director of Advanced Programs at Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works, aims to lead a group of elite aerospace engineers to bring this technology to the world.”
U.S. Forest Service UFO Files
The UFO files of the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) have been declassified. There are 20 pages in the files, and although there is a dubious claim about the construction of a secret alien base and an unconvincing UFO photos, there is an interesting UFO report from U.S. Air Force personnel at a radar station in Montana.
The Forest Service UFO files were obtained via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by John Greenewald. Greenewald runs TheBlackVault.com, a site that houses over one million declassified files obtained via FOIA requests.
Greenewald says he made the request in November, 2016 and received the files in February, 2017
The first report in the file is a letter and photographs from a man who says he caught something “very strange” in a photograph he took while visiting Lost Twin Lakes in Bighorn National Forest. The witness says he did not see or hear anything unusual while taking the picture, but he noticed an odd object in one of the photos when he reviewed them later. He speculates that perhaps it is a drone, but also says he did some research and did not find any drones that looked like the object in the image.

The photograph was taken at about 2:30 pm on September 12, 2015.

It is hard to make out what exactly the object in the image is, but the USFS files did not include a high resolution image. Greenewald says he did inquire if higher resolution images were available, but they were not.
Without better images, this blob of light and shadows could be anything, and is likely a bird in flight. Often vacation photos with weird objects that were not noted at the time of their taking turn out to be birds or bugs that look strange in photographs once they are reviewed back home.
The USFS did not include their response to the UFO photo, or if they responded at all.
UFO Sighting at Yaak Air Force Station in Kootenai National Forest
Following the UFO photos letter and was a copy of an article regarding Yaak Air Base. According to the article, Yaak Air Base was in operation from April, 1952 to July, 1960, as part of a number of stations throughout the country that served as an early warning system during the cold war in case of a potential Russian attack. The base was near Yaak, Montana, in the Kootenai National Forest. Location of Yaak Air Base as described in the article. (Credit: Google Maps)For our purposes, the most interesting paragraph in the article is the last, and in the file provided to Greenewald, is highlighted in yellow.
It reads: The Yaak Radar Station also had its share of mystery, on Sept. 1 , 1952, Yaak, Montana. 4:45 am: Two USAF enlisted men, and three men using AN/FPS-3 radar set. Report visually sighting two small, varicolored lights becoming black silhouettes at dawn, and flying erratically for one hour. The crew at the radar station saw a, “dark, cigar shaped object,” right where the radar had the UFO pinpointed. What these people saw is a mystery to this day.
Alien Base Construction in Tonto National Forest
The most sensational claim in the files, and the one picked up by UK tabloids, is a report of a secret government installation being constructed that has something to do with aliens. The subject of the report is “Secret government installation being built in the Salt River Canyon area on the TNF [Tonto National Forest].”
Area of alleged construction of secret government base.
Ancient Cliff Dwellings in Tonto Forest
Here is a report regarding the call that was taken by David of the Forest Service on the morning of December 30, 2013 regarding UFOs, aliens and one detached head.
David received a call this morning at the front desk from a male caller reporting the construction of a secret government installation upstream from the Salt River Canyon past Pinal Creek (upstream from Roosevelt Lake). Aliens and at least one detached head are involved.
Caller claims to have seen construction cranes coming out the side of the cliffs, miniature stealth planes and UFOs, aliens and people working together at the site. He found a severed head and claims to have pictures of some of this stuff.
Caller reported that he is 60, not crazy, and doesn’t do drugs. He said he had already called the “office at the lake,” but he didn’t know if those people were turning the other cheek or maybe those people have been paid off.
Editor’s Note: Several Forest Rangers have phoned from Oregon and Washington and told me personally they had frequently seen UFOs and claimed they passed the information on to the Ranger Tower in the path of the UFO. The next Ranger Tower would confirm what they saw passing over. They usually saw disk and also lights. They saw a disk with a large animal underneath.
Outmoded Theory of Evolution Points to DNA from Space
Enzymes are proteins of high molecular weight that mathematically could not happen by chance.
Sir Fred Hoyle and Professor Wickramasinghe write:
“Biochemical systems are exceedingly complex, so much so, that the chance of their being formed through random shuffling of simple organic molecules is exceedingly minute, to a point where it is insensibly different from zero.” (F. Hoyle and C. Wickramasinghe, Evolution From Space. Dent, p. 3)
They explain that there are perhaps 1080 (10, followed by 80 zeroes) atoms in the universe and 1017 seconds have elapsed since the alleged ‘big bang’. The number of independent enzymes necessary for life is about 2,000. The probability of building just one of these enzymes cannot be better than one in 1,040,000. This outrageously small probability could not be faced, even if the whole universe consisted of organic soup. If one is not prejudiced either by social beliefs or by a scientific training that life originated on Earth,(by evolution) this simple calculation wipes the idea entirely out of court.” (Ibid, p. 24)
Fred Hoyle, writing in New Scientist, repeated that 2,000 different and very complex enzymes are required for a living organism to exist. Then he added that not a single one of these could be formed by random, shuffling processes in even 20 billion years! Our existence on earth is as if we had won a million-dollar lottery a million times in a row.
AMINO ACIDS: IMPOSSIBLE ODDS
There are 20 amino acids. There are 300 amino acids in a specialized sequence in each medium protein. There are billions upon billions of possible combinations! The right combination from among the 20 amino acids would have to be brought together in the right sequence in order to make one useable protein. The possible arrangements of the 20 amino acids is 2,500,000,000,000,000,000.
If evolutionary theory is true, every protein arrangement in a life form has to be worked out by chance until it works right – first one combination and then another until one is found that works right. But by then the organism will have long been dead, if it ever had been alive! It’s a good thing an evolutionist is not a mathematician because he would realize how unrealistic his attempted explanations are.
ALL NEED TO EXIST TOGETHER, INSTANTLY!
Now would you please consider this carefully:* DNA only works because it has enzymes to help it. * Enzymes work only because there are protein chains. * Protein works only because of DNA. * DNA only works because it is formed of protein chains.
So DNA enzymes… and protein ALL have to be there together, immediately, at the same time. There’s no other way! That complexity cannot be reduced to anything simpler! Let’s say that again: * The enzymes only work because the protein chains are coded in a special sequence by an already existing DNA. * DNA can only replicate with the help of already existing protein enzymes. Do you see the problem? We are really in a chicken and egg situation.
So what do you think? Might it be time we stopped believing in a mid-19th century theory that was devised when almost nothing was known about proteins, genetics, or microbiology? Some people are already calling evolution theory a hoax. Okay, you might think that’s going too far, but let’s face it, you and I will still need to come up with some plausible answers to questions like these: * How does new information evolve? * How did two separate species which are 100 interdependent, evolve simultaneously? (There are many examples of this.) * How did a living cell suddenly appear. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiySnxiv1J0 ENZYMES:

Gaia’s all-sky view of our Milky Way Galaxy and neighboring galaxies, based on measurements of nearly 1.7 billion stars. (ESA/Gaia/DPAC)
Jason Daley writes in 2016, the European Space Agency released the first data set from its Gaia satellite, which is tasked with surveying stars to create a detailed 3-D map of our quadrant of the Milky Way. Over 1 billion stars twinkled in those first images, which included detailed data on 2 million of the stars. Today, ESA released an even more mind-blowing batch of Gaia data encompassing 1.7 billion stars including incredible detail on almost every speck of light.
As Ryan F. Mandelbaum at Gizmodo reports, compared to the initial survey, which included stars some 500 light years away, the latest round of data includes twinkles as far as 8,000 light years out, with a precision 100 times more accurate. Gaia surveyed the sky for 22 months between July 2014 and May 2016 to gather the new dataset.
According to the ESA, the catalog, now available to professionals and amateur astronomers, includes data on the positions and brightness for 1.7 billion stars, the parallax (an effect in which an object appears in different positions depending the viewer’s position) and motion of 1.3 billion stars, surface temperature for over 100 million stars and the effect of interstellar dust on 87 million stars.
President Trump mused again Tuesday about adding a new branch of the military — a Space Force — and this time made clear he is thinking seriously about it.
Trump aired his thoughts during a ceremony at the White House, where he presented the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy to the U.S. Military Academy’s Black Knights football team for its victories over Navy and Air Force.
Surrounded by West Point cadets in the Rose Garden, Trump talked up the mission they have ahead.
“You will be part of the five proud branches of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and the Coast Guard,” Trump said.
After a short pause he continued: “And we’re actually thinking of a sixth, and that would be the Space Force. Does that make sense? . . . Because we’re getting very big in space, both militarily and for other reasons. And we are seriously thinking of the Space Force.”
Trump previously raised the idea during a speech in March at Air Station Miramar in San Diego.
“My new national strategy for space recognizes that space is a war-fighting domain, just like the land, air and sea,” Trump told the crowd of Marines there. “We have the Air Force. We’ll have the Space Force.”
Initially, Trump explained, he had proposed the idea as a joke: “Then I said, ‘What a great idea. Maybe we’ll have to do that.’ ”
Some lawmakers on the House Armed Services strategic-forces subcommittee have been pushing to add a unit to the Air Force that would be dedicated to space, but they have stopped short of endorsing a new branch as proposed by Trump.
The Outer Space Treaty, which the United States signed in 1967, bars states from testing weapons and establishing military bases on the moon and other celestial bodies. It also prohibits the placement of weapons of mass destruction in orbit around Earth.
However, critics have pointed out that, since the treaty has no enforcement mechanism, nothing is really stopping a president or anyone else from militarizing space
Moon Object
I found something in the right upper corner of one of a photo taken of the moon on April 24, 2018, at 1:59 AM.. The size and motion are unknown. The direction was in the western sky. I am not sure of the color. Zooming in I saw something in right upper corner of the photo so I made a copy and playing with the exposure this is what I found.
Note: It is difficult to say what the object is in front of the moon. It could be bird or insect. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Bigfoot Seen in New Jersey
As a scientist, I have rarely heard other scientists mention or discuss demons as an explanation for paranormal and supernatural phenomena. I have also rarely heard UFOlogists try to explain biblical angels of God as demons. Supposedly, if alien visitors kidnap and harm abductees without their permission, they are called demons. If they do so with our permission and help and/or heal us, they are called angels of God. In human wars between nations, the enemy is always demonized, and that behavior is linked to taking without permission and harming us for their gain. What do our souls have to do with this, other than providing a choice of which side you pledge allegiance to? Is there an unseen objective? Zoom out and study the forest instead of the bark on the closest tree. Just because demons have been recorded by our ancestors for millennia, and there is evidence that alien visitors have been on Earth for much longer, does not mean that this is a local phenomenon limited to Earth. . Thanks to MUFON CMS A couple walking their dog in the notorious Pine Barrens of New Jersey may have had a brief encounter with Bigfoot.
The sighting, which took place last month near the town of Browns Mills, was reported to the Bigfoot Field Research Organization by a pair of witnesses who used only their first names, Dave and Tricia.
According to them, they were initially unnerved by a strange musty odor that they could not identify and left them so unsettled that they actually went back to their car and drove away from the area.
Shortly thereafter, Tricia looked in the rear view mirror and spotted “something brown on two legs and about six feet tall sprint behind the car.”
When they quickly reversed the vehicle and went back to where the anomaly had appeared, Dave heard “branches snapping and a splash into the water.”
On the drive home, the couple debated what it was that they had encountered and pondered if it could have been a bear or a person, but Tricia was certain that it was bipedal and seemingly covered in fur.
To their credit, they not only submitted their report to the BFRO the very next day, but actually agreed to be interviewed by an investigator and even took him out to the spot where the sighting took place.
Unfortunately, a fairly thorough search of the area failed to yield any evidence of the encounter, but the BFRO investigator who met with the couple found their account to be credible based on his interaction with them.
As one can imagine, the seemingly incongruous connection between Bigfoot and New Jersey has resulted in some ridicule about the story by mainstream media outlets yearning to make jokes about Sasquatch and Snooki.
However it’s not altogether unlikely that the wilderness of the Pine Barrens very well could be home to the creature and the couple’s description of feeling uneasy about a musky scent is in keeping with countless tales of Bigfoot sightings, suggesting that this may have been a genuine creature encounter.
What do you think Dave and Tricia saw in the forest? Let us know at the Coast to Coast AM Facebook page.

UFO Sightings in the United States
California Object
I was outside working and taking pictures for work. I felt the need, like a call to take a picture above my head even though I did not see anything with the naked eye on March 11, 2017. The picture was only of the blue sunny sky above me. Later when I downloaded the picture and zoomed in I saw several crafts. But one in particular is very clear, donut light, with appendages on the bottom, what looks like a front single light and what looks like a central depression in the middle of the donut shaped craft. The picture taken is unmistakable on March 17, 2017 at Latitude 36.78247 Longitude119.41207
I researched shapes of weather balloons, probes and various research related machineries and none resembles the one in my picture. Since then I took sky pics and caught many round shaped metallic orbs, reflecting sunlight. Most appear silver globes but when I catch them behind the direct sunlight they appear to have a black horizontal window on the middle of them and look more oval shaped than round. One time I saw a huge flat disc with the naked eye and took also a picture. It is not a plane, no wings. Predominant factor is how slow it flew and wanted to be captured in the picture because as soon as I did it, it zoomed away in an instant. . My canon XS shot has a powerful zoom,
Not sure if of relevance but in fall 2011 a 3 dot triangular shaped scar appeared on my left knee. Overnight. I went to bed without and I woke with it. And since then it never disappeared. The dots at times are redder or swollen at times flat but always present. I measured the distance and it forms a perfect isosceles triangle with 15 mm distance between each dot. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Object
Westminster— I observed what I can best describe as a diamond shaped black object on May 10, 2018. It looked like an inflated black trash bag. The object appears to be approximately 2000 feet above the ground maybe less. I observed the silent object through a pair of binoculars and took video with an iPhone. The object was traveling north against the wind over Standley lake and continuing on a pattern that would take it over Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport. The object appeared to have a silver object hanging below the main body. The object was black in color but had a shiny surface. I watched for 15 minutes. I estimate the object size is that of a single engine Cessna aircraft may be larger. I do have video and screen capture pictures that show relatively good detail of the object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Lights
Orange Park— On May 8, 2018 my husband. our friend and I walked to her car and looked up. There it was flashing red and green with no noise.. I think it was too big for a drone. Last night I went out and there were 5. One big one right over the trees. No colors, just brilliant white lights. But it had one red and green lights to its left, two other red and green guys on his right. If I looked straight up, there was one. To the left was big bright Jupiter. I stayed out there for about an hour and 20 minutes and watched them with my daughter. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Michigan Object
Michigan City— I was arriving at Washington Park around 3 pm on May 10, 2018. I took a photo through the windshield of my car just 39 miles NW of Chicago. I sent it to my friend who asked what was that object in the distance?. I never noticed it until he pointed it out so it had to have been far out into the lake. Once I zoomed in it looked huge for the size and distance compared to the lighthouse? It looks to be too big to be a bird in flight. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Nevada Lights
Reno — I had just arrived home from work around midnight from May 4 going into May 5. 2018. As I walked up my driveway, I looked at the sky over my house. Low in the sky, over my neighborhood in South Reno, I saw a bright red light in the sky toward the west and a little north. It was much too big to be a star or planet, over the city. The light seemed more to radiate heat or energy. It wasn’t a steady solid “light bulb” type of light. This wasn’t a plane or helicopter and simply remained a light. It was silent. It moved, sometimes hovering, from north to south, before moving up at a 45-degree angle and dimming out high in the sky and disappeared, Three more identical objects appeared. Two of these lights traveled as a pair, a little higher in the sky than the first one, and the third lagged a little lower than the others. There was no noise, This made me pretty nervous.

New Jersey Lights
I was taking pictures of the stars and I thought that I saw a blue flash, of light on May 7, 2018. I just started snapping pictures (without the flash) and when I uploaded them I noticed that two of the pictures had a blue square in them, I enlarged them to see what the blue square was. I don’t know if it’s a UFO, space station a camera glitch or something else? I just find it to be very strange, in the second picture you can see that whatever it is changed direction.

Texas Cross
Fort Worth– I was sitting on the back porch watching when I saw the object in the sky and grabbed camera to video on April 30. 3018. I got an almost two minute video of the object as it moved south with the wind. It was 500-1000 feet up. At first, I assumed it was a balloon since it made carried with the strong winds at the time. After viewing the video, I am no longer convinced it was a balloon. The object changed shape many times in the two minutes. It clearly changes shape and the proportions for the basic T shaped object change dramatically. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Disc
Ferndale — My mom was driving from my aunt’s house to come back to ours on May 8, 2018. My mom pointed it out to my family and said that she saw something strange. The UFO was moving very fast, moving approx. 100 feet in 30 seconds. I honestly felt really scared, but also shocked when I noticed it was an actual UFO, I was thinking about how it can probably abduct people. I lost sight of the object by driving away from it because our family had to get home. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Triangle
Mt Gravatt East — I was told there was to be a meteor shower visible from Brisbane between 3 and 3.30 AM, I set my camera on a tripod in the yard and aimed NE with my telephoto lens, I took over five shots with 30 second exposure, These orbs remained in the same spot but moved to form different shapes. They changed from large glob like shape to a stretched out horizontal V. They are clearly visible and a better view when zoom in. I believe they were stationary as the orbs didn’t blur.

Canada Lights
Edmonton — Caught in night Cam on May 2, 2018. at my home in Oshawa, Ontario. I was outside having tea after 9:05 pm on April 30, 2018, and noticed a slow low dim white light appearing and disappearing. I watched it move from south to north almost directly above heading straight north. Then 20 minutes later I looked directly above to see another one heading towards Lake Ontario. Once outside again after 11: 00 pm, I see another one over Whitby township. It was near 11:30 pm and again saw bright ‘ pulses ‘ of white bright light over head. Thanks to Paul Shishis
France Lights
In August, I used to watch the sky and mechanically I grabbed my cell phone, Samsung S6 edge when I saw lights, I turned on the video and I was immediately attracted by bright spots. Then I zoomed in on these points to find that these points had symmetry in them. Seconds that followed, the luminous points dissociated, the point at the extreme right moved quite rapidly towards a diagonal. While the bright point on the extreme left is directed horizontally towards the center point in a straight line to stop over the latter. This bright spot coming from the left side changed direction and quickly left on the left side. The bright spots move in an unusual way and in opposite directions to each other,
Fighter jets can be heard at 25 seconds in the video, oddly, the points disappear very quickly, at 40 seconds we hear perfectly the fighter planes as well as their flashing lights typical of hunting planes at night. This is directly after having seen this luminous triangle and the way in which these objects manifested and moved,
as well as the very fast arrival of the fighter planes convinced me to be in the presence of a phenomenon of unidentified objects peculiar to UFOs. We are several kilometers from an air base at Toulouse, what surprised me is the speed with which fighter planes have come to hunt for these unidentified objects. A cylinder was connecting with another ball less important but not less bright ball. This photo is the left most ball at the time of viewing of the beginning of the video? Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mexico Lights
Tijuana — I was talking with a neighbor about a tool for the car when he suddenly told me to look at the sky. We saw the glowing light on the sky. I knew I needed to get my camera so told my neighbor to keep an eye on it so we did not miss it, got to my camera and shot the pics and video. When looking at the images we took it seems to be an group of orbs being altogether or surrounding something. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Puerto Rico Object
San Juan — Been thinking about this photo for several years. Not until after we got back to the states from Puerto Rico did we see that there was a saucer hovering above us in the sky.
Any further explanation would be super helpful. It always stumped us!

UK Objects
Middlesbrough — Whilst walking home from a friend’s house around 7pm, on April 25, 2018, I noticed some dark objects in the sky. At first I thought it was a flock of birds but soon noticed that it looked like some sort of military plane flaying in a slightly curved path followed by four small, round objects. I got my phone out and started recording. I observed them for one minute before losing sight of them in the distance. There was the sound of a plane as it passed by. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Liverpool – On May 3, 2018, I took a picture of a rainbow and this was on it.

AFPOctopus Paul werd wereldberoemd tijdens het WK voetbal in Zuid-Afrika in 2010 door zijn pronostieken.
DIERENEen groep internationale wetenschappers stelt dat het best kan dat inktvissen op een andere planeet dan de aarde zijn ontstaan. Ze sluiten niet uit dat de exemplaren die we vandaag kennen, afstammen van wezens die bevroren in een ijskomeet op de aarde terechtkwamen.
Inktvissen zijn een aparte soort op aarde. “Hun grote brein en gesofisticeerd zenuwstelsel, hun camera-achtige ogen, hun flexibele lichamen, hun instant camouflage doordat ze van kleur en vorm kunnen veranderen, het zijn maar een paar opvallende kenmerken die in het evolutiescenario heel plots verschijnen”, schrijven de onderzoekers in hun paper, gepubliceerd in Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology. Ze opperen de mogelijkheid dat deze “grote sprong voorwaarts” te danken is aan “cryopreservatie van inktvissen en/of octopuseieren” die miljoenen jaren geleden via kometen in de oceaan zijn neergestort.
gettyDe octopus heeft 'zelfdenkende' armen, omdat hij, naast een centraal brein in de kop, ook acht kleinere breintjes in de tentakels heeft.
“Het bewijs van de rol van buitenaardse virussen bij de beïnvloeding van de evolutie op aarde bleek recentelijk plausibel vervat in het gen en de transcriptome sequencing van inktvissen”, schrijven de onderzoekers. “Het genoom van de octopus vertoont een duizelingwekkende complexiteit met 33.000 eiwit-coderende genen. Dat is meer dan bij de homo sapiens.”
Evolutionair liggen octopussen gigantisch ver van ons af. Vooral het feit dat ze zichzelf kunnen ‘ombouwen’ is straf en ongezien in de rest van de dierenwereld. Normaal evolueert een soort door veranderingen in het DNA, die de soort ten goede komen. Maar de erg complexe en intelligente weekdieren kunnen hun RNA - waarvan de chemische structuur deels vergelijkbaar is met die van het DNA - zelf wijzigen, wat ze ook geregeld doen. Die unieke handigheid betekent wel dat inktvissen nog nauwelijks evolueren. En omdat het op aarde verder onbestaande is, ligt ook een buitenaardse verklaring op de loer.
Wetenschappers opperen al langer de mogelijkheid dat het leven op aarde beïnvloed is door buitenaards leven en zelfs dat alles wat we nu kennen niet op onze aarde is ontstaan, maar uit organismen uit de ruimte. Dat is de hypothese die panspermie genoemd wordt. Dat kan niet bewezen worden, omdat er nog nooit buitenlands leven is aangetroffen. Het kan ook niet wetenschappelijk tegengesproken worden.
REUTERSOctopussen zijn erg slim en kunnen bijvoorbeeld zelf een pot opendraaien.
DIERENZo’n 160 kilometer van de westkust van Costa Rica hebben wetenschappers een tot nu toe onbekende octopussoort ontdekt. De dieren leven op maar liefst 3.000 meter diepte in temperaturen waarvan werd gedacht dat ze er eigenlijk niet in konden overleven.
Diepzeebiologen zijn verbluft door de beelden van de paarse dieren, een nieuwe ondersoort van het genus Muuscoctopus. Ze werden in 2013 aangetroffen toen wetenschappers monsters van het water uit hydrothermische openingen wilden verzamelen in de Dorado-rotsformatie, een gebied dat gevormd werd door gestolde lava.
Ongeveer honderd van de octopussen zaten samen, terwijl ze normaal gezien eenzaten zijn. Het ging om moederdieren die hun eieren bewaakten, een tragische situatie omdat ze slechts een keer in hun leven eieren produceren. Ze maken die dan vast aan een rots of een andere vaste structuur, en sterven snel nadat hun nakomelingen wegzwemmen.
Normaal gezien zouden de octopussen niet kunnen overleven in de buurt van de vulkanische openingen, zegt Janet Voight, coauteur van het onderzoek Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers dat eind maart verscheen. Dankzij het warme water ontwikkelen de embryo’s zich wel sneller, maar daardoor hebben ze ook meer zuurstof nodig. En die is slechts in mondjesmaat beschikbaar in de buurt van de openingen, legt Voight uit. “Ik zie niet in hoe ze ooit kunnen overleven.” Na een onderzoek van 186 eitjes op de beelden, vond ze geen enkel met een embryo in ontwikkeling.
Holtes en spleten
En dat leidt tot de vraag: waarom kozen de octopussen zo’n rotslechte plaats om hun eitjes te plaatsen? Voight denkt dat een groot deel van de Dorado-rotsformatie mogelijk een geweldige plaats is om een octopusfamilie groot te brengen, met ideale locaties om eieren te leggen in scheuren en spleten in de verharde lava. De onderzoekers zagen inderdaad armen van octopussen uit scheuren komen, wat suggereert dat in holtes binnenin nog dieren zitten in koeler water met meer zuurstof. Dat melden Geoff Wheat, een geochemicus aan de universiteit van Alaska Fairbanks die twee expedities naar de rotsformatie leidde, en hoofdonderzoekster Anne Hartwell, een oceanografe verbonden aan de university van Akron in Ohio en de university van Alaska Fairbanks.
Mogelijk waren deze toplocaties dus volzet, en waren deze moederdieren genoodzaakt een veel slechtere kinderkamer te kiezen. Het is ook mogelijk dat de scheuren niet zo actief waren toen de octopussen hun eieren legden, en dat het warme water en het lagere zuurstofgehalte pas later zijn gekomen, meent Mindy Weisberger van LiveScience.

Opwindend
De ‘gedoemde’ kinderkamer van de octopussen blijft voorlopig dus een mysterie, maar biedt wetenschappers een opwindende blik op tot nog toe ongezien octopusgedrag. “Deze fascinerende ontdekking toont ook aan hoe weinig we weten over het oceaanleven weten”, aldus Voight.
Wheat besluit ook dat nog veel te leren valt over de dieptes van de oceanen. “Dit is pas het derde dergelijke hydrothermische systeem dat onderzocht werd, terwijl de diepzee nog miljoenen gelijkaardige omgevingen bevat. Welke andere opmerkelijke ontdekkingen staan ons nog te wachten?”

Legendarische verloren stad per toeval ontdekt. Deze oude kleitabletten gaven de locatie prijs
Legendarische verloren stad per toeval ontdekt. Deze oude kleitabletten gaven de locatie prijs
Archeologen hebben de locatie van een verloren Mesopotamische stad ontdekt. Ze hebben kleitabletten gevonden die de naam van de oude stad prijsgaven.
Mardaman was een belangrijke stad in het oude Nabije Oosten, maar niemand wist waar de legendarische stad zich bevond. Daar is nu verandering in gekomen.
Kleitabletten (Peter Pfälzner)
Duitse archeologen voeren al enkele jaren opgravingen uit in het noorden van Iraaks Koerdistan.
Bewaren voor het nageslacht
Per toeval stuitten ze in de ruïnes van een paleis op 92 kleitabletten die verstopt waren in een kruik. De tabletten bleken de naam van een oude stad te bevatten: Mardaman.
De kruik waarin de tabletten zaten was ingepakt in een dikke laag klei, wat erop wijst dat de inwoners van de stad wilden dat de tabletten bewaard zouden blijven.
“Misschien was het de bedoeling de informatie op de tabletten te beschermen en te bewaren voor het nageslacht,” zei professor Peter Pfälzner van de Universiteit van Tübingen.
Invloedrijke stad
Mardaman was een invloedrijke stad en een regionaal koninkrijk tussen Mesopotamië, Anatolië en Syrië, aldus Pfälzner.
Het is voor het eerst dat er grootschalig wetenschappelijk onderzoek plaatsvindt in Mardaman.
Eerder werden al wel wat overblijfselen uit de stad gevonden, waaronder een koperen beeld van een naakte figuur dat na de Amerikaanse invasie van Irak in 2003 verdween tijdens de plunderingen, maar later weer werd teruggevonden.
Chalk it up to the conspiracy theorist in me, but sometimes I think NASA removed Pluto’s distinction as a planet so they wouldn’t have to say they’ve found proof of “Planet X.” It sounds less threatening to say “Planet Nine,” especially when there’s recent news of more evidence for a large, mysterious planet at the far edge of our solar system. Scientists are quick to say that this is not proof of Nibiru or any of the wild “Planet X” theories, but it is more strong evidence that a planet with 10 times the mass of Earth might hide just out of sight.
Astronomer David Gerdes of the University of Michigan is part of a team that published a journal article on May 14, 2018 which describes the strange orbit of a possible dwarf planet beyond Neptune. This mysterious extra-solar object seems to orbit the sun at a 54 degree angle away from the orbital plane of the other planets in our solar system. The object was found using data from the Dark Energy Survey, which seeks to measure the expansion of the universe via a probe high above (or below, it is space after all) the solar system. There shouldn’t be anything there, but although Gerdes’ team did not expect to find it, the strange deep-space object was precisely predicted by two astronomers at the California Institute of Technology, Konstantin Batygin and Michael Brown, who, in 2016, first argued for the existence of another giant planet in our solar system.
Batygin and Brown surveyed a group of objects in the Kupier Belt and found that their orbits all tended to converge on the same quadrant of space. They argued that since this is extremely unlikely to occur on it’s own, there must be a a gravitational force pulling on the orbits of the Kupier belt objects. Specifically, the mass of something 10 times the size of Earth.
Using computer simulations, and Brown were able to predict what other effects this mysterious “Planet Nine” would have. They predicted that the Kupier Belt objects would slowly be pulled into a perpendicular orbit with the rest of the solar system, an orbit the object found by Gerdes and his team seems to be moving towards. Michael Brown says:
“There’s no real way to put something on an orbit like that—except that it’s exactly what we predicted from Planet Nine.”
Our solar system orbits the sun on one plane. The new object has a perpendicular orbit to that plane.
How spot on were Batygin and Brown’s predictions? Konstantin Batygin says the object found by David Gerdes fits with their model so well it could pass as one of their simulation’s data points. Batygin says:
“A good theory reproduces data, but a great theory predicts new data.”
While this isn’t absolute proof of “Planet Nine,” the fact that this weird object’s orbit was so precisely predicted by Batygin and Brown’s model is pretty amazing. At the very least it suggests their argument might hold water and should be studied further.
Just remember, if Pluto was still a planet we wouldn’t be talking about “Planet Nine,” we’d be talking about “Planet X.” Checkmate, NASA.
Mystery Flash and Boom recorded on Ohio Security Cameras
Mystery Flash and Boom recorded on Ohio Security Cameras
For weeks concerned residents of Anderson Township have heard and seen explosions and flashes that are not from fireworks, sonic booms, or other sources.
On April 21 multiple callers reported a loud boom, according to communications center records and on may 12 it happened again. Steve Hart captured one such blast on his security cams.
The sounds are "true booms, they sound like a powerful explosion and it's unlike anything I've ever seen or felt before and I've been very up close with the WEBN Fireworks many times” Anderson Township resident Kimberly Kempke said to Cincinnati.news.
It appears as though both times the loud booms were heard on a Saturday evening approximately one month apart, but the source of the flashes and booms remain a mystery.
Because it sucks in so much gas, this black hole appears ultra-luminous. If it sat at the center of our Milky Way, we’d see it shining 10 times more brightly than a full moon.
Astronomers announced on May 15, 2018, that they’ve identified the fastest-growing black hole yet known in the universe. They describe it as a monster that devours a mass equivalent to our sun every two days. They spied this black hole – which is also known as an ultra-luminous quasar – while looking back more than 12 billion years to what are called the cosmic dark ages of our universe.
At that time, this supermassive black hole was estimated to be the size of about 20 billion suns. It had a 1 percent growth rate every million years.
Christian Wolf of Australian National University (ANU) is lead author of the study of this object, which is labeled by the quasar name QSO SMSS~J215728.21-360215.1. Wolf said in a statement:
This black hole is growing so rapidly that it’s shining thousands of times more brightly than an entire galaxy, due to all of the gases it sucks in daily that cause lots of friction and heat.
If we had this monster sitting at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, it would appear 10 times brighter than a full moon. It would appear as an incredibly bright pin-point star that would almost wash out all of the stars in the sky.
The study is due to appear in the peer-reviewed journal Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia (PASA).
Artist’s rendering of the accretion disk of a supermassive black hole, located within a very distant quasar. Imagine this accretion disk much, much brighter, due to the great quantities of gas being sucked into the hole, and you’ll have the idea of the ultra-luminous system QSO SMSS~J215728.21-360215.1.
Wolf said the energy emitted from this newly-discovered supermassive black hole, also known as a quasar, was mostly ultraviolet light but also X-rays. He said:
Again, if this monster was at the center of the Milky Way it would likely make life on Earth impossible with the huge amounts of X-rays emanating from it.
These astronomers used the SkyMapper telescope at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia to detect the light of this object in the near-infrared. They needed to look in that realm of the electromagnetic spectrum because the light waves had red-shifted over the billions of light-years to Earth. Wolf said:
As the universe expands, space expands and that stretches the light waves and changes their color.
Wolf said that large and rapidly-growing black holes are exceedingly rare. He said he and his team have been searching for them with the SkyMapper telescope for several months now.
The European Space Agency’s Gaia satellite – an astrometry satellite, which measures tiny motions of celestial objects – also helped find this supermassive black hole. Wolf said the Gaia satellite confirmed the object that they had found was sitting still, meaning that it was far away. Thus it was a candidate to be a very large quasar.
The discovery of the new supermassive black hole was confirmed using the spectrograph on the ANU 2.3 meter telescope to split colors into spectral lines. Wolf said:
We don’t know how this one grew so large, so quickly in the early days of the universe. The hunt is on to find even faster-growing black holes.
Wolf also said that, as these kinds of black holes shine, they can be used as beacons to see and study the formation of elements in the early galaxies of the universe.
Scientists can see the shadows of objects in front of the supermassive black hole. Fast-growing supermassive black holes also help to clear the fog around them by ionizing gases, which makes the universe more transparent.
Astronomers used the SkyMapper telescope at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia in the search for large and rapidly-growing black holes. The Gaia satellite helped confirm its great distance from Earth.
Here’s A Detailed Look Into The Mysterious Osiris Shaft Beneath The Pyramids Of Giza
Here’s A Detailed Look Into The Mysterious Osiris Shaft Beneath The Pyramids Of Giza
f you travel to the Giza plateau, you should know that there are many incredible things to explore, in addition to the three main pyramids.
One such fantastic feature is the so-called Tomb of Osiris, or commonly referred to as the Osiris Shaft.
Located beneath the stone causeway of the Pyramid of Khafre, this enigmatic tomb is a mysterious structure composed of various intricately carved levels beneath the surface.
Despite the fact that its existence has been known for a few years, it wasn’t until recently that the structure was adequately excavated and documented.
In ancient times, the shaft was used by people as a swimming hole since it was filled with water.
Selim Hassan and his team were one of the first to explore the shaft in the 1930‘s, but it wasn’t until 1999 when the structure was fully excavated by Zahi Hawass. By 1999 the water levels at the Giza plateau had lowered to the point that a detailed excavation was possible.
Here is Selim Hassan’s description of the Osiris Shaft:
“Upon the surface of the causeway, they first built a platform in the shape of a mastaba, using stones taken from the ruins of the covered corridor of the causeway. In the centre of this superstructure, they sank a shaft, which passed through the roof and floor of the subway running under the causeway to a depth of about 9.00 m. At the bottom of this shaft is a rectangular chamber, in the floor of the eastern side of which is another shaft. This descends about 14.00 m. and terminates in a spacious hall surrounded by seven burial-chambers, in each of which is a sarcophagus. Two of these sarcophagi, which are of basalt and are monolithic, are so enormous that at first, we wondered if they contained the bodies of sacred bulls.”
It was revealed that the shaft is composed of three different levels.
The first level was found to be empty.
The second level is a tunnel that leads into a room with six other chambers carved out of the stone walls. Inside these chambers, researchers have recovered pottery sherds, ceramic beads, and ushabtis (small servant figurines).
Furthermore, basalt sarcophagi were found in Chambers C, D, and G; badly decomposed skeletal remains were found in the sarcophagi in Chambers C and G. Based on stylistic grounds the artifacts, sarcophagi included, date to Dynasty 26 (ibid: 386-87).
An overview of the Osiris Shaft.
In the lowest chamber of the Osiris shaft, some 30 meters below the surface lies a mystery described by Herodotus, which was written off as a myth by mainstream scholars.
However, it turned out that Herodotus was right all along, and mainstream scholars were wrong.
The lowest chamber of the shaft is a sort of subterraneanhall, and inside it lies a sarcophagus, perfectly preserved and empty. The third level of the Osiris Shaft is found to be more complex regarding design and architecture.
The most important discovery made in the third level of the Osiris Shaft was red-polished pottery, containing traces of white paint. Experts managed to date back the pottery remains to the 6thy dynasty, from the end of the Old Kingdom.
This means that the pottery recovered in the third level is, in fact, the oldest possible datable material in the entire complex.
Based on research and archeological evidence recovered throughout the years, the Osiris Shaft is believed to date originally from the Old Kingdom, more precisely to the Sixth Dynasty (2355-2195 BCE).
The Osiris shaft was opened to the public for the first time in 2017.
A magnificent insight into the mysterious shaft proving that despite the fact that we know a lot about ancient Egypt, there are many details we have still not uncovered.
Check out the video:
Brien Foerster and his team will return to the Giya plateau in April 2019. For more information check this out.
Astronomers observed an unknown object moving at four times the speed of light and emitting radio signals
Astronomers observed an unknown object moving at four times the speed of light and emitting radio signals
A neighboring galaxy, Messier 82, was found 8 years ago to be firing off radio waves at alarming speed.
Described as a starburst or cigar galaxy, M82 is about a dozen light years away. In 2010, the radio waves were observed at the Jodrell Bank Observatory in England. It is reportedly traveling at four times the speed of light. Unfortunately, it is yet to be identified.
It was considered that it could perhaps be a supernova, but this was deemed unlikely due to the fact that those emissions generally diminish after weeks while the unknown object has kept on strongly over time. Also, the UK telescope system MERLIN determined a change of direction which suggested it’s movement to be superluminal.
Scientists also determined it was in the wrong location for a black hole and therefore it was more likely to be a microquasar. Again, this idea was turned aside due to the fact that microquasar emit x-rays in massive numbers and the readings on x-rays did not support it.
"We don’t know what it is"
This leaves it as an unidentifiable object, although there is still the thought that it could be a black hole outside of the usual location for this phenomenon. One scientist, Dr. Paul LaViolette, determined that it may actually be a superwave, that is an emission of cosmic ray radiation that is moving quickly out of a nucleus. This superwave theory has been generally disregarded due to the notion that cosmic rays only follow a linear trajectory.
This particular scientist went on to determine that the origin of the radio waves is likely to be the core, and the emissions which are just reaching us visually now were likely from as much as 80 years ago. He speculates further on M82 itself, why it has such a high level of supernovae activity. He determines this may be due to a superwave or two traveling through the disc and setting off a chain reaction that causes these phenomena.
Dr. LaViolette is considered a “scientific rebel”. He has published many papers on Physics and Astronomy including his own Ph.D. dissertation that deals directly with superwaves. He addresses this subject again in other papers, specifically relating unusual supernova activity in the Milky Way with superwaves, and what is happening in M82, along with the effect on Earth and our solar system such waves can create.
His theory has not yet been accepted by the scientific community and therefore the unusual, speedy radio waves of the starburst galaxy remain classified as unknown.
Bright ball of light in extreme acceleration towards space, is seen in two UFO videos from 2010. The unknown object starts as a bright ball of light but ends up very dim on the top of the acceleration before it disappears.
The video above was uploaded by Youtube user ufowatcher5150 on May 14th 2010. See the video to end to see it accelerate.
Bright ball of light in extreme acceleration
This bright ball of light shows extreme acceleration that can not be done by our existing technology. Not as we know of. Some governments may have advanced technology in black projects that is not known to the public. Some of these could coincidentally end up on some of the many video camcorders out there.
The alternative explanation could be space aliens in their spaceship leaving earth. A more down to earth explanation would be some kind of meteorological phenomenon we don´t know about yet – just apart from what we can see in the video.
I have seen an object travel a lot faster than this refering to the UFO sighting, landing and first contact article. So I know by my own eyes, that there is a possibility for those who look up often, to see accelerations like these. The UFO in the video above accelerates to speeds way over what we are used to see in the skies.
Reaching speed of light towards space?
The UFO is seen reaching extreme speed supposedly towards space. Notice how the light from the object fades when it reaches a certain speed. Could this be because it reaches speed of light? No, this is not light speed.
Speed of light is much faster than this and the object would disappear immidiately. Speed of light is 299.792.458 meter per second, so it would just blink out and disappear. The distance to the Moon is for example 384.400.000 meters, so an object travelling with speed of light from Earth, would be at the Moon in 1,28 seconds. What we see here is not light speed.
Another UFO video from uploader
I found another UFO video from Youtube user ufowatcher5150 that also shows extreme acceleration. The footage is from the day after on May 15th 2010. It shows exactly the same, a big ball of light that accelerates to an extreme speed.
The second video above is also an acceleration. And it makes me a bit nervous, because isn´t it too good to be true to record this twice.!? The video has not been flipped horizontally and re-uploaded. It is indeed two different videos. Both videos with UFOs in extreme acceleration seems legit to me, but I cannot be 100% sure.

Strange Extraterrestrial Laser Signal Detected at the Heart of the Spectacular Ant Nebula
Strange Extraterrestrial Laser Signal Detected at the Heart of the Spectacular Ant Nebula
New data shows that the Ant Nebula beams intense laser emission from its core. Lasers are well-known down on earth in everyday life, from special visual effects in music concerts to health care and communications. In space, laser emission is detected at very different wavelengths and only under certain conditions. Only a few of these infrared space lasers are known.
An international team of astronomers have discovered an unusual laser emission that suggests the presence of a double star system hidden at the heart of the spectacular nebula. The extremely rare phenomenon is connected to the death of a star and was discovered in observations made by European Space Agency's (ESA) Herschel space observatory.
When low- to middleweight stars like our Sun approach the end of their lives they eventually become dense, white dwarf stars. In the process, they cast off their outer layers of gas and dust into space, creating a kaleidoscope of intricate patterns known as a planetary nebula. Our Sun is expected to one day form such a planetary nebula.
The recent Herschel observations have shown that the dramatic demise of the central star in the core of the Ant Nebula is even more theatrical than implied by its colourful appearance in visible images - such as those taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
By coincidence, astronomer Donald Menzel who first observed and classified this particular planetary nebula in the 1920s (it is officially known as Menzel 3 after him) was also one of the first to suggest that in certain conditions natural 'light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation' - from which the acronym 'laser' derives - could occur in nebulae in space. This was well before the discovery of lasers in laboratories.
Dr Isabel Aleman, lead author of a paper describing the new results, said "We detected a very rare type of emission called hydrogen recombination laser emission, which is only produced in a narrow range of physical conditions.
"Such emission has only been identified in a handful of objects before and it is a happy coincidence that we detected the kind of emission that Menzel suggested, in one of the planetary nebulae that he discovered."
This kind of laser emission needs very dense gas close to the star. Comparison of the observations with models found that the density of the gas emitting the lasers is around ten thousand times denser than the gas seen in typical planetary nebulae and in the lobes of the Ant Nebula itself.
Normally, the region close to the dead star - close in this case being about the distance of Saturn from the Sun - is quite empty, because its material is ejected outwards. Any lingering gas would soon fall back onto it.
Co-author Prof Albert Zijlstra, from the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics at University of Manchester, added: "The only way to keep such dense gas close to the star is if it is orbiting around it in a disc. In this nebula, we have actually observed a dense disc in the very centre that is seen approximately edge-on. This orientation helps to amplify the laser signal.
"The disc suggests there is a binary companion, because it is hard to get the ejected gas to go into orbit unless a companion star deflects it in the right direction. The laser gives us a unique way to probe the disc around the dying star, deep inside the planetary nebula."
Astronomers have not yet seen the expected second star, hidden in the heart of the Ant nebula.
Göran Pilbratt, ESA's Herschel project scientist, added: "It is a nice conclusion that it took the Herschel mission to connect together Menzel's two discoveries from almost a century ago."
The paper's publication coincides with the first UNESCO International Day of Light, and celebrates the anniversary of the first successful operation of the laser in 1960 by physicist and engineer, Theodore Maiman.
The Mystery Behind The ‘Best’ UFO Sighting In Space: The Gemini IV UFO
The Mystery Behind The ‘Best’ UFO Sighting In Space: The Gemini IV UFO
During the Gemini IV mission, astronauts James McDivitt and Ed White circled the Earth 66 times and leaving a mark in history as the first multi-day space flight by the United States. During the mission, the astronauts photographed a mysterious, cylindrical-shaped object which is hailed by many authors as one of the best UFO images ever taken.
In June of 1965, Brigadier General, James McDivitt, the commander on the Gemini IV mission and Ed White pilot of the Gemini IV took part in the first multi-day space flight by the United States, designed to show that it was possible for humans to remain in space for extended lengths of time.
The Gemini IV mission was the SECOND manned spaceflight in NASA’s Project Gemini and was the tenth manned American Spaceflight.
For a period of four days, Astronauts James McDivitt and Ed White circled the Earth 66 times. The mission marked the first spacewalk ever performed by an American astronaut. Ed White floated free outside the Gemini spacecraft—tethered to it—for around 20 minutes.
In addition to the above, the Gemini IV mission was also one of the very first space missions by NASA in which a number of scientific experiments were performed in space. Astronauts James McDivitt and Ed White used a sextant to investigate the use of celestial navigation for lunar flight in the Apollo program.
However, the mission would later also become famous because of a strange image snapped by astronaut James McDivitt, as the Gemini spacecraft was orbiting our planet.
The Gemini 4 UFO
Millions of people around the globe claim to have witnessed strange things in the sky.
Today, if we make a quick search on Youtube, we will find countless videos and images of alleged unidentified flying objects, that promise to offer the ultimate evidence of alien visitations on Earth.
But despite this ample material evidence, the truth remains a profound enigma.
If we are to look for UFO sightings, and potential evidence of an ‘alien presence’ on Earth, then the best and most reputable people we ought to ask these questions to are probably Astronauts.
There are dozens of reports associating Astronauts with UFO encounters. Whether we take a look at NASA’s Apollo missions, or those predating Apollo, it seems we always end up digging up something worthy of mention.
Many UFO experts claim how one of the best images of a UFO was taken precisely during the Gemini IV mission when astronaut James McDivitt, command pilot of the two-man Gemini IV spacecraft photographed something in low orbit around Earth.
This image, according to an article by UFO Evidence even baffled the super-skeptical Condon Committee in 1969; a photograph from his flight has been widely hailed as one of the “best UFO photos ever made.”
But despite the fact that many authors consider the image snapped by McDivitt as one of the best UFO images out there, the former NASA astronaut never made much of his sightings, suggesting that he saw some unidentified but still man-made piece of orbital debris.
NASA has always remained skeptical about the sighting of strange objects like the one snapped by McDivitt. In fact, NASA insisted that there was nothing at all mysterious about the object snapped by the former astronaut and that it was clearly terrestrial in origin, and most likely belonged to either the Americans or Soviets.
Some skeptics even suggested that it may have been McDivitt’s booster rocket.
Here’s McDivitt’s account of his UFO, as he summarized it on the Dick Cavett Show in November 1973 (as reported in FATE magazine, June 1974), “I was flying with Ed White. He was sleeping at the time, so I don’t have anybody to verify my story. We were drifting in space with the control engines shut down, and all the instrumentation off (when) suddenly (an object) appeared in the window. It had a very definite shape — a cylindrical object — it was white — it had a long arm that stuck out on the side. I don’t know whether it was a very small object up close or a very large object a long ways away.”
“There was nothing to judge by. I don’t know how big it was. We had two cameras that were just floating in the spacecraft at the time, so I grabbed one and took a picture of (the object) and grabbed the other and took a picture. Then I turned on the rocket control systems because I was afraid we might hit it. At the time we were drifting — without checking I have no idea which way we were going — but as we drifted up a little farther the sun shone on the window of the spacecraft.”
“The windshield was dirty — just like in an automobile, you can’t see through it. So I had the rocket control engines going again and moved the spacecraft so that the window was in darkness again — the object was gone.”
“I called down later and told them what had happened, and they went back and checked their records of other space debris that was flying around, but we were never able to identify what it could have been. The film was sent back to NASA and reviewed by some NASA film technicians. One of them selected what he thought was what we talked about, at least before I had a chance to review it. It was not the picture — it was a picture of a sun reflection on the window.”
The Gemini 4 UFO and images of the USS Trepang
Curiously, in 2015, a number of images appeared on the internet that were allegedly snapped by the USS Trepang.
The images allegedly show a mysterious, unidentified object which, according to a number of UFO researchers eerily resembles the alleged UFO photographed by James McDivitt, during the Gemini IV mission.
The images of the UFO snapped by the USS Trepang SSN 674 were taken in March 1971.
The images made available thanks to John Greenewald from “The Black Vault” and Alex Mistretta are full Page Scans from “Top Secret Magazine.”
You can find the original scans, thanks to Reddit user SquizCat.
Some authors argue how the object seen by the crew of the USS Trepang SSN 674 are similar to the object snapped in space by the Gemini IV crew, raising questions whether there is a possibility that astronauts James McDivitt and Ed White actually saw the same object in space.
While a long-term settlement on Mars could be an exciting endeavor, sustaining life there will be difficult — and that’s putting it lightly, a cognitive scientist tells Inverse.
A study published in the June edition of Futures reports that reproducing on the red planet could present numerous medical challenges. The team of researchers, based at the University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszów, Poland, says the only way to successfully create a Mars settlement would be to genetically alter our bodies.
Since Mars has an extremely thin atmosphere — about 100 times thinner than Earth’s — cosmic radiation is a much larger concern on the red planet than it is here. Earth’s magnetic field protects us from solar wind and high-energy space particles that could cause us harm. No such shield exists on Mars, which could cause issues in fetal development.
“The biggest challenges for human reproductive biology are caused by [a] specific space environment including microgravity during the long journey to Mars, cosmic rays (the biggest during the journey but also high exposure to cosmic radiation just on Mars) and extremely high bone loss (caused mostly by microgravity),” the study’s lead author Konrad Szocik, a cognitive scientist, tells Inverse. “Radiation will be a big challenge for human reproduction, beginning from effective fertilization.”
Artist's rendition of a SpaceX capsule flying by Mars.
Radiation and decreased gravity on Mars could indeed make human reproduction much more dangerous. On Earth, radiation exposure can be seriously harmful to fetuses and can impact brain development, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). One could assume that the Martian environment could affect embryonic development and/or reproductive cells in a much more intense way.
“Radiation is known to be deleterious for adults and especially for reproductive cells, developing embryos and fetuses, and is already considered a major health hazard to astronauts,” the team writes.
Besides building an intricate, underground system of tunnels to protect us all from radiation, there doesn’t appear to be many options left for a long-term settlement on Mars. And while it might sound very sci-fi — as all of this does, really — the researchers suggest changing our bodies to be better suited for Mars.
“The method of CRISPR makes possible adaptive genetic engineering,” the team writes. “We should consider the idea of genetic human enhancement before and during that mission. Genetic engineering and deep-space isolation can result in speciation of Homo Sapiens. In such a scenario, new ethical challenges arise from the evolution of a new kind of human species who will possess a new nature and, consequently, possibly new moral duties and rights when compared with people living on Earth.”
That’s pretty heavy, especially considering we don’t (yet) have the technology to upgrade our bodies like iPhones. While this work isn’t a guide on how to build a Martian settlement, it does raise valid questions on how to keep one relatively healthy and sustainable.
