UFO boven Friesland

Foto Carolien de Boer-Wolf Sneek

Nee, een UFO was het natuurlijk niet maar het was wel een verschijnsel dat met deze uitmuntende kwaliteit niet vaak wordt waargenomen. Wat we zien is onschuldig maar zeer mooi. Dus geen UFO, tornado, of ander noodweer, maar een onschuldige wolk die als het ware zijn ei niet kwijt kan, of beter gezegd zijn kop.

Wat zien we?

Collega Wilfred Janssen en ik kwamen eigenlijk allebei tot dezelfde conclusie. We zien hier een forse stapelwolk die wil doorgroeien naar hogere sferen. Dat lukt echter niet omdat er een inversie aanwezig is. Dit is een warme luchtlaag boven een koude luchtlaag. Lucht kan opstijgen zolang de omgevingslucht kouder is, maar als de omgevingslucht warmer wordt lukt dit niet meer.

Anneke Janson, Sandfjirden (Friesland)

Op de foto's is te zien dat er al over heel het gebied een dunne laag bewolking aanwezig was die 'onder' de inversie hangt.  Deze grijze laag bewolking noemen we stratocumulus.

"Eigenlijk zien we een wolk die zijn ei niet kwijt kan, of beter gezegd, zijn kop niet kwijt kan."

Raymond Klaassen

Naast deze lage bewolking was er plaatselijk ook een sterke opwaartse stroming aanwezig. Dat is feitelijk het centrum van de ronde wolk, de pannenkoek. Als er geen inversie was geweest was dit een grote stapelwolk geworden of misschien wel een bui. De opwaartse luchtstroom botst ook tegen de inversie (de warme luchtlaag) en wordt naar buiten afgebogen.

De luchtstromen in de top van de wolk

Subsidentie leidt tot opklaringen

De stijgende lucht botst dus deze tegen de inversie aan. De lucht stroomt horizontaal weg vanuit het centrum van de opwaartse beweging en begint verderop uiteindelijk weer te dalen. Tijdens dit dalende proces (subsidentie) warmt de lucht iets op en lossen de wolken op. Dit is precies wat er gebeurt aan de rand van de wolk. Op de foto's zien we het streepje blauwe lucht rondom de wolk en hierdoor ontstaat het spectaculaire aangezicht. Het lijkt wel een beetje op een platgeslagen buienwolk. In jargon een Cumulonimbus waarvan het aambeeld niet op 10 tot 15 km aanwezig, maar op stratocumulusniveau, 3 tot 5 km hoogte.

Iedereen hartelijk dank voor al de foto's die we hebben mogen ontvangen van dit weersverschijnsel. Meer foto's zijn te zien op onze foto-pagina's.

WAT GEBEURT ER IN AMERIKA MET AFGEPAKTE KINDEREN VAN IMMIGRANTE? ( VIDEO )

In just a few days from now, the 2018 Dulce Base UFO Conference will be held at Dulce, New Mexico. There will, of course, be a great deal of debate and conversation on the town’s legend: namely, that deep below Dulce’s Archuleta Mesa there exists a huge, fortified “alien base” where all sorts of horrific experimentation is undertaken on untold numbers of people. By who? By hostile aliens, that’s who. The stories range from the fairly down to earth to the downright paranoid. It should be noted, though, that in his 2005 book, Project Beta, Greg Bishop made a very persuasive case that much of the story was created/fabricated by (a) counterintelligence experts in the U.S. military and (b) those skilled in the field of creating and disseminating disinformation.

Back in the 1970s, Paul Bennewitz – who died in 2003, in Albuquerque, New Mexico – had his own company that stood adjacent to Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico. Its name was Thunder Scientific. On occasion, Bennewitz had seen – late at night and in the early hours of the morning – strange, unidentified objects flying over Kirtland Air Force Base and the nearby, huge Manzano Mountains. They could have been early drone-like craft. But, for Bennewitz they were alien craft.

Bennewitz’s head spun: he came to believe that aliens were in league with the U.S. Air Force, and that much of the secret program was run out of Kirtland. While one school of thought suggests that Bennewitz was indeed tracking the movements of UFOs in the skies over Kirtland, another suggests that Bennewitz had actually stumbled on tests of new and radical aircraft, and additional advanced technologies of a terrestrial kind. It’s this latter angle/theory that Greg Bishop addresses chiefly in his book.

In ingenious fashion – but from the perspective of Bennewitz, in terrible fashion – a plot was initiated to, in essence, give Bennewitz exactly what he wanted to hear. So, with that in mind, well-placed government agents, intelligence operatives, and experts in the fields of counterintelligence and disinformation, all fed Bennewitz fictitious tales of dangerous ETs, of thousands of people abducted and mind-controlled in slave-like fashion by the aliens, of terrible experiments undertaken on people held below the Dulce base, and of a looming confrontation between the human race and the deadly creatures from another galaxy.

With his mind and research diverted to Dulce – and, most importantly from the perspective of the government, away from the classified programs at Kirtland Air Force Base – Bennewitz became more and more paranoid and finally had a nervous collapse. He kept a low profile after that, his research largely over. But, the story isn’t quite over.

More than a decade before Bennewitz came to believe the awful rumors of Dulce were true, the U.S. Government alreadyhad a stake in the area and its surroundings. A contingent from the Atomic Energy Commission headed into town and set up what was called Project Gasbuggy. It was a sub-project of a much bigger project called Plowshare. The plan was to detonate – way below ground – a small nuclear device, as a means to try and extract natural gas. The operation went ahead on December 10, 1967 – and it worked well. The bomb was detonated at a depth of more than 4,000 feet.

Years later, certain figures in the UFO field suggested that the natural gas scenario was a cover for something else. You may already see where this is all going. There is an enduring belief within certain factions of Ufology that the nuke was actually used, by a panicked government, to try and wipe out the alien base and the extraterrestrials said to live deep within it. Even to this day it is illegal to dig in certain areas around Dulce, on the orders of the Atomic Energy Commission.

Moving on, from 1975 to 1979, the town of Dulce was hit by numerous cattle mutilations: black helicopters soared across the skies of town by night – and sometimes, and incredibly, in complete silence. Strange lights were seen flitting around Dulce’s huge Archuleta Mesa. Cows were found with organs removed and blood drained from their corpses. The incisions looked as if they were the work of lasers.

For those who might find all of this to be just too incredible, it’s worth noting that the FBI was heavily involved in the investigation of the mutilations at Dulce and has now placed its files on the mystery on their website, The Vault. It’s a file that reads like science-fiction (but it isn’t…)and that runs to more than 100 pages.  Many of the incidents were investigated by the late Police Officer Gabe Valdez of Espanola. The FBI summarized Valdez’ theories as follows:

QUOTE: “Information furnished to this office by Officer Valdez indicates that the animals are being shot with some type of paralyzing drug and the blood is being drawn from the animal after an injection of an anti-coagulant. It appears that in some instances the cattle’s legs have been broken and helicopters without any identifying numbers have reportedly been seen in the vicinity of these mutilations.

“Officer Valdez theorizes that clamps are being placed on the cow’s legs and they are being lifted by helicopter to some remote area where the mutilations are taking place and then the animal is returned to its original pasture. The mutilations primarily consist of removal of the tongue, the lymph gland, lower lip and the sexual organs of the animal.

“Much mystery has surrounded these mutilations, but according to witnesses they give the appearance of being very professionally done with a surgical instrument, and according to Valdez, as the years progress, each surgical procedure appears to be more professional. Officer Valdez has advised that in no instance, to his knowledge, are these carcasses ever attacked by predator or scavenger animals, although there are tracks which would indicate that coyotes have been circling the carcass from a distance. Special Agent Putman then informed the Director of the outcome of Valdez’s run-ins with officials.

“He also advised that he has requested Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory to conduct investigation for him but until just recently has always been advised that the mutilations were done by predatory animals. Officer Valdez stated that just recently he has been told by two assistants at Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory that they were able to determine the type of tranquilizer and blood anti-coagulant that have been utilized.” END OF QUOTE

Putman then demonstrated to headquarters the astonishing scale of the mutilation puzzle, according to Valdez: “Officer Valdez stated that Colorado probably has the most mutilations occurring within their State and that over the past four years approximately 30 have occurred in New Mexico. He stated that of these 330, 15 have occurred on Indian Reservations but he did know that many mutilations have gone unreported which have occurred on the Indian reservations because the Indians, particularly in the Pueblos, are extremely superstitious and will not even allow officers in to investigate in some instances. Officer Valdez stated since the outset of these mutilations there have been an estimated 8,000 animals mutilated which would place the loss at approximately $1,000,000.”

So, where do things stand with the “Dulce Base?” Well, I’ll tell you. Today, there are a lot of rumors, not one of which has ever provided hard, undeniable proof that such an underground installation really exists. But, that the area has been a hotbed of very weird activity of the “mute” kind (and particularly in the 1970s), and that underground detonations occurred in the area, certainly makes it understandable why Dulce and its surroundings are interesting to ufologists. Unfortunately, for those who are absolutely sure that such a facility does exist below Dulce, “interesting” is about as good as it gets, right now. Unless you know better…

Science fiction is full of tales of malevolent alien races who invade Earth in an attempt to enslave, annihilate, or assimilate the human race. In most of these, ragtag bands of human survivors band together to bravely fight off these invaders and reclaim our home planet through sheer bravery and a little help from Bill Pullman.

While it’s nice to imagine that the indelible human spirit might be able to save us from extraterrestrial conquerors, the fact is that if any hypothetical alien races are advanced enough to launch a large-scale invasion on Earth, we’re probably boned from them start. Luckily, we may have a bargaining chip that we could use to bribe our way out of becoming pets for unfathomably terrifying alien masters: our own DNA.

That sobering idea was proposed this month by Daniel Helman, professor of Labor Relations and Trade Unions at Ton Duc Thang University in Vietnam. Helman gave a presentation at the International Space Development Conference in Los Angeles arguing that since any advanced alien race would view our technology and commodities as inferior, our genetic material might be the most valuable thing we have to trade for our lives.  “Our environment is unique, hence the genetics of all the organisms here and in the solar system are unique,” Helman argues.

Trading our own DNA would also ensure that the human race, even in test tube form, would survive any natural or man-made catastrophes which might render our planet lifeless. Helman also notes that viewing DNA as a tradable commodity in this way also serves as a “utilitarian reason to promote biodiversity” here on Earth. If there are such things as intergalactic zoosfilled with wondrous creatures from every corner of the universe – another popular theme in science fiction – the DNA of all of the other lifeforms here on Earth might be valuable as well.

Ah, the little critters of nature. They don’t know that they’re ugly.

Still, the idea isn’t sitting well among other academics who study potential human-alien interactions. Some argue that trading our DNA could make us vulnerable to genetically engineered weaponized diseases specific to our genetic code, or even make human life on Earth expendable in the eyes of superior alien races who might be able to clone new races of better humans elsewhere.

What would Bill Pullman do?

When we watch sci-fi products like Independence Day or The X-Files, we do so with the expectation that flying saucers and aliens are on the cards. Sometimes, however, UFOs show up in the movies and TV shows you’d least expect. I used to watch quite a bit of The West Wing, which ran on HBO between 1999 and 2006. And when I say, “quite a bit,” I mean I’ve seen every episode of all seven seasons at least twice (hey, it’s addictive). I was struck when watching this White House-set political drama that, among its serious thematic preoccupations of domestic and foreign policy, the subject of UFOs was occasionally and somewhat jarringly thrown into the mix.

The UFO issue features peripherally in a number of episodes spread across several seasons. Predictably, the tone of The West Wing’s UFO discussions is light-hearted, and the scenes in question rely on genre stereotypes, particularly the nerdy and obsessive UFO enthusiast, played in the show by Sam Lloyd in the role of Bob Engler. In one episode, in a meeting with Deputy White House Communications Director Sam Seaborn (Rob Lowe), Engler, a dweebish employee of US Space Command, insists that a fresh UFO tracking report be presented immediately to the President on the grounds of national security. Seaborn swiftly and disparagingly dismisses his request: “No… because the President will either yell at me or laugh at me…” Seaborn then goes on to imply that Engler should seek therapy. Still, the UFO info that Engler imparts to Seaborn quietly rattles the cocksure White House staffer. It is only at the end of the episode that Seaborn’s fears are allayed when Martin Sheen’s heroic President Bartlett casually reveals to his staff in the Oval Office that NORAD had tracked not a flying saucer that day but merely a piece of soviet space junk.

In further episodes, we get casually dismissive references to the government “covering-up aliens in New Mexico,” and to the apparently alarming percentage of young Americans who believe in UFOs. In one episode, Bob Engler of US Space Command makes a return appearance, insisting to Sam Seaborn that the government is storing an alien spacecraft in the bullion depository at Fort Knox. You get the idea. And now, thanks to the time and effort of UFO researcher Giuliano Marinkovic, you can view all the West Wing UFO references in one handy video compilation.

It is always of interest to me how the UFO topic is presented in “non-UFO” products, i.e., “serious” dramas, or products outside the worlds of sci-fi and fantasy. In our “real” world—the world of official culture—UFOs have yet to be formally acknowledged as an ontological reality with serious scientific and political implications. This is reflected in most real-world-set movies and TV shows, in which UFOs are the stuff of casual banter, and belief in them is a useful signifier of a character’s mental state.

Perhaps, in the not too distant future, as we learn more about the phenomenon, Hollywood will see fit to more thoughtfully incorporate the UFO subject into its non-genre products. Until then, we’ll have to continue to make do with throw-away lines about little green men, tinfoil hats, and deep-frozen aliens at Fort Knox.

On June 18, 2018 the witness who lives in Harrogate, GB went out for a cigarette and had a strange feeling to look up.

At first glance it just appears to be clouds but the shape just seems too perfect and it was fairly windy at the time with the clouds moving quickly past but the object just stayed still.

The witness had an uneasy feeling and that’s what prompted him to take photos.

He said that would have got video too but his Iphone has seen better days and video is not working anymore. The photographer has submitted the three impressive images of the cloaked UFO to Mufon case 92772.

Aevum's New Rocket-Drone Airplane Duo Could Launch Satellites Every 3 Hours

"The typical turn time, from landing to takeoff, for a commercial aircraft can range from 30 to 80 minutes," said Skylus, an aerospace engineer who worked at NASA and Boeing. "Ravn operates just like a commercial aircraft would."

Aevum is focused on launching multitudes of tiny satellites into space. Such constellations of satellites could enable advances such as "wireless internet everywhere," Skylus said.

The key to Ravn's planned launch rate is its unmanned nature, which "simplif[ies] ground operations considerably," Skylus said. "Ravn takes off and lands horizontally on any standard runway. Ravn is engineered to be autonomous from the moment it leaves the hangar from taxi, takeoff, launch, landing and taxi return to the hangar."

As such, Ravn may need a ground crew of as few as six people, Skylus said. "Compared to the ground- crew needs of other launch systems, Ravn requires at least an order of magnitude less ground-crew personnel," he said. 

Aevum isn't the first company to develop an air-launch system. Northrop Grumman's Pegasus rocket has lofted dozens of satellites, and Stratolaunch Systems and Virgin Orbit are both working on rocket-carrier plane duos of their own. But these other systems all employ piloted aircraft.

The first stage of Ravn consists of a reusable, fully autonomous unmanned aircraft system designed for atmospheric flight. "The overall aerodynamic design of the vehicle has been optimized for the rocket separation," Skylus said. "The maximum speed of the Ravn first stage is Mach 2.85 [2,186 mph, or 3,519 km/h]." 

This aircraft carries an expendable two-stage rocket engineered for spaceflight. The first stage of this rocket uses a proprietary fuel approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation, while the second stage relies on liquid oxygen. "The rocket engines have already been hot-fire demonstrated," Skylus said.

Skylus was inspired to ramp up the rate of satellite launches when he came across a story of U.S. soldiers killed in action in Afghanistan in 2005.

"With my own brother serving in the U.S. Army and away from home during that time, the news felt personal to me," Skylus said. "Upon research, I gained insight that communication failure was partly responsible for the losses we suffered in Afghanistan. I recall being furious that, while I could instant-message readily, people who were fighting to protect our country struggled with communication challenges."

"Determined to figure out exactly why, I dug into communication technologies and found out that, in locations where geography is the limiting factor, the communication technologies were not necessarily faulty. We just needed better satellite-revisit times and positioning — more satellites," Skylus said. "However, the cost of deploying those satellite assets was stifling progress."

In flight simulations, "Minnie, Aevum's autonomous flight software, has already completed nearly 640 flights," Skylus said. This work included the successful simulated launch "of a 30-satellite constellation in less than 3 hours," he added.

Aevum has designed, built and tested both its aerodynamic components and a prototype unmanned aircraft system. "Aevum's currently building a proto-flight Ravn vehicle and aims to complete the ground qualification of the entire proto-flight Ravn vehicle this year," Skylus said.

Aevum's customers can use the company's web app or call or email to deliver their cargo. In this sense, Aevum wants to be "the UPS or FedEx of space," Skylus said. "We take care of all the logistics and offer mission design at no cost to you, and you can book launches and track your satellite through our app."

Aevum is working toward beginning flight testing in 2019. If the entire flight test campaign goes according to plan, Aevum has three launches planned for the fourth quarter of 2019, Skylus said. "We're always seeking to connect with more customers — there's still some capacity on these three launches," he said.

"Ravn is unlike any other launch system known today," Skylus said. "Aevum's focused on providing a delivery service that will directly enable the solutions that address global challenges that cause pain every day, which include communication and connectivity."

Skylus described Aevum's work on June 2 at the Dawn of Private Space Science symposium in New York.

What If We Are The First Civilization?

What if we actually do inhabit a Universe where life, at least complex life is unbelievably rare. So rare that in the immense dark fathoms of deep time, with near infinite real estate, intelligent life arose exactly once. Us. There is no pantheon of intergalactic minds. “We’re first” is one of the three classes of answers to the Fermi Paradox, the other two being “we’re rare” and “we’re fucked.”

If Wakanda can stay hidden, could a past civilization have escaped discovery?

(© 2017 - Disney/Marvel Studios)

Few scientists I’ve spoken to take “we’re first” answers seriously. It seems statistically unlikely; the Galaxy is filled with planets very much like ours orbiting stars very much like ours, and this planet is actually about two billion years younger than average in our galaxy, giving plenty of other places a considerable head start on developing life.

I tend to agree with that understanding but what if? What if it is not true.

What if we are the first? The first (and so oldest) aliens, the first in the time stream who will time travel or the first in the universe who will discover interstellar travel. This would explain why there have not been visitors from the future because we are the very first to invent the time machine and do that. I love author Larry Niven’s thoughts on this: If time travel is possible, the universe will keep being changed (by time-travellers) until a state is reached where time travel is never invented. That universe will not change. And we’re living in it.

It would also explain why we haven’t seen aliens, maybe it’s because WE are the first “aliens” to travel interstellar and colonize the galaxy, only to discover other species who are just a couple million or a couple of thousand years behind us.

I think people (scientists are just people who know science) tend to dismiss the “we’re first” position too easily because it seems born out of hubris, wishful thinking, dreams of exceptionalism, or religious nonsense.

I can see a more plausible scenario, goes like this:

• Resources needed to sustain a growing population are always limited to the planet the species is on. Space exploration is great, but it will not produce the additional water, air, carbon dioxide or space needed to grow.
• Technology consumes resources, as does population growth.
• Societies like ours that are dedicated to growth and consumption eventually deplete their resources and vanish. That kind of conscious, then, might well be deemed an aberration, cosmically speaking.
• That tendency is clearly due to a particular kind of “consciousness” that humans have evolved. But rather than being an unequivocally good thing, that kind of consciousness may ultimately be self-defeating.
• Societies that thrive are those that learn to live in a mildly-adjusted “harmony” with nature–or homeostasis, really–where they are not taking more from the environment than they are giving back.
• A population that is living in that manner (whether consciously, as we know of consciousness), or in a more automatic way, like other species on this planet) do not (or unable to) do much in the way of space exploration or technology development–and in any case they are liable to be limited to a relatively small area, given the size of the universe.
• So there are likely to be a relatively large number of planets containing life that have never ventured out looking for others.
• Of those that have ventured out, their “visitation possibilities” are extremely limited.
• Any such visitation would probably be limited to say, a probe containing automated-interaction systems of some kind. The best design would probably limit the probe’s life to 1,000 years, at most. (Even were it totally self-sustaining, jungle overgrowth, earthquakes, and other natural disasters would inevitably overtake it, in time.) Or it might touch down, stay a few years, and then move on. Either way, any such contact would be fleeting and ephemeral, recorded only in myth and legend.
• Any records of such contact would be irretrievably lost by a species such as ours, with the kind of consciousness that goes around burning each other’s libraries on the theory that if what they say is in our religious texts, they’re redundant, and if not, they’re heretical.

But let’s consider the alternatives. If intelligence is common in the Universe, we would have seen signs. Even with interstellar distances what they are, some narcissistic and evangelical civilization would have sent, at the very least, unmanned probes to other stars to bring knowledge of their existence and/or spread their knowledge and principles. There’s no reasonable counter-argument; even if most civilizations destroy themselves before they reach that stage, it is hugely unlikely that all would. Even if most civilizations prefer navel-gazing, it is hugely unlikely that all would.

So intelligence is not common (the only other possibility is that we are under some sort of pointless quarantine). It is really not hard to believe this rarity. It took more than a billion years since life evolved for intelligence to arise. Our Galaxy has roughly 100,000,000,000 stars. If only 1 in 1,000 has planets with conditions to make life possible, and life only starts in 1 out of 1,000 potential incubators, and intelligence only arises in 1 out of 1,000 cases where life starts, well, that makes 100 intelligent civilizations arising in the Galaxy at some point. Say the propensity to self-destruct or navel-gaze accounts for 95% of them (not that unlikely)–now it’s not that hard to begin that of the remaining handful we may be either the first or far enough away for expanding probes of the others to not have reached us.

What about the other 100,000,000,000 galaxies? Here, distances are so immense that almost certainly nobody would attempt to travel or communicate. We can’t know if we’re first. We know we’re rare. So if we self-destruct, it will be a real pity…

Bottom line: The probability that is life out there is enormous. That probability that it evolved technology (and still exists) is very much smaller. The probability that they are within hailing distance is smaller yet. The probability that any such “hailing” would be recognized, and then remembered, is smaller still.

For all of you that don’t know, the Bermuda triangle is defined by three points: Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico. Any of its sides stretches about thousand miles and besides all the obvious evidence that it exists, the US Navy says that there is no such thing as Bermuda triangle.

However, there is numerous evidence that proves its existence and the great and supernatural things that are hiding underneath the water. Some even believe that this triangle is the existing proof of the extraterrestrial activity on our Planet yet some choose to stay blind.

There are people that don’t believe the existence of Bermuda triangle even though it had been swallowing up ships and airplanes and even water.

The latest and most interesting thing that has been discovered at the Bermuda triangle are two beautiful and mesmerizing pyramids made out of glass. Also, there was a great technology, a great mystery for modern science revealed underneath the ocean of the triangle.

Unfortunately, the army has stopped researching this place and never got to understand what is really happening underneath.

This well-known oceanographer Mayer Verlag,  believes that the discovery of the two glass pyramids have shed light on all those missing airplanes and ships which is why the US Navy tries to hide what was discovered and keep it away from the public.

These pyramids are located right in the center of the Bermuda triangle and they are made of some form of crystal which may be the reason why there are disappearances right where they are located.

Today the truth about the existence and the importance of these pyramids is not yet proven to be wrong or right because the Us Navy tries to hide it all away from the eyes of the public. There were many researchers that tried to discover if there is something underneath the Bermuda triangle and most of them have found anomalous structures made out of crystals which were the cause of all the disappearances.

When it comes to the Pyramids, there are now photographs or actual proof that they exist yet it is believed that they are twice as big as the Pyramids of Giza.

After this very important discovery, the Us Military marked the area under their control and no other researchers or oceanographers can investigate and prove their theories.

However, if there is nothing there underneath the Bermuda triangle, why would the Us Military protect the zone and keep it under their control? Maybe they are protecting something truly valuable and some kind of “alien” technology that is far more advanced than today’s modern science.

Which leads to the point that it is up to you if you believe or not these mysterious discoveries even though there are no hard evidence that proves what is really going on underneath the Bermuda triangle?

If all this is true, then the conversations between the astronauts and the Command Center become understandable too.

Ten years after, one of the creators of the radio apparatus for an expedition to the Moon, Maurice Chatelain, confessed that he was a witness to the previously mentioned radio conference.

He said that the radio session Armstrong was talking about mysterious cosmic ships which have come to rest on the crater’s periphery.

The transmission was heard by many radio amateurs because somehow, Edwin Aldrin managed to lead the transfer.

The commander of Apollo 11, in a way, confessed that they have seen something weird. However, he dodged to give a proper answer.

The truth is that almost every astronaut on the mission was part of the Military Air Forces and they were aware of the Ministry of Defence’s rule:

 “The military members spreading any UFO information are subjected to The Espionage Act”.

Violation of the rule brings with up to ten years in prison and $10,000 fine.  And that is why they didn’t speak.

In the fall of 1973, NASA Chief Information Officer received a formal notice: “During the cosmic flights in the Apollo program, astronauts noticed the objects whose origin is hard to explain.”

In 1968, during their flight, the Apollo 8’s crew who first flew around the Moon, saw two unknown different objects in the shape of a disk and caught a radio transmission in an unknown language.

Two dazzling UFO’s followed Apollo 12 too. With the help of telescopes, it was observed they were flying in the front and in the back. The astronauts informed the Command Center as soon as they noticed them, but they said: “Good, we will consider them as friendly objects.”

There is an impression that the whole terrestrial cosmic program was under control of unknown reasonable force, and the Heads of the states likely knew about it, state the Russians.

Namely, he materialized the extraterrestrial world with electronic creatures which will have succeeded their original masters.

Rees said that the alien beings will have no connection nor resemblance with humanity. On the contrary, when they take over the world, they will even overthrow their own creators.

“My guess is that if we do detect an alien intelligence, it will be nothing like us,” he said.

The 74-year-old astronomer said that it would be “extremely unlikely” to find aliens that resemble humankind.

He defined “organic intelligence” as a “thin sliver” between the earliest degrees of life and the powerful period of machines.

Aliens are ‘ROBOTS who have overthrown masters’ Incredible claim by QUEEN’S astronomer!

Even the famous scientist Stephen Hawking has made some warnings. He mentioned the danger aliens pose to Earth if we ever reach an alien contact. He also warned about the impact artificial intelligence will have on humanity.

“My guess is that if we do detect an alien intelligence, it will be nothing like us. It will be some sort of electronic entity,” said Lord Martin Rees in an interview at Trinity College.

“In other words, the period of time occupied by organic intelligence is just a thin sliver between early life and the long era of the machines.

“Because such civilizations would develop at different rates, it’s extremely unlikely that we will find intelligent life at the same stage of development as us.”

The status of having an astronomer in the British royalty started existing in 1675 and was modeled by King Charles II. Furthermore, the royal astronomer is an official member of the Royal Household.

Lord Rees has made some warnings in the past too. He said that Earth requires an asteroid to defend humankind from a mass destruction.
